Is this trial a fit for you?

Likely a good fit

Adults over 18 with a clinical diagnosis of coronary artery disease (including angina, NSTEMI, STEMI, latent disease, or ischemic cardiomyopathy) who are treated or followed at the study hospital and can provide consent.

Probably not a fit

People without coronary artery disease, those treated elsewhere who cannot be followed, or individuals unable to provide informed consent are unlikely to benefit from participation.

What this trial studies

This single-center historical prospective cohort will include adults diagnosed with coronary artery disease, including stable and unstable angina, NSTEMI, STEMI, latent disease, and ischemic cardiomyopathy. Researchers will use existing clinical records from The First Affiliated Hospital of Sun Yat-sen University to assemble the cohort and will follow outcomes over time, with primary endpoints of all-cause and cardiovascular mortality. Analyses will examine associations between established or suspected cardiovascular risk factors and mortality outcomes in this real-world clinical population. The goal is to clarify which patient characteristics are most strongly linked to long-term survival after coronary artery disease.

Why it matters

Potential benefit: If successful, the findings could help clinicians identify patients at higher risk of death and target preventive or monitoring strategies to improve outcomes.

How similar studies have gone: Previous cohort studies have successfully linked cardiovascular risk factors to mortality, so this approach is well-established rather than entirely novel.
