Data are presented as mean ± standard deviation, or percentage (number). CABG, coronary artery bypass grafting; COPD, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease; LVEF, left ventricular ejection fraction; PCI, percutaneous coronary intervention; PVD, peripheral vascular disease; WBC, white blood cell. *The value of WBC are missing in 5 patients.
