§ Parameters without normally distributed (One-Way ANOVA test was used to show the differences between the three groups in continuous numeric parameters with normal distribution. Tukey's test was used for the post-hoc analysis. Kruskal-Wallis test was used for the differences between the three groups in parameters without normally distributed, if there was statistical significance the Mann-Whitney U test was used for nonpaired groups. Differences between three groups for the categorical variables were analyzed using the chi-square test.)
* p value between all groups. # p value between NSTEMI SYNTAX score ≥ 32 and NSTEMI SYNTAX score < 32 groups. † p value between NSTEMI SYNTAX score ≥ 32 and NCA groups. ‡ p value between NSTEMI SYNTAX score < 32 groups and NCA groups groups.
