RASP, rapid angiographic stenotic progression; BMI, body mass index; CAD, coronary artery disease; DM, diabetes mellitus; LVEF, left ventricular ejection fraction; MAP, mean arterial pressure; FBG, fasting blood‐glucose; Scr, serum creatinine; SUA, serum uric acid; cTnI, cardiac troponin I; NT‐proBNP, N‐terminal probrain natriuretic peptide; TG, triglyceride; TC, total cholesterol; HDL‐C, high‐density lipoprotein cholesterol; LDL‐C, low‐density lipoprotein cholesterol; Hs‐CRP, high‐sensitivity C‐reactive protein; ESR, erythrocyte sedimentation rate; WBC, white blood cell; LAD, left anterior descending branch; LCX, left circumflex artery; RCA, right coronary artery; PCI, percutaneous coronary intervention; ACEIs/ARBs, angiotensin converting enzymes inhibitors/angiotensin receptor blockers.

Data were presented as mean value ± standard deviation, median (25th‐75th quantiles), or count (percentage). Comparison between two groups was determined by t test, Wilcoxon rank sum test, or chi‐square test. P value <0.05 was considered significant. Statistically significant values were shown in bold font.
