“…In addition, the statin therapy in patients with CAD may contribute to the lower rate of cancer death [ 53 ]. Similar results, a lower death rate from cancer and a higher rate of cardiovascular deaths were reported by the authors of the GENetic DEterminants of Restenosis (GENDER) study, who also compared CAD patients after elective PCI and the general population [ 54 ].…”

“…Despite previous apprehension concerning drug-eluting stents (DES), they have turned out to be safe and efficient, also in the treatment of patients with acute coronary syndromes [ 11 ]. DES have significantly limited restenosis, which potentially may improve the prognosis of patients; however, data concerning the influence of restenosis on the mortality are equivocal [ 12 , 13 ]. Nevertheless, it seems that the presence of coronary heart disease itself and its advancement are more important in the prognosis than the appearance of restenosis, which can be effectively treated today [ 13 ].…”

Nevertheless, it seems that the presence of coronary heart disease itself and its advancement are more important in the prognosis than the appearance of restenosis, which can be effectively treated today [ 13 ]. We did not evaluate the influence of the type of stent on mortality in our study.…”

“…The literature suggests that men with May 2021 574 stable coronary artery disease have similar long-term mortality to the general population, but women have a higher mortality. 41,42 This was accounted for by applying a hazard ratio of 1.39 to female life table values. Finally, we assumed that patients requiring TVR had a slightly higher risk of mortality compared with those with no events, 24 and that those with previous MI had an even greater risk of recurrent MI or death.…”
