Elsayed Balbaa: Baseline Anemia Predicts Adverse 12-Month Outcomes After Elective PCI for Stable CAD
Elsayed Balbaa, Student of Alexandria University, shared a post on LinkedIn:
“A new Publication!
We found that in men undergoing first-time elective PCI for stable CAD, baseline anemia was associated with higher 12-month risks of AKI, major bleeding, need for transfusion, hospitalization, and death, especially with recent (≤ 1 year) bleeding or transfusion history.”
Mohamed R. Murad, Bachelor of Medicine, Bachelor of Surgery – MBBS at Al-Azhar University, shared a post on LinkedIn:
“Pleased to share our recent publication:
‘Prognostic Impact of Baseline Anemia on Outcomes After Elective PCI in Men: A US Retrospective Cohort Study.’
In this study, we examined the prognostic impact of baseline anemia on outcomes after elective PCI in men with stable coronary artery disease.
Our analysis incorporated survival analysis, Kaplan-Meier curves, log-rank testing, univariable and multivariable Cox proportional hazards regression, propensity score matching, falsification (negative-control) endpoint analysis, E-value sensitivity analysis, and multiple-testing adjustment using Benjamini-Hochberg and Bonferroni methods.
I’m truly happy to be part of this great work with such outstanding leaders, collaborators, and team members.
I’m deeply grateful for the guidance, dedication, and shared effort of all co-authors who contributed to this study.
Proud to contribute to research that advances clinical understanding and supports better patient care.”
