Results
Baseline demographic, clinical, angiographic, and echocardiographic
information was prospectively collected for all patients. There was no
statistically significant difference between both groups in the baseline
characteristics, including age, sex, BMI, hypertension, diabetes
mellitus, and dyslipidemia (Table 1). There were 23 (57.5 %) men in the
staged PCI + MVR group (Group I) and 25 (62.5 %) in the CABG + MVR
group (Group II) (P= 0.648), with a mean age of 51.1±3.2 and 52.1±4.6
years (P= 1.000), and body mass index (BMI) of 27.2 ± 1.7 and 27.3 ± 2.1
(P= 0.819), respectively. The incidence of hypertension, diabetes
mellitus, and dyslipidemia for both groups were 82.5 versus 87.5% (P=
0.531), 37.5 versus 42.5% (P= 0.648), and 77.5 versus 82.5% (P=
0.576), respectively.
