  • Impact of coronary collaterals on 5-year mortality was estimated by univariable and multivariable Cox regression analysis with Rentrop 0 serving as a reference. Age, gender, coronary risk factors (diabetes, hypertension, dyslipidaemia, smoking, previous myocardial infarction and angina pectoris), culprit vessel, multivessel disease, emergency percutaneous coronary intervention, ACE inhibitors, angiotensin receptor blocker, β-blocker, calcium-blocker, statin and diuretic usage were used as covariates in a multivariable model.
