Impact of White Blood Cell Count After Percutaneous Coronary Intervention on Long-Term Prognosis in Patients with Unstable Angina Pectoris: A Single-Center Retrospective Observatio... by Zhang Z, Wang H, Wang R, She Z, Liang X, Liu H, Kou X, Wang S

“…The changes of WBC and subgroup counts before and in the early postoperative stages after PCI were observed by paired Wilcoxon signed-rank test. The Kaplan–Meier method and COX proportional regression model were used to evaluate the association between the incidence of 5-year endpoint events and post-PCI leukocytosis.Results: Leukocytosis and neutrocytosis within 24 hours after PCI were observed in majority of patients with UA, while lymphocyte count significantly decreased after PCI in those patients. …”
