Objectives: In this study, we aimed to investigate the value of inflammatory biomarkers and atherogenicity index in predicting concomitant

Patients and methods: A total of 257 patients (163 males, 94 females; mean age 59.2±8 years; range, 33 to 75 years) admitted to our clinic

groups according to preoperative evaluation as those without significant CAS (Group 1, n=218) and those with CAS (≥50%) (Group 2, n=39).
Results: The mean age was 55.9±7.9 in Group 1 and 65.7±9.4 in Group 2 (p
