Objectives: In the present study, we investigated the relationship between mentioned markers and chronic total occlusion collateral development. Patients and methods: A total of 243 patients (210 males, 33 females; mean age: 63.3±11.5; range, 51 to 76 years) who underwent coronary angiography due to typical chest pain or myocardial ischemia detected in noninvasive stress tests and diagnosed with ≥1 major coronary artery occlusion between January and September 2020 were included in the cross-sectional observational study. The angiographic collateral index was determined according to the Cohen-Rentrop classification. The patients were divided into two groups according to the sufficiency of collateral development: the well-developed collaterals group (n=155) and the poor-developed collaterals group (n=88). Results: Statistically significant parameters in univariate logistic regression analysis were evaluated with multivariate (stepwise) logistic regression analysis; as a result, presence of chronic total occlusion in left anterior descending artery (odds ratio [OR]=2.447; 95% confidence interval [CI], 1.160-5.162; p=0.019), total number of occlusions (OR=3.503; 95% CI, 1.445-8.494; p=0.006), left ventricular ejection fraction (OR=1.056; 95% CI, 1.022-1.091; p=0.001), and the atherogenic index of plasma (OR=0.017; 95% CI, 1.022-1.091; p<0.001) were independently associated with well-developed collaterals. Although the triglyceride-glucose index had statistical significance in the univariate analysis, it was not detected as an independent variable in the multivariate analysis. The monocyte-lymphocyte ratio was not significant in the univariate analysis. Conclusion: Of the new atherosclerosis markers, only the atherogenic index of plasma had an independent association with poor collateral development.
