Clinical Significance of On-Treatment Triglyceride Level in Patients Treated by Percutaneous Coronary Intervention for Non-ST-Segment Elevation Acute Coronary Syndrome
Kyeong Ho Yun, Ik-Sang Shin, Sang Jae Rhee, Eun Mi Lee, Nam Jin Yoo, Nam-Ho Kim, Seok Kyu Oh, Jin-Won Jeong
Korean J Intern Med. 2009;24(4):330-336. Published online November 27, 2009
