Atherosclerosis and inflammation play central roles in the pathogenesis of coronary artery disease (CAD). Early identification of chronic total occlusion (CTO) in patients presenting with stable angina pectoris is clinically important for guiding treatment strategies. Therefore, evaluating the diagnostic utility of novel inflammatory and metabolic biomarkers has gained increasing relevance. This study aimed to assess the predictive value of the systemic inflammatory index (SII), uric acid/HDL ratio (UHR), monocyte/HDL ratio (MHR), and triglyceride-glucose (TyG) index for detecting the presence of CTO.
