Methods We retrospectively enrolled 237 patients who underwent elective coronary angiography (CAG) for stable angina or positive stress test results >1 year after CABG. Uric acid to albumin ratio (UAR) is a new marker which associated with cardiovascular mortality. We aim to evaluate the relationship between the SVGD and UAR.
