DOI 10.18565/cardio.2016.1.51-55
Data confidence 70 medium
How this score is calculated

It is built from checkable properties of the record itself: whether the article has a DOI, how many independent sources confirmed its data, whether the required fields are filled in, and how recent the latest confirmation is. Disagreement between sources and a missing identifier lower it. A value of 80 or above means the record was published without further checking; 60 to 79 means it is published at reduced confidence, with a manual check advisable. A record verified by an editor by hand is never pushed below 90 by a recalculation. This scores our data about the article, not the article itself.

Abstract

Currently enough data has been accumulated to consider chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) as one of important factors of poor prognosis in patients with coronary artery disease, possibly producing an impact on perioperative risk during coronary artery bypass grafting surgery and percutaneous coronary interventions, as well as on long-term outcomes of these procedures. In this review we have analyzed studies which attempted to assess COPD as a factor that can affect outcomes of myocardial revascularization.
