Comparisons of characteristics between two groups
There were 146 patients in IABP duration ≤4 days and 92 patients in IABP
duration > 4 days. Comparisons of characteristics between
the two groups were conducted and the results were presented inTable 1 . The values of age, LVEF, LDL-C, SPB, DPB were
significantly more of patients in IABP duration≤4 days than IABP
duration > 4 days. The values of SCr, WBC, RBC, UA, and
rates of cardiac shock, Killip class (more than II),STEMI, heart rate of
patients in IABP duration ≤ 4 days were significantly lower than the
IABP duration > 4 days. Patients belonging to IABP duration
≤4 days showed a lower prevalence of male and cerebral infarction as
