The frequency, predictors, and consequences of stent thrombosis (ST) in patients with non-ST-segment elevation acute coronary syndromes (NSTE-ACS) have been incompletely studied. We sought to investigate the incidence, predictors, and clinical implications of ST occurring within 1 year after percutaneous coronary intervention in patients with NSTE-ACS.
