  1. The definition of variables based on the American College of Cardiology/American Heart Association’s key data elements and definitions for measuring the clinical management and outcomes in patients with ACSs and coronary artery disease. BPM: beats per minute. SBP: systolic blood pressure. CK-MB: creatine kinase isoenzymes in the heart. sCr: serum creatinine. HDL-C: high-density lipoprotein cholesterol. LDL-C: low-density lipoprotein cholesterol. TRIG: triglycerides. FG: fasting glucose. PAD: peripheral arterial disease. TIA: transient ischemic attack. STEMI: ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction. LVEF: left-ventricular ejection fraction. LVEF category: 1: ≤40%; 2: 40–70%; 3: ≥70%; 4 = unknown or not assessed. PCI: percutaneous coronary intervention. CABG: coronary-artery bypass graft surgery. ACEI: angiotensin-converting enzyme inhibitor. ARB: Angiotensin receptor blocker
