Zusammenfassung:It is unclear whether the obesity paradox is still apparent in the new-generation drug-eluting stent (DES) era. Therefore, we assessed the impact of body mass index (BMI) on clinical outcome after percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) with new-generation DESs. A total of 5264 consecutive patients from 4 new-generation DES registries were divided into 4 categories according to BMI: 1) underweight (BMI
