Background: Coronary artery tortuosity (CorT) is a prevalent angiographic finding commonly associated with aging, hypertension, atherosclerosis and other cardiovascular conditions. It has been suggested that coronary artery tortuosity causes alteration in blood flow and reduction in coronary artery pressure distal to the tortuous segment and can thus lead to ischemia. Objective: This study aimed to find the relationship between monocytes to high density lipoprotein cholesterol ratio (MHR) and is
