To the Editor, We thank the author(s) for their great interest in our work entitled “Association between platelet-to-lymphocyte ratio and saphenous vein graft disease in patients with stable angina pectoris,” which was published in the Anatolian Journal of Cardiology 2015 May 5 (1). As we mentioned in the limitation section of our paper, we included patients who had CABG surgery >1 year ago to minimize graft failure factors related to the surgery itself. We completely agree with the author(s), but we do not have sufficient data about the mean time from coronary artery bypass grafting to the last coronary angiograms because it was a retrospective study. Also, we do not have the patient’s body mass indexes because of the same reason. We believe that further prospective trials, including data on body mass index measurements and the duration between coronary artery bypass surgery and saphenous vein graft disease, would better clarify the relationship between the platelet-to-lymphocyte ratio with saphenous vein graft disease.
