Trial population
Patients with coronary artery disease and CTO undergone coronary angiography at Ruijin Hospital, Shanghai, China will be consecutively enrolled.

Trial outcomes
Primary outcomes
The degree of collateral estimated visually by Rentrop score during coronary angiography
The degree of coronary collateralization supplying the distal area of the total coronary occlusion was visually graded using the Rentrop scoring system as follows: 0=no visible collaterals; 1=poorly opacified collaterals with faint visualization of the distal vessel; 2=partial filling of the collateral vessels; and 3=complete filling of the collateral vessels. Patients were then classified as poor coronary collaterals (Rentrop scores of 0 and 1) or good coronary collaterals (Rentrop scores of 2 and 3), according to the Rentrop score.
Composite event of all-cause mortality, non-fatal myocardial infarction, heart failure and repeat revascularization
Secondary outcomes
Event of all-cause mortality
Event of death from cardiac causes
Event of heart failure
The change of left ventricular ejection fraction
Other outcomes
The level of serum markers and biochemical indexes which have been reported to closely related to cardiovascular diseases and collateral formation.
