ABSTRACT
Objective: To analyze the relationship between monocyte to high-density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL-C) ratio (MHR) in patients with ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction(STEMI) in order to explore the predictive value of MHR in thrombus burden level in STEMI patients. Methods: A total of 357 STEMI patients treated in our hospital from 2015-01 to 2016-12 were enrolled. Thrombus burden was confirmed by angiography and the patients were divided into 2 groups: Low thrombus burden group, n=156 and High thrombus burden group, n=201. MHR was compared between 2 groups; the predictive value of MHR in thrombus burden level was studied by multivariate Logistic regression analysis and ROC curve assessment. Results: MHR was higher in High thrombus burden group than that in Low thrombus burden group [M (Q1, Q3) 25.4 (13.5, 44.6) vs 16.0 (9.2, 22.1)], P<0.001; multivariate Logistic regression analysis indicated that MHR was the independent predictor for high thrombus burden occurrence (OR=1.067, 95％ CI 1.031-1.105), P<0.001; the area under ROC curve for MHR was 0.688 in STEMI patients. Conclusion: MHR was the independent predictor for high thrombus burden occurrence in STEMI patients.
ABSTRACT
Objective: To explore the correlation of monocyte to HDL-C ratio (MHR) and post-operative slow lfow or no relfow in patients with ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) after percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI). Methods: A total of 216 STEMI patients treated in our hospital from 2014-10 to 2016-05 were enrolled. The patients were divided into 2 groups: Slow lfow or no relfow group, the patients with TIMI grade≤2,n=43 and Normal lfow group, n=173. Receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve was performed to assess the best cut-off value for MHR predicting slow lfow or no relfow with its sensitivity and speciifcity; Logistic regression analysis was conducted to studied weather MHR could be used as an independent risk factor for coronary slow lfow or no relfow in STEMI patients after PCI. Results: Compared with Normal lfow group, Slow lfow or no relfow group had the higher MHR (18.6±9.8) vs (10.9±5.5), P<0.001. Univariate Regression analysis indicated that MHR was a risk factor of slow lfow or no relfow occurrence (OR=2.22, 95% CI 1.58-3.28); multivariate regression analysis presented that MHR was an independent risk factor of slow lfow or no relfow occurrence (OR=1.55, 95% CI 1.01-2.38). ROC curve showed that the best cut-off value for MHR predicting slow lfow or no relfow occurrence was 13.37 with the sensitivity and speciifcity at 67.4% and 70.5% respectively, the area under curve (AUC) was 0.734, 95% CI 0.646-0.822. Conclusion: MHR was an independent risk factor for slow lfow or no relfow occurrence in STEMI patients after PCI.
