Relationship Between Monocyte to HDL-Cholesterol Ratio and Thrombus Burden in Patients With ST-segment Elevation Myocardial Infarction / 中国循环杂志

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.
