Prognostic value of combining red cell distribution width with serum uric acid levels in acute coronary syndrome patients undergoing percutaneous coronary intervention / 国际检验医学杂志

ABSTRACT

Objective To evaluate the prognostic value of combing pre-procedural red cell distribution width(RDW)with serum uric acid(SUA)levels in patients with acute coronary syndrome(ACS)undergoing percutaneous coronary intervention(PCI).Meth-ods A total of 1 52 consecutive patients with ACS who underwent successful PCI within 12 hours after onset of symptom were en-rolled.RDW and SUA were determined within 12 hours before PCI.The patients were divided into 3 groups according to the cut-off values showed by receiver operating characteristic(ROC)curve:73 cases in group I,RDW14.5% and SUA>402 μmol/L.The pre-procedural RDW and SUA status associated with 30 days any cause mortality and major adverse combined cardiac events including revascularization,non-fatal recurrent myocardial infarction,secondary heart failure,rehos-pitalization and death were analyzed.Results Pre-procedural RDW and SUA level predicted 30 days cardiac mortality,RDW and SUA level correlated linearly(r=0.336,P =0.001).30 days major adverse combined cardiac events and any cause mortality were significantly different among the three groups(P =0.031,P =0.012).Conclusion Pre-procedural RDW≥ 14.5% and SUA≥402μmol/L indicates poor prognosis in ACS patients underwent successful PCI.Therefore the combination of RDW and SUA measure-ment should be taken into consideration for risk stratification to decide about the management strategies in ACS patients.
