ABSTRACT
In clinical practice, we need to develop new tools to identify the residual cardiovascular risk after acute coronary syndrome (ACS). This study aimed to evaluate whether the monocyte to high-density lipoprotein cholesterol ratio (MHR) variation (ΔMHR) obtained during hospital admission (MHR1) and repeated in the first outpatient evaluation (MHR2) is a predictor of major adverse cardiovascular events (MACE) after ACS. One hundred ninety-one patients admitted for ACS were prospectively included. The ΔMHR was calculated by subtracting MHR1 from MHR2. Patients were followed for 166±38 days in which the occurrence of MACE was observed. The best cutoff for ΔMHR was zero (0), and individuals were divided into two groups ΔMHR<0 (n=113) and ΔMHR≥0 (n=78). The presence of MACE was higher in the ΔMHR≥0 (22%) than in the ΔMHR<0 (7%), with a hazard ratio (HR) of 3.96 (95% confidence interval [CI] 1.74-8.99; P=0.0004). After adjusting for confounders, ΔMHR≥0 remained an independent MACE predictor with an adjusted HR of 3.13 (95%CI 1.35-7.26, P=0.008). In conclusion, our study showed that ΔMHR was an independent MACE predictor after ACS. Thus, ΔMHR is a potential marker of residual cardiovascular risk after ACS.
