Association of Non-Hdl-C-To-Hdl-C Ratio with Coronary Lesions and Its Prognostic Performance in First-Onset Nstemi

Abstract

Aim: The study sought to investigate the association of non-high-density-lipoprotein cholesterol-to-high-density-lipoprotein cholesterol ratio (NON-HDL-C:HDL-C) with coronary lesions and major adverse cardiovascular events (MACE) in first-onset non-ST-segment elevation acute myocardial infarction. Methods: A cohort of 426 patients undergoing early invasive therapy was enrolled in the final analysis. MACE included cardiac death, nonfatal myocardial infarction, target vessel revascularization, congestive heart failureand nonfatal stroke. Results: NON-HDL-C:HDL-C revealed a powerful diagnostic performance for multiple cardiovascular risk factors (p<0.05). NON-HDL-C:HDL-C was an independent predictor for severe coronary lesions and MACE (p<0.05). Subgroup analysis further examined the robustness, especially in elderly, male, dyslipidemic or nondiabetic patients. Conclusion: NON-HDL-C:HDL-C is associated with coronary lesions and prognosis in non-ST-segment elevation acute myocardial infarction.
