Abstract
The aim of this study was to investigate the predictive value of the platelet-to-lymphocyte ratio (PLR) and the China Acute Myocardial Infarction registry-ST segment elevation myocardial infarction (CAMI-STEMI) score for major adverse cardiovascular events (MACE) in ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) patients undergoing percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) within 6 months.We enrolled STEMI patients who received emergency PCI in the First Hospital of Lianyungang from January 2016 to December 2019. The clinical characteristics of the patients, the PLR, and the CAMI-STEMI score were recorded. The MACE included heart failure, nonfatal re-infarction, recurrent angina pain, re-hospitalization for cardiovascular-related illness, repeat PCI, coronary artery bypass grafting, and all-cause mortality. According to the incidence of MACE during the follow-up the patients were divided into the MACE group (96 cases, 24.8%) and the non-MACE group (291 cases, 75.2%).The PLR, 147.62 (121.13–205.20) in MACE group, was 111.19 (90.23–146.42) in the non-MACE group in comparison, the PLR was higher in MACE group than that in non-MACE group (P < .01). Multivariate regression analysis showed that PLR (odds ratio (OR) = 1.007, 95% confidence interval (CI) 1.002–1.012, P < .01) and CAMI-STEMI score (OR = 1.575, 95% CI: 1.311–1.892, P < .01) were independent predictors of MACE. Besides, I-BIL was also an independent predictor of MACE (OR = 1.007, 95% CI: 1.011–1.146, P = .021). Reciever-operating characteristic curve showed that the area under curve of PLR was 0.704 (95%CI 0.644–0.763, P < .001). The cutoff value was 112.6, the sensitivity and specificity were 84.4% and 51.9%, respectively.PLR and CAMI-STEMI scores were independent risk factors of MACE after PCI in STEMI patients.
