Abstract
The Systemic Inflammation Response Index (SIRI) and N-terminal Pro-B-type natriuretic peptide (NT-proBNP) have been proposed as reliable predictors of poor prognosis in cardiovascular disease and all-cause mortality, However, their validity has not been extensively evaluated in patients with myocardial infarction with nonobstructive coronary arteries (MINOCA). 259 patients diagnosed with MINOCA were enrolled in this study from January 2015 to December 2022, and serum levels of SIRI and NT-proBNP were detected. The primary endpoints were major adverse cardiovascular events (MACE). According to the occurrence of MACE during the follow-up period, patients were grouped into MACE and Non-MACE groups, and divided by the median values for SIRI and NT-proBNP into groups: low SIRI, high SIRI, low NT-proBNP, and high NT-proBNP. A statistically significant difference in the levels of SIRI and NT-proBNP was observed between the MACE group and the non-MACE group. Kaplan-Meier survival curve analysis revealed that patients with high SIRI and high NT-proBNP had a significantly higher risk of MACE (log-rank P < 0.001). Furthermore, even after adjusting for covariates, the high SIRI and high NT-proBNP were associated with an increased risk of MACE (P<0.001, HR: 3.188, 95% CI 1.940-5.241; P<0.001, HR: 2.245, 95% CI 1.432-3.519). Additionally, the combined prognosis prediction of SIRI and NT-proBNP was superior to a single prediction, and adding SIRI and NT-proBNP to the traditional risk factor model improved the model's predictive value. High levels of SIRI and NT-proBNP exhibit a significant correlation with an increased risk of MACE, thereby suggesting that SIRI can be used as a reliable inflammatory indicator for predicting the risk in MINOCA patients, with significantly improved prognostic value when combined with NT-proBNP.
