The relationship between Neutrophil-lymphocyte ratio and the severity of coronary artery disease in patients with ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction
Abstract：Objective To assess the relationship between Neutrophil-lymphocyte Ratio (NLR) and the severity of coronary artery disease.Methods STEMI patients who was undergoing angiography from August,2016 to April 2017 at Beijing Anzhen hospital were included.Gensini score was used to evaluate the severity of coronary artery disease.Receiver-operating characteristic (ROC) curve analysis was performed to determine the cut-off point of NLR to predict high GS score.Multivariate logistic regression analyses were used to identify independent predictors of high GS score in the whole study population.Results A total of 277 STEMI patients who were undergoing angiography were included.According to the median value of GS,patients were divided into two groups.Patients with higher GS(GS＞56) had a higher NLR value.And NLR value was positive correlated with GS score.The multivariate logistic analysis showed that NLR was an independent predictor of GS score.Conclusion NLR is positive related to the severity of coronary artery disease with Gensini score.And it is an independent predictor of higher GS score in STEMI patients.
