Abstract：Objective To explore the correlation between remnant cholesterol level and CI-AKI in elderly patients with ACS and concomitant T2DM following PCI.Methods A retrospective case-control study was conducted on 759 elderly T2DM patients with ACS undergoing PCI in the Affi-liated Hospital of Xuzhou Medical University between January 2020 and December 2023.The pa-tients were randomly allocated into a training group(n=608)and a validation group(n=151)in a ratio of 8∶2.Based on CI-AKI diagnostic criteria,the training group was further stratified into a CI-AKI subgroup(n=95)and a non-CI-AKI subgroup(n=513).Multivariate logistic regression analysis was used to identify the independent risk factors for CI-AKI.Results The remnant cho-lesterol level was significantly higher in the CI-AKI subgroup than the non-CI-AKI subgroup[0.78(0.51,1.07)mmol/L vs 0.57(0.40,0.81)mmol/L,P＜0.01].Red blood cell count,remnant cholesterol,age,uric acid,log-transformed systemic immune-inflammatory(SII)index,and cysta-tin C were identified as independent predictors for CI-AKI in T2DM patients with ACS after PCI(P＜0.01).ROC curve analysis demonstrated that the model combining remnant cholesterol with other independent predictors exhibited superior discriminative performance in both the training group(AUC=0.818,95％CI:0.773-0.863)and validation group(AUC=0.787,95％CI:0.686-0.889)when compared to the models excluding remnant cholesterol(P＜0.01).Conclusion Rem-nant cholesterol is an independent predictor of CI-AKI in elderly patients with ACS and T2DM af-ter PCI.A risk prediction model based on remnant cholesterol and other independent risk factors demonstrates enhanced predictive performance for postoperative CI-AKI in the patients.
