Abstract
Background: Glycated Albumin (GA) and atherogenic index of plasma (AIP) are two important biomarkers that respectively reflect lipid and glucose levels. Previous research has revealed their roles in cardiovascular diseases (CVD) and diabetes. However, their combined predictive ability in forecasting cardiovascular events (CVE) after percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) among postmenopausal acute coronary syndrome (ACS) patients remains insufficiently studied.
Methods: Based on the levels of AIP (AIP-L and AIP-H) and GA (GA-L and GA-H), four groups were used to categorize the patients. The CVE assessed included cardiac death, nonfatal myocardial infarction (MI) and nonfatal stroke. To evaluate the relationship between AIP, GA, and CVE, multivariate Cox regression analyses were performed.
Results: 98 patients (7.5%) experienced CVE during follow-up. AIP and GA were revealed as strong independent predictors of CVE through multivariate analysis (AIP: HR 3.324, 95%CI 1.732-6.365, P = 0.004; GA: HR 1.098, 95% CI 1.023-1.177, P = 0.009). In comparison to those in the initial group (AIP-L and GA-L), the fourth group (AIP-H and GA-H) of patients exhibited the greatest CVE risk (HR 2.929, 95% CI 1.206-5.117, P = 0.018). Derived from the model of baseline risk, the combination of AIP + GA significantly enhanced the AUC, meanwhile combining AIP and GA levels maximized prognostic accuracy in the baseline risk model.
Conclusions: This study found that the combined measurement of AIP and GA significantly enhanced the predictive capability for CVE following PCI in postmenopausal ACS patients. By integrating these two biomarkers, it became possible to more accurately identify high-risk individuals and provided clinicians with new predictive tools for postmenopausal ACS patients in risk assessment and management.
期刊介绍:
Lipids in Health and Disease is an open access, peer-reviewed, journal that publishes articles on all aspects of lipids: their biochemistry, pharmacology, toxicology, role in health and disease, and the synthesis of new lipid compounds.
Lipids in Health and Disease is aimed at all scientists, health professionals and physicians interested in the area of lipids. Lipids are defined here in their broadest sense, to include: cholesterol, essential fatty acids, saturated fatty acids, phospholipids, inositol lipids, second messenger lipids, enzymes and synthetic machinery that is involved in the metabolism of various lipids in the cells and tissues, and also various aspects of lipid transport, etc. In addition, the journal also publishes research that investigates and defines the role of lipids in various physiological processes, pathology and disease. In particular, the journal aims to bridge the gap between the bench and the clinic by publishing articles that are particularly relevant to human diseases and the role of lipids in the management of various diseases.
