Abstract
Objectives: Contemporary studies assessing the importance of the systemic immune-inflammation index (SII) in older patients presenting with acute coronary syndrome (ACS) are scarce. This study investigated the impact and prognostic value of the SII regarding long-term mortality in older patients with ACS.
Methods: The study included 401 older patients aged 75 years and above admitted with ACS between May 2015 and December 2022. Predictors of mortality were determined using multivariate Cox regression analysis. Survival curves were generated using the Kaplan-Meier method.
Results: The patients' median age was 81 (77-85) years, and 197 (49.1%) were male. The median follow-up was 23 months (Q1-Q3 : 4-43, maximum: 102). All short- and long-term deaths, including in-hospital deaths, were significantly high in patients with high SII (P = 0.001). Inflammatory variables, including C-reactive protein, SII, the neutrophil-to-lymphocyte ratio, monocyte-to-lymphocyte ratio, and platelet-to-lymphocyte ratio, were positively correlated with the SYNTAX score (for SII; R = 0.492, P = 0.001). Multivariate Cox regression analysis revealed that age [hazard ratio (HR): 1.082, 95% confidence interval (CI): 1.051-1.114, P = 0.001], estimated glomerular filtration rate (HR: 0.988, 95% CI: 0.982-0.994, P = 0.001), SII (HR: 1.004, 95% CI: 1.001-1.006, P = 0.001), and left ventricular ejection fraction (HR: 0.959, 95% CI: 0.947-0.97, P = 0.001) were independent predictors of mortality in older patients with ACS. Kaplan-Meier analysis also showed that patients with high SII had a significantly higher mortality rate (P = 0.001).
Conclusion: A high SII is an independent predictor of long-term mortality in older patients with ACS.
期刊介绍:
Coronary Artery Disease welcomes reports of original research with a clinical emphasis, including observational studies, clinical trials, translational research, novel imaging, pharmacology and interventional approaches as well as advances in laboratory research that contribute to the understanding of coronary artery disease. Each issue of Coronary Artery Disease is divided into four areas of focus: Original Research articles, Review in Depth articles by leading experts in the field, Editorials and Images in Coronary Artery Disease. The Editorials will comment on selected original research published in each issue of Coronary Artery Disease, as well as highlight controversies in coronary artery disease understanding and management.
Submitted artcles undergo a preliminary review by the editor. Some articles may be returned to authors without further consideration. Those being considered for publication will undergo further assessment and peer-review by the editors and those invited to do so from a reviewer pool.
