Background: Recently, the systemic immune inflammatory response index (SIIRI), a novel and expanded inflammatory response marker, has been an independent predictor of lesion severity in patients with acute coronary syndrome (ACS). However, its predictive role in patients with initially diagnosed coronary artery disease (CAD) remains to be explored.Patients and Methods: We evaluated 959 patients with CAD undergoing an initial coronary intervention. Each patient had laboratory measurements, including blood cell counts, taken after admission and before interventional treatment. The primary endpoint was major cardiovascular events (MACEs), defined as cardiovascular death, nonfatal myocardial infarction(MI), and nonfatal stroke. The secondary endpoints included MACEs and readmission for congestive heart failure(HF).Results: During a mean follow-up period of 33.3± 9.9 months, 229 (23.9%) MACEs were recorded. ROC curve analysis displayed that the best cut-off value of SIIRI for predicting MACEs was 247.17*1018/L2. Kaplan-Meier survival curve analysis showed that the survival rate of the low SIIRI group was higher than that of the high SIIRI group (P< 0.001). Compared with the low SIIRI group, the high SIIRI group had a significantly higher risk of MACEs (187 cases (39.53%) vs.42 patients (8.64%), P< 0.001). Univariate and multivariate Cox regression analyses displayed that high SIIRI levels were independently associated with the occurrence of MACEs in patients with initially diagnosed CAD undergoing percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) (adjusted hazard ratio [HR]: 3.808, 95% confidence interval [CI%]: 2.643– 5.486, P< 0.001). Adding SIIRI to conventional risk factor models improved the predictive value of MACEs.Conclusion: Elevated SIIRI is associated with adverse cardiovascular prognosis in patients with initially diagnosed CAD. SIIRI can be a simple and practical index to identify high-risk patients with CAD after PCI. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Background: Systemic inflammation index (SII: neutrophil count * platelet count/lymphocyte count) is a new inflammatory marker that can reflect the degree of systemic inflammatory response after coronary artery disease (CAD). However, the predictive value of the SII for clinical prognosis in patients with initially diagnosed acute coronary syndrome (ACS) has yet to be thoroughly studied.Patients and Methods: Patients with initially diagnosed ACS who underwent primary coronary angiography in our hospital from January 2019 to April 2021 were included in this study. 757 patients with ACS who underwent primary coronary angiography were enrolled. According to the baseline SII level, the patients were divided into a high SII group and a low SII group. The primary endpoint was major cardiovascular events (MACEs), defined as cardiac death, non-fatal myocardial infarction (MI), and non-fatal stroke.Results: At a median follow-up of 33.9 months, 140 (18.5%) MACEs were recorded. Receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve analysis showed that SII's best cut-off value for predicting MACEs was 713.9*109/L. Kaplan-Meier survival curve analysis showed that the survival rate of the low SII group was higher than the high SII group (P< 0.001). Compared with the low SII group, the risk of MACEs was significantly increased in the high SII group (89 cases (33.3%) vs.51 patients (10.4%), P< 0.001). Univariate and multivariate Cox regression analysis manifested that high SII level was independently associated with the occurrence of MACEs in patients with ACS undergoing primary coronary angiography (adjusted hazard ratio [HR]: 2.915, 95% confidence interval (CI%): 1.830– 4.641, P< 0.001). Adding SII to the conventional risk factor model improved the predictive value of MACEs.Conclusion: This study showed that elevated SII was associated with adverse cardiovascular prognosis in patients with ACS undergoing primary coronary angiography, making SII a valuable predictor of poor prognosis in patients with ACS undergoing primary coronary angiography.
