Zhao G, Gu Y, Wang Z, Chen Y, Xia X. The clinical value of inflammation index in predicting ICU mortality of critically ill patients with intracerebral hemorrhage. Front Public Health 2024; 12:1373585. [PMID: 39157528 PMCID: PMC11327062 DOI: 10.3389/fpubh.2024.1373585] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/25/2024] [Accepted: 07/24/2024] [Indexed: 08/20/2024] Open
Abstract
Background The inflammatory response holds paramount significance in the context of intracerebral hemorrhage (ICH) and exhibits a robust correlation with mortality rates. Biological markers such as the neutrophil-to-lymphocyte ratio (NLR), platelet-to-lymphocyte ratio (PLR), lymphocyte-to-monocyte ratio (LMR), systemic immune inflammation index (SII), and systemic inflammatory response index (SIRI) play crucial roles in influencing the systemic inflammatory response following ICH. This study aims to compare the predictive efficacy of NLR, PLR, LMR, SII, and SIRI concerning the risk of mortality in the intensive care unit (ICU) among critically ill patients with ICH. Such a comparison seeks to elucidate their early warning capabilities in the management and treatment of ICH. Methods Patients with severe ICH requiring admission to the ICU were screened from the Medical Information Marketplace for Intensive Care (MIMIC-IV) database. The outcomes studied included ICU mortality and 30 day ICU hospitalization rates, based on tertiles of the NLR index level. To explore the relationship between the NLR index and clinical outcomes in critically ill patients with ICH, we utilized receiver operating characteristic (ROC) analysis, decision curve analysis (DCA), and multivariate logistic regression analysis. Results A total of 869 patients (51.9% male) were included in the study, with an ICU mortality rate of 22.9% and a 30 day ICU hospitalization rate of 98.4%. Among the five indicators examined, both the ROC curve and DCA indicated that NLR (AUC: 0.660, 95%CI: 0.617-0.703) had the highest predictive ability for ICU mortality. Moreover, this association remained significant even after adjusting for other confounding factors during multivariate analysis (HR: 3.520, 95%CI: 2.039-6.077). Based on the results of the multivariate analysis, incorporating age, albumin, lactic acid, NLR, and GCS score as variables, we developed a nomogram to predict ICU mortality in critically ill patients with ICH. Conclusion NLR emerges as the most effective predictor of ICU mortality risk among critically ill patients grappling with ICH when compared to the other four indicators. Furthermore, the integration of albumin and lactic acid indicators into the NLR nomogram enhances the ability to promptly identify ICU mortality in individuals facing severe ICH.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To determine the association of D-dimer to albumin ratio (DAR) with major adverse cardiovascular events (MACE) after percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) in ischaemic heart failure patients with diabetes mellitus. DESIGN A retrospective observational cohort study. SETTING Single centre in Beijing, China, conducted at one of the largest cardiology centres in China. PARTICIPANTS From June 2017 to June 2019, 3707 patients with heart failure and concomitant multiple vessel disease undergoing elective PCI were screened. A total 1021 of patients were enrolled after exclusion and the follow-up period was up to 36 months. PRIMARY AND SECONDARY OUTCOME MEASURES The MACE was the primary measured outcome. The secondary outcomes were all-cause mortality, non-fatal myocardial infarction and any revascularisation. METHODS These participants were grouped according to DAR tertiles. The cumulative incidence functions, Cox regression, restricted cubic spline and receiver operating characteristic curves were used to determine the association between DAR and outcomes. The subgroup analysis was also performed. RESULTS After follow-up, MACE occurred in 404 (39.6%) participants. The cumulative hazards curve manifested significant differences in MACE, all-cause mortality and any revascularisation (log-rank test: all p<0.001). In adjusted models, DAR was an independent risk factor of MACE (tertile 2: HR 1.82, 95% CI 1.37 to 2.42; tertile 3: HR 1.74, 95% CI 1.28 to 2.36) and all-cause mortality (tertile 2: HR 2.04, 95% CI 1.35 to 3.11; tertile 3: HR 1.89, 95% CI 1.20 to 2.98). The optimal cut-off of DAR was 1.2. In the stratified analysis, sex, age, hypertension, hypercholesterolaemia, total revascularisation and any interfered vessel did not affect the independent predictive ability. CONCLUSION Higher DAR was independently associated with MACE and all-cause mortality after PCI in ischaemic heart failure patients with diabetes mellitus.

World J Psychiatry 2024; 14:53-62. [PMID: 38327882 PMCID: PMC10845224 DOI: 10.5498/wjp.v14.i1.53] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/06/2023] [Revised: 11/25/2023] [Accepted: 12/21/2023] [Indexed: 01/19/2024] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND Patients with chronic heart failure (CHF) have a progressive disease that is associated with poor quality of life and high mortality. Many patients experience anxiety and depression (A&D) symptoms, which can further accelerate disease progression. We hypothesized that indicators of myocardial function and inflammatory stress may reflect the severity of A&D symptoms in patients with CHF. Changes in these biomarkers could potentially predict whether A&D symptoms will deteriorate further in these individuals. AIM To measure changes in cardiac and inflammatory markers in patients with CHF to determine A&D severity and predict outcomes. METHODS We retrospectively analyzed 233 patients with CHF treated at the Jingzhou Hospital, Yangtze University between 2018-2022 and grouped them according to Self-Rating Anxiety Scale (SAS) and Self-Rating Depression Scale (SDS) scores. We compared clinical data in the no-A&D, mild-A&D, moderate-A&D, and severe-A&D groups, the SAS and SDS scores with the New York Heart Association (NYHA) functional classification, and cardiac markers and inflammatory factors between the no/mild-A&D and moderate/severe-A&D groups. Regression analysis was performed on the markers with P < 0.05 to determine their ability to predict A&D severity in patients and the area under the receiver operating characteristic curve (AUROC) was used to evaluate their accuracy. RESULTS In the inter-group comparison, the following variables had an effect on A&D severity in patients with CHF: NYHA class, left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF), left ventricular end-diastolic diameter, N-terminal pro-brain natriuretic peptide (NT-proBNP), interleukin-6 (IL-6), and tumor necrosis factor-alpha (P < 0.05). Other variables did not differ significantly between the A&D groups (P > 0.05). In addition, we found that higher NYHA classes were associated with higher the SAS and SDS scores (P < 0.05). Regression analysis showed that LVEF, NT-proBNP, and IL-6 were independent risk factors for A&D severity (P < 0.05). Among them, NT-proBNP had the best predictive ability as a single indicator (AUROC = 0.781). Furthermore, the combination of these three indicators exhibited a good predictive effect toward discriminating the extent of A&D severity among patients (AUROC = 0.875). CONCLUSION Cardiac and inflammatory biomarkers, such as LVEF, NT-proBNP, and IL-6, are correlated with A&D severity in patients with CHF and have predictive value.

Abstract
The Naples score is a new prognostic score developed according to inflammatory and nutritional status and frequently evaluated in cancer patients. The present study aimed to evaluate using the Naples prognostic score (NPS) to predict the development of decreased left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) after acute ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI). The study has a multicenter and retrospective design and included 2280 patients with STEMI who underwent primary percutaneous coronary intervention (pPCI) between 2017 and 2022. All participants were divided into 2 groups according to their NPS. The relationship between these 2 groups and LVEF was evaluated. The low-Naples risk group (Group-1) included 799 patients, and the high-Naples risk group (Group-2) had 1481 patients. Hospital mortality, shock, and no-reflow rates were found to be higher in Group 2 compared with Group 1 (P < .001, P = .032, P = .004). The NPS was significantly inversely associated with discharge LVEF (B coefficient: -1.51, 95% CI-2.26; -.76, P = .001). NPS, a simple and easily calculated risk score, may help identify high-risk STEMI patients. To the best of our knowledge, the present study is the first to demonstrate the relationship between low LVEF and NPS in patients with STEMI.

Monocyte to high-density lipoprotein cholesterol ratio predicts poor outcomes in ischaemic heart failure patients combined with diabetes: a retrospective study. Eur J Med Res 2023; 28:493. [PMID: 37941037 PMCID: PMC10631131 DOI: 10.1186/s40001-023-01451-6] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/06/2023] [Accepted: 10/16/2023] [Indexed: 11/10/2023] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND The prevalence of ischaemic heart failure (HF) continues to increase. Diabetes mellitus (DM) concomitant with ischaemic HF increases the risk of major adverse cardiovascular events (MACEs). As a promising predictor for cardiovascular diseases, the predictive value of the monocyte to high-density lipoprotein cholesterol ratio (MHR) for MACE in the ischaemic HF with DM cohort has never been investigated before. OBJECTIVE We aimed to investigate the MHR as a predictor for MACE in ischaemic HF patients with DM who underwent percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI). METHODS This observational study enrolled 1049 patients with ischaemic HF and DM undergoing PCI from June 2017 to June 2019. The baseline data were collected. MACEs, including all-cause mortality, nonfatal myocardial infarction, and any revascularization, were recorded within the 36-month follow-up. The characteristics and incidence of MACE were analysed in four groups stratified by the quartiles of MHR. The hazard ratio for MACE was analysed with Cox regression models. The incidence of MACE in the four groups was evaluated by Kaplan‒Meier survival analysis. Restricted cubic spline analysis was performed to determine the nonlinear correlation between the MHR and MACE. RESULTS After the 36-month follow-up, 407 patients (38.8%) experienced MACEs. The incidence of MACE was significantly higher among patients in the upper MHR quartile than among those in the lower MHR quartiles (23.4% vs. 36.0% vs. 41.4% and 54.6%; P < 0.001, respectively), which was consistent with the Kaplan‒Meier survival analyses (P < 0.0001). A multivariate Cox regression model showed that the MHR was an independent risk factor for MACE after variables were adjusted (adjusted HR: 2.11; 95% CI 1.47-3.03; P < 0.001). Its predictive effects on MACE showed no interaction with hypercholesterolemia (P > 0.05). CONCLUSION The MHR was a significant and independent predictor of MACEs in ischaemic HF patients with DM undergoing PCI.

Abstract
Background Inflammation is essential in cardiovascular disease (CVD) development and progression. A novel inflammatory parameter, the systemic inflammation response index (SIRI), has been proven to predict cancer prognosis strongly. Little is known about the relationship between SIRI and outcomes in patients with ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI). Methods 1312 STEMI patients who underwent percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) in Beijing Anzhen hospital from January 2019 to December 2021 were analyzed. SIRI was calculated as neutrophils × monocytes/lymphocytes. Our primary outcome was a 30-day major adverse event (MACE), including all-cause mortality, non-fatal myocardial infarction (MI), stroke, incident heart failure (HF), cardiogenic shock, and cardiac arrest. Results Patients were stratified into four groups according to quartiles of SIRI: SIRI < 1.58 (n = 328), 1.58 ≤ SIRI < 3.28 (n = 328), 3.28 ≤ SIRI < 7.80 (n = 328), SIRI ≥ 7.80 (n = 328). Higher SIRI was associated with a higher incidence of the 30-day MACE. The rates of 30-day MACE were 6.1%, 8.8%, 12.8%, and 17.1% (p < 0.001) for the lowest SIRI quartile to the highest quartile, respectively. This association was consistent in the outcome of HF but no other components. Higher SIRI indicated higher 30-day MACE incidence in most participants except in those with very high inflammatory indicators. Subgroup analysis showed this correlation was consistent in various subgroups (p for interaction > 0.05). Conclusions In patients with STEMI, higher SIRI indicated a higher incidence of 30-day MACE, except for those with very high inflammatory indicators. In most STEMI patients, SIRI might be a trustworthy indicator of short-term prognosis.

Abstract
Objective Inflammation contributes to the pathogenesis and progression of heart failure (HF). This study aimed to construct a nomogram based on systemic inflammatory markers and traditional prognostic factors to assess the risk of adverse outcomes (cardiovascular readmission and all-cause death) in patients with chronic heart failure (CHF). Methods Data were retrospectively collected from patients with HF admitted to the Department of Cardiovascular Medicine at the First Affiliated Hospital of Chongqing Medical University from January 2018 to April 2020, and each patient had complete follow-up information. The follow-up duration was from June 2018 to May 31, 2022. 550 patients were included and randomly assigned to the derivation and validation cohorts with a ratio of 7:3, and prognostic risk factors of CHF were identified by Cox regression analysis. The nomogram chart scoring model was constructed. Results The Cox multivariate regression analysis showed that traditional prognostic factors such as age (P=0.011), BMI (P=0.048), NYHA classification (P<0.001), creatinine (P<0.001), and systemic inflammatory markers including LMR (P=0.001), and PLR (P=0.015) were independent prognostic factors for CHF patients. Integrated with traditional and inflammatory prognostic factors, a nomogram was established, which yielded a C-index value of 0.739 (95% CI: 0.714-0.764) in the derivation cohort and 0.713 (95% CI: 0.668-0.758) in the validation cohort, respectively. The calibration curves exhibited good performance of the nomogram in predicting the adverse outcomes for patients with CHF. In subgroups (HFrEF, HFmrEF, and HFpEF groups), the systematic inflammatory markers-based nomograms proved to be effective prediction tools for patients' adverse overcomes, as well. Conclusion The nomogram combining systemic inflammatory markers and traditional risk factors has satisfactory predictive performance for adverse outcomes (mortality and readmission) in patients with CHF.
