Abstract
Chitinase-3-like protein 1 (CHI3L1) is a secreted glycoprotein that mediates inflammation, macrophage polarization, apoptosis, and carcinogenesis. The expression of CHI3L1 is strongly upregulated by various inflammatory and immunological diseases, including several cancers, Alzheimer's disease, and atherosclerosis. Several studies have shown that CHI3L1 can be considered as a marker of disease diagnosis, prognosis, disease activity, and severity. In addition, the proinflammatory action of CHI3L1 may be mediated via responses to various proinflammatory cytokines, including tumor necrosis factor-α, interleukin-1β, interleukin-6, and interferon-γ. Therefore, CHI3L1 may contribute to a vast array of inflammatory diseases. However, its pathophysiological and pharmacological roles in the development of inflammatory diseases remain unclear. In this article, we review recent findings regarding the roles of CHI3L1 in the development of inflammatory diseases and suggest therapeutic approaches that target CHI3L1.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The Uric acid/Albumin ratio (UAR) has recently been identified as a prominent marker in cardiovascular diseases. In this study, we aimed to reveal the effect of UAR on coronary collateral circulation (CCC) in patients with stable coronary artery disease (CAD) patients by comparing it with conventional inflammation-based markers. METHODS In this study, 415 consecutive patients who underwent coronary angiography for stable angina pectoris and were found to have chronic total occlusion in at least one coronary artery were retrospectively included. The study population was divided into two groups as good CCC (Rentrop 2-3) and poor CCC (Rentrop 0-1) according to the Rentrop classification, and the groups were compared in terms of UAR and other traditional inflammation-based markers. RESULTS In the poor CCC group, C-reactive protein/albumin ratio (CAR), monocyte/high-density lipoprotein cholesterol ratio (MHR), neutrophil/lymphocyte ratio (NLR), platelet/lymphocyte ratio (PLR), systemic immune-inflammation index (SII) and UAR were found to be significantly high (p < .05, for all). UAR negatively correlated with rentrop classification (r = -0.383, p < .001). In multivariate regression analysis, MHR, NLR, SII and UAR were determined as independent predictors for poor CCC (p < .05, for all). The ability of UAR to predict poor CCC was superior to uric acid and albumin alone (p < .0001, for both). In addition, UAR was found to be superior to other inflammation-based markers in predicting poor CCC (p < .005, for all). CONCLUSION UAR was identified as a strong and independent predictor of CCC. In this context, UAR may be a useful biomarker in the risk prediction of patients with stable CAD.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Elevated circulatory concentrations of YKL-40 have been reported in patients with ischemic stroke. This study further investigated the association of plasma YKL-40 concentrations at admission and short, long-term prognosis after ischemic stroke. METHODS Based on a prospective, nationwide multicenter registry focusing consecutive patients of ischemic stroke and transient ischemic attack, plasma YKL-40 levels were detected by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay at admission, and patients were stratified into percentile according to the plasma YKL-40 concentrations. The multivariate Cox or logistic regression model was used to investigate the association of YKL-40 concentration with death and functional outcomes at 3 months, 6 months, and 12 months after ischemic stroke, with potential confounders adjusted. RESULTS A total of 8,006 first-ever ischemic stroke patients, with the age of 61.7 ± 11.5, were included in this study. The mortality of 0-33%, 34-66%, 67-90%, and 91-100% groups at 12 months follow-up was 0.9%, 2.2%, 4.4%, and 9.4%, respectively (p < 0.0001), and the modified Rankin Scale 3-6 ratio was 6.8%, 10.5%, 15.7%, and 24.0%, respectively (p < 0.0001). In the multivariate regression, after adjusting for potential confounders, 91-100% group had higher risk of death (hazard ratio 2.99, 95% confidence interval 1.75-5.11)and modified Rankin Scale 3-6 (odds ratio 1.42, 95% confidence interval 1.08-1.88) at 12 months since onset of ischemic stroke compared to the 0-33% group. CONCLUSIONS The elevated YKL-40 at admission can potentially help predict death, functional prognosis after ischemic stroke, which may help further studies to explore the potential physiological and pathological mechanism including the effects of vulnerable plaque and collateral circulation.

Abstract
Acute stent thrombosis (AST) is associated with increased morbidity and mortality. The main aim of this study was to evaluate the prognostic value of the systemic immune-inflammation index (SII) and C-reactive protein (CRP) to albumin ratio (CAR) in predicting AST and high SYNTAX score in patients with acute coronary syndrome (ACS) undergoing percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI). The criteria of the Academic Research Consortium were used to determine definite stent thrombosis. A total of 2077 consecutive patients with ACS undergoing PCI were retrospectively enrolled. Platelet, white blood cell and neutrophil counts, as well as SII, CRP, CAR, and peak cardiac troponin I (cTnI) values were significantly higher, whereas the lymphocyte count and albumin values were significantly lower in the AST (+) group compared with the AST (-) group (P < .05). SYNTAX score showed significant positive correlations with SII (r = .429, P < .001) and CRP (r = .402, P < .001). Multivariate logistic regression analysis showed that SII and CAR, as well as age, diabetes mellitus, stent length, and peak cTnI are independent predictors of AST and high SYNTAX score. In conclusion, the SII and CAR are simple, relatively cheap, and reliable inflammatory biomarkers that can predict AST and high SYNTAX scores in ACS.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To evaluate the prognostic value of preprocedural CHA2DS2-VASc [congestive heart failure, hypertension, age ≥75 years (doubled), diabetes mellitus, previous stroke or transient ischemic attack (TIA) (doubled), vascular disease, age 65-74 years, female gender] score in predicting high SYNTAX (Synergy between Percutaneous Coronary Intervention with Taxus and Cardiac Surgery) score and in-hospital mortality for non-atrial fibrillation (AF) patients presenting with non-ST elevation myocardial infarction (NSTEMI). The CHA2DS2-VASc score used to determine thromboembolic risks in AF was recently reported to predict major adverse clinical outcomes in patients with the acute coronary syndrome, irrespective of AF. METHODS A total of 906 patients with a diagnosis of NSTEMI who underwent coronary angiography were retrospectively enrolled and divided into three groups according to their SYNTAX scores (low, intermediate, and high). The CHA2DS2-VASc score of each patient was calculated. RESULTS SYNTAX score had a significant positive correlation with the CHA2DS2-VASc score (r=0.320; p<0.001) in the Spearman correlation analysis. The CHA2DS2-VASc score [Odds ratio, 1.445; 95% confidence interval (CI), 1.268-1.648, p<0.001], left ventricular ejection fraction, creatinine, C-reactive protein, and high-density and low-density lipoprotein cholesterol levels were demonstrated to be independent predictors of high SYNTAX score. The CHA2DS2-VASc score [Hazard ratio (HR), 1.867; 95% CI: 1.462-2.384; p<0.001], the SYNTAX score (HR, 1.049; p=0.003), and age (HR, 1.057; p=0.002) were independently associated with higher risk of in-hospital mortality in a multiple Cox-regression model. Kaplan-Meier survival curves stratified by the CHA2DS2-VASc score (<4 vs. ≥4) also showed that higher CHA2DS2-VASc scores were associated with higher in-hospital mortality. CONCLUSIONS In non-AF patients with NSTEMI, CHA2DS2-VASc and SYNTAX scores are useful for prognosis assessment and can be used to identify patients at higher risk for in-hospital mortality.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE The aim of this study was to find out the relationship between serum biomarkers and cerebral collateral status in acute ischemic stroke with cerebral large artery atherosclerosis. METHODS We enrolled patients with ischemic stroke due to large artery atherosclerosis within 7 days of symptom onset, age 18-80 years, from August 2016 to December 2017. Twelve biomarkers representing different pathophysiological mechanisms were tested after admission. Whole-brain perfusion combined with multiphase computed tomography angiography was performed to assess cerebral collateral structure and function. RESULTS Fifty-two patients completed the test of candidate biomarkers and recruited in this study. The mean age was 55.0 (11.1) years, 42 (80.8%) patients were male, 20 (38.5%) had poor collateral, 36 (69.2%) patients had anterior circulation stenosis or occlusion. Compared with poor collateral group, the level of MMP-9 (135,475.00 pg/ml vs. 103,612.00 pg/ml, p = 0.040) and PGF (5.75 pg/ml vs. 3.46 pg/ml, p = 0.046) was significantly higher in good collateral group. The adjusted OR (95%CI) of MMP-9 and PGF were 5.533 (1.10-27.74, p = 0.038), 7.73 (1.41-42.39, p = 0.018), respectively. sTie-2 level had a positive correlation with proportion of Tmax 4-6 (r = 0.302, p = 0.033) and HMW-KGN had negative correlation with proportion of Tmax 6-8 (r = -0.338, p = 0.02). After adjustment, the correlation of sTie-2 level and proportion of Tmax 4-6 was statistically significant (p = 0.003), and correlation of HMW-KGN and Tmax6-8 was not statistically significant (p = 0.056). DISCUSSION Serum PGF and MMP-9 levels may correlate with collateral status based on MP-CTA in acute ischemic stroke patients with cerebral large artery atherosclerosis. Higher PGF and MMP-9 concentration associated with good collateral status.

Abstract
Background The inflammatory biomarker YKL‐40 has previously been studied as a potential risk marker in cardiovascular disease. We aimed to assess the prognostic reclassification potential of serum YKL‐40 in patients with stable coronary artery disease. Methods and Results The main study population was the placebo group of the CLARICOR (Effect of Clarithromycin on Mortality and Morbidity in Patients With Ischemic Heart Disease) trial. The primary outcome was a composite of acute myocardial infarction, unstable angina pectoris, cerebrovascular disease, and all‐cause mortality. We used Cox proportional hazards regression models adjusted for C‐reactive protein level and baseline cardiovascular risk factors. Improvement in prediction by adding serum YKL‐40 to the risk factors was calculated using the Cox‐Breslow method and c‐statistic. A total of 2200 patients were randomized to placebo, with a follow‐up duration of 10 years. YKL‐40 was associated with an increased risk of the composite outcome (hazard ratio per unit increase in (YKL‐40) 1.13, 95% CI 1.03–1.24, P=0.013) and all‐cause mortality (hazard ratio 1.32, 95% CI 1.17–1.49, P<0.0001). Considering whether a composite‐outcome event was more likely to have, or not have, occurred to date, we found 68.4% of such predictions to be correct when based on the standard predictors, and 68.5% when serum YKL‐40 was added as a predictor. Equivalent results were obtained with c‐statistics. Conclusions Higher serum YKL‐40 was independently associated with an increased risk of adverse cardiovascular outcomes and mortality. Addition of YKL‐40 did not improve risk prediction in patients with stable coronary artery disease. Clinical Trial Registration URL: https://www.clinicaltrials.gov/. Unique identifier: NCT00121550.

Comparison of the Value of Neutrophil to High-Density Lipoprotein Cholesterol Ratio and Lymphocyte to High-Density Lipoprotein Cholesterol Ratio for Predicting Metabolic Syndrome Among a Population in the Southern Coast of China. Diabetes Metab Syndr Obes 2020; 13:597-605.

Abstract
BACKGROUND This study aimed to determine the optimal cutoff values and evaluate the associations of neutrophil to high-density lipoprotein cholesterol ratio (NHR) and lymphocyte to high-density lipoprotein cholesterol ratio (LHR) with metabolic syndrome (MetS), stratified by sex. METHODS A large-scale cross-sectional survey was conducted among 1401 adults from January to April 2018 in six communities in Wanzhai Town, Zhuhai City, on the southern coast of China. Receiver operating characteristics (ROC) analyses and logistic regression analysis were conducted to assess the optimal cutoff and value of NHR and LHR for predicting MetS. RESULTS Hematological parameters showed the correlation with the occurrence of MetS (red blood cells, hemoglobin, and white blood cells and subtypes). Binomial logistic regression analysis found that LHR (OR: 3.671; 95% CI: 2.385-5.651; p<0.001) and NHR (OR: 1.728; 95% CI: 1.353-2.207; p<0.001) can predict MetS in females, independent of confounding factors. Although LHR (OR: 1.571; 95% CI: 1.001-2.468; p=0.05) and NHR (OR: 1.163; 95% CI: 0.909-1.48; p<0.01) were independent risk factors for MetS in males after adjustment for age, current smoking, current alcohol use, physical activity, educational attainment, waist circumference, systolic pressure, diastolic pressure and hypersensitive C-reactive protein (hs-CRP), when further adjusted for fasting plasma glucose level, LHR and NHR, both lost their independence. ROC curves showed that LHR had the highest AUC for predicting MetS in females and NHR had the highest AUC in males. The cutoff points of LHR and NHR were 1.36 and 2.31 in females, and 1.96 and 3.38 in males. CONCLUSION LHR and NHR may become valuable makers and have strong predictive power for predicting MetS, especially in females.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Acute coronary syndrome (ACS) is closely related to unstable plaques and secondary thrombosis. The inflammatory cells in plaques and their inflammatory products may be the cause for plaque instability and ruptures. The study aimed to disclose the changes of inflammatory factors including serum intracellular adhesion molecule-1 (ICAM-1), chitinase-3-like protein 1 (YKL-40), and lipoprotein-associated phospholipase A2 (Lp-PLA2) in patients with ACS and its clinical significance. METHODS A total of 120 patients with coronary heart disease (CHD) were categorized into 2 groups: 69 with ACS and 51 with stable angina pectoris (SAP); 20 patients with chest pain and normal angiography served as a control group. The 120 patients with CHD were categorized into single-vessel disease group, double-vessel disease group, and three-vessel disease group based on the number of coronary artery stenosis. The severity of coronary artery stenosis was quantified based on coronary angiography using Gensini score. They were further divided into mild CHD group with its Gensini score <26 (n = 36), moderate CHD group with its Gensini score being 26-54 (n = 48) and severe CHD group with its Gensini score >54 (n = 36). Serum levels of ICAM-1, YKL-40, and Lp-PLA2 of different groups were determined by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay. Correlation between ICAM-1, YKL-40, Lp-PLA2, and Gensini score was analyzed. RESULTS The levels of serum inflammatory factors ICAM-1, YKL-40, and Lp-PLA2 were significantly higher in the ACS group than those in control group and SAP group (all P < 0.05); and compared with control group, no significant difference was observed in terms of the serum ICAM-1, YKL-40, and Lp-PLA2 levels in the SAP group (P > 0.05).The levels of serum ICAM-1, YKL-40, and Lp-PLA2 were not significantly different among control group, single-vessel disease group, double-vessel disease group, and three-vessel disease group (all P > 0.05). The levels of serum ICAM-1, YKL-40, and Lp-PLA2 were not significantly different among control group, mild CHD group (Gensini score <26), moderate CHD group (Gensini score 26-54), and severe CHD group (Gensini score >54) (all P > 0.05). Nonparametric Spearman correlation analysis showed that the levels of serum ICAM-1, YKL-40, and Lp-PLA2 were not correlated with the Gensini score in CHD patients (r = 0.093, r = -0.149, and r = -0.085, all P > 0.05; respectively). CONCLUSIONS The serum levels of ICAM-1, YKL-40, and Lp-PLA2 were correlated with different clinical types of CHD, but not well correlated the severity and extent of artery stenosis, suggesting that ICAM-1, YKL-40, and Lp-PLA2 might be involved in occurrence of instability of atherosclerotic plaque, and might reflect the severity of CHD mostly through reflecting the plaque stability.

Abstract
BACKGROUND AND AIMS YKL-40 is an inflammatory marker secreted by macrophages and is expressed in atherosclerotic plaques. YKL-40 increases in coronary artery disease (CAD) with poor coronary collateral vessel development. Higher levels are linked to reduced survival in CAD patients. Studies evaluating YKL-40 in patients with peripheral arterial disease (PAD) are scarce. This study aims to elucidate a possible link between YKL-40 and PAD severity as well as cardiovascular long-term mortality. METHODS YKL-40 was measured at baseline in 365 elderly PAD patients (age 69 ± 10.4, 33.7% women, Fontaine stage I-II) by bead-based multiplex assay. Patients were followed for seven years to assess long-term cardiovascular and all-cause survival by Kaplan-Meier and Cox regression. RESULTS YKL-40 levels were associated with declining ankle-brachial index (ABI) in PAD patients without Moenckeberg's mediasclerosis (R = -0.189, p=0.002). PAD patients with mediasclerosis exhibited higher YKL-40 levels (p=0.002). Baseline YKL-40 levels were significantly associated with cardiovascular mortality (HR 1.52 (1.21-1.91), p < 0.001) and all-cause mortality (HR 1.45 (1.20-1.75), p < 0.001) over a seven-year observation period. After multivariable adjustment for gender, patient age, known carotid artery disease, known coronary artery disease, smoking status, systolic blood pressure, HbA1c, low density lipoprotein cholesterol, estimated glomerular filtration rate, aspartate aminotransferase, and C-reactive protein, YKL-40 remained significantly associated with cardiovascular (HR 1.34 (1.02-1.75), p=0.033) and all-cause mortality (HR 1.25 (1.01-1.55), p=0.039). CONCLUSIONS Increased YKL-40 levels are independently associated with poor long-term cardiovascular survival in peripheral arterial disease patients. Furthermore, YKL-40 correlates with patients' ABI in PAD in the absence of mediasclerosis.

Abstract
Objective The aim of the study was to determine an association between the plasma YKL-40 level and echocardiographic left ventricle systolic and diastolic function parameters in patients with acute myocardial infarction. Subjects and Methods The study included 46 patients with acute myocardial infarction. Serum brain natriuretic protein (BNP) and YKL-40 levels were analyzed on admission and after one month. Left ventricle systolic and diastolic functions and Tei index were computed by transthoracic echocardiography. Results Plasma YKL-40 was significantly higher in patients with acute myocardial infarction (AMI) (101.7 μg/L versus 34 μg/L, resp., p < 0.001) and remained higher than in healthy subjects after one month. The levels of YKL-40 on admission were correlated with log BNP on admission (r=0.41, p=0.004), Tei index (r=0.44, p=0.002), left atrium volume index (r=0.32, p=0.02), and mitral septal annular E/e′ (r=0.44, p=0.003). Death was more frequently observed in patients with plasma YKL-40 above the median value than in those with plasma YKL-40 below the median value (p=0.001; OR = 13.6 (2.5–72.3)). Conclusion YKL-40 elevations in patients with AMI remain at least one month and are associated with serum BNP elevations, diastolic dysfunction, and long-term increased overall mortality. It has prognostic importance in patients with AMI.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Previously, decoy receptor 3 (DcR3) was found to be a potential angiogenetic factor, while the relationship of DcR3 with coronary collateral circulation formation has not been investigated. In this study, we aimed to investigate whether plasma decoy receptor 3 levels was associated with CCC formation and evaluate its predictive power for CCC status in patients with coronary artery disease. METHODS Among patients who underwent coronary angiography with coronary artery disease and had a stenosis of ≥90% were included in our study. Collateral degree was graded according to Rentrope Cohen classification. Patients with grade 2 or 3 collateral degree were enrolled in good CCC group and patients with grade 0 or 1 collateral degree were enrolled in poor CCC group. RESULTS Plasma DcR3 level was significantly higher in good CCC group (328.00±230.82 vs 194.84±130.63ng/l, p<0.01) and positively correlated with Rentrope grade (p<0.01). In addition, plasma DcR3 was also positively correlated with VEGF-A. Both ROC (receiver operating characteristic curve) and multinomial logistical regression analysis showed that plasma DcR3 displayed potent predictive power for CCC status. CONCLUSIONS Higher plasma DcR3 level was related to better CCC formation and displayed potent predictive power for CCC status.

Abstract
AIM We aimed to investigate the relationships between metabolic syndrome (MS) and monocyte to high density lipoprotein cholesterol ratio (MHR) and lymphocyte-to-monocyte ratio (LMR). METHODS 762 patients (n = 371 MS present and n = 391 MS absent) were enrolled. RESULTS MHR was significantly higher [13.9 (10.5-18.1) vs 11.1 (8.0-14.8); p < 0.001], whereas LMR was significantly lower [4.5 (3.6-5.7) vs 3.6 (2.9-4.8); p < 0.001] in patients with MS. LMR [OR: 0.796 (95% CI): 0.711-0.892); p < 0.001], MHR [OR: 1.052 (95% CI: 1.018-1.088); p = 0.003] and C-reactive protein [OR: 1.048 (95% CI: 1.032-1.065); p < 0.001] remained as independent variables for the presence of MS. CONCLUSION The present study shows that both LMR and MHR may be novel and useful indicators of MS.

Abstract
The CHA2DS2-VASc (congestive heart failure, hypertension, age ≥75 years, diabetes mellitus, previous stroke, vascular disease, age 65-74 years, female gender) score is used to estimate thromboembolic risk in atrial fibrillation (AF). Its usefulness in predicting in-stent restenosis (ISR) is unknown. We evaluated the predictive value of the CHA2DS2-VASc score in AF-free patients who have undergone stent implantation. A total of 1350 patients who underwent coronary angiography and successful bare-metal stent implantation were analyzed. The CHA2DS2-VASc score was calculated before percutaneous coronary intervention, and the association between the score and ISR was investigated. Patients (n = 700; mean age: 61.4 [8.7] years, 63% men) were divided in 2 subgroups according to the presence of ISR; 265 of 700 patients had ISR. Mean CHA2DS2-VASc score was significantly higher in the ISR (+) group than the ISR (−) group (3.7 [1.8] vs 2.1 [1.4], P < .001). According to multivariate logistic regression analysis, diabetes, hyperlipidemia, smoking, stent length, and CHA2DS2-VASc score were independent predictors of ISR. In conclusion, the CHA2DS2-VASc score may be useful as a new and simple tool to predict ISR.

Abstract
AIM We investigated the predictive value of chitinase-like protein YKL-40 in coronary artery disease (CAD). PATIENTS Serum YKL-40 levels in 116 CAD patients and 82 healthy controls were analyzed. Severity of CAD was evaluated using Gensini scores. Spearman's correlation was used to evaluate the correlation between Gensini scores and YKL-40 levels. The predictive value of YKL-40 was determined by receivers operating characteristic curve analysis. RESULTS Serum YKL-40 levels were significantly elevated in CAD group as compared with control group. A positive correlation was found between the serum YKL-40 level and Gensini score. The optimum cut-off value of YKL-40 concentration was 127.7 ng/ml for distinguishing CAD patients from healthy controls with a 75.9% sensitivity and 57.3% specificity. CONCLUSION A positive correlation exists between YKL-40 levels and CAD, and YKL-40 might be a useful adjunct in the diagnosis of CAD.
