Prognostic value of hematological parameters in patients with acute myocardial infarction: Intrahospital outcomes.

ABSTRACT:

Background

The intensity of the inflammatory response and hemodynamic repercussion in acute myocardial infarction causing the presence in the peripheral circulation of nucleated red blood cells (NRBCs), increases in mean platelet volume (MPV) and neutrophil to lymphocyte ratio (NLR) are associated with a poorer prognosis. The aim of this study was to assess the role of these hematological biomarkers as predictors of all causes of mortality during the hospitalization of patients with acute myocardial infarction.

Methods

Nucleated red blood cells, mean platelet volume and neutrophil to lymphocyte ratio were measured daily during the hospitalization of the patients with acute myocardial infarction. We excluded patients younger than 18 years, on glucocorticoid therapy, with cancer or hematological diseases and those that were readmitted after hospital discharge. We performed a multiple logistic analysis to identify independent predictors of mortality.

Results

We included 466 patients (mean age 64.2 ± 12.8 years, 61.6% male). The prevalence of NRBCs in the sample was 9.1% (42 patients), with levels > 200/μL in 27 patients (5.8%). The mean MPV value was 10.9 ±0,9 and the mean NLR value was 3.71 (2,38; 5,72). In a multivariate analysis of serum NRBCs (HR 2.42, 95% CI: 1.35-4.36, p = 0.003), MPV (HR 2.97, 95% CI: 1.15-7.67, p = 0.024) and NLR (HR 5.02, 95% CI: 1.68-15.0, p = 0.004). The presence in the peripheral blood of NRBCs, increased in mean platelet volume and neutrophil to lymphocyte ratio were associated with higher mortality.

Conclusions

Nucleated red blood cells, mean platelet volume and neutrophil to lymphocyte ratio are independent predictors of intrahospital mortality. Therefore, an important tool in intrahospital clinical surveillance.

Project description:ObjectiveTo determine prognostic role of endothelial progenitor cells (EPCs) in intensive care patients with acute myocardial infarction (AMI).Materials and methodsFrom December 2018 to July 2021, a total of 91 eligible patients with AMI were consecutively examined in a single intensive care unit (ICU) in China. Patients with a history of acute coronary artery disease were excluded from the study. Samples were collected within 24 hr of onset of symptoms. EPCs, defined as coexpression of CD34+/CD133+ cells or CD133+/CD34+/KDR+, were studied using flow cytometry and categorized by quartiles. Based on the 28-days mortality outcome, the patients were further divided into two groups: death and survival. The study incorporated various variables, including cardiovascular risk factors such as body mass index, hypertension, diabetes, hypercholesterolemia, atherosclerotic burden, and medication history, as well as clinical characteristics such as APACHEⅡscore, central venous-arterial carbon dioxide difference (GAP), homocysteine, creatinine, C-reactive protein, HbAlc, and cardiac index. Cox regression analysis was employed to conduct a multivariate analysis.ResultsA total of 91 patients with AMI who were admitted to the ICU were deemed eligible for inclusion in the study. Among these patients, 23 (25.3%) died from various causes during the follow-up period. The counts of EPCs were found to be significantly higher in the survival group compared to the death group (P < 0.05). In the univariate analysis, it was observed that the 28-days mortality rate was associated with the several factors, including the APACHEⅡscore (P=0.00), vasoactive inotropic score (P=0.03), GAP (P=0.00), HCY (P=0.00), creatinine (P=0.00), C-reactive protein (P=0.00), HbAlc (P=0.00), CI (P=0.01), quartiles of CD34+/CD133+ cells (P=0.00), and quartiles of CD34+/CD133+/KDR+ cells (P=0.00). CD34+/CD133+/KDR+ cells retained statistical significance in Cox regression models even after controlling for clinical variables (HR: 6.258 × 10-10 and P=0.001). Nevertheless, no significant correlation was observed between CD34+/CD133+ cells and all-cause mortality.ConclusionsThe decreased EPCs levels, especially for CD34+/CD133+/KDR+ cells subsets, were an independent risk factor for 28-days mortality in AMI patients.

Project description:BackgroundAlthough traditional cardiovascular risk factors are closely related to the poor prognosis of acute myocardial infarction (AMI) patients, there are few studies on the relationship of serum phosphorus and calcium with prognosis in AMI patients. The relationship of serum phosphorus and calcium with prognostic biomarkers in AMI remains unclear.Methods and resultsA total of 3,891 AMI patients were enrolled from a prospective cohort study. We investigated the association of serum phosphorus and calcium with prognostic biomarkers. The risk of in-hospital heart failure (HF), post-discharge HF, all-cause mortality and cardiac mortality was estimated across quartiles of serum phosphorus and calcium levels. Serum phosphorus and calcium levels were associated with biomarkers of prognosis. Overall, 969 patients developed in-hospital HF during hospitalization, 549 patients developed post-discharge HF during a median follow-up of 12 months, and 252 patients died, with 170 cardiac deaths since admission. In the fully adjusted model, compared with patients in quartile 2 (Q2), patients with serum phosphorus levels in Q4 were at greater risk of post-discharge HF [sub-distributional hazard ratios (SHR) 1.55; 95% confidence interval (CI), 1.21-1.99], in-hospital HF [odds ratio (OR) 1.84; 95% CI, 1.47-2.31], all-cause mortality (HR 1.59; 95% CI, 1.08-2.32), and cardiac mortality (SHR 1.68; 95% CI, 1.03-2.75). Compared with patients in Q2, patients with corrected calcium levels in Q4 had a higher risk of in-hospital HF (OR 1.62; 95% CI, 1.29-2.04), all-cause mortality (HR 1.99; 95% CI, 1.37-2.88), and cardiac mortality (SHR 1.87; 95% CI, 1.19-2.96; all p-trend < 0.05).ConclusionSerum phosphorus and calcium levels were associated with AMI prognostic biomarkers in AMI. Higher serum phosphorus was independently related to the increased risk of in-hospital HF, postdischarge HF, all-cause mortality and cardiac mortality, and higher serum calcium was independently related to the increased risk of in-hospital HF, all-cause mortality and cardiac mortality after AMI.

Project description:BackgroundShock is associated with the activation of the coagulation and fibrinolytic system, and D-dimer is the degradation product of cross-linked fibrin. However, the prognostic value of D-dimer in patients with cardiogenic shock (CS) after acute myocardial infarction (AMI) remains unclear.MethodsWe retrospectively analyzed the data of consecutive patients with CS complicating AMI. The primary endpoint was 30-day mortality and the secondary endpoint was the major adverse cardiovascular events (MACEs) including 30-day all-cause mortality, ventricular tachycardia/ventricular fibrillation, atrioventricular block, gastrointestinal hemorrhage, and non-fatal stroke. Restricted cubic spline (RCS) analyses were performed to assess the association between admission D-dimer and outcomes. A multivariable Cox regression model was performed to identify independent risk factors. The risk predictive potency with D-dimer added to the traditional risk scores was evaluated by C-statistics and the net reclassification index.ResultsAmong 218 patients with CS complicating AMI, those who died during the 30-day follow-up presented with worse baseline characteristics and laboratory test results, including a higher level of D-dimer. According to the X-tile program result, the continuous plasma D-dimer level was divided into three gradients. The 30-day all-cause mortality in patients with low, medium, and high levels of D-dimer were 22.4, 53.3, and 86.2%, respectively (p < 0.001 for all). The 30-day incidence of MACEs was 46.3, 77.0, and 89.7%, respectively (p < 0.001). In the multivariable Cox regression model, the trilogy of D-dimer level was an independent risk predictor for 30-day mortality (median D-dimer cohort: HR 1.768, 95% CI 0.982-3.183, p = 0.057; high D-dimer cohort: HR 2.602, 95% CI 1.310-5.168, p = 0.006), a similar result was observed in secondary endpoint events (median D-dimer cohort: HR 2.012, 95% CI 1.329-3.044, p = 0.001; high D-dimer cohort: HR 2.543, 95% CI 1.452-4.453, p = 0.001). The RCS analyses suggested non-linear associations of D-dimer with 30-day mortality. The enrollment of D-dimer improved risk discrimination for all-cause death when combined with the traditional CardShock score (C-index: 0.741 vs. 0.756, p difference = 0.004) and the IABP-SHOCK II score (C-index: 0.732 vs. 0.754, p difference = 0.006), and the GRACE score (C-index: 0.679 vs. 0.715, p difference < 0.001). Similar results were acquired after logarithmic transformed D-dimer was included in the risk score. The improvements in reclassification which were calculated as additional net reclassification index were 7.5, 8.6, and 12.8%, respectively.ConclusionAdmission D-dimer level was independently associated with the short-term outcome in patients with CS complicating AMI and addition of D-dimer brought incremental risk prediction value to traditional risk prediction scores.
