    BACKGROUND: Malnutrition and the prognosis of coronary artery disease (CAD) are shown to be correlated. The significance of nutritional status has been evaluated in patients with ST elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI), stable CAD, and elective coronary artery bypass graft (CABG) surgery. However, the prognostic impact of poor nutritional status on STEMI patients who underwent emergent CABG is not known. In this study, we aimed to investigate the relationship between nutritional status assessed by the prognostic nutritional index (PNI) and long-term mortality in STEMI patients who underwent emergent CABG. To the best of our knowledge, our study is the first one to evaluate the PNI effect on this specific population. METHODS: 131 consecutive patients with STEMI who did not qualify for primary percutaneous coronary intervention and required emergent CABG between 2013 and 2018 were included in our study. The study population was divided into two groups: survivors and non-survivors. The PNI was calculated as 10 x serum albumin (g/dL) + 0.005 x total lymphocyte count (per mm3) for both groups, using the preoperative data. The optimal cut-off value was obtained by receiver operating characteristic (ROC) analysis. According to the cut-off value, we investigated the relationship between PNI and long-term mortality. RESULTS: The mean age of the study population was 57.0 +/- 10.6. During the median 92.7 (70.0-105.3)-month follow-up, 32 of the 131 patients (24.4%) died. Regression analysis showed a significant association between glucose levels (hazard ratio (HR), 1.007; 95% confidence interval (CI), 1.002-1.012; p=0.011) and PNI (HR, 0.850; 95% CI, 0.787-0.917; p<0.001) and long-term mortality. Accord-ing to the ROC analysis, the cut-off value for PNI to predict all-cause mortality was found to be 44.9, with a sensitivity of 81.3% and a specificity of 89.9%. In addition, age, ejection fraction, glomerular filtration rate, Killip classification, and left anterior descending-left internal mammary artery graft use are significantly associated with long-term all-cause mortality in STEMI patients undergoing emergency CABG. CONCLUSION: The PNI was significantly associated with long-term mortality in patients with STEMI who underwent emergent CABG. PNI can be used to improve the accuracy of the risk assessment of STEMI patients undergoing emergent CABG.

    Relationship between systemic immune-inflammation index and no-reflow in percutaneous coronary intervention for saphenous grafts
    (Future Medicine Ltd, 2023) Demirci, Gokhan; Sahin, Ahmet A.; Aktemur, Tugba; Demir, Ali R.; Cetin, Ilyas; Karakurt, Huseyin; Arslan, Enes
    Objective: In this study, we investigated the occurrence of no-reflow (NR) in percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) for saphenous vein grafts (SVGs) and its relationship with a new systemic immune-inflammation index (SII) that determines inflammation. Methods: We studied 303 patients with acute coronary syndrome without ST elevation who underwent PCI for SVG disease. Results: NR formation during SVG PCI was significantly higher in patients with high SII (p < 0.001). NR occurrence was 12.8% when SII was & LE;548 and 41.9% when SII was >548. Conclusion: Our study is the first to investigate SII as the state of inflammation and its effect on the SVG PCI. Patients with higher SII have a higher risk of NR during an SVG for PCI. Plain language summaryThis study is about a type of surgery called bypass surgery, which is done to help when the heart is not working properly. During this surgery, doctors sometimes use veins in the leg to create new pathways for blood to flow around the heart. However, after a while these vessels can narrow or become blocked, so another procedure, stenting, is done to open them. Even after the stent is placed, the blood flow through the vein is sometimes not as good as it should be. This is called 'no reflow'. We wanted to investigate how often this problem occurs and whether it is related to a marker called the systemic immune-inflammation index (SII), which is a measure of inflammation in the body.We analyzed 303 patients who underwent stenting after a heart attack. We divided them into two groups according to their SII scores and investigated whether there was a difference in no-reflow occurrence between the two groups. We found that patients with a higher SII score were more likely to have no reflow during the stenting procedure, and an increased risk of no reflow if the SII score was above 548.This study was the first to look at SII and how it affects the stenting procedure for vessels used in bypass surgery.

    Systemic Immune-Inflammatory Index Is Associated with Residual SYNTAX Score in Patients with ST-Segment Elevation Myocardial Infarction
    (Kare Publ, 2023) Altunova, Mehmet; Karakayali, Muammer; Kahraman, Serkan; Avci, Yalcin; Demirci, Gokhan; Sevinc, Samet; Yazan, Serkan
    Background: Systemic immune-inflammatory index (platelet count x neutrophil- lymphocyte ratio) is a new marker that predicts adverse clinical outcomes in coronary artery diseases. Our aim was to investigate the relationship between the systemic immune-inflammatory index and residual SYNTAX score in patients with ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction undergoing primary percutaneous coronary intervention.Methods: In this retrospective study, 518 consecutive patients who underwent primary percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) with the diagnosis of ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction were analyzed. The severity of coronary artery diseases was deter-mined by residual SYNTAX score. In the receiver operating characteristic curve analysis, systemic immune-inflammatory index with an optimal threshold value of 1025.1 could detect the presence of a high residual SYNTAX score; the patients were divided into 2 groups as low (326) and high (192) according to the threshold value. In addition, binary multiple logistic regression analysis methods were used to evaluate independent predictors of high residual SYNTAX score.Results: In binary multiple logistic regression analysis, systemic immune-inflammatory index [odds ratio=6.910; 95% CI=4.203-11.360; P <.001] was an independent predictor of high residual SYNTAX score. In addition, there was a positive correlation between the systemic immune-inflammatory index and residual SYNTAX score (r=0.350, P <.001). In the receiver operating characteristic curve analysis, the systemic immune-inflammatory index with an optimal threshold value of 1025.1 could detect the presence of a high residual SYNTAX score with 73.8% sensitivity and 72.3% specificity.Conclusion: Systemic immune-inflammatory index, an inexpensive and easily measurable laboratory variable, was an independent predictor of the increased residual SYNTAX score in patients with ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction.
