AB  - We assessed the relationship between the severity of coronary artery disease 
      assessed by SYNTAX score (SS) and neutrophil to lymphocyte ratio (N:L ratio) in 
      patients with ST elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI). In total, 840 patients 
      with STEMI in whom primary percutaneous coronary intervention was performed were 
      prospectively included (622 male, 218 female; mean age 58.6 +/- 12.4 years). Total 
      and differential leukocyte counts and other biochemical markers were measured at 
      admission. Patients were categorized into tertiles on the basis of SS. The N:L 
      ratio of SShigh group was higher compared with SSlow and SSmid groups (P < .001 
      for all). Multivariate regression analysis showed that N:L ratio (beta = .277, P < 
      .001), ejection fraction (beta = -.086, P = .012), age (beta = .104, P = .004), and 
      diabetes (beta = .152, P < .001) were the independent predictors for SS in patients 
      with STEMI.
