PG - 108-15 LID - 10.3109/00365513.2013.860619 [doi] AB - AIM: Cardiac troponins are the most preferred biomarkers in the evaluation of acute coronary syndromes (ACS). The aim of our study was to examine the association between high sensitive troponin T (hs-TnT), and neutrophil to lymphocyte ratio (NLR) and the complexity of ACS assessed by SYNTAX Score. METHODS AND RESULTS: 287 patients who underwent coronary angiography were studied (215 male, mean age 62.0 +/- 12.7 years). 133 patients were ST elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI), 154 patients were non-ST elevation (NSTE) ACS . The patients are divided to tertiles according to SYNTAX Score; SYNTAX Score 32 (n = 45). NLR was significantly correlated with SYNTAX Score in both STEMI and NSTE-ACS groups (r = 0.254, p = 0.003, r = 0.419 p < 0.001). Multiple linear regression analysis showed NLR predicted the angiographic severity of ACS assessed by SYNTAX Score in two groups (beta = 0.231, p = 0.004; beta = 0.232, p = 0.003). Hs-TnT was significantly correlated with SYNTAX Score in two groups (r = 0.327, p < 0.001; r = 0.430, p < 0.001). Multiple linear regression analysis showed hs-TnT was independent predictor of SYNTAX Score in STEMI and NSTE-ACS patients (beta = 0.292, p < 0.001; beta = 0.317, p < 0.001). CONCLUSION: Hs-TnT and NLR were significantly correlated with angiographic severity of ACS assessed by SYNTAX Score. FAU - Altun, Burak AU - Altun B AD - Department of Cardiology.
