Prognostic Significance of Monocyte to High-density Lipoprotein Ratio in Patients With Chronic Coronary Artery Occlusion

Objective: Monocyte to high-density lipoprotein ratio (MHR) is a biomarker of inflammatory response. In this study, we investigated the relationship between MHR and mortality in patients with chronic coronary artery occlusion (CTO). Method: Retrospective observational study including 493 patients over a follow up period of 73 months. Blood samples were taken before cardiac catheterization for coronary angiography. Results: Median follow-up was 48 months(26-73) . Patients were seperated into two groups: (I) MHR <17.68 (n=278, 95 females) and (II) MHR ≥17.68 (n=215, 45 females). Mortality was considerably higher in MHR II than in MHR I (n=70 vs. n=43; p<0,001). MHR was an independent predictor of mortality (OR: 1.089, 95% [CI]: 1.055-1.124, p<0,001). Lower survival rates were found in MHR II on Kaplan-Meier analyses when compared to that of MHR I (75.223±2.670 vs. 89.220±2.102, p<0,001). Conclusions: As a simple, easy applicable and universal marker, MHR may be a parameter that predicts mortality risk and survival time in CTO patients.
