Objective
Recently, several studies has shown that monocyte to high density lipoprotein cholesterol ratio (MHR) are closely related with major adverse outcomes in various cardiovascular diseases. We aimed to investigate whether baseline MHR, an easily available inflammatory and oxidative stress marker, is associated with the severity and complexity of coronary atherosclerosis assessed by SYNTAX score.
Methods
In this cross-sectional study, a total of 1229 consecutive patients with coronary artery disease (CAD) who had undergone coronary angiography for stable angina pectoris were enrolled. The patients were classified two groups, those with low SYNTAX score (≤22) and those with high SYNTAX score (≥23). Multiple logistic regression analysis was used to identify the independent predictors of high SYNTAX score.
