The Importance of Total Neutrophil Count and Neutrophil/Lymphocyte Ratio in ST Elevation Myocardial Infarction
Dear Editor, We have read with a great interest the published article by Ghaffari et al. entitled with “The predictive value of total neutrophil count and neutrophil/lymphocyte ratio in predicting in-hospital mortality and complications after STEMI”.1 Authors have suggested that complete blood count (CBC) test might help to identify ST elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) patients and higher...
متن کاملNeutrophil Lymphocyte Ratio: APrognostic Marker in Acute ST Elevation Myocardial Infarction.
OBJECTIVE To investigate if neutrophil lymphocyte ratio (NLR) predicts in-hospital adverse events and mortality, and shortterm (30-day) mortality in ST-elevated myocardial infarction (STEMI) patients thrombolysed with streptokinase (SK). STUDY DESIGN An observational study. PLACE AND DURATION OF STUDY Rawalpindi Institute of Cardiology, from June 2014 till January 2015. METHODOLOGY The ST...
متن کاملNeutrophil to lymphocyte ratio predicts SYNTAX score in patients with non-ST segment elevation myocardial infarction.
In this study we aimed to investigate whether there is an association between the neutrophil to lymphocyte ratio (NLR) and severity of coronary artery disease (CAD) in patients with non-ST segment elevation myocardial infarction (NSTEMI) using the SYNTAX score (SXscore). A total of 414 patients with NSTEMI who underwent coronary angiography were enrolled in the study. NLR was measured for all p...
متن کاملST-Elevation Myocardial Infarction
Background—In the United States, efforts are underway to improve timely access to percutaneous coronary intervention in ST-elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI). The Joint Commission (TJC) and the American College of Cardiology National Cardiovascular Data Registry (NCDR) have developed standardized definitions and clinical performance measures for STEMI. The purpose of this study was to dete...
متن کاملStudy of the Duration, Outcomes, and Related Factors of Reperfusion Therapy in Patients with ST-Segment Elevation Myocardial Infarction
Background and Objective: One of the most important advancements regarding the care of patients with acute myocardial infarction is the administration of anti-coagulation medicines (e.g., streptokinase). However, it must be noticed that this medicine requires rapid and timely administration. Moreover, Percutaneous Coronary Intervention (PCI) is increasingly used as a method of revascularization...
