Why the study?
The clinical predictive value of pre-infarction angina combined with mean platelet volume to lymphocyte count ratio for no-reflow and short-term mortality in STEMI patients undergoing PCI required investigation.
Does the combination of pre-infarction angina and mean platelet volume to lymphocyte count ratio predict no-reflow and 90-day mortality in STEMI patients undergoing PCI?
Population
1009 STEMI patients who had undergone PCI
Comparison
4 groups based on occurrence of PIA and MPVLR above or below cutoff
Design
Cohort study
Follow-up
90 days

May support risk stratification in STEMI PCI; hypothesis-generating and requires prospective validation before practice change.
Does the combination of pre-infarction angina and mean platelet volume to lymphocyte count ratio predict no-reflow and 90-day mortality in STEMI patients undergoing PCI?
The combination of pre-infarction angina and MPVLR provides a strong predictive value for no-reflow and short-term mortality in STEMI patients undergoing PCI.
