Key result
A high-sensitivity CRP to albumin ratio ≥0.114 was independently associated with a significantly higher incidence of in-hospital and short-term major adverse cardiac events in patients with ACS.
Why the study?
The study was conducted to examine the correlation between high-sensitivity CRP to albumin ratio and in-hospital and short-term major adverse cardiac events in patients with ACS.
Does a high high-sensitivity C-reactive protein to albumin ratio predict in-hospital and short-term MACEs in patients with acute coronary syndrome?
Population
652 consecutive patients hospitalized for ACS
Comparison
High CAR (≥0.114) vs low CAR (<0.114)

The high-sensitivity CRP to albumin ratio (CAR) is an independent predictor of in-hospital and short-term MACEs in patients with acute coronary syndrome, offering a potential tool for risk stratification.

Does a high high-sensitivity C-reactive protein to albumin ratio predict in-hospital and short-term MACEs in patients with acute coronary syndrome?

Wang et al. (2019) conducted a cohort in Acute Coronary Syndrome (n=652). High-sensitivity CRP to albumin ratio (CAR) ≥0.114 vs. Low CAR (<0.114) was evaluated on Major adverse cardiac events (cardiogenic shock, reinfarction, acute heart failure, and all-cause death). A high-sensitivity CRP to albumin ratio ≥0.114 was independently associated with a significantly higher incidence of in-hospital and short-term major adverse cardiac events in patients with ACS.
