Key result
Higher pre-procedural systemic immune-inflammation index predicts increased 6-month MACE risk after TAVI.
Why the study?
To evaluate whether the systemic immune-inflammation index has prognostic value for major adverse cardiac events and short-term all-cause mortality in aortic stenosis patients undergoing TAVI.

SII may refine pre-TAVI risk stratification in severe AS; leaves open whether it adds value beyond existing scores in prospective cohorts.

A high pre-procedural systemic immune-inflammation index is a strong independent predictor of 6-month MACEs and mortality in patients undergoing TAVI for severe aortic stenosis.
Tosu et al. (2021) conducted a cohort in Severe aortic stenosis (n=120). Systemic immune-inflammation index (SII) vs. Lower systemic immune-inflammation index was evaluated on Major adverse cardiac events (MACEs) and short-term all-cause mortality at 6 months (HR 1.002, 95% CI 1.001-1.003, p=<0.01). A higher pre-procedural systemic immune-inflammation index independently predicted major adverse cardiac events at 6 months in severe aortic stenosis patients after TAVI (HR 1.002).
