Background: Inflammation plays a crucial role in the progression of acute coronary syndrome.
Aims: The aim of this study was to investigate the relationship between the SYNTAX score and new inflammatory markers including albumin-globulin ratio (AGR), C-reactive protein-to-albumin ratio (CAR), fibrinogen-to-albumin ratio (FAR), neutrophil-to-albumin ratio (NAR), and neutrophil percentage-to-albumin ratio (NPAR) in STEMI and NSTEMI patients.
Methods: The study involved 53 STEMI and 64 NSTEMI patients, and each patient group was evaluated separately.

Human regulatory T cells (Treg) suppress other immune cells. Their dysfunction contributes to the pathophysiology of autoimmune diseases, including type 1 diabetes (T1D). Infusion of Tregs is being clinically evaluated as a novel way to prevent or treat T1D.

The authors investigated the value of novel inflammatory markers, systemic immune-inflammation index and C-reactive protein to albumin ratio (CAR), to predict in-hospital mortality in patients with non-ST elevation myocardial infarction (NSTEMI). A total of 308 patients who underwent percutaneous coronary intervention because of NSTEMI were retrospectively included in the study. Killip classification, Thrombolysis in Myocardial Infarction score, SYNTAX score, and CAR and systemic immune-inflammation index values were calculated.

In patients undergoing primary percutaneous coronary intervention (pPCI) due to ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI), an increased intracoronary thrombus burden is a strong predictive factor for adverse cardiovascular events. The C-reactive protein (CRP)-serum albumin (SA) ratio (CAR), used as an inflammatory marker, is closely associated with thrombogenicity. In this study, we investigated the relationship between coronary thrombus burden and CAR in patients undergoing pPCI due to newly diagnosed STEMI.

Background: Limited data are available on the risk of periprocedural myocardial infarction (MI) in patients undergoing complex versus noncomplex percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI).
Methods: We assessed the risk of periprocedural MI according to the fourth Universal definition of myocardial infarction (UDMI) and several other criteria among patients undergoing elective PCI in a prospective, single-center registry. Complex PCI included at least one of the following: 3 coronary vessels treated, ≥3 stents implanted, ≥3 lesions treated, bifurcation with 2 stents implanted, total stent length >60 mm, treatment of chronic total occlusion, and use of rotational atherectomy.
