Abstract
Aim: The present study aimed to examine the correlation between high-sensitivity CRP to albumin ratio (CAR) and in-hospital and short-term major adverse cardiac events (MACEs) in patients with acute coronary syndrome (ACS). Materials & methods: We analyzed 652 consecutive patients who had been hospitalized for ACS. The MACEs were defined as cardiogenic shock, reinfarction, acute heart failure and all-cause death. Results: The incidence rate of MACEs was significantly higher in the high CAR (≥0.114) group than in the low CAR (<0.114) group. Multivariate analysis revealed that CAR, hs-CRP and albumin were independent predictors for increased risk for MACEs. Conclusion: The CAR was independently correlated with in-hospital and short-term MACEs and can be used for risk stratification in patients with ACS.
