    Abstract:
    BACKGROUND: We assessed the value of monocyte to high-density lipoprotein cholesterol ratio (MHR) in predicting in-hospital and 5-year mortality and major adverse cardiovascular events (MACE) in ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) patients. METHODS: A group of 1,598 patients were enrolled and divided into tertiles according to MHR values. The effects of different variables on clinical outcomes were assessed by Cox regression analysis. RESULTS: MHR was found as an independent predictor of in-hospital mortality (HR = 3.745, 95% CI 1.308-5.950), in-hospital MACE (HR 1.501, 95% CI 1.015-1.993, p = 0.022) and 5-year mortality (HR = 2.048, 95% CI 1.225-4.091, p = 0.014) and 5-year MACE (HR 1.285, 95% CI 1.064-1.552, p = 0.009). CONCLUSIONS: MHR is an independent predictor of in-hospital and long term mortality and MACE in STEMI.
