Prognostic significance of inflammation in patients with coronary artery disease at low residual inflammatory risk.

ABSTRACT: Patients with coronary artery disease (CAD) at low residual inflammatory risk are often overlooked in research and practice. This study examined the associations between fourteen inflammatory indicators and all-cause mortality in 5,339 CAD patients with baseline high-sensitivity C-reactive protein (hsCRP) <2 mg/L who received percutaneous coronary intervention and statin and aspirin therapy. The median follow-up time was 2.1 years. Neutrophil-derived systemic inflammatory response index (SIRI) yielded the strongest and most robust association with all-cause mortality among all indicators. Lower hsCRP remained to be associated with a lower risk of all-cause mortality. A newly developed comprehensive inflammation score (CIS) showed better predictive performance than other indicators, which w
