ABSTRACT: Background
It is well-known that systemic inflammation plays a crucial role in the pathogenesis and prognosis of acute myocardial infarction (AMI). The systemic immune-inflammation index (SII, platelet × neutrophil/lymphocyte ratio) is a novel index that is used for the characterization of the severity of systemic inflammation. Recent studies have identified the high SII level as an independent predictor of poor outcomes in patients with AMI. We aimed to investigate the prognostic implications of SII in AMI patients with and without diabetes mellitus (DM).Methods
We included 2111 patients with AMI from February 2014 to March 2018. Multivariable Cox regression analyses were performed to estimate the hazard ratios (HRs) and 95% confidence intervals (CIs) of all-cause death an
