Hemoglobin-to-Creatinine Ratio Predicts One-Year Adverse Clinical Outcomes in ST-Elevation Myocardial Infarction: Retrospective and Propensity Score Matched Analysis.

ABSTRACT: Background/Objectives: Anemia and renal impairment are key predictors of adverse outcomes in acute coronary syndromes (ACSs). The hemoglobin-to-creatinine (Hb/Cr) ratio combines these parameters into a simple index. This study aimed to evaluate its prognostic value at discharge in patients with ST-elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI). Methods: The primary endpoint was one-year all-cause mortality; secondary endpoints included major bleeding and the composite of all-cause mortality or reinfarction. Optimal Hb/Cr cut-off values were identified using Liu's method. Multivariable logistic regression and propensity score matching were used to assess associations with outcomes. Results: We analyzed 11,236 STEMI patients from the PRAISE registry with available hemoglobin an
