Controlling Nutritional Status (CONUT) score for predicting all-cause mortality in patients who underwent percutaneous coronary intervention after acute myocardial infarction: a cohort study.

ABSTRACT:

Background

Controlling Nutritional Status (CONUT) score, a novel marker reflecting the malnutrition, has been demonstrated to predict all-cause mortality and major adverse cardiovascular events (MACE) in a wide range of diseases. The research intends to assess the clinical effects of malnutrition on patients who have percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) after acute myocardial infarction (AMI).

Methods

In this retrospective observational study, we consecutively enrolled 3258 patients diagnosed with AMI from 2010 to 2016. Patients were categorized into three groups based on the CONUT score: normal, mild malnutrition, and moderate and severe malnutrition. The primary outcome was all-cause mortality. We develop cox proportional hazards models to investigate the relationship
