Platelet-to-Lymphocyte and Glucose-to-Lymphocyte Ratios as Prognostic Markers in Hospitalized Patients with Acute Coronary Syndrome.

ABSTRACT:

Background

Novel and accessible biomarkers may add to the existing risk stratification schemes in patients with acute coronary syndrome (ACS). The platelet-to-lymphocyte ratio (PLR) and glucose-to-lymphocyte ratio (GLR) have emerged as potential indicators of systemic inflammation and metabolic stress, both of which are pivotal in ACS pathophysiology. The aim of this study was to investigate the prognostic significance of the PLR and GLR in patients with ACS.

Methods

We performed a retrospective cohort study of patients hospitalized with ACS between 2017 and 2023 at Hippokration Hospital of Thessaloniki, Greece. PLR and GLR were calculated from admission blood samples. The primary endpoint was all-cause mortality. Logistic and Cox regression models were used to investigate t
