Prognostic Value of Platelet to Lymphocyte Ratio for Myocardial Infarction: A Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis.

ABSTRACT:

Background

Correlations between platelet-to-lymphocyte ratio (PLR) and prognosis in patients with acute myocardial infarction (AMI) are reported in more studies, though there is no evidence-based data.

Methods

Databases (PubMed, Embase, Web of Science, and Cochrane Library) were searched from their inception to April 19, 2024, to retrieve articles discussing associations between PLR and clinical outcomes in AMI patients. The primary outcomes, comprising mortality and major adverse cardiovascular events (MACE), were assessed with odds ratios (OR) and their 95% confidence intervals (CI). Sensitivity analyses and subgroup analyses were utilized to probe the results' robustness and potential heterogeneity sources. Analysis was carried out utilizing the software of Review Manager
