| Abstrakt: | Coronary artery ectasia (CAE) is a rare vascular phenotype characterized by abnormal dilation of blood vessels and disruption of coronary artery blood flow, which may promote thrombosis and an inflammatory response. We performed a cross-sectional study to investigate the association of white blood cells to mean platelet volume ratio (WMR) with CAE. Consecutive eligible patients (n = 492) were divided into two groups: including 238 patients with CAE and 254 patients in the normal coronary artery (NCA) group. WMR, the systemic immune-inflammation index (SII), and neutrophil-to-lymphocyte ratio (NLR) were found to be significantly associated with CAE in both univariate and multivariate logistic regression analyses. In multivariate analysis, the presence of WMR was associated with CAE (the odds ratios (OR) = 1.002, 95% CI: 1.001–1.003, P <.001). In the ROC analysis, the statistics (Z-values) of WMR vs SII and WMR vs NLR were 2.427 and 2.670 and were statistically significant (P =.015 and P =.008), indicating that WMR was superior to SII and NLR in distinguishing WMR. The optimal cut-off value was calculated from the point of maximal sensitivity and specificity by using Youden's index, which was determined to be 635.50. WMR has the potential to be a cost-effective tool to monitor CAE. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR] |
