Abstract:
Coronary computed tomography angiography can evaluate coronary arterial plaque composition with high resolution. We aimed to determine and compare the values of systemic immune-inflammation index (SII) and systemic inflammation-response index (SIRI) in different plaque types. Highest values of SIRI and SII were found in mixed plaque type followed by non-calcified plaque type. SII value of 463.07 predicted one-year major adverse cardiac events (MACE) with a sensitivity of 72.7% and specificity of 64.3% and SIRI value of 1.14 predicted one-year MACE with a sensitivity of 93% and specificity of 62%. Paired analysis of area under the curve (AUC) of the receiver operating characteristic curves showed that SIRI had higher AUC than coronary calcium score and SII. Univariate logistic regression results showed that age, creatinine level, coronary calcium score, SII, and SIRI were the independent predictors of one-year MACE. According to the results of multivariate regression analysis, after adjusting other factors, age, creatinine level, and SIRI were the independent predictors of one-year MACE. SIRI seemed to improve the risk prediction in coronary artery disease. Therefore, special attention may need to be paid to patients who have a high SIRI.
