Inflammatory Indices Derived from Hemogram as Prognostic Markers of Cardiovascular Outcome

Gulali Aktas et al. Burcin Atak Tel Tuba Taslamacioglu Duman

In parallel with the increasing incidence of metabolic disorders, such as obesity and type 2 diabetes mellitus, which increase the incidence of cardiovascular diseases, the incidence of heart conditions is also growing. Many markers are being investigated for the prediction of the prognosis of cardiovascular diseases. In a recent work, Kilic et al. have studied the association of the hemoglobin to red cell distribution width (Hb/RDW) ratio with the long-term survival of patients with acute coronary syndrome.

Acute coronary syndrome is one of the leading causes of death worldwide. Coronary artery disease is one of the most important causes of mortality and morbidity, responsible for approximately 7 million deaths and morbidity in 129 million people annually. The highest increases in the cardiac disease incidence worldwide have occurred in Latin America, the Middle East, and, to a lesser extent, in the Far East, but it varies by region.
