Özet

Aim: The aim of the study was to investigate the monocyte count to HDL cholesterol ratio (MHR) on the prognosis of patients with hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM). Materials & methods: A total of 411 patients with HCM were assessed. The primary end point was cardiovascular death or malignant arrhythmic events. Results: During the follow-up, primary end point was developed in 54 (13.1%) patients. Receiver operating characteristic (ROC) analysis showed that using a cut-off level of 14.57, MHR predicted the occurrence of primary end point with a sensitivity of 72% and specificity of 72%. In the multivariate model, high MHR was the only significant predictor of the primary end point. Conclusion: This study showed that higher MHR level is an independent predictor of malignant arrhythmia and death in patients with HCM.
