Özet
Left ventricular (LV) apical thrombus formation is a well described and clinically important complication of acute myocardial infarction (MI) with a substantial risk of thromboembolism. Alterations in the inflammatory status may contribute to this complication. The aim of this study was to evaluate the predictive role of the systemic immune-inflammation index (SII) in identifying high risk patients who will develop an apical thrombus formation during the acute phase of anterior transmural infarction. Consecutive 1753 patients (mean age: 61.5 ± 9.6 years; male: 63.8 %) with first acute anterior MI who underwent primary percutaneous coronary intervention were assessed. Patients were divided into 2 groups according to the presence of apical thrombus. SII was calculated using the following equation: neutrophil (N) × platelet (P) ÷ lymphocyte (L). LV apical thrombus was detected on transthoracic echocardiogram in 99 patients (5.6%). Patients with an apical thrombus had lower LV ejection fraction, prolonged time from symptoms to treatment, higher rate of post-percutaneous coronary intervention thrombolysis in myocardial infarction flow ≤1 and significantly higher mean high-sensitivity C-reactive protein, and SII values and lower lymphocyte than those without an apical thrombus. Admission SII level was found to be a significant predictor for early LV apical thrombus formation complicating a first-ever anterior MI. This simple calculated tool may be used to identify high-risk patients for LV thrombus and individualization of targeted therapy.
