چکیده

مقدمه: بیماری‌های قلبی- عروقی، یکی از دلایل اصلی مرگ و میر در ایران و جهان می‌باشد. با توجه به این که التهاب نقش اساسی در فرایند آترواسکلروز بازی می‌کند، بررسی عوامل التهابی به عنوان عامل ایجاد کننده‌ی وقایع قلبی- عروقی، می‌تواند مفید باشد. بنابراین، هدف از انجام این مطالعه، بررسی ارتباط نسبت نوتروفیل به لنفوسیت با وسعت تنگی عروق کرونر در بیماران تحت آنژیوگرافی عروق کرونر بود.روش‌ها: این مطالعه، به صورت مقطعی بر روی 372 بیمار تحت آنژیوگرافی عروق کرونر در سال 1395 به علت سندرم کرونری حاد بدون افزایش قطعه‌ی ST انجام گرفت. پس از اخذ رضایت از بیماران و ثبت اطلاعات دموگرافیک، نوتروفیل به لنفوسیت و وسعت درگیری عروق کرونری در بیماران ثبت شد. آزمون‌های 2χ و ANOVA جهت مقایسه‌ی داده‌ها استفاده شد.یافته‌ها: ارتباط مستقیم و معنی‌داری میان نوتروفیل به لنفوسیت خونی و وسعت درگیری عروق کرونر دیده شد (125/0 = r و 016/0 = P). همچنین، با بررسی دقت تشخیصی نوتروفیل به لنفوسیت در تشخیص بیماری‌های عروق کرونر، مشخص شد که بهترین نقطه‌ی برش برابر با 4/2 و سطح زیر منحنی Receiver operating characteristic (ROC) برابر با 669/0 بود که حساسیت در این نقطه‌ی برش برابر با 4/72 درصد و ویژگی برابر با 3/58 درصد به دست آمد.نتیجه‌گیری: با توجه به ارتباط مستقیم و معنی‌دار میان نوتروفیل به لنفوسیت با درگیری عروق کرونر، می‌توان از این عامل در جهت پیش‌بینی درگیری و وسعت درگیری عروق کرونر استفاده کرد.

چکیده [English]

Background: Cardiovascular diseases are the leading cause of mortality in Iran and in the world. Considering the importance of inflammation in atherosclerosis, studying inflammatory factors and their contribution to cardiovascular diseases is essential. Accordingly, this study evaluated the link between neutrophil to lymphocyte ratio (NLR) and coronary artery stenosis in patients undergoing coronary angiography.Methods: This cross-sectional study was performed on 372 patients under coronary angiography due to non-ST elevation-acute coronary syndrome (NSTE-ACS). In addition to demographic characteristics, neutrophil to lymphocyte ratio and the extent of coronary artery disease (CAD) were measured in patients. Chi-square and ANOVA tests were used to compare the data.Findings: There was a direct and significant association between neutrophil to lymphocyte ratio and the extent of coronary artery disease involvement (r = 0.125, P = 0.016). Moreover, by examining the diagnosis accuracy of the neutrophil to lymphocyte ratio in coronary artery disease, it was found that the best cut-off point was 2.4, the area under curve (ROC) was 0.69, with sensitivity of 72.4% and specificity of 58.3%.Conclusion: Neutrophil to lymphocyte ratio is directly and significantly associated to the extent of involvement of coronary arteries, and it can be used to predict the involvement and extent of coronary artery disease.
