Abstract:
Objective:To investigate the relationship between neutrophil-to-lymphocyte ratio (NLR) and myocardial injury induced by acute carbon monoxide poisoning.
Methods:A retrospective analysis was performed on 214 patients with acute carbon monoxide poisoning who were admitted to Emergency Depart-ment of Harrison International Peace Hospital, Hebei Medical University, from 2015 to 2017. According to the diagnostic criteria for toxic heart disease and the level of cardiac troponin I (cTnI), a biomarker of cardiac injury, these patients were divided into myocardial injury group (n = 84) and non-myocardial injury group (n=130). The general information of age and sex, as well as routine blood test results and cardiac injury biomarkers on admission, were collected. NLR was calculated and compared between the two groups. The relationship between NLR and cTnI was analyzed. Logistic regression analysis was used to identify the influenc-ing factors for myocardial injury induced by acute carbon monoxide poisoning. The receiver operating charac-teristic curve was used to evaluate the predictive value of NLR on admission for myocardial injury induced by acute carbon monoxide poisoning.
Results:There were significant differences between two groups in male patients, the history of smoking, white blood cell count (WBC), NLR, creatine kinase-MB, and lactate dehydro-genase(P<0.01). In the myocardial injury group, NLR was positively correlated with cTnI (r=0.295, P<0.01). The multivariate logistic regression analysis showed that NLR (odds ratio OR=1.079, 95% confidence inter-val CI: 1.017~1.144, P<0.01), WBC (OR=1.216, 95% CI: 1.098~1.346, P<0.01), and male sex (OR = 2.693, 95% CI: 1.045~6.939, P= 0.05) were independent risk factors for myocardial injury induced by acute carbon monoxide poisoning. In predicting myocardial injury induced by acute carbon monoxide poisoning, NLR on admission had a sensitivity of 85.7% and a specificity of 45.4% at the optimal cut-off value of 4.83.
Conclusion:Increased NLR on admission has a certain predictive value for myocardial injury induced by acute carbon monoxide poisoning.
