| Summary: | ObjectiveThe objective of this research was to investigate the correlation between the Monocyte-to-high-density lipoprotein-cholesterol ratio (MHR), Neutrophil gelatinase-associated lipocalin (NGAL), and Angiotensin II (Ang II) with both short-term and long-term mortality rates in elderly patients with heart failure (HF).MethodsA retrospective cohort study was conducted, encompassing elderly HF patients hospitalized from 2020 to 2023. Multivariable logistic regression analysis was employed to assess the relationship between MHR, NGAL, Ang II, and mortality risk.ResultsThe predictive power of these biomarkers for mortality in patients with HF was determined using the area under the receiver operating characteristic curve (AUC). Each of the biomarkers—MHR, NGAL, and Ang II—was linked to an increased risk of mortality at one month (OR = 1.007, 95% CI: 1.003–1.012), (OR = 1.004, 95% CI: 1.001–1.007), (OR = 1.002, 95% CI: 1.001–1.004) and at one year (OR = 1.007, 95% CI: 1.002–1.011), (OR = 1.004, 95% CI: 1.001–1.008), (OR = 1.003, 95% CI: 1.001–1.006) in the elderly patients with HF. The AUC for MHR, NGAL, and Ang II in forecasting one-month mortality were 0.740 (95% CI: 0.668–0.811), 0.659 (95% CI: 0.581–0.738), and 0.628 (95% CI: 0.547–0.710), respectively. For one-year mortality, the AUC values were 0.728 (95% CI: 0.655–0.800), 0.641 (95% CI: 0.560–0.721), and 0.627 (95% CI: 0.546–0.708), respectively. The optimal thresholds for MHR, NGAL, and Ang II in predicting one-month mortality were identified as 0.52, 85 ng/ml, and 25 pg/ml, respectively, while for one-year mortality, the thresholds were 0.50, 70 ng/ml, and 24 pg/ml, respectively.ConclusionsMHR, NGAL, and Ang II emerge as promising indicators for mortality prediction in HF patients. Among these, MHR stands out as potentially the most reliable predictor of mortality in the elderly with HF. |
