The prognostic capacities of nutritional status and inflammation in patients with acute myocardial infarction (AMI) have attracted increasing interest. However, the combined usefulness of the Controlling Nutritional Status (CONUT) score and neutrophil-to-lymphocyte ratio (NLR) in predicting adverse outcomes has not been investigated. The aim of our study was to investigate the relationship between the CONUT score and the NLR in patients with AMI and assessing the potential of these factors as prognostic markers.In this retrospective study, we reviewed the medical records of consecutive patients aged 65 years or older who were diagnosed with AMI and who underwent primary coronary intervention. We assessed the nutritional and inflammatory statuses using the CONUT score and the NLR, respectively. The NLR and CONUT score in the major adverse cardiovascular event (MACE) (+) patients were significantly higher than those in the MACE (-) patients. The areas under the receiver operating characteristic curves of the NLR and CONUT score were 0.71 and 0.77, respectively. The Kaplan-Meier analysis showed that patients with a high NLR (≥6.07) and CONUT score (≥3.5) had the worst prognoses. The multivariate Cox proportional hazards analyses suggested that the CONUT score was an independent predictor.The CONUT score was proven to be a significant prognostic factor of clinical outcomes in patients with AMI. However, further research in this area is needed to more fully understand the relationship among nutritional status, inflammation, and cardiovascular diseases, which might help reduce MACEs in patients with AMI.
