Coronary no-reflow phenomenon in ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) is associated with a poor clinical outcome. Although its pathophysiology is not fully understood, a deregulated systemic inflammatory response plays an important role. We aimed to explore the relationship between platelet\lymphocyte ratio (PLR) and no-reflow in patients with acute STEMI who were treated with a primary percutaneous coronary intervention (PPCI).
