Article Abstract
Background: Systemic immune-inflammation index (SII, platelet × neutrophil/lymphocyte ratio), a new marker of inflammation, is associated with adverse cardiovascular events, but its relationship with coronary slow flow phenomenon (CSFP) is unclear. Therefore, we aimed to investigate the relationship between SII and CSFP.
Methods: We enrolled consecutive patients who presented with chest pain, with normal/near-normal coronary angiography findings (n = 89 as CSFP group; n = 167 as control group). The baseline characteristics, laboratory parameters and angiographic characteristics of the two groups were compared.
Results: SII levels were significantly higher in the CSFP group than in the control group (409.7 ± 17.7 vs. 396.7 ± 12.7, p < 0.001). A significant positive correlation between SII and the mean thrombolysis in myocardial infarction frame count (mTFC) was found (r = 0.624, p < 0.001). SII increased with the number of coronary arteries involved in CSFP. In multivariate logistic regression analysis, SII/10 was an independent predictor of CSFP (odds ratio: 1.739, p < 0.001). In addition, the SII level > 404.29 was a predictor of CSFP with 67.4% sensitivity and 71.9% specificity.
Conclusions: SII can predict the occurrence of CSFP.

Association of inflammatory index with the severity of disease in patients with acute myocarditis: A retrospective observational study.

Department of Cardiovascular Medicine, The First Hospital of Jilin University, Changchun, China.
Purpose: This research aimed to investigate the association between neutrophil-percentage-to-albumin ratio (NPAR), systemic immune-inflammation index (SII), systemic inflammation response index (SIRI), and aggregate index of systemic inflammation (AISI) with disease severity in patients diagnosed with acute myocarditis.
Methods: A total of 185 patients were diagnosed with acute myocarditis at the First Hospital of Jilin University between 2018 and 2024. The related values of NPAR, SII, SIRI, and AISI were computed based on the pertinent blood indices that were acquired within 12 hours of admission.
The Systemic Immune-Inflammation Index Predicts Long-Term Outcomes in Patients With Unstable Angina and Diabetes After Revascularization.

Background: The incidence of unstable angina (UA), a type of cardiovascular disease (CVD), has increased in recent years. Meanwhile, timely percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) or percutaneous transluminal coronary angioplasty (PTCA) procedures are crucial for patients with UA who also have diabetes mellitus (DM). Additionally, exploring other factors that may influence the prognosis of these patients could provide long-term benefits.

Introduction Currently, treatment regimens incorporating immune checkpoint inhibitors (ICIs) are the standard of care for locally advanced or metastatic urothelial carcinoma (la/mUC). This study aimed to investigate the association between the neutrophil-to-eosinophil ratio (NER) and the occurrence of immune-related adverse events (irAEs) as well as treatment outcomes. Methods This multicenter retrospective study examined patients with la/mUC treated with ICIs between January 2017 and December 2022.

Background: Increasing evidence has indicated the potential correlation between Systemic Immune-Inflammation Index (SII) and the incidence and prognosis of patients with heart failure (HF). However, the association remains unraveled in the existing research.
Methods: A literature search was systematically conducted across PubMed, Embase, Web of Science, and the Cochrane Library from their respective inceptions to July 2024, aiming to identify studies investigating the association between SII and both the incidence and clinical outcomes of HF patients.
Background: Based on the widespread use of the systemic immune-inflammation index (SII), neutrophil-lymphocyte ratio (NLR), platelet-lymphocyte ratio (PLR), and lymphocyte-monocyte ratio (LMR), markers, we aimed to calculate and compare the reference intervals (RIs) of these indices in adults, using both nonparametric method according to the Clinical and Laboratory Standards Institute's (CLSI) EP28-A3C:2010 guideline and refineR algorithm using a large dataset.
Methods: We analyzed data from 293,585 adults (18 - 65 years) retrospectively obtained from complete blood count results (using laboratory information system). The study involved a two-stage outlier exclusion process.
