Abstract
Objective: The present study aims to investigate whether the addition of homocysteine level to the Global Registry of Acute Coronary Events (GRACE) risk score enhances its predictive value for clinical outcomes in ST-elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI).Methods: A total of 1143 consecutive patients with STEMI were included in this prospective cohort study. Homocysteine was detected, and the GRACE score was calculated. The predictive power of the GRACE score alone or combined with homocysteine was assessed by the receiver operating characteristic (ROC) analysis, methods of net reclassification improvement (NRI) and integrated discrimination improvement (IDI).Results: During a median follow-up period of 36.7 months, 271 (23.7%) patients reached the clinical endpoints. It showed that the GRACE score and homocysteine could independently predict all-cause death [GRACE: HR=1.031 (1.024-1.039), p< 0.001; homocysteine: HR=1.023 (1.018-1.028), p< 0.001] and MACE [GRACE: HR=1.008 (1.005-1.011), p< 0.001; homocysteine: HR=1.022 (1.018-1.025), p< 0.001]. When they were used in combination to assess the clinical outcomes, the area under the ROC curve significantly increased from 0.786 to 0.884 (95% CI=0.067-0.128, Z=6.307, p< 0.001) for all-cause death and from 0.678 to 0.759 (95% CI=0.055-0.108, Z=5.943, p< 0.001) for MACE. The addition of homocysteine to the GRACE model improved NRI (all-cause death: 0.575, p< 0.001; MACE: 0.621, p=0.008) and IDI (all-cause death: 0.083, p< 0.001; MACE: 0.130, p=0.016), indicating effective discrimination and reclassification.Conclusion: Both the GRACE score and homocysteine are significant and independent predictors for clinical outcomes in patients with STEMI. A combination of them can develop a more predominant prediction for clinical outcomes in these patients.
