摘要

Background

The fibrinogen to albumin ratio (FAR) is a novel inflammatory indicator correlating with the severity of coronary artery disease (CAD). An indicator of atherosclerosis is the Castelli Risk Index 2 (CRI-2=LDL-C/HDL-C). Yet, little research has focused on the link between both of indicators and CAD in different glucose metabolic states. Thus, this study aimed to investigate the association between FAR, CRI-2, and the severity of coronary artery lesions in patients with CAD in different glucose metabolic states.

Method

In this investigation, coronary angiography was performed about 2825 individuals suffering from symptomatic CAD at Tianjin Union Medical Center from 2016–2023.The number of stenotic arteries in the coronary arteries was counted. The Gensini scores were taken into account. Normal glucose regulation (NGR), pre-diabetes mellitus (Pre-DM), and diabetes mellitus (DM) were the three categories of glucose status according to the WHO diabetes guidelines. Patients were also divided into FAR index and CRI-2 quartiles to look into the link between FAR index and CRI-2 and coronary artery lesions in CAD patients with different glucose metabolic states. Receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curves were constructed to analyze the predictive value of the FAR index and CRI-2 for coronary artery lesions.

Result

According to logistic regression analysis, the FAR index and CRI-2 were statistically associated with coronary artery disease (P < 0.05). The FAR index was linked with severity of coronary artery lesions regardless of glucose metabolism states (P < 0.05). The CRI-2 was strongly linked with severity of coronary artery lesions in both NGR and DM status (P < 0.05). Yet, there was no statistical significance in Pre-DM states (P > 0.05). The FAR index and CRI-2 exhibited higher regions underneath the ROC curve in forecasting severity of coronary artery lesions.

Conclusion

The FAR index and CRI-2 were significantly associated with severity of coronary artery lesions in different glucose metabolic states. FAR index and CRI-2 have predictive value for coronary artery lesions.
