摘要

Background

While loss of Y chromosome (LOY), a common somatic alteration with aging, has been associated with cardiovascular diseases, its specific impact on ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) remains underexplored.

Methods

This study enrolled 928 males undergoing primary percutaneous coronary intervention for STEMI to investigate the impact of LOY in blood cells on all-cause mortality. LOY was measured in males using droplet digital polymerase chain reaction technique. The primary outcome was all-cause mortality.

Results

During a median of 3.99-year follow-up, 93 males (10.0%) died. Of these, 39 (4.2%) died within 1 year, 56 (6.0%) within 2 years, and 67 (7.2%) within 3 years. Compared to males with LOY < 18% (the 90th percentile), those with LOY ≥ 18% had an increased mortality after multivariable adjustment including age, with adjusted hazard ratios (HRs) of 2.45 (95% confidence interval [CI]: 1.16–5.15; P = 0.018), 2.11 (95% CI: 1.11–4.01; P = 0.024), and 1.88 (95% CI: 1.02–3.45; P = 0.043) at 1-, 2-, and 3-year follow-up, respectively. Among males without prior MI, those with LOY ≥ 18% have higher mortality than those with LOY < 18% (adjusted HR 1.93; 95% CI: 1.01–3.67; P = 0.045), whereas no significant association is observed in males with prior MI.

Conclusions

LOY ( ≥ 18%) is associated with an increased 1-, 2-, and 3-year mortality in male STEMI patients and may serve as a potential biomarker for risk stratification.
