| Abstract | High sensitive C-reactive protein (hs-CRP) levels are associated with short- and long-term mortality in patients with acute coronary syndrome (ACS). We investigated whether baseline hs-CRP levels are associated with burden of coronary atherosclerosis assessed by SYNTAX score (SXScore).We enrolled 321 patients with ACS who underwent coronary angiography. The patients were divided into tertiles according to the SXScore: low SXScore (≤ 22), and intermediate-high SXScore (≥ 23).Subjects in the intermediate-high SXScore tertile had higher serum hs-CRP levels compare to low SXScore tertile patients (7.7 ± 3.4 mg/L versus 4.9 ± 2.5 mg/L, P < 0.001). The mean age of patients and prevalance of diabetes in the intermediate-high SXScore tertile were significantly higher than in the low SXScore tertile (63 ± 13 versus 58 ± 12 years P = 0.001 for age, P = 0.007 for diabetes). Multivariate logistic regression analysis showed that the strongest predictors of high SXScore were increased serum hs-CRP levels (OR: 1.14) together with multivessel disease (OR: 0.23), left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) (OR: 0.90), and troponin levels (OR: 1.12).Serum hs-CRP levels on admission in patients with ACS could predict the severity and complexity of coronary atherosclerosis together with multivessel disease, LVEF, and troponin levels. Thus, increased serum levels of hs-CRP were one of the strong predictors of high SXScore in ACS patients. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.

NDLI is a conglomeration of freely available or institutionally contributed or donated or publisher managed contents. Almost all these contents are hosted and accessed from respective sources. The responsibility for authenticity, relevance, completeness, accuracy, reliability and suitability of these contents rests with the respective organization and NDLI has no responsibility or liability for these. Every effort is made to keep the NDLI portal up and running smoothly unless there are some unavoidable technical issues.
Ministry of Education, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT), has sponsored and funded the National Digital Library of India (NDLI) project.
