Naples Prognostic Score and Prediction of Left Ventricular Ejection Fraction in STEMI Patients.

The Naples score is a new prognostic score developed according to inflammatory and nutritional status and frequently evaluated in cancer patients. The present study aimed to evaluate using the Naples prognostic score (NPS) to predict the development of decreased left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) after acute ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI). The study has a multicenter and retrospective design and included 2280 patients with STEMI who underwent primary percutaneous coronary intervention (pPCI) between 2017 and 2022. All participants were divided into 2 groups according to their NPS. The relationship between these 2 groups and LVEF was evaluated. The low-Naples risk group (Group-1) included 799 patients, and the high-Naples risk group (Group-2) had 1481 patients. Hospital mortality, shock, and no-reflow rates were found to be higher in Group 2 compared with Group 1 (
