Özet
Objective: Treadmill exercise stress testing for identifying patients with a higher likelihood of coronary artery disease (CAD) before elective coronary angiography is recommended in the current guidelines. In this study, we aimed to evaluate the changes in the hematological parameters before and after exercise stress test in relation with the presence of CAD. Methods: A total of 113 patients with chest pain who underwent treadmill exercise testing and coronary angiography were included in this study. Results: Neutrophil count (4.38±0.99 vs 5.19±0.93, P<.001), and neutrophil to lymphocyte ratio (NLR) (2.04±0.63 vs 2.41±0.78, P<.001) were significantly elevated after treadmill exercise test in all the patients. Increase in the NLR after exercise test was significantly higher in patients with positive exercise test (n=68) than negative exercise test (n=45) (0.49±0.58 vs 0.19±0.44, P=.016). The sensitivity and specificity of treadmill exercise testing according to coronary angiography was 79% and 64%, respectively. A cut-off point of 0.2 for the change in the NLR in addition to positive treadmill exercise testing had 91% sensitivity and 92% specificity in predicting significant coronary artery stenosis (AUC:0.913, 95% CI: 0.805-1.000, P<.001). Conclusions: Neutrophil to lymphocyte ratio is an important inflammatory marker that can contribute to treadmill ECG testing in predicting CAD.
