    The study analyzed 709 ICU patients from the emergency department to assess the association of inflammatory indices with in-hospital mortality.

  • 2

    Higher median values of Multi-Inflammatory Index (MII) and C-reactive protein-to-albumin ratio (CAR) were found in non-survivors compared to survivors.

  • 3

    Cox regression analyses indicated that CAR and all three MII variants were associated with in-hospital mortality.

  • 4

    Receiver operating characteristic analyses revealed limited discriminatory performance for MII variants and CAR in predicting mortality.

  • 5

    The findings suggest that admission-based inflammatory indices serve as adjunctive markers rather than standalone prognostic tools.
