    The study evaluated the prognostic value of platelet-to-HDL cholesterol ratio (PHR) and white blood cell-to-mean platelet volume ratio (WMR) in STEMI patients.

  • 2

    PHR and WMR levels were significantly higher in STEMI patients compared to healthy controls, indicating their potential as biomarkers.

  • 3

    A lower PHR was associated with a greater number and severity of coronary lesions in STEMI patients, highlighting its prognostic significance.

  • 4

    Multivariate analysis identified PHR as an independent risk factor for acute STEMI and moderate-to-severe coronary lesions.

  • 5

    WMR was found to be a useful predictor specifically for the occurrence of STEMI, demonstrating its relevance in cardiovascular risk assessment.
