The relationship between monocyte HDL-C ratio and reduced left ventricular systolic function in patients among acute myocarditis

Abstract
Myocarditis contributes to the global burden of cardiovascular disease mainly through sudden death and chronic cardiomyopathy in young age groups. Monocyte/high-density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL-C) ratio (MHR) has developed as a new inflammation biomarker. In this study has investigated that relationship between admission MHR levels and the reduced left ventricular systolic functions after acute myocarditis. The study included a total of 156 consecutive cases wanted by their doctors to undergo cardiovascular magnetic resonance imaging for “acute myocarditis” as the clinical diagnosis between 2009 and 2017 at our hospital. Study participants were split into two groups; group I patients (patients with LVEF
