Prognostic information is important for the management of acute coronary syndrome (ACS). Our aim was to evaluate Synergy between PCI with Taxus and Cardiac Surgery (SYNTAX) score-II (SSII) for predicting contrast induced nephropathy (CIN) and one-year major adverse cardiac events (MACE) in ACS patients. Coronary angiographic recordings of 1304 ACS patients were retrospectively examined. Predictive values of SYNTAX score (SS), SSII-percutaneous coronary intervention (SSII-PCI), SSII-coronary artery bypass graft (SSII-CABG) scores for CIN and MACE were assessed. Combination of CIN and MACE ratios constituted primary composite end-point. Patients with SSII-PCI scores >32.55 were compared with patients with lower scores. All of the three scoring systems predicted the composite primary end-point [SS: Area under the curve (AUC): .718, P < .001 (95% CI: .689-.747), SSII-PCI: AUC: .824, P < .001 (95% CI: .800-.849), SSII-CABG: AUC: .778, P < .001 (95% CI: .751-.805)]. Comparison of AUC of receiver operating characteristic curves showed that SSII-PCI score had better predictive value than that of SS and SSII-CABG scores. In multivariate analysis, the only predictor of the primary composite end-point was SSII-PCI score (odds ratio: 1.126, 95% CI: 1.107-1.146, P < .001). SSII-PCI score was a valuable tool for prediction of shock, CABG, myocardial infarction, stent thrombosis, development of CIN and one-year mortality.
