“…A significant correlation of a high MHR value with high CRP levels (r = 0.396) in patients with infective endocarditis and normal left ventricular ejection fraction was found, reflecting the value of MHR in predicting systemic inflammation (Wei et al, 2017 (Marenzi, Cosentino, & Bartorelli, 2015). A significant positive correlation between MHR and CRP (r = 0.456) was also shown.…”

“…In contrast, HDL-C protects endothelial cells from oxidative stress and inflammation by regulating monocytes activation and monocyte progenitors proliferation, and preventing monocytes assembly into the arterial wall [12][13][14]. High monocyte counts and low HDL-C levels have been shown to be positively associated with inflammation [17][18][19]. Therefore, while monocytes play a pro-inflammatory role, HDL-C functions as a reverse factor in the inflammatory process.…”

“…Our patients with non-functional adrenal adenoma may possibly present in the early stage of inflammation and atherosclerosis, which might be explained why MHR does not associate with non-functional adrenal adenoma. Evidence suggests that CRP value, as a biomarker of systemic inflammation, predicts cardiovascular events and mortality (9,10,37,38). Serum hs-CRP value was reported to be increased in both patients with functional and non-functional adrenal tumor (19,34).…”

“…Similarly, our study showed that hs-CRP levels were elevated both in patients with functional and non-functional adenoma, and hs-CRP was positively related to the MHR value in patients with adrenal tumor. A significant correlation of high MHR value with high CRP levels in patients with infective endocarditis (37), acute coronary syndrome (10), coronary artery disease (9,38), and hypertensive patients (39). MHR with its positively relation to CRP, as a biomarker of inflammation, therefore using MHR with CRP would be a predictor of clinical cardiometabolic outcomes (1).…”
