The correlation coefficients between MHR and the conventional risk factors of MACE were assessed by Spearman correlation analysis
P < 0.05 (in bold)
MHR, monocyte to high-density lipoprotein cholesterol ratio; MACE, major adverse cardiovascular events; CI, confidence interval; HR, heart rate; BMI, body mass index; RI, renal insufficiency; NYHA, New York Heart Association; HbA1c, haemoglobin A1c; LDL-C, low-density lipoprotein cholesterol; hs-CRP, high-sensitivity C-reactive protein
