Abstract

Objective: Nutritional status has been reported to be associated with the prognosis of cardiovascular diseases. The study aimed to investigate the prognostic value of Triglycerides-total Cholesterol-Body weight-Index (TCBI) for short-term mortality in acute type A aortic dissection (ATAD) patients undergoing surgery.

Methods and results: Totally, the data of 290 ATAD patients undergone surgery were, retrospectively, analyzed. After logistic regression analysis, TCBI was identified as an independent predictor of short-term mortality in ATAD surgery. The development of receive operating characteristic (ROC) curve demonstrated that TCBI (AUC = 0.745, P < 0.001) could provide well prognostic value for short-term mortality. Accordingly, the optimal cut-off value was identified as 883.5 and patients were divided into high TCBI (> 883.5) and low TCBI (≤ 883.5) groups. Furthermore, Kaplan-Meier analysis illustrated that short-term mortality increased significantly in the low TCBI group than in the high TCBI group (P < 0.0001). In addition, the incidence of postoperative renal failure was also elevated in the low TCBI group (P = 0.0011).

Conclusion: Malnutrition by preoperative TCBI presented strong prognostic value for patients following ATAD surgery. And TCBI could be applied for risk stratification and therapeutic strategy-making in ATAD.
