Background: Previous studies proposed that both inflammation, oxidative stress, and impaired endothelial dysfunction have a significant role in occurrence of slow coronary flow (SCF). monocyte-to-high density lipoprotein cholesterol ratio (MHR) is a recently emerged indicator of inflammation and oxidative stress, which have been studied only in patients with chronic kidney disease. Hypothesis: We aimed to assess the relationship between MHR and SCF. Methods: Patients who had angiographically normal coronary arteries were enrolled in this retrospective study (n = 253 as SCF group and n = 176 as control group). Patients who had corrected thrombolysis in myocardial infarction frame counts (cTFCs) above the normal cutoffs were defined as with SCF. Results: The MHR and high-sensitivity C-reactive protein (hsCRP) were significantly higher in the SCF group. In correlation analysis, MHR has a significantly positive correlation with cTFC and serum hsCRP levels (P < .001). In multivariate logistic regression analysis, MHR was found as independently associated with the presence of SCF (odds ratio: 1.24, P < .001). Conclusion: Higher MHR which indicates an enhanced inflammation and oxidative stress was significantly and independently associated with the presence of SCF. Besides, MHR was positively correlated with serum hsCRP level as a conventional marker for systemic inflammation.
