Association of ratios of monocyte/high-density lipoprotein cholesterol and neutrophil/high-density lipoprotein cholesterol with atherosclerotic plaque type on coronary computed tomography.

The monocyte/high-density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL-C) ratio (MHR) and neutrophil/HDL-C ratio (NHR) are markers for inflammation and dyslipidaemia, which are important factors in atherosclerosis. Studies have linked MHR and NHR to the prediction, severity and prognosis of coronary artery disease. However, no study has explored their connection to plaque stability, specifically its calcific or soft/mixed content.
