Aims: This study aimed to identify the prognostic significance of the C-reactive protein-albumin-lymphocyte (CALLY) index for predicting all-cause mortality in acute coronary syndrome (ACS) patients who have undergone primary percutaneous coronary intervention (pPCI) for revascularization. Materials and methods: 505 patients who presented with ACS and underwent pPCI were retrospectively included in this single center study. CALLY index and other five prognostic scores were calculated. The median follow-up was 40 months. All-cause mortality was defined as the primary endpoint. Results: The median age of the patients was 59 years, 23.4% were female. The CALLY index was categorized into low (<0.7) and high (≥0.7). Age (p = 0.038), concomitant atrial fibrillation (p = 0.023), previous CABG (p = 0.001), ACE-I/ARB/ARNI use (p = 0.015), diuretic use (p = 0.021), and a low-CALLY index (p < 0.001) were identified as independent predictors of all-cause mortality in multivariate cox regression analysis. When compared to other prognostic scores according to AUC in ROC analysis, the CALLY index demonstrated the best ability to predict all-cause mortality. Additionally, patients with a high-CALLY index exhibited significantly better survival outcomes compared to those with a low-CALLY index (log-rank:p < 0.001). Conclusions: CALLY index can be utilized as a novel prognostic score for predicting all-cause mortality in ACS patients who have undergone pPCI.
