Blood test may reveal hidden danger after heart attack
NCT ID NCT07026708
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study looks at 1,600 people who recently had a heart attack to see if a common blood test (the neutrophil-to-lymphocyte ratio, or NLR) can help predict who is at higher risk of dying or having another heart problem within 6 months. Researchers will measure NLR from blood samples taken at the hospital and follow up by phone. The goal is to find a cheap, easy way to identify patients who need extra care after a heart attack.
