“…Anemia was present in 28% of the ACS patients studied confirming that anemia is frequently found in patients with ACS, although the prevalence varies widely between 10% to 30% depending on the definition used in various studies. [1][2][3][4][5][6][7][8][9] In accordance with the findings linking anemia and poor clinical outcomes in ACS patients, this study demonstrated that ACS patients with anemia were more likely to be older, female, and associated with comorbidities like diabetes, hypertension, chronic renal failure, and stroke; [1][2][3][4][5][6][7][8][9]18,19 thus identifying a high-risk population with poor hematopoetic reserve. They were more likely to present with lower systolic blood pressure, higher heart rates, and higher Killip class and GRACE risk scores.…”

“…One of the main findings of the present study is that admission anemia during ACS was not only related to statistically significant higher in-hospital mortality, 2,8,18 but also predicted 1-month 1,3,11,18 and 1-year mortality. [5][6][7]9,[23][24][25][26] The multiple regression models showed that this relationship persisted even after adjustment with GRACE risk score.…”

“…Both anemia and DM are recognized as strong independent risk factors for mortality and recurrent ischemia after acute MI. 45,46 Anemia is 2-3 times more common in indivisuals with DM compared to those without DM 6 . Recent studies have shown that anemia is associated with increased short term mortality in patients with IHD.…”

“…Anemia, an independent predictor of mortality after ACS, is seen in approximately 15% of patients presenting with ACS, and the incidence goes up to 43% in elderly patients (4,5) . The ACUITY trial demonstrated that the presence of anemia on admission in patients with NSTE-ACS is associated with both short and long-term adverse events and increased 1-year mortality (6) .…”
