Relationship between Red Blood Cell Indices (MCV, MCH, and MCHC) and Major Adverse Cardiovascular Events in Anemic and Nonanemic Patients with Acute Coronary Syndrome

Figure 2

Kaplan–Meier survival analysis of MACEs based on MCV, MCH, and MCHC levels in ACS patients with or without anemia. (a) Adverse event-free survival rate for MACEs in 75 anemic patients divided by tertiles of MCV, MCH, and MCHC levels during the follow-up period. (b) Adverse event-free survival rate for MACEs in 318 nonanemic patients divided by tertiles of MCV, MCH, and MCHC levels during the follow-up period. ACS: acute coronary syndrome; MACEs: major adverse cardiovascular events; MCH: mean corpuscular hemoglobin; MCHC: mean corpuscular hemoglobin concentration; MCV: mean corpuscular volume.
