Background:The impact of body mass index (BMI) on the clinical outcomes after percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) in patients ≥75 years old remained unclear.Methods:A total of 1098 elderly patients undergoing PCI with stent implantation were recruited.Patients were divided into four groups by the value of BMI:Underweight (〈20.0 kg/m^2),normal weight (20.0-24.9 kg/m^2),overweight (25.0-29.9 kg/m^2) and obese (≥30.0 kg/m^2).Major clinical outcomes after PCI were compared between the groups.The primary endpoint was defined as in-hospital major adverse cardiovascular events (MACEs),which included death,myocardial infarction (MI) and target vessel revascularization.The secondary endpoint was defined as 1 year death.Logistic regression analysis was performed to adjust for the potential confounders.Results:Totally,1077 elderly patients with available BMIs were included in the analysis.Patients of underweight,normal weight,overweight and obese accounted for 5.6%,45.4%,41.5% and 7.5% of the population,respectively.Underweight patients were more likely to attract ST-segment elevation MI,and get accompanied with anemia or renal dysfunction.Meanwhile,they were less likely to achieve thrombolysis in MI 3 grade flow after PCI,and receive beta-blocker,angiotensin converting enzyme inhibitor or angiotensin receptor blocker after discharge.In underweight,normal weight,overweight and obese patients,in-hospital MACE were 1.7%,2.7%,3.8%,and 3.7% respectively (P =0.68),and 1 year mortality rates were 5.0%,3.9%,5.1% and 3.7% (P =0.80),without significant difference between the groups.Multivariate regression analysis showed that the value of BMI was not associated with in-hospital MACE in patients at 75 years old.Conclusions:The BMI "obese paradox" was not found in patients ≥75 years old.It was suggested that BMI may not be a sensitive predictor of adverse cardiovascular events in elderly patients.
