For consistency, the last visit date was June 20, 2023. Serum levels of retinol-binding protein-4 (RBP4), interleukin-1β (IL-1β), monocyte chemoattractant protein 1(MCP-1), adrenomedullin (ADM), netrin 1 (NTN 1), and omentin were measured using enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay. Follow-up data were collected during clinical visits or through telephone interviews at 1, 3, 6, 12 months, and annually. The primary endpoint was defined as major adverse cardiovascular events (MACEs), including all-cause mortality, rehospitalization for percutaneous coronary intervention, and severe angina requiring rehospitalization.Results: All biomarkers displayed a good diagnostic ability of MACEs. The Kaplan–Meier curve showed that the cumulative survival rates of high level of RBP4, IL-1β, and MCP-1 and low level of the ADM, NTN1, and omentin had lower cumulative survival rates (Log rank tests: all p 0.05 in the sex, age, and dyslipidemia subgroups.Conclusion: Pro-inflammation adipocytokines RBP4, IL-1β, and MCP-1 increased and anti-inflammation biomarkers ADM, NTN1, and omentin decreased were independently associated with a higher risk of MACEs in patients with ACS.Keywords: acute coronary syndrome, adipocytokines, prognosis
