Abstract:
Objective To observe the changes in myocardial energy metabolism in elderly patients with chronic heart failure(CHF),and analyze its influence on major adverse cardiovascular events(MACE).Methods A retrospective study was conducted on 90 elderly CHF patients(observation group)admitted to our department from January 2021 to January 2024.They were assigned into Class Ⅱ(23 cases),Ⅲ(37 cases)and Ⅳ subgroups(30 cases)according to NYHA functional classification.And another 30 healthy individuals who taking physical examination in our hospital during same period served as control group.Their myocardial energy metabolism indicators,inclu-ding free fatty acids(FFA),circumferential end-systolic wall stress(cESS)and myocardial energy expenditure(MEE)were compared between the two groups.The patients in the observation group were followed up for 6 months after discharge,and then divided into MACE subgroup(40 cases)and non-MACE subgroup(50 cases)according to whether MACE occurred.The differences of FFA,cESS and MEE were compared between the two subgroups,and Spearman correlation analy-sis was used to analyze the correlation of the indicators,multivariate logistic regression analysis was employed to identify the influencing factors,and ROC curve was plotted to analyze the pre-dictive values of the indicators.Results The values of FFA,cESS and MEE were significantly in-creased in the NYHA Class Ⅱ,Ⅲ and Ⅳ subgroups in turn(P＜0.01),and these values were ob-viously higher in the observation group than the control group(P＜0.05).The MACE group had advanced age,larger proportion of NYHA ClassⅣ,and higher NT-proBNP and FFA levels,cESS and MEE values,but lower LVEF than the non-MACE group(P＜0.01).FFA,cESS and MEE were positively correlated with MACE in elderly CHF patients(r=0.512,0.495,0.503,P＜0.05,P＜0.01).Age(OR=2.344,95％CI:1.255-3.464),NYHA cardiac function grade(OR=2.079,95％CI:1.354-2.804),LVEF(OR=2.173,95％CI:1.179-3.167),NT-proBNP(OR=2.257,95％CI:1.149-3.365),FFA(OR=2.713,95％CI:1.103-4.323),cESS(OR=1.868,95％CI:1.111-2.625)and MEE(OR=3.010,95％CI:1.064-4.956)were risk factors for MACE in eld-erly CHF patients with.The AUC value of FFA,cESS and MEE in predicting the occurrence of MACE in elderly CHF patients was 0.732,0.707 and 0.768,respectively,and the AUC value of their combination was 0.893,which was greater than that of the single indicator(Z=6.325,6.581,6.247;P=0.022,0.015,0.026).Conclusion FFA,cESS and MEE are positively correlated with the occurrence of MACE in elderly CHF patients,and are risk factors for MACE occurrence in them.The three indicators have certain predictive performance for MACE,and their combina-tion can further improve the predictive value.
