Abstract:
Objective To explore the difference of plasma pentraxin 3 (PTX3) levels in acute coronary syndrome (ACS) patients,and to evaluate the correlation between plasma PTX3 levels and ACS as well as hypersensitive C-reaction protein (hs-CRP), through detecting the plasma levels of PTX3 and serum levels of hs-CRP in ACS patients, stable angina pectoris (SAP) patients and normal controls. Methods According to coronary angiography results,78 subjects were divided into control group (n = 20), stable angina pectoris (SAP) group (n = 22), and acute coronary syndrome (ACS) group (n = 36). The plasma levels of PTX3 and serum hs-CRP as well as routine blood biochemical markers were detected on the second day after admission. SPSS10.0 was used for one-factor analysis of variance and Logistic regression analysis. Results The logarithm level of plasma PTX3 in ACS group was significantly higher than that of the other two groups (P <0.05). The difference between the SAP group and the control group was not statistically significant (P > 0.05). Logistic regression analysis revealed that the estimated value of the plasma PTX3 logarithm level was 2.32 (P < 0.05), that of the serum hs-CRP was 0.447 (P > 0.05). Conclusion The plasma PTX3 level in ACS group is significantly higher than that of the SAP group and the control group. The correlation between plasma FTX3 levels and the ACS is stronger than that of the serum hs-CRP levels.
