Abstract:
Objective To investigate the changes and clinical significance of serum prealbumin (PAB) and bilirubin in patients with coronary heart disease (CHD). Methods The levels of serum PAB and bilirubin were measured respectively in 234 patients with CHD (CHD group) and 77 patients with paroxysmal supraventricular tachycardia (PSVT, control group), and the former group was divided into stable angina pectoris (SAP) group with 80 patients,unstable angina pectoris (UAP) group with 84 patients and acute myocardial infarction (AMI) group with 70 patients,according to the chnical manifestation. Results The levels of total bilirubin (TBIL),direct bilirubin (DBIL) and indirect bilirubin (IBIL) in CHD group [ (11.8 ± 6.1 ), (4.8 ± 1.0) and (7.7 ± 2.7) μ mol/L] were significantly lower than those in control group [(14.6 ±5.6), (6.2 ±1.3) and (9.5 ±6.1)μmol/L] (P ＜0.05). The levels of TBIL, DBIL and IBIL decreased gradually from SAP group, UAP group to AMI group, but there was no significant difference among three groups (P ＞ 0.05 ). The levels of serum PAB in CHD group were also significantly lower than those in control group [(205.55 ±5.68) mg/L vs.(229.78 ± 9.62) mg/L] (P ＜ 0.05),and decreased gradually from SAP group,UAP group to AMI group [(215.73 ± 7.98), (214.12 ± 3.79) and (195.75 ± 7.07) mg/L],but there was no significant difference among three groups (P ＞ 0.05 ). Conclusion The levels of serum PAB and bilirubin are related to the severity of CHD, and can be used as important biochemical indicators in monitoring the attack and severity in patients with CHD.
