Abstract:
Objective To investigate the long-term prognostic factors and the significance of serum cardiac troponin T (cTnT) and C-reactive protein (CRP) in maintenance hemodialysis (MHD) patients.Methods Clinical data of 76 MHD patients in our hospital from January 2002 to January 2003 were retrospectively analyzed.Time and cause of death in the next 10 years were recorded.Survival rate was calculated by Kaplan-Meier and impact factors of long-term prognosis were explored.Significance of cTnT and CRP was elucidated by COX regression analysis.Results CRP was positive in 28 cases (36.8％) and cTnT was positive in 22 cases (28.9％) among 76 patients.The median survival time was 37.9 months,2-year survival rate was 65.9％ and 10-year survival rate was 24.2％.Univariate analysis found positive CRP,positive cTnT,old age,diabetes,cardiocerebrovascular disease,anemia,low serum albumin,Kt/V decline were associated with long-term prognosis.Multivariate analysis showed that increased age (P =0.010),cardiocerebrovascular disease (P =0.048),positive cTnT (P =0.036),positive CRP (P =0.009) were independent risk factors of the 10-year survival of MHD patients.Ten-year mortality of cardiocerebrovascular diseases in positive cTnT group was not significantly different as compared with negative cTnT group (50.0％ vs 35.4％,P =0.248).But the positive cTnT group had higher 2-year mortality than negative cTnT group (40.9％ vs 14.6％,P =0.015).Mortality of cardiocerebrovascular disease was higher in positive CRP group as compared to negative CRP group at both 2-year and 10-year time (48.1％ vs 7.0％,P =0.000; 66.7％ vs 23.3％,P =0.000).Compared with both negative cTnT and CRP group,both positive cTnT and CRP group had much higher all-cause mortality (92.9％ vs 55.6％,P =0.030),higher mortality of cardiocerebrovascular disease at 10-year (64.3％ vs 25.0％,P =0.009),and higher mortality of cardiocerebrovascular disease at 2-year (57.1％ vs 5.6％,P =0.000).Conclusions Aging,cardiocerebrovascular disease,positive cTnT and positive CRP are independent risk factors of long-term prognosis for MHD patients.Positive cTnT can predict cardiocerebrovascular mortality of MHD patients in 2 years,while positive CRP can predict short-and long-term cardiocerebrovascular mortality.Positive cTnT combined with positive CRP may be more valuable in predicting the poor prognosis of MHD patients.
