Abstract:
Objective To investigate the diagnostic value of heart-type fatty acid binding protein (H-FABP) versus cardiac trofonin I (cTnI) and creatinekinase-MB (CK-MB) in early diagnosis of acute myocardial infarction (AMI) in elderly patients.Methods 67 patients with acute chest pain were selceted sequentially and divided into AMI group (n＝30) and non-AMI group (n=37).Plasma H-FABP level was rapidly detected by using colloidal gold reagent plate and solid phase immunochromatographic assay for qualitative determination within and after 6 hours of AMI onset.Plasma levels of cTnI and CK-MB were determined within and after 6 hours of onset.The diagnositic value of H-FABP,cTnI and CK-MB in AMI was compared within and after 6 hours of onset.Results The sensitivity of H-FABP was better than that of cTnI and CK-MB within 6 hours of onset (93.3％ vs.46.6％,23.3％,both P＜0.05).The negative predictive value of H-FABP was better than that of cTnI and CK-MB within 6 hours of onset (94.7％ vs.69.8％,61.1％,both P＜ 0.05) While,positive predictive value and specificity were basically the same between H-FABP,versus cTnI and CK-MB.H-FABP and cTnI levels had significant differences between AMI and non AMI group after 6 hours of onset (all P＜0.05).Plasma levels of cTnl and CK-MB were higher after 6 hours than within6 hours [cTnI (4.10±1.79) mg/L vs.(1.45±1.31) mg/L,CK MB(180.52± 158.70) U/L vs.(20.02± 7.97) U/L,both P＜0.05].Conclusions As compared with cTnI and CK-MB,within 6 hours after AMI onset,H-FABP as a new myocardial necrosis marker has higher sensitivity,specificity,positive and negative predictive values in the diagnosis of AMI.While,after 6 hours of AMI onset,H-FABP has the same diagnostic value as cTnI and CK-MB.
