Abstract:
Objective:To observe changes of serum uric acid (UA)level and red cell distribution Width (RDW)in se-nile men With chronic heart failure (CHF),and explore their correlation With cardiac function.Methods:A total of 60 senile male CHF patients Were enrolled,including 28 cases of NYHA cardiac function class Ⅱ and 32 cases of NYHA class Ⅲ-Ⅳ.Another 30 cases With normal cardiac functionWere regarded as normal control group.Levels of UA,RDW and high sensitive C reactive protein (hsCRP)Were measured,and patients received color-coded Doppler echocardiography,change of every index Was compared among patients With different cardiac function class.Results:Compared With normal control group,there Were significant rise in serum levels of UA [(318.2± 54.3)μmol/L vs.(434.7±72.7)μmol/L],RDW [(13.84±0.60)% vs.(15.79±0.74)%]and hsCRP [(2.23 ±0.56)mg/L vs.(6.35±2.34)mg/L]in CHF group,and they significantly rose alongWith cardiac function class aggravated,P <0.01 all;there Were significant decrease in transmitral early diastolic peak floW velocity/transmitral late diastolic peak floWvelocity [E/A,(1.02±0.36)vs.(0.75±0.13)]and left ventricular ejection fraction [LVEF,(59±9)% vs.(49±9)%]in CHF group,and they significantly reduced along With cardiac function aggravated, P <0.01 both;in CHF group;UA,RDW and hsCRPWere negatively correlatedWith E/A and LVEF (r =-0.391~-0.731,P <0.05 all);RDW Was positively correlated With hsCRP (r =0.491,P <0.05).Conclusion: Serum uric acid and red cell distributionWidth are correlated to cardiac function in senile male patients,Which can help to judge the severity of heart failure and guide clinical treatment.
