Abstract:
Objective To investigate the value of high-sensitivity C-reactive protein (hs-CRP) combined with high-sensitivity cardiac troponin T (hs-cTnT) for prognosis of patients with acute coronary syndrome (ACS).Methods One hundred and eighteen patients with ACS were selected from July 2011 to December 2012.According to the clinical feature,they were divided into unstable angina pectoris (UAP) group (38 cases),non ST segment elevation myocardial infarction (NSTEMI) group (38 cases) and ST segment elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) group(42 cases).They were followed up for 3 months,and the incidence of cardiovascular events and cardiac death was observed.Twenty healthy people were selected as control group.Results The serum level of hs-CRP on admission in UAP group,STEMI group,NSTEMI group was higher than that in control group,and NSTEMI group was highest.And there was significant difference between NSTEMI group and STEMI group,and also between NSTEMI group and control group (P ＜ 0.05).The serum level of hs-cTnI was increased in STEMI group and NSTEMI group.The increased degree in STEMI group was higher than that in NSTEMI group,and there was significant difference (P ＜0.05).The incidence of cardiovascular events and cardiac death within 3 months after discharge in patients with the serum level of hs-CRP ≥ 3 mg/L on admission in UAP group and NSTEMI group,STEMI group was 6/11,40.0％ (12/30),46.4％ (13/28),which was higher than that in patients with the serum level of hs-CRP ＜ 3 mg/L[11.1％(3/27),3/8,5/14],and there was significant difference(P＜ 0.05).The incidence of cardiovascular events and cardiac death within 3 months after discharge in patients with the serum level of hs-cTnT≥ 1.0 μ g/L on admission in NSTEMI group and STEMI group was 16.7％(5/30) and 18.4％(7/38),which was higher than that in patients with the serum level of hs-cTnT ＜ 1.0 μ g/L (1/8,1/4),and there was significant difference (P ＜ 0.05).Conclusion Significantly increased hs-CRP is an important predictor of poor prognosis of ACS patients.hs-CRP combined with hs-cTnT is helpful in early identification of high-risk patients.Giving intensive treatment to these patients in time and monitoring closely after discharge can reduce the happening of cardiovascular events.
