Abstract:
Objective : To study plasma N terminal pro brain natriuretic peptide (NT-proBNP ) level difference be-tween Han nationality and Uighur nationality patients with acute coronary syndrome (ACS) in Xinjiang .Methods : A total of 482 Uygur and Han nationalities ACS patients (uighur : 212 cases , han : 270 cases) hospitalized from May 2012 to Aug 2013 were selected . According to ACS types , they were divided into unstable angina pectoris (UAP) group (n = 234) ,acute ST segment elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) group (n = 166) and acute non- ST segment elevation myocardial infarction (NSTEMI) group (n = 82) .All patients received coronary angiography (CAG) and their NT-proBNP levels were compared .Results : ① CAG results indicated that Uygur nationality ACS patients were mainly multi-vessel coronary disease and the percentage was significantly higher than that of Han na - tionality ACS patients (61.32% vs .40.00% ) ; ② Compared with Han nationality ACS patients ,there were significant rise in NT-proBNP levels [UAP : 168.5 (70.6 ~ 272.5) pg/ml vs .383.2 (210.3 ~ 739.5 ) pg/ml ,STEMI : 618.5 (231.7 ~ 1387) pg/ml vs .1209.5 (908 ~ 3214) pg/ml ,NSTEMI : 446.7 (252.21 ~ 831.92) pg/ml vs .1066 (928 ~ 3448.25) pg/ml] in Uygur nationality ACS patients ; ③ Compared with Han nationality ACS patients ,there were significant rise in NT-proBNP levels [Single vessel : 221.7 (20 ~ 2851) pg/ml vs .557.1 (125 ~ 1956.2) pg/ ml ,double-vessel : 421.2 (75.2 ~ 3401.5) pg/ml vs .610.5 (174.4 ~ 5679.1) pg/ml ,multi-vessel : 648.2 (142.4 ~ 3850) pg/ml vs .812.3 (154.8 ~ 6832.5) pg/ml] in Uygur nationality patients with different number of diseased coronary vessels , P < 0.05 ~ < 0.01 .Conclusion : NT-proBNP level in Uygur nationality ACS patients is significant - ly higher than that of Han nationality patients ,it may be related with hereditas ,living habit ,risk factor control , early diagnosis and treatment of disease ,post-discharge compliance of treatment ,which possesses important value for assessing patient′s condition .
