Abstract:
Objective: To study the relationship between plasma NT-ProBNP level and the severity of coronary artery lesions including left anterior descending (LAD) involvement in acute ST-elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) patients with normal left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) while without diastolic heart failure. Methods: A total of 280 qualiifed patients were collected, plasma NT-proBNP level was examined in all patients within 24-hour of admission. The patients were divided into 3 sets of groups. By Gensini score system: Gensini score<30 group, n=94, Gensini score (30-60) group,n=87 and Gensini score>60 group,n=99; by the number of coronary branch lesions: Single branch group,n=78, Double branch group,n=105 and Triple branch group,n=97; by LAD condition: Criminal LAD group,n=146 and Non-criminal LAD group,n=134. Relevant comparison was conducted in all patients. Results: Plasma NT-proBNP level in Gensini score>60 group was higher than the other 2 Gensini groups, it was higher in Gensini score (30-60) group than Gensini score<30 group; the more branches were involved, the higher NT-proBNP were found (1176.70±492.50) pg/ml vs (608.70±331.20) pg/ml vs (336.90±176.70) pg/ml; NT-proBNP was higher in Criminal LAD group than Non-criminal LAD group (1199.40±725.00) pg/ml vs (607.40±244.20) pg/ml, allP<0.05. Pearson correlation analysis showed that NT-proBNP was positively related to Gensini score (r=0.278,P<0.05). Conclusion: Plasma NT-proBNP level was positively related to severity of coronary lesions, it had certain predictivevalue for triple vessel disease and criminal LAD; routine NT-proBNP examination was helpful for risk stratiifcation and clinical treatment in acute STEMI patients.
