Abstract:
Objective To evaluate the clinical significance of myocardial enzymes and high sensitive C-reactive protein( hs-CRP) in children with herpangina. Methods A total of 80 children with herpangina( obser-vation group,n=80),at the same time,50 healthy children as control group(n=50)were assigned for the detec-tion of myocardial enzymes(AST,LDH,CK,CK-MB)and hs-CRP. Results The elevated CRP levels were found in 45(56. 25%)patients of observation group and 2(4%)patients of the control group,showing statistical significance(χ2 =31. 55,P<0. 01). Abnormal myocardial enzyme levels were observed in 59(73. 75%)cases, which included AST 51. 6%, CK 40. 1%, CK-MB 21. 4%, LDH 72. 2%. Abnormal myocardial enzyme levels were observed in 6(12%) cases of control group,which included AST l6%,CK 10%,CK-MB 4% and LDH 12%. The significant differences were observed between the two groups ( P<0. 01 ) . Conclusion Herpangina children may have different degrees of myocardial damage. Myocardial enzymes and hs-CRP are useful indicators for myocardial injury which may effectively provide reference for clinical diagnosis and treatment.
