Abstract:
Objective To investigate the clinical features and risk factors of adult nephrotic syndrome with pulmonary thromboembolism (PTE). Methods Sixty patients diagnosed with nephrotic syndrome and clinically suspected with PTE were enrolled in this retrospective study. Patients were divided into PTE group (n=32) and no-PTE group (n=28) according to the results of computed tomographic pulmonary angiography (CTPA). The single factor analysis and Logistic repres?sion analysis were used to analyse risk factors including age, gender, onset time, clinical symptoms, laboratory examination and pathological types. According to the independent risk factors, the receiver-operating characteristic curve (ROC curve) was used to determine PTE threshold value based on the evaluation index in nephrotic syndrome. Results Single factor analysis showed that there were significant differences in disease duration, hemoglobin, serum albumin, total cholesterol, low-density lipoprotein cholesterol, D-dimer and physical examination in P2 hyperthyroidism between two groups (P <0.05). Logistic regression analysis showed that D-dimer was independent risk factor of PTE. The analysis of ROC curve indi?cated that D-dimer optimal threshold was 1 015.50μg/L. Conclusion D-dimer is an independent risk factor of PTE in pa?tients with nephrotic syndrome. When D-dimer is greater than 1 015.50μg/L, should pay attention to the occurrence of PTE.
