Abstract:
Objective To evaluate the short-term prediction of high-sensitivity cardiac troponin T (hs-cTnT) and other cardiovascular risk biomarkers in patients undergoing maintenance hemodialysis (MHD).Methods We conducted a cohort survey in 296 consecutive MHD patients whose clinical data were retrospectively analyzed.Before MHD,hs-cTnT and other relative cardiovascular biomarkers were detected.The end point (all-cause death) and time of occurring were recorded in the next 13 months.The differences between survival and all-cause death were analyzed by t-test,Mann-Whitney test and x2 test.The best two percentile cutoff point was calculated by X-tile and the survival rate was calculated by Kaplan-Meier Logistic regression analysis was applied to analyze the odd ratio between high risk and non-high risk hs-cTnT group.Non-high risk group was divided into intermediate risk and low risk group based on the 99th percentile of hs-cTnT in healthy population,to further evaluate its short-term prediction value for MHD patients.The short-term significance of hs-cTnT was proved to be independently associated with all-cause death by Logistic regression analysis.Results The mean value of serum hs-cTnT in survival group was 0.05 (0.03~0.07) ng/mL,while in the death group it was 0.07 (0.04~0.14) ng/mL,which had statistical significance (P =0.027).The best two percentile cutoff of hs-cTnT in MHD patients was 0.1 ng/mL.The survival rate in high risk group (hs-cTnT>0.1 ng/mL) is lower than it in non-high risk group (hs-cTnT≤0.1 ng/mL) (76.67% vs.96.62%,P <0.05).The odd ratios for high risk group and non-high risk group was 7.288 (P< 0.001).Moreover,further grouping the non-high risk group by hs-cTnT =0.014 ng/mL,intermediate risk group (hs-cTnT>0.014 ng/mL) group has lower survival rate than low risk group (hs-cTnT≤0.014ng/mL),while there wasn't any death case occurred in the low risk group.Conclusions Hs-cTnT is an independent risk factor to all-cause death.Thus hs-cTnT can be a strong indicator of short-term prediction and prognostic evaluation.
