Abstract:
Objective To investigate the association between serum N-terminal pro brain natriuretic peptide(NT-ProBNP) and creatine kinase myocardial(CK-MB),cardiac troponin I(cTnI) in children who were diagnosed as viral myocarditis(VMC),and to explore the clinical significance.Methods Fifty children with VMC were selected as VMC group who were further divided into cTnI(+)group and cTnI(-)group.Fifteen healthy children were selected as healthy control group.The levels of myocardial enzyme of the 2 groups were tested by automatic biochemical analyzer and level of NT-proBNP was detected by specific NT-proBNP enzymelink immunosorbent assay(ELISA) kit.SPSS 13.0 software was used to analyze the data.Results 1.There were 23 cases with positive cTnI and 27 cases with negative cTnI.The levels of NT-proBNP in VMC group including cTnI positive and cTnI negative were significantly higher than those in healthy control group (P0.05).2.In the group with positive cTnI,the level of NT-proBNP was correlated with cTnI.The coefficient of determination was 0.17.3.In the group with negative cTnI,the level of NT-proBNP was correlated with CK-MB.The coefficient of determination was 0.34.NT-proBNP presented a increasing trend during interval of 25-100 U?L-1 and 175-255 U?L-1 of CK-MB.Conclusions The levels in the serum NT-proBNP in VMC children were higher than those in healthy children.Serum detection NT-proBNP may be applied as a new approach in diagnosis of VMC in children.
