Abstract:
Objective To investigate the correction between the levels of vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF), serum amyloid A (SAA), hypersensitive C-reactive protein (hs-CRP) and acute cerebral infarction (ACI), and to provide the basis for the diagnosis and treatment of ACI.Methods A total of 76patients with ACI in the hospital from August to October 2017were selected as ACI group.In addition, 32healthy subjects underwent physical examination in the same period in this hospital were selected as negative control group (NC group).The levels of SAA and hs-CRP were detected by nephelometry, while the level of VEGF was measured by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA).The differences of detection indexes between two groups were compared, and the diagnostic value of each index and the combined test were evaluated with the Youden index.Results The levels of SAA, hs-CRP and VEGF in ACI group, were significantly higher than those of NC group (P＜0.01).The levels of VEGF was positively correlated with SAA and hs-CRP (r=0.434and0.631, P=0.000and 0.000).The optimal diagnostic critical points of VEGF, SAA and hs-CRP in the diagnosis of ACI were 161.93pg/mL, 3.81mg/L and 4.63mg/L, and the sensitivities were 93.55％, 65.91％and64.44％, the specificities were 60.00％, 93.75％and 90.32％, respectively.Combined detection with hs-CRP and VEGF was superior to single index detection and other joint detection.The sensitivity, specificity and Youden index of combined detection with hs-CRP and VEGF were 96.67％, 95.65％and 0.92respectively.Conclusion The levels of VEGF, SAA and hs-CRP increase in patients with ACI, and they play important roles in the diagnosis of ACI.VEGF are positively related to SAA and hs-CRP, and there may be an synergistic effect exist.VEGF may be involved in the pathological process of cerebral infarction.The combined detection of hs-CRP and VEGF is of high clinical value in the diagnosis of cerebral infarction.
