Abstract:
Objective:To investigate the relationship between Tei index and right heart function in patients with pneumoconiosis complicated with pulmonary heart disease (PHD).Methods:108 cases of pneumoconiosis patients with PHD in our hospital from January 2018 to January 2020 were randomly selected and divided into three groups according to the X-ray diagnostic criteria of pneumoconiosis, including 50 cases in stage Ⅰ group, 25 cases in stage Ⅱ group and 33 cases in stage Ⅲ group. All patients were examined by ultrasonic cardiography (UCG); the right ventricular Tei index and brain natriuretic peptide (BNP) levels, right ventricular outflow tract (ROVT) diameter, main pulmonary artery (MPA) diameter, right ventricular anterior wall thickness (RVAW), right ventricular diameter (RV), right atrial diameter (RA), pulmonary artery pressure (PASP), Tei index were compared in groups; Pearson correlation analysis was used to analyze the correlation between UCG index and BNP level; multiple linear regression analysis was used to analyze the influencing factors of BNP.Results:The levels of RV, Tei index and BNP in Ⅰ stage group were significantly lower than those in Ⅱ stage group, and the levels of RV, Tei index and BNP in Ⅱ stage group were significantly lower than those in Ⅲ stage group ( P<0.05). There was no difference in ROVT, MPA, RVAW, RA, PASP in the three groups ( P>0.05). Pearson correlation analysis showed that ROVT, RV, Tei index in UCG indicators and BNP level were positively correlated ( P<0.05); multiple linear regression analysis showed that RVAW and Tei indexes were the main influencing factors of BNP levels ( P<0.05). Conclusions:The right heart Tei index of patients with pneumoconiosis and PHD has a good correlation with BNP level, and is the main influencing factor of BNP level, which can make up for BNP deficiency and effectively evaluate the right heart function of patients.
