Abstract:
Objective:To explore the relationship between serum albumin (ALB), erythrocyte sedimentation rate (ESR), platelet/lymphocyte ratio (PLR), neutrophil/lymphocyte ratio (NLR) and coronary artery disease in children with Kawasaki disease (KD).Methods:120 KD children diagnosed in the Affiliated Hospital of Jining Medical College from December 2016 to November 2021 were selected as the research objects. They were divided into observation group (KD with coronary artery disease) and control group (KD with coronary artery disease) according to whether they had coronary artery disease, with 60 cases in each group; the serum ALB, ESR, PLR, NLR values of the two groups of children were compared. Receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve was used to analyze the value of the above indicators in diagnosing KD children with coronary artery disease. The serum ALB, ESR, PLR, NLR levels of KD children with different degrees of coronary artery disease were analyzed.Results:The main manifestations of coronary artery disease in 60 children with KD combined with coronary artery disease were left main coronary artery and left anterior descending branch widening [56.67%(34/60)], left main coronary artery and left anterior descending branch widening [20.00%(12/60)], left anterior descending branch widening [16.67%(10/60)], left main coronary artery widening [11.67%(7/60)]. The serum ALB in the observation group was significantly lower than that in the control group ( P<0.05), and ESR was significantly higher than that in the control group ( P<0.05). There was no significant difference in serum PLR and NLR between observation group and control group (all P>0.05). The sensitivity, specificity and area under curve (AUC) value of serum ALB in diagnosing coronary artery disease in KD children were 73.61%, 78.42% and 0.813 respectively; The sensitivity, specificity and AUC of ESR in diagnosing coronary artery disease in KD children were 88.36%, 83.14% and 0.892 respectively; The sensitivity, specificity and AUC value of ESR combined with ALB in diagnosing coronary artery disease in KD children were 90.67%, 97.54% and 0.953 respectively. Among 60 children with KD complicated with coronary artery disease, 39 were diagnosed as coronary artery dilatation and 21 had coronary artery aneurysm. The serum ALB of children in the coronary artery aneurysm group was significantly lower than that in the coronary artery dilatation group ( P<0.05), and ESR was significantly higher than that in the coronary artery dilatation group ( P<0.05). There was no significant difference in PLR and NLR between the coronary artery aneurysm group and the coronary artery dilatation group (all P>0.05). Conclusions:Children with KD and coronary artery disease have lower serum ALB levels and higher ESR level. The above two indicators are of great value for the diagnosis of children with KD and coronary artery disease.
