Abstract:
Objective To investigate the expression changes in serum brain natriuretic peptide(BNP)and N-terminal pro-B-type natriuretic peptide(NT-proBNP)in ventricular remodeling in elderly hypertensive patients with heart failure with mildly reduced ejection fraction(HFmrEF).Methods A total of 288 elderly hypertensive patients admitted to our department from January 2022 to January 2024 were enrolled,and then divided into heart failure with preserved ejection fraction(HFpEF)group(88 cases),HFmrEF group(54 cases),heart failure with reduced ejection fraction(HFrEF)group(62 cases),and control group(simple hypertension,84 cases).The BNP and NT-proBNP levels and ventricular remodeling indicators were compared among all groups.Ventricular remodeling indicators included left ventricular posterior wall thickness(LVPWT),interventricular septum thickness(IVST),left ventricular end-diastolic diameter(LVEDD),maximum mitral flow velocity in early left ventricular diastolic period(E)/maximum mitral flow velocity in late left ventricular diastolic period(A),left ventricle mass index(LVMI)and left ventricular ejection fraction(LVEF).Results Significant differences were observed in the LVPWT,IVST,LVEF,LVEDD,E/A,LVMI,BNP and NT-proBNP levels among above four groups(P<0.01).The LVPWT,IVST,LVEDD,LVMI,BNP and NT-proBNP levels were obvi-ously higher,and LVEF and E/A were notably lower in the HFpEF,HFmrEF and HFrEF groups than the control group(P<0.05).Multivariate logistic regression analysis showed that BNP and NT-proBNP were risk factors for ventricular remodeling in patients with hypertension combined with HFmrEF(P<0.01).Spearman correlation analysis indicated that BNP and NT-proBNP levels were positively correlated with LVPWT,IVST,LVEDD and LVMI(r=0.387,P=0.001,r=0.523,P=0.001,r=0.417,P=0.001,r=0.364,P=0.001;r=0.421,P=0.001,r=0.603,P=0.001,r=0.316,P=0.000,r=0.286,P=0.001),but negatively with LVEF and E/A(r=-0.437,P=0.001,r=-0.624,P=0.001;r=-0.687,P=0.001,r=-0.592,P=0.001).ROC curve analysis revealed that the AUC value of BNP and NT-proBNP levels in predicting ventricu-lar remodeling in patients with hypertension combined with HFmrEF was 0.906 and 0.881(P<0.01),their best cut-off value was 1205.07 and 2016.13 ng/L,the sensitivity was 96.8%and 90.3%,and the specificity was 92.3%and 87.0%,respectively.Conclusion Abnormal levels of BNP and NT-proBNP are associated with ventricular remodeling in elderly patients with hyper-tension combined with HFmrEF,and they can be used as biomarkers for the diagnosis of ventric-ular remodeling in the patients.
