简介:目的评估中性粒细胞淋巴细胞比值(NLR)预测急性心肌梗死的临床价值.方法选取在我院住院的急性心肌梗死(AMI)和冠心病患者,均行冠状动脉造影,分为AMI组和冠心病组,比较两组患者基线资料,分析中性粒细胞淋巴细胞比值与急性心肌梗死的关系.结果①与冠心病组相比,AMI组患者的中性粒细胞(Neu)水平(t=-10.501,P<0.01)及NLR水平(t=-10.695,P<0.01)明显升高,淋巴细胞(Lvm)水平(t=2.603,P=0.01)明显降低,差异具有统计学意义.②急性心肌梗死发生的多元Logistic回归分析示,NLR是急性心肌梗死发生的危险因素(OR=2.116,95%CI1.313~3.411,P=0.002).③NLR取3.528作为预测患者发生急性心肌梗死的临界值时,曲线下面积0.869(95%CI0.824~0.915),灵敏度为0.831,特异度为0.771,P<0.01.结论NLR与急性心肌梗死有关,可以预测急性心肌梗死的发生.
简介:目的:探讨血清转化生长因子(TGF-β1)和胰岛素样生长因子(IGF-1)水平对冠心病患者心功能的影响.方法:选择因胸痛住院患者88例分为急性心肌梗死(AMI)组、心绞痛(AP)组和对照组,填调查表,入院择日行选择性冠状动脉造影术,术前采股动脉血,以ABC双抗体夹心ELISA法检测血清TGF-β1和IGF-1浓度,入院2周内完成超声心动图,所有资料用SPSS10.0软件处理.结果:AMI患者与AP患者相比,血清TGF-β1浓度较低(P<0.05),IGF-1血清浓度较低(P<0.001);冠心病患者血清IGF-1水平与EF(P<0.05)和FS(P<0.02)正相关.结论:TGF-β1和IGF-1对冠心病患者具有某种保护作用,其中IGF-1能保护冠心病患者的心功能.
