To assess the utility of B-type natriuretic peptide (BNP) and C-terminal-pro-endothelin-1 (CT-proET-1) to predict a severely impaired peak oxygen consumption (peak VO(2), < 14 mL kg(-1) min(-1)) in patients referred for cardiopulmonary exercise testing.
Cross-sectional study.
Tertiary care center.
Peak VO(2), BNP and CT-proET-1 were assessed in 141 consecutive patients referred for cardiopulmonary exercise testing.
B-type natriuretic peptide [median (interquartile range) 48 (38-319) vs. 33 (15-86) pg mL(-1); P = 0.002] and CT-proET-1 [87 (76-95) vs. 60 (52-74) pmol L(-1); P < 0.001] were higher in patients with a peak VO(2) < 14 mL kg(-1) min(-1) (n = 30) than in those with a peak VO(2) > or = 14 mL kg(-1) min(-1) (n = 111). CT-pro-ET-1 had a higher area under the receiver-operator-characteristics curve (AUC) to predict a peak VO(2) < 14 mL kg(-1) min(-1) than BNP (0.79 vs. 0.68; P = 0.04). The optimal BNP cut-off of 37.2 pg mL(-1) had a sensitivity of 80% and a specificity of 56%. The optimal CT-proET-1 cut-off of 74.4 pmol L(-1) had a sensitivity of 80% and specificity of 76%. A five-item score composed of body mass index, diabetes, forced expiratory volume within the first second, alveolo-arterial oxygen pressure difference, and BNP had an AUC of 0.88 to predict a peak VO(2) < 14 mL kg(-1) min(-1). Adding CT-proET-1 to the score resulted in an AUC of 0.92.
C-terminal-pro-endothelin-1 is superior to BNP for the prediction of a peak VO(2) < 14 mL kg(-1) min(-1) in patients referred for CPET. A score incorporating body mass index, diabetes status, spirometry, blood gases, BNP and CT-proET-1 improves the prediction of a peak VO(2) < 14 mL kg(-1) min(-1) based on single biomarkers.
评估B型利钠肽(BNP)和C末端前内皮素-1(CT-proET-1)对预测接受心肺运动试验患者严重受损的峰值耗氧量(峰值VO₂,<14 mL·kg⁻¹·min⁻¹)的效用。
横断面研究。
三级医疗中心。
对141例连续接受心肺运动试验的患者评估峰值VO₂、BNP和CT-proET-1。
峰值VO₂<14 mL·kg⁻¹·min⁻¹的患者(n = 30)的B型利钠肽[中位数(四分位间距)48(38 - 319)vs. 33(15 - 86)pg·mL⁻¹;P = 0.002]和CT-proET-1[87(76 - 95)vs. 60(52 - 74)pmol·L⁻¹;P < 0.001]高于峰值VO₂≥14 mL·kg⁻¹·min⁻¹的患者(n = 111)。CT-proET-1在预测峰值VO₂<14 mL·kg⁻¹·min⁻¹方面的受试者工作特征曲线下面积(AUC)高于BNP(0.79对0.68;P = 0.04)。BNP的最佳截断值为37.2 pg·mL⁻¹,灵敏度为80%,特异性为56%。CT-proET-1的最佳截断值为74.4 pmol·L⁻¹,灵敏度为80%,特异性为76%。由体重指数、糖尿病、第一秒用力呼气量、肺泡动脉氧分压差和BNP组成的五项评分预测峰值VO₂<14 mL·kg⁻¹·min⁻¹的AUC为0.88。将CT-proET-1加入该评分后AUC为0.92。
在预测接受心肺运动试验患者的峰值VO₂<14 mL·kg⁻¹·min⁻¹方面,C末端前内皮素-1优于BNP。纳入体重指数、糖尿病状态、肺功能、血气、BNP和CT-proET-1的评分基于单一生物标志物可改善对峰值VO₂<14 mL·kg⁻¹·min⁻¹的预测。
