We investigated association of pro-BNP, troponin-I, electrocardiography (ECG) and echocardiography (ECHO) during diagnosis and identification of cirrhotic cardiomyopathy in cirrhotic patients.
Patients were divided into three groups as; compensated cirrhotic patients (group 1, n= 30), decompensated cirrhotic (group 2, n = 30) and control group (group 3, n = 30). ECHO, and ECG were performed, and troponin-I and levels of pro-BNP were analyzed.
Average age of group 1 was 46.36 ± 16 years (range 19-86), 60% were female; group 2 was 57.03 ± 13.54 years (range 22-89), 56% female; and group 3 was 49.13 ± 0.95 years (range 18-80), 56% female. A significant increase in QTc was detected in compensated cirrhotic patients compared to the control group (p <0.05). Pro-BNP levels were significantly higher (p <0.05) in the compensated cirrhotic group compared to the control group. The levels of pro-BNP were also significantly higher in the decompensated cirrhotic group compared compensated cirrhosis group and control group (p <0.001).
The increase of pro-BNP levels with severity of the disease in cirrhotic patients and the prolongation of QTc interval supports an association between these factors with cardiomyopathy.

我们研究了在肝硬化患者诊断和鉴别肝硬化性心肌病过程中,脑钠肽前体(pro-BNP)、肌钙蛋白I、心电图(ECG)和超声心动图(ECHO)之间的关联。
患者被分为三组,分别为:代偿期肝硬化患者(第1组,n = 30)、失代偿期肝硬化患者(第2组,n = 30)和对照组(第3组,n = 30)。进行了超声心动图和心电图检查,并分析了肌钙蛋白I和脑钠肽前体水平。
第1组的平均年龄为46.36±16岁(范围19 - 86岁),女性占60%;第2组为57.03±13.54岁(范围22 - 89岁),女性占56%;第3组为49.13±0.95岁(范围18 - 80岁),女性占56%。与对照组相比,代偿期肝硬化患者的QTc显著延长(p <0.05)。与对照组相比,代偿期肝硬化组的脑钠肽前体水平显著更高(p <0.05)。与代偿期肝硬化组和对照组相比,失代偿期肝硬化组的脑钠肽前体水平也显著更高(p <0.001)。
肝硬化患者中脑钠肽前体水平随疾病严重程度增加以及QTc间期延长,支持这些因素与心肌病之间存在关联。
