Abstract

BACKGROUND/AIMS: Only a few studies have addressed the role of NT-proBNP in identifying Left Ventricular Systolic Dysfunction (LVSD) in South Asian populations. Therefore, the current study was aimed at assessing the use of serum NT-proBNP in predicting LVSD in a hospitalized population in Sri Lanka.

METHODS

A random sample of 278 individuals referred for echocardiography at a major Teaching Hospital consented for venous blood samples to be collected for serum NT-proBNP assay by sandwich ELISA. Based on the ejection fraction (LVEF) and fractional shortening (FS), participants were differentiated as LVSD (LVEF<50%, FS≤ 29%) and non-LVSD individuals (LVEF>60%). According to inclusion/exclusion criteria, the final study sample consisted of 100 LVSD patients and 41 non-LVSD individuals.

RESULTS

The mean ages of the LVSD and non-LVSD groups were 69.1 (±6.2 years) and 71.4 (±2.4 years) (p=0.066) respectively. The median NT-proBNP value (with IQR) among LVSD patients (528.2 pg/mL,355.2-924.2) was comparatively higher than that of non-LVSD individuals (207.3 pg/mL,177.5-343.0). Strong correlations of NT-proBNP level with LVEF (Spearman -0.84, p<0.001) and FS ( -0.81, <0.001) suggested that serum NT-proBNP concentration increases in parallel to deteriorating left ventricular functions. The AUROC of serum NT-proBNP for differentiating LVSD was 0.859 (95% CI:0.79 - 0.92) and the optimal cut-off level for predicting LVSD was 265pg/mL, with 90% sensitivity and 70% specificity.

CONCLUSION

Current Sri Lankan study revealed a considerable correlation of serum NT-proBNP level with LVSD and utilizing such an assay for screening will facilitate adequate evidence to rule-out LVSD among high-risk residents.

摘要

背景/目的：仅有少数研究探讨了N末端B型利钠肽原（NT-proBNP）在南亚人群左心室收缩功能障碍（LVSD）识别中的作用。因此，本研究旨在评估血清NT-proBNP在预测斯里兰卡住院人群LVSD中的应用。

方法

在一家大型教学医院，随机抽取278名接受超声心动图检查的个体，同意采集静脉血样本，通过夹心酶联免疫吸附测定法（ELISA）检测血清NT-proBNP。根据射血分数（LVEF）和缩短分数（FS），将参与者分为LVSD组（LVEF<50%，FS≤29%）和非LVSD组（LVEF>60%）。根据纳入/排除标准，最终研究样本包括100例LVSD患者和41例非LVSD个体。

结果

LVSD组和非LVSD组的平均年龄分别为69.1（±6.2岁）和71.4（±2.4岁）（p=0.066）。LVSD患者的NT-proBNP中位数（四分位间距）值（528.2 pg/mL，355.2 - 924.2）高于非LVSD个体（207.3 pg/mL，177.5 - 343.0）。NT-proBNP水平与LVEF（Spearman相关性 -0.84，p<0.001）和FS（ -0.81，p<0.001）的强相关性表明，血清NT-proBNP浓度随左心室功能恶化而平行升高。血清NT-proBNP区分LVSD的受试者工作特征曲线下面积（AUROC）为0.859（95%CI：0.79 - 0.92），预测LVSD的最佳截断水平为265 pg/mL，敏感性为90%，特异性为70%。
