有运动高血压反应的患者平板运动试验假阳性相关因素分析

Analysis of factors related to false positives of treadmill exercise test in patients with hypertensive response to exercise

目的:探讨有运动高血压反应的患者平板运动试验假阳性的相关因素。方法:选取2019年11月至2022年10月在江苏省省级机关医院心脏康复门诊平板运动试验(treadmill exercise test,TET)检查阳性且有运动高血压反应的患者154例,根据有无冠心病分为假阳性组72例、真阳性组82例,比较两组人口统计学及TET相关参数。结果:TET假阳性组与真阳性组性别比较差异有统计学意义(P<0.05),与男性相比,女性更易得到假阳性结果。假阳性组和真阳性组出现ST段压低时的收缩压(systolic blood pressure,SBP)分别为203.87±8.70 mmHg和187.25±16.66 mmHg,两组之间差异有统计学意义(P<0.05)。应用Logistic回归分析,仅ST段压低时的SBP和性别与TET假阳性之间显著相关(P<0.05)。利用受试者工作特征曲线(receiver operating characteristic,ROC)描绘出的ST段压低时的SBP临界值为188mmHg,其敏感性为1、特异性为0.625,曲线下面积为0.813。结论:在有运动高血压反应的患者中,ST段压低时的SBP可考虑作为预测TET假阳性的指标,当其数值≥188 mm Hg时,特别是在女性患者中,要慎重得出TET阳性的结论。

Objectives To explore factors associated with false positive treadmill exercise testing(TET)in patients with hypertensive responses to exercise.Methods Between November 2019 and October 2022,154 patients with positive TET and hypertensive response to exercise were selected from the department of cardiac rehabilitation of Jiangsu Province Official Hospital,and divided into a false positive group of 72 and a true positive group of 82.Then,demographic and TET-related parameters were compared between the two groups.Results There was a significant difference between the two groups in gender(P<0.05).Compared with the male,the female were more likely to get false-positive results.Moreover,the systolic blood pressure(SBP)at the time of ST segment depression in the false positive group was 203.87±8.70 mmHg,significantly different from the true positive group of 187.25±16.66 mmHg(P<0.05).According to logistic regression analysis,only the SBP at the time of ST segment depression and gender were significantly correlated with TET false positives(P<0.05).The cut-off value of SBP at the time of ST segment depression was 188 mmHg,with a sensitivity of 1,a specificity of 0.625,and an area under the curve of 0.813.Conclusions In patients with hypertensive response to exercise,SBP at the time of ST segment depression can be considered as a predictor of false positive TET.When its value is no less than 188 mmHg,TET-positive conclusions should be drawn with caution,especially for female patients.
