文摘目的分析体质量指数(Body mass index,BMI)与老年慢性心力衰竭(Chronic heart failure,CHF)患者血浆胱抑素C(cystatinC,Cys-C)、N末端B型利钠肽原(N-terminal pro-B-type natriuretic peptide,NT-proBNP)水平相关性,并分析血浆Cys-C、NT-proBNP评估老年CHF患者预后价值。方法选择2021年7月—2022年10月在本院接受治疗的192例老年慢性心力衰竭(CHF)患者作为研究对象,按照BMI指数分为肥胖组(49例)、超重组(68例)和正常组(75例)三组。对比各亚组患者血浆Cys-C、NT-proBNP水平差异,采用Pearson相关性分析的方式探究老年CHF患者BMI指数与血浆Cys-C、NT-proBNP相关性,对入组患者实施12个月随访,将患者按照预后情况区分为死亡组和存活组,对比两亚组患者血浆Cys-C、NT-proBNP水平差异并评估预后评估价值。结果肥胖组患者血浆Cys-C、NT-proBNP水平高于超重组,超重组患者血浆Cys-C、NT-proBNP水平高于正常组,差异具有统计学意义(P<0.05);入组老年CHF患者的BMI指数与其血浆Cys-C、NT-proBN水平均呈现明显的正相关性(r=0.7104,P<0.0001)(r=0.6603,P<0.0001);随访12个月显示,死亡组患者的血浆Cys-C、NT-proBNP水平显著高于存活组患者,差异具有统计学意义(P<0.05);血浆Cys-C、NT-proBNP对老年CHF预后评估曲线下面积(area under curv,AUC)为0.6930(P=0.0009)、0.7982(P<0.0001)。结论老年CHF患者随BMI指数升高,血浆Cys-C、NT-proBNP水平逐渐升高,血浆Cys-C、NT-proBNP对老年CHF临床结局具有一定的预测价值,进一步研究有推广应用于老年CHF预后评估潜力。
