Relationships between plasma concentrations of angiotesin Ⅱ,aldosterone and left ventricular remodeling in the patients with chronic heart failure / 中国基层医药

ABSTRACT

Objective To investigate the correlation between the olasma concentrations of angiotesin Ⅱ,aldosterone and the parameters that reflected the reconstruction of left ventricular in chronic heart failur(CHF)patients.Methods 61 CHF pmiems and 20 normal control subjects were enrolled.plasma concentration of angiotesin Ⅱ,aldosterone were measured by specific radioimmunoassays.Two dimensional,M-mode and Doppler ultrasound recording were obtalned to determine left vantricular mass index(LVMI),left ventricular ejection fraction(LVEF)and maximal early transmitral flow velocity in diastole(VE)and maximal late transmittal flow velocity(VA).Results Baseline plasma concemrations of angiotesin Ⅱ,aldostemne were increased significantly in CHF patients as compared with normal thme of control group and were paralleled to the increase of NYHA cardiac functional classification of CHF(P＜0.01).Plasma concentrations of angiotesin Ⅱ,aldostemne were positively correlated with LVMI but negatively correlated with VE/VA(P＜0.01).Conclusion Plasma concentrations of angiotesin Ⅱ,aldosterone were increased signifcantly in CHF patients and might be involved in and regulated the reconstruction of left ventricular in CHF patients.
