ABSTRACT

Objective:

To investigate the relationship of glycated hemoglobin(HbA1c)and brain natriuretic peptide(BNP)levels with clinical prognosis of acute myocardial infarction.

Methods:

A total of 108 patients with acute myocardial infarction combined with diabetes mellitus, who underwent percutaneous coronary intervention(PCI)from March 2016 to June 2017 in our hospital, were enrolled.According to the HbA1c level, patients were divided into three groups Group A(HbA1c≤6.9%, n=36), Group B(7%≤HbA1c≤7.9%, n=31)and Group C(HbA1c≥8%, n=41). HbA1c and NT-proBNP levels, cardiac function classification at admission and discharge, the incidence of adverse cardiac events during hospitalization and left ventricular ejection fraction(LVEF)at admission, discharge and 3 months after discharge were analyzed.

Results:

Among the three groups, plasma NT-proBNP levels were higher in Group C than in Group B and Group A( P<0.05), and there was no significant difference between Group B and Group C( P<0.05). Furthermore, HbA1c levels were positively correlated with NT-proBNP levels in Group C( P<0.05). Cardiac function grading was better in Group A and Group B than in Group C at discharge.During hospitalization, the incidence of adverse cardiac events in Group C was 29.3%, which was higher than in Group A(8.3%)and Group B(9.7%)( P<0.05). LVEF levels were significantly improved in Group A and Group B at discharge and 3 months after discharge, compared with those at admission, while Group C had no significant improvement in LVEF levels and had lower LVEF than Group A and Group B( P<0.05).

Conclusions:

HbA1c and NT proBNP levels can be used as a joint monitoring indicator in patients with acute myocardial infarctions after PCI, to help prevent and reduce the incidence of complications and mortality in patients with acute myocardial infarction after PCI and improve clinical prognosis.
