Study on correlation between coronary artery lesion degree with plasma brain natriuretic peptide and central aortic pressure / 重庆医学

ABSTRACT

Objective To investigate the correlation between plasma brain natriuretic peptide (BNP) ,central aortic systolic pres-sure with the degree of coronary artery lesion .Methods One hundred and fifty patients with coronary artery disease ,positive coro-nary angiographic results and without heart failure in the cardiological department of this hospital from March to June 2011 were selected and divided into the hypertension group (n=90) and the non-hypertension group(n=60) according to the blood pressure . The plasma BNP before angiography was detected by ELISA .The coronary lesion vessels and clinical scores were assessed after an-giography .The central aortic pressure before angiography was measured by the noninvasive measurement method and the diastolic blood pressure(DBP) ,systolic blood pressure(SBP) and pulse pressure(PP)were recorded .The correlation between PP and BNP was analyzed by Logistic regression .Results The plasma BNP concentration in the hypertension group was significantly higher than that in the non-hypertension group(P<0 .05) .The SBP level in 2 vessels ,3 vessels was significantly higher than that in the momal coronary group(P<0 .05) ,the PP in 3 vessels was significantly higher than that in the momal coronary group (P<0 .05) . The BNP level in 3 vessels ,2 vessels and single vessel of coronary artery lesion was significantly higher than that in the normal cor-onary artery group(P<0 .05) .The Logistic regression analysis on the PP influencing factors found that PP was closely related with the number of coronary artery lesion vessels ,lesion score ,LVEF and BNP ;the multiple correlation coefficient between PP with the number of coronary artery lesion vessels ,lesion score and BPN was 0 .91 ,its linear model was PP=0 .543 lesion vessels number +0 .656 lesion score + 0 .864 BNP .Conclusion PP of the central aortic pressure is a risk factor for the development and progress of coronary artery stenosis occurrence .BNP may be used as a plasma marker of the degree of coronary artery stenosis .
