Value of heart-type fatty acid-binding protein in predicting prognosis of patients with sepsis / 中华急诊医学杂志

ABSTRACT

Objective To study the predictive value of heart-type fatty acid-binding protein (H-FABP) in the improvement of survival rate in patients with severe sepsis.Methods There was a prospective case-control study in 50 patients with severe sepsis from October 2014 to October 2015.According to the international guidelines for severe sepsis and septic shock set in 2012,all patients were divided into sepsis group (n =16),severe sepsis group (n =14) and septic shock group (n =20),and these patients were further divided into to survival group (n =22) and non-survival group (n =28) as per patients surviving within 28 days.Gender,age,ethnic,and Acute Physiology and Chronic Health Evaluation score (APACHE Ⅱ) were recorded.H-FABP,B-type natriuretic peptide (BNP),creatine kinase (CK),creatine kinase isoenzyme (CK-MB),and troponin-T (cTn-T) were determined within 6 hours after admission.The statistical software SPSS21.0 was used to do t test,test,and the receiver operating characteristic curve for comparison between groups.Results H-FABP in septic shock group was higher than severe sepsis group and sepsis group (P ＜ 0.01).The 28-day mortality of septic group (80％) and severe sepsis group (71.4％) were higher than sepsis group (12.5％) (P ＜ 0.01).Non-survival' s H-FABP,BNP,cTn-T,CK,CKMB was higher than survivals (P ＜ 0.05).Through the ROC of H-FABP (AUC=0.748,P=0.003,95％ C I0.605-0.890) and BNP (AUC =0.714,P=0.010,95％ CI0.573-0.856),it shows that H-FABP is better than BNP.when H-FABP take 9.902 ng/mL,the sensitivity of 82.1％,specificity of 63.6％.H-FABP,BNP has a certain value in 28-day mortality prediction.Conclusions Sepsis shock has significantly higher 28-day mortality than sepsis and severe sepsis.Compared with BNP,H-FABP has greater predictive value in sepsis patients,it will increase along with the aggravation of the disease;it can also predict 28-day mortality.
