Clinical Evaluation of High-Sensitive Troponin T in Acute Myocardial Infarction / 实用医学杂志

ABSTRACT

Objective To investigate the diagnostic value of High-Sensitive Troponin T(hs-TnT)in acute myocardial infarction(AMI). Methods One hundred and sixty nine patients with serum hs-TnT concentration≥0.014 μg/L in early hospitalization were enrolled in this study.The ROC curve was used to compare the concentra-tion of hs-TnT with four heart enzyme(CK,CK-MB,LDH,AST)on the diagnostic efficacy to AMI. The differ-ence of hs-TnT in different clinical data groups were investigated using Mann-Whitney U rank test.Then the correla-tion between hs-TnT and Gensini score of Coronary angiography was investigated using the Spearman rank correla-tion test.Results The concentration of hs-TnT in patients with chest pain was significantly higher than that in non-AMI group(P<0.05).The AUC of each ROC curve was hs-TnT(0.806)>CK-MB(0.792)>CK(0.780)>AST (0.704)> LDH(0.684). The optimal diagnostic point of hs-TnT was 0.152 ug/L(sensitivity 0.659,specificity 0.894,Yuden index 0.553).There was a positive correlation between hs-TnT and Gensini scores in men,age>65 years old and the chest tightness group(P < 0.05). Conclusion The hs-TnT is better than four heart enzyme in early diagnosis of AMI and benefit early treatment of AMI.
