ABSTRACT

Objective To investigate the relationship between plasma activin A (ACTA),B－type natriuretic peptide(BNP),growth differentiation factor －15 (GDF－15) and interleukin－6 ( IL－6) levels and heart failure. Methods From January 2017 to December 2018,80 patients with acute heart failure admitted to Lishui Central Hospitalwere selected as observation group.According to NYHA cardiac function classification , 23 patients were classified as grade II,30 patients were classified as grade Ⅲand 27 patients were classified as grade Ⅳ.Another 60 healthy people were selected as control group from January 2017 to December 2018.The left ventricular end －diastolic diameter(LVEDD) and left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) were measured by Doppler echocardiography ,and the levels of ACTA, BNP, GDF －15 and IL －6 were measured by ELISA.Results The plasma ACTA [(2.43 ± 0.54)ng／mL],BNP[(219.31 ±34.25)ng／L],GDF－15[(854.31 ±46.57)ng／L],IL－6[(183.25 ±39.89)ng／L] in the observation group were significantly higher than those in the control group [(0.32 ±0.10) ng／mL,(16.74 ± 3.89)ng／L,(467.52 ±60.91)ng／L,(40.31 ±6.57) ng／L]( t＝29.859,45.553,42.591,27.455,all P＜0.05). The LVEDD[(65.73 ±5.38) mm] in the observation group was higher than that in the control group [(47.83 ± 4.31)mm],while the LVEF[(39.82 ±3.56)%]was lower than that in the control group [(64.32 ±4.16)%]( t＝21.170,37.475,all P＜0.05).The ACTA [(3.98 ±0.58) ng／mL],BNP[(304.21 ±41.30) ng／L],GDF－15 [(989.83 ±50.38) ng／L],IL－6[(249.81 ±45.61) ng／L] in grad Ⅳ group were lower than those in grade Ⅱgroup[(1.17 ±0.21)ng／mL,(135.42 ±23.98)ng／L,(735.24 ±41.87)ng／L,(120.74 ±33.45)ng／L] and gradeⅢgroup[(2.41 ±0.52)ng／mL,(217.27 ±35.46)ng／L,(861.32 ±53.46) ng／L,(185.42 ±42.31) ng／L] ( F＝8.391,23.154,17.849,14.568,all P＜0.05).The plasma levels of ACTA,BNP,GDF－15 and IL－6 in gradeⅢgroup were lower than those in gradeⅡgroup (t＝10.764,9.517,9.322,6.025,all P＜0.05).The LVEDD[(72.31 ± 5.91) mm] in grade Ⅳ group was higher than that in grade Ⅱ group [(58.98 ±4.64) mm] and grade Ⅲ group [(66.01 ±5.48) mm], and the LVEF [( 29.97 ±3.36)%] was lower than that in grade Ⅱ group [(51.54 ± 3.27)%]and gradeⅢgroup[(40.35 ±3.81)%],the differences were statistically significant (F＝12.415,9.829, all P＜0.05).The LVEDD in grade Ⅲgroup was higher than that in grade Ⅱgroup,and the LVEF was lower than that in gradeⅡgroup,the differences were statistically significant ( t ＝4.176,10.856,all P＜0.05).Conclusion The levels of ACTA,BNP,GDF－15 and IL－6 in plasma are increased in patients with acute heart failure ,and are closely related to the progress of the disease.They can be used as diagnostic and prognostic indicators of acute heart failure.
