Abstract:

Objective To investigate the correlation between Ficolin-2, Ficolin-3 and the degree of coronary artery stenosis in patients with coronary heart disease and its influence on prognosis. Methods A total of 137 patients with stable coronary heart disease were classified as the coronary heart disease group. Gensini score was used to evaluate the degree of coronary artery stenosis. According to the score, patients were divided into the mild group (56 cases), the moderate group (49 cases) and the severe group (32 cases). According to the occurrence of major adverse cardiac events (MACEs) within 3 months, patients were divided into the good prognosis group (108 cases) and the poor prognosis group (29 cases). Sixty healthy subjects in the same period were selected as the control group. The clinical data of each group were collected, and serum levels of Ficolin-2 and Ficolin-3 were detected. Pearson product moment correlation analysis was used to analyze the correlation between Ficolin-2, Ficolin-3 and Gensini. Logistic regression analysis was used to analyze the influencing factors of poor prognosis. The working characteristic (ROC) curve of subjects was used to evaluate the predictive value of Ficolin-2 and Ficolin-3 for the poor prognosis. Results The serum levels of Ficolin-2 and Ficolin-3 were lower in the coronary heart disease group than those in the control group (P<0.05). The serum levels of Ficolin-2 and Ficolin-3 in the mild group, the moderate group and the severe group were decreased successively (P<0.05). The serum Ficolin-2 and Ficolin-3 levels were negatively correlated with the Gensini score in patients with coronary heart disease (r=-0.708, -0.722, P<0.05). The number of coronary artery lesions and Gensini score were independent risk factors for poor prognosis in patients with coronary heart disease [OR=1.451 (95%CI: 1.292-1.628)]. The higher levels of Ficolin-2 and Ficolin-3 were independent protective factors [OR=0.815 (95%CI: 0.730-0.909) and 0.853 (95%CI: 0.787-0.924)]. The AUC of the combination of Ficolin-2 and Ficolin-3 in predicting the poor prognosis of patients with coronary heart disease was higher than that of the single index (Z=3.186, 2.953, P<0.05). Conclusion The serum levels of Ficolin-2 and Ficolin-3 are decreased in patients with coronary heart disease, and are negatively correlated with the degree of coronary artery stenosis. The combined detection of the two indicators can predict the poor prognosis of patients with coronary heart disease, and the sensitivity is high.
