ABSTRACT
Objective To explore the correlation between serum growth differentiation factor‐15(GDF‐15) level and acute myocardial infarction(AMI) to provide a basis for the prognostic evaluation of AMI .Methods Totally 192 Han patients with AMI (AMI group) and non‐coronary heart disease (NCHD ,NCHD group) diagnosed in Chengde Municipal Central Hospital from Sep‐tember 2013 to January 2015 ,were selected and their clinical data were collected .The biochemical markers and serum GDF‐15 level were detected .Results Comparing the AMI group with the NCHD group ,differences in the patients′age ,smoking ,blood glucose (Glu) ,TC ,TG ,LDL‐C levels had statistical significance (P<0 .05);the serum GDF‐15 level in the AMI group was significantly higher than that in the NCHD ;serum GDF‐15 level was positively correlated with TC ,LDL‐C ,hs‐CRP and Glu in the AMI group . Conclusion The increase of serum GDF‐15 level is obviously correlated AMI ,therefore GDF‐15 can serve as an indicator for moni‐toring myocardial infarction .
