ABSTRACT
@#Objective To investigate the relationship between lipoprotein-associated phospholipase A2 (Lp-PLA2) level and in-hospital prognosis in patients with acute type A aortic dissection within 24 hours of admission. Methods Fortysix patients diagnosed with type A aortic dissection were included in our hospital and their Lp-PLA2 levels within 24 hours of admission were measured between January 2017 and June 2019. According to their Lp-PLA2 levels within 24 hours of admission, 23 patients were classified into a high Lp-PLA2 group (Lp-PLA2 > 200 μg/L, 16 males and 7 females at age of 52.0±14.0 years) and 23 patients were into a low Lp-PLA2 group (Lp-PLA2 ≤200 μg/L, 15 males and 8 females at age of 53.0±11.0 years). The relationship between Lp-PLA2 level and clinical outcome was analyzed. Results The incidences of bleeding, hospital infection, multiple organ dysfunction and mortality in the high Lp-PLA2 group were higher than those in the low Lp-PLA2 group (P<0.05). Seven (15.2%) patients died during 3 months of follow-up. The 3-month survival rate of patients with an increase of Lp-PLA2 was significantly lower than that of the patients with normal Lp-PLA2 (P<0.01), which was an independent predictor of adverse outcomes at 3 months of onset (P<0.01). Conclusion Lp-PLA2 may be a predictor of disease progression in the patients with acute type A aortic dissection, and the patients with significantly elevated Lp-PLA2 have a higher 3-month mortality than the patients with normal Lp-PLA2.
