ABSTRACT
OBJECTIVES:
Patients with stroke often remain bedridden despite rehabilitation. Serum N-terminal pro-B-type natriuretic peptide (NT-pro-BNP) levels increase after stroke. Our study aimed to investigate the difference in NT-pro-BNP levels between bedridden and non-bedridden patients with stroke and to explore the factors influencing NT-pro-BNP levels in bedridden patients.DESIGN:
A single-centre, cross-sectional study.SETTING:
This study was conducted in a hospital, Shenzhen, China.PARTICIPANTS:
Between January 2019 and December 2022, 465 participants were included in this study. OUTCOMEMEASURES:
The collected data included basic information, laboratory data and echocardiographic parameters. Binary logistic regression analysis and receiver operating characteristic curves were used to identify factors associated with high NT-pro-BNP levels.RESULTS:
Bedridden patients with stroke had higher levels of NT-pro-BNP, D-dimer, high-sensitivity C reactive protein (hs-CRP) and lower levels of creatinine, high-density lipoprotein cholesterol, albumin and haemoglobin, as well as lower left ventricular ejection fraction, fractional shortening and the ratio between the peak velocities of early and late diastolic filling than non-bedridden patients. In bedridden patients, age ≥75 years, high levels of hs-CRP and creatinine, and low levels of albumin were associated with high NT-pro-BNP levels. In non-bedridden patients, age ≥75 years and high creatinine levels were associated with high NT-pro-BNP levels. In bedridden patients with stroke, the area under the curve (AUC) of hs-CRP was 0.700 (p<0.001, 95% CI 0.638 to 0.762) with a cut-off value of 5.12 mg/L. The AUC of albumin was 0.671 (p<0.001, 95% CI 0.606 to 0.736) with a cut-off value of 37.15 g/L.CONCLUSIONS:
NT-pro-BNP levels were higher in bedridden patients with stroke than in non-bedridden patients. Decreased albumin and elevated hs-CRP levels were associated with high levels of NT-pro-BNP in bedridden patients. Further studies are needed to explore the risk stratification and potential treatments for elevated NT-pro-BNP in bedridden patients with stroke.Palabras clave
