Abstract:

Objective To investigate the level of soluble receptor for advanced glycation endproducts(sRAGE) in patients with heart failure, to analyze the relationship between sRAGE and heart function. Methods Select 100 patients with heart failure treated in our hospital(NYHA Ⅱ-Ⅳ), at the same time collect 50 cases hospitalized without heart failure, record general condition, and use the ELISA method to detect the levels of plasma sRAGE, applied SPSS 16.0 software to carry on statistical analysis. Results The plasma sRAGE level was increased in patients with heart failure than the control group, showing a significant difference(P<0.01). Plasma sRAGE level in the control group was(0.562±0.473)ng/mL, in the heart failure group was(0.844±0.705)ng/mL. With the cardiac function classification increased, plasma sRAGE level was elevated also, the control group was(0.562±0.473)ng/mL, NYHAⅡ level group was(0.680±0.506)ng/mL, NYHAⅢ level group was(0.844±0.646)ng/mL, NYHAⅣ level was(1.077±0.910)ng/mL. there is a significant difference(P=0.004). The plasma level of sRAGE had negative correlation with LVEF in patients with heart failure. Conclusion The plasma level of sRAGE was elevated in patients with heart failure, the level of plasma sRAGE and severity degree of heart failure present a associated relationship, with NYHA heart function classification increased, the plasma sRAGE level was elevated too.

Key words: heart failure, soluble receptor for advanced glycation endproducts, severity level
