Prognostic Anticipant Value of Blood Serum C-Reactive Protein on Unstable Angina Pectoris Sufferers.

Objective Explore the relationship between C-reac ti ve protein (CRP) of unstable angina pectoris (UAP) sufferers and cardiovascular disease. Methods According to the CRP level after entering hospi tal 24 hours, 104 patients with UAP were divided into 2 groups: low CRP group (C RP3.5mg/L; 46 cases) and high CRP group (CRP3.5mg/L;58 cases). All patien ts in two groups were given routine internal medicine treatment. Compare the inc idence of cardiovascular disease in 2 weeks and in following 6 months. R esults (1)There were 158 and 286 UAP occurring in low CRP group and high CRP group, respectively (average 3.43 times/person and 4.93 times/person, respe ctively) in 2 weeks. UAP incidence in high CRP group was significantly higher th an that in low CRP group (P0.05). In the following 6 months, there were 2 01 and 763 UAP occurring in low CRP group and high CRP group, respectively(avera ge 4.37 times/person and 13.1 times/person, respectively). UAP incidence in hig h CRP group was markedly higher than that in low CRP group (P0.01). (2)In 2 weeks and 6 months, there were 6 and 2 acute myocardial infarction (AMI) in lo w CRP group and 18 and 13 AMI in high CRP group. AMI incidence in high CRP group was markedly higher than that in low CRP group (P0.05). (3)Sudden death in high CRP group and low CRP group was no difference (P0.05). Co nclusions CRP has highly anticipant value for UAP and AMI.
