Abstract
Abstract
Background
Calcific aortic valve disease (CAVD) has a substantial and increasing burden in the ageing population with occult onset.Present study aimed to assess association of clinical characteristics of these patients and occurrence of CAVD.
Methods
Patients diagnosed with CAVD and those receiving healthy medical examination in our hospital from January 2019 to February 2021 were enrolled in this retrospective study. Clinical characteristics, ultrasonic indicators, serological indicators and histology of CAVD were collected and compared among different groups. Logistic regression and Pearson correlation analysis was used to explore relationship between these indexes and occurrence of CAVD.
Results
DBP, SBP, LVESD, LVEDD, IVS, PW, AV Vmax, TC, TG, LDL-C, Fetuin-A, Lp(a) in severe group were higher than mild, moderate and control groups (P<0.05), while those indexes of patients in moderate group were higher than that in mild and controlled groups (P<0.05). Besides, theses indexes of patients in mild group were also higher than that of controlled one (P<0.05). However, LVEF, HDL-C and MGP of patients in severe group was the lowest (P<0.05), while those in moderate group were lower than mild and controlled groups. Moreover, these indexes in mild group were also lower than control group (P<0.05). In Logistic regression analysis, MGP, Fetuin-A and Lp(a) were all independently associated with occurrence of CAVD (P<0.05). In Pearson correlation analysis, Fetuin-A and Lp(a) were positively correlated with progression of the disease, while MGP and macrophage density were negatively correlated with it.
Conclusions
Fetuin-A, MPG and Lp(a) were independently associated with the occurrence of CAVD, and they might be potential predictors for diagnosis of this disease.
