Correlation between peripheral blood inflammatory factors and quality of life in patients with atrial fibrillation
连续纳入2013年12月至2015年7月在陆军军医大学第一附属医院心血管内科住院的新发非瓣膜性房颤患者258例。在患者初次住院时检测外周血常规炎症因子C反应蛋白(C-reactive protein,CRP)、血清白蛋白(albumin,ALB)、血小板淋巴细胞比值(platelet to lymphocyte ratio,PLR)、中性粒细胞淋巴细胞比值(neutrophil to lymphocyte ratio,NLR)、淋巴细胞单核细胞比值(lymphocyte to monocyte ratio,LMR)、D-二聚体(D-dimer),采用房颤生活质量量表(Atrial Fibrillation Effect on Quality of Life,AFEQT)收集患者生活质量数据,运用Spearman相关和偏相关分析外周血炎症因子与生活质量的关联。
To investigate the quality of life in patients with atrial fibrillation (AF) and to analyze its correlation with peripheral blood inflammatory factors.
Methods
2
A total of 258 patients with new-onset non-valvular AF who were admitted to the Department of Cardiology of the First Affiliated Hospital of Army Medical University from December 2013 to July 2015 were enrolled consecutively. The peripheral blood inflammatory factors
including C-reactive protein (CRP)
albumin (ALB) and D-dimer
and platele to lymphocyte ratio (PLR)
neutrophil to lymphocyte ratio (NLR) and lymphocyte to monocyte ratio (LMR) were detected and calculated at admission. Atrial Fibrillation Effect on Quality of Life (AFEQT) questionnaire was adopted to assess the quality of life of these patients. Spearman correlation and partial correlation were used to analyze the correlation between peripheral blood inflammatory factors and quality of life.
Results
2
The correlation between the overall quality of life score and baseline variables such as age
gender
educational level
smoking
drinking
taking statins
history
of hypertension or diabetes was statistically significant among the 230 patients who completed the questionaire about quality of life (
P
<
0.05). Spearman correlation analysis showed that D-dimer was negatively correlated with symptom scores (
P
<
0.05)
and D-dimer and NLR were negatively while LMR positively correlated with daily activity scores and overall scores (
P
<
0.05). After adjustiment of confounders
the partial correlation analysis represented a negative correlation between D-dimer and daily activity scores in the patients (
r
=-0.136
P
=0.044).
Conclusion
2
Elevated D-dimer level suggests lower ability to perform daily activities in AF patients
and may affect their quality of life.
