Differential prognostic utility of NTproBNP and Cystatin C in patients with acute exacerbation of chronic pulmonary disease

Abstract: ObjectivesTo determine whether serum Cystatin C (CysC) and NTproBNP have prognostic value among patients with long-standing chronic lung disease.DesignProspective, observational, non-interventional study.SettingCysC and NTproBNP are prognostic markers in several cardiac conditions. In addition, CysC acts as an antiprotease following Cathepsin activation, which has been involved in the pathogenesis of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease.ParticipantsPatients with a basal functional status of II-IV (NYHA), admi… Show more

“…This is carried out by inflammatory mediators like serine proteases, metalloproteinases etc. 10 Amongst various complications of COPD, cardiovascular disease is being increasingly recognized as an important cause of morbidity and a predictor of in-hospital mortality in these patients as acute respiratory failure in patients may lead to right or left ventricular failure. It was found in one of the studies that 12-37% of patients of COPD died of cardiovascular diseases.…”

“…Takeyabu et al 25 reported that increased levels of CysC were present in the bronchoalveolar lavage fluid from subjects with subclinical emphysema. Pérez-Calvo et al 15 analyzed CysC levels at the time of admission in 107 subjects with exacerbation of chronic lung disease. During a 12-month follow-up, the mortality, new hospital admissions, and prescriptions of diuretics were recorded.…”

“…14 Another study examined the 1-y prognostic value of elevated CysC among subjects with exacerbation of chronic lung disease who were hospitalized and showed that CysC has no predictive value for mortality in subjects with chronic respiratory disease. 15 However, no articles have presented an evaluation of the prognostic value of CysC in subjects with COPD exacerbation. It is possible that CysC measurements can contribute to the early identification of patients at risk for the development of clinically important ventricular dysfunction.…”

“…In patients with chronic respiratory diseases N-terminal pro-B-type natriuretic peptide has predictive value in terms of mortality whereas Cystatin C alone does not 51 . When used together, Cystatin C adds complementary information to the data provided by N-terminal pro-B-type natriuretic peptide alone; contributing valuable information to the early identification of patients at risk of developing clinical ventricular dysfunction 51 .This combined biomarker analysis could be an alternative for identifying patients at increased risk, even though they only have slightly impaired cardiac or renal function but may be said to have cardio-renal syndrome 45 .…”

“…Epidemiologic studies have shown that Cystatin C is an independent predictor in older adults, more sensitive than creatinine and glomerular filtration rate for detecting a high risk of with an increased risk of renal disease progression, death, or cardiovascular events, death and cardiovascular events in a population with chronic kidney disease 49 50 . It also provided significant prognostic information, in terms of morbidity and mortality, among hypertensive, coronary, acute and chronic heart failure patients 51 .…”
