背景:C反应蛋白/白蛋白比值(CAR)似乎反映了几种急性疾病的严重程度和预后,尤其是老年患者,然而,在一般人群中,人们对CAR是否优于C反应蛋白(CRP)知之甚少.
方法:英国生物库的前瞻性研究设计,其中使用CRP和白蛋白的血清样品。进行Cox回归分析以评估全因死亡率和心血管死亡率。心肌梗塞,缺血性卒中,和心力衰竭在大约12.5年的随访期。Cox模型根据已建立的心血管疾病(CVD)危险因素进行调整,包括年龄,性别,吸烟习惯,身体活动水平,BMI水平,收缩压,LDL-胆固醇,他汀类药物治疗,糖尿病,和以前的CVD,风险比(HR)和相应的95%置信区间(CI)。分析也按性别分层,CRP水平(<10和≥10mg/ml)和年龄(<60和≥60岁)。
结果:总计,包括411506人(男性186043人,女性225463人)。在所有不良后果的HR之间的比较中,CAR和CRP的结果相似或相同.例如,CAR和CRP,全因死亡率的校正HR为1.13(95%CI1.12-1.14).关于CVD死亡率,CAR的调整后HR为1.14(95%CI1.12-1.15),而对于CRP,为1.13(95%CI1.11-1.15)。
结论:在本研究中,CAR对死亡率或CVD疾病的预测能力并不优于CRP。
背景:不适用(队列研究)。
BACKGROUND: The C-reactive protein/albumin ratio (CAR) seems to mirror disease severity and prognosis in several acute disorders particularly in elderly patients, yet less is known about if CAR is superior to C-reactive protein (CRP) in the general population.
METHODS: Prospective study design on the UK Biobank, where serum samples of CRP and Albumin were used. Cox regression analyses were conducted to assess all-cause and cardiovascular mortality, myocardial infarction, ischemic stroke, and heart failure over a follow-up period of approximately 12.5 years. The Cox model was adjusted for established cardiovascular disease (CVD) risk factors, including age, sex, smoking habits, physical activity level, BMI level, systolic blood pressure, LDL-cholesterol, statin treatment, diabetes, and previous CVD, with hazard ratios (HRs) and corresponding 95% confidence intervals (CIs). Analyses were also stratified by sex, CRP level (< 10 and ≥ 10 mg/ml) and age (< 60 and ≥ 60 years).
RESULTS: In total, 411,506 individuals (186,043 men and 225,463 women) were included. In comparisons between HRs for all adverse outcomes, the results were similar or identical for CAR and CRP. For example, both CAR and CRP, adjusted HRs for all-cause mortality were 1.13 (95% CI 1.12-1.14). Regarding CVD mortality, the adjusted HR for CAR was 1.14 (95% CI 1.12-1.15), while for CRP, it was 1.13 (95% CI 1.11-1.15).
CONCLUSIONS: Within this study CAR was not superior to CRP in predictive ability of mortality or CVD disorders.
BACKGROUND: Not applicable (cohort study).
