BACKGROUND Releasing cytokine pro inflammation in patients with sepsis (tumor necrosis factor-alpha (TNF-α), interleukin-1β (IL-1β) and IL-6) with other factors (mid regional pro atrial natriuretic peptide [MR-proANP] and TNF-α) will cause left ventricular systolic dysfunction (LVSD). This research aimed to prove MR-proANP as a biomarker of LVSD in sepsis, area under the curve (AUC), sensitivity, specificity, cut-off point and probability of MR-proANP and TNF-α as a biomarker of LVSD. METHODS Non-experimental diagnostic test with cross sectional design and simple random sampling. Variable examined consisted of MR pro ANP, TNF-α and left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF). LVSD if LVEF was ≤45%. Statistical analysis using 2 × 2 table and receiver operating characteristic curve using SPSS 22 for window. RESULTS There were examined 71 patients from November 2013 to March 2014 in tertiary ICU of Moewardi Hospital. There were 22 patients with mild sepsis (30.9%), 40 patients with severe sepsis (56.4%) and 9 patients with septic shock (12.7%). The AUC value of MR-proANP level was 0.84 (95% CI 0.73–0.95), p < 0.001. Optimal cut off point was ≥225.95 pmol/l and diagnostic odd ratio (DOR) was 12.11. The AUC value of TNF-α level was 0.73 (95% CI 0.60–0.86), p < 0.002. Optimal cut-off point was ≥7.36 pg/ml and DOR was 5.03. Multivariate analysis was resulted that MR-proANP was the best predictor of LVSD (AUC 0.78), and TNF-α (0.69). CONCLUSIONS MR-proANP could be used as a biomarker and the best diagnostic predictor of LVSD.

Background: Although natriuretic peptides are increasingly used for the management of chronic heart failure (CHF), there are sparse comparative data. Therefore, we compared the importance of influencing factors, the ability to detect left ventricular systolic dysfunction, and the prognostic power of midregional pro-atrial natriuretic peptide (MR-proANP), B-type natriuretic peptide (BNP), and aminoterminal pro-B-type natriuretic peptide (NT-proBNP) in patients with chronic heart failure. Methods and Results: MR-proANP, using a new assay directed at the midregion of aminoterminal-proANP, was compared with BNP and NT-proBNP, using conventional assays, in 797 patients with CHF. All three natriuretic peptides were independently influenced by left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF), glomerular filtration rate (GFR), and the presence of ankle edema. Area under receiver-operator characteristic curves for detection of an LVEF <40% were similar between MR-proANP (0.799 [0.753– 0.844]) and BNP (0.803 [0.757– 0.849]), and NT-proBNP (0.730 [0.681– 0.778]. During a median observation time of 68 months, 492 patients died. In multiple Cox regression analysis each natriuretic peptide was the strongest prognostic parameter among various clinical variables, but proportion of explained variation showed that NT-proANP was a significantly stronger predictor of death than NT-proBNP and BNP (Figure ). Conclusions: Despite similarities in influencing factors and detection of reduced LVEF, MR-proANP outperformed BNP and NT-proBNP in the prediction of death. A new assay technology and the high biological stability of MR-proANP are potential explanations for these findings.

The aim of the study was to investigate the features of clinically suspected myocarditis complicated by the left ventricular systolic dysfunction development. 93 patients with clinically suspected myocarditis were examined. The average age was 36.63 ± 1.15 years. In 43.01 % of patients the disease was accompanied by a decrease in left ventricular systolic function. In the group of patients with left ventricular systolic dysfunction in comparison with those with preserved left ventricular ejection fraction, a significantly lower proportion of men (75 % versus 81 %, respectively, χ2 = 9.3, p < 0,01) and a higher average group age (40.7 ± 1.87 versus 33.6 ± 1.3 years, respectively, p <  0,01) were revealed. The course of the disease in patients with left ventricular systolic dysfunction was characterized by a more frequent development of rhythm disturbances (65 % versus 43.3 %, respectively, χ2  = 4.3, p  < 0,05) and a higher heart rate at admission (94.5 (75‒100) and 85 (70‒89) beats per minute, respectively, p = 0.006). The structural and functional state of the heart according to echocardiography in patients with a reduced left ventricular ejection fraction versus comparison group was characterized by larger heart chambers sizes, more pronounced violations of local left ventricular contractility, more frequent involvement of the right ventricle in the pathological process (56.3  % versus 22.2  %, respectively, χ2   =  6.4, p  < 0,05).
