Abstract

Objective: To analyze the combination clinical value of plasma brain natriuretic peptide and serum glycated hemoglobin (HbAlc) in chronic pulmonary heart disease.

Methods: A total of 200 patients with chronic pulmonary heart disease admitted to our hospital from January 2021 to January 2022 were selected as the observation group, and 200 healthy subjects were selected as the control group during the same period. All subjects were examined by an ECG vector map and plasma BNP, and HbAlc levels were detected to analyze the value and clinical significance of each index in single diagnosis and combined diagnosis.

Results: Plasma BNP and HbAlc levels in the observation group were significantly higher than those in the control group (P < 0.05). There were 154 BNP positive, 146 HbAlc positive, 164 parallel combined diagnosis positive, and 132 serial combined diagnosis positive. Sensitivity of series combination diagnosis was significantly higher than other indexes (P < 0.05); especially, parallel combination diagnosis was significantly higher than other indexes (P < 0.05). Besides, area under the ROC curve of parallel combination diagnosis and series combination diagnosis was significantly higher than that of each index alone diagnosis (P < 0.05).

Conclusion: In the diagnosis of chronic pulmonary heart disease, the combination of plasma BNP and HbAlc can effectively improve the diagnostic specificity and sensitivity, as well as improve the area under the ROC curve.
