Abstract

OBJECTIVES The aim of this study was to examine the value of measurement of the interleukin-1 receptor family member ST2 in patients with dyspnea. BACKGROUND Concentrations of ST2 have been reported to be elevated in patients with heart failure (HF). METHODS Five hundred ninety-three dyspneic patients with and without acute destabilized HF presenting to an urban emergency department were evaluated with measurements of ST2 concentrations. Independent predictors of death at 1 year were identified. RESULTS Concentrations of ST2 were higher among those with acute HF compared with those without (0.50 vs. 0.15 ng/ml; p < 0.001), although amino-terminal pro-brain natriuretic peptide (NT-proBNP) was superior to ST2 for diagnosis of acute HF. Median concentrations of ST2 at presentation to the emergency department were higher among decedents than survivors at 1 year (1.08 vs. 0.18 ng/ml; p < 0.001), and in multivariable analyses, an ST2 concentration > or =0.20 ng/ml strongly predicted death at 1 year in dyspneic patients as a whole (HR = 5.6, 95% confidence interval [CI] 2.2 to 14.2; p < 0.001) as well as those with acute HF (hazard ratio [HR] = 9.3, 95% CI 1.3 to 17.8; p = 0.03). This risk associated with an elevated ST2 in dyspneic patients with and without HF appeared early and was sustained at 1 year after presentation (log-rank p value <0.001). A multi-marker approach with both ST2 and NT-proBNP levels identified subjects with the highest risk for death. CONCLUSIONS Among dyspneic patients with and without acute HF, ST2 concentrations are strongly predictive of mortality at 1 year and might be useful for prognostication when used alone or together with NT-proBNP.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
