Abstract
Community-acquired pneumonia (CAP) increases the risk of cardiovascular complications during and following the episode. The goal of this study was to determine the usefulness of cardiovascular and inflammatory biomarkers for assessing the risk of early (within 30 days) or long-term (1-year follow-up) cardiovascular events. A total of 730 hospitalized patients with CAP were prospectively followed up during 1 year. Cardiovascular (proadrenomedullin [proADM], pro-B-type natriuretic peptide (proBNP), proendothelin-1, and troponin T) and inflammatory (interleukin 6 [IL-6], C-reactive protein, and procalcitonin) biomarkers were measured on day 1, at day 4/5, and at day 30. Ninety-two patients developed an early event, and 67 developed a long-term event. Significantly higher initial levels of proADM, proendothelin-1, troponin, proBNP, and IL-6 were recorded in patients who developed cardiovascular events. Despite a decrease at day 4/5, levels remained steady until day 30 in those who developed late events. Biomarkers (days 1 and 30) independently predicted cardiovascular events adjusted for age, previous cardiac disease, Pao2/Fio2 < 250 mm Hg, and sepsis: ORs (95% CIs), proendothelin-1, 2.25 (1.34-3.79); proADM, 2.53 (1.53-4.20); proB...Continue Reading
