Plasma Protein Biomarkers and Long-Term Cardiovascular Mortality Risk in Patients With Chronic Coronary Heart Disease

Protein biomarkers that reflect different pathophysiological pathways have been associated with the risk of adverse cardiovascular events. However, it is uncertain whether these associations are sustained with increasing years after the biomarkers are measured. In this cohort study, 7745 patients wi...

Description
Summary:Protein biomarkers that reflect different pathophysiological pathways have been associated with the risk of adverse cardiovascular events. However, it is uncertain whether these associations are sustained with increasing years after the biomarkers are measured. In this cohort study, 7745 patients with coronary heart disease who participated in the LIPID (Long-Term Intervention With Pravastatin in Ischemic Disease) trial, BNP (B-type natriuretic peptide), troponin I, cystatin-C, C-reactive protein, d-dimer and midregional proadrenomedullin were measured at baseline and after 1 year. Discrimination of plasma biomarker concentrations for cardiovascular death were evaluated in landmark analyses from 1 year for the next 5 years of the randomized trial, and for 10 additional years after trial completion. All 6 biomarkers were associated with risk of cardiovascular death (n=1903) both during and after the clinical trial (each
