Association of fibrotic markers with diastolic function after STEMI
Galectin-3 and Suppression of tumorigenicity-2 (ST2) are known markers of cardiac fibrosis. We investigated the prognostic value of fibrotic markers for the development of diastolic dysfunction and long-term outcome in patients suffering an ST-elevated myocardial infarction (STEMI). We analyzed 236...

Summary: | Galectin-3 and Suppression of tumorigenicity-2 (ST2) are known markers of cardiac fibrosis. We investigated the prognostic value of fibrotic markers for the development of diastolic dysfunction and long-term outcome in patients suffering an ST-elevated myocardial infarction (STEMI). We analyzed 236 patients from the GIPS-III cohort with available echocardiographic studies and plasma measurements at hospitalization and after 4 months follow-up. Adjusted logistic mixed effects modelling revealed no association between the occurrence of diastolic dysfunction over time with abnormal plasma levels of galectin-3 and ST2. We observed no differences regarding survival outcome at follow-up of 5 years between patients with normal versus abnormal values in both galectin-3 (
P
= 0.75), and ST2 (
P
= 0.85). In conclusion, galectin-3 and sST2 were not associated with the development of diastolic dysfunction in non-diabetic patients that presented with a STEMI. |
