Prognostic influence of fibroblast growth factor 23 on the course of coronary heart disease in patients with chronic kidney disease

Abstract

Objective: to study the prognostic impact of the level of fibroblast growth factors 23 on coronary heart disease depending on the stage of chronic kidney disease. Materials and methods: the study included 108 patients with coronary heart disease (CHD), stable angina (stress), functional class 1–3, chronic kidney disease (CKD) C1–C4, average age was 67,62±12,51 years (55 men and 53 women). The level of fibroblast growth factor 23 was assessed using the Biomedica FGF 23 multimatrix enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay. After 12 months of follow-up, the presence of a cumulative endpoint including the occurrence of acute coronary syndrome, stroke, transient ischemic attack, heart failure and death. Differences in data and correlations between them were considered statistically significant at p<0.05. Results: the developed prognostic model to determine the likelihood of cardiovascular complications in patients with coronary artery disease and CKD found that the FGF 23 level is equal to 27.9 with a sensitivity of 62.7% and specificity of 62.5% to distinguish patients with ischemic heart disease and CKD in whom a cumulative endpoint will occur over 12 months of follow-up. Conclusions: to identify patients at high risk of cardiovascular complications in coronary artery disease and CKD, it is advisable to use determination of FGF 23 level.
