Аннотация
OBJECTIVE: To compare the values of N-Terminal Pro-Brain Natriuretic Peptide (NT-proBNP) in acute phase of Kawasaki disease (KD), sepsis and other acute febrile illnesses.
METHODS: We conducted a cross-sectional study on 40 KD patients and 40 age- and sex-matched controls with sepsis and other febrile illnesses between January, 2019 and June, 2020. Complete blood count, C-reactive protein (CRP), liver and renal function tests, serum electrolytes, chest X-ray, NT-proBNP level, Bactec blood culture, urine microscopy and culture along with detailed physical examination was done for all cases and control.
RESULTS: Mean (SD) values of NT-proBNP levels in acute KD was higher than sepsis/other febrile illnesses (914.9 vs 219 pg/mL; P=0.001). Also, the number of KD patients whose NT-proBNP was elevated were significantly higher compared to controls (70% vs 32.5%; P<0.001).
CONCLUSION: NT-proBNP may be useful as a biomarker in the diagnosis of acute phase KD.
