Abstract
Background: The recognition ability of right ventricular-pulmonary artery (RV-PA) coupling for coronary artery lesions (CAL) in children with Kawasaki disease (KD) has not been well characterized. This study aimed to determine whether RV-PA coupling is an independent the risk factors for CAL in children with KD.
Methods: Between October 2021 and August 2023, RV-PA coupling was assessed in 59 KD children using the ratio between echocardiographic tricuspid annular plane systolic excursion and pulmonary artery systolic pressure (PASP). Multivariable logistic regression analysis was used to identify the independent risk factors for CAL among the demographic, clinical, laboratory and echocardiographic data.
Results: Twenty-nine of 59 KD children had CAL according to the diagnostic criteria of echocardiography. There were significantly different white blood cell count, C-reactive protein, erythrocyte sedimentation rate, left ventricular ejection fraction, PASP and RV-PA coupling at admission, and significantly different acute/subacute phase ratio of RV-PA coupling between KD children with and without CAL ( P < 0.05). Multivariate logistic regression analysis identified that acute/subacute phase ratio of RV-PA coupling (OR = 26.800; 95% CI, 1.276-562.668; P = 0.034) was an independent risk factor for CAL in children with KD. The area under receiver operating characteristic curve for the acute/subacute phase ratio of RV-PA coupling was 0.715 (95%CI: 0.624 - 0.825) to predict CAL in KD children ( P < 0.05), with a sensitivity of 81.25% and a specificity of 62.57% at the optimal cutoff value of 0.839.
Conclusion: The acute/subacute phase ratio of RV-PA coupling was an independent risk factor for CAL in KD children.
期刊介绍：
Coronary Artery Disease welcomes reports of original research with a clinical emphasis, including observational studies, clinical trials, translational research, novel imaging, pharmacology and interventional approaches as well as advances in laboratory research that contribute to the understanding of coronary artery disease. Each issue of Coronary Artery Disease is divided into four areas of focus: Original Research articles, Review in Depth articles by leading experts in the field, Editorials and Images in Coronary Artery Disease. The Editorials will comment on selected original research published in each issue of Coronary Artery Disease, as well as highlight controversies in coronary artery disease understanding and management.
Submitted artcles undergo a preliminary review by the editor. Some articles may be returned to authors without further consideration. Those being considered for publication will undergo further assessment and peer-review by the editors and those invited to do so from a reviewer pool.
