Abstract
Objective : To investigate the relationship between resistin plasma levels in patients with acute
coronary syndrome (ACS) as risk factor for cardiovascular event (CVE)
Methods :
This was a cohort prospective study of patients with ACS with 68 samples from February 2012
until January 2013. Relative risk was considered significantly minimal = 1,5. The cut off point
for low resistin was ≤ 2,33 ng/ml and the cut off point for high resistin was ≥ 2,33 ng/ml
Results :
The cardiovascular events were occured significantly with higher serum resistin levels in patient
with acute coronary syndrome with analysis cox proportional model HR 1,72 ,CI 95% ; 1,28 to
2,32, p = 0,01, and result of analysis cox proportional models of the effect resistin with
conventional risk (dyslipidemia, hypertension, diabetes mellitus, obesity, smoking and age on
inscidence of cardiovascular events HR 1,66, CI 95% ; 1,19 to 2,31, p = 0,01 Results showed
there was a significant relationship between high resistin and risk of cardiovascular event in
patient with acute coronary syndrome
Conclusions :
High resistin serum levels was independently associated with risk of cardiovascular event in
patients acute coronary syndrome
