Abstract

Objective: Pulmonary thromboembolism (PTE) is a clinical condition that can be lethal unless promptly diagnosed and treated. The objective was to evaluate the signifi-cance of serum neutrophil gelatinase-associated lipocalin (NGAL) in the diagnosis of PTE.Materials and methods: In this study, 60 patients hospi-talized for acute PTE between May 2015 and December 2016 were enrolled. PTE was diagnosed using spiral com-puted tomography angiography of the thorax. Cardiac enzyme levels, arterial blood gas, and echocardiography measurements were performed. Whole blood samples were drawn to measure serum NGAL before treatment.Results: The PTE group comprised 34 women and 26 men, and the healthy control group included 22 women and 18 men. The mean ages of the patient and control groups were 70.3 ± 14.4 years and 69.0 ± 10.2 years, respectively. Serum NGAL was significantly higher in the patients than in the controls (88.6 ± 33.6 vs. 31.7 ± 10.0 ng/mL, p 50 ng/mL, the sensitivity was 100%, specificity was 98.3%, the negative predictive value was 100%, and the positive predictive value was 68%.Conclusion: Serum NGAL is a new biomarker with high sensitivity and specificity to detect, diagnose, and exclude PTE.

Özet

Amaç: Pulmoner tromboembolizm (PTE), hızlı tanıkonulup tedavi edilmediğinde öldürücü olabilen klinikbir durumdur. Bu çalışmada amacımız PTE tanısındaserum nötrofil jelatinaz ilişkili lipokalinin (NGAL) öneminideğerlendirmekti. Gereç ve Yöntem: Bu çalışmaya Mayıs 2015 – Aralık 2016tarihleri arasında akut PTE nedeniyle hospitalize edilen60 hasta alındı. PTE tanısı toraks spiral bilgisayarlı tomog- rafisi ile kondu. Kardiyak enzim düzeyi, arter kan gazı veekokardiyografi ölçümleri yapıldı. Tedavi öncesi serumNGAL düzeyini ölçmek için tam kan örnekleri alındı. Bulgular: PTE grubunun 34’ü kadın, 26’sı erkek, sağlıklıkontrol grubunun 22’si kadın,18’I erkek hastalardan oluş- maktaydı. PTE grubunun ve kontrol grubunun yaş ortala- maları sırası ile 70.3 ± 14.4 ve 69.0 ± 10.2 idi. Serum NGAL,PTE grubunda kontrol grubundan anlamlı derecede yük- sekti (88.6 ± 33.6’ya karşılık 31.7 ± 10.0 ng/mL, p 50 ng/mL alındığında,duyarlılık % 100, özgüllük % 98.3, negatif prediktif değer% 100 ve pozitif prediktif değer % 68 saptandı. Sonuç: Serum NGAL, PTE’yi saptama, tanısını koymave dışlama konularında yüksek duyarlılığa ve özgüllüğesahip yeni bir biyobelirteçtir.
