Abstract:

Background

Diuretic resistance is associated with increased mortality in patients with heart failure (HF). Qi Li Qiang Xin Jiao Nang, a Traditional Chinese Medicine, are used in the treatment of HF. However, clinical evidence of their effectiveness in improving diuretic resistance is lacking.

Objective

To investigate whether Qi Li Qiang Xin Jiao Nang can reduce the risk of diuretic resistance and improve prognosis in patients with acute decompensated chronic heart failure (ADCHF) .

Methods

This study included 374 HF patients treated in the CICU ward of Tianjin University Chest Hospital from January 2018 to June 2022. Patients were divided into diuretic resistance (118 patients) and non-diuretic resistance groups (256 patients) based on the occurrence of diuretic resistance. Patient data and laboratory results were collected. A 12-month follow-up was conducted to observe rehospitalization due to cardiovascular events or all-cause mortality. Kaplan-Meyer survival curves were plotted for each group, and the Log-rank test was used for comparison. Multivariate Logistic regression analysis was performed to explore factors influencing diuretic resistance. Multivariable Cox regression analysis was used to explore factors affecting the occurrence of endpoint events in ADCHF patients.

Results

The diuretic resistance group showed higher age, body mass, NT-proBNP, blood urea nitrogen, creatinine, uric acid, and international normalized ratio (INR) but lower 24-hour fluid intake, estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR), lymphocyte count, and usage of Qi Li Qiang Xin Jiao Nang. Multivariate Logistic regression analysis indicated that the use of Qi Li Qiang Xin Jiao Nang (OR=0.363, 95%CI=0.186-0.708, P=0.003) and increased 24-hour fluid intake (OR=0.286, 95%CI=0.177-0.461, P<0.001) were protective factors against diuretic resistance in ADCHF patients. Increased body mass (OR=1.064, 95%CI=1.040-1.088, P<0.001) and elevated uric acid (OR=1.002, 95%CI=1.000-1.004, P=0.027) were risk factors. Log-rank test results showed that the average survival time without endpoint events was shorter in the diuretic resistance group (χ2=11.866, P=0.001) and in patients not using Qi Li Qiang Xin Jiao Nang (χ2=6.502, P=0.011). Multivariable Cox regression analysis revealed that the use of Qi Li Qiang Xin Jiao Nang (HR=0.536, 95%CI=0.308-0.933, P=0.027) and angiotensin receptor enkephalase inhibitors/angiotensin converting enzyme inhibitors/angiotensin receptor blockers (HR=0.435, 95%CI=0.229-0.826, P=0.011) were protective factors against endpoint events, while increased total bilirubin (HR=1.019, 95%CI=1.008-1.030, P=0.001) and total bile acids (HR=1.029, 95%CI=1.002-1.058, P=0.036) were risk factors.

Conclusion

The use of Qi Li Qiang Xin Jiao Nang in addition to standard HF treatment can reduce the risk of diuretic resistance in patients with ADCHF and decrease the risk of rehospitalization due to cardiovascular events or all-cause mortality within one year.

摘要:

背景

利尿剂抵抗与心力衰竭(HF)患者的病死率增加有关。芪苈强心胶囊是用于治疗HF的中药。目前缺乏其在改善利尿剂抵抗方面作用的临床证据。

目的

探讨芪苈强心胶囊能否降低慢性HF急性失代偿(ADCHF)患者发生利尿剂抵抗的风险并改善其预后。

方法

纳入2018年1月—2022年6月在天津大学胸科医院CICU病区住院治疗的HF患者374例为研究对象,根据是否发生利尿剂抵抗将患者分为利尿剂抵抗组(118例)和非利尿剂抵抗组(256例)。收集患者的一般资料和实验室检查结果等。对患者随访12个月,观察因心血管事件再住院或全因死亡情况。绘制各组患者的Kaplan-Meyer生存曲线,生存曲线比较采用Log-rank检验。采用多因素Logistic回归分析探究患者发生利尿剂抵抗风险的影响因素。采用多因素Cox回归分析探究ADCHF患者发生终点事件的影响因素。

结果

利尿剂抵抗组年龄、体质量、N末端前体脑利钠肽(NT-proBNP)、血尿素氮、血肌酐、血尿酸、国际标准化比值(INR)高于非利尿剂抵抗组,24 h液体摄入量、估算肾小球滤过率(eGFR)、淋巴细胞绝对值、芪苈强心胶囊使用率低于非利尿剂抵抗组。多因素Logistic回归分析结果显示,使用芪苈强心胶囊(OR=0.363,95%CI=0.186~0.708,P=0.003)、24 h液体摄入量升高(OR=0.286,95%CI=0.177~0.461,P<0.001)是ADCHF患者发生利尿剂抵抗风险的保护因素。体质量增加(OR=1.064,95%CI=1.040~1.088,P<0.001)、血尿酸增高(OR=1.002,95%CI=1.000~1.004,P=0.027)是患者发生利尿剂抵抗风险的危险因素。Log-rank检验结果显示,利尿剂抵抗组无终点事件平均生存时间短于非利尿剂抵抗组(χ2=11.866,P=0.001);未使用芪苈强心胶囊患者无终点事件平均生存时间短于使用芪苈强心胶囊患者(χ2=6.502,P=0.011)。多因素Cox回归分析结果显示,使用芪苈强心胶囊(HR=0.536,95%CI=0.308~0.933,P=0.027)和使用血管紧张素受体脑啡肽酶抑制剂/血管紧张素转化酶抑制剂/血管紧张素受体阻滞剂(HR=0.435,95%CI=0.229~0.826,P=0.011)是患者发生终点事件的保护因素,总胆红素升高(HR=1.019,95%CI=1.008~1.030,P=0.001)、总胆汁酸升高(HR=1.029,95%CI=1.002~1.058,P=0.036)是患者发生终点事件的危险因素。

结论

在常规抗HF治疗的基础上使用芪苈强心胶囊可以降低ADCHF患者发生利尿剂抵抗的风险,同时降低这类患者1年内因心血管事件再住院或全因死亡的风险。
