Background: Soluble ST2 is a marker of biomechanical strain for which the natural ligand is interleukin 33 (IL-33). They have not been studied together in non-ST-elevation myocardial infarction (NSTEMI). We investigated their relationship with death, heart failure (HF) readmission, and reinfarction combined (termed major adverse cardiac events [MACE]) and, separately, in unselected patients using Global Registry of Acute Coronary Events Risk Scoring (GRACE-RS) and n terminal pro B type natriuretic peptide (NT-proBNP) as benchmark comparators. Methods: ST2 and IL-33 were measured in 577 patients 3 to 5 days after admission. Mean follow-up was 532 (150-1059) days, during which 156 patients (27%) reached the primary end point. Results: ST2 was higher in those who experienced MACE when compared with event-free survivors (median 782 pg/mL vs 596, P < .001), but there was no difference in IL-33 levels across any end point. Multivariate Cox regression analysis reveals that elevated ST2 is independently associated with increased risk of MACE during the long term (hazard ratio [HR] 2.01, P = .005). This relationship continues on further adjustment for either GRACE risk score or NT-proBNP individually but not on adjustment for both. ST2 also independently predicts reinfarction (HR 2.48, P = .03) and 30-day mortality (HR 4.43, P = .02, c-statistic 0.73, P < .001). Adding ST2 to GRACE or to NT-proBNP did not lead to significant improvements in the c-statistic for MACE for long-term follow-up (P = .27 and P = .57, respectively) or the net reclassification index. Neither IL-33 nor its ratio with ST2 was associated with study end points. Conclusions: Elevated ST2 predicts adverse outcome in non-ST-elevation myocardial infarction but does not significantly improve risk stratification for established markers. Interleukin 33 was not related to adverse events. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR] |
