    AbstractThe value of serum carbohydrate antigen 125 (CA125) combined with N-terminal pro-B-type natriuretic peptide (NT-proBNP) in the evaluation of acute heart failure (AHF) after ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) remains unclear. The aim of this study was to evaluate the efficacy of CA125 combined with NT-proBNP in predicting AHF following STEMI. A total of 233 patients with STEMI were evaluated, including 39 patients with Killip II-IV and 194 patients with Killip I. The optimal cutoff point for predicting AHF was determined by receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve, and the independent predictors of AHF were evaluated by multiple logistic regression. According to the cutoff value, it was divided into three groups: C1 = CA125 < 13.20 and NT-proBNP < 2300 (n = 138); C2 = CA125 ≥ 13.20 or NT-proBNP ≥ 2300 (n = 59); C3 = CA125 ≥ 13.20 and NT-proBNP ≥ 2300 (n = 36). Differences between groups were compared by odds ratio (OR). The levels of CA125 and NT-proBNP in AHF group were higher than those in non-AHF group (19.90 vs 10.00, P < .001; 2980.00 vs 1029.50, P < .001, respectively). The optimal cutoff values of CA125 and NT-proBNP for predicting AHF were 13.20 and 2300, both of which were independent predictors of AHF. The incidence of AHF during hospitalization was highest in C3 (69.44%), middle in C2 (20.34%) and lowest in C1 (1.45%). After adjustment for clinical confounding variables, compared with C1: C2 (OR = 6.41, 95% CI: 1.22-33.84, P = .029), C3 (OR = 19.27, 95% CI: 3.12-118.92, P = .001). Elevated CA125 and NT-proBNP are independent predictors of AHF in STEMI patients, and their combination can improve the recognition efficiency.Copyright © 2022 the Author(s).
