[The role of the superoxide dismutase for predicting long-term adverse events in patients with acute coronary syndrome.]

To study the relationship between the blood concentration of superoxide dismutase in at the end of the hospital period of acute coronary syndrome without ST-segment elevation (nonST-ACS) and the development of adverse events in the long-term follow-up period. 415 patients with nonST-ACS are included in the local register study. The follow-up period was 60 months. The blood concentration of superoxide dismutase (SOD) determined in 200 patients on the 10-13th day of hospitalization in addition to clinical procedures. Within five years after discharge in 178 (47 %) patients reported the development of adverse events. Patients with poor outcome were older, had a history of myocardial infarction (PICS), stenoses of extracranial arteries more than 30% and decreased left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF). There were significant differences in the concentration of SOD10-13 day, which was lower in the patients with development of adverse cardiovascular events (p = 0.0003). Multivariate analysis identified the factors that are most strongly associated with the development of the adverse events during a 5-year follow-up period in patients with nonST-ACS: SOD blood concentration ≤ 175,4 ng / ml (OR-3,85; р=0,0008), myocardial infarction in anamnesis (OR-3,26; р=0,006), LVEF ≤ 52% (OR-2,8; р=0,035). The incidence of adverse cardiovascular events during five years follow-up in patients with nonST-ACS was 47 % of cases. Adverse factors associated with the development of an unfavorable outcome in the long-term period follow are: SOD blood concentration ≤ 175,4 ng / ml, myocardial infarction in anamnesis, LVEF ≤ 52%.
