چکیده

Previous studies have demonstrated the role of ST2 in predicting hospitalization and mortality in heart failure, independent of natriuretic peptides and other clinical variables. 9-17 In 2011, the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) delared the Presage ST2 Assay (Critical Diagnostics, San Diego, California, USA), which is typically used in conjunction with clinical evaluation as an aid in assessing the prognosis of patients diagnosed with chronic heart failure. A recent study in Taiwan showed ST2 measurements offered a diagnostic benefit for hypertensive patients with stable heart failure and normal ejection fraction. 18

Prognostic Value of Soluble ST2 (sST2) Serum Levels in Infants and Children with Heart Failure Complicating Congenital Heart Disease

Background Heart failure (HF) in infants and children with congenital heart disease (CHD) is a crucial complication with different outcomes. Many biomarkers are used as prognostic indicators. Soluble ST2 (sST2) is one of these markers studied in adults with HF. We aimed to study the prognostic value of sST2 in CHD children with HF. Materials and Methods In current case-control study, thirty-six...

Identification of serum soluble ST2 receptor as a novel heart failure biomarker.

BACKGROUND Using genomic technology, we previously identified an interleukin-1 receptor family member, ST2, as a gene markedly induced by mechanical strain in cardiac myocytes. The soluble receptor form of ST2 is secreted and detectable in human serum. This study tested the hypothesis that soluble ST2 levels in the serum of patients with severe chronic heart failure are increased in patients wi...

Soluble ST2 Testing: A Promising Biomarker in the Management of Heart Failure

ST2 is a member of the interleukin-1 receptor family biomarker and circulating soluble ST2 concentrations are believed to reflect cardiovascular stress and fibrosis. Recent studies have demonstrated soluble ST2 to be a strong predictor of cardiovascular outcomes in both chronic and acute heart failure. It is a new biomarker that meets all required criteria for a useful biomarker. Of note, it ad...

Soluble ST2 Has a Prognostic Role in Patients With Suspected Sepsis

BACKGROUND Soluble suppression of tumorigenicity 2 (sST2) has emerged as a novel biomarker for heart failure, and serum sST2 concentrations could be increased in inflammatory diseases. We explored whether sST2 is related to cardiac dysfunction/failure and has a prognostic role in patients with suspected sepsis. METHODS In a total of 397 patients with suspected sepsis, sST2 concentrations were...

Prognostic value of soluble ST2 in the Valsartan Heart Failure Trial.

BACKGROUND Soluble ST2 (sST2), a biomarker related to inflammation, is associated with outcomes of patients with heart failure. In-depth analyses of the relationship among sST2, changes in sST2, and patient outcomes are reported. METHODS AND RESULTS sST2 was measured at baseline (n=1650), 4 months (n=1345), and 12 months (n=1094) in Valsartan Heart Failure Trial. Baseline sST2 averaged 28.7±1...
