Umbilical cord blood troponin I, myoglobin and CK-MB in neonatal hypoxic ischemic encephalopathy and the clinical significance.

Associations of serum S-100β, cystatin C (Cys-C) and C-reactive protein (CRP) with umbilical cord blood troponin I (TnI), myoglobin (Mb) and creatine kinase-MB (CK-MB) in neonatal hypoxic ischemic encephalopathy (NHIE) and the clinical significance were explored. A total of 40 patients with NHIE treated in the Binzhou Medical University Hospital were selected as observation group, while another 40 healthy neonates in the same period were selected as control group. The related data of all subjects were collected, and the levels of serum S-100β protein, CRP and Cys-C, and umbilical cord blood TnI, Mb and CK-MB were compared between the two groups. Associations of the neonatal behavioral neurological assessment (NBNA) score with the changes in serum S-100β protein, CRP and Cys-C and umbilical cord blood TnI, Mb and CK-MB were analyzed. The univariate and multivariate logistic regression analyses were performed to determine the risk factors for NHIE. In observation group, the levels of serum S-100β protein, CRP and Cys-C were significantly higher than those in control group, and the levels of umbilical cord blood TnI, Mb and CK-MB were also significantly higher than those in control group. The NBNA score was negatively correlated with the changes in serum S-100β protein, CRP and Cys-C as well as the umbilical cord blood TnI, Mb and CK-MB. The levels of serum S-100β protein, CRP and Cys-C, and umbilical cord blood TnI, Mb and CK-MB were related risk factors for NHIE. The increased levels of serum S-100β protein, CRP and Cys-C, and umbilical cord blood TnI, Mb and CK-MB were independent risk factors for NHIE. In NHIE patients, the levels of serum S-100β protein, CRP and Cys-C, and umbilical cord blood TnI, Mb and CK-MB all significantly increased, and they have negative correlation with the nervous system function after onset.
