The Correlation Between Serum PRMT5 Level and Cardiac Ultrasound Indicators in Patients With Heart Failure
Sponsor: The University of Hong Kong-Shenzhen Hospital
Summary
Pathological cardiac hypertrophy is characterized by abnormal cardiomyocyte metabolism, reduced myocardial contractility, and dysregulated synthesis of myocardial contractile proteins. This pathological process leads to progressive impairment of cardiac function and ultimately progresses to heart failure. Previous studies have demonstrated that PRMT5 exerts a significant inhibitory effect on heart failure, yet its clinical significance in the context of heart failure remains undefined. In this study, we hypothesized that serum PRMT5 may serve as a biomarker to predict cardiac structural parameters and functional indices. Therefore, we aim to analyse the correlation between serum PRMT5 levels and the following parameters-LVPWs, LVPWd, LVIDs, LVIDd, IVSTs, IVSTd, EF, FS, LVMi and RWT on the first day when participants are enrolled in this study.
