Copeptin studies in populations with high MI prevalence
Study | MI prevalence | Troponin assay | Copeptin assay | NPVa | Comments |
---|---|---|---|---|---|
Afzali et al. [16•] | CPU population (single center). AMI 46.5 %(107/230), NSTEMI 36.1 % (83/230) | TnI-Ultra (Siemens Healthcare) cutoff <0.04 ng/ml (99th percentile) | Copeptin KRYPTOR (Thermo Fisher B·R·A·H·M·S) <14 pmol/l | 97.3 % | 13 % of patients with a GRACE score greater than 140. Onset of symptoms after more than 12 h in 37.8 % of patients |
Sukul et al. [17•] | Single-center study, setting not reported. AMI 25.7 % (104/405), NSTEMI 22.4 % (91/405) | Local cTnI (Centaur, Siemens Healthcare)cutoff 100 ng/l. Sensitive cTnI (TnI-Ultra, Siemens Healthcare) cutoff 40 ng/l (99th percentile) | Copeptin KRYPTOR (Thermo Fisher B·R·A·H·M·S) 14 pmol/l | cTnI alone 92 % (89-95 %), sensitive TnI alone 98 % (95-99 %), sensitive TnI plus copeptin 97 % (94-99 %) (for all AMI). In early presenters (<6 h), sensitive TnI 100 % (96-100 %), sensitive TnI plus copeptin 100 % (95-100 %) | No analysis of NSTEMI patients only |
Eggers et al. [18•] |
CPU population, NSTEMI 35.6 % (128/360) FAST II: 2000–2001 FASTER I: 2002-2003 |
hsTnT (Roche Diagnostics) 14 ng/l. NSTEMI diagnosis based on routine TnI result (Stratus CS, Siemens Healthcare) | Ultrasensitive copeptin KRYPTOR PLUS (Thermo Fisher B·R·A·H·M·S) >14 pmol/l | hsTnT alone 86.5 % (81.0-90.0 %),hsTnT plus copeptin 89 % (83.1-93.3 %) | Pooled population of patients included in the FAST II and FASTER I studies with available results for biomarkers, only NSTEMI and symptom onset <8 h |
