Abstract

Objective: This meta-study aimed to assess the connection between soluble suppression of tumorigenicity 2 (sST2) and extended clinical outcomes in individuals diagnosed with acute myocardial infarction (AMI).

Methods: We systematically collected pertinent literature from PubMed, Embase and Web of Science. The primary effect measures employed in this research were the hazard ratio and 95% confidence intervals. The quality and publication bias of included studies were evaluated. Subgroup analysis was conducted to explore the diversity in study outcomes.

Results: This comprehensive meta-analysis ultimately encompassed thirteen studies, involving a total of 11,571 patients. Elevated levels of sST2 were identified as an adverse prognostic indicator, demonstrating a substantial association not only with overall mortality (combined HR 2.4, 95% CI 1.6-3.5, P < 0.01) but also with major adverse cardiovascular events (MACEs) (HR 2.5, 95% CI 1.5-4.2, P < 0.01). Subgroup analyses revealed that increased sST2 levels were linked to higher rates of all-cause mortality and MACEs in patients with ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI), non-ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction (NSTEMI), and other unselected subcategories of AMI.

Conclusion: Increased sST2 could predict the long-term prognosis in patients suffering from AMI.
