Different Kinetics of Serum ADAMTS13, GDF-15, and Neutrophil Gelatinase-Associated Lipocalin in the Early Phase of Aneurysmal Subarachnoid Hemorrhage.

ABSTRACT: Growth differentiation factor 15 (GDF-15), neutrophil gelatinase-associated lipocalin (NGAL), and ADAMTS13 have previously been implicated in the pathophysiological processes of SAH. In the present study, we aim to examine their role in the early period of SAH and their relationship to primary and secondary outcomes. Serum samples were collected at five time periods after SAH (at 24 h (D1), at 72 h (D3), at 120 h (D5), at 168 h (D7) and at 216 h (D9), post-admission) and) were measured by using MILLIPLEX Map Human Cardiovascular Disease (CVD) Magnetic Bead Panel 2. We included 150 patients with SAH and 30 healthy controls. GDF-15 levels at D1 to D9 were significantly associated with a 3-month unfavorable outcome. Based on the ROC analysis, in patients with a good clinical grade at admission (WFNS I-III), the GDF-15 value measured at time point D3 predicted a 3-month unfavorable outcome (cut-off value: 3.97 ng/mL, AUC:0.833, 95%CI: 0.728-0.938, sensitivity:73.7%, specificity:82.6%, p < 0.001). Univariate binary logistic regression analysis showed that serum NGAL levels at D1-D5 and ADAMTS13 levels at D7-D9 were associated with MVS following SAH. GDF-15 is an early indicator of a poor 3-month functional outcome even in patients with mild clinical conditions at admission.
