Abstract  Objective: The purpose of this study is to examine the expression of serum high-sensitivity C-reactive protein (hs-CRP) and lipoprotein-associated phospholipase A2 (Lp-PLA2) in patients with arrhythmia and its significance. Methods: We selected 136 arrhythmia patients (observation group) who were treated at our hospital from February 2016 to March 2018. Among these patients, 50 had premature ventricular contractions, 42 had atrial fibrillation, 24 had atrial flutter, and 20 had ventricular tachycardia. Simultaneously, we selected 120 healthy volunteers as the control group. We measured serum levels of hs-CRP and Lp-PLA2 in these subjects. Results: The levels of Lp-PLA2 and hs-CRP of the observation group were 210.06±30.46 pg/mL and 13.54±3.16, respectively, which were significantly higher than those of the control group (P<0.05). The serum levels of Lp-PLA2 and hs-CRP of patients with atrial flutter were 260.87±32.24 and 19.84±5.10 pg/mL, respectively, which were significantly higher than those of patients with premature ventricular contractions, atrial fibrillation, and ventricular tachycardia (P<0.05). Serum levels of Lp-PLA2 and hs-CRP were positively correlated (r=0.413, P<0.05). Conclusion: Serum levels of hs-CRP and Lp-PLA2 in arrhythmia patients were significantly elevated and showed some association with the type of arrhythmia.
