Abstract
OBJECTIVE The prognosis of aneurysmal subarachnoid hemorrhage (aSAH) survivors is concerning. The goal of this study was to investigate and demonstrate the relationship between the neutrophil-to-albumin ratio (NAR) and long-term mortality of aSAH survivors. METHODS A retrospective observational cohort study was conducted at Sichuan University West China Hospital between January 2009 and June 2019. The investigation of relationship between NAR and long-term mortality was conducted using univariable and multivariable Cox regression models. To demonstrate the predictive performance of different biomarkers over time, time-dependent receiver operating characteristic curve (ROC) analysis and decision curve analysis (DCA) were created. RESULTS In total, 3173 aSAH patients were included in this study. There was a strong and continuous relationship between NAR levels and long-term mortality (HR 3.23 95% CI 2.75-3.79, p < 0.001). After adjustment, the result was still significant (adjusted HR 1.78 95% CI 1.49-2.12). Compared with patients with the lowest quartile (< 0.15) of NAR levels, the risk of long-term mortality in the other groups was higher (0.15-0.20: adjusted HR 1.30 95% CI 0.97-1.73; 0.20-0.28: adjusted HR 1.37 95% CI 1.03-1.82; >0.28: adjusted HR 1.74 95% CI 1.30-2.32). Results in survivors were found to be still robust. Moreover, out of all the inflammatory markers studied, NAR demonstrated the highest correlation with long-term mortality. CONCLUSIONS A high level of NAR was associated with increased long-term mortality among patients with aSAH. NAR was a promising inflammatory marker for long-term mortality of aSAH.

Abstract
Poor outcomes of aneurysmal subarachnoid hemorrhage (aSAH) can be the result of the initial catastrophic event or the many acute or delayed neurological complications. Recent evidence suggests that some molecules play a critical role in both events, through some unknown pathways involved. Understanding the role of these molecules in these events could allow to improve diagnostic accuracy, guide management, and prevent long-term disability in aSAH. Here we present the studies on aSAH biomarkers present in current medical literature, highlighting their roles and main results.

Abstract
Arginine Vasopressin (AVP) is one of the key hormones in the human body. AVP is clinically important because it maintains body fluid balance and vascular tone. Unfortunately, AVP laboratory measurements are always difficult and with low accuracy. Copeptin, the C-terminal of the AVP precursor, is released in equal amounts with AVP, making it a sensitive marker of AVP release. Despite being a non-specific biomarker, copeptin earned a lot of attention as a novel biomarker due to easy and quick laboratory measurements. Recent studies have reported the critical role of copeptin as a clinical indicator, especially in the diagnosis and prognosis of many diseases. Besides, it was reported that the combination between copeptin and gold standard biomarkers improved the prognostic values of those biomarkers. In this review, the role of copeptin as a new predictive diagnostic and prognostic biomarker of various diseases is highlighted according to the most recent studies. In addition, the importance of using copeptin as a marker in different medical departments and the impact of this on improving healthcare service was discussed.

Abstract
As is shown in previous reports, arginine vasopressin (AVP), as one of the most important hormones within circulation in human beings, is of great clinically significance given that it could maintain the body fluid balance and vascular tone. However, the laboratory measurements AVP in daily clinical practice are shown to be difficult and with low accuracy. Concerning on this notion, it is unpractical to use the serum levels of AVP in diagnosing multiple diseases. On the other hand, another key serum biomarker, copeptin, is confirmed as the C-terminal of the AVP precursor which could be released in equal amounts with AVP, resultantly making it as a sensitive marker of arginine vasopressin release. Notably, emerging recent evidence has demonstrated the critical function of copeptin as a clinical indicator, especially in the diagnosis and prognosis of several diseases in diverse organs, such as cardiovascular disease, kidney disease, and pulmonary disease. In addition, copeptin was recently verified to play an important role in diagnosing multiple acute diseases when combined it with other gold standard serum biomarkers, indicating that copeptin could be recognized as a vital disease marker. Herein, in the current review, the functions of copeptin as a new predictive diagnostic and prognostic biomarker of various diseases, according to the most recent studies, are well summarized. Furthermore, the importance of using copeptin as a serum biomarker in diverse medical departments and the impact of this on improving healthcare service is also summarized in the current review.

Abstract
Predicting functional outcome following stroke is considered to be of key importance in an attempt to optimize overall stroke care. Although clinical prognostic tools have been widely implemented, optimal blood biomarkers might be able to yield additional information regarding each stroke survivor's propensity for recovery. Copeptin seems to have interesting prognostic potential poststroke. The present review aims to explore the prognostic significance of copeptin in stroke patients. Literature research of two databases (MEDLINE and Scopus) was conducted to trace all relevant studies published between 16 February 2012 and 16 February 2022 that focused on the utility of copeptin as a prognostic marker in acute stroke setting. 25 studies have been identified and included in the present review. The predictive ability of copeptin regarding both functional outcome and mortality appears to be in the range of established clinical variables, thus highlighting the added value of copeptin evaluation in stroke management. Apart from acute ischemic stroke, the discriminatory accuracy of the biomarker was also demonstrated among patients with transient ischemic attack, intracerebral hemorrhage, and subarachnoid hemorrhage. Overall, copeptin represents a powerful prognostic tool, the clinical implementation of which is expected to significantly facilitate the individualized management of stroke patients.

Abstract
High-sensitivity troponin assay brought new challenges as we detect elevated concentration in many other diseases, and it became difficult to distinguish the real cause of this elevation. In this notion, diagnosis of acute coronary syndrome (ACS) remains a challenge in emergency department (ED). We aim to examine different approaches for rule-in and rule-out of ACS using risk scores, copeptin, and coronary computed tomography angiography (CCTA). A prospective observational study was designed to evaluate chest pain patients. Consecutive adult patients admitted to the ED with a chief complaint of chest pain due to any cause were included. All patients were followed-up for 6 months after discharge for major adverse cardiovascular events and readmissions. Admission data, ED processes, and diagnoses were analyzed. One hundred forty-six patients were included, average age was 63 ± 13.4 years, and 95 (65.1%) were male. Global Registry of Acute Coronary Events (GRACE) and History, ECG, Age, Risk factors, Troponin (HEART) scores showed good prognostic abilities, but HEART combination with copeptin improves diagnoses of myocardial infarction (area under the curve [AUC] 0.764 vs AUC 0.864 P = .0008). Patients with elevated copeptin were older, had higher risk scores, and were more likely to be admitted to hospital and diagnosed with ACS in ED. For copeptin, AUC was 0.715 (95% confidence interval 0.629-0.803), and for combination with troponin, AUC of 0.770 (0.703-0.855) did not improve rule-in of myocardial infarction. High-sensitivity troponin I assay alongside prior stroke, history of carotid stenosis, dyslipidemia, use of diuretics, and electrocardiogram changes (left bundle branch block or ST depression) are good predictors of myocardial infarction (χ² = 52.29, AUC = 0.875 [0.813-0.937], P < .001). The regression analysis showed that combination of copeptin and CCTA without significant stenosis can be used for ACS rule-out (χ² = 26.36, P < .001, AUC = 0.772 [0.681-0.863], negative predictive value of 96.25%). For rule-in of ACS, practitioner should consider not only scores for risk stratification but carefully analyze medical history and nonspecific electrocardiogram changes and even with normal troponin results, we strongly suggest thorough evaluation in chest pain unit. For rule-out of ACS combination of copeptin and CCTA holds great potential.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Aneurysmal subarachnoid hemorrhage (aSAH) is an important indication for intensive care unit admission and may lead to significant morbidity and mortality. We assessed the ability of C-terminal proarginine vasopressin (CT-proAVP) to predict disease outcome, mortality, and delayed cerebral ischemia (DCI) in critically ill patients with aSAH compared with the World Federation of Neurological Surgeons (WFNS) score and Acute Physiological and Chronic Health Evaluation IV (APACHE IV) model. METHODS C-terminal proarginine vasopressin was collected on admission in this single-center, prospective, observational cohort study. The primary aim was to investigate the relationship between CT-proAVP and poor functional outcome at 1 year (Glasgow Outcome Scale score 1-3) in a multivariable logistic regression model adjusted for WFNS and APACHE IV scores. Secondary aims were mortality and DCI. The multivariable logistic regression model for DCI was also adjusted for the modified Fisher scale. RESULTS In 100 patients, the median CT-proAVP level was 24.9 pmol/L (interquartile range 11.5-53.8); 45 patients had a poor 1-year functional outcome, 19 patients died within 30 days, 25 patients died within 1 year, and DCI occurred in 28 patients. Receiver operating characteristics curves revealed high accuracy for CT-proAVP to identify patients with poor 1-year functional outcome (area under the curve [AUC] 0.84, 95% confidence interval [CI] 0.77-0.92, p < 0.001), 30-day mortality (AUC 0.84, 95% CI 0.76-0.93, p < 0.001), and 1-year mortality (AUC 0.79, 95% CI 0.69-0.89, p < 0.001). CT-proAVP had a low AUC for identifying patients with DCI (AUC 0.67, 95% CI 0.55-0.79, p 0.008). CT-proAVP ≥ 24.9 pmo/L proved to be a significant predictor for poor 1-year functional outcome (odds ratio [OR] 8.04, 95% CI 2.97-21.75, p < 0.001), and CT-proAVP ≥ 29.1 pmol/L and ≥ 27.7 pmol/L were significant predictors for 30-day and 1-year mortality (OR 9.31, 95% CI 1.55-56.07, p 0.015 and OR 5.15, 95% CI 1.48-17.93, p 0.010) in multivariable models with WFNS and APACHE IV scores. CT-proAVP ≥ 29.5 pmol/L was not a significant predictor for DCI in a multivariable model adjusted for the modified Fisher scale (p = 0.061). CONCLUSIONS C-terminal proarginine vasopressin was able to predict poor functional outcome and mortality in critically ill patients with aSAH. Its prognostic ability to predict DCI was low.

Abstract
Vasopressin (AVP) and copeptin are released in equimolar amounts from the same precursor. Due to its molecular stability and countless advantages as compared with AVP, copeptin perfectly mirrors AVP presence and has progressively emerged as a reliable marker of vasopressinergic activation in response to osmotic and hemodynamic stimuli in clinical practice. Moreover, evidence highlighting the prognostic potential of copeptin in several acute diseases, where the activation of the AVP system is primarily linked to stress, as well as in psychologically stressful conditions, has progressively emerged. Furthermore, organic stressors induce a rise in copeptin levels which, although non-specific, is unrelated to plasma osmolality but proportional to their magnitude: suggesting disease severity, copeptin proved to be a reliable prognostic biomarker in acute conditions, such as sepsis, early post-surgical period, cardiovascular, cerebrovascular or pulmonary diseases, and even in critical settings. Evidence on this topic will be briefly discussed in this article.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE The predictive roles of copeptin and insulin-like growth factor-1 (IGF-1) in aneurysmal subarachnoid hemorrhage (aSAH) remain controversial. We aimed to define the relationship between copeptin and IGF-1 levels and functional outcome as well as quality of life (QoL) after aSAH. METHODS Patients with aSAH were prospectively enrolled in a tertiary university hospital. Controls were sex- and age-matched healthy subjects. Plasma concentrations of copeptin and IGF-1 were measured on admission. Demographics and clinical, radiological and laboratory characteristics of the patients were collected. Favorable functional outcome was defined as modified Rankins≤2, and QoL was evaluated by the 36-Item Short Form Health Survey (SF-36) 1 year after aSAH. Uni- and multivariable analyses were performed. RESULTS One hundred eighteen patients were eligible, with 122 healthy controls were included in this study. Plasma copeptin levels were significantly higher and plasma IGF-1 was lower in patients than in controls. Both copeptin (adjusted HR 4.143 [1.120-15.328], p = 0.033) and IGF-1 levels (adjusted HR 0.089 [0.013-0.602], p = 0.013) were positively associated with 1-year mortality, while only single copeptin and IGF-1 concentrations were independent predictors of poor functional outcome and QoL, respectively. CONCLUSIONS Plasma copeptin and IGF-1 levels are abnormal in patients with acute aSAH, and this may reliably predict long-term mortality, functional outcome and QoL.

Abstract
The prognostic value of copeptin in subarachnoid hemorrhage (SAH) has been reported, but the prognosis was largely affected by the initial clinical severity. Thus, the previous studies are not very useful in predicting delayed cerebral ischemia (DCI) in poor-grade SAH patients. Here, we first investigated the feasibility of predicting DCI in poor-grade SAH based on consecutive measurements of plasma copeptin. We measured copeptin levels of 86 patients on days 1, 3, 5, 7, 9, 11, and 13 using ELISA. The primary outcome was the association between consecutive copeptin levels and DCI development. The secondary outcomes were comparison of copeptin with C-reactive protein (CRP) in predicting DCI. Additionally, we compared the prognostic value of transcranial Doppler ultrasonography (TCD) with copeptin using TCD alone to predict DCI. Increased copeptin (OR = 1.022, 95% CI: 1.008–1.037) and modified Fisher scale IV (OR = 2.841; 95% CI: 0.998–8.084) were closely related to DCI. Consecutive plasma copeptin measurements showed significant differences between DCI and non-DCI groups (p < 0.001). Higher CRP and DCI appeared to show a correlation, but it was not statistically significant. Analysis of copeptin changes with TCD appeared to predict DCI better than TCD alone with AUCROC differences of 0.072. Consecutive measurements of plasma copeptin levels facilitate the screening of DCI in poor-grade SAH patients.

Abstract
Copeptin is a hypothalamic stress hormone that is synthesized in the hypothalamus together with Arginine-vasopressin and circulated from the neurohypophysis in equimolar amounts and can indicate the individual stress level. The aim of this study was to investigate the plasma copeptin level for childhood migraine headache. In this study, total oxidant status (TOS); total antioxidant status (TAS); oxidative stress index (OSI); and copeptin were measured in the plasma samples of 61 migraine patients and 60 matched healthy participants. The median plasma copeptin levels in the patients group and control group were 298.25 and 194.35 pg/mL, respectively. Copeptin levels were significantly higher in migraine patients than in the healthy control group. The specificity and sensitivity of copeptin for 249.5 pg/dL cut off value predicting diagnosis of migraine were 67% and 64%, respectively. In addition, TOS and OSI levels were found to be higher and TAS levels were significantly lower in patients with migraine than healthy controls. Plasma copeptin levels are thought to increase in cases of childhood migraine secondary to increased oxidative stress. In the diagnosis of childhood migraine cases, it can be used together with oxidative stress biomarkers such as TAS, TOS and OSI as a complementary parameter.

Abstract
AbstractIntroduction:Early and accurate prediction of survival to hospital discharge following resuscitation after cardiac arrest (CA) is a major challenge. Biomarkers can be used for early and accurate prediction of survival and prognosis following resuscitation after CA, but none of those identified so far are sufficient by themselves.Hypothesis/Problem:The goal of this study was to investigate the predictive power of the serum copeptin level for determining the return of spontaneous circulation (ROSC) and prognosis of patients with non-traumatic out-of-hospital cardiac arrest (OHCA) who underwent cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR).Methods:A total of 76 consecutive consenting adult patients who were diagnosed as non-traumatic OHCA and 63 age- and sex-matched healthy controls were enrolled. The patients were divided into two groups based on whether or not they had ROSC. The ROSC group was divided into two sub-groups according to whether death occurred within 24 hours or after 24 hours following ROSC. Serum copeptin, high-sensitivity cardiac troponin (hs-cTnI), creatine kinase-muscle/brain (CK-MB), glucose, and blood gas values were compared between the groups.Results:Serum copeptin levels were significantly higher in the patient group than control group (P <.001). Receiving operator characteristic analysis revealed a cut-off copeptin level of 27.29pmol/L, with 98.7% sensitivity and 100.0% specificity, for distinguishing patients from controls. Serum copeptin levels were significantly lower in the ROSC group than non-ROSC group (P = .018). Additionally, the mean serum hs-cTnI level was significantly higher in the ROSC group than non-ROSC group (P = .032). However, there were no significant differences in the mean serum glucose level and CK-MB levels or arterial blood gas levels between the ROSC and non-ROSC groups (all P >.05).Ten (38.5%) of the patients died within the first 24 hours after ROSC, whereas 16 (61.5%) survived longer than 24 hours. Serum copeptin levels were significantly lower in patients who survived longer than 24 hours compared with those who died within the first 24 hours. Moreover, the mean CPR duration was significantly lower in patients surviving more than 24 hours compared with less than 24 hours.Conclusion:The serum copeptin level may serve as a guide in diagnostic decision making to predict ROSC in patients undergoing CPR and determining the short-term prognosis of patients with ROSC.
