ABSTRACT
Objective To explore the related factors with plasma neuropeptide Y in 180 normal healthy people by stepwise regression analysis. Methods Right ventricular end-diastolic diameter(RVDD),inter-ventricular septum end-diastolic thickness(IVST),left ventricular end-diastolic diameter(LVDD),left ventricular posterior wall end-diastolic thickness(LVPWT),ejection fraction(EF),strole volume(SV),cardiac output(CO),cadiac output index(CI),stroke volume index(SI) and plasma neuropeptide Y were measured respectively by echocardiography and immunoradioassay in all subjects. In addition,we examined the height,weight,blood pressure,heart rate and subcutaneous fat thickness in every subjects. Results The plasma neuropeptide Y wasn't significant difference in different gender and age(P≥0.05). The plasma neuropeptide Y of healthy population was normal distribution and the 95% of confidence interval 70.27 to 190.61,and 99% of confidence interval was 51.23 to 209.65. Conclusion The EF,height,LVST,diastolic blood pressure,CO,SV and subcutaneous fat thickness were the major related-factors of neuropeptide Y in plasma. The EF and height were negatively correlated with plasma neuropeptide Y,and other five factors were postive correlated with it.
