ABSTRACT
Objective@#To investigate the upper limit of the normal value of arsenic in healthy adult population in different areas of Guangxi.@*Methods@#From 2015 to 2016, 1533 subjects from 14 counties and cities in Guangxi were collected by age, gender, stratified random sampling and questionnaire survey. 1417 urine samples with satisfactory urine quality and complete information were collected.The content of arsenic in urine was determined by atomic fluorescence spectrometry.@*Results@#The upper limit of normal arsenic in healthy adults in guangxi was 0.053 mg/L. Male urinary arsenicP50(0.011mg/L)was higher than that of the female(0.008mg/L), the difference was statistically significant(Z=5.352,P<0.01). Smoking urinary arsenicP50(0.012mg/L) was higher than that of nonsmokers(0.009mg/L), the difference was statistically significant(Z=3.404,P<0.01). GroupP50 urine arsenic in coastal areas(0.012mg/L) the crowd was higher than that in non coastal areas(0.009mg/L), the difference was statistically significant(Z=-7.522,P<0.01).@*Conclusion@#The upper limit of normal arsenic in healthy adults in Guangxi area is 0.053mg/L,and there are differences in the levels of arsenic in healthy adults, such as different genders and regions.
ABSTRACT
Objective: To explore the relationship between serum levels of immunoglobulin E (IgE) and calciifc aortic valve disease (CAVD) in relevant patients. Methods: A total of 394 patients were enrolled in our study. Based on echocardiography presentation, the patients were divided into 2 groups: CAVD group,n=169 and Non-CAVD group,n=225. Serum levels of IgE were examined by chemiluminescence method. The IgE levels were compared between 2 groups and the relationship between serum IgE level and CAVD was analyzed. Results: Serum levels of IgE in CAVD group was significantly higher than Non-CAVD group 113.30 IU/ml vs 63.76 IU/ml (P Conclusion: Serum IgE level is obviously increased in CAVD patients. IgE is an independent biochemical indicator of CAVD, it may play the important role in CAVD pathogenesis.
