ABSTRACT
Objective To investigate the levels and the abnormal incidences of apolipoprotein and other related indicators in health people in Hunan province,and to provide data for establishment of reference intervals in Hunan province.Methods The people with physical examination (n =341) were chosen from the Second Xiangya Hospital of Central South University during August 2014 ～ October 2014 (male,n =239;female,n =102) with age from 22 to 77 years old.All people were divided into 4 groups according to their age:group A aged from 22 to 42 (35.56 ± 5.39),group B aged from 43 to 48 (45.59 ± 1.59),group C aged from 49 to 55 (51.19 ± 1.81),and group D aged from 56 to 77 (63.08 ±5.84).The levels of apoAI,apoB,Lp (a),hypersensitive C-reactive protein (hs-CRP),and homocysteine (HCY) were detected with automatic biochemical analyzer,and were compared among different age groups and between male and female in each age group.Results Compared to male,the average levels of apoAI,and Lp (a) were significantly increased (P ＜0.05),and apoB,hs-CRP,and Hcy were significantly decreased (P ＜ 0.05) in the female.The levels of apoB,and hs-CRP were significantly different among 4 age groups (P ＜ 0.05).The abnormal rate in each index among 4 age groups was not significantly different (P ＞ 0.05).For groups A,B and D,the abnormal rate of Hcy was significant higher in male relative to female (P ＜ 0.05).Conclusions All the indices have significant difference between male and female (P ＜0.05).The levels of apoAI,Lp (a),hs-CRP,and Hcy do not change with the changed age.However,apoB has a certain relationship with age.The level and abnormal rate of Hcy are significantly higher in male relative to female.
