ABSTRACT
Objective To detect serum leucine aminopeptidase (LAP) level in the patients with hyperthyroidism for investiga‐ting the changes of LAP in the patients with thyroid dysfunction and its clinical significance .Methods 117 patients with hyperthy‐roidism were taken as the test group and 109 healthy people as the control group .The differences of various laboratory indexes were comparatively analyzed and the correlation between LAP with FT 3 ,FT4 and TSH was analyzed .117 patients with hyperthyroidism were divided into the liver damage group(52 cases) and non‐liver damage group(65 cases) and performed the LAP determination . Results The serum LAP ,FT3 ,FT4 and TSH levels in the hyperthyroidism whole group ,hyperthyroidism liver damage group and hyperthyroidism non‐liver damage group had statistically significant differences compared with those in the control group (P0 .05) .Conclusion The serum LAP content is closely related with the thyroid hormones and has certain clinical reference value for the diagnosis ,disease condition evaluation and medication .Lap can serve as an independent diagnostic indicator .
ABSTRACT
Objective To observe the change of homocysteine(Hcy)and lipoprotein-a[Lp(a)]of cerebral infarction patients and perform the correlation analysis on them.Methods The serum Hcy and Lp(a)levels were detected in 230 patients with cerebral in-farction and 90 healthy controls.The detection results were performed the comparison between the groups and the correlation analy-sis.Results The serum Hcy and Lp(a)levels in the overall cerebral infarction group and the cerebral infarction group with in-creased Hcy were significantly higher than those in the healthy controls(P 0.05).The serum Hcy and Lp(a)levels in the overall cerebral infarction group had no statistical difference compared with the cerebral infarc-tion group with increased Hcy(P >0.05).The serum Hcy and Lp(a)levels in the overall cerebral infarction group and the cerebral infarction group with increased Hcy had statistical difference compared with the cerebral infarction group without increased Hcy (P <0.01).The serum Hcy in the overall cerebral infarction group is positively correlated with Lp(a)(r =0.859,P <0.01).Con-clusion The increase of serum Hcy and Lp(a)levels is closely related with the occurrence of cerebral infarction and has certain val-ue in the diagnosis of cerebral infarction,moreover serum Hcy is positively correlated with Lp(a).
