RESUMO
Objective:To investigate the improving effect of simvastatin on the related indices of hyperlipidemia Patients at the early stage in Talimu oil field, and analyze the correlation between the pulse wave velocity ( PWV) and the other indicators. Methods:Totally 59 patients with hyperlipidemia in Talimu oil field hospital received simvastatin for 6 months. The systolic and diastolic blood pressure, high-sensitivity C-reactive protein (hs-CRP), total cholesterol (TC), high-density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL-C), low-density lipoprotein cholesterol ( LDL-C) , PWV and ankle-brachial index ( ABI) were assessed before and after the treatment. Moreo-ver, the correlation between PWV with the other factors were analyzed by a multiple linear regression method. Results: After the six-month treatment, the systolic and diastolic blood pressure showed no significant change;TC and LDL-C were significantly decreased ( P<0. 05), while HDL-C was increased. PWV was significantly decreased, and ABI was improved significantly (P<0. 05). The chan-ges in PWV were correlated with age and hs-CRP(P<0. 05 or P<0. 01). Conclusion:Simvastatin can significantly improve the relat-ed indices in the patients with hyperlipidemia, reduce PWV, increase ABI and decrease serum hs-CRP level. The determination of PWV and hs-CRP can predict the degree of atherosclerosis better, which plays an important role in the prevention of cardiovascular dis-eases.
RESUMO
Objective:To study the relationship among brachial ankle pulse wave velocity (baPWV ) ,level of high sensitive C reactive protein (hsCRP ) and blood glucose level in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM ) . Methods :A total of 102 T2DM patients and 60 healthy people undergoing physical examination (normal control group) were selected .According to level of glycosylated hemoglobin (HbA1c) ,T2DM patients were divided into normal HbA1c group (n=44 ,HbA1c≤6. 5% ) and HbA1c elevating group (n=58 ,HbA1c>6. 5% ) .BaPWV ,lev‐els of blood lipids ,blood glucose and hsCRP were measured and compared among above groups .Results:Compared with normal control group ,there were significant rise in hsCRP level [(1.82 ± 0.2) mg/L vs . (2.7 ± 0.1) mg/L vs . (3.5 ± 0.1) mg/L] and baPWV [ (1412 ± 95) cm/s vs . (1755 ± 72) cm/s vs . (2040 ± 105) cm/s] in normal HbA1c group and HbA1c elevating group (P<0.01 all) ,and hsCRP level and baPWV of HbA1c elevating group were sig‐nificantly higher than those of normal HbA1c group ,P<0.05 both .Conclusion:Brachial ankle pulse wave velocity and level of hsCRP of patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus are significantly higher than those of normal subjects , and those of patients with poor blood glucose control are significantly higher than those of patients with good blood glucose control .Active blood glucose control can delay atherosclerosis progress .
