The accumulative survival rate of the health management group (96. 7% ) was higher than the control group (83.6%; x2 =5. 921 ,P =0. 015) ,similar to the pharmacologic therapy group (93.3%; x2 =2. 821,P=0.091 ). Decreased systolic blood pressure, diastolic blood pressure, pulse pressure and baPWV were protective factors. After adjusted by age and gender,the improvement of systolic blood pressure was found to be an independent protective factors ( RR = 0. 75, P ＜ 0. 05 ). Conclusion Health management in elderly patients with hypertension could more significantly reduce the risk of cardiovascular diseases.

Brachial-ankle pulse wave velocity is a predictor of recurrent cardiovascular events in elderly male patients with acute coronary syndrome / 中华老年医学杂志

Objective To explore whether brachial-ankle pulse wave velocity (baPWV) can be used as a predictor of recurrent cardiovascular events in elderly male patients with acute coronary syndrome (ACS). Methods The baPWV and biochemical indicators were measured in 118 elderly men with ACS, aged 61-92 years (mean age 76.6±6.7 years). During the follow-up period (617±297 days), all cardiovascular events (unstable angina, heart failure, cardiac death and stroke, etc.)were recorded. Results The baPWV was (17.48±3.54)m/s in non-event group(n=90),(21.91±4.86) m/s in event group and (24.48±4.39) m/s in major endpoint event group, respectively (both P＜0. 05). There were 30 cardiovascular events that occurred in 28 patients, including 12 major endpoint events. The receiver operating characteristic curve demonstrated that the cut-off point of baPWV for predicting a cardiovascular event was 19.51 m/s and that for predicting a major endpoint event was 20.52m/s. The multivariate Cox proportional hazards model demonstrated that the above cut-off points had significantly relative risk for cardiovascular event: 1.37(95% CI: 1.16-1.63)and for major event:1.71(95% CI: 1.23-2.36). Conclusions The baPWV can be used as a predictor of recurrent cardiovascular events in elderly men with ACS.

Objective To investigate the concentration changes of vascular endothelial growth factor(VEGF), nitric oxide(NO) and endothelin (ET) in elderly patients with obstructive sleep apnea syndrome (OSAS) combined with eerebrovascular disease.Methods One hundred and thirty-two subjects were divided into four groups: OSAS with cerebrovaseular disease group (OC group), OSAS without cerebrovascular disease group (O group), cerebrovascular disease without OSAS group (C group) and normal control group (N group).The concentrations of VEGF, NO and ET in the plasma were compared in each subgroup.Results The concentration of VEGF was significantly increased in OC group and O group compared with C group and N group[(195.34±56.7)ng/L, (162.34±48.7)ng/L, (156.4 4±51.8) ng/L, (114.1 ± 54.2) ng/L, F= 21.02, P< 0.05].The concentration of NO was increased gradually in OC group, C group, O group and N group[(62.3±4.9)mmol/L,(64.7±5.1) mmol/L, (66.2± 4.2)retool/L, (77.5 ± 6.8) mmol/L, F= 17.35, P<0.05], and the concentration of ET was decreased gradually in OC group, C group, O group and N group[(59.8±9.6)ng/L, (56.5±4.3)ng/L, (54.7±7.9)ng/L, (37.2±8.5)ng/L, F= 4.27, P<0.05].Conclusions The concentrations of VEGF and ET are increased and the concentration of NO is decreased in patients with OSAS.Patients with OSAS combined with cerebrovascular disease have higher VEGF and ET concentrations and lower NO concentration than in patients with simple OSAS.The results indicate that vascular endothelial dysfunction may play an important role in the development of cerebrovascular disease in patients with OSAS.

Study of the Relationship between Left Ventricular Mass and Arterial Stiffness in Aged Patients with Diabetes Mellitus / 天津医药

Objective: To evaluate the relationship between the change of left ventricular mass and arterial stiffness in the aged patients with diabetes mellitus. Methods: The pulse wave velocity (PWV) and left ventricular mass index(LVMI)were used to estimate the left ventricular mass and arterial stiffness. The relationship between LVMI and PWV and other influencing factors were evaluated with univariate analysis and stepwise regressive analysis in 105 patients with diabetes mellitus. The value of PWV was compared in the subjects of the left ventricular hypertrophy and the non- left ventricular hypertrophy groups. Results: LVMI was positively correlated with PWV, systolic blood pressure, pulse pressure,medical history and body mass index (the values of r were 0.821, 0.792, 0.799, 0.664 and 0.241 respectively,P ＜ 0.01 or P ＜ 0.05). A stepwise regression analysis was used to assess the combined influence of variables on left ventricular hypertrophy. The model included the following variables: PWV, systolic blood pressure and diabetes mellitus medical history. PWV value was significantly higher in patients with left ventricular hypertrophy than that of the patients without left ventricular hypertrophy(t = 9.109,P < 0.01). Conclusion: The increased arterial stiffness is one of the important factors which lead to the increased left ventricular mass index in aged patients with diabetes mellitus.
