Correlation among risk factors of coronary artery calcification and serum osteopontin level / 心血管康复医学杂志

ABSTRACT

Objective: To explore independent risk factors of coronary artery calcification (CAC) and analyze correlation among risk factors of CAC and serum osteopontin (OPN) level. Methods: According to results of 64-slice spiral computed tomography (MSCT) coronary angiography, a total of 65 patients were continuously enrolled and divided into CAC group (n=37) and non-CAC control group (n=28). Enzyme linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) was used to measure serum level of OPN. Single factor and multiple factor Logistic regression analysis’s were used to analyze risk factors of CAC. Spearman’s straight line analysis was used to analyze correlation between risk factors of CAC and serum OPN. Results: 1、 The age, hypertension, diabetes, poor eating habits，lack of exercise, overweight, etc., which were independent risk factors of CAC （OR=3.47～12.96, P=0.018～0.003）by single factor Logistic regression analysis, were inducted to multiple factor Logistic regression analysis, its result showed that age, overweight, poor sleep quality, poor eating habits were independent risk factors of CAC, OR=35.31～5.17, P＜0.01～0.05; 2、Serum level of OPN in CAC group was significant higher than that of non-CAC control group ［(39.919±11.879) μg /L vs. (24.000±6.000) μg /L，P<0.01］; 3、The Spearman straight line correlation analysis indicated that serum level of OPN was correlated with risk factors of CAC positively correlated with LDL-C, overweight, age, TC（r=0.487～0.286,P＜0.001～＜0.05）, and positively correlated with poor sleep quality, diabetes, poor eating habits, lack of exercise（r=4.10～2.24， P<0.01～0.05）; negatively correlated with HDL-C（r=-0.250,P＜0.05）. Conclusion: Correlation analysis indicates that age, overweight, poor sleep quality, poor eating habits etc. are independent risk factors of CAC；Serum OPN level is correlated with LDL-C, overweight，age, diabetes, lack of exercise etc., so these indicate that must decrease OPN level and risk factors of CAC to relieve CAC and slow down its development.
