Study on the Relationship of Carotid Intimal-Medial Wall Thickness and the Expression of IL-6 and Fetuin-A in the Serum of Two Type Diabetes / 现代检验医学杂志

ABSTRACT

Objective To investigate the relationship of carotid intimal-medial wall thickness(IMT) and the expression of IL-6 and Fetuin-A in two type diabetes.Methods 80 patients with two type diabetes were chosen,and 60 cases healthypeople of examination for the control group.The levels of IL-6 and Fetuin-A were measured,and measured the intimal-medial thickness (IMT) of internal carotid artery by carotid duplex ultrasonography scanning simultaneously.Results The level of IL-6 was significantly higher in two type diabetes than those in control group,and the level of Fetuin-A was declind (t=8.34 ～15.65,all P＜0.05).IL-6 level in normal IMT (A group,20 cases) was 2.24±0.21 pg/L,Fetuin level was 5.41±0.32 ng/ ml.IL-6 level in abnormal IMT (B group,18 cases) was 3.44±0.18 mm,and Fetuin level was 3.86±0.42 ng/ml.Relatively,IL-6 level in IMT with plaque (C group,22 cases) was 4.95-±-0.31 ng/ml,Fetuin-A level was 2.41±0.32 ng/ml.IL-6 level in lumen narrow (D group,20 cases) was 5.35±0.31 ng/ml,and Fetuin-A level was 2.02 ± 0.08 ng/ml.There were obvious differences for four groups to detect IL-6 was Fetuin-A levels (F=8.69 ～ 11.02,all P＜ 0.05).The level of IL-6 were rised little by little from A group to D group.There were obvious differences for comparison among groups (t=5.32～9.01,all P＜0.05).The level of Fetuin-A were declined little by little from A group to D group,there were obvious differnce for comparison among groups (t=6.14～11.53,all P＜0.05).Conclusion There was a close correlation between IL-6,Fetuin-A level and carotid intimal-medial wall thickness(IMT) in two type diabetes.To detection IL-6 and Fetuin-A levels is a target to distinguish two type diabetes whether or not with atherosclerosis.
