ABSTRACT

Objective:

To understand the relationship between the disease condition of patients with coal-burning-borne endemic arsenic poisoning (abbreviated as coal-burning-borne arsenic poisoning) and serum lipid metabolism indicators.

Methods:

Using a case-control study method, in the coal-burning-borne arsenic poisoning village of Yuzhang Town, Qianxinan Prefecture, Guizhou Province, 204 patients with arsenic poisoning diagnosed according to the standard of "Diagnosis of Endemic Arsenicosis" (WS/T 211-2015) were included in case group, including 87 males and 117 females, aged(53.37 ± 8.06) years old; and they were divided into mild arsenic poisoning group (71 cases), moderate arsenic poisoning group (59 cases) and severe arsenic poisoning group (74 cases) according to the clinical grading. Another 63 residents were selected into control group in a non-arsenic-exposed village about 12 km away from the diseased village, including 23 males and 40 females, aged (53.78 ± 9.10) years old. A face-to-face questionnaire survey was conducted for each group of people, including basic information such as general demographic characteristics, smoking status, and drinking status; fasting peripheral blood was collected, and an automatic biochemical analyzer was used to detect serum total cholesterol (TC) and triglyceride (TG), low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C), and high-density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL-C) levels.

Results:

There were significant differences of serum TC [(4.94 ± 1.00), (5.00 ± 0.99), (5.27 ± 0.94), (5.57 ± 1.07) mmol/L], TG [(2.17 ± 0.90), (2.25 ± 1.31), (2.66 ± 1.43), (2.78 ± 1.40) mmol/L], LDL-C [(2.51 ± 0.79), (2.74 ± 0.64), (2.97 ± 0.66), (3.15 ± 0.80) mmol/L], and HDL-C levels [(1.57 ± 0.55), (1.42 ± 0.43), (1.36 ± 0.42), (1.30 ± 0.38) mmol/L] in control group, mild, moderate and severe arsenic poisoning groups ( F = 5.83, 3.64, 9.72, 4.41, P < 0.01 or < 0.05). Among them, the serum TC level in severe arsenic poisoning group, serum TG and LDL-C levels in moderate and severe arsenic poisoning groups were significantly higher than those in control group ( P < 0.05); the serum HDL-C level in moderate and severe arsenic poisoning groups were lower than that in control group ( P < 0.05); the serum TC, TG and LDL-C levels in severe arsenic poisoning group were significantly higher than those in mild arsenic poisoning group ( P < 0.05). After linear trend test, serum TC, TG and LDL-C levels all showed an upward trend with the degree of arsenic poisoning ( Ftrend = 15.77, 10.14, 29.15, P < 0.05), and serum HDL-C level showed a downward trend with the degree of arsenic poisoning ( Ftrend = 12.75, P < 0.05). There were significant differences in the abnormal rates of serum TC, TG and LDL-C levels among control group and mild, moderate and severe arsenic poisoning groups (χ 2 = 21.16, 16.60, 8.29, P < 0.01 or < 0.05). Among them, the serum TC and TG levels abnormal rates in moderate and severe arsenic poisoning groups and serum LDL-C level abnormal rate in severe arsenic poisoning group were higher than those in control group ( P < 0.05), the serum TC, TG and LDL-C levels abnormal rates in severe arsenic poisoning group were higher than those in mild arsenic poisoning group ( P < 0.05). There was no significant difference of the serum HDL-C level abnormal rate among four groups (χ 2 = 2.11 , P > 0.05). The results of trend chisquare analysis showed that the abnormal rates of serum TC, TG and LDL-C levels presented an increasing trend with the degree of arsenic poisoning (χ 2trend = 19.90, 15.25, 7.63, P<0.05). The results of logistic regression analysis showed that the risk of abnormal serum TC level in patients with severe arsenic poisoning was 2.90 times that in control group [odds ratio ( OR) = 2.90, 95% confidence interval ( CI) 1.43 - 5.91], and the risk of abnormal serum LDL-C level in patients with severe arsenic poisoning was 2.87 times that in control group ( OR = 2.87, 95% CI 1.22 - 6.71).

Conclusion:

There is a correlation between the disease condition of patients with coal-burning-borne arsenic poisoning and their dyslipidemia.
