Study on blood uric acid,lipid levels and perceived stress in Kazakh hypertensive patients / 重庆医学

ABSTRACT

Objective To study the relationship between Kazakh hypertensive patients with blood uric acid ,lipid levels and psy-chological factors .Methods 90 Kazak patients with hypertension in our hospital from January to August 2012 were randomly se-lected as the hypertension group and contemporaneous 171 non-hypertension patients as the healthy control group .Blood uric acid (UA) ,triglycerides(TG) ,total cholesterol(TC) ,low-density lipoprotein cholesterol(LDL-C) and high-density lipoprotein choles-terol(HDL-C) were detected and the perceived stress scale(PSS) was adopted to assess the mental status .Results The mean val-ues of TG ,TC ,HDL and LDL in males of the hypertension group and the mean values of UA ,TG and LDL in females of the hyper-tension group were significantly higher than those in the normal control group after adjusting age and BMI (P<0 .05);in the hyper-tension group ,UA was positively correlated with TC (r=0 .221 ,P<0 .05) .The level of perceived stress was positively correlated TC and LDL(r=0 .473 ,P<0 .05;r=0 .321 ,P<0 .05) and negatively correlated with TG and HDL (r= -0 .461 ,P<0 .05;r= -0 .412 ,P<0 .05) after adjusting age ,sex and BMI .Conclusion The blood lipid level in Kazakh hypertensive patients has certain correlation with the perceived stress .
