Real world analysis of traditional cardiovascular risk factors in 6040 patients with suspected coronary heart disease undergoing angiography / 中国介入心脏病学杂志

ABSTRACT

Objective To analyze the real world status of traditional known cardiovascular risk factors in patients with coronary heart disease ( CHD ) .Methods 6040 in-hospital patients with CHD or suspected CHD undergoing angiography from 01/01/2013 to 02/28/2015 were retrospectively analyzed . According to angiography result , patients with severe coronary artery lesion and undergoing percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) were enrolled in the PCI group (n=2808) and patients without severe coronary artery lesion and not undergoing PCI or CABG were enrolled in the No-PCI/CABG group (n=3232).Patients in the PCI group were further divided into 3 subgroups which were STEMI group , NSTEMI/UA group and stable angina (SA) group.Results (1) Compared with the No-PCI/CABG group, patients in the PCI group have higher ratio of male patients (75.4% vs.53.1%, P<0.0001), older average age (64.83 ±0.20 vs. 63.39 ±0.18 years old , P <0.0001 ) , and higher existing rates of traditional risk factors including hypertension (66.7%vs.54.7%, P<0.0001 ) , diabetes/impaired glucose tolerance ( IGT ) ( 37.0% vs. 20.8%, P<0.0001), stroke(7.0%vs.5.4%,P=0.0098)and chronic kidney disease (CKD) (4.3%vs. 2.8%, P=0.001 ) , but there was no statistic difference in existing rates of dyslipidemia between the two groups.(2)In the PCI group,female patients had higher prevalence of hypertension (74.1%vs.64.3%, P<0.001), diabetes/IGT (42.5%vs.35.3%, P=0.0007) and stroke (9.4%vs.6.2%, P=0.0054) than the male patients.There were no significant sex difference in these comorbidities as above in No-PCI/CABG group.Female patients had higher prevalence of dyslipidemia than male patients in both PCI and No -PCI/CABG groups.(3) Among all the 3 PCI subgroups, STEMI patients presented with youngest average age (62.54 ±0.45 vs.65.15 ±0.28 vs.66.17 ±0.34 years old, P<0.0001) and highest male patient ratio (83.9%vs.72.9% vs.72.3%, P<0.0001).Patients in the SA subgroup had the highest prevalence of hypertension and prior revascularization including PCI and CABG .Patients in the NSTEMI/UA subgroup had the highest rates of diabetes/IGT.No significant differences were observed in the prevalence of dyslipidemia , CKD and stroke among all the subgroups .Conclusions Hypertension and diabetes are the leading risk factors of coronary artery disease , and prior revascularization is also an important cause of stable angina and NSTEMI /UA undergoing PCI.Patients requiring PCI were found to be more of male gendor , but female patients has higher prevalence of traditional cardiovascular risk factors including hypertension , diabetes/IGT or stroke than male patients.
