Association of high-sensitivity C-reactive protein with risk factors of cerebral infarction in patients with type 2 diabetic mellitus / 中国基层医药

ABSTRACT

Objective To examine the serum high-sensitivity C-reactive protein(hs-CRP)levels in subjects with type 2 diabetic mellitus(DM)or DM accompanied by cerebral infarction(DM+CI),and the relationship be- tween the serum high-sensitivity C-reactive protein(hs-CRP)levels,and to investigate risk factors of cerebral infarc- tion in patients with type 2 diabetic mellitus.Methods The serum high-sensitivity C-reactive protein(hs-CRP)lev- els were measured in 50 DM patients,50 DM+CI patients and 30 healthy controls by ultra-sensitive immunoassay. hs-CRP values and its relationship with cerebral infarction in patients with type 2 diabetic mellitus and other factors, such as age,BMI,TG,etc,were analyzed.Results Univariate analysis revealed significant differences in hs-CRP concentrations between controls[(0.73?0.46)mg/L]and subjects with DM[(2.26?1.38)mg/L],or subjects with DM+CI[(3.82?2.67)mg/L](P
