高血压和冠心病患者头发中的微量元素

目的：了解高血压和冠心病患者头发微量元素水平。方法：选择45名高血压患者、36名冠心病患者和40名健康人以火焰原子吸收法测定头发中微量元素锌（Zn),铜（Cu),锰（Mn)和铁（Fe)含量,结果：高血压和冠心病患者头发Zn含量和Zn/Cu比值显著高于健康对照（P＜0．001）,Cu,Mn和Fe含量显著低于健康对照（P＜0．05）,结论：头发高Zn低Mn,低Fe和低Cu是高血压和冠心病患者特征之一。

Investigation on Trace Elements in Hair of Patients With Hypertension Disease and Coronary Heart Disease

ve To understand the levels of trace elements in hair of patients with hypertension disease and coronary heart disease. Methods The contents of zinc, copper, manganese and iron in hair were determined among 45 patients with hypertension disease, 36 patients with coronary heart disease and 40 healthy controls by flame-atomic absorption spectrophotometry respectively. Results The contents of zinc and the ratio of the contents of zinc vs the contents of copper in hair of patient with hypertension disease and coronary heart disease showed significantly higher levels compared with those of healthy controls (P< 0.001) . The contents of copper, manganese and iron in hair of patients showed significantly lower levels compared with those of healthy controls (P<0.05) . Conclusion Lower levels of manganese, iron and copper, and higher levels of zinc of hair were the characteristics of patients with hy-pertension disease and coronary heart disease.
