心-踝血管指数与颈动脉内膜中膜厚度在动脉硬化评价中的诊断效度比较

目的通过对新近开发应用的动脉硬化度测定指标——心-踝血管指数与已用于临床多年的颈动脉内膜中膜厚度两种非侵袭性测定方法的各自优势与不足的比较,获得各自的诊断效度,从而向临床医师提供依据,以求在今后的动脉硬化度评价中能够更为客观地反映临床实际。方法对受检的同时具备有心-踝血管指数和颈动脉内膜中膜厚度检查报告的连续病人183例,各自左右侧测定值的差异度进行了比较。按相差百分比的不同进行区段划分,求出各自区段内所出现的频数,由此比较不同相差百分比区段时各自出现的频度百分比。在30例连续的无动脉硬化危险因素和动脉硬化疾病的人群及42例冠状动脉狭窄和47例已患脑梗死的患者人群中,分别进行心-踝血管指数和颈动脉内膜中膜厚度各自特异度和敏感度的比较。并作出各自的ROC曲线,比较各自的曲线下面积。结果心-踝血管指数测定值左右两侧差异度在5%和10%以内的出现频度分别为86.7%和99.1%,而颈动脉内膜中膜厚度测定值其两侧浮动幅度在10%以内的人数仅占24.6%,浮动度>20%而≤30%之间者占66.6%,甚至有8.8%的受检个体其两侧测定值的差异度超过了30%。即两侧测定值的不一致程度内膜中膜厚度要远远大于心-踝血管指数测定...

The Comparisons Between Cardio-Ankle Vascular Index and Intima-Media Thickness for the Validity of Diagnosis in Arteriosclerosis Evaluation

Aim Cardio-ankle vascular index(CAVI) was newly developed index of arterial wall stiffness.To compare the validity of both diagnostic technique CAVI and carotid intima-media thickness(IMT) which was known to reflect cervical arterial atherosclerosis,both indices were measured in patients with coronary stenosis and cerevral infarction and non-atherosclerosis diseases.Methods Between January and June 2006,a total of 183(55~70 years old) consecutive subjects were measured with CAVI and IMT.The percentage of di...
