老年女性高血压患者颈动脉硬化与血尿酸水平关系探讨

目的　探讨老年女性高血压患者颈总动脉平均内膜中层厚度 (IMT)和血尿酸水平的相关性。　方法　测定 89例老年女性高血压患者颈总动脉平均IMT、尿酸和空腹血糖、甘油三酯 (TG)水平 ,按颈总动脉平均IMT将患者分为内膜正常组、内膜增厚组、斑块形成组、管腔狭窄组 ,比较各组间尿酸水平。对颈总动脉内膜异常患者 ,采用多元回归分析 ,统计颈总动脉IMT和尿酸、空腹血糖、TG之间的关系。　结果　内膜正常组、内膜增厚组、斑块形成组、管腔狭窄组血尿酸水平依次为(2 76± 5 0 )、(313± 4 4 )、(36 5± 4 7)、(42 7± 5 2 ) μmol/l,4组间比较差异有统计学意义 (均为P <0 0 1)。动脉硬化组中颈总动脉IMT与尿酸、TG呈正相关 (R =0 6 4 32 ,均为P <0 0 1)。　结论　老年女性高血压患者颈总动脉平均IMT与尿酸呈正相关 ,提示老年女性患者血尿酸水平可协助诊断冠心病。

The study on the relationship between carotid atherosclerosis and the level of serum uric acid in elderly women with hypertension

Objective To observe the relationship between the intima media thickness(IMT) and the level of serum uric acid in elderly female patients with hypertension Methods Eighty elderly female patients with hypertension were measured for carotid artery average IMT and the level of serum uric acid They were divided into the normal group, intima thicking group ,the plaque shaping group and the vascular stenosis group. In the abnormal groups, probable risk factors were analysed by multiple stepwise regression Results There were significantly differentces among these groups ( P <0 01). Each group was significantly differentce from another group ( P <0 01). In the abnormal groups, there was independent relationship of common carotid artery(CCA) IMT with the level of serum uric acid and TG Conclusions The average CCA IMT is correlated with the the level of serum uric acid in elderly female patients with hypertension It shows that the level of serum uric acid may be used as a reference index for the prediction of coronary artery disease
