Study of the relationship between carotid intima-media thickness and traditional Chinese medicine syndrome of dyslipidemia
摘要
The study aimed to explore the relationship between the carotid intima-media thickness (IMT)
lipids
high-sensitivity C-reactive protein (hs-CRP)
homocysteine (Hcy) and other indices of laboratory and the traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) syndrome of dyslipidemia. A total of 152 dyslipidemia patients and 8 healthy people (taken as the control group) were recruited. According to the theory of the TCM syndrome
152 dyslipidemia patients were assigned to 4 groups: the stagnation of phlegm (SP) group
the blood stasis blocking channels (BSBC) group
the stagnation of phlegm and blood (SPB) group and the non-stagnation of phlegm and blood (NSPB) group. The carotid ultrasonic test
hs-CRP
Hcy
blood rheology and blood lipids were examined for all the recruited patients. The relationships among carotid IMT
laboratory indices and TCM syndrome of dyslipidemia were analyzed by the methods of F test and multiple linear regressions. (1) Carotid IMT was significantly different among groups of healthy people and different TCM syndromes. The sequence from lowest to highest was: healthy group
NSPB group
SP group
SPB group and BSBC group. (2) Triglyceride (TG) and blood rheology were significantly different between the groups of healthy people and different TCM syndromes. Among different TCM syndrome groups
TG and blood rheology in the NSPB group were the lowest
but were the highest in SPB group. (3) Hcy
very low density lipoprotein and TG were correlated with atherosclerosis of the carotid. Carotid IMT
TG and blood rheology were closely correlated with the TCM syndrome of dyslipidemia. Atherosclerosis of the carotids would be prone to occur if one of these factors was heightened.
