RÉSUMÉ
Objective To observe the correlation between platelet parameters , platelet activation marker and carotid intima-media thickness (CIMT) in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus. Methods One hundred and ninety-five type 2 diabetic patients were enrolled in this study. The patients were divided into the normal control group, the CIMT increased group and the clot group according to the carotid intima-media thickness. Levels of platelet count (PLT), mean platelet volume (MPV), platelet distribution width (PDW), platelet hematocrit(PCT), urinary 11-dehydro-thromboxane B2 (11-DH-TXB2) and other clinical, biochemical characteristics were measured. Results (1) Levels of serum LDL-C, MPV, PDW, urinary 11-DH-TXB2 and clinical course in the clot group were higher than those in the CIMT increased group and the normal control group (P < 0.05). (2) Compared with the normal control group, the clinical course, serum LDL-C, MPV, PDW and urinary 11-DH-TXB2 were higher in the CIMT increased group (P < 0.05). (3) By using with spearman rank correlation test, carotid intima-media thickness was positively associated with age , course , BMI , GLU , GHbA1C , LDL-C , MPV , PDW and urinary 11-DH-TXB2, whereas carotid intima-media thickness was negative associated with HDL-C, PLT (both P < 0.05). (4) MPV, PDW and urinary11-DH-TXB2 were shown as the independent risk factors for CIMT. Conclusions Platelet activation marker and platelet parameters are associated with carotid intima-media thickness in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus.
RÉSUMÉ
Objective To investigate the reasonable time limit for stopping the aspirin treatment in preoperative pa-tients with general surgery and the effects on platelet function in postoperative patients with recovering the therapy of aspirin. Methods A total of 121 patients undergoing elective general surgery were divided into stopping aspirin treatment 5 d group (n=59) and stopping aspirin treatment 7 d group (n=62). Fifty healthy volunteers were used as the control group. The arachi-donic acid (AA)-induced platelet aggregation test was used to detect the platelet agglutination rate in all groups. Aspirin was reused 24~48 h after surgery. The level of urinary 11-dehydro-thromboxane B2 (11-DH-TXB2) was assayed by ELISA 7 and 10 d after retreatment. Results The levels of the PAgT (5 min, 8 min and 10 min) were decreased significantly in pa-tients with stopping aspirin treatment 5 d group compared with those of patients with stopping aspirin treatment 7 d group and control group (P0.05). Conclusion The platelet aggregative function returned to normal level in patients with 7-d preoperative stopping aspirin. The laboratory moni-toring of aspirin therapy should be more than 7 d after postoperative reusing aspirin.
