Changes of plasma ox-LDL and endothelium-dependent vasodilation in patients with acute coronary syndrome / 中国实用内科杂志

ABSTRACT

Objective To explore the relationship of the plasma ox-LDL level and endothelium flow mediated vasodilation(FMD)in acute coronary syndrome patients(ACS).Methods From March to October 2004,in the Department of Cardiology,the Fourth PLA Hospital,51 patients with ACS were divided into 2 groupsAMI group(22patients)and UAP group(29 patients).20 subjects with normal coronary angiograms served as the control group.Nitrir oxide(NO)and plasma ox-LDL was measured by spectrophotometer and Sandwich ELISE method,respectively.The brachial arterial hyperemia-induced flow mediated vasodilation(FMD)and sublingual nitroglycerin(NTG)mediated vasodilation were measured by high resolution ultrasound.Results (1)The FMD in ACS group was significantly decreased compared with the control group[(7.2?1.42)、(7.6?1.12)vs(15.46?1.2),P0.05).(2)The No in ACS group was sigificantly lower than that in control group;the NO in AMI group was even lower[(48.46?12.44)、(60.42?10.30)vs(94.72?12.34)?mol/L,P1,which meant ox-LDL was a risk factor;the OR of FMD was
