Plaque character evaluated with different angina pectoris types by using gemstone spectral imaging coronary angiography / 中国医师杂志

ABSTRACT

Objective To investigate the clinical values of Gemstone Spectral Imaging coronary angiography with analysis of the relationship between plaque character and angina pectoris types.Methods Two hundred cases of hospitalized patients were collected from January 2015 to December 2016 in the Department of Cardiovascular Disease,Chenzhou City First People's Hospital,who were diagnosed as coronary heart disease.According to the clinical data,stable angina pectoris (SA) and unstable angina pectoris (UA),coronary CT scan was performed for each patient to evaluate the relationship between the nature of atherosclerotic plaques and the classification of angina pectoris.SPSS 19.0 software was used for statistical analysis.Results By analyzing the correlation between SA and UA,SA calcification plaque was accounted for 63.2％,soft plaque 17.4％,mixed plaque 19.4％;UA calcification plaque was accounted for 37.5％;Soft plaque was accounted for 42.3％;and mixed plate was accounted for 20.2％.The difference was statistically significant (P ＜ 0.05).In the SA group,all of the stenotic lesions were mainly calcified plaques.There was no significant difference in the degree of severe stenosis between the different plaques in the SA group (P ＞ 0.05).In UA group,soft plaques were the main lesion of mild and moderate stenosis of coronary artery,and calcified plaques were the main stenosis in severe stenosis.There were significant differences in the degree of coronary artery stenosis between different plaques in UA group (P ＜ O.05).Conclusions The 128-slice spiral CT can accurately evaluated the relationship between the nature of coronary plaque and the type of angina pectoris,which is of great value in the early warning and angina pectoris classification of high-risk patients with coronary heart disease.
