摘要
目的评价颈总动脉内膜-中层厚度(IMT)与冠心病的可能关系。方法共纳入72例患者,38例为冠心病、34例无冠心病,对所有患者进行颈动脉B超和超声心动图检查。结果冠心病患者颈动脉IMT与无冠心病组比较差异有统计学意义(P<0.05);与无左室肥厚患者相比,左室肥厚组颈动脉IMT差异有统计学意义(P<0.05)。结论IMT增厚预示心血管疾病的存在。
Objective The authors evaluated the possible association between increased IMT with the presence of CAD and the presence of LVH. Methods Th.is study included 72 patients,38 with CAD and 34 without CAD. All patients underwent B-mode ultrasound of the carotid arteries and echocardiography. Results The patients with CAD had significantly increased IMT compared to patients without CAD. Patients with LVH had significantly increased. IMT as compared with patients without LVH. Conclusion Increased IMT, as an indicator of subclinical cardiovascular disease,may help to identify patients who would bennfit from aggressive therapeutic measures.
