Serum macrophage inflammatory protein-lαand high-sensitivity C-reactive protein levels in the paitents with obstructive sleep apnea-hypopnea syndrome and hypertension

Objectives To identify the effects of obstructive sleep apnea-hypopnea syndromemacrophage inflammatory protein -1α(MIP-1α) and high-sensitivity c-reactive protein(hs-CRP) levels,and its impact on cardiac structure and function in patients with hypertension.(OSAHS) on serum. Methods We studied 86 middle-aged subjects classified into four groups according to the absence or presence of OSAHS with and without hypertension.(1)OSAHS patients without hypertension(OSAHS group,n=29);(2)OSAHS patients with hypertension(OSAHS +HT group,n=27);(3) non-OSAHS patients with hypertension(HT group,n =27);(4)volunteers without OSAHS and hypertension(Control subjects, n=27).OSAHS patients were divided into mild,moderate and severe degree based on apnea hypopnea index(AHI).All participants underwent polysomnography and echocardiography. Serum MIP-1αand hs-CRP levels were tested by enzyme linked immunosorbent assay(ELISA).Results Body mass index(BMI),neck collar(NC),waist-to-hip ratio(WHR) in OSAHS group and OSAHS +HT group were significantly higher than those in Control group(PP【0.05).Serum MIP- 1αlevels in OSAHS+HT group was significant higher than HT groups(P【0.05).Serum MlP-1αlevels in those three groups were negative correlationwith AV(r=-0.238,P=0.08) and positively correlated with E/A ratio(r=0.307,P=0.02). Conclusions We have not foundthe cardiac systolic function change in early OSAHS patients with hypertension,while the diastolic function decreased obviously.Serum MIP-1αlevel shows earlier change than hs-CRP level in OSAHS patients which may contribute to the lesion of cardiac diastolic function.
