摘要
以正常人20例(对照组)和无左心室肥厚的原发性高血压患者20例(EH组)作为对照,观察高血压伴左心室肥厚组32例(LVH组)的血浆内皮素变化;对LVH组28例患者行卡托普利治疗,观察治疗前后血浆内皮素的变化,LVH组血浆内皮素含量(209.07±69.12pg/ml)明显高于EH组(161.21±41.52pg/ml)和对照组(134.61±34.88pg/ml)(P均<0.01),且血浆内皮素含量和LVH程度及血压水平呈正相关。卡托普利治疗后血浆内皮素含量明显降低(P<0.01)。本文结果表明内皮素可能参与高血压和高血压性LVH的发生。:P<0.01.vscontrol:△:P<0.05,△△:P<0.01,vsEHgroup.2血压水平与血浆ET含量的关系(Tab2)Tab2TherelationshipbetweenthelevelsofbloodpressureandtheplasmaETcontents:P<0.01.vscontrol;△:P<0.05.vsmildhypertensiongroup;△△:P<0.01,vsmoderatehypertensiongroup.EH和LVH组血浆E?
The plasma endothelin in 32 patients with hypertensive left ventricular hypertrophy (LVH group)were measured compared with normotensive subjects(n=20)and essential hypertensive patients without LVH(n=20)(EH group).Thethe changes in plasma endothelin before and after captopril treatment in LVH group(n=28)was also investigated.The results showed that the levels of plasma endothelin in LVH group were significantly higher than those in EH group(P<0.01)and normotensive subjects(P<0.01),with the levels of plasma endothelin being significantly higher in the patients with severe hypertension. A positive correlation between the plasma endothelin and blood pressure and the degrees of LVH was found.The levels of plasma endothelin were significantly decreased after captopril treatment. The results suggest that endothelin may play an important role in the pathogenesis of hypertension and hypertensive LVH.
