老年环与脑动脉硬化症关系的探讨

Study of Relationship Between Arcus Senilis and Cerebal Atherosclerosis

观察142例脑动脉硬化症患者的老年环与血清胆固醇、甘油三酯和磷酯水平间的关系,并以70例正常人为对照。结果发现,疾病组老年环明显高于对照组,老年环的大小与血清甘油三酯水平的升高有关,与胆固醇和磷酯水平无关。认为老年环可作为脑动脉硬化症诊断的辅助指标之一。

Authors compared the relationship between size of arcus senilis and level of serum total cholesteral (TC), triglyceride (TG) and phospholipid (PL) in 141 cases of cereebral atherosclerosis with 70 cases of normal individuals. It was found that size of arcus senilis in illness group was obviously higher than that in control group (p<0.01), and was related to level of TG but not to that of TC and PL. The authors suggest that arcus senilis may be considered as one of the supplementary criterion in diagnosis of cerebral atherosclerosis.
