摘要
In order to explore clinical relationship between Lipoprotein(a) and elderly diabetes, the level of plasma Lp(a) in 78 elderly patients with diabetes mellitus and 60 healthy controls was assayed. The results showed that there was significant difference in the percentage of high Lp(a) level between diabetis and healthy subjects (P<0.01); that the percentages of high Lp(a) level with fasting Lp(a)200 mg/L, 300 mg/L in complication group were all significantly higher than those in noncomplication group (P<0.02); that there was significant difference in the percentage of high Lp(a) level with fasting and postprandial 2 hours Lp(a)200 mg/L in 30 patients without complication, the former was also significantly higher as compared with controls. These suggested that fasting blood sample was better for measurement of plasma Lp(a) level, and that fasting plasma Lp(a)200 mg/L might be useful for diabetes epidemiological investigation; that there was high plasma Lp(a) level in diabetics, especially in diabet
