摘要
Background Numerous trials showed that blood pressure variability （BPV） plays an important role in triggering acute cardiovascular and cerebrovascular events. However, few studies have clarified the relationship between the coronary artery atherosclerosis severity with BVP and ankle-brachial index （ABI）. There are few studies in which have investigated BPV, ankle-brachial index （ABI）, brachial ankle pulse wave velelocity （baPWV） and severity of coronary angiography（ CAG ） at the same time. Methods Totally 188 hypertensive patients from January 2012 to March 2015 were enrolled in this study. All the cases underwent 24h ambulatory blood pressure monitoring （ABPM）, CAG and ABI. The extent of coronary artery disease was assessed by the Gensini score system. The subjects were divided into four groups： A（ Gensini score=0）, B（Gensini score≤20）, C（ 20〈Gensini score 〈50）, D（Gensini score≥50）. Pearson correlation and stepwise multiple regression were used for analyses. Results Compared with the A and B group, most of blood pressure standard deviation and average ABI of D group were higher （P 〈 0.05）. Correlation analysis indicated that Gensini score was positively correlated with 24h systolic blood pressure standard deviation （24hsbpsd）, day systolic blood pressure standard deviation （dsbpsd） and night systolic blood pressure standard deviation（nsbpsd）; But it was reversely correlated with ABI. ABI was reversely correlated with 24hsbpsd and nsbpsd. Gensini score was positively correlated with 24hsbpsd（P=0.02） and dsbpsd（P〈0.05）, while reversely correlated with ABI（P〈0.05） by multiple linear stepwise regression analysis. Conclusion BPV and ABI are closely related to severity of coronary artery atherosclerosis. They are predictors in patients with coronary artery disease with hypertension.
