Method: From January 2022 to January 2023, 100 patients with poorly controlled blood sugar among those hospitalized with type 2 diabetes and coronary heart disease were selected. They were divided into an experimental group of 55 cases (combined with sitagliptin) and a control group of 45 cases (combined with insulin or glimepiride) based on dapagliflozin and metformin and followed up for 1 year. The rates of reaching blood sugar targets, heart function indicators, inflammatory factor results, and major adverse cardiovascular events were compared between the two groups. Results: After treatment, there was no statistical difference between the two groups in the 3-month, 6-month, and 12-month follow-up blood sugar indicators (FPG, 2hPG, HbA1c levels) and heart function indicators (NT-proBNP, LVEF, LVEDD) (P > 0.05). After 12 months of treatment, the levels of IL-6, CRP, and IL-8 in the observation group were lower than those in the control group, with a statistically significant difference (P 0.05). Conclusion: Combining sitagliptin with dapagliflozin and metformin in patients with coronary heart disease and type 2 diabetes who have poor blood sugar control can effectively manage blood sugar, reduce inflammation levels, and decrease the incidence of cardiac death, making it worthy of clinical application and promotion.展开更多

Methods 215 patients with CHD confirmed by coronary angiography were involved in this study. The patients were divided into two groups: 74 CHD patients with T2DM (mean age 64.7 ± 8.2 years, male/female 47/27), and 141 CHD pa- tients without T2DM ( mean age 66. 2 ±9. 2 years, male/female 100/41 ). The clinical features and the data from selective coronary angiographies were com- pared between type 2 diabetic and non - diabetic CHD patients. Results Compared to non - diabetic CHD patients, the patients with both CHD and T2DM suf- fered more from acute myocardial infarction, silent is- chemia and severe arrhythmias ( P < 0. 01, P < 0. 05 ) , and had higher serum triglycerides and apo - lipoprotein B, along with increased serum uric acid (P < 0. 01, P < 0.05), increased left ventricular end diastolic diameter ( P < 0. 01 ) , and decreased left ventricular ejection fraction ( P < 0. 001 ). Compared to non - diabetic CHD patients, the patients with both CHD and T2DM suffered more from triple vessel disease (P < 0. 01) , severe coronary artery stenosis, complete occlusions and diffuse lesions ( P < 0. 001). Conclusions Se- vere clinical manifestation, left ventricular dysfunction, diffuse or complicated lesions of coronary arteries weremore common in patients with both CHD and T2DM, it suggests that the type 2 diabetic CHD patients have poor prognosis.展开更多

Both oxidized LDL and tissue factor (TF) contributed to the development of prothrombofic state. The pre- sent study aims to explore the relationship between plasma level of PCSK9 and that of TF in patient with coronary artery disease (CAD). Methods From July 2013 to March 2014, we enrolled 197 consecutive patients who underwent coronary angiography because of suspected CAD at Beijing Anzhen Hospital in this study. All patients had no history of using lipid-lowering medication. Of these 197 patients (1B 1 male and 66 female, mean age 56.9 ± 11.8 years), 81 had angiographically diagnosed CAD. Clinical data were collected. Plasma PCSK9 and TF were measured using enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA). Levels of plasma PCSK9 and TF were compared and their correlation analyzed among different patient groups. Results Both plasma levels of PCSK9 (279.8 ± 60.4μg/L vs. 216.5 ± 45.3μg/L, P 〈 0.01) and TF (156.4 ± 26.6 μg/mL vs. 112.1 ± 38.3 μg/L, P 〈 0.01) were significantly higher in patients with CAD, as compared with those with- out CAD. Correlation analysis showed plasma level of PCSK9 was significantly correlated with that of TF in both patients with and without CAD. However, multivariate regression analysis after adjustment for age, gender, smoking, alcohol, hypertension and hyperlipidemia showed that only in CAD patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus, there was significant positive correlation between plasma levels of PCSK9 and TF (β = 0.353, P 〈 0.01). Coneluslons The plasma level of PCSK9 is independently and positively associated with that of TF in CAD patients with diabetes mellitus, but not in those without diabetes mellitus. Further study is needed to investigate the underlying mechanism.展开更多

Recently, an association of glutamine (Gln) or (type A)/arginine (Arg) or (type B) polymorphism at position 192 of PON1 gene has been suggested with coronary artery disease (CAD) among patients with diabetes mellitus (DM). However, conflicting results have also been reported. Objectives: To investigate the relationship between PON1 gene (Gln192-Arg) poly-morphism and the presence, extent and severity of CAD in type 2 DM. Methods: The study comprised 180 patients recruited from those undergoing coronary angiography for suspected CAD, who were divided according to the presence or absence of CAD and DM into 4 groups;Group I (n = 40 patients) nondiabetic subjects without CAD, Group II (n = 45 patients) diabetic patients without CAD, Group III (n = 47 patients) non diabetic patients with CAD and Group IV (n = 48 patients) diabetic patients with CAD. PON1 (Gln192-Arg) genotype was assessed using polymerase chain reaction (PCR) followed by AlwI digestion. Results: The frequency of Gln allele (Type A) was significantly higher in group I and group II compared to group III and group IV (62.5%, 60% vs 38.3%, 31.25% respectively, p 100 mg/dL [OR 4.31, CI (1.25 - 12.5), P < 0.001], high density lipoprotein (HDL) cholesterol <40 mg/dL [OR 5.11, CI (1.79 - 16.33), P < 0.001] and PON1 192 Arg allele [OR 4.62, CI (1.67 - 13.57), P < 0.001] were significantly independent predictors of CAD. Conclusion: Arg allele of PON1 192 gene polymorphism is an independent risk factor for CAD and it is associated not only with the presence of CAD but also with its extent and severity and its impact is clearly more pronounced in diabetic patients.展开更多

Decreased levels are associated with predicting CAD. Recent studies showed that bilirubin has inverse correlation with glycemic status. So in this we evaluated the role of Hepatobiliary function as a marker of predictor CAD in patient with T2DM. Total 100 subjects included 50 T2DM patients with CAD and 50 T2DM without CAD. All the subject venous blood was collected after overnight fasting for biochemical analysis. After the statistical analysis, the results showed significant difference between two groups as follows total bilirubin (0.32 ± 0.15;0.90 ± 032;p = 0.000), direct bilirubin, indirect bilirubibn, Total Protein, Albumin, ALT, AST, HbA1c. Our finding implies that decreased serum bilirubin increases the risk of CAD in patients with T2DM and it shows inverse correlation between HbA1c and bilirubin.展开更多

文摘Aim: To explore the safety and effectiveness of combining dapagliflozin and metformin with sitagliptin in patients with coronary heart disease and type 2 diabetes whose blood sugar control is below the standard. Method: From January 2022 to January 2023, 100 patients with poorly controlled blood sugar among those hospitalized with type 2 diabetes and coronary heart disease were selected. They were divided into an experimental group of 55 cases (combined with sitagliptin) and a control group of 45 cases (combined with insulin or glimepiride) based on dapagliflozin and metformin and followed up for 1 year. The rates of reaching blood sugar targets, heart function indicators, inflammatory factor results, and major adverse cardiovascular events were compared between the two groups. Results: After treatment, there was no statistical difference between the two groups in the 3-month, 6-month, and 12-month follow-up blood sugar indicators (FPG, 2hPG, HbA1c levels) and heart function indicators (NT-proBNP, LVEF, LVEDD) (P > 0.05). After 12 months of treatment, the levels of IL-6, CRP, and IL-8 in the observation group were lower than those in the control group, with a statistically significant difference (P 0.05). Conclusion: Combining sitagliptin with dapagliflozin and metformin in patients with coronary heart disease and type 2 diabetes who have poor blood sugar control can effectively manage blood sugar, reduce inflammation levels, and decrease the incidence of cardiac death, making it worthy of clinical application and promotion.
文摘Objective:To investigate the impact of combining liraglutide with metformin on the enhancement of pancreatic islet function in patients with type 2 diabetes and coronary heart disease.Methods:60 patients with type 2 diabetes and coronary heart disease admitted from February 2022 to August 2023 were selected as research subjects.They were randomly assigned to either control or treatment groups,with 30 patients in each.The control group received metformin alone,while the treatment group received liraglutide in combination with metformin.Various indicators,including blood sugar levels,pancreatic islet function,and cardiac function between the two groups were compared.Results:The results of FPG,2hPG,HbA1c,HOMA-IR,NT-proBNP,and LVEDD in the treatment group were lower than those in the control group,whereas the values of FINS,HOMA-β,E/A,and LVEF in the treatment group were higher than those in the control group(P<0.05).Conclusion:The use of liraglutide in combination with metformin significantly benefits patients with type 2 diabetes and coronary heart disease.It leads to improved pancreatic islet function,better blood sugar control,and enhanced cardiac function.This combination therapy is recommended for clinical adoption.
文摘BACKGROUND Sodium-dependent glucose transporter 2 inhibitors(SGLT2i)have shown efficacy in reducing heart failure(HF)burden in a very heterogeneous groups of patients,raising doubts about some contemporary assumptions of their mechanism of action.We previously published a prospective observational study that evaluated mechanisms of action of SGLT2i in patients with type 2 diabetes who were in HF stages A and B on dual hypoglycemic therapy.Two groups of patients were included in the study:the ones receiving SGLT2i as an add-on agent to metformin and the others on dipeptidyl peptidase-4 inhibitors as an add-on to metformin due to suboptimal glycemic control.AIM To evaluate the outcomes regarding natriuretic peptide,oxidative stress,inflammation,blood pressure,heart rate,cardiac function,and body weight.METHODS The study outcomes were examined by dividing each treatment arm into two subgroups according to baseline parameters of global longitudinal strain(GLS),N-terminal pro-brain natriuretic peptide,myeloperoxidase(MPO),high-sensitivity C-reactive protein(hsCRP),and systolic and diastolic blood pressure.To evaluate the possible predictors of observed changes in the SGLT2i arm during follow-up,a rise in stroke volume index,body mass index(BMI)decrease,and lack of heart rate increase,linear regression analysis was performed.RESULTS There was a greater reduction of MPO,hsCRP,GLS,and blood pressure in the groups with higher baseline values of mentioned parameters irrespective of the therapeutic arm after 6 months of follow-up.Significant independent predictors of heart rate decrease were a reduction in early mitral inflow velocity to early diastolic mitral annular velocity at the interventricular septal annulus ratio and BMI,while the predictor of stroke volume index increase was SGLT2i therapy itself.CONCLUSION SGLT2i affect body composition,reduce cardiac load,improve diastolic/systolic function,and attenuate the sympathetic response.Glycemic control contributes to the improvement of heart function,blood pressure control,oxidative stress,and reduction in inflammation.
文摘This editorial synthesizes insights from a series of studies examining the interplay between metabolic and oxidative stress biomarkers in cardiovascular disease(CVD),focusing particularly on type-2 diabetes mellitus(T2DM)and acute coronary syndrome(ACS).The central piece of this synthesis is a study that investigates the balance between oxidative stress and antioxidant systems in the body through the analysis of serum bilirubin andγ-glutamyltranspeptidase(γ-GGT)levels in T2DM patients with ACS.This study highlights serum bilirubin as a protective antioxidant factor,while elevatedγ-GGT levels indicate increased oxidative stress and correlate with major adverse cardiovascular events.Complementary to this,other research contributions revealγ-GGT’s role as a risk factor in ACS,its association with cardiovascular mortality in broader populations,and its link to metabolic syndrome,further elucidating the metabolic dysregulation in CVDs.The collective findings from these studies underscore the critical roles ofγ-GGT and serum bilirubin in cardiovascular health,especially in the context of T2DM and ACS.By providing a balanced view of the body’s oxidative and antioxidative mechanisms,these insights suggest potential pathways for targeted interventions and improved prognostic assessments in patients with T2DM and ACS.This synthesis not only corroborates the pivotal role ofγ-GGT in cardiovascular pathology but also introduces the protective potential of antioxidants like bilirubin,illuminating the complex interplay between T2DM and heart disease.These studies collectively underscore the critical roles of serum bilirubin andγ-GGT as biomarkers in cardiovascular health,particularly in T2DM and ACS contexts,offering insights into the body’s oxidative and antioxidative mechanisms.This synthesis of research supports the potential of these biomarkers in guiding therapeutic strategies and improving prognostic assessments for patients with T2DM and some CVD.
文摘We comment on an article by GrubićRotkvićet al published in the recent issue of the World Journal of Cardiology.We specifically focused on possible factors affecting the therapeutic effectiveness of sodium-dependent glucose transporter inhibitors(SGLT2i)in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus(T2DM)and their impact on comorbidities.SGLT2i inhibits SGLT2 in the proximal tubules of the kidneys,lowering blood glucose levels by inhibiting glucose reabsorption by the kidneys and causing excess glucose to be excreted in the urine.Previous studies have demonstrated a role of SGLT2i in cardiovascular function in patients with diabetes who take metformin but still have poor glycemic control.In addition,SGLT2i has been shown to be effective in anti-apoptosis,weight loss,and cardiovascular protection.Accordingly,it is feasible to treat patients with T2DM with cardiovascular or renal diseases using SGLT2i.
文摘BACKGROUND It is increasingly common to find patients affected by a combination of type 2 diabetes mellitus(T2DM)and coronary artery disease(CAD),and studies are able to correlate their relationships with available biological and clinical evidence.The aim of the current study was to apply association rule mining(ARM)to discover whether there are consistent patterns of clinical features relevant to these diseases.ARM leverages clinical and laboratory data to the meaningful patterns for diabetic CAD by harnessing the power help of data-driven algorithms to optimise the decision-making in patient care.AIM To reinforce the evidence of the T2DM-CAD interplay and demonstrate the ability of ARM to provide new insights into multivariate pattern discovery.METHODS This cross-sectional study was conducted at the Department of Biochemistry in a specialized tertiary care centre in Delhi,involving a total of 300 consented subjects categorized into three groups:CAD with diabetes,CAD without diabetes,and healthy controls,with 100 subjects in each group.The participants were enrolled from the Cardiology IPD&OPD for the sample collection.The study employed ARM technique to extract the meaningful patterns and relationships from the clinical data with its original value.RESULTS The clinical dataset comprised 35 attributes from enrolled subjects.The analysis produced rules with a maximum branching factor of 4 and a rule length of 5,necessitating a 1%probability increase for enhancement.Prominent patterns emerged,highlighting strong links between health indicators and diabetes likelihood,particularly elevated HbA1C and random blood sugar levels.The ARM technique identified individuals with a random blood sugar level>175 and HbA1C>6.6 are likely in the“CAD-with-diabetes”group,offering valuable insights into health indicators and influencing factors on disease outcomes.CONCLUSION The application of this method holds promise for healthcare practitioners to offer valuable insights for enhancing patient treatment targeting specific subtypes of CAD with diabetes.Implying artificial intelligence techniques with medical data,we have shown the potential for personalized healthcare and the development of user-friendly applications aimed at improving cardiovascular health outcomes for this high-risk population to optimise the decision-making in patient care.

文摘Objectives To study clini- cal and coronary angiographic findings in patients with both coronary heart diseases (CHD) and type 2 diabe- tes mellitus (T2DM). Methods 215 patients with CHD confirmed by coronary angiography were involved in this study. The patients were divided into two groups: 74 CHD patients with T2DM (mean age 64.7 ± 8.2 years, male/female 47/27), and 141 CHD pa- tients without T2DM ( mean age 66. 2 ±9. 2 years, male/female 100/41 ). The clinical features and the data from selective coronary angiographies were com- pared between type 2 diabetic and non - diabetic CHD patients. Results Compared to non - diabetic CHD patients, the patients with both CHD and T2DM suf- fered more from acute myocardial infarction, silent is- chemia and severe arrhythmias ( P < 0. 01, P < 0. 05 ) , and had higher serum triglycerides and apo - lipoprotein B, along with increased serum uric acid (P < 0. 01, P < 0.05), increased left ventricular end diastolic diameter ( P < 0. 01 ) , and decreased left ventricular ejection fraction ( P < 0. 001 ). Compared to non - diabetic CHD patients, the patients with both CHD and T2DM suffered more from triple vessel disease (P < 0. 01) , severe coronary artery stenosis, complete occlusions and diffuse lesions ( P < 0. 001). Conclusions Se- vere clinical manifestation, left ventricular dysfunction, diffuse or complicated lesions of coronary arteries weremore common in patients with both CHD and T2DM, it suggests that the type 2 diabetic CHD patients have poor prognosis.

文摘Background Pro-protein convertase subtilisin/kexin type 9 (PCSK9) is a secreted protein that influences plasma levels of low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C). Both oxidized LDL and tissue factor (TF) contributed to the development of prothrombofic state. The pre- sent study aims to explore the relationship between plasma level of PCSK9 and that of TF in patient with coronary artery disease (CAD). Methods From July 2013 to March 2014, we enrolled 197 consecutive patients who underwent coronary angiography because of suspected CAD at Beijing Anzhen Hospital in this study. All patients had no history of using lipid-lowering medication. Of these 197 patients (1B 1 male and 66 female, mean age 56.9 ± 11.8 years), 81 had angiographically diagnosed CAD. Clinical data were collected. Plasma PCSK9 and TF were measured using enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA). Levels of plasma PCSK9 and TF were compared and their correlation analyzed among different patient groups. Results Both plasma levels of PCSK9 (279.8 ± 60.4μg/L vs. 216.5 ± 45.3μg/L, P 〈 0.01) and TF (156.4 ± 26.6 μg/mL vs. 112.1 ± 38.3 μg/L, P 〈 0.01) were significantly higher in patients with CAD, as compared with those with- out CAD. Correlation analysis showed plasma level of PCSK9 was significantly correlated with that of TF in both patients with and without CAD. However, multivariate regression analysis after adjustment for age, gender, smoking, alcohol, hypertension and hyperlipidemia showed that only in CAD patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus, there was significant positive correlation between plasma levels of PCSK9 and TF (β = 0.353, P 〈 0.01). Coneluslons The plasma level of PCSK9 is independently and positively associated with that of TF in CAD patients with diabetes mellitus, but not in those without diabetes mellitus. Further study is needed to investigate the underlying mechanism.

文摘Objective To determine the impact of smoking on disease-specific health care utilization and medical costs in patients with chronic non-communicable diseases(NCDs).Methods Participants were middle-aged and elderly adults with chronic NCDs from a prospective cohort in China.Logistic regressions and linear models were used to assess the relationship between tobacco smoking,health care utilization and medical costs.Results Totally,1020 patients with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease(COPD),3144 patients with coronary heart disease(CHD),and 1405 patients with diabetes were included in the analysis.Among patients with COPD,current smokers(β:0.030,95%CI:−0.032-0.092)and former smokers(β:0.072,95%CI:0.014-0.131)had 3.0%and 7.2%higher total medical costs than never smokers.Medical costs of patients who had smoked for 21-40 years(β:0.028,95%CI:−0.038-0.094)and≥41 years(β:0.053,95%CI:−0.004β0.110)were higher than those of never smokers.Patients who smoked≥21 cigarettes(β:0.145,95%CI:0.051-0.239)per day had more inpatient visits than never smokers.The association between smoking and health care utilization and medical costs in people with CHD group was similar to that in people with COPD;however,there were no significant associations in people with diabetes.Conclusion This study reveals that the impact of smoking on health care utilization and medical costs varies among patients with COPD,CHD,and diabetes.Tobacco control might be more effective at reducing the burden of disease for patients with COPD and CHD than for patients with diabetes.
文摘Background: Paraoxonase 1 (PON1) is reported to have an antioxidant and cardioprotective properties. Recently, an association of glutamine (Gln) or (type A)/arginine (Arg) or (type B) polymorphism at position 192 of PON1 gene has been suggested with coronary artery disease (CAD) among patients with diabetes mellitus (DM). However, conflicting results have also been reported. Objectives: To investigate the relationship between PON1 gene (Gln192-Arg) poly-morphism and the presence, extent and severity of CAD in type 2 DM. Methods: The study comprised 180 patients recruited from those undergoing coronary angiography for suspected CAD, who were divided according to the presence or absence of CAD and DM into 4 groups;Group I (n = 40 patients) nondiabetic subjects without CAD, Group II (n = 45 patients) diabetic patients without CAD, Group III (n = 47 patients) non diabetic patients with CAD and Group IV (n = 48 patients) diabetic patients with CAD. PON1 (Gln192-Arg) genotype was assessed using polymerase chain reaction (PCR) followed by AlwI digestion. Results: The frequency of Gln allele (Type A) was significantly higher in group I and group II compared to group III and group IV (62.5%, 60% vs 38.3%, 31.25% respectively, p 100 mg/dL [OR 4.31, CI (1.25 - 12.5), P < 0.001], high density lipoprotein (HDL) cholesterol <40 mg/dL [OR 5.11, CI (1.79 - 16.33), P < 0.001] and PON1 192 Arg allele [OR 4.62, CI (1.67 - 13.57), P < 0.001] were significantly independent predictors of CAD. Conclusion: Arg allele of PON1 192 gene polymorphism is an independent risk factor for CAD and it is associated not only with the presence of CAD but also with its extent and severity and its impact is clearly more pronounced in diabetic patients.
文摘Bilirubin has both antioxidant activity and cardioprotective potential. Decreased levels are associated with predicting CAD. Recent studies showed that bilirubin has inverse correlation with glycemic status. So in this we evaluated the role of Hepatobiliary function as a marker of predictor CAD in patient with T2DM. Total 100 subjects included 50 T2DM patients with CAD and 50 T2DM without CAD. All the subject venous blood was collected after overnight fasting for biochemical analysis. After the statistical analysis, the results showed significant difference between two groups as follows total bilirubin (0.32 ± 0.15;0.90 ± 032;p = 0.000), direct bilirubin, indirect bilirubibn, Total Protein, Albumin, ALT, AST, HbA1c. Our finding implies that decreased serum bilirubin increases the risk of CAD in patients with T2DM and it shows inverse correlation between HbA1c and bilirubin.

文摘More than 30 million Americans have diabetes mellitus(DM),and heart disease is the cause of death in 68%of them.Patients with DM are at increased risk of developing stable ischemic heart disease(SIHD)by several mechanisms.While noninvasive testing for ischemia is an intuitive strategy to reduce cardiovascular events,trial data do not show a clear benefi t.For the DM patient with no symptoms and no evidence of SIHD,two randomized trials found no benefi t for either nuclear stress or cardiac computed tomography.While silent ischemia is associated with increased cardiovascular risk,on a population level,reducing ischemia does not appear to improve outcomes.Another important consideration in the management of SIHD in DM patients is that recent randomized trial data show no benefi t from coronary revascularization for this population.In conclusion,the decision to test for ischemia may be a reasonable option in some DM patient groups;however,in many cases,revascularization for SIHD does not reduce mortality or the rate of myocardial infarction.

文摘Major chronic diseases such as Cardiovascular Disease(CVD),diabetes,and cancer impose a significant burden on people and healthcare systems around the globe.Recently,Deep Learning(DL)has shown great potential for the development of intelligentmobile Health(mHealth)interventions for chronic diseases that could revolutionize the delivery of health care anytime,anywhere.The aimof this study is to present a systematic review of studies that have used DL based on mHealth data for the diagnosis,prognosis,management,and treatment of major chronic diseases and advance our understanding of the progress made in this rapidly developing field.Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus(T2DMs)is a regular chronic disorder that is caused by the secretion of insulin,which leads to serious death-related issues and the most complicated ones.Coronary Heart Disease(CHD)is the most frequent issue related to T2DM patients.The major concern is recognizing the high possibility of CHD complications,yet the model is not available to identify it.This work introduces a deep learning technique that can predict heart disease effectively using a hybrid model,which integrates DNNs(Deep Neural Networks)with a Multi-Head Attention Model called MADNN.The scheme canbedesignedtoautomatically learnthe best-quality features fromElectronic Health Records(EHRs),and effectively combine heterogeneous and time-sequencedmedical data for predicting the risk of CVD.The analysis is done using the Kaggle dataset.The outcomes prove that the MADNN has improved accuracy by about 95%and indicates the precise accuracy is higher for the disease compared with SVM,CNN and ANN.
文摘BACKGROUND The lymphocyte to monocyte ratio(LMR)is considered a marker of systemic inflammation in cardiovascular disease and acts as predictor of mortality in coronary artery disease.AIM To investigate the predictive role of LMR in diabetic coronary artery disease patients.METHODS This cross-sectional study was conducted at tertiary care super-specialty hospital at New Delhi,India.A total of 200 angiography-proven coronary artery disease(CAD)patients were enrolled and grouped into two categories:Group I[CAD patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus(T2DM)and glycated hemoglobin(HbA1c)levels≥6.5%],and Group II(CAD patients without T2DM and HbA1c levels<6.5%).Serum lipoproteins,HbA1c,and complete blood count of enrolled patients were analyzed using fully automatic analyzers.RESULTS The logistic regression analysis showed an odds ratio of 1.48(95%CI:1.28-1.72,P<0.05)for diabetic coronary artery disease patients(Group I)in unadjusted model.After adjusting for age,gender,diet,smoking,and hypertension history,the odds ratio increased to 1.49(95%CI:1.29-1.74,P<0.01)in close association with LMR.Further adjustment for high cholesterol and triglycerides yielded the same odds ratio of 1.49(95%CI:1.27-1.75,P<0.01).Receiver operating characteristic curve analysis revealed 74%sensitivity,64%specificity,and 0.74 area under the curve(95%CI:0.67-0.80,P<0.001),suggesting moderate predictive accuracy for diabetic CAD patients.CONCLUSION LMR showed positive association with diabetic coronary artery disease,with moderate predictive accuracy.These findings have implications for improving CAD management in diabetics,necessitating further research and targeted interventions.
文摘Objective To explore the therapeutic effects of trimetazidine(TMZ)on diabetic patients with coronary heart diseases.Methods We conducted a comprehensive electronic search of PubMed,EMBASE,and Cochrane databases between the inception dates of databases and May 2019(last search conducted on 30 May 2019)to identify randomized controlled trials.The evaluation method recommended by Cochrane Collaboration for bias risk assessment was employed for quality assessment.Random or fixed models were used to investigate pooled mean differences in left ventricular function,serum glucose metabolism,serum lipid profile,myocardial ischemia episodes and exercise tolerance with effect size indicated by the 95%confidence interval(CI).Results Additional TMZ treatment contributed to considerable improvement of left ventricular ejection fraction(WMD=4.39,95%CI:3.83,4.95,P<0.00001),left ventricular end diastolic diameter(WMD=-3.17,95%CI:-4.90,-1.44,P=0.0003)and left ventricular end systolic diameter(WMD=-4.69,95%CI:-8.66,-0.72,P=0.02).TMZ administration also significantly decreased fasting blood glucose(SMD=-0.43,95%CI:-0.70,-0.17,P=0.001),glycosylated hemoglobin level(WMD=-0.59,95%CI:-0.95,-0.24,P=0.001),serum level of total cholesterol(WMD=-20.36,95%CI:-39.80,-0.92,P=0.04),low-density lipoprotein cholesterol(WMD=-20.12,95%CI:-32.95,-7.30,P=0.002)and incidence of myocardial ischemia episodes(SMD=-0.84,95%CI:-1.50,-0.18,P=0.01).However,there were no significant differences in serum triglyceride level,high-density lipoprotein cholesterol,exercise tolerance between the TMZ group and the control group.Conclusion TMZ treatment in diabetic patients with coronary heart disease is effective to improve cardiac function,serum glucose and lipid metabolism and clinical symptoms.
