Methods: Sixty-one patients with CHD were divided into 3 groups according to their TCM Syndrome type, 10 patients in the group without Xin-Qi deficiency (Group A), 25 in the group with Xin-Qi deficiency but without Shen-Yang deficiency (Group B) and 26 in the group both with Xin-Qi deficiency and Shen-Yang deficiency (Group C). Levels of 17-hydroxy-corticoste-roid in urine (urinary 17-OHCS) per 24 hrs, and serum level of high density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL-C) and high density lipoprotein phospholipid (HDL-PL) in them were determined in synchrostep and compared with those in the control group of 23 healthy aged persons, urinary 17-OHCS per 24 hrs was taken as the diagnostic standard to screen a new index for diagnosis of Shen-Yang deficiency Syndrome, and preliminary appraisal to the index was made. Results: Serum HDL-PL in the CHD-SYD patients( Group C) was 616+157 mg/L, which was obviously lower than that in the patients of Group A and B. With low HDL-PL(<650 mg/L) used as the index to diagnose CHD-SYD, the sensitivity was 73%, the specificity 86% and the accuracy 80%. Conclusion: HDL-PL <650 mg/L could be adopted as an index for CHD-SYD diagnosis, which is simple and practical.展开更多

Methods： Sixty-eight patients with confirmed coronary heart disease （CHD） were selected for TCM syndrome typing into Pi- deficiency （PD） group and non-Pi-deficiency （NPD） group. Routine blood lipids and serum lipoprotein electrophoretogram （SLPG） were determined in all patients to analyze the total content of HDL and its relative contents of sub-components HDL1-5, as well as their relation with PD syndrome. Besides, a healthy control group （62 cases） was set up. Results： The level of serum HDL-C was lowered, SLPG abnormality rate increased in the patients with CHD, with total HDL and the relative contents of sub- component HDL1 and HDL3 significantly lower than those in the healthy control group （P〈0.01）. The total HDL, HDL1 and HDL3 in the PD group were also lower than those in the NPD group （P〈0.05, P〈0.01）. Conclusion： Serum HDL and its sub-components showed a definite relation with TCM PD syndrome type, therefore, further exploring the granular specificity of HDL and its sub-components as well as their influence on reverse cholesterol transport （RCT） may hopefully provide clues for developing RCT regulatory Chinese new drugs and for CHD prevention and treatment.展开更多

文摘Objective： To explore the relationship of Pi （脾）-deficiency syndrome in TCM with the change of serum high density lipoprotein （HDL） in blood lipid metabolic disorder. Methods： Sixty-eight patients with confirmed coronary heart disease （CHD） were selected for TCM syndrome typing into Pi- deficiency （PD） group and non-Pi-deficiency （NPD） group. Routine blood lipids and serum lipoprotein electrophoretogram （SLPG） were determined in all patients to analyze the total content of HDL and its relative contents of sub-components HDL1-5, as well as their relation with PD syndrome. Besides, a healthy control group （62 cases） was set up. Results： The level of serum HDL-C was lowered, SLPG abnormality rate increased in the patients with CHD, with total HDL and the relative contents of sub- component HDL1 and HDL3 significantly lower than those in the healthy control group （P〈0.01）. The total HDL, HDL1 and HDL3 in the PD group were also lower than those in the NPD group （P〈0.05, P〈0.01）. Conclusion： Serum HDL and its sub-components showed a definite relation with TCM PD syndrome type, therefore, further exploring the granular specificity of HDL and its sub-components as well as their influence on reverse cholesterol transport （RCT） may hopefully provide clues for developing RCT regulatory Chinese new drugs and for CHD prevention and treatment.
