Abstract:
Objective To investigate the reasons for the inconsistent results between the vertical auto profile(VAP)method and bio-chemical homogeneous phase(BHP)method in detecting plasma low-density lipoprotein cholesterol(LDL-C),and provide experimen-tal basis for the accurate and quantitative detection of plasma LDL-C levels.Methods A total of 360 plasma samples from diabetes mellitus patients combined with carotid plaque admitted to the Department of Endocrinology of Ningbo Yinzhou Hospital of Traditional Chinese Medicine during January,2022 and January,2023 were collected.The LDL-C levels of these samples were detected by the VAP method and BHP method,respectively.The VAP method uses software to automatically calculate the area under the LDL-C curve after centrifugation of the sample as the LDL-C level(LDL-CVAP)and the BHP method directly detects the LDL-C level(LDL-CBHP)by the special surfactant method.360 samples were divided into the consistent group(group A)and inconsistent group(group B)ac-cording to the relative deviation between the LDL-CBHP and LDL-CVAP methods.Group B was further divided into the LDL-CBHP on the high side group(Group B1)and LDL-CBHP on the low side group(Group B2).Groups B1 and B2 were divided into B1-1,B1-2,B1-3 and B2-1 groups based on the degree of relative deviation.The percentages of samples and levels of lipoprotein a cholesterol[Lp(a)-C],intermediate-density lipoprotein cholesterol(IDL-C),Lp(a)-C and IDL-C[Lp(a)-C+IDL-C],very low-density lipo-protein cholesterol(VLDL-C),total cholesterol(TC)and total triglyceride(TG)in each group were compared.Results The LDL-CBHP levels of 360 samples were significantly higher than that of LDL-CVAP(P＜0.01).The percentage of samples in group B was significantly higher than that in group A,and that of group B1 was significantly higher than that of group B2(P＜0.05).The levels of Lp(a)-C,IDL-C and Lp(a)-C+IDL-C in groups B1-1,B1-2,and B1-3 were significantly higher than those in group A(P＜0.01).The relative deviation between LDL-CBHP and LDL-CVAP in 360 samples was significantly positively correlated with the levels of Lp(a)-C,IDL-C,and Lp(a)-C+IDL-C(P＜0.01).The maximum correlation coefficient was found in Lp(a)-C+IDL-C.Conclusion The results of plasma LDL-C in diabetes mellitus patients combined with carotid plaque detected by the BHP method are significantly different from those detected by the VAP method,which mainly shows that the results of the BHP method are on the high side.The higher the level of plasma Lp(a)-C+IDL-C,the greater the relative deviation between the BHP method and VAP method.The reason for the high results of LDL-C detected by the BHP method may be related to the fact that LDL-CBHP contains irremovable Lp(a)-C and cholesterol carried by IDL-C.The VAP method can be used as an accurate method for detecting real LDL-C without Lp(a)-C and IDL-C.
