Abstract:
Objective: To evaluate the influence of metabolic syndrome (MS) on coronary lesions in elder patients with hypertension.
Methods: A cohort of 210 hypertensive patients at the age of 60 years or elder who received coronary angiography in our hospital from 2012-06 to 2013-01 were studied. The patients were divided into 2 groups, MS group,n=85 and Non-MS group,n=125 patients without MS. The coronary lesion distribution, number and Gensini score were analyzed and compared between 2 groups.
Results: Compared with Non-MS group, MS group showed increased BMI, TG, HDL-C and fasting blood glucose, allP<0.001. There were no real differences for lesion distribution in left main, left anterior descending branch and the number of patients with normal coronary artery between 2 groups, allP>0.05. MS group had higher Gensini score, more lesions at left circumlfex and right coronary artery, more patients with coronary lesions and more patients with 3-branch disease,P<0.05. Logistic regression analysis indicated that MS is the independent risk factor for coronary lesions and the risk is higher than any single components of MS.
Conclusion: MS is related to the severity of coronary lesions in elder patients with hypertension.
