Abstract:
Objective To identify the potential correlation of serum 25-hydroxyvitamin D3 [25 (OH)D3]and C-reactive protein (CRP) with coronary artery disease.Methods We measured the serum 25 (OH)D3 and CRP levels in 416 suspected coronary heart disease patients who underwent coronary angiography.Gensini scores were used to assess the severity of coronary stenosis.Based on the results of coronary angiography,the 416 patients were divided into normal group (n =246),stable angina group (n =110),and acute coronary syndrome (ACS) group (n =60).Results The serum levels of 25 (OH) D3 in the normal group and stable angina group were significantly higher than that in the ACS gropu [(33.15 ± 20.95) nmol/L vs.(15.55 ±5.7) nmol/L,(28.93 ± 16.45) nmol/Lvs.(15.55 ± 5.7) nmol/L,bothP＜0.001].TheCRPlevelin the normal group was significantly lower than those in the stable angina group and the ACS group [(4.33 ± 0.12) rng/Lvs.(5.68 ± 0.25) mg/L,(4.33 ± 0.12) mg/Lvs.(5.73 ± 0.31) mg/L,bothP＜0.001].The serum 25 (OH)D3 was not correlated with CRP or Gensini score in the normal group.In the ACS group,the serum 25 (OH) D3 was negatively correlated with CRP level and Gensini score (r =-0.026,P =0.045 ; r =-0.256,P =0.048),while CRP level was positively correlated with Gensini score (r =0.459,P ＜0.001).Inthe stable angina group,the serum 25 (OH)D3 was also negatively correlated with CRP level and Gensini score (r =-0.211,P =0.027; r =-0.208,P =0.029),and the latter two were positively correlated (r =0.574,P ＜ 0.001).Conclusions Low serum 25 (OH) D3 levels are associated with coronary artery stenosis.Combining with CRP,it may be involved in the pathogenesis of coronary heart disease through inflammatory mechanism.
