Abstract:
Objective To explore the relationship between Lp (a)level and age,gender in Nanjing area.Methods 8 442 ser-um specimens from examination individuals were collected in the First Affiliated Hospital of Nanjing Medical University in 2014.Lp (a)was measured by immune turbidimetry method.All the subjects were divided into six groups:15~29,30~44, 45~59,60~69,70~79 and ≥80 years old.SPSS21.0 software was used to carry out statistics.Results The Lp(a)level in female [134±197 mg/L (M±QR,the same below)]was higher than that in male significantly (U =8 355 137,P <0.001). LP (a)levels from people of different sex correlated with the age weakly (r =0.154,P <0.001),and increased with age groups.Lp(a)of six groups in male were 106.5± 151.0,119.0± 170.0,128.0± 179.0,159.0±206.0,145.0±200.0 and 162.0± 190.0 mg/L respectively.The difference was statistically significant between between 1 and 2 groups,2 and 3 groups,3 and 4 groups,theU value were 645 152.5,1 006 572.0,197 595.0 respectively;P all<0.05.The difference was not statistically significant between 4 and 5 groups,5 and 6 groups,3 and 4 groups,theU value were 59 127.0 and 15 959.5 respectively,P >0.05.Lp(a)of six groups in female were 128.0 ± 194.0,128.0 ± 187.0,139.0 ± 207.0,157.0 ± 228.0, 173.5±227.0 and 150.0±201.0 mg/L.The difference was statistically significant between 2 and 3 groups,theU value was 641 147,P =0.006,respectively.The difference was not statistically significant between 1 and 2 groups,3 and 4 groups,4 and 5 groups,5 and 6 groups,theU value were 783 676,92 442.5,16 069.5 and 3 038,respectively;P all>0.05.Conclusion Lp (a)level in healthy population in Nanjing area is related to gender and age groups,it is necessary to establish different reference ranges.
