Abstract:
Objective:To analyze the relationship of lipoprotein associated phospholipase A 2 (Lp-PLA2) and severity of coronary atherosclerosis, and evaluate the effects of rosuvastatin at different doses on the concentration of plasma Lp -PLA2.Methods: Totally 152 cases of patients with suspected coronary heart disease were treated with coronary angiography .According to the results of angiogra-phy, the patients were divided into the coronary heart disease group ( n=117 ) and the normal control group ( without coronary heart disease,n=35).Gensini integral scale was performed and referring to the number of diseased coronary arteries , the degree of coronary atherosclerosis was evaluated .The concentration of serum Lp-PLA2 was detected and the relationship of Lp-PLA2 and the severity of coronary plaque was evaluated .Meanwhile , the patients with coronary heart disease were divided into 2 groups and orally treated with rosuvastatin respectively at the routine dose (10 mg· d-1 ) and the loading dose (20 mg· d-1 ).The changes of the plasma concentra-tion of Lp-PLA2 before the treatment, in the 2nd, 4th,8th and 12th week after the medication were measured and the effect of atorvastatin at different doses on the plasma concentration of Lp-PLA2 was summarized .Results: The plasma Lp-PLA level in the control group was (22.22 ±1.75) μmol· ml-1, while that in the coronary heart disease group was (29.03 ±3.99) μmol· ml-1(P<0.05).The differences in Lp-PLA2 levels between the groups with different Gensini scores of coronary heart disease were statistically significant ( P<0.05).The higher scores were, the higher Lp-PLA2 levels were.The results of multivariate analysis showed that the severity of cor-onary atherosclerosis was significant and positive correlated with Lp-PLA2 level (OR=1.613,P<0.05).In the 2nd, 4th, 8th and 12th week after the medication , Lp-PLA2 levels in the loading dose group were significantly lower than those in the routine dose group ( P<0.05).In the 2nd, 4th, 8th and 12th week after the medication, the degree scores of coronary artery stenosis in the loading dose group were reduced.The decreasing range was significantly greater than that in the routine dose group (P<0.05).The incidence of adverse cardiovascular events in the routine dose group (27.12%) was significantly higher than that in the loading dose group (6.90%) ( P<0.05).The incidence of adverse drug reactions in the routine dose group was 11.86%, while that in the loading dose group was 18.97%(P>0.05).Conclusion:Lp-PLA2 is correlated with the severity of coronary plaque .High dose of rosuvastatin can reduce plasma Lp-PLA2 concentration in the patients .
