Abstract:
Objective To study the relations among phlegm turbidity, blood stasis syndromes, Interleukin-6 (IL-6) and highly sensitive C-reactive protein (hs-CRP) in simple hypertension patients and those complicated with abnormal blood fat and/or diabetes.Methods Totally 319 cases of hypertension collected were divided into the group with simple hypertension (simple group, 98 cases) and the group with hypertension complicated with abnormal blood fat and/or diabetes (complicated group, 221 cases). The patients were classified according to the 4 different syndromes, i.e., phlegm turbidity, blood stasis, phlegm turbidity plus blood stasis, and not phlegm turbidity not blood stasis. ELISA was used to measure serum IL-6 content, and latex enhancement immune turbidimetry was applied to determine hs-CRP content.Results The contents of IL-6 and hs-CRP of the two groups were not significantly different. The content of hs-CRP of both groups in the 4 syndromes was not significantly different. In the simple group, the content of IL-6 in the 4 syndromes was not significantly different either. In the complicated group, the content of IL-6 in the syndrome of phlegm turbidity plus blood stasis was significantly higher than in other syndromes (P
