Abstract:
Objective To investigate the mechanism of insulin resistance (IR) with coronary heart disease (CHD) by the relationship study between IR and the risk factors of CHD as well as the severity of coronary lesions. Methods One hundred and twenty three patients with at least one vessel ≥50% luminal narrowing were analyzed from our consecutive angiographic data base, excluding patients concomitant with hepatic, renal, pancreatic diseases, thyroid disorders and diabetes mellitus (DM) with insulin therapy. Oral glucose tolerance test (OGTT), blood lipid, plasma insulin were performed in all patients. Insulin resistance was assessed by homeostasis model assessment (HOMA) to investigate the relationship study between insulin resistance and the risk factors of CHD,severity of coronary lesions as well as the clustering of risk factors (hypertension, overweight, impaired glucose tolerance/DM, high serum triglycerides, low high density lipoprotein cholesterol). Results The level of IR was correlated with the levels of body mass index (BMI), fasting glucose, postprandial glucose, fasting insulin, postprandial insulin, hypertension, serum triglycerides, and high density lipoprotein cholesterol. Meanwhile the level of IR was associated with clustering of risk factors and the extent and the severity of coronary lesions. Conclusion Insulin resistance may be the basis for disease. In the primary and secondary prevention of CHD, we should not only treat syndromes but also reduce the level of IR.
