Abstract:
Objective To study the influencing factors of raised D-dimer levels in elderly people.Methods 592 elderly people underwent physical examination in our hospital were selected.They were divided into observation group and control group according to the level of D-dimer.The clinical data,liver and kidney function and blood lipid levels between both groups were compared.Re-sults There were no significant difference on gender,BMI,FBG,ALT,AST and Cr between both groups (P >0.05),but the age of patients in the observation group were significantly higher than that of the control group(P <0.05).The PT,CRP,bacterial pneu-monia and (or)of acute exacerbations of chronic bronchitis,cancer,diabetes patients in the observation group were significantly higher than those in control group,while LDL-C,TC were significantly lower than that of the control group,there were significant differences (P <0.05).The plasma D-dimer level in patients showed positive correlation with CRP and age (r =0.27,0.25,P <0.05).Conclusion Malignant tumor,type 2 diabetes,bacterial pneumonia,acute exacerbation of chronic bronchitis are the risk fac-tors of raised plasma D-dimer levels in the elderly.
