Abstract:
Objective To analyze the relationship and clinical meaning of serumglutamyl transpeptidase (GGT) level with left atrial diameter.Methods All the 320 essential hypertension patients from Ganzhou People′s Hospital were divided into normal left atrial group and enlarged left atrial group based on the size of left atrial diameter.Fasting blood glucose,serum lipid,routine laboratory tests,hepatic and renal function and blood pressure were measured by routine methods,and used for analyzing between groups.Results Among essential hypertension patients,the GGT level in enlarged left atrial group [(24.78±10.93)U/L] was lower than normal left atrial group[(35.23±12.46)U/L] (P=0.004).Multiple linear regression analysis showed that the serum GGT was negatively correlated with left atrial diameter (P=0.032),and logistic regression analysis showed that GGT was a protective factor for enlarged left atrial (OR=0.424,P=0.026).Conclusion Our study demonstrated the level of GGT was negatively with left atrial diameter among essential hypertension patients,and monitoring the changes of serum liver enzyme may has significant effect on the early detection of enlarged left atrial diameter.
