Abstract:
Objective:To investigate the correlation of the gamma-glutamyl transpeptidase to platelet ratio(GPR)and monocyte count to high-density lipoprotein cholesterol(HDL-C)ratio(MHR)with the severity of coronary artery disease in elderly patients with essential hypertension(EH)combined with unstable angina pectoris(UA).Methods:A total of 218 EH patients aged 60 years and over undergoing coronary arteriography admitted to cardiology department of our hospital were enrolled from September 2018 to September 2019.They were divided into the EH plus UA group(n=113)and the simple EH group(n=105)according to whether UA was combined.In addition, 106 patients with normal coronary angiography who were suspected with coronary heart disease were selected as the healthy group.General data of patients between three groups were compared.Severity of coronary artery disease was evaluated using a Gensini score.The correlation of GPR and MHR with coronary Gensini scores was analyzed in the EH plus UA group.Patients in the EH plus UA group were sub-grouped into the single-, double- and triple-vessel disease groups according to the number of disease branches.Differences in coronary Gensini scores, GPR and MHR were compared among subgroups.A receiver operating characteristic(ROC)curve was used to evaluate the auxiliary diagnostic efficacy of GPR, MHR and the combined GPR and MHR in the EH plus UA group.Results:Compared with the healthy group, both EH plus UA group and EH group showed that the BMI(25.8±3.4 kg/m 2, 25.4±3.6 kg/m 2vs.24.2±2.3 kg/m 2), triglyceride(1.9±1.2, 2.0±1.2 vs.1.5±1.1 mmol/L), and MHR(6.6±1.4, 5.8±1.7 vs.4.9±1.7)were increased, and the HDL-C(1.1±0.2 mmol/L, 1.1±0.3 mmol/L vs.1.3±0.3 mmol/L)were reduced( P<0.05), and only EH plus UA group showed that white blood cells(6.7±1.5×10 9/L vs.6.1±1.8×10 9/L), LDL-C(2.3±0.6 mmol/L vs.2.1±0.6 mmol/L)and GPR(0.3±0.1 vs.0.2±0.1)were higher than in the healthy group( P<0.05). Compared with the EH group, the EH plus UA group showed that the GPR(0.3±0.1 vs.0.2±0.1), and MHR(6.6±1.4 vs.5.8±1.7)were increased( P<0.05). The correlation analysis showed that the levels of GPR and MHR were positively correlated with Gensini scores in the EH plus UA group( r=0.537, 0.333, P<0.05), and the correlation was better along with the increased number of diseased branches( P<0.05). The ROC curve analysis showed that GPR had a high specificity and positive predictive value with the specificity of 68.9% and the area under the ROC curve( AUC)of 0.842, while MHR had a high sensitivity with the sensitivity of 92.9%.The combined detection of GPR and MHR had a higher specificity and positive predictive value with a specificity of 84.0% and the AUC of 0.871. Conclusions:The increase of GPR and MHR can be used as a marker to assist the diagnosis of EH combined with UA, and to assess the severity of coronary artery disease in the elderly.
