Objective To determine the levels of serum visfatin and HbA1c in patients with coronary heart disease and ex-plore the correlation with the severity of coronary atherosclerosis .Methods Totally 264 patients were enrolled who performed cor-onary angiography totally ,visfatin and HbA1c levels were detected respectively of 33 cases of control group ,51 cases of atheroscle-rosis group ,75 cases of single-vessel disease group ,72 cases of double-vessel disease group ,33 cases of triple-vessel disease group . Gensini score was used for evaluation of coronary artery lesion ,and to establish a multiple linear regression analysis of the relation-ship between each risk factor for coronary heart disease .According to the degree of coronary artery stenosis ,the patients also could be divided into the control group(33 cases) ,the non severe stenosis group (174 cases) and the severe stenosis group (57 cases) ,the changes of visfatin and HbA1c levels were analyzed in the three groups .Results In the groups by the coronary lesion count ,HbA1c levels increased with the degree of coronary artery lesions in the control group [(4 .98 ± 0 .21)% ] ,the atherosclerosis group [(5 .58 ± 0 .36)% ] ,the single-vessel disease group[(6 .17 ± 0 .48)% ] ,the double-vessel disease group[(6 .63 ± 0 .80)% ] ,the tri-ple-vessel disease group[(7 .97 ± 1 .49)% ] ,and comparisons had significant difference between any two groups(P< 0 .05) ;Visfatin level in the control group ,the atherosclerosis group ,the single-vessel disease group ,the double-vessel disease group ,the triple-ves-sel disease group were(0 .73 ± 0 .42)μg/L ,(1 .50 ± 0 .87)μg/L ,(3 .45 ± 2 .50)μg/L ,(5 .45 ± 2 .96)μg/L ,(9 .21 ± 6 .35)μg/L ,a-mong them coronary heart disease group (the single-vessel disease group ,the double-vessel disease group ,the triple-vessel disease group) is higher than the atherosclerosis group and the control group(P< 0 .05) ;the atherosclerosis group is higher than the con-trol group ,but there was no statistically significant difference(P> 0 .05) ;In according to the degree of coronary artery diameter ste-nosis ,the levels of visfatin ,HbA1c in severe stenosis group [(8 .25 ± 4 .86)μg/L ,(7 .35 ± 1 .43)% ] is significantly higher than the non severe stenosis group [(3 .22 ± 2 .74)μg/L ,(6 .14 ± 0 .70)% ] and the control group [(0 .73 ± 0 .42)μg/L ,(4 .98 ± 0 .21)% ] , P< 0 .01 ;The non severe stenosis group is significantly higher than the control group (P< 0 .01) .The levels of visfatin ,HbA1c ,hs-CRP ,LDL and TC had positive correlation with Gensini score(P< 0 .01) .The level of HDL was negatively correlated with Gensini score(r= - 0 .535 ,P < 0 .01) .The levels of visfatin ,HbA1c ,hs-CRP ,LDL and TC had positive correlation with visfatin ( P <0 .01) ,and the level of HDL and TG were negatively correlated with visfatin(P< 0 .01) .In multiple linear regression analysis ,the factors which finally entered the regression equation were HbA1c ,LDL ,hs-CRP ,visfatin and HDL .Conclusion The levels of visfa-tin and HbA1c is closely related to the severity of coronary atherosclerosis .Combined detection of visfatin and HbA1c can be used as important indicators for evaluating the severity of coronary atherosclerosis .
