Abstract:
Objective To observe the association between baseline pulse pressure (PP)level and new-onset cardio-cerebrovascular events in diabetic population.Methods Physical examination data between July 2006 to October 2007 from a total of 101 510 employees of Kailuan Group were reviewed,8306 subjects with a fasting plasma glucose level of ≥ 7.0 mmol/L or with confirmed diabetes diagnosis and were enrolled in this prospective cohort study.Subjects were followed up for 38-53 (48.1 ± 3.1) months and the cardio-cerebrovascular events were obtained every six months,association between baseline PP and new-onset cardio-cerebrovascular events in the diabetic population were analyzed.Results (1) Incidences of total cardio-cerebrovascular events in the PP groups were 3.4%,2.8%,4.5%,6.4%,respectively.Incidences of cerebral infarction events and myocardial infarction were 2.1%,1.6%,2.9%,3.9% and 1.1%,0.7%,1.0%,1.7%,respectively.(2) Multivariate Cox' s proportional hazards regression analysis indicated that baseline PP group was the risk factor for total cardio-cerebrovascular events,cerebral infarction events and myocardial infarction,and the risk for all the events of the PP≥60 mm Hg (1 mm Hg =0.133 kPa) group was increasing.The values of RR(95% CI) were 1.88 (95% CI 1.34-2.65,P < 0.01),1.92 (95 % CI 1.23-2.99,P < 0.01) and 1.52 (95 % CI 0.82-2.81,P > 0.05) after adjust the other factors.(3) In line with increasing level of baseline PP,age,BMI,SBP,DBP,HDL-C,and hs-CRP levels significantly increased in this diabetic population (P < 0.01 or P < 0.05).Conclusion The level of high baseline PP is a risk factor for new-onset cardio-cerebrovascular events in diabetic population.
