Abstract
Objective To analysis the carotid artery intima-media thickness and incidence of plaque in patients with diagonal earlobe crease.Methods Sixty patients with DELC were recruited into the DELC group,while 50 non-DELC patients were recruited into the control group.All patient′s weight,height ,history of smoking,hypertension,diabetes mellitus,cerebral infarction,myocardial infarction were recorded.Carotid structure were detected by color Doppler ultra-sound.Men ratio,body mass index(BMI),smoking prevalence,the prevalence rate of hypertension,diabetes mellitus,cere-bral infarction,myocardial infarction,carotid artery IMT and incidence of plaque were compared between two groups.Re-sult 1.Compared with control group,BMI and smoker of DELC group were no significant different,but more older [(72.6 ±8.4)y VS.(66.1 ±14.7)y,P <0.05]and also with higher prevalence rate of hypertension(75.0% VS. 56.0%,P <0.05),diabetes mellitus(45.0% VS.26.0%,P <0.05),cerebral infarction(43.3% VS.22.0%,P <0.05), myocardial infarction(36.7% VS.16.0%,P <0.05).2.IMT and incidence of carotid plaque in DELC group were signifi-cantly higher than those in control group[(1.21 ±0.27)mm VS.(0.84 ±0.21)mm,P <0.05](85% VS 62%,P <0.05).Conclusion Atherosclerosis and its risk factors screening should be strengthened in patients with DELC.关键词
