Correlation of micro-inflammatory reaction and level of omentin-1 expression with coronary heart disease in maintenance hemodialysis patients by ZHU Shi-yan, CHEN Jian-quan, LUO Cheng-zhi, LI Dan-ni, FU Ling-ling, CHEN Chang-ming, GAN Ping

“…Objective To investigate the correlation between the micro-inflammatory reaction and the level of omentin-1 expression with the presence of coronary heart disease(CHD)in maintenance hemodialysis(MHD)patients.Methods Methods A total of 70 patients with MHD were admitted into our research during June 2010 to November 2016.All the patients were divided into 2groups:CHD group(group A)(n=36)and non-CHD group(group B)(n=34).The plasma levels of high sensitivity c-reactive protein(hs-CRP),interleukin-6(IL-6),omentin-1 and other clinical markers were also measured during the first 3 days.After three times of measurements with the same techniques at different time points(the first month,the third month,and the sixth month),the average values were taken as a reference.We analyzed the change of the parameters and evaluated their correlation with the CHD.Results The hs-CRP and IL-6 levels were significantly higher(P<0.05),and ALB and Hb levels were significantly lower in group A than in group B(P<0.05).The level of SCr and BUN had no statistically significant difference between two groups(P>0.05).The level of omentin-1 in the group A(12.85±6.35 ng/mL)was significantly lower than that in the group B(18.58±7.68)ng/mL(P<0.05).Pearson correlation analysis revealed that the level of omentin-1was negatively correlated with hs-CRP and IL-6(r=-0.235,P<0.05;r=-0.186,P<0.05),and positively correlated with Alb and Hb(r=0.324,P<0.05;r=0.296,P<0.05),but not correlated with SCr and BUN(r=-0.028,P>0.05;r=-0.032,P>0.05).Logistic regression analysis showed that the increases in hs-CRP and IL-6 or the decreases in omentin-1 were the risk factors for CHD,and the Alb,Hb,SCr and BUN had no correlation with the incidence of CHD.ConclusionsThe increases in hs-CRP and IL-6 or the decrease in omentin-1 may be involved in the occurrence and development of CHD.…”

Overall, on this westerly dominated glacier, the weak sublimation in overcast conditions was primarily associated with the combined effect of significantly higher air moisture and decreased wind speed. …”
