Research on high-sensitivity C-reactive protein in type 2 diabetes patients with atherosclerosis

Objective To probe into the relationship between high-sensitivity C-reactive protein(Hs-CRP),cholesterol(TC),triglyceride(TG),low-density lipoprotein cholesterol(LDL-C) and the emergence of atherosclerosis in patients with type 2 diabetes.Methods Hs-CRP,LDL-C,and TG and TC were detected by immunoturbidimetry,one-step method and oxidase method respectively in 150 diabetes patients(experimental group) and 50 healthy controls(control group).Results The levels of Hs-CRP,TG,TC and LDL-C were significantly higher in experimental group than in the control group(P0.001).The level of Hs-CRP in group C(Poor blood sugar control) was obviously higher than group B(Blood sugar control general) and group A(Good blood glucose control)(P0.01) and higher in group B than group A(P0.01) Hs-CRP level was positively correlated with the levels of TG,TC and LDL-C.Conclusion The levels of Hs-CRP,TG,TC and LDL-C are closely related with atherosclerosis in patients with type 2 diabetes,they can be used as risk predictors for type 2 diabetes-related atherosclerosis.
