Abstract:Objective To analyze the epidemiological characteristics of risk factors of attack of aortic dissection disease (AD) in Chinese population. Methods The data of 1015 AD patients were retrospectively analyzed in 15 large-scale cardiologic centers from Jan. 1, 2011 to Dec. 31, 2012. AD patients were included into case group and 920 patients without AD at the same hospitalization time were included into control group. The data related to age, sex, body mass index (BMI), Behcet’s disease (BD), hypertension, blood fat and atherosclerosis was collected. Results Hypertension, Marfan’s syndrome, BD, smoking, drinking, simple renal cyst, bicuspid aortic valve, atherosclerosis, free fatty acid (FFA) and uric acid (UA) were independent risk factors of AD attack. The OR value of hypertension was 9.068, which indicated that hypertension was closely correlated to AD attack. ApoA-I (OR:0.173, 95%CI:2.56~12.79) and HDL (OR:0.122, 95%CI:4.57~9.26) were protective factors of AD attack. Conclusion Hypertension, Marfan’s syndrome, smoking, drinking, simple renal cyst, bicuspid aortic valve, atherosclerosis, UA and FFA are independent risk factors of AD attack in Chinese population, and ApoA-I and HDL are protective factors. The clinical doctors should pay attention to these risk factors.
