Abstract：Objective To survey the cardiovascular and cerebrovascular risk factors and complications of heart, brain and kidney in elderly patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) complicating hypertension in Beijing local rural area.Methods The questionnaire survey and physical examination were carried out in elderly persons aged over 60 in Zhangziying area of Beijing Daxing District, and 573 cases were diagnosed with T2DM and hypertension (T2DM+HP group) and 139 cases diagnosed with only T2DM (T2DM group). At the same time 674 cases with normal physical examination were chosen as control group. The incidence of hypertension, diabetes and complications of heart, brain and kidney were investigated by using questionnaire, and data of body mass index (BMI), blood pressure (BP), plasma glucose, TC, TG, LDL-C, HDL-C, BUA and Cr were detected through physical and laboratory examinations.Results The levels of BP, plasma glucose, TC, TG, LDL-C, BUA, Cr, BMI, WBC and platelet count increased, and HDL-C decreased in T2DM+HP group compared with control group (allP<0.05). In T2DM+HP group, TC (1.737 times), TG (3.851 times), LDL-C (1.868 times), UA (2.466 times), Cr (2.546 times) and obesity rate (3.426 times) increased and HDL-C (2.498 times) decreased compared with control group. The percentage of patients with complications of heart, brain and kidney increased in T2DM+HP group compared with control group and T2DM group (allP<0.05).Conclusion The risk factors of complications of heart, brain and kidney increase in elderly patients with T2DM complicating hypertension.
