The relationship between inflammatory reaction and formation of carotid plaque in hypertension patients
Abstract：Objective To investigate the relationship between inflammatory reaction and formation of carotid plaque in hypertension patients , and to find out optimum way to prevent and treat these diseases .Methods Two hundred and seventy-six hospitalized hypertension patients with or without carotid plaque treated in our hospital from June 2009 to March 2013 were enrolled in this study , including 192 patients with carotid plaque and 84 patients with-out carotid plaque .Hypersensitive C-reactive protein ( hs-CRP) in all patients were detected routinely .All patients were detected carotid plaque by Colour Doppler Ultrasound .and try to know about the relationship between hs-CRP and formation of carotid plaque in hypertension patients .Results In hypertension patients , those with carotid plaque have higher hs-CRP than that in those without carotid plaque ( P<0.01 ) .Conclusion Inflammatory reaction has close relative with the formation of carotid plaque in hypertension patients .
