Serum Total Protein and Its Related Factor in Very Elderly Hypertensive Patients
Abstract:Objective To investigate the serum total protein and related factors in very elderly patients with essential hyperten-sion.Methods All patients were divided into four groups:Group 1 age ≥ 80 years old,group 2 age 60 to 79 years old,group 3 age 40 to 59 years old,and group 4 age <40 years old.Serum total protein was measured and compared.Results The serum total protein was(64.80±6.89)g/L in group 1,(70.1±6.03)g/L in group 2,(73.75±3.92)g/L in group 3,and (75.17±3.96)g/L in group 4. Multiple linear regression analysis showed that age,diastolic blood pressure,lactate dehydrogenase,and serum high density lipopro-tein were related to total protein.Conclusion The lower total protein levels in very elderly hypertensive patients were related to age, diastolic blood pressure,and lactate dehydrogenase.
