The purpose of this study was to evaluate the relationship between monocyte to high-density lipoprotein cholesterol ratio (MHR) and carotid atherosclerostic plaque in patients with systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE).
A total of 214 SLE patients were divided into two groups according to the results of ultrasonic examination: carotid arterial atherosclerotic plaque groups and noncarotid arterial atherosclerosis groups.
The values of monocyte to high-density lipoprotein-cholesterol ratio (MHR) increase in carotid arterial atherosclerotic plaque groups compared with noncarotid arterial atherosclerosis groups (0.32 ± 0.18 vs 0.26 ± 0.15; p = 0.015). There was a significant correlation between MHR and carotid artery intima-media thickness (r = 0.228; p = 0.001) in patients with SLE.
Our study suggests that the values of MHR could be a marker to assess carotid artery intima-media thickness in patients with SLE.
本研究旨在评估系统性红斑狼疮(SLE)患者单核细胞与高密度脂蛋白胆固醇比值(MHR)与颈动脉粥样硬化斑块之间的关系。
根据超声检查结果,将214例SLE患者分为两组:颈动脉粥样硬化斑块组和非颈动脉粥样硬化组。
与非颈动脉粥样硬化组相比,颈动脉粥样硬化斑块组的单核细胞与高密度脂蛋白胆固醇比值(MHR)升高(0.32±0.18 vs 0.26±0.15;p = 0.015)。SLE患者的MHR与颈动脉内膜中层厚度之间存在显著相关性(r = 0.228;p = 0.001)。
我们的研究表明,MHR值可能是评估SLE患者颈动脉内膜中层厚度的一个指标。
