    Abstract:
    Objective To evaluate the relation of the pulse pressure (PP) to the severity of coronary artery disease Methods Three hundred seventy four patients with coronary artery disease were diagnosed by coronary angiography, 306 male patients, 68 female patients, mean age 31~81 (58 1±10 1) years old Brachial systolic and diastolic blood pressure were measured The severity of coronary heart disease was shown as the number of diseased arteries Results Patients with essential hypertension (EH)had higher incidence of 2 coronary artery disease (37 5% vs 8 6%) and 3 coronary artery disease (27 2% vs 14 8%) than those without EH ( P 0 001) Compared to patients with PP65mm Hg, patients with PP≥65mm Hg had higher incidence of 3 coronary artery disease (35 9% vs 19 4%, P 0 05) In a multivariate analysis, age and aortic dimension were the best predictor for the severity of coronary lesions Conclusion Pulse pressure was the simpliest parameter reflecting large artery elasticity and closely related to severity of coronary artery disease This parameter could be a marker of cardiovascular risk, instructing early intervention

    Objective:To study the changes of peripherial artery elasticity indexes in patients with coronary artery disease (CAD). Methods:After percutaneous transluminal coronary angiography,a total of 106 patients with CAD and 84 normal subjects were recruited. Large artery elasticity index (C1) and small artery elasticity index (C2) of these subjects were measured. The relationship between cardiovascular risk factors (age,hypertension and diabetes history,pulse pressure),the number of diseased coronary artery and artery elasticity was analysed. Results:(1) C1 and C2 in patients with CAD were lower significantly than controls. (2) C1 and C2 in patients combined with hypertension were lower significantly than that in normotensive patients.C2 in patients combined with diabetes were lower significantly than that in nondiabetic patients. (3) With the numbers of diseased coronary artery and pulse pressure increasing,C1 and C2 in patients decreased significantly. (4) The multiple regression analysis indicated that age,pulse pressure and the number of diseased coronary artery were risk factors which affected C1. And diabetes mellitus was risk factor,which affected C2 except for above factors. Conclusion:Artery elasticity indexes (C1 and C2) might partly be the important non-invasive indexes,which could be used to evaluate the artery function of patients with CAD.

    The aim of this study was to assess the relationship between 24 h blood pressure (BP) profile, extent of significant coronary artery stenosis, confirmed by coronary angiography, and cardiovascular events in patients with coronary artery disease. Coronary angiographies were performed for all included subjects and significant coronary artery stenosis was considered as ≥ 50% stenosis by atherosclerotic plaque. Twenty-four-hour ambulatory BP monitoring was performed. Major advanced cardiovascular events (MACE) included revascularization, cardiovascular mortality, total mortality, acute coronary syndromes and stroke. BP analysis revealed higher night-time systolic blood pressure (SBP) values in patients with three or more significant coronary artery stenoses than in those without significant stenosis (120.7 ± 16.4 vs 116.7 ± 14.3 mmHg, p < 0.001), lower night-time SBP dip in patients with three or more significant coronary artery stenoses than in those without significant stenosis (5.7 ± 3.2 vs 7.4 ± 6.8 mmHg, p < 0.001) and lower night-time diastolic blood pressure dip in patients with three or more significant stenoses than in patients without significant stenosis (9.4 ± 7.4 vs 11.9 ± 7.4 mmHg, p < 0.001). Night-time SBP values, night-time/daytime SBP dip and extent of significant coronary artery stenosis were risk factors for MACE, revascularization and cardiovascular mortality. In conclusion, the study shows that advanced coronary artery disease is related to blunted night-time BP dipping and cardiovascular complications.

    Objective To assess the relationship between different pulse pressure indices(PPI) and the severity of coronary artery stenosis. Methods One hundred and fifty-six patients were included. All patients(mean age 59.15±10.60 years, 103 males and 53 females) underwent coronary angiography. Brachial, aortic and 24 h ambulatory systolic blood pressure(SBP),diastolic blood pressure(DBP) were measured before, midst and after coronary angiography. The severity of coronary artery stenosis was evaluated by the number of impaired arteries and Gensini score. Results Patients with essential hypertension(EH) had higher incidence of coronary heart disease(CHD)(73.6% vs 58.5%,P=0.032)than those without EH. Patients with EH had higher incidence of 3 coronary artery lesions(35.2% vs 12.3%,P=0.001)than those without EH. They were all significantly higher in patients with CHD than in the normal subjects for either brachial, aortic or 24 h ambulatory SBP, PP and PPI. Logistic multivariate analysis indicated that PPI were all closely related to the severity of coronary artery lesions. And 24 h ambulatory PPI, compared with other factors, is the better predictor for the severity of coronary artery lesions. Conclusion PPI are all the independent risk factors of the severity of coronary artery stenosis,and the 24 h ambulatory PPI is the better predictor of severity of CHD.
