摘要
目的 超声评估早期类风湿性关节炎(RA)患者是否有动脉粥样硬化指征.方法 通过超声测量肱动脉内皮依赖流量介导的血管扩张(ED-FMD)和颈动脉内皮中层厚度(IMT),对85例早期RA患者和60名健康受试者进行动脉粥样硬化的超声评估.结果 两组间IMT和ED-FMD无明显差异.结论 与对照组相比,早期RA患者出现动脉粥样硬化无明显超声指征.
Abstract
Objective To evaluate atherosclerosis in early rheumatoid arthritis(RA) with ultrasonography. Methods 85 patients of early RA and 60 health volunteers were evaluated by endothelial dependent flow-mediated dilation(ED - FMD)of brachial artery and intima media thickness( IMT) of carotid artery using ultrasonography. Results There were no significant differences between RA patients and controls in terms of IMT and ED-FMD. Conclusion No signs of atherosclerosis were found by ultrasonography in patients with early RA.
