Correlation between Traditional Chinese Medicine Syndrome Elements and GRACE Risk Score in ACS Patients with Different ApoE Genotypes
Objective:To observe the relationship between traditional Chinese medicine syndrome elements and GRACE risk score in patients with different ApoE genotypes in acute coronary syndrome(ACS),and to provide new ideas for individualized diagnosis and treatment of ACS patients.Methods:Information on TCM syndrome,ApoE genotype,physical and imaging examination results,and GRACE risk score were collected from 249 ACS pa-tients to analyze the correlation between TCM syndrome features of different ApoE genotypes in ACS patients and GRACE risk score.Results:A total of 32 cases of ApoE2 genotype,175 cases of ApoE3 genotype,and 42 cases of ApoE4 genotype were included.The results were statistically different(P<0.05):the correlation coefficient be-tween coagulated cold syndrome score and GRACE-age score in the E4 group was r=0.325 0,the correlation coef-ficient between qi deficiency syndrome score and GRACE-age score was r=0.329 0,the correlation coefficient be-tween qi deficiency syndrome score and GRACE-total score was r=0.388 2,and the correlation coefficient be-tween turbid phlegm syndrome score and GRACE-Killip grade score was r=0.386 0.In the E3 group,the correla-tion coefficient between coagulated cold syndrome score and GRACE-creatinine score was r=0.442 0,the correla-tion coefficient between coagulated cold syndrome score and GRACE-risk factor score was r=0.888 5,the correla-tion coefficient between turbid phlegm syndrome score and GRACE-risk factor score was r=0.149 2,and the corre-lation coefficient between heat accumulation syndrome score and GRACE-systolic blood pressure score was r=0.601 9.Conclusion:The risk level of GRACE score in ACS patients with E4 genotype of coagulated cold syn-drome,qi deficiency syndrome,and turbid phlegm syndrome is higher.ACS patients with E3 genotype of coagulat-ed cold syndrome,turbid phlegm syndrome,and heat accumulation syndrome have a higher risk of GRACE score.
