Elderly patients with coronary heart disease over the serum iron level.docVIP

 PAGE \* MERGEFORMAT 12 Elderly patients with coronary heart disease over the serum iron level [Abstract] Objective To observe the very elderly coronary heart disease (CHD) patients with serum iron levels and for such people the value of the incidence of CHD. Methods Retrospective analysis ofgt; = 90 years old history of very elderly patients with CHD and clinical data serum iron levels, to take over the same period agedgt; = 90 years history of very elderly patients without CHD as the control group to compare patients with CHD and control group serum iron level and compare different gender, age group differences in serum iron levels, using ROC curve analysis diagnosis of CHD, serum iron values. The results of total serum iron concentration (10.09 + -0.61) mol / L, different age and sex group in patients with serum ferritin levels between the groups was no significant difference (Pgt; 0.05). The CHD group were serum iron concentration (11.54 + -6.57) mol / L, control group, serum iron concentration (8.31 + -6.20) mol / L, there was significant difference between the groups (P lt;0.01). Diagnostic value of serum iron on CHD The area under the ROC curve of 0.604 + -0.052, no diagnostic value (Pgt; 0.05). Conclusion Agegt; = CHD 90-year-old super old iron levels in patients with non-CHD patients, although significant differences between groups, but still can Serum to determine the level of iron CHD occur.
