Trombocytadhesion hos typ 2 diabetiker : Påverkan av blodlipider och CRP

Sammanfattning: Type-2 diabetes has become a common disease. The complications associated with thedisease are often cardiovascular. Platelets are important components in hemostasis, one function is platelet adhesion. Platelet adhesion is the first step to form a platelet plug, together with subendothelial proteins. Blood lipids contribute to membrane structure of cells and has an important role in different signaling pathways. They have a key role in platelet activation and is associated with the changes in membrane lipids. C-reactive protein (CRP) is an acute phase protein and increases during inflammation. The physiological role is not fully known but increasing levels of CRP increases the risk for cardiovascular complications. The aim of this study was to analyze the correlation between platelet adhesion with blood lipids and high sensitivity CRP in type-2 diabetics. 69 patients with type-2 diabetes participated in this study. Lipids, CRP and platelet adhesion were analyzed, the values were used to perform correlation analysis. The results show statistically significant positive correlations between ApoA-1, HDL and platelet adhesion as well as significant negative correlations between LDL, ApoB/ApoA-1-ratio, LDL/HDL-ratio and platelet adhesion. ApoA-1 and platelet adhesion with collagen showed statistically significant correlations with r-values 0,299-0,436. ApoA-1/ApoB-quota showed statistically significant correlations with r-values from -0,492 to -0,268. Majority of correlations between totalcholesterol, ApoB, triglycerides, hsCRP and platelet adhesionshowed no statistically significant correlations.
