摘要
目的:研究痴呆患者血浆同型半胱氨酸(Hey)浓度变化与痴呆患者认知功能障碍的关系。方法:筛选我科门诊及住院患者40例,进行MMSE量表评分,分为轻痴呆组、中痴呆组、重度痴呆组和对照组各10例,并监测患者血浆Hcy浓度进行对比分析。结果:各痴呆组血浆Hcy浓度较对照组明显增高;轻度痴呆组血浆同型半胱氨酸浓度较中度痴呆组和重度痴呆组降低,各痴呆组与对照组相比较,中重度痴呆组与轻度痴呆组相关性比较,均具有统计学意义(P〈0.05);MMSE量表评分与Hcy水平呈负相关(r=-0.862,P〈0.05)。结论:痴呆患者血浆Hcy含量增高,并随痴呆程度的加重而增加。
To explore the relationship between plasma levels of homocysteine (Hcy) and dementia in elderly patients. METHODS: There were all 40 patients in our hospital, and 30 cases as study group and 10 as control group. According to mini -mental state examination score (MMSE) the patients with dementia were divided into three groups: mild dementia group, the dementia group and sever dementia group. The plasma of Hcy were compared and the relation between Hcy levels and degree of de- mentia was analyzed. RESULTS: Plasma levels of Hey in study group was significantly higher than those in control group (P 〈 0. 05 ). Plasma levels of Hcy in mild dementia group were significantly lower than those in dementia and severe group ( P 〈 0.01 ). Plasma levels of Hcy in dementia group were negatively related with MMSE score ( r = - 0. 862 ). CONCLUSION : Dementia is correlated to high Hey. The degree of dementia is significantly correlated to the rise of plasma levels of Hcy too.
