Popis: The ratio of oxidized lipoprotein(a) to native lipoprotein(a) (oxLp(a)/Lp(a)) may be a reasonable index for assessing endothelial dysfunction in type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM). The present study investigated whether the oxLp(a)/Lp(a) level is correlated with the endothelial function using the Endo-PATTM, a newly developed device, in patients with T2DM. A total of 63 patients with T2DM (mean age: 59 years old) were enrolled in the study. The patients&rsquo
serum Lp(a) and oxLp(a) levels were measured using an enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay. The reactive hyperemia index (RHI) level was measured using an Endo-PATTM 2000. A correlation analysis between the measured variables was conducted. Among the patients, the mean hemoglobin A1c was 7.8%. The median level of oxLp(a)/Lp(a) was 0.28 (interquartile range: 0.07&ndash
0.54), and the mean RHI was 1.8 (standard deviation: 0.4). In a multiple linear regression analysis, the oxLp(a)/Lp(a) level was an independent, significant, and inverse variable for the RHI level (&beta
= &minus
0.26, p <
0.05), along with male gender. A high oxLp(a)/Lp(a) level may reflect endothelial dysfunction, as assessed by the Endo-PATTM, in patients with T2DM. Further studies are warranted to confirm the observed findings.
