Popis: Aims: We evaluated the synergistic effect of lipoprotein-associated phospholipase A2 (Lp-PLA2) in association with classical risk factors in predicting coronary heart disease (CHD) and demonstrated the diagnostic value of Lp-PLA2 for predicting coronary stenotic lesions in subjects with CHD. Methods: Blood samples were acquired from 911 consecutive adult subjects (662 males and 249 females) from 11 ethnic groups. Lp-PLA2 plasma levels were detected using a commercially available turbidimetric immunoassay (TIA). CHD in patients was confirmed using coronary angiography, and the severity of coronary atherosclerosis was assessed using the Gensini scoring system. Results: A binary logistic regression was performed to analyse the relationships between Lp-PLA2 and other risk factors. A multivariate logistic regression analysis revealed that Lp-PLA2 levels were significantly associated with CHD (OR, 1.882; 95% CI, 1.369-2.587, p=0.000).The area under the receiver operating characteristic curve for Lp-PLA2 was 0.589 (95%CI, 0.549-0.629, p=0.000).The synergism between Lp-PLA2 and other risk factors was also investigated. The proportion of CHD attributable to the interaction between Lp-PLA2 and age was as high as 64%. Conclusions: Lp-PLA2 levels in human plasma were positively associated with the severity of CHD, and there was a clear positive interaction between Lp-PLA2 and classical risk factors in predicting CHD.
