Objective  To study the relationship between the levels of plasma fibrinogen, serum bilirubin, uric acid and mild stenosis of coronary artery.
Methods  Patients with suspected myocardial ischemia who underwent coronary angiography in our hospital were divided into the coronary artery mild stenosis group and the normal control group according to the result of coronary arteriongraphy between April 2007 to May 2009. Logistic regression was used to identify the risk factor of mild stenosis of coronary artery.
Results  Two-hundred and seventy-nine patients involving 191 patients with mild stenosis of coronary artery and 88 patients with normal coronary artery were included. The factors of gender, age, history of hypertension or diabetes mellitus, smoking history, systolic blood pressure, levels of plasma fibrinogen and serum creatinin were significantly different between the two groups. Multivariate logistic regression models found that the factors of age (OR=1.084, 95%CI 1.040 to 1.129, P lt;0.001), hypertension (OR=3.025, 95%CI 1.462 to 6.261, P=0.003), diabetes mellitus (OR=2.519, 95%CI 1.066 to 5.951, P=0.035), smoking history (OR=5.412, 95%CI 2.186 to 13.401, P lt;0.001), plasma fibrinogen (OR=1.748, 95%CI 1.059 to 2.885, P=0.029), serum bilirubin (OR=0.599, 95%CI 0.418 to 0.858, P=0.005), and high-density lipoprotein (HDL) cholesterol (OR=0.219, 95%CI 0.049 to 0.985, P=0.048) were independently associated with mild stenosis of coronary artery. By contrast, the level of serum uric acid was not associated with mild stenosis of coronary artery.
Conclusion  Except for traditional risk factors, levels of fibrinogen and bilirubin are independent risk factors of mild stenosis of coronary artery.
