Abstract
The present study aims at determining the relationship between the plasma fibrinogen concentration and the severity of coronary heart disease in type 2 diabetic patients. Prospective analytical survey, based on a sample of 120 subjects divided in four groups: 30 non diabetic coronary patients (G1), 30 coronary diabetic patients (G2), 30 non-coronary diabetic patients (G3), and 30 healthy subjects (G4). The average age was 59.58±7.88 years; female gender predominated by 52.5%. The plasma fibrinogen concentration corresponded to 3.46g/L±0.86 in G1; 3.73g/L±1.11 in G2; 3.06g/L±0.98 in G3 and 2.46g/L±0.51 in G4; with a significant difference between the four groups (P=0.001). The plasma fibrinogen concentration increased in parallel with the cardiovascular risk (P=0.0001); there was also a significant correlation between the plasma fibrinogen concentration and the clinical and para-clinical coronary disease severity (respectively P=0.005 and P=0.0001). A positive correlation between the plasma fibrinogen concentration and hyperglycemia (P=0.035) was found in G4. But no correlation with the lipids parameters, except for the low density-lipoproteins in G3 (P=0.035). In the Moroccan population, the plasma fibrinogen concentration was ...Continue Reading
