Study On The Correlation Between Traditional Chinese Medicine Syndrome Types Of Diabetic Lower Extremity Arterial Disease And Carotid Ultrasound

Objective:To explore the relationship between Traditional Chinese Medicine syndromes of Diabetic Lower Extremity Arterial Disease and Common Carotid Artery Intima-media Thickness,Thickening of Common Carotid Artery Intima-media Thickness,carotid artery plaque detection rate,plaque nature and the degree of carotid stenosis.Method: The Diabetic Lower Extremity Arterial Disease patients were divided into blood stasis group and damp heat group,and Common Carotid Artery Intima-media Thickness,Thickening of Common Carotid Artery Intima-media Thickness,carotid artery plaque detection rate,plaque nature and the degree of carotid stenosis in each group were observed,and apply SPSS22.0 statistical system to describe and analyze the data statistically.Results: The Common Carotid Artery Intima-media Thickness in the damp-heat group was higher than that in the blood stasis group,the difference was statistically significant(P<0.05);Through Spearman correlation analysis,it was found that the Spearman correlation coefficient of CCA-IMT thickened and damp heat syndrome rs=0.294,P=0.023;Spearman correlation coefficient of Carotid artery moderate to severe stenosis and damp-heat syndrome rs=0.270,P=0.037.Conclusion: The thickening of CCA-IMT and moderate to severe carotid stenosis in DLEAD patients can be used as one of the important objective indicators of TCM syndrome differentiation.
