【 摘 要 】

Objectives: This study aimed to determine the association of interleukin (IL)-10 and adiponectin (Ad) levels with the angiographic severity of coronary artery disease (CAD). Methods: In this case–control study, the study population included 50 patients with angiographically proven CAD as the case group and 50 apparently healthy age and sex-matched adults as a control group. The severity of CAD was assessed by SYNTAX scores. Serum Ad levels and IL-10 were measured using ELISA-based kits. The levels of Ad and IL-10 were associated with angiographic severity of CAD. P < 0.05 was considered statistically significant. Results: Cases had significantly lower Ad level (1.89 ± 1.18 vs. 2.59 ± 1.48, P = 0.0003) and significantly higher IL-10 level (8.96 ± 6.84 vs. 3.5 ± 3.57, P < 0.0001) as compared to controls. There was a significant correlation between the levels of Ad and IL-10 (r = 0.315, P = 0.026). There was a significant negative correlation between the Ad and angiographic stenosis of CAD (r = ‒0.939, P < 0.001). Both Ad and IL-10 showed a significant association with the severity of CAD in terms of SYNTAX score. Conclusion: Patients with CAD had lower Ad levels and higher IL-10 levels. Ad levels showed a significant decrease with increasing coronary artery stenosis. Both the markers (Ad and IL-10) showed significant association with the severity of CAD, thereby signifying their role as a marker for CAD.
