Table 1:
Comparisons of age, gender, past medical history and general data of the two groups of patients (Each n=60)
| General data | Observation group n(%) | Control group n(%) | x2 | P |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Gender (male) | 25 (47.8) | 28 (52.2) | 0.304 | 0.581 |
| Age (>45 yr old) | 44 (49.4) | 45 (50.6) | 0.043 | 0.835 |
| Occupation (with) | 19 (50.0) | 19 (50.0) | 0.000 | 1.000 |
| Degree of education (above high school) | 26 (53.1) | 23 (46.9) | 0.310 | 0.577 |
| Smoking history (Yes) | 14 (48.3) | 15 (51.7) | 0.045 | 0.831 |
| Drinking history (Yes) | 18 (54.5) | 15 (45.5) | 0.527 | 0.468 |
| Hypertension history (Yes) | 38 (51.4) | 36 (48.6) | 0.141 | 0.707 |
| Diabetes history (Yes) | 24 (64.9) | 13 (35.1) | 4.728 | 0.030* |
| History of coronary heart disease (Yes) | 13 (56.5) | 10 (43.5) | 0.616 | 0.433 |
| Cerebral ischemic stroke (Yes) | 43 (48.9) | 45 (51.1) | 0.170 | 0.680 |
Notes: There is no statistical significance between the two groups in terms of age, gender, smoking and drinking history, history of hypertension, history of coronary heart disease and stroke type (P>0.05). In observation group, the number of patients complicated with diabetes is significantly larger than that in control group, and the difference is statistically significant
