Homocysteine
is a sulfur-containing amino acid, which is an item of blood test. The normal range is 5-15μmol/L. Homocysteine may be caused by malnutrition, H-type hypertension, coronary atherosclerotic heart disease, etc. Blood lipids include total cholesterol, triglycerides, high-density lipoprotein cholesterol and low-density lipoprotein cholesterol, and do not include homocysteine. Therefore, homocysteine is not high.
Patients need to further do trace element examination, blood pressure measurement, coronary angiography and other examinations to determine the cause and determine the treatment plan.
