Abstract Objective: To evaluate remodeling of the femoral artery and its correlation with neutrophil to lymphocyte ratio(NLR) in patients of type 2 diabetes mellitus(T2DM) by high-frequency ultrasound. Methods: Eighty-eight patients with T2DM were divided into group B(48 cases, the course≤10 years) and group C(40 cases, the course>10 years). 36 healthy volunteers were recruited as the control group(group A). The intimal medial thickness(IMT), total vessel area(TVA), lumen area(LA) were measured and vascular remodeling types were determined. NLR was calculated and obtained from the peripheral blood routine examination. Results: IMT and NLR of the femoral in group B and C were higher, has significant difference. And IMT and NLR of the femoral in group C were higher than that in group B(all P<0.05). RI in group B was higher than that of group A (P<0.05). RI in group C was lower than that of group B(P<0.05). The vascular remodeling rates in group B and C were higher than that in group A(all P<0.05), and in group C was higher than that in group B(P<0.05). The positive remodeling rate of group B was higher than that of other two groups, and the difference were significant. The rate of negative remodeling in group C was higher than that of group A and B(all P<0.05). Vessels without remodeling was predominant in group A. The rate of negative remodeling was higher than the rate of positive remodeling in group C. The rate of positive remodeling was higher than the rate of negative remodeling in group B. IMT was positively correlative with NLR(r=0.56, P<0.05). Conclusion: The atherosclerosis, vascular remodeling of the femoral artery and the relationship with NLR in the patients of T2DM can be evaluated conveniently and accurately by high-frequency ultrasonography with an important clinical value.
