EFFECT OF RENAL DYSFUNCTION ON THE CARDIACVASCULAR SYSTEM. THE POSSIBILI TIES OF EARLY DIAGNOSIS OF THE RENAL DYSFUNCTION
The review is devoted to the discussion of modern concepts of the role of renal dysfunction in the development of chronic myocardial dysfunction in the context of cardio-renal syndrome (RVC) type 4. At the beginning of the review, the definition of cattle is given, general questions of pathogenesis and diagnosis of the disease are addressed. It is indicated that in patients with the initial stage of CKD, cardiovascular disorders are already registered which in the late stages of development of renal dysfunction are the leading causes of death and the true severity of the disease in patients with renal dysfunction is associated with an increased risk of cardiovascular events, rather than an achievement terminal renal failure and requiring renal replacement therapy. The progression of renal pathology leads to damage to the heart through various mechanisms and factors, both traditional and non-traditional, some of which, at the culmination of the renal continuum, are the result of the dialysis procedure itself in patients with terminal renal dysfunction. Mechanisms for the development of congestive heart failure in type 4 cattle include pressure overload (arterial hypertension) and volume (anemia, edematous syndrome), which increase in proportion to the decrease in renal function. Increase in blood pressure, changes in intracardial hemodynamics, deterioration of arterial compliance contribute to the acceleration of cardiovascular events. The role of laboratory predictors of renal dysfunction in the progression of cardiovascular disorders is discussed. The general approaches of echocardiographic visualization of the heart cavities and its importance in the diagnosis of cardiovascular diseases are discussed. Special attention is paid to the development of pulmonary arterial hypertension, changes in the left and right ventricle of the myocardium with renal dysfunction
LOVASTATIN EFFECT ON VASCULAR REMODELING AND MYOCARDIAL SYSTOLIC AND DIASTOLIC FUNCTION IN PATIENTS WITH STABLE ISCHEMIC HEART DISEASE
Aim. To study effect of 12-month therapy with lovastatin on vascular remodeling, systolic and diastolic functions of left ventricle (LV).Material and methods. 84 patients (54,3±6,5 y.o.) with ischemic heart disease (IHD) and dislipoproteinemia were involved in the study. Patients were randomized into 2 groups. Patients of the 1st group (n=44) received lovastatin (20-60 mg daily) in addition to hypolipidemic diet and standard therapy. Patients of the 2nd group (n=39) were treated with diet and standard therapy only. Lipid spectrum and transaminase blood levels estimation, carotid duplex ultrasonography, echocardiography were performed initially and after 12 months of treatment.Results. Decrease of carotid intima-media thickness, delay of increasing of LV myocardium mass index, increase of LV ejection fraction was observed in 12 months of treatment in patients of the 1st group. There were not any changes of LV diastolic function in both groups.The conclusion. In patients with IHD and dislipoproteinemia 12 month lovastatin therapy prevents of vascular remodeling and improves LV systolic function
What is the effect of subepithelial lesions of the esophagus on esophageal motility?
© 2022 European Review for Medical and Pharmacological Sciences. All rights reserved.OBJECTIVE: Esophageal motility is regulated both by coordinated stimulation and inhibition of the circular and longitudinal muscle layers of the esophagus. Although there are many diseases known to have an effect on esophageal motility, the effect of subepithelial lesions (SELs) of the esophagus on esophageal motility, which is often detected incidentally, remains still unclear. The aim of this study is to reveal the effect of SELs of the esophagus on esophageal motility evaluating it by high-resolution manometry (HRM). PATIENTS AND METHODS: A total of 32 patients with SELs in the esophagus and 12 healthy individuals were included. All patients and controls included in the study underwent HRM using a Unisensor UniTip High Resolution catheter (Laborie, Amsterdam, Netherlands) and endosonographic examination. RESULTS: The mean age was 52.60±15.56 years (range: 23-79) and the average body mass index (BMI) was 26.63±4.71 kg/m2. Gender, height, weight, and BMI measurements, smoking status, alcohol use, and DM status did not statistically differ significantly between the groups (p>0.05). Of 32 patients with SELs, 65.6% (n=21) had lesions originating in the muscularis propria, while 34.4% had lesions originating in the submucosa. The rate of abnormal motility both in the supine and in upright positions of patients with SELs was found to be significantly higher than in the control group (p=0.001, p2 cm), the probability of abnormal HRM results increased. CONCLUSIONS: SELs of the esophagus have pathological effects on esophageal motility, mainly ineffective esophageal motility disorder
THE CLINICAL SIGNIFICANCE OF THE DAILY MONITORING OF HOLTER ECG IN CHRONIC GLOMERULONEPHRITIS AT THE PREDIALYSIS STAGE OF THE DISEASE
This article presents the results of our own research: comprehensive clinical and laboratory examinations, including data from the daily Holter monitoring of the electrocardiogram (DMEKG) in 169 patients with chronic glomerulonephritis at the predialysis stage of the disease. According to the DMEKG, 60.3% of the persons examined by us had episodes of supraventricular group extrasystoles, and ventricular group extrasystoles in 28.9%. In addition, 11.2% of patients had atrial ventricular blockade (incomplete / partial), 8.8% had atrial fibrillation and painless ischemia in an amount of from 1 to 3 episodes per day in 14.7%. Depending on the average heart rate (HR) according to the DMEKG, patients with chronic glomerulonephritis were divided into two subgroups. Subgroup “A” included 38 patients with heart rate less than or equal to 70 beats / min, in subgroup “B” — 131 patients with a heart rate of more than 70 beats / min. With equal values of uric acid, total cholesterol cholesterol, HDL cholesterolcholesterol, TG, plasma creatinine and blood fibrinogen in subgroup “B” there was a statistically significant increase in LDL cholesterol concentration(3.58 (2.74; 5.54) mmol / l vs. 2, 82 (2.30; 3.86) mmol / l; p <0.05) and a decrease in the calculated GFR (70.4 (48.8; 96.3) ml / min vs. 85.7 (31.5; 103,1) ml / min; p <0.05) compared with subgroup “A”. In the subgroup “B” a tendency was observed to increase the degree of daily excretion of protein with urine. The data obtained confirm the fact that the conduct of the DMEKG with the analysis of heart rate is of significant clinical importance for the diagnosis of cardiovascular disorders and the p revention of cardiovascular complications in chronic glomerulonephritis at the predialysis stage of the disease
STRATIFICATION OF NEPHROCEREBRAL AND CARDIOVASCULAR RISK IN CHRONIC GLOMERULONEPHRITIS (LITERATURE REVIEW)
This article analyzes the literature data concerning the origin and progression of cerebrovascular and cardiac diseases in renal dysfunction. Cardiovascular diseases and chronic kidney disease have common “traditional” risk factors, while the population growth in patients with renal impairment is currently mainly due to secondary renal damage in socially important diseases such as obesity, hypertension, atherosclerosis, type 2 diabetes, ischemic heart disease and chronic heart failure. The presented data of scientific researches testify to the direct correlation correlation between the decrease of the renal function and the increased risk of cardioand cerebrovascular diseases and death, irrespective of other risk factors. Obesity and associated biological substrates are independent risk factors for persistent impairment of kidney function and an increase in the body mass index causes direct damage to the kidneys, due to the disrupted synthesis of fat cytokines by various cytokines with nephrotoxic action, and also mediated — by inducing the development of diabetes mellitus 2 type and arterial hypertension, which are the most frequent risk factors for chronic kidney disease and cardiovascular diseases. The presented data on the role of endothelial dysfunction in impaired renal function, which contributes to the formation of atherosclerosis, and the increase in the severity of the atherosclerotic process contributes to an increase in the sever ity of renal failure. Literature data on the value of the heart rate are also presented. The increase in the heart rate can lead to atherosclerotic densification of the arteries, which is associated with an increase in the rate of spread of the pulse wave with a violation of the mechanisms of autoregulation of the blood flow in the brain and kidneys
Prevalence of cardiac beta-myosin heavy chain gene mutations in patients with hypertrophic cardiomyopathy [Erratum in: J Mol Med. vol 83, pg 837, 2005]
Hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM) is a frequent, autosomal-dominant cardiac disease and manifests predominantly as left ventricular hypertrophy. Mutations in the cardiac beta-myosin heavy chain gene (MYH7) are responsible for the disease in about 30% of cases where mutations were identified. We clinically evaluated a large group of 147 consecutive HCM patients from three cardiology centers in Germany, Poland, and Kyrgyzstan according to the same protocol. The DNA of the patients was systematically analyzed in the whole coding region of the MYH7 gene using PCR, single-strand conformation polymorphism analysis, and automated sequencing. Eleven different missense mutations (including seven novel ones) in 11 unrelated patients were identified, showing a mutation frequency of 7.5% in the study population. We further examined the families of five patients (three of German, one of Polish, and one of Kyrgyz origin) with 32 individuals in total. We observed a clear, age-dependent penetrance with onset of disease symptoms in the fourth decade of life. Genotype-phenotype correlations were different for each mutation, whereas the majority was associated with an intermediate/malign phenotype. In conclusion, we report a systematic molecular screening of the complete MYH7 gene in a large group of consecutive HCM patients, leading to a genetic diagnosis in 38 individuals. Information about the genotype in an individual from one family could be very useful for the clinician, especially when dealing with healthy relatives in doubt of their risk about developing HCM. The increasing application of genetic screening and the increasing knowledge about genotype-phenotype correlations will hopefully lead to an improved clinical management of HCM patients
