Концептуальные подходы к поиску эффективного лечения новой коронавирусной инфекции на разных этапах

The article attempts to analyze the change in philosophy in approaches to the treatment of COVID-19 that have occurred in recent months, based on published research and their own experience in the treatment of a new coronavirus infection at the medical research and education center of Moscow state University. Emphasis is placed on the rationale for the phased use of different types of therapy. The reasons for using spironolactone in patients with COVID-19 as a drug for etiotropic and pathogenetic therapy are discussed in detail. The authors conclude that the use of antiviral drugs in combination with drugs that prevent the entry of the SARS-CoV-2 virus into cells from the first days of the disease should be supplemented with pre-emptive anti-inflammatory therapy that interrupts the progression of the disease. The parallel use of anticoagulants that reduce the risk of thrombotic and thromboembolic complications.В статье проведена попытка проанализировать изменение философии в подходах к лечению COVID-19, которые произошли в течение последних месяцев, на основе опубликованных научных исследований и собственного опыта лечения новой коронавирусной инфекции в Медицинском научно-образовательном центре МГУ (МНОЦ МГУ), который в разгар эпидемии работал как COVID-госпиталь. Делается акцент на обосновании этапного использования разных видов терапии. Подробно обсуждаются основания для применения у пациентов с COVID-19 спиронолактона как препарата для этиотропной и патогенетической терапии. Авторы приходят к выводу, что применение с самых первых дней болезни противовирусных препаратов в комбинации с препаратами, препятствующими входу вируса SARS-CoV-2 в клетки, должно быть дополнено упреждающей противовоспалительной терапией, прерывающей прогрессирование болезни, и параллельным использованием антикоагулянтов, снижающих риск тромботических и тромбоэмболических осложнений

Возможности клинического применения препарата эзетимиба Отрио (АО "АКРИХИН", Россия) у пациентов высокого и очень высокого сердечно-сосудистого риска, не достигших целевых значений показателей липидного обмена. Заключение Совета экспертов

This Conclusion of the Board of experts is devoted to the analysis of the evidence base, the position in modern clinical guidelines, the efficacy and safety analysis as well as the options of combined therapy with statins and ezetimibe (Otrio, JSC “AKRIKHIN”) in various categories of patients in routine clinical practice in theRussian Federation. Cardiovascular diseases (CVD) continue to lead in the structure of morbidity and mortality inRussia. Hypercholesterolemia is one of the main modifiable risk factors for CVD. Administration of HMGCo-A-reductase inhibitors (statins) remains the basis for the prevention and treatment of the main complications of atherosclerosis, but the achievement of target levels of LDL-C on of statin monotherapy in Russian practice among different categories of risk does not exceed 50%. Proportion of patients (up to 12%) does not tolerate statin therapy, which requires the search for alternative therapies. To optimize the control of the level of LDL-C, combination therapy with statins and ezetimibe is used. Ezetimibe is an effective lipid-lowering drug, an inhibitor of intestinal absorption of cholesterol, which was investigated in many international and Russian studies, the results of which have demonstrated good tolerability, safety and efficacy (reduction of LDL-C levels by 18% in monotherapy). It was noted that the combined therapy with low/medium doses of statins and ezetimibe effectively reduces the level of LDL-C by 44-53%, which is comparable to the effect of high doses of statins and reduces CV risk in patients with CKD and ACS. Otrio (INN Ezetimib) tablets 10 mg ( JSC “AKRIKHIN”,Russia) has demonstrated bioequivalence to the original drug Ezetrol tablets 10 mg (Schering-plough Labo N. V,Belgium). Broad use of a new generic product Otrio in combination with different statins will significantly increase the frequency of achievement of target lipid levels in patients with high and very high CV risk, including patients with chronic renal failure, type 2 diabetes and in patients with high hypercholesterolemia (LDL-C > 5 mmol/l) and, ultimately, reduce the burden of CV disease and mortality in Russia.Настоящее Заключение Совета экспертов посвящено анализу доказательной базы, месту в современных клинических рекомендациях, анализу эффективности и безопасности, а также возможностям комбинированной терапии статинами и препаратом эзетимиба (Отрио, АО «АКРИХИН») у различных категорий пациентов в повседневной клинической практике в Российской Федерации. Сердечно-сосудистые заболевания (ССЗ) продолжают лидировать в структуре заболеваемости и смертности в РФ. Одним из главных модифицируемых факторов риска ССЗ является гиперхолестеринемия. Основа профилактики и лечения основных осложнений атеросклероза - терапия ингибиторами ГМГ-КоА-редуктазы (статинами), однако достижение целевых уровней ХС ЛНП на фоне монотерапии статинами в российской практике в различных категориях риска не превышает 50%. Часть больных (до 12%) не переносит терапию статинами, что требует поиска альтернативных схем терапии. Для оптимизации контроля уровня холестерина ХС ЛНП применяют комбинированную терапию статинами и эзетимибом. Эзетимиб - эффективный гиполипидемический препарат, ингибитор кишечной абсорбции ХС, хорошо изученный в международных и российских исследованиях, результаты которых показали хорошую переносимость, безопасность и эффективность (снижение уровня ХС ЛНП на 18% в монотерапии). Отмечено, что комбинированная терапия низкими/средними дозами статинов и эзетимибом за счет двух синергичных механизмов действия (концепция «двойного ингибирования» ХС) позволяет весьма эффективно снижать уровень ХС ЛНП на 44-53%, что сопоставимо с эффектом высоких доз статинов, а также уменьшает сердечно-сосудистый риск у больных с хронической почечной недостаточностью (ХПН) и ОКС. Препарат Отрио (МНН Эзетимиб), таблетки 10 мг (АО «АКРИХИН», Россия) биоэквивалентен оригинальному препарату Эзетрол®, таблетки 10 мг (Шеринг-Плау Лабо Н В, Бельгия). Широкое применение генерического препарата Отрио в комбинации с различными статинами позволит значительно увеличить частоту достижения целевых уровней липидов у больных высокого и очень высокого сердечно-сосудистого риска, в том числе у пациентов с ХПН, СД 2 типа и у лиц с высокой гиперхолестеринемией (ХС ЛНП >5 ммоль/л) и, в тем самым, уменьшить бремя сердечно-сосудистых заболеваний и смертности в РФ

Possibilities of clinical use of ezetimibe Otrio (JSC "AKRIKHIN", Russia) in patients with high and very high cardiovascular risk who have not reached the target values of lipid metabolism. Conclusion of the Board of experts

Sodium-glucose cotransporter 2 inhibitors at the intersection of cardiovascular, renal and metabolic care: an integrated and multidisciplinary approach to patient-centered care

PURPOSE OF REVIEW: The management of individuals who live with type 2 diabetes requires an integrated and multifaceted approach. RECENT FINDINGS: Sodium-glucose cotransporter 2 inhibitors effectively prevent and treat cardiorenal complications in the presence of type 2 diabetes. They also reduce death and disease progression in those with established heart failure (with reduced ejection fraction) in the absence of diabetes. SUMMARY: Close collaborations between primary care physicians, cardiovascular specialists, endocrinologists and nephrologists are necessary to optimize cardiovascular, renal and metabolic risk reduction in their shared patients

Iron deficiency in Russia heart failure patients. Observational cross-sectional multicenter study

Aim    To evaluate the prevalence of iron deficiency (ID) in Russian patients with heart failure (HF).Material and methods    Iron metabolism variables were studied in 498 (198 women, 300 men) patients with HF. Data were evaluated at admission for HF (97 %) or during an outpatient visit (3 %). ID was determined according to the European Society of Cardiology Guidelines.Results    83.1 % of patients had ID; only 43.5 % of patients with ID had anemia. Patients with ID were older: 70.0 [63.0;79.0] vs. 66.0 years [57.0;75.2] (p=0.009). The number of patients with ID increased in parallel with the increase in HF functional class (FC). Among patients with ID, fewer people were past or current alcohol users (p=0.002), and a greater number of patients had atrial fibrillation (60.1 vs. 45.2 %, p=0.016). A multiple logistic regression showed that more severe HF (HF FC) was associated with a higher incidence of ID detection, whereas past alcohol use was associated with less pronounced ID. An increase in N-terminal pro-brain natriuretic peptide (NT-proBNP) by 100 pg/ml was associated with an increased likelihood of ID (odds ratio, 1.006, 95 % confidence interval: 1.002-1.011, p=0.0152).Conclusion    The incidence rate of HF patients is high in the Russian Federation (83.1 %). Only 43.5 % of these patients had anemia. The prevalence of ID in the study population increased with increases in HF FC and NT-proBNP
