Abstract Funding Acknowledgements Grant of the Grant Agency of Charles University and grant of the Czech Health Research council Introduction Over 50% of patients treated by chronic haemodialysis programme die of cardiovascular diseases. Changes of heart structure and function can be detected by echocardiography. The most frequent changes are left ventricle hypertrophy (LVH) and its diastolic dysfunction. One of the considered contributing mechanisms is the hyperkinetic circulation. Purpose The aim of this study was to analyse the effect of high flow arteriovenous fistula (AVF) on eft ventricular hypertrophy and diastolic function. Materials and methods We included 30 patients with a high-flow arteriovenous fistula into the study, indicated for AVF blood flow reduction because of heart failure or hand ischemia. All the patients underwent echocardiographic examination and ultrasonographic measurement of AVF blood flow before and 6 weeks after the surgery. Results The AVF banding led to significant reduction of Qa (from 2977 ± 1408 to 1295 ± 610 mL/min; p ˂ 10-6, accompanied by significant decrease of cardiac index (from 4.34 ± 1.09 to 3.56 ± 0.90 L/min.m2). These findings were accompanied by significant reduction of left ventricle mass index (from 125 ± 31 to 116 ± 32 g/m2; p = 0.04) and by improvement of diastolic dysfunction grade (from 1.66 ± 0.67 to 1.14 ± 0.95; p = 0.03). The maximum velocity of tricuspid regurgitation decreased (from 3.1 ± 0.4 to 2.7 ± 0.5), and so did the left atrium volume index (from 47 ± 14 to 42 ± 15 mL/m2; p = 0.01). Conclusions LVH and diastolic dysfunction are frequent in haemodialysis patients; hyperkinetic circulation caused by high-flow arteriovenous fistula is one of the significant contributing mechanisms. Surgical reduction of AVF blood flow improved diastolic function of the left ventricle and reduced the hypertrophy in our patient population. AVF flow volume should be always considered during cardiological examination of haemodialysis patients.

Цель исследования - выявление взаимосвязи между показателями вариабельности сердечного ритма (ВСР), кровяным давлением и гемодинамическими функциями у женщин, страдающих гипертонической болезнью (ГБ) и находящихся на медикаментозной терапии (ГБ-1), либо в дополнение к этому, проходящих регулярные курсы кинезитерапии (ГБ-2). Методика. Наблюдения проведены на 72 женщинах, страдающих артериальной гипертензией II стадии. В группу ГБ-1 вошли 37 женщин с ГБ, находящихся на медикаментозной терапии, в группу ГБ-2 - 35 женщин с ГБ, которые, помимо медикаментозной терапии, регулярно проходили на протяжении 2-3 лет по 3-4 полуторамесячных курса кинезитерапии (управляемые умеренные физические нагрузки). Для изучения гемодинамики был использован датчик динамического рассеяния света (miniature Dynamic Light Scattering - mDLS) от Elfi-Tech (Rehovot, Israel), измеряющий сигналы, инициированные кожным кровотоком, и использующий методику разложения сигнала на частотные компоненты, связанные с разными гемодинамическими источниками. Из пульсовой компоненты mDLS сигнала извлекалась информация о вариабельности RR-интервалов и рассчитывались индикаторы вариабельности сердечного ритма. Введен показатель «гемодинамический индекс» (Hemodynamic Index - HI). Зависимость HI от скорости сдвига интерпретируется путем сопоставления каждой полосе частот определенной скорости сдвига (HI1 - низкочастотный, HI2 - промежуточный, HI3 - высокочастотный). Использованы следующие относительные (RHI, Relative Hemodynamic Index) и осцилляторные (OHI, Oscillatory Hemodynamic Indexes) гемодинамические индексы: нейрологический (NEUR), Майера (MAYER), дыхательный (RESP) и пульсовой (PULSE). ВСР показатели включали: HR (Heart Rate), PWR (Power) - общую мощность колебаний, LF (Low Frequency), HF (High Frequency), SDNN (Standard Deviation of the Normal-to-Normal), RMSSD (Root Mean Square of the Successive Differences), а также индексы: CVI (Cardiac Vagal Index) и CSI (Cardiac Sympathetic Index). Результаты. У женщин, находящихся исключительно на медикаментозной терапии (ГБ-1), выявляются отрицательные взаимосвязи LF и LF/HF с систолическим, средним и пульсовым давлением. При ГБ-2 проявляются отрицательные связи PWR, LF, HF с пульсовым давлением. При ГБ-1 обнаружены положительные взаимосвязи между HR и гемодинамическими индексами HI1, RHI2 и отрицательная взаимосвязь с RHI3, а также между RMSSD и RHI3 и между HF и HI1/HI3. У пациенток ГБ-2 обнаружена отрицательная корреляция SDNN и RHI1, а также PWR и RHI1; положительные взаимосвязи между PWR и HI2, HI3, RHI2, HF и RHI3 и LF/HF с HI1/HI3; отрицательные связи HF c HI1/HI3 и с RHI1, а также между LF/HF и RHI3, CSI и RHI3. У больных ГБ-1 имеются прямые связи между SDNN, PWR, LF, HF, CVI и NEUR_HI1, что свидетельствует о действии этих факторов на эндотелиальный кровоток (HI1). В группе ГБ-2 установлено наличие лишь положительных связей между LF, HF и NEUR_HI3. У больных ГБ-1 на уровень АД влияют все без исключения осцилляторные ритмы, которые могут оказывать как отрицательное (с MAYER_HI1, PULSE_HI2), так и положительное (MAYER_HI2, RESP_HI3) влияние. У больных ГБ-2 взаимосвязи АД с осцилляторными индексами не обнаружены. Заключение. Уменьшение в группе ГБ-2 по сравнению с больными группы ГБ-1 числа факторов, влияющих на АД и гемодинамику, носит более совершенный и благоприятный характер, что и обеспечивает более быструю и устойчивую нормализацию артериального давления. Aim. To study the relationship between heart rate variability (HRV), blood pressure and hemodynamic functions in women with essential hypertension (EH) receiving a drug therapy alone (EH-1) or in combination with regular courses of kinesitherapy (EH-2). Methods. The study included 72 women with EH. The EH-1 group consisted of 37 women with stage II arterial hypertension. The EH-2 group consisted of 35 women with stage II arterial hypertension who underwent 3-4 1.5-month courses of kinesitherapy (controlled moderate physical activity) on a regular basis for 2-3 years. Hemodynamics was studied with a miniature Dynamic Light Scattering (mDLS) sensor from Elfi-Tech (Rehovot, Israel), which measures signals initiated by the skin blood flow by decomposing the signal into frequency components associated with different hemodynamic sources. Information on the RR interval variability was extracted from the pulse component of mDLS signal, and indicators of heart rate variability were calculated. A Hemodynamic Index (HI) was introduced. The HI dependence on shear rate was interpreted by matching each frequency band with a specific shear rate (HI1, low-frequency; HI2, intermediate; HI3, high-frequency). The following relative (RHI, Relative Hemodynamic Index) and oscillatory (OHI, Oscillatory Hemodynamic Indexes) indexes were used: neurological (NEUR), Mayer (MAYER), respiratory (RESP), and pulse (PULSE) ones. The HRV indexes included HR (Heart Rate), PWR (Power, total oscillation power), LF (Low Frequency), HF (High Frequency), SDNN (Standard Deviation of the Normal-to-Normal), RMSSD (Root Mean Square of the Successive Differences). CVI (Cardiac Vagal Index), and CSI (Cardiac Sympathetic Index). Results. In women who were on drug therapy alone (EH-1), negative relationships were found for LF and LF/HF with systolic, mean and pulse pressure. For EH-2, PWR, LF, and HF negatively correlated with pulse pressure. For EH-1, HR positively correlated with the hemodynamic indices HI1 and RHI2 and negatively correlated with RHI3; RMSSD negatively correlated with RHI3; and HF negatively correlated with HI1/HI3. For patients with EH-2, negative correlations were observed for SDNN and RHI1, PWR and RHI1; positive correlations were found between PWR and HI2; HI3, RHI2, HF and RHI3; and between LF/HF and HI1/HI3. HF negatively correlated with HI1/HI3 and with RHI1. LF/HF negatively correlated with RHI3, and CSI negatively correlated with RHI3. In patients with EH-1, SDNN, PWR, LF, HF, CVI, and NEUR_HI1 were directly related, which indicated an effect of these factors on the endothelial blood flow (HI1). In the EH-2 group, only positive correlations were found between LF, HF, and NEUR_HI3. In EH-1 patients, all oscillatory rhythms influenced BP; this influence could be both negative (for MAYER_HI1, PULSE_HI2) and positive (for MAYER_HI2, RESP_HI3). In EH-2 patients, no relationship was found between blood pressure and oscillatory indices. Conclusion. The smaller number of factors influencing blood pressure and hemodynamics in the EH-2 group compared to the EH-1 group was more beneficial and favorable, which ensured faster and steadier normalization of blood pressure.

Purpose: The emerging evidence has recently shown an evident dependence between recently identified salusin peptides and atherosclerosis, and their important roles as endogenous modulators of atherogenesis. It was reported that the development of atherosclerosis could also be affected by endogenous salusin- β overproduction in vascular lesions. Materials/Methods: This prospective cohort study was conducted in two groups of children: HT – 58 patients with essential hypertension (HT); R - 30 participants with white-coat HT (R). We analysed the relationship between serum salusin- α and salusin- β levels and ADMA, SDMA and hs- CRP in children and adolescents with essential hypertension. Results: Serum level of salusin- ɑ in each sample was under the sensitivity of method. Serum level of salusin-β was statistically significantly higher in hypertension group when compared to the reference group (p<0.05) and correlated positively with serum hs-CRP [rho=0.47; p<0.01] and asymmetric dimethylarginine (ADMA) [rho=0.32; p<0.05]. There was no significant association between salusin-β and symmetric dimethylarginine (SDMA) [rho=0.27; p>0.05]. Conclusion: This preliminary study showed that the concentration of salusin-β is associated with circulating level of hs-CRP and ADMA in teenagers with hypertension. Further studies are needed to find out if salusin-β levels may indicate for endothelial dysfunction and form the basis for the development of new therapeutic agent.

This paper investigates further the relationship between the initial bone clearance of a bone-seeking radioisotope or labeled substance and the bone blood flow. The bone blood flow of rats was modified over the widest possible range of physiological values by heating and cooling their hindlimbs. Osseous blood flow was measured by the arteriolar trapping of labeled microspheres of 15 micrometer diameter injected into the left ventricle. The plasma clearances of 45Ca and 99 m Tc by bone were measured 10 min after the intravenous injection of radiocalcium and of 99 m technetium pyrophosphate. The extraction ratio for 45Ca over the 10-min interval (45Ca clearance/bone plasma flow) was 0.60 for low blood flows, 0.40 for blood flows at rest, and 0.25 for high values of flow. The data for 99 m Tc were, respectively, 0.68, 0.34, and 0.22. Initial bone clearances of either substance should not be used to measure the increases in bone blood flow over the values at rest.
