Aim: to investigate relationship between arterial hypertension (AH) and risk factors / subclinical damage of target organs in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus (DM2). Methods. We included into this clinical epidemiological study 528 patients with DM2 (30.5 % men, 69.5 % women; mean age 54.1±0.3 years; 80.3 % with AH, 19.7 % without AH), who answered questions of the ARIC study questionnaire related to risk factors. Also, we studied features of target organ damage and laboratory indicators. Results. In comparison with normotensives patients with AH more frequently had ischemic heart disease (12.7±1.6 % vs. 5.8±2.3 %, p<0.05), chronic heart failure (CHF) (30.9±2.2 % vs. 9.6±2.9 %, p<0.001), atherosclerosis of vessels of lower extremities (69.8±2.2 % vs. 53.8±4.9 %, p<0.01) and cerebral vessels (50.9±2.4 % vs. 28.8±4.4 %, p<0.001), history of stroke (5.0±1.1 % vs. 0 %, p<0.05), hypertonic angiopathy (14.5±1.8 % vs. 6.5±2.5 %, p<0.05), low level of high density lipoprotein (87.3±2.2 % vs. 74.5±6.4 %, p<0.05), electro- and echocardiographic signs of left ventricular hypertrophy (75.6±2.1 % vs. 45.4±5.1 %, p<0.001; 61.1±2.6 % vs. 24.4±4.7 %, p<0.001, respectively), lowering of left ventricular ejection fraction (12.5±1.7 % vs. 7.8±2.8 %, p<0.001), diastolic disfunction of the left ventricle (52.6±2.7 % vs. 23.2±4.7 %, p<0.001), atherosclerosis of the aorta (38.0±2.6 % vs. 20.7±4.5 %, p<0.01), lowering of the ankle-brachial index (left – 29.8±2.3 % vs. 14.9±3.5 %, p<0.01; right – 31.5±2.3 % vs. 9.9±3.0 %, p<0.001, respectively), increased intima-media thickness of the right carotid artery (84.6±5.0 % vs. 60.0±11.0 %, p<0.05). Conclusion. In patients with type 2 diabetes and AH, in order to develop strategy of macro- and microvascular complications prevention, it is necessary to conduct early screening of risk factors and subclinical damage of target organs.

Aim.Objective assessment of cardiovascular risk (CVR) in patients with arterial hypertension (AH), who first contact with primary care setting.Material and methods. 300 patients (age 40-65 years) with sustained increase in arterial pressure and first seek medical attention were included in the study. All patients underwent medical examination, history taking to identify risk factors, blood pressure measurement and anthropometric research, biochemical blood assay to estimate levels of total cholesterol, triglycerides, low-density lipoprotein, high-density lipoprotein, glucose. Based on the specified parameters, the risk was determined by SCORE (Systematic Coronary Risk Evaluation). After the risk assessment, all patients underwent an echo-cardiography, duplex ultrasonography screening of the brachiocephalic arteries and determination of microalbuminuria to detect target organ damage. According to results of a complex survey, the risk was reclassified based on the presence of target organ damage.Results.The study showed that patients with sustained AH who first seek medical attention have a large number of risk factors and their combinations, among which the most common are dyslipidemia (89,3%), smoking (37,7%) and obesity (28,3%). Patients with AH who first seek medical attention without clinical signs of atherosclerosis often have various disorders of target organs, such as left ventricular hypertrophy — 67,3%, thickening of carotid intima-media complex — 46,3%, atherosclerotic plaques in carotid arteries — 34,7%, microalbuminuria — 25,3%, as well as different combinations thereof. After a complex examination, the CVR profile of patients changes increases. According to SCORE 60% of patients with low and mean risk is reclassified to high risk.Conclusion.One of the most important tasks of health care system in Russia is to increase the efficiency of the CVR stratification systems, as well as to develop a new standards of examination of patients with AH on an outpatient stage, in order to reduce cardiovascular morbidity and mortality.

The aim of this study was to assess the basic biochemical and clinical characteristics of patients with hypertension and type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM), office blood pressure (BP) and 24-h BP profile, their risk factors and associated comorbidities. Compared with non-diabetics, hypertensive patients with T2DM were older, with a longer duration of hypertension (5.9 vs. 4.7 years), greater office blood pressure and ambulatory BP values, increased incidence of multiple risk factors, target organ damage and cardiovascular disease. Biochemical data in hypertension with T2DM revealed significantly high levels of LDL cholesterol, triglycerides, creatinine, micro- and macro-albuminuria and a reduced estimated glomerular filtration rate. The presence of diabetes was associated with obesity, represented by a BMI ]30 kg/m2 (OR 2.08 [95% CI 1.26-3.45], p = 0.004), abdominal obesity (OR 1.85 [95% CI 1.11-3.04], p = 0.016), high LDL cholesterol (OR 2.02 [95% CI 1.22-3.35], p = 0.006) and high triglycerides (OR 1.86 [95% CI 1.11-3.11], p = 0.017).

One of the consequences of long-term BP increase is damage of internal organs, the so-called target organs (target organ damage, end organ damage). These include heart, brain, kidneys, vessels. Heart damage in arterial hypertension may be manifested by left ventricular hypertrophy, angina pectoris, myocardial infarction, chronic heart failure and sudden death, brain damage - by thrombosis and hemorrhages, hypertensive encephalopathy and cerebral lacunae, kidneys - microalbuminuria, proteinuria, chronic renal failure, vascular involvement - lesions of retinal vessels, carotid arteries, aorta (aneurysm).
