The study was undertaken to examine the specific features of the lipid spectrum in patients with metabolic disorders in the absence or presence of arterial hypertension (AH) and type 2 diabetes mellitus (DM) The study covered 176 patients with metabolic disorders, 138 patients were diagnosed as having AH, of them 39 patients had type 2 DM Clinical and laboratory studies involved the estimation of the body mass index, waist/hip ratio, and lipid spectrum All the patients were divided into 3 groups I) 38 without AH and type 2 DM, 2) 99 with isolated AH without type 2 DM, 3) 39 with AH and type 2 DM The higher severity of abdominal obesity was associated with enhanced dyslipidemia atherogemcity The development of AH m the presence of metabolic disorders was accompanied by higher total cholesterol levels, which may be considered as aggravated endothelial dysfunction Its concurrence with type 2 DM was attended by transformation of metabolic to diabetic dyslipidemia The study has yielded a new index that characterizes dyslipidemia atherogemcity in patients with metabolic disorders

Introduction: Diabetes mellitus (DM) is a non-communicable disease that has increased from year to year. Type 2 diabetes mellitus is not caused by lack of insulin secretion, but is caused by the failure of the body's cells to respond to the hormone insulin (insulin resistance). Insulin resistance was found to be a major contributor to atherogenic dyslipidemia. Dyslipidemia in DM risks 2 to 4 times higher than non-DM. Although dyslipidemia has a great risk for people with type 2 diabetes mellitus, this conventional risk factor only explains a portion (25%) of excess cardiovascular risk in type 2 DM. Discussion: In uncontrolled type 2 DM patients, LDL oxidation occurs faster which results from an increase in chronic blood glucose levels. Glycemic control as a determinant of DM progressivity is determined through HbA1c examination. HbA1c levels are associated with blood triglyceride levels. Meanwhile, triglyceride levels are associated with total cholesterol and HDL cholesterol levels. HbA1c levels are also associated with LDL cholesterol levels. Conclusion: There is a relationship between lipid profile and the progression of type 2 diabetes mellitus.   Keywords: type 2 diabetes mellitus, dyslipidemia, HbA1c, glycemic control, lipid profile

The actual problem of internal medicine is the managemen of patients with comorbid pathology. Arterial hypertension (AH) is determined in about quarter of the population in the world. Moreover, the coexistence of AH and type 2 diabetes mellitus (DM) connected with the increased risk of cardiovascular complications (CVC) compared with patients with AH. In principle dyslipidemia is the common link between AH and type 2 DM, which need the correction. No doubt that reduction of atherogenic and increase of anti atherogenic lipoproteins is necessary for persons with comorbid pathology. The objective of our study was the assessment of atorvastatin treatment in patients with AH, diabetic nephropathy and type 2 DM. We obtained 96 patients with AH, diabetic nephropathy and type 2 DM (І group), 25 persons with AH (ІІ group), 15 conditionally healthy individuals. Persons had CVC in the past. For patients from the І and ІІ group CVC were defined accordingly (4,97 ± 0,20) years and (4,10 ± 0,05) years ago (P = 0,0291). The duration of AH is (8,1 ± 0,2) years for the І group and (8,90 ± 0,13) years for the ІІ group. The levels of lipid profile spectrum were determined according to the methods of W. T. Friedewald. The results of investigation were analyzed with the help of Microsoft Excel 2016. Correction of lipid profile spectrum is the important part of multipurpose treatment for persons with coexistent pathology. All patients were treated by atorvastatin (10−40 mg/day) during 6 months in a complex therapy. The target levels of general cholesterol during 6 months were presented in 30 persons (31.91 %), low density lipoproteids – in 10 persons (10.64 %), high density lipoproteids – in 26 persons (27.66 %), triglycerides – in 34 persons (36.17 %) among patients with AH, diabetic nephropathy and type 2 DM. In conclusion, it is advisable to prescribe atorvastatin (10–40 mg/day) for correction of dyslipidemia, reduction of proatherogenic orientation, prevention of atherosclerotic process manifestation and cardiovascular complications in patients with AH with diabetic nephropathy and type 2 diabetes mellitus.

In recent years, the comorbid course of cardiovascular diseases, primarily arterial hypertension with impaired carbohydrate tolerance or type 2 diabetes mellitus, is becoming increasingly important in the developed countries of the world. In this regard, the need for a more detailed study of the general mechanisms of the development of arterial hypertension, pre-diabetes, and type 2 diabetes mellitus, namely inflammation, is increasing. There are many studies that investigate the role of inflammation in hypertension and associated glucometabolic disorders, but the exact mechanisms by which activated immune cells lead to the development and maintenance of these conditions remain to be seen. Obtaining new data in this area may contribute to a deeper understanding of cardiometabolic disorder pathogenesis. It may allow to predict the progression of these disorders at the early stages and to develop effective preventive and therapeutic tactics for their correction.

<p>The goal of our research has been to study sР-selectin and cytokine content changes, namely ІL-2, ІL-6 and TNF-α in blood plasma of patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus with varying compensation for the disease and arterial hypertension, as well as to investigate a possible interrelation between sР-selectin and cytokines. To achieve the goal 137 patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus with AH of the І-ІІ stages and without AH (72 women and 65 men) have been examined. The levels of sР-selectin, ІL-2, ІL-6, TNF-a in blood serum were determined by means of immunoenzymatic assay method. As a result, a reliable increase in sP-selectin level in blood serum has been detected in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus with deterioration of diabetes compensation along with АH; increase in ІL-6 level in groups with good and satisfactory compensation for diabetes and TNF -α in groups with bad compensation with the presence of АH.<em> </em>A reverse correlation between the content of sP-selectin and TNF-α in groups of those examined with non-compensated type 2 DM, associated with АH and without AH, stronger in a group of patients with type 2 DM and AH. The level of sP-selectin in blood increases with the deterioration of type 2 DM compensation along with AH. Most probable reverse correlations between sP-selectin and TNF-a levels in groups of patients with insufficient compensation for diabetes may indicate a mutually potential role of these factors in the development and progression of type 2 DM decompensation and AH.</p>

Metformin is the first-line pharmacotherapy for treating type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM); however, its mechanism of modulating glucose metabolism is elusive. Recent advances have identified the gut as a potential target of metformin. As patients with metabolic disorders exhibit dysbiosis, the gut microbiome has garnered interest as a potential target for metabolic disease. Henceforth, studies have focused on unraveling the relationship of metabolic disorders with the human gut microbiome. According to various metagenome studies, gut dysbiosis is evident in T2DM patients. Besides this, alterations in the gut microbiome were also observed in the metformin-treated T2DM patients compared to the non-treated T2DM patients. Thus, several studies on rodents have suggested potential mechanisms interacting with the gut microbiome, including regulation of glucose metabolism, an increase in short-chain fatty acids, strengthening intestinal permeability against lipopolysaccharides, modulating the immune response, and interaction with bile acids. Furthermore, human studies have demonstrated evidence substantiating the hypotheses based on rodent studies. This review discusses the current knowledge of how metformin modulates T2DM with respect to the gut microbiome and discusses the prospect of harnessing this mechanism in treating T2DM.
