Objective: To investigate the relationship between left ventricular hypertrophy (LVH) and coronary artery disease in the very elderly (over 80 years old) patients with hypertension. Methods: One hundred twenty cases of very elderly patients with hypertension admitted to our hospital from March 2018 to December 2020 were selected and divided into two groups: the LVH group and the non-LVH group, all of whom were older aged over 80 years, including 62 patients in the LVH group and 58 patients in the non-LVH group. All patients underwent cardiac color Doppler ultrasound examination, 24-hour dynamic ECG examination, and coronary angiography or coronary CTA examination. The clinical data of the two groups were analyzed statistically. Results: There were significant differences in the number of diseased vessels, degree of coronary stenosis and vascular calcification between the two groups (P<0.05). Moreover, the results of risk factors for the degree of coronary artery disease in the two groups showed that the history of diabetes, 2hPG and LVH were independent risk factors for the three-vessel disease, while the history of LVH, FPG and alcohol intake were independent risk factors for diffuse lesions, but there was no statistical difference in the correlation between them and the degree of coronary stenosis. Conclusion: LVH is an independent risk factor for coronary artery stenosis and calcification in the very elderly patients with hypertension, but there is no statistical difference in the correlation between LVH and the degree of coronary stenosis. doi: https://doi.org/10.12669/pjms.37.5.4135 How to cite this:Sun JH, Liu XK, Zhang Q, Zhang QH.

Представлены результаты исследования концентрации TNF-α, а также взаимосвязи этого цитокина с рядом патологических состояний у больных старческого возраста c ИБС по сравнению с контрольной группой больных без ИБС. Средняя концентрация TNF-α достигала 9,2±4,7 пг/мл (3,9-31,9 пг/мл) при нормальных значениях TNF-α <8,1 пг/мл. Повышение уровня TNF-α обнаружено у 54,6 % больных. У больных ИБС средняя концентрация TNF-α достигала 10±4,9 пг/мл, тогда как в группе пациентов без ИБС - 6,1±1,8 пг/мл (р=0,000001). Содержание TNF-α было выше у пациентов с ХСН (р=0,002) и гиперурикемией (р=0,000006). Была выявлена достоверная позитивная корреляция уровня TNF-α и мочевой кислоты (р<0,000001), мочевины (р=0,00004), креатинина (р=0,002) и β-Cross Laps (продуктов деградации коллагена), р=0,0001, в сыворотке крови. Обнаружена отрицательная корреляция TNF-α и холестерина ЛПВП (р=0,00005), а также лептина (р=0,01). Отмечено снижение концентрации TNF-α с возрастом (р=0,006). The results of a study of the concentration of TNF-α as well as the relationship of this cytokine with a number of pathological conditions in very elderly patients with coronary artery disease compared with the control group of patients without CAD are presented in the article. The average group concentration of TNF-α reached 9,2±4,7 pg/ml (from 3,9 to 31,9 pg/ml) with normal TNF-α values of less than 8,1 pg/ml. An increase in the level of TNF-α was detected in 54,6 % of patients. In patients with coronary artery disease the average concentration of TNF-α reached 10±4,9 pg/ml, while in the group of patients without CAD - 6,1±1,8 pg/ ml (р=0,000001). TNF-α content was higher in patients with chronic heart failure (р=0,002) and with hyperuricemia (р=0,000006). The correlation analysis revealed a significant positive correlation between the level of TNF-α and uric acid (р<0,000001), between the concentration of TNF-α and the content of β-Cross Laps (degradation products of type I collagen) (р=0,0001), as well as serum creatinine (р=0,002) and urea (p=0,00004) levels. In addition, a negative correlation was found between the values of TNF-α and high-density lipoprotein cholesterol concentration (р=0,00005), as well as leptin level (h=0,01). A decrease in the concentration of TNF-а was observed with increasing age of the patients (р=0,006).

Abstract Introduction Given the potential side effects and the lack of data on its efficacy, the role of statins in the very elderly (age 75+) with peripheral arterial disease (PAD) is uncertain. Previous studies have shown significant mortality benefit in very elderly patients with coronary artery disease, but the effect in PAD has not been evaluated. Methods Very elderly patients aged 75 to 80 with at least five years of follow-up who underwent ankle-brachial index (ABI) measurement were included. PAD was defined as either low ABI &lt;0.90 or high ABI &gt;1.40. Demographic, medication use, comorbidity and mortality data was obtained using the electronic medical record. Univariate and multivariate Cox proportional hazard analyses were performed. Results In total, 4,560 very elderly subjects with PAD were included in the analysis. The median age was 77 (interquartile range 76–79) and 39% were female. 3,462 (76%) had low ABI while 1098 (24%) had high ABI. Univariate analysis showed that patients on statins were more likely to be male, have diabetes, have coronary artery disease, and have hyperlipidemia. Overall, 1,355 (30%) patients died in the five-year period. Unadjusted all-cause mortality hazard ratios for patients with low or high ABI with statin use was 0.66 (95% confidence interval [CI]: 0.57–0.75) and 0.80 (95% CI: 0.66–0.97), respectively. After adjusting for age, sex, coronary artery disease and diabetes, statin use in low and high ABI was still associated with significant reductions in risk of all-cause mortality of 0.59 (95% CI: 0.51–0.67) and 0.66 (95% CI: 0.54–0.80), respectively. The survival curve for very elderly patients with PAD by statin use is shown in Figure 1. Conclusion Statin use in the very elderly was associated with lower risk of all-cause mortality in the five-year period after diagnosis of PAD. There appears to be a mortality benefit with statin use in the very elderly with PAD, though careful consideration of benefits and side effects should be individualized in this age group.
