Objective - to evaluate the association of genetic markers and cardiovascular risk factors with thickening of the intima-media complex among patients with arterial hypertension in the indigenous and non-indigenous population of Mountain Shoriya. Material and methods. The population of Mountain Shoriya in the number of 1409 people was surveyed by a single method (901 people are of indigenous nationality, Shorians, 508 people are non-indigenous 90% of them are Caucasians). Shors are a small Turkic-speaking people. Lipid blood spectrum, fasting plasma glucose, Quetelet index, waist circumference, genetic markers [ACE (I/D, rs4340), AGT (c.803T>C, rs699), AGTR1 (A1166C, rs5186), ADRB1 (p.145A>G, Ser49Gly, rs1801252), ADRA2B (I/D, rs28365031), MTHFR (c.677C>T, Ala222Val, rs1801133) and NOS3 (VNTR, 4b/4a)]. Carotid ultrasound was performed. Hypertension was diagnosed according to the National Guidelines of the Russian Society of Cardiology/the Russian Medical Society on Arterial Hypertension (2010). The study included 226 Shorians and 124 non-indigenous people with arterial hypertension and an increased thickness of the intima-media complex. The control group consisted of individuals with high blood pressure without atherosclerosis of carotid arteries (81 and 66 people, respectively). Results. It was revealed that such risk factors as gender and age are significantly associated with the thickness of the intima-media complex in the shorthand cohort (OR 1.93; 95% CI 1.03-3.62 and OR 20.01; 95% CI 4.79-83.65) and age - in the cohort of representatives of non-indigenous nationality (OR 3.20; 95% CI 1.39-7.36). An important role in the formation of atherosclerosis of carotid arteries in patients with arterial hypertension has a duration of the course of the disease in both ethnic groups, respectively - OR 2.78; 95% CI (1.45-5.33) and OR 4.22; 95% CI (1.97-9.01). A significantly smaller contribution is made by the genetic component: the rs699 polymorphism of the AGT gene, as in the Shorts (OR 3.51; 95% CI 1.10-11.25), and in non-indigenous residents (OR 4.90; 95% CI 1.15-20.92) and polymorphism rs1801133 of the MTHFR gene only in persons of indigenous nationality (OR 10.80; 95% CI 2.35-49.70). Conclusion. Timely establishment of risk factors for subclinical atherosclerosis in hypertension and their correction depending on the national trait will help prevent the progression of the process, reverse it, and reduce the risk of complications, premature disability and mortality.

Aim: to evaluate the association of a complex of cardiovascular risk factors and genetic markers with the development of high albuminuria among patients with arterial hypertension in the population of Mountain Shoriya, taking into account ethnicity. Materials and methods. A clinical epidemiological study of a compactly residing population in remote areas of Mountain Shoria was carried out. 1409 people were examined [901 people - representatives of the indigenous nationality (Shorians), 508 people - representatives of non-indigenous nationality (90% of them are Caucasians)]. Hypertension was diagnosed according to the National Guidelines of the Russian Society of Cardiology/the Russian Medical Society on Arterial Hypertension (2010). All patients underwent clinical, laboratory and instrumental investigation. To study the state of the kidneys, the concentration (the presence of elevated levels) of albumin (albuminuria) in the morning portion of urine by an immunoturbidimetric method was analyzed. Polymorphisms of genes ACE (I/D, rs4340), АGT (c.803T>C, rs699), AGTR1 (А1166С, rs5186), ADRB1 (с.145A>G, Ser49Gly, rs1801252), ADRA2B (I/D, rs28365031), MTHFR (c.677С>Т, Ala222Val, rs1801133) and NOS3 (VNTR, 4b/4a) were tested using PCR. Results. In the group of shors with arterial hypertension, high albuminuria was associated with polymorphisms of the ACE genes (OR=2.05), ADRA2B (OR=6.00), elevated triglyceride level (OR=2.86), decreased index of cholesterol of high density lipoproteins (OR=5.57) and increased index of low density lipoproteins (OR=2.49); in the new population - with polymorphisms of the AGTR1 genes (OR=8.66), ADRA2B (OR=6.53), MTHFR (OR=7.16), obesity (OR=2.72), and abdominal obesity (OR=3.14). Conclusion. The primary predictors determining the development of high albuminuria among patients with arterial hypertension in both ethnic groups were genetic ones. In addition to them, non-genetic risk factors also contributed to the development of this organ damage to the kidneys: age and lipid metabolism disorders in representatives of indigenous nationality; age and abdominal obesity in the examined patients non-indigenous nationality.

Relevance. Myocardial infarction and its complications in young and middle-aged men with arterial hypertension remains an important problem of modern cardiology. Aim. To evaluate the cardiovascular risk factors structure features in men under 50 years old with arterial hypertension to improve prevention and outcomes. Material and methods. The study included 209 men aged 19-50 years old with type I myocardial infarction, who underwent a standard diagnostic algorithm in the first 48 hours and at the end of the third week of the disease. The patients were divided into two age-matched groups: with arterial hypertension (121 patients, 88 patients without arterial hypertension). A comparative analysis of the frequency of identifying the main and additional cardiovascular risk factors and their parameters were performed in the selected groups. Results. The study group showed more pronounced glycemia (5.6±1.4 mmol/l) than in the control group (5.2±1.3 mmol/l; p=0.04) at the end of the third week of myocardial infarction. In this group, there was a high incidence of obesity (42.1 and 25.0%, respectively; p=0.01), changes in peripheral arteries (86.0 and 3.5%; p<0.0001) and target organ damage , meteorological dependence (31.4 and 9.1%; p=0.0001), impaired peripheral hemodynamics, as well as hereditary burden of vascular pathology (100 and 56.8%; p=0.03). Conclusions. The data obtained suggest a worse long-term prognosis and a greater degree of resistance to treatment in men with arterial hypertension, which must be considered when implementing preventive programs.

Aim: The aim of this study was to investigate the effect of dietary education on cardiovascular risk factors in patients with rheumatoid arthritis. Method: In this randomized clinical trial, 112 patients with rheumatoid arthritis were randomly assigned into two groups, intervention and control. Dietary education was provided for the intervention group in 4 sessions; anthropometric measurements, serum levels of RF, triglycerides, cholesterol, HDL, LDL, and fasting blood sugar were measured before and three months after intervention. Data was analyzed using SPSS software and appropriate statistical tests. Results: The mean of total cholesterol (p <0.001), triglycerides (p = 0.004), LDL (p <0.001), systolic blood pressure (p = 0.001), diastolic blood pressure (p = 0.003), FBS and BMI (p <0.001) were decreased significantly in the intervention group after education compared the control group. Conclusion: Traditional care for rheumatoid arthritis patients is not enough. Patients need more education in order to improve their situation.

AbstractCommon carotid intima-media thickness (cIMT) is an index of subclinical atherosclerosis that is associated with ischemic stroke and coronary artery disease (CAD). We undertook a cross-sectional epigenome-wide association study (EWAS) of measures of cIMT in 6400 individuals. Mendelian randomization analysis was applied to investigate the potential causal role of DNA methylation in the link between atherosclerotic cardiovascular risk factors and cIMT or clinical cardiovascular disease. The CpG site cg05575921 was associated with cIMT (beta = −0.0264, p value = 3.5 × 10–8) in the discovery panel and was replicated in replication panel (beta = −0.07, p value = 0.005). This CpG is located at chr5:81649347 in the intron 3 of the aryl hydrocarbon receptor repressor gene (AHRR). Our results indicate that DNA methylation at cg05575921 might be in the pathway between smoking, cIMT and stroke. Moreover, in a region-based analysis, 34 differentially methylated regions (DMRs) were identified of which a DMR upstream of ALOX12 showed the strongest association with cIMT (p value = 1.4 × 10–13). In conclusion, our study suggests that DNA methylation may play a role in the link between cardiovascular risk factors, cIMT and clinical cardiovascular disease.

SummaryThere are limited and controversial data regarding the impact of factor XIII (FXIII) Val34Leu polymorphism in the pathogenesis of premature myocardial infarction (MI). We examined whether FXIII Val34Leu polymorphism is associated with the development of early MI.We recruited 159 consecutive patients who had survived their first acute MI under the age of 36 years (mean age=32.1 ± 3.6 years, 138 were men). The control group consisted of 121 healthy individuals matched with cases for age and sex, without a family history of premature coronary heart disease (CHD). FXIII Val34Leu polymorphism was tested with polymerase chain reaction and reverse hybridization. There was a lower prevalence of carriers of the Leu34 allele in patients than in controls (30.2 vs. 47.1%, p=0.006). FXIII Val34Leu polymorphism was associated with lower risk for acute MI after adjusting for major cardiovascular risk factors (odds ratio [OR] = 0.51, 95% confidence interval [CI] 0.27–0.95, p=0.03). Subgroup analysis according to angiographic findings (“normal” coronary arteries [n=29] or significant CHD [n=130]) showed that only patients with MI and significant CHD had lower prevalence of carriers of the Leu34 allele compared to controls after adjusting for major cardiovascular risk factors (OR = 0.42, 95% CI 0.22–0.83, p=0.01). Our data indicate that FXIII Val34Leu polymorphism has a protective effect against the development of MI under the age of 36 years, particularly in the setting of significant CHD.

AbstractThe objective of the study was to measure the levels of 25-hydroxyvitamin D [25(OH)D] and vitamin D binding protein (VDBP) and assess their relationships with cardiovascular risk factors in women with the polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS). A group of 267 women, aged 20–35 years (24.7 ± 4.9): 167 with PCOS and 100 healthy women were divided according to body mass index. Biochemical and hormonal parameters were measured. Free and bioavailable 25(OH)D were calculated using the mathematical equations. The percentage of body fat and visceral fat deposit were assessed by DXA. In the normal weight control group total, free, bioavailable 25(OH)D (p<0.001 for all) were significantly higher than in its overweight/obese counterpart, while VDBP levels were comparable. In PCOS women total 25(OH)D (p<0.001), and VDBP (p –0.006) were lower in the overweight/obese subgroups than in the normal weight ones. In both groups serum VDBP levels correlated negatively with serum insulin and positively with sex hormone binding globulin. In PCOS group, in contrast to control group, VDPB was negatively correlated with abdominal fat deposit, BMI, fasting glucose and positively with HDL. Despite lower total 25(OH)D in obese PCOS women, all women with PCOS (lean and obese) had comparable free and bioavailable 25(OH)D, which might be a result of concomitantly lowered serum VDBP levels in obese PCOS women. VDBP might play important role in the regulation of availability of active fractions of 25(OH)D in PCOS women. VDBP seems to be associated with cardiovascular risk factors such as BMI, waist circumference, visceral fat, and fasting serum insulin in women with PCOS.
