Study purpose - assessment of the relationship of levels of aldosterone and natriuretic peptide plasma aldosterone synthase gene polymorphism variants in patients with coronary heart disease (CHD) in combination with arterial hypertension (AH) at different left ventricular mass.Materials and methods. The study involved 63 male with hypertension and CHD; there were 32 men with signs of left ventricular hypertrophy (LVH) and 31 men with coronary artery disease with hypertension with a normal index of left ventricular mass. Evaluated the concentrations of aldosterone and plasma natriuretic peptide (NUP) in the relationship with characteristic of aldosterone synthase gene polymorphism.Results. It is established that the genotype CYP11В2 T/С of is associated with increased levels of aldosterone and signs of left ventricular hypertrophy. The level of LVC in the signs of LVH group was 2,1 fold higher than in patients without LVH. For patients with evidence of left ventricular hypertrophy is characterized by: the genotype of CYP11В2 T/C (62,5% of cases), the identification of the T allele (1,3 times more likely than patients without evidence of LVH) and more rarely than with normal index of left ventricular mass occurs variant CYP11В2 T/Т and more rarely prevalent allele C. Conclusion. In patients with coronary artery disease and hypertension, it is reasonable to implement in practice population genetic analysis to assess the probability the formation of left ventricular hypertrophy in the early stages of the disease.

Abstract Background Concentric left ventricular hypertrophy (cLVH) is a common left ventricular geometric pattern in patients undergoing maintenance dialysis, including peritoneal dialysis (PD). The relationship between cLVH at PD initiation and the prognosis of patients remains unclear, however. This study aimed to investigate the impact of cLVH at PD initiation on patient survival and major adverse cardiovascular events (MACE). Methods The retrospective cohort study included 131 patients who underwent echocardiography during the PD initiation period. Based on echocardiographic measurements, cLVH was defined as a condition with increased LV mass index and increased relative wall thickness. The relationship between cLVH and the prognosis was assessed. Results Concentric LVH was identified in 29 patients (22%) at PD initiation, and patient survival, MACE-free survival and PD continuation were significantly reduced in the cLVH group compared with the non-cLVH group. In the Cox regression analysis, cLVH was demonstrated as an independent risk factor of mortality (HR [95%CI]: 3.32 [1.13–9.70]) for all patients. For patients over 65 years old, cLVH was significantly associated with mortality and MACE (HR [95%CI]: 3.51 [1.06–11.58] and 2.97 [1.26–7.01], respectively). Serum albumin at PD initiation was independently correlated with cLVH. Conclusions In our study, cLVH at PD initiation was independently associated with survival in all patients and with both survival and MACE in elderly patients. Evaluation of LV geometry at PD initiation might therefore help identify high-risk patients. Further studies involving larger numbers of patients are needed to confirm the findings from this study and clarify whether treatment interventions for factors such as nutrition status could ameliorate cLVH and improve patient outcomes.
