ABSTRACT

Fundamentos: cresce em importância a relação entre níveis glicêmicos aumentados, porém não diabéticos (tolerância à glicose diminuída - TGD), fator de risco cardiovascular e hipertrofia ventricular esquerda (HVE). Objetivo: avaliar a massa do ventrículo esquerdo (MVE) em pacientes hipertensos sob tratamento ambulatorial e com TGD. Materiais e métodos: foram avaliados 358 pacientes hipertensos (com média de idade 59 ± 11 anos), divididos em três grupos: grupo I (hipertensos); grupo II (hipertensos com TGD) e grupo III (hipertensos com diabetes tipo 2). Em todos os pacientes foi realizado o ecocardiograma e utilizada a fórmula de Devereux para o cálculo da massa do ventrículo esquerdo (MVE). Para o índice de MVE (IMVE) foram considerados valores normais de até 89 e 103 g/m² para mulheres e homens, respectivamente. Utilizou-se o teste estatístico ANOVA complementado pelo teste de Tukey e Bonferroni para detectar diferenças entre os grupos. Resultados: a média do IMVE foi de 110,2 ± 33,0; 117,6 ± 30,1 e 128,0 ± 46,8 g/m² nos grupos I, II e III, respectivamente, sendo que 65,1% (grupo I), 74,6% (grupo II) e 80,5% (grupo III) dos pacientes apresentaram aumento do IMVE. Não houve diferença estatística no aumento de IMVE entre os grupos I e II, mas foi significantemente maior no grupo III, quando comparado com o grupo I. Conclusões: o grupo dos pacientes hipertensos com TGD (grupo II) não apresentou aumento de MVE estatisticamente significante em relação aos não intolerantes (grupo I) e o grupo de pacientes hipertensos e diabéticos apresentou aumento significante da MVE em relação ao grupo de hipertensos (grupo I).


Background: It is growing in importance the correlation between elevated glycemic levels (impaired glucose tolerance) but no overt diabetes and the risk factor of cardiovascular disease and increased cardiac mass. Objective: We sought to determine the left ventricular mass (LVM) in hypertensive patients under treatment and with impaired glucose tolerance (IGT). Materials and methods: 358 patients were evaluated (mean age 59 ± 11 years) separated in three groups: group I (hypertension); group II (hypertension and IGT) and group III (hypertension and diabetes mellitus 2). Echocardiograms were performed in all patients and the left ventricular mass index (LVMI) was calculated using the Devereux's criteria and values greater than 110 and 134 g/m² for women and man, respectively, were considered for left ventricular hypertrophy. The statistic methods ANOVA together with Tukey and Bonferroni tests were executed to detect differences among groups. Results: 110,2 ± 33,0; 117,6 ± 31,0 and 128,0 ± 46,8 g/m² were the mean of LVMI for groups I, II and III, respectively. The increasing of LVM was 65,1% (group I), 74,6% (group II) and 80,5% (group III). There was not statistic difference between groups I and II in relation to increasing of LVMI, but it was significantly greater in group III. Conclusions: The increasing of LVMI was not observed in the impaired glucose tolerance hypertensive patients when compared with normoglycemic hypertensive patients and the increasing of LVMI was significant in diabetic hypertensive patients.

ABSTRACT

Con el objetivo de establecer la prevalencia de hipertrofia ventricular izquierda (HVI) en pacientes con diabetes mellitus tipo 2 (DM), se realizó un estudio transversal en estos pacientes, estableciendo sus características antropométricas, presión arterial y control metabólico. Para evaluar la presencia de HVI se empleó ecocardiografía transtorácica. El estudio incluyó 91 pacientes, en los cuales la prevalencia de HVI fue de 63,7%, siendo más frecuente en mujeres que en varones (p=0,001). Adicionalmente, se encontró un 46,2% de pacientes con disfunción diastólica del ventrículo izquierdo. Se concluye que existe una importante prevalencia de HVI en pacientes diabéticos sin antecedentes de causas definidas de hipertrofia. No se encontró relación con sexo, control metabólico, IMC y tiempo de diagnóstico.


In order to establish the prevalence of left ventricular hypertrophy (LVH) in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus, (DM) a cross-sectional study was conducted in these patients studying their anthropometric characteristics, blood pressure and metabolic control. To evaluate the presence of LVH, a trans-thoracic echocardiogram was used. The study included 91 patients, finding a 63.7% prevalence of HVI, with women being more affected than men (p=0.001). Additionally, 46.2% of patients were found to have diastolic dysfunction of the left ventricle. We conclude that there is an important prevalence of LVH in diabetic patients without defined causes of hypertrophy. There was no association with sex, metabolic control, BMI and time of diagnosis.
