RESUMEN
Se realizó una investigación cuantitativa de tipo correlacional con el objeto de evaluar la asociación entre microalbuminuria (MA), proteína C reactiva ultrasensible (PCR-us) y riesgo cardiovascular (RCV) de acuerdo a la escala de Framingham en pacientes con síndrome metabólico (SM) que asistieron a la consulta del Servicio de Medicina Interna del Hospital Universitario Dr. Luis Gómez López durante el período junio 2017-junio 2018. La muestra la conformaron 30 pacientes con una edad promedio de 49,53 ± 13,35 años y predominio del sexo femenino. El 53,3% de los pacientes no tenía tratamiento. El 73,3% de los pacientes presentaron RCV muy alto y alto de acuerdo a la escala de Framingham. La mayor parte de los pacientes con RCV muy alto presentaron valores elevados de PCR-us. Se observó una correlación positiva entre los valores de PCR-us y el RCV (R=0,533, p < 0.05). Es importante la identificación temprana del SM como factor de riesgo para el desarrollo de enfermedades cardiovasculares(AU)
ABSTRACT
A correlation-type quantitative investigation was carried out with the aim to evaluate the association between microalbuminuria (MA), high-sensitive C-reactive protein (hs-CRP) and cardiovascular risk (CVR) determined by the Framingham scale in patients with Metabolic Syndrome (MS) who attended the Internal Medicine Service of the Hospital Universitario Dr. Luis Gómez López during the period June 2017-June 2018. Thirty patients were included with an average age of 49.53 ± 13.35 years and female sex predominance. According to the Framingham scale, 73.3% of patients had very high and high CVR. Most patients with very high CVR had elevated levels of hs-CRP. There was a positive and significant correlation between hs-CRP levels and CVR (R=0.533, p <0.05). An early diagnosis of MS is important as a risk factor for the development of cardiovascular disease(AU)
