ABSTRACT

PURPOSE: The study of quality of life (QOL) in patients with CHF with preserved LVEF (left ventricular ejection fraction) and a symptom of bendopnea with different levels of salt intake. Materials and methods. The study included 66 patients. The main symptoms of CHF were edema in 54.5% of cases, dyspnea in 77% of cases, ascites was detected in only 2 patients, an enlarged liver in 7 patients. Abdominal obesity was detected in 53 patients. Quality of life was assessed by the SF­36 questionnaire, the level of salt intake was assessed by the Charlton: SaltScreener questionnaire. Results. On average, the time of occurrence of the bendopnea was 22.5±9.3 seconds, the minimum was 5 seconds. The absence of the effect of abdominal obesity on the risk of bendopnea (relative risk 1.18 [0.76; 1.83]) was revealed. According to the SF­36 questionnaire, a decrease in physical health indicators (median 31.3 points [20.7; 42.3]) and psychological health (average score 43.2±21.7) was found. In patients with bendopnea, QOL was reduced due to both physical and mental health, unlike patients without bendopnea: physical functioning (Physical Functioning - PF) 24.8±16.1 against 47±28.9 points, p=0.001 ; role­based functioning due to physical condition (Role­Physical Functioning - RP), 0 [0; 25] vs. 37.5 [0; 100] points, p=0.008; general health (General Health - GH) 29.9±15.8 against 50±14.2 points, p=0.0005, social functioning (Social Functioning - SF) 56 ± 38 against 78.9 ± 17.8 points ; p = 0.004. Multidimensional regression analysis revealed the relationship between the time of occurrence of the symptom bendopnea and the level of salt intake, physical and psychological activity (r2=0.25; p<0.009). The time of onset of the symptom of bendopnea in patients with CHF decompensation was significantly longer (18.9±8.7 vs. 26.2±8.5 seconds, p=0.003). The presence of diseases such as hypertension, COPD, IHD, atrial fibrillation, cerebrovascular disease did not significantly affect QOL (p> 0.05), while the presence of bronchial asthma or chronic kidney disease significantly reduced QOL of patients (p<0.05). Conclusion. The presence of the symptom bendopnea significantly reduces the quality of life of patients with CHF with preserved LVEF (left ventricular ejection fraction).

ABSTRACT

AIM: To determine correlations of AH-associated interleukins (IL-18, IL-6) with sodium consumption in AH patients with and without DM. MATERIALS AND METHODS: The study included AH patients with and without DM (n=63) who were managed at the Municipal Clinic #64, Moscow Department of Health Care, Branch 1. Plasma levels of IL-6 and IL-18 were measured using ELISA kits (Bender Med-Systems). Salt consumption was determined using a Charlton: SaltScreener questionnaire. Statistical analyses were performed using the Statistica 10.0 software. RESULTS: Four groups were formed: Group 1, grade 2 AH and DM (n=19); Group 2, grade 2 AH and no DM (n=4); Group 3, grade 3 AH and no DM (n=28); and Group 4, grade 3 AH and DM (n=12). Group 2 was small and was excluded from further analysis due to impossibility of statistical treatment. All patients consumed more than 6 g of salt per day (approximately 10 g). Analysis of intergroup differences in selected parameters showed differences between groups in levels of cholesterol, triglycerides, LDL, and GFR. The following correlations were identified in the groups: Group 1, positive correlation of IL-18 with sodium consumption (r=0.65) and CRP level (r=0.52) and of IL-6 with LDL level (r=0.48); Group 3, positive correlation of IL-18 with IL-6 (r=0.66) and of IL-6 with CRP (r=0.52); Group 4, positive correlation of IL-18 with GFR (r=0.82) and of IL-6 with waist circumference (WC) (r=0.84) and IL-6 (r=0.73). CONCLUSION: Patients consuming more than 6 g of salt daily (approximately 10 g) with AH and DM had more pronounced inflammation, which promoted progression of kidney disease.

ABSTRACT

AIM: To identify the most significant factor influencing blood levels of cytokines in patients at high and very high cardiovascular risk. MATERIALS AND METHODS: A patient base from the "Management of chronic patients with multiple diseases" project was analyzed. 523 patients (mean age, 87±17.8) were included. Plasma samples were analyzed for concentrations of sodium, creatinine, IL-1, IL-2, IL-4, IL-6, IL-8, IL-10, IL-18, and NT-proBNP. GFR was calculated using the CKD-EPI formula. Time-related CHF progression was assessed in one year; the time-related progression was considered an increase in CHF stage. Salt consumption was determined using the Charlton: SaltScreener questionnaire at the baseline visit and at one year. Low-salt diet containing 5 g of salt per day was recommended to all patients; 3.5 g of salt per day was recommended to patients with a documented diagnosis of CHF. Statistical analysis was performed using the Statistica 10.0 software. RESULTS: 52.2 % of included patients consumed 6-10 g of salt per day; 43.4 % of patients consumed 10 g of salt or more per day; and only 4.4 % of patients consumed 5 g of salt or less per day. 21 % of included patients were at high risk of cardiovascular complications whereas for the vast majority of patients (79 %), the risk was stratified as very high. Two clusters of patients were formed based on the grade of hypertension, one-year CHF progression, and plasma levels of IL-6, -8, and -18. The one-year progression of CHF most significantly influenced the levels of IL-18, -8, and -6. The IL-6 level was correlated with the NT-proBNP level; an approximately similar degree of correlation was found for NT-proBNP and BP. CONCLUSION: Therefore, the performed statistical analysis determined correlations between the following factors: IL-6 level, NTproBNP level, and one-year CHF progression.
