[Disability due to arterial hypertension and alimentary factors, determining cardiovascular risk].

The problem of disability is associated with the problem of socially significant diseases, the main feature and at the same time the key characteristic of which is mass character. The epidemic nature of the spread and the medical and social burden of arterial hypertension (AH) leads to the assignment of this pathology to the number of socially significant diseases. The aim of the study was to analyze primary disability due to AH in Moscow and clinical and pathogenetic parallels between the level of arterial pressure and alimentary factors determining cardiovascular risk (CVR). Material and methods. The object of study was the data on the primary disability of the population of Moscow during the period 2011-2017 according to the form of state statistical observation #7-sobes and data of the Ministry of Health of Russia. The study was retrospective. The subject of a selective study was an analysis of the nosological spectrum of causes of disability, the nature of functional impairment and the degree of disability of elderly people who underwent inpatient treatment at the hospital for war veterans of the Rostov region in 2018-2019. The analysis of the spectrum of factors that determine the CVR. Results and discussion. The total number of newly recognized disabled (NRD) due to hypertension amounted to 11,069 people. The growth of the share of NRD of young age (6.8-11.7%), a decrease in the proportion of NRD of middle age (45.3-41.7%) and elderly in 2015-2016 (39.1-39.9%), but the growth of this indicator in this contingent in 2017 to 46.6% were noted. The proportion of NRD group III increased (to 69.1%), NRD group II decreased (to 20.3%) with a negative trend of growth in the proportion of VPI of the most severe group I. Selective survey data among people with disabilities undergoing inpatient treatment at the hospital for war veterans of the Rostov Region (2018-2019) indicated that they had a wide range of factors determining the CVR. Conclusion. The persistence of patients with hypertension triggers, supporting its further progression, is the cause of the low effectiveness of therapy and exacerbates the prognosis. It is advisable to have a unified approach to improving the efficiency of dietary use at the stages of complex treatment, prophylactic and rehabilitation programs with the goal of primary and secondary prevention of hypertension and disability due to this socially significant pathology.

[Ramipril treatment of heart failure in disseminated forms of pulmonary tuberculosis]. / Lechenie serdechnoi nedostatochnosti pri rasprostranennykh formakh tuberkuleza legkikh s ispol'zovaniem ramiprila.

A total of 108 patients with heart failure-complicated disseminated pulmonary tuberculosis were followed up. Fifty eight patients received combined therapy including the angiotensin-converting enzyme inhibitor ramipril in a daily dose of 0.25-0.50 mg for 1.5-2 months. Fifty ramipril-untreated patients comprised a control group. Examinations revealed the benefits of the agent in decompensatory chronic cor pulmonale as improved right ventricular systolic and diastolic functions and health in the patients.
