[Hypotensive therapy and the level of blood lipids in patients with chronic nephritis associated with arterial hypertension]. / Gipotensivnaia terapiia i soderzhanie lipidov v krovi bol'nykh khronicheskim nefritom s arterial'noi gipertoniei.

A study was made of the content of blood lipids in patients with associated chronic nephritis and arterial hypertension (AH). It has been established that the reduction of arterial pressure as a result of hypotensive therapy (administration of central action drugs, vasodilators of direct action, calcium antagonists, blockers of the angiotensin-transforming enzyme) was followed by a decrease in the blood of the concentration of fatty acids, glycerin, triglycerides, low density lipoproteins, total cholesterol, free cholesterol, phospholipids, characteristics of lipid peroxidation and by the rise of cholesterol concentration in high density lipoproteins. The data obtained are of clinical importance in view of the possibility of correcting dyslipidemia in patients with associated chronic nephritis and arterial hypertension during hypotensive treatment.
