The overall estimate of baseline SBP and β-AR of EM in patients with RH could determine the expediency of the RSD procedure in order to lower BP. The proposed procedure can optimize the selection of patients and enhance the efficiency of RSD in the treatment of RH.
Background. The high prevalence of cardiac damage in resistant hypertensive patients signifcantly increases the risk of cardiovascular complications. Despite the antihypertensive effcacy of renal denervation (RDN), the cardioprotective effect has not been suffciently studied.Objective. To study the changes in left ventricular mass (LVM) and volume of myocardial damage after the RDN and to detect a possible connection of the studied parameters with blood pressure (BP) reduction after RDN.Design and methods. RDN was applied to 84 patients with resistant hypertension. Initially, at 6 and 12 months after treatment, patients underwent the measurements of the “offce” BP, 24-h BP, echocardiography and cardiac contrast-enhanced magnet-resistance tomography.Results. At baseline, “offce” BP averaged 175,3 ± 22,1 / 100,4 ± 16,1 mmHg and the prevalence of left ventricular hypertrophy (LVH) was 84,5 %. “Offce” BP reduced signifcantly at 6 month by –27,5 (–74,0; 12,0) / –14,2 (–39,4; 10,3) mmHg (p < 0,001), at 12 month by –31,6 (–78,7; 8,3) / –15,5 (–43,3; 10,2) mmHg (p < 0,001). 24-h BP reduced signifcantly at 6 month by –13,0 (–45,2; 17,6) / –6 (–27,8; 8,9) mmHg (p < 0,001), at 12 month by –14,3 (–52; 25) / –7,3 (–26; 15,0) mmHg (p < 0,001). At 12 month after RDN LVM decreased by 6,9% (p = 0,015), LV mass index by 5,5 % (p = 0,020). According to MR study, subendocardial damage was detected in 100% of patients in the absence of coronary atherosclerosis. A volume of subendocardial damage signifcantly reduced by 29 % at 6 month (p = 0,031) and by 41,4% at 12 months after RDN (p = 0.008). LVM reduced signifcantly by 18,3 % (р = 0,008). LVM also reduced signifcantly in non-responder’s group at 6 month after RDN (р = 0,046). The regression of subendocardial damage correlated with the change in systolic BP at 12 months after RDN (р = 0,034). There was no signifcant correlation between LVH regression and baseline BP and its change after RDN.Conclusions. One year after RDN, LVH decreased independently from the BP change. Subendocardial damage was detected in 100% patients, regressed at 6 months after RDN and correlated with the regression of systolic BP at 12 month after the RDN.
Objective.To evaluate the plasma levels of metalloproteinases (MMP) and their inhibitor in patients with resistant hypertension (RHTN) and type 2 diabetes mellitus (DM2) and their relationship with renal blood flow and kidney function.Design and methods.The study included 18 patients with RHTN and DM2 and 16 individuals with RHTN without DM, who underwent offce and 24-h ambulatory blood pressure measurements, renal Doppler ultrasound, and laboratory tests (daily albuminuria, estimated glomerular fltration rate calculated by CKD-EPI formula, HbА1c and basal glycaemia levels, MMP-9, MMP-2, tissue inhibitor of MMP type 1 (TIMP1), MMP/TIMP-1 ratios).Results.Patients with RHTN and DM2 and subjects with RHTN without DM were comparable by mean levels of metalloproteinases, TIMP-1, and their ratios. The frequency of increased MMP-9 level was similar in both groups (61 % for RHTN + DM2 group and 75 % for RHTN without DM, p > 0,05). In patients with RHTN and DM2 the increase in MMP-9 and a decrease in TIMP-1/MMP-9 ratio were associated with a reduction in renal resistive indices (MMP-9 and RI in the main renal arteries: right-sided R = –0,60, p = 0,009, left-sided R = –0,60, p = 0,008; in segmental arteries: R = –0,49, p = 0,038 on the right and R = –0,59, p = 0,012 on the left; for TIMP-1/MMP-9 and segmental arteries: R = 0,51, p = 0,028 on the right; and R = 0,46, p = 0,04 on the left). The eGFR and MMP-9 signifcantly correlated (R = 0,55, p = 0,023). Patients with increased albuminuria showed higher values of TIMP-1/MMP-2 ratio than patients with normal albuminuria (2,97 ± 0,82 и 1,58 ± 0,33 ng/mL, respectively, p = 0,03). There was a direct correlation between TIMP-1/MMP-2 ratio and basal glycaemia (R = 0,59, p = 0,018).Conclusions.Patients with RHTN and DM2 had comparable MMP levels and their inhibitor to those in patients with RHTN without DM, which may partly reflect that extracellular matrix formation is independent from carbohydrate disorders in RHTN. In patients with RHTN and DM2 an increase in MMP-9 and a decrease in TIMP-1/MMP-9 ratio may be adaptive, since it is accompanied by improved intrarenal blood flow and renal fltration function. The increase in basal hyperglycemia is associated with the suppression of the proteolytic activity of MMP-2 related to the progression of albuminuria.
Научно-исследовательский институт кардиологии,Томский национальный исследовательский медицинский центр Российской академии наук, 634012, Российская Федерация, Томск, ул. Киевская, 111а Аннотация Пациенты с резистентной артериальной гипертензией (РАГ), ассоциированной с ишемической болезнью сердца (ИБС), в особенности при неблагоприятном течении коронарного атеросклероза, составляют группу высочайшего риска кардиоваскулярных осложнений. Для фактора некроза опухоли альфа (ФНО-α) и высокочувствительного С-реактивного белка (вч-СРБ) была показана независимая предикторная роль в развитии таких осложнений. При этом динамика данных маркеров и артериального давления (АД) под влиянием ренальной денервации (РДН) у этих больных ранее не рассматривалась. Цель: изучить динамику АД и провоспалительных маркеров у пациентов с РАГ и ИБС после РДН, сравнить данные показатели в зависимости от тяжести течения коронарного атеросклероза. Материал и методы. Проведен анализ историй болезни 35 пациентов с РАГ и ИБС, прошедших полное клинико-инструментальное и лабораторное обследование до и через один год после РДН. Результаты. Наблюдалось снижение среднесуточного АД в среднем на 15 (0-21)/7 (-3-14) мм рт. ст., р < 0,05, ФНО-α с 7,8 (6,3; 9,6) до 7,3 (6,8; 8,6) пг/мл (р = 0,044) и тренд к снижению вч-СРБ с 2,4 (1,4; 6,0) до 1,8 (1,3; 3,6) мг/л (р = 0,186). В группе пациентов с неблагоприятным течением коронарного атеросклероза исходно (р = 0,040) и через год (р = 0,038) отмечались более высокие уровни ФНО-α, а значимой динамики АД не наблюдалось. Таким образом, полученные данные свидетельствуют о том, что у пациентов с неблагоприятным течением коронарного атеросклероза антигипертензивное действие РДН менее выражено. Ключевые слова: резистентная артериальная гипертензия, ренальная денервация, коронарный атеросклероз, высокочувствительный С-реактивный белок, фактор некроза опухоли альфа.
