Цель. Целью исследования явилась оценка эффективности и приверженности гиполипидемической терапии, частоты развития сердечно<со< судистых осложнений в течение 3<летнего периода наблюдения в рамках регистра РЕНЕССАНС (Регистр пациентов с СГХС и пациентов очень высокого сЕрдечно<Сосудистого риска с недоСтАточной эффективНоСтью проводимой гиполипидемической терапии). Материал и методы. РЕНЕССАНС является открытым национальным наблюдательным исследованием и включает больных с семейной ги< перхолестеринемией (СГХС), а также пациентов очень высокого сердечно<сосудистого риска (ОВССР). Учитывали наличие факторов риска атеросклероза, анамнез сердечно<сосудистых заболеваний, гиполипидемическую терапию. В каждом центре выполняли определение концен< трации: общего холестерина (ОХС), триглицеридов (ТГ), холестерина липопротеидов высокой плотности (ХС ЛВП) в сыворотке крови. Содер< жание холестерина липопротеидов низкой плотности (ХС ЛНП) рассчитывали по формуле Фридвальда. Уровень липопротеида(а) измеряли методом иммуноферментного анализа в некоторых центрах. При оценке частоты конечной точки, включавшей фатальные и нефатальные сердечно<сосудистых осложнения (ССО), проводили анализ Каплана — Майера. Результаты. В регистр включено 1570 (средний возраст 54,0±14,6 лет) пациентов с СГХС и 121 (63,5±10,9 лет) больной с ОВССР. В группе СГХС динамическое наблюдение проведено у 594 пациентов (38%) в течение 23,6±14,6 месяцев, конечная точка зарегистрирована у 9% больных. Мужской пол (относительный риск 2,1; 95% доверительный интервал 1,13–3,66; p<0,01), гипертония (2,8; 1,4–5,2; p<0,01), ишеми< ческая болезнь сердца (6,8; 3,5–13,2; p<0,0001), отягощенный анамнез по сердечно<сосудистым заболеваниям (ССЗ) (2,1; 1,1–3,9; p<0,05) и концентрация липопротеида(а) ≥ 30 мг/дл (2,8; 1,1–7,7; p<0,05) явились предикторами развития ССО. В группе СГХС отмечено снижение уровня ОХС от исходного на 19%, ХС ЛНП на 25% (р<0,001 для обоих), целевых значений ХС ЛНП достигли 2% больных. В группе ОВССР динамическое наблюдение проведено у 72 (60%) пациентов в течение 19,7±5,8 месяцев. Ни один больной не достиг целевого уровня ХС ЛНП менее 1,4 ммоль/л. Заключение. Трехлетнее наблюдение за участниками регистра РЕНЕССАНС демонстрирует усиление приверженности гиполипидемической терапии. С увеличением риска развития сердечно<сосудистых осложнений при СГХС ассоциированы мужской пол, наличие гипертонии, ише< мической болезни сердца, отягощенного анамнеза по ССЗ и высокий уровень липопротеида(а). The aim of the study was to evaluate the effectiveness and adherence to hypolipidemic therapy, the frequency of cardiovascular events (CVE) during the 3!year follow!up in the RENAISSANCE registry (Registry of patients with familial hypercholesterolemia and very high cardiovascular risk with insufficient effect of hypolipidemic therapy). Methods. The RENAISSANCE registry is an open, national, observational study and includes patients with familial hypercholesterolemia (FH), as well as patients of very high cardiovascular risk (VHR). We took into consideration atherosclerosis risk factors and history of cardiovascular diseases (CVD), adherence to hypolipidemic therapy. Concentrations of total cholesterol (TC), triglycerides (TG), high density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL!C) were measured in blood serum in all centers. Low density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL!C) level was defined according to Friedewald formula. The concentration of lipoprotein(a) was measured by enzyme!linked immunosorbent assay in serum in some centers. Kaplan!Mayer analysis was performed to assess the frequency of fatal and nonfatal CVE. Results. The Registry consisted of 1570 (mean age 54.0±14.6 years) FH patients and 121 (63.5±10.9 years) VHR patients. Data of 594 patients (38%) who had follow!up visits were obtained in FH patients, follow!up duration 23.6±14.6 months, 54 (9%) patients experienced CVE. Male sex (hazard ratio 2.1; 95% confidence interval 1.13!3.66, p<0.01), hypertension (2.8;1.4–5.2; p<0.01), ischemic heart disease (6.8;3.5!13.2; p<0.0001), family history of CVD (2.1;1.1–3.9, p<0.05) and lipoprotein(a) level ≥30 mg/dl (2.8;1.1–7.7; p<0.05) were predictors of CVE. In FH patients the level of TC decreased by 19%, LDL!C by 25% (p<0.001 for both). Data on 72 VHR patients (60%) were obtained with follow!up duration of 19.7±5.8 months. No patient achieved the target LDL!C level of less than 1.4 mmol/L. Conclusion. Three!year follow!up of participants in the RENAISSANCE registry shows an enhanced adherence to hypolipidemic therapy. In FH patients the increased risk of new CVE is associated with male sex, hypertension, CHD, family history of CVD and lipoprotein(a) level ≥30 mg/dl

Aim. To evaluate the efficiency of cardioprotective therapy using intravenous metoprolol in combination with a high dose of atorvastatin in the prevention of myocardial remodeling (MR) and heart failure (HF) in patients with acute ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI).Material AND methods. A prospective study included 100 STEMI patients who underwent primary percutaneous intervention (PCI). Depending on the regimens of drug cardioprotection, three groups of patients were formed: the first (2014–2015) — 34 patients who received 80 mg atorvastatin as a part of the basic therapy on the first day of STEMI, then 20–40 mg/day for 30 days. The second group (2017–2018) — 34 patients who received atorvastatin 80 mg/day for a month from the onset of STEMI. The third group (2018–2019) — 32 patients who received intravenous metoprolol tartrate (5–15 mg) and atorvastatin 80 mg/day before PCI for a month from the onset of STEMI. On days 1 and 2 of STEMI and one month later, patients were assessed for serum levels of cardiac biomarkers; on the 1st, 7th days and one month later, echocardiographic studies (EchoCG) were performed. At the end of the observation, clinical and imaging outcomes (MR and HF) were assessed, which were compared with the dynamics of biomarkers between the groups of patients.Results. The combined use of atorvastatin 80 mg/day for a month from the onset of STEMI and a single intravenous injection of metoprolol tartrate (5–15 mg) in the acute phase of STEMI before PCI showed the most significant effects in the prevention of the development of structural and functional myocardial disorders and clinically severe heart failure, and also caused the minimal serum activity of cardiomarkers in the third group of patients in comparison with the first and second groups of patients without this drug combination. Also, correlations between biomarkers and echocardiography indicators were established in the third group of patients who received cardioprotective therapy.Conclusion. The combined use of high-dose atorvastatin for a month with a single intravenous injection of metoprolol tartrate in acute STEMI before PCI prevents the formation of MR and clinically significant HF in the post-infarction period. Comprehensive dynamic assessment of cardiac biomarkers and echocardiography parameters within a month after post-STEMI is a highly informative tools for monitoring the efficiency of cardioprotective therapy.

Aim. To assess the dynamic changes and clinical significance of biomarkers of inflammatory processes in patients with acute myocardial infarction (MI) with/ or without type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) and primary percutaneous coronary intervention (pPCI) at various stages of treatment.Methods. 96 patients with acute MI after pPCI were examined. The level of inflammation markers was measured 4 times: before pPCI (first day from admission to the hospital), on the third day, 7–10 days (before discharge from the hospital) and 40–45 days after pPCI.Results. All groups of patients with MI showed an increase in the plasma activity of biomarkers of inflammatory processes. After pPCI for 40–45 days, there is a significant difference in the concentration of biomarkers, depending on the comorbid T2DM presence. Strong associations were found between cardiovascular biomarkers and post-MI cardiac remodeling and coronary atherosclerosis progression.Conclusion. The assessment of the levels of biomarkers of inflammatory processes may have additional clinical value in estimating the course of MI, including patients with T2DM at the postinfarction stages.
