Preprint

Objective of this study was to compare right ventricular echocardiography parameters in urbanized hypertensive patients of the Shor and non-indigenous ethnic groups in the Mountain Shoria region. Methods The study included patients with arterial hypertension: 58 Shors and 50 non-indigenous urbanized residents, comparable in age, and divided by ethnicity and gender into 4 groups: Shors men (n = 20), Shors women (n = 38), non-indigenous men (n = 15) and non-indigenous women (n = 35). All underwent echocardiographic examination, and the right heart parameters were studied. Results Shor men with arterial hypertension had the lowest values of the pulmonary artery index, the right atrium dimensions, and the highest values of the blood flow velocity in the right ventricle, et' and st' in comparison with non-indigenous men. Shor women have the lowest values Et and Et/At ratios. RV diastolic dysfunction was detected mainly in women, somewhat more often in Shors. Ethnicity was one of the factors associated with the right ventricular diastolic dysfunction presence. Among the factors associated with the RV diastolic dysfunction were risk factors (smoking, obesity), blood pressure, gender, ethnicity, and left ventricular parameters (diastolic dysfunction and the myocardial mass increase). Conclusion Our study established the influence of ethnic differences on the right heart echocardiographic parameters in Shors and Caucasians with arterial hypertension. The revealed differences should improve the assessment of the right heart structure and function in patients with arterial hypertension from small ethnic groups, which will help to improve the diagnosis and treatment of such patients.

“…The study included 200 patients who underwent CABG in the cardiovascular surgery department at our institute. A description of the recruitment and selection of patients in the study has been provided in our previous articles [ 15 , 16 ], and it is also presented in Figure 1 . In patients, we assessed preoperative parameters: risk factors, the presence of cardiovascular diseases, comorbidities, the severity of coronary and heart failure, damage to extracoronary arteries, laboratory data, and therapy received.…”

“…It should be noted that in previous studies, the parameters of the RV systolic function were mainly assessed [ 10 , 11 , 12 , 13 ]. At the same time, there is evidence that RV diastolic dysfunction can evolve before the identification of RV systolic dysfunction [ 14 , 15 ] and is associated with the development of perioperative complications [ 16 ]. While there is information regarding the indicators of RV systolic function in the postoperative period of cardiac surgery [ 17 , 18 ], the dynamics of RV diastolic function after surgery has not been practically studied.…”

Objective. Right ventricular (RV) dysfunction after coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG) is associated with increased mortality and morbidity. In previous studies, the parameters of RV systolic function were mainly assessed, while the dynamics of RV diastolic function after surgery was practically not studied. The aim of this study was to study the dynamics of indicators of systolic and diastolic RV function after CABG as well as to identify factors associated with their presence. Methods. The study included 160 patients who underwent CABG and 36 volunteers with no history of coronary artery disease (CAD) as a control group. Echocardiographic examination of patients was performed to assess systolic and diastolic RV dysfunction before surgery and 18 months after CABG. A level of s’t < 10 cm/sec or TAPSE < 16 mm was considered as a sign of existing RV systolic dysfunction. RV diastolic dysfunction was defined as an Et/At ratio < 0.8 or >2.1 and/or an Et/et’ ratio > 6. Results. In CAD patients 18 months after CABG, there was an increase in the frequency of the right ventricular systolic (from 7.5% to 30%, p < 0.001) and diastolic (from 41.8% to 57.5%, p < 0.001) dysfunction. An increase in TAPSE (p = 0.007), a decrease in e’t (p = 0.005), and the presence of RV systolic dysfunction before surgery (p = 0.023) was associated with a significant increase in the likelihood of detecting RV systolic dysfunction 18 months after CABG (χ2(3) = 17.4, p = 0.001). High values of At before surgery (p = 0.021) and old myocardial infarction (p = 0.023) were significantly associated with an increased likelihood of detection of RV diastolic dysfunction 18 months after CABG (χ2(2) = 10.78, p = 0.005). Conclusions. This study demonstrated that in CAD patients 18 months after CABG, there was an increase in the frequency of right ventricular systolic and diastolic dysfunction. We also established the initial clinical, echocardiographic parameters, and perioperative complications associated with the presence of these changes in the postoperative period. The clinical and prognostic significance of the presence of systolic and/or diastolic RV dysfunction in patients 18 months after CABG remains to be explored.

Aim of this study was to compare right ventricular echocardiography parameters in urbanized hypertensive patients of the Shor and non-indigenous ethnic groups in the Mountain Shoria region. The study included patients with arterial hypertension: 58 Shors and 50 non-indigenous urbanized residents, comparable in age, and divided by ethnicity and gender into 4 groups: Shors men (n = 20), Shors women (n = 38) , non-indigenous men (n = 15) and non-indigenous women (n = 35). All underwent echocardiographic examination, and the right heart parameters were studied. Shor men with arterial hypertension had the lowest values of the pulmonary artery index (p = 0.05), the right atrium dimensions (p = 0.04), and the highest values of the blood flow velocity in the right ventricle, et' (p = 0.05) and st' (p = 0.05) in comparison with non-indigenous men. Shor women have the lowest values Et/At ratios (p = 0.05). RV diastolic dysfunction was detected mainly in women compared with men (23.1% and 1.9%, p = 0.0014), somewhat more often in Shors. Ethnicity was one of the factors associated with the right ventricular diastolic dysfunction presence (p = 0.002). Among the factors associated with the RV diastolic dysfunction were risk factors (smoking, obesity), blood pressure, gender, ethnicity, and left ventricular parameters (diastolic dysfunction and the myocardial mass increase). Thus, our study established the influence of ethnic differences on the right heart echocardiographic parameters in Shors and Caucasians with arterial hypertension. The effect of sex on RV diastolic dysfunction was a lot bigger compared to the effect of ethnicity. The revealed differences should improve the assessment of the right heart structure and function in patients with arterial hypertension from small ethnic groups, which will help to improve the diagnosis and treatment of such patients.
