The aim — to compare effectiveness of open and minimally invasive surgical techniques in patients with varicose disease (VD) and post‑thrombotic disease (PTD) of the lower extremities, to assess the possibility of Ukrainian high‑tech developments using. Materials and methods. Analysis was conducted of surgical treatment of 94 patients with VD for the period from 2014 to 2017 and 81 patients with PTD (the period from 2002 to 2010) in the «Olexandrivska» clinical hospital in Kyiv. Results and discussion. The results of treatment were evaluated at 4 weeks, 3 months, and 6 months after surgery by sonographic criteria, the presence of local edema, the dynamics of the trophic changes in soft tissue of the shin. After 1 month, a slight improvement was fixed at 18 % of the patients of the main group, moderate improvement — at 74 %, significant improvement — at 8 %. In 3 months the estimated effectiveness was 2 %, 12 %, 86 %, in 6 months — 2 %, 6 %, 92 %, respectively. The average length of hospital stay for patients in the main group was 2.4 ± 0.4 days, whereas in the control group this indicator was 5.2 ± 1.2 days. Conclusions. Endovenous laser coagulation and subfascial endoscopic dissection are effective, low‑impact methods for treating lower limb varicose and post‑thrombotic diseases of the lower extremity veins and should actively supplant open methods of surgical treatment. Ukrainian developments using high‑frequency electric welding and electrocoagulation technologies could take leading positions in phlebology.","PeriodicalId":23425,"journal":{"name":"UMJ Heart & Vessels","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2019-03-10","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"73517782","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The study included 320 patients (156 men and 164 women) aged from 35 to 80 years (mean age 62.8 ± 0.61 years) with uncomplicated AH of stage I — II, degree 1 — 2 (62.0 % and 38, 1 %, correspondingly).

Матеріали і методи. Обстежено 134 пацієнти з ХСН, зумовленою ішемічною хворобою серця або дилатаційною кардіоміопатією, та зниженою (< 40 %) фракцією викиду лівого шлуночка, серцевою недостатністю ІІ Б за критеріями Стражеска–Василенка, ІІІ — ІV функціонального класу за критеріями Нью‑Йоркської Асоціації серця (NYHA), госпіталізованих з приводу декомпенсації кровообігу. Медіана віку становила 59,5 (54—68) року. Усім пацієнтам проводили загальноклінічне обстеження, визначали рівень креатиніну, азоту сечовини, сечової кислоти, інтерлейкіну‑6, цитруліну в плазмі крові, N‑термінального фрагмента попередника мозкового натрійуретичного пептиду (NT‑proBNP) при госпіталізації та перед випискою, швидкість клубочкової фільтрації (ШКФ) за допомогою рівняння CKD‑EPI. Хворі отримували стандартне лікування. Пацієнтів розділили на дві групи за величиною приросту вмісту креатиніну перед випискою: перша — з ПНФ (зі збільшенням рівня креатиніну ≥ 17,7 мкмоль/л), друга — без ПНФ. Результати та обговорення. У 110 (82 %) пацієнтів не виявлено ПНФ після подолання клінічної декомпенсації, у 24 (18 %) — рівень креатиніну збільшився на 17,7 мкмоль/л або більше, що відповідало зниженню ШКФ ≥ 5 мл/(хв · 1,73 м 2 ). При госпіталізації пацієнти не відрізнялися статистично значущо за віком, частотою коморбідної патології, основними гемодинамічними показниками, рівнем калію в плазмі крові, азоту сечовини, сечової кислоти, NT‑proBNP, величиною ШКФ. Після досягнення еуволемічного стану в пацієнтів з ПНФ відзначено меншу величину систолічного артеріального тиску, вищий рівень азоту сечовини, сечової кислоти, інтерлейкіну‑6 та цитруліну. Для подолання декомпенсації цим особам знадобилося більше часу, майже вдвічі більші курсових та вищі середньодобові дози петльового та калійзберігаючого діуретиків. Пацієнти з ПНФ мали статистично значущо гірший прогноз щодо тривалої виживаності. Висновки. Серед пацієнтів з ХСН та зниженою фракцією викиду лівого шлуночка, госпіталізованих з декомпенсацією кровообігу, ПНФ під час терапії виникло у 18 % випадків. На момент виписки у пацієнтів з ПНФ порівняно з пацієнтами без такої відзначено статистично нижчий рівень систолічного артеріального тиску, більшу тривалість періоду подолання декомпенсації, більші середньодобові дози петльового та калійзберігаючого діуретиків, більший вміст сечової кислоти, азоту сечовини, інтерлейкіну‑6 та цитруліну в плазмі крові.

Materials and methods. The study involved 60 patients (mean age 64.3 ± 1.6 years) with ACS with ST segment elevation of up to 6 hours’ duration and concomitant type 2 DM, who had had urgent coronary angiography and stenting of the infarction‑dependent artery. The patients were divided into two groups: group І — 30 persons to whom standard intravenous infusion was given of a preparation containing 4.2 g of arginine hydrochloride and 2.0 g of L‑carnitine, 100 ml a day for 7 days, and group ІІ — 30 individuals who did not receive additional therapy. A general clinical examination was conducted with an assessment of complaints and anamnesis, objective physical examination data and the results of additional diagnostic methods. The level of troponin I and resolution of ST segment were determined on the 1st, 3rd and 7th days. Results and discussion. Patients in both groups were compared according to the main clinical and anthropometric indices, prescribed drug therapy, features of atherosclerotic damage of coronary artery, duration of ischemic period, troponin I level on the 1st, 3rd and 7th days (all p > 0.05). The value of ST segment elevation at the time of hospitalization in the patients of both groups did not differ significantly: 4.8 ± 0.17 and 4.5 ± 0.15 mm respectively, but on day 3 it was lower in group І (2.37 ± 0.14 mm) compared with group II 3.2 ± 0.17 mm, p = 0.05). In patients of group I, unlike such of group II, there was a significant decrease in the level of aspartate aminotransferase and alanine aminotransferase on day 7. The decrease in group I was more pronounced than in group II (p = 0.048 and p = 0.032, respectively). Conclusions. The addition of amino acids complexes (4.2g of arginine hydrochloride and 2.0 g of L‑carnitine) to drug therapy of patients with ACS with ST segment elevation and concomitant DM type 2 after myocardial revascularization, contributes to a rapid decrease in the level of troponin I and reduction in ST segment elevation and is not accompanied by side effects.","PeriodicalId":23425,"journal":{"name":"UMJ Heart & Vessels","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2018-12-19","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"84861683","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
