Ожирение как фактор риска тромбоэмболии легочной артерии

The aim of the study. Based on the data of the Register of new cases of hospital pulmonary embolism (PE) in hospitals in Tomsk (2003–2012), to explore the contribution of obesity to the development of venous thromboembolism. Material and Methods. Study were subjected to medical history and records of autopsies of patients treated in hospitals in Tomsk in 2003–2012, who at patologoanatomic and/or instrumental study revealed pulmonary embolism. The degree of obesity was assessed according to WHO criteria (1997). Statistical processing of the results was carried out using the software package for PC Statistica 8.0 for Windows. To test the normality of the distribution of quantitative traits using the Shapiro–Wilk test and the Kolmogorov–Smirnov with the adjusted Lillieforsa. Check the equality of the population variance was performed using Fisher's exact test and Cochran. Was considered statistically significant level of p < 0.05. The results of the study. In Western Siberia, Tomsk, a register of hospital pulmonary embolism (2003–2012). In the register included 720 patients with in vivo and/or post mortem revealed pulmonary embolism (PE). Analyzed data from medical records and autopsy reports. Revealed statistically significant differences in BMI (p = 0.033) and the presence of obesity (p = 0.002) in patients with pulmonary embolism, holding medical and surgical beds. As of medical, surgical and among patients with thromboembolism, obesity is significantly more common in women than men (p = 0.050 and p = 0.041 respectively). According to the study, obesity grade 1 or 2 alone (at the isolated presence of the patient) is not significantly increased the odds of a massive thromboembolism. However, grade 3 obesity increased the odds of a massive pulmonary embolism by more than 2.7 times (OR = 2.708, CI: 1,461–5,020).
