Варианты патогенетического лечения аспирининдуцированных гастроэнтеропатий у лиц с хронической ишемической болезнью сердца

Abstract

Aim: Evaluation of Rebamipide treatment efficiency for aspirin-induced gastroduodenopathy in the patients with stable coronary heart disease (CHD). Design: Randomised controlled study. Materials and methods: In the course of the conducted research 340 CHD patients receiving long-term acetylsalicylic acid therapy in cardioprotective doses were studied. All the patients received complete clinical laboratory examination. For CHD verification there was applied selective method of coronary angiography. Gastroduodenopathy was verified by esophagogastroduodenoscopy. In both cases frequency and structure of the aforesaid events were assessed. For aspirin-induced gastroduodenopathy treatment there were applied either endogenic prostaglandin stimulant Rebamipide in combination with proton pump inhibitor (PPI) Pantoprazole (study group, n = 26) or Pantoprazole only (control group, n = 25). Prior to initiating therapy and on completion all the patients were taken blood samples for evaluation of prostaglandin E2 (PGE2) and proinflammatory cytokines (interleukine-1β Il-1β and interleukine-6 Il-6, TNF-α) levels in blood serum for verification of pathogenetic mechanisms in erosive or ulcer-bearing areas developing in gastrointestinal mucosa in association with long-term aspirin therapy. Соntrol group consisted of 26 CHD patients with no evidence of gastroduodenopathy. Statistical processing of the received data was conducted with the software program “Statistics 10.0”. Results. Aspirin-induced gastroduodenopathy was identified in 51 out of 340 (15,0%) cases. According to esophagogastroduodenoscopy data, erosions of the body and antrum of stomach were prevailing (43,1%) over all the erosive damages. CHD patients before the gastroduodenopathy treatment had significantly lower PGE2 levels in comparison with control group (p < 0,01), while proinflammatory cytokines indices were higher (p < 0,001). On the treatment completion 19 patients in the control group did not show endoscopic evidence of gastroduodenopathy, the laboratory findings tended to normalization. Gastric mucosa condition in the study group stabilized in all the cases, which was confirmed by statistically significant PGE2 level positive alterations (p < 0,001) and also cytokine profile alterations (TNF-α: p < 0,001; Il-1β and Il-6: p < 0,01). Conclusion. The presented study demonstrates clinical features of aspirin-induced gastroduodenopathy development in the CHD patients and proposes possible ways of correction. Key words: aspirin-induced gastroduodenopathy, acetylsalicylic acid, prostaglandin E2, proinflammatory cytokines, rebamipide.
