Abstract
Aim. The purpose of our study is a comparative study of risk factors for cardiovascular diseases in patients with arterial hypertension (AH) and subclinical hypothyroidism (SG). Material and methods. Under our observation were 86 patients in the age from 35 to 50 years. Depending on the functional state of thyroid, patients were divided into 2 groups: the first group — patients with hypertension stage 2, the second group — patients with subclinical hypothyroidism, with previously diagnosed hypertension stage 2. A control group consisted of 25 almost healthy persons All patients underwent a comprehensive survey, identification of risk factors and the definition of high-sensitivity C-reactive protein (RF CRP) in the blood serum. Results. We revealed correlation of the levels of thyroid hormones with risk factors for cardiovascular disease. We demonstrated data on the prediction of a 10-year risk of cardiovascular complications in patients with arterial hypertension and subclinical hypothyroidism based on Reynolds scale. Conclusion. Subclinical hypothyroidism is accompanied by changes in lipid spectrum, and, as a consequence, predisposes to the earlier development of cardiovascular complications in patients with hypertension.
