Connection of Low Serum Testosterone Levels in Cardiovascular Disease in Metabolic Syndrome Patients with Diagnosis of Critic Iliac Artery Stenosis (TASC II A and B) and Can Exercise Improve those Levels and Primary Potency of Revascularization after Surgical and Endovascular Treatment? (Pilot Study)

Abstract

Introduction: Low concentration of free testosterone and low serum testosterone levels are associated in males patients with metabolic syndrome and cardiovascular disease and in some cases in connection with critic iliac stenosis and also in most cases with lack of physical activity. Exercise can be also important factor to improve primary bypass and endovascular potency and general health benefits after surigal and endovascular treatment in patients with critical ishemia over 75% of lumen obstruction of short liiac artery segment have positive impact on improvemt of generely Testosterone Levels. Subjects and Methods: 72 selected Patients with Cardiovascular Disease with Metabolic Syndrome and Critic Iliac Artery Stenosis (TASC II A and B) were observed in period 3 years between ferbruary 2015 and ferbruary 2018. In focus was 1 year potency after invasive and minimalinvasive tertmant (45 patients treated with surgical dacron reconstruction and 25 patients with endovascular tretmant of short segment critical iliac artery stenosis (TASC II A and B). Results: In the total population no difference in changes of CIMT from baseline was observed between the standard exercise group and controls. However, there was no significant interaction between the effect of exercise training and primary bypass potency during 1 year. Conclusion: Primary potency of Endovascular procedure and Dacron bypass revascularization after 1 year in exercise training group significantly rise of testosterone levels higher but still not therapy adequate. With potential optimization testosterone therapy levels we can answer of the question. Is any major influence on primary bypass potency and are higher levels of free testosterone are preventing further progressing of cardiovascular disease and generel symptomatic and asymptomatic atherosclerosis?
