LIPID METABOLISM STATE IN MEN UNDER 60 YEARS OLD WITH METABOLIC SYNDROME DURING MYOCARDIAL INFARCTION

Abstract

Abstract: Relevance. The lipid metabolism changes during myocardial infarction (MI) in men with metabolic syndrome (MS) may be important for the MI complications development. Aim. To evaluate the lipid metabolism changes in acute and subacute MI periods and their role in the MI complications development in men under 60 years old with MS to improve prevention and outcomes. Material and methods. The study included men aged 19-60 years old with MI and MS. The patients were divided into two age-comparable groups: I - study group, with MS - 95 patients; II - control, without it - 571 patients. A comparative analysis of the lipid metabolism parameters and their dynamics in acute and subacute MI periods in selected groups, analysis of their influence on the risk of MI complications were performed. Results. It was found that in the first hours of MI in the study group, higher levels of triglycerides (3.19 ± 2.34 mmol/l) were noted compared to the control group (2.44 ± 1.75 mmol/l; p=0.02). The dynamics of lipid metabolism at the end of the third week of MI, significant multidirectional changes in all parameters with more pronounced atherogenic changes in the study group were revealed. The risk of MI complications was associated with levels of triglycerides (TG) ˂5.2 (p=0.02), high density (HDL) ≥0.9 (p=0.04) and very low-density lipoproteins (VLDL) ˂0.9 (p=0.04) (mmol/l) of the first hours of MI. Conclusions. The presence of MS impairs lipid metabolism in both acute and the subacute MI periods. In the study group, there is an increase in the levels of atherogenic lipids and their indices during the observation period. MI complications are associated with levels TG ˂5.2; HDL ≥0.9 and VLDL ˂0.9 (mmol/l) during the first hours of MI. It is expedient to use them in predictive modeling.
