Изучить частоту поражения сосудов у пациентов с ревматоидным артритом (РА), с артериальной гипертонией (АГ) и без нее в зависимости от воспалительного статуса на основании оценки маркеров атеросклероза (толщины комплекса интима-медиа сонных артерий, лодыжечно-плечевого индекса - ЛПИ) и артериосклероза (скорость распространения пульсовой волны (СРПВ), центральное пульсовое давление, сердечно-лодыжечный сосудистый индекс (СЛСИ) и феномен утраты градиента жесткости). Материалы и методы. 85 пациентов с РА [EULAR/ACR (2010)], средний возраст составил 59,7±14,3 лет, АГ наблюдалась у 64,7%, медиана длительности РА - 7 лет. СРПВ и параметры центральной пульсовой волны измеряли методом аппланационной тонометрии. Градиент жесткости рассчитывали, как отношение каротидно-феморальной (кф) и каротидно-радиальной (кр) СРПВ; значения ≥1 расценивали, как его утрату. ЛПИ и СЛСИ оценивали методом сфигмометрии. Ультразвуковое измерение толщины комплекса интима-медиа осуществляли в соответствии со стандартным протоколом. Полученные данные считали статистически достоверными при p&lt;0,05. Результаты. Повышение хотя бы одного маркера атеросклероза выявлено у 32,9%, артериальной ригидности - у 63,5%, любого маркера - у 65,9%. Помимо различий по возрасту, продолжительности АГ) уровню систолического АД, наличию дислипидемии, группы с повышением хотя бы одного маркера артерио- или атеросклероза характеризовались достоверно более высоким уровнем высокочувствительного С-реактивного белка (вчСРБ) (медиана 12,6 и 5,9 мг/л, 11,3 и 3,9 мг/л соответственно). Появление хотя бы одного маркера атеросклероза независимо взаимосвязано с возрастом≥58 лет (β=0,7) и градиентом жесткости ≥1,1 (β=0,9), хотя бы одного маркера ригидности - со снижением СКФ &lt;62,1 мл/мин/1,73 м2 (β = -0,5), дислипидемией и приемом НПВП. Обнаружены достоверные взаимосвязи вчСРБ с СРПВ (r=0,35), СЛСИ (r=0,42), ЛПИ (r= -0,3). Установлена независимая ассоциация повышения кфСРПВ с уровнем вчСРБ≥9,6 мг/л (β=0,18, р=0,04). Заключение. У пациентов с РА маркеры повышения артериальной ригидности встречаются чаще маркеров субклинического атеросклероза. вчСРБ является независимым фактором повышения кфСРПВ наравне с возрастом, продолжительностью АГ и уровнем периферического САД.</p></abstract><trans-abstract xml:lang="en"><p>The aim of the study was to evaluate parameters of arterial stiffness (AS) (carotid-femoral pulse wave velocity (cfPWV), central pulse pressure (PP), cardio-ankle vascular index (CAVI) and stiffness gradient between aorta and brachial artery) and subclinical atherosclerosis (carotid intima-media thickness (CIMT) and ankle-brachial index (ABI)) according to inflammatory activity in patients with ВД.. Materials and methods: 85 patients with (EULAR/ACR 2010) were examined (age 59,7±14,3 years, 64,7% with arterial hypertension (AH). Median duration of was 7 years. PWV and central pulse wave were assessed by applanation tonometry. Arterial stiffness gradient was calculated as a ratio between carotid-femoral and carotid-radial PWV: its elevation ≥1 was considered as arterial stiffness mismatch. ABI and CAVI were measured by sphygmometry. CIMT was assessed according to the standard protocol, CIMT&gt;0,9 mm was considered as a subclinical marker of atherosclerosis. p&lt;0.05 was considered significant. Results. Presence of at least 1 marker of atherosclerosis was observed in 32,9%, at least 1 marker of AS - in 63,5%, any marker of arterial damage - in 65,9%. Groups with at least 1 marker of AS or atherosclerosis were characterized by significantly higher hs-CRP level (median 12,6 vs 5,9 mg/l and 11,3 vs 3,9 mg/l respectively). Presence of at least 1 marker of atherosclerosis was associated with age ≥58 (β =0,7) and stiffness gradient ≥1,1 (β =0,9), marker of AS - with GFR &lt;62,1 ml/min/1,73 m2 (β = - 0,5), dyslipidemia and NSAIDs intake. Spearmen analysis revealed significant positive correlations between hs-CRP and cfPWV (r=0,35), CAVI (r=0,42), ABI (r= - 0,3). Independent association of cfPWV elevation and hsCRP≥9,6 mg/l was found (β=0,18, р=0,04). Conclusion. In patients with RA markers of AS are more prevalent then markers of atherosclerosis. hsCRP is an independent marker of cfPWV increase as well as age, AH duration and SBP level.</p></trans-abstract><kwd-group xml:lang="ru"><kwd>ревматоидный артрит</kwd><kwd>артериальная ригидность</kwd><kwd>субклинический атеросклероз</kwd><kwd>скорость распространения пульсовой волны</kwd><kwd>градиент жесткости</kwd><kwd>сердечно-лодыжечный сосудистый индекс</kwd><kwd>лодыжечно-плечевой индекс</kwd><kwd>толщина комплекса интима-медиа</kwd><kwd>rheumatoid arthritis</kwd><kwd>arterial stiffness</kwd><kwd>subclinical atherosclerosis</kwd><kwd>pulse wave velocity</kwd><kwd>stiffness gradient</kwd><kwd>cardio-ankle vascular index</kwd><kwd>ankle brachial index</kwd><kwd>carotid intima-media thickness</kwd></kwd-group></article-meta></front><back><ref-list><title>References</title><ref id="cit1"><label>1</label><citation-alternatives><mixed-citation xml:lang="ru">Van den HoekJ, Roorda LD, Boshuizen HC, Tijhuis GJ, DekkerJ, van den Bos GA et al.
