Острые и хронические воспалительные процессы, связанные с ББ, могут вызвать эндотелиальную дисфункцию, которая затем может привести к последующему увеличению артериальной жесткости и изменению скорости распространения пульсовой волны (СПВ).Цель Оценка измерений СПВ у пациентов с неактивной ББ и лиц из группы контроля.Материалы и методы Было изучено 50 пациентов с неактивной ББ и 49 здоровых добровольцев без известных сердечно-сосудистых заболеваний. СПВ между сонной и бедренной артерией (каротидно-феморальная СПВ, кфСПВ) была определена у всех пациентов одним и тем же специалистом-исследователем с использованием прибора Complior (Colson, Paris, France).Результаты Средняя продолжительность болезни составила 3,23±2,31 года. Пациенты с ББ (средний возраст 36,04±9,94 лет) имели значительно более высокие уровни кфСПВ по сравнению с контролем (9,57±1,88 против 8,47±1,13 м/с; p=0,003). Было установлено, что СПВ положительно коррелирует с возрастом, систолическим, диастолическим, средним артериальным давлением, обхватом талии и соотношением талия/бедра.Выводы В настоящем исследовании продемонстрировано, что у пациентов с неактивной ББ по сравнению со здоровыми лицами значительно повышена артериальная жесткость, оцененная по увеличению кфСПВ.</p></abstract><trans-abstract xml:lang="en"><p>Introduction Behçet’s disease (BD) is a chronic, multisystemic disease characterised by vascular involvement. Acute and chronic inflammatory processes associated with BD may cause endothelial dysfunction, which can then lead to a subsequent increase of arterial stiffness and altered pressure wave reflections. The aim of this study was to evaluate the pulse wave velocity (PWV) measurements in patients with inactive BD and control subjects.Methods We studied 50 patients with inactive BD and 49 healthy control subjects without known cardiovascular disease. Carotid-femoral PWV was determined in all subjects by the same expert research clinician using Complior device (Colson, Paris, France).Results Mean disease duration was 3.23±2.31 years. Patients with BD (mean age 36.04±9.94 years) had significantly higher PWV levels compared to controls (9.57±1.88 vs. 8.47±1.13 m / s; p=0,003). PWV was found to be positively correlated with age, systolic, diastolic, mean blood pressure, waist, and waist / hip ratio.Conclusion In our study we demonstrated that patients with BD exhibit significantly increased arterial stiffness assessed by increased carotid-femoral PWV compared to healthy control subjects.</p></trans-abstract><kwd-group xml:lang="ru"><kwd>Болезнь Бехчета</kwd><kwd>артериальная жесткость</kwd><kwd>скорость пульсовой волны</kwd></kwd-group><kwd-group xml:lang="en"><kwd>Behçet’s disease</kwd><kwd>arterial compliance</kwd><kwd>arterial stiffness</kwd><kwd>pulse wave velocity</kwd></kwd-group><funding-group><funding-statement xml:lang="en">no</funding-statement></funding-group></article-meta></front><back><ref-list><title>References</title><ref id="cit1"><label>1</label><citation-alternatives><mixed-citation xml:lang="ru">Esatoglu SN, Hatemi G, Leccese P, Olivieri I.
