Endothelial function of vessels in patients with chronic kidney disease combined with subclinical hypothyroidism under the influence of combined antihypertensive therapy.
The aim of the study: to evaluate the endothelial function of the vessels under the influence of combined antihypertensive therapy (valsartan 160 mg / amlodipine 5 mg vs valsartan 160 mg / hydrochlorothiazide 12,5 mg) in patients with CKD and subclinical hypothyroidism. 80 patients with CKD I-II sta...

| Summary: | The aim of the study: to evaluate the endothelial function of the vessels under the influence of combined antihypertensive therapy (valsartan 160 mg / amlodipine 5 mg vs valsartan 160 mg / hydrochlorothiazide 12,5 mg) in patients with CKD and subclinical hypothyroidism. 80 patients with CKD I-II stages and AH 1 and 2 degrees were examined. According to TSH level patients were divided into 2 groups. Than patients with SH were separated into 2 subgroups: 1a – patients that received valsartan 160mg/ amlodipine 5 mg and 1b - patients that received valsartan 160mg/ hydrochlorothiazide 12,5 mg). More often violation of brachial artery flow-mediated dilation was found among the main group. The use of two-component antihypertensive therapy based on valsartan 160 mg and amlodipine 5 mg or valsartan 160 mg and hydrochlorothiazide 12,5 mg ensured the achievement of target blood pressure levels in 83,3% and 84% of patients, respectively. The more significant improvement of brachial artery flow-mediated dilation was observed in patients that received fixed combination valsartan 160 mg/amlodipine 5 mg. |
