Оценить сердечно-лодыжечный сосудистый индекс (СЛСИ) у больных ишемической болезнью сердца (ИБС) в зависимости от наличия периферического атеросклероза.</p></sec><sec><title>Материал и методы</title><p>Материал и методы. Обследованы 182 больных ИБС (161 мужчина и 21 женщина, средний возраст 58,5±7,5 лет). Исследовали состояние периферических артерий с помощью прибора VaSera VS-1000 (Fukuda Denshi, Япония) с оценкой лодыжечно-плечевого индекса (ЛПИ) и СЛСИ. Больные разделены на группы (гр.): I гр. (n=93) – СЛСИ 0,9, II гр. (n=32)– СЛСИ9,0 и ЛПИ&gt;0,9. Гр. сопоставлены по клиническим признакам, данным коронароангиографии (КАГ), наличию признаков поражения некоронарных сосудистых бассейнов при ультразвуковом исследовании.</p></sec><sec><title>Результаты</title><p>Результаты. У больных ИБС значения СЛСИ &gt; 9,0, отражающие повышенную жесткость артерий, выявлены в 31,3% случаев. При КАГ в I гр. несколько чаще выявлено однососудистое поражение (32,3%), по сравнению со II и III (15,6% и 17,5%; р=0,07). По частоте выявления 3-сосудистого поражения различий между гр. не отмечено – 29%, 25% и 28%, соответственно (р=0,9). Поражение 3 сосудистых бассейнов наиболее часто отмечено во II (46,9%) и III (14%) гр. (p&lt;0,00001). При множественном логистическом регрессионном анализе с повышенным СЛСИ были связаны возраст и индекс массы тела (ИМТ).</p></sec><sec><title>Заключение</title><p>Заключение. Наличие высокого СЛСИ у больных ИБС ассоциировалось с увеличением возраста обследованных, снижением ИМТ. Не отмечено взаимосвязи выраженности коронарного атеросклероза и СЛСИ, однако большее число пораженных сосудистых бассейнов выявлено у больных ИБС с высоким СЛСИ и/или со снижением ЛПИ.</p></sec></abstract><trans-abstract xml:lang="en"><sec><title>Aim</title><p>Aim. To study the association between cardio-ankle vascular index (CAVI) and peripheral atherosclerosis in patients with coronary heart disease (CHD).</p></sec><sec><title>Material and methods</title><p>Material and methods. The study included 182 CHD patients (161 men and 21 women; mean age 58,5±7,5 years). The examination of peripheral arteries was performed using the VaSera VS-1000 device (Fukuda Denshi, Japan). Ankle-brachial index (ABI) and CAVI were calculated. All participants were divided into three groups: Group I (n=93): CAVI &lt;9,0 and ABI &gt;0,9; Group II (n=32): CAVI &lt;9,0 and ABI &lt;0,9; and Group III (n=57): CAVI &gt;0,9 and ABI &gt;0,9. Clinical parameters, coronary angiography (CAG) data, and ultrasound signs of peripheral artery atherosclerosis were compared across groups.</p></sec><sec><title>Results</title><p>Results. CAVI &lt;0,9, which reflected increased arterial stiffness, was observed in 31,3% of CHD patients. According to CAG results, Group I participants had a slightly higher prevalence of one-vessel pathology (32,3%) than their peers from Groups II and III (15,6% and 17,5%, respectively; p=0,07). The prevalence of three-vessel pathology was similar in all three groups (29%, 25%, and 28%; p=0,9). Atherosclerosis of three vascular basins was more prevalent in Group II (46,9%) and Group III (14%; p&lt;0,00001). In multivariate logistic regression analyses, increased CAVI was associated with age and body mass index (BMI).</p></sec><sec><title>Conclusion</title><p>Conclusion. In CHD patients, high CAVI values were linked to older age and lower BMI. There was no clear association between CAVI and coronary atherosclerosis severity; however, CHD patients with high CAVI and/or low ABI demonstrated a higher number of atherosclerosis-affected vascular basins.</p></sec></trans-abstract><kwd-group xml:lang="ru"><kwd>сердечно-лодыжечный сосудистый индекс</kwd><kwd>ишемическая болезнь сердца</kwd></kwd-group><kwd-group xml:lang="en"><kwd>cardio-ankle vascular index</kwd><kwd>coronary heart disease</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">Kobalava ZhD, Kotovskaja JuV, Markova MA, Villeval’de SV.
