Abstract
Diabetic polyneuropathy (DP) and angiopathy are interdependent processes, as disturbances in the microcirculatory system of peripheral nerves lead to increased axonal damage and is a kind of predictor of polyneuropathy progressing [6]. 80% of deaths from diabetes mellitus (DM) are associated with cardiovascular catastrophes, including coronary heart disease (CHD), stroke and peripheral artery disease [3].
The objective: to analyze the most common cardiovascular pathology (CVP) and show its impact on the course of DP in type I and II DM.
Materials and methods. Was clinically examined 101 patient with DP. The examined patients were divided into groups: with DP on the background of type 1 DM (group I) (n=54) and with DP on the background of type II DM (group II) (n=47), and also were divided into subgroups: DP on the background of type I and II DM and existing CVP (including diabetic angiopathy) 82 (82%) (subgroup А) and with the DP on the background of DM type I and II without CVP – 19 (19%) (subgroup В). Patients were examined to determine the neurological status, were performed laboratory and instrumental methods of examination. Static calculation was performed in MS Excel 2003 and in the programme STATISTICA 10.
Results. Regarding to the patients of subgroup А and В we noted the natural predominance of trophic disorders, changes in the reflex sphere and sensitivity in subgroup А. Patients of group II more often than in group I had pathology of the cardiovascular system. Hypertension (HT) and CHD in both cases were registered with a high frequency. In subgroup А there was a combination of several nosologies: from the respiratory, urinary, gastroenterological system (1%), urinary and gastroenterological (3%), gastroenterological and endocrine (2%), urinary and endocrine (1%). In subgroup В diseases of urinary and gastroenterological pathology were found in (5%), gastroenterological (5%), endocrine (11%). The examined patients from group I and with the concomitant CVP have lower linear velocity of blood flow (LVBF) on both tibial arteries, patients in group II – have marginally higher LVBF. Analysis of the results of duplex scanning of lower extremity arteries showed a high incidence of stenosis, in particular the anterior tibial arteries (ATA) up to 30–40%, posterior tibial arteries (PTA) up to 40–50% and occlusion (PTA and femoral, popliteal, tibial segment) in individuals of group I.
Conclusions. In patients with DP on the background of type I and II DM and available CVP (subgroup А), the clinical manifestations of polyneuropathy were quite pronounced, especially in the field of trophic disorders, because CVP enhances the ischemia of the microsaceous channel of the peripheral nerves. In addition, persons with concomitant CVP have a wide range of another comorbid pathology, which accelerates the onset of DM complications.
