Aim: to investigate relationship between arterial hypertension (AH) and risk factors / subclinical damage of target organs in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus (DM2). Methods . We included into this clinical epidemiological study 528 patients with DM2 (30.5 % men, 69.5 % women; mean age 54.1±0.3 years; 80.3 % with AH, 19.7 % without AH), who answered questions of the ARIC study questionnaire related to risk factors. Also, we studied features of target organ damage and laboratory indicators. Results . In comparison with normotensives patients with AH more frequently had ischemic heart disease (12.7±1.6 % vs. 5.8±2.3 %, p<0.05), chronic heart failure (CHF) (30.9±2.2 % vs. 9.6±2.9 %, p<0.001), atherosclerosis of vessels of lower extremities (69.8±2.2 % vs. 53.8±4.9 %, p<0.01) and cerebral vessels (50.9±2.4 % vs. 28.8±4.4 %, p<0.001), history of stroke (5.0±1.1 % vs. 0 %, p<0.05), hypertonic angiopathy (14.5±1.8 % vs. 6.5±2.5 %, p<0.05), low level of high density lipoprotein (87.3±2.2 % vs. 74.5±6.4 %, p<0.05), electro- and echocardiographic signs of left ventricular hypertrophy (75.6±2.1 % vs. 45.4±5.1 %, p<0.001; 61.1±2.6 % vs. 24.4±4.7 %, p<0.001, respectively), lowering of left ventricular ejection fraction (12.5±1.7 % vs. 7.8±2.8 %, p<0.001), diastolic disfunction of the left ventricle (52.6±2.7 % vs. 23.2±4.7 %, p<0.001), atherosclerosis of the aorta (38.0±2.6 % vs. 20.7±4.5 %, p<0.01), lowering of the ankle-brachial index (left – 29.8±2.3 % vs. 14.9±3.5 %, p<0.01; right – 31.5±2.3 % vs. 9.9±3.0 %, p<0.001, respectively), increased intima-media thickness of the right carotid artery (84.6±5.0 % vs. 60.0±11.0 %, p<0.05). Conclusion . In patients with type 2 diabetes and AH, in order to develop strategy of macro- and microvascular complications prevention, it is necessary to conduct early screening of risk factors and subclinical damage of target organs.
