title: [Oxygen-transport function of the blood and endothelial dysfunction in patients with angina pectoris and arterial hypertension].
abstract: Parameters of oxygen-transport function of the blood and function of the endothelium were studied in 49 patients with stable angina pectoris of I and II functional class with or without concomitant 2nd degree arterial hypertension. All patients received pathogenetic therapy. Signs of endothelial dysfunction were found in group III in which endothelium dependent vasodilation (8.22 +/- 1.71%) was 73.4% (p1 < 0.001) lower than in control group and 47.2% (p3 < 0.05) lower than in patients with class I angina. In all groups baseline content of nitrates/nitrites was lower. Main parameters of acid-base balance were lowered in patients of group III evidencing for emergence of signs of metabolic acidosis and hypoxia. Lowering of hemoglobin affinity to oxygen and its rise after therapy was also revealed. Maximal lowering of this parameter (-10.2%, p2 < 0.05) reflecting shift of oxyhemoglobin dissociation curve to the right was noted in group II. Endothelium can participate in formation of these disturbances because its dysfunction is associated with deranged release of NO in various parts of vascular tree. This affects formation of various NO-derivatives of hemoglobin and oxygen transport system of the blood.
