title: [Diastolic dysfunction--predictor of cardiac remodeling in arterial hypertension in young males].
abstract: For the study of the state of central hemodynamics and diastolic function of the left and right ventricle in formation of arterial hypertension (AH) with method of computer polyrheocardiography 76 males of mean age of 35.1 +/- 3.2 years were examined. The first group included 26 cases with high normal BP (systolic BP (SBP) 130-139 mm Hg, diastolic (DBP) 85-89 mm Hg--prehypertension, the second group was consisted of 30 cases with essential AH 1 stage (SBP 140-159 mm Hg, DBP 90-99 mm Hg), who did not receive antihypertensive therapy. The control group was consisted of 20 practically health young males. As a result of performed study at early stages of AH there were revealed lop-sided changes both of central hemodynamics and a diastolic function of both ventricles, which progressively increase along with elevation of AH stage. Diastolic dysfunction of left and right ventricle appears at the prehypertension stage and stage 1 arterial hypertension and precedes heart remodeling.
