[Left ventricular diastolic dysfunction in patients with psoriasis in the presence of chronic opisthorchiasis].
Left ventricular diastolic function was studied in patients with psoriasis concurrent with chronic opisthorchiasis (CO). Seventy-five patients with psoriasis concurrent with CO, 50 patients with CO, and 20 healthy individuals were examined. Echocardiographic study (EchoCG) in the M-, B-, and Doppler modes was made in all the patients, by using the standard methods. All the examinees were found to have impaired active left ventricular relaxation that manifested itself as a longer isovolumic relaxation time, which was more pronounced in patients with psoriasis concurrent with CO. Left ventricular systolic function in these patients was preserved. In the psoriatic patients, diastolic dysfunction was characterized by impaired relaxation and it was more evident in patients with comorbidity.
