RESUMO
AIM: To determine the capabilities of the National Electronic System for collecting quantitative data necessary to assess the quality of management and effectiveness of arterial hypertension (AH) control at the primary health care (PHC) level and to develop indicators and possibilities of their use for a standardized report on the quality of AH management and control at the PHC level in the Kyrgyz Republic. MATERIAL AND METHODS: Data from electronic outpatient records were processed for all registered patients of a pilot family medicine center (FMC) that was selected randomly. The registered patient group consisted of 91,226 people older than 18 years, including 37,740 men and 53,486 women. The data obtained during contact with a patient was entered by the family doctor into the electronic outpatient record and automatically forwarded to the center that collected and aggregated the data. To monitor AH control, 11 indicators were developed and evaluated. The indicators were divided into 3 groups: indicators for identifying AH, indicators for the quality of AH patient management, and indicators for the effectiveness of AH control. RESULTS: In total, 26,206 patients (7,933 men and 18,273 women) visited the FMC during a year, and blood pressure (BP) was measured in 71.4% of them. In 2022, 5,072 patients (5.6% of the registered group) visited the FMC for AH, including 1,539 men and 3,533 women (4.1 and 6.6% of the registered patient group, respectively; p<0.001). The proportion of patients with AH who, according to the clinical protocol, had their BP measured 2 times a year or more, was 81.4% and was slightly higher for women than for men (82.3% and 79.1%, respectively; p<0.01). 38.7% of AH patients received antihypertensive drugs. Lipid-lowering therapy was prescribed to 23.5% of AH patients. The proportion of AH patients taking acetylsalicylic acid was higher, 36.3% for the whole group, including 34.1% for men and 37.2% for women (p<0.05). The efficacy of AH treatment was 62.8%. CONCLUSION: Any monitoring system has limitations for the amount of useful data that can be obtained ensuring their proper quality. Taking this into account, two major indicators are suggested to use for evaluating the effectiveness of AH control at the PHC level: 1) the number of AH patients who have achieved the BP goal; 2) the number of AH patients who visited a medical institution (health care facility) during a calendar year relative to the number of registered patients (AH detectability).

BACKGROUND: Familial hypercholesterolemia (FH) is frequently underdiagnosed. Prevalence of the FH in Kyrgyzstan is unknown. AIM: to investigate the prevalence of FH amongst patients in the outpatient settings of the tertiary cardiologic center in Kyrgyzstan. METHODS: Retrospective observational study was conducted using the database of the laboratory of biochemistry and electronic database of outpatient department of the National Center of Cardiology and internal diseases. Patient with the level of total cholesterol (TC) ≥7,5â¯mmol/l and/or low density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C)â¯≥â¯4,9â¯mmol/l without signs of secondary hyperlipidemia were included in the analysis. FH was defined using Dutch Lipid Clinic Network criteria. RESULTS: according to the laboratory database levels of TC and LDL-C was conducted in 8281patiens and 525 of them had a high lipid levels. After exclusion of patients with secondary hyperlipidemia, high level of triglycerides and pregnant women - 91 patients were included in the analysis. Among them the definite FH was revealed in 2 (2,2%) patients, probable FH - in 6 (6,6%), and possible in 76 (83,5%), and in 7,7% there were no signs of FH. CONCLUSION: Frequency of potential FH (definite and probable) in our analysis was low. To understand the real prevalence of FH in a Kyrgyz population epidemiological study is needed.

AIM: to study an association between T455C apolipoprotein C-III (apo C-III) gene polymorphism, insulin resistance (IR), metabolic syndrome (MS) and its components in a Kyrgyz ethnic group. MATERIAL AND METHODS: 259 persons: 162 patients with MS and 97 sex and age matched controls without MS, diabetes mellitus and cardiovascular diseases were included in the study. Clinical examination with arterial blood pressure, anthropometric data measurement and laboratory tests for blood glucose and lipid parameters were performed in all included persons. In 140 patients test for immunoreactive serum insulin was done. DNA was extracted from blood cells and T455C polymorphism of apo C-III gene was determined by PCR method. RESULTS: In examined persons the most frequent was TC genotype as in group with MS as in controls. The difference on genotype's frequency between group was close to significant level (χ2 =5.48; p = 0.06) and odd ratio (OR) for MS between CC and TT carriers was 2.57 (95% CI 1.15-5.72); p = 0.019). Frequency of 455C allele in control group was--0.44 and in group with MS--0.54 (χ2 = 4.55; p = 0.036). In carriers of CC genotype there was noted that the frequency of IR (61.8% vs 23.1% vs 36.3%; p < 0.005), insulin level (11.9 [7.04-16.3] vs 5.73 [3.34-10.3] vs 7.54 [4.59-12.2] µIU/ml; p < 0.01) and HOMA index (3.14 [1.66-4.79] vs 1.46 [0.8-2.6] vs 2.05 [1.12-3.6]; p < 0.01) were significantly higher compared with TT and TC genotypes groups respectively. OR for IR between CC and TT carriers was 5.39 (95% CI 1.7-16.9; p = 0.0028). There also was an association between CC genotype and other MS components such as abdominal obesity (χ2--6.24; p--0.044, OR (95% CI--2.21 [1.03-4.82]) and high level of blood triglycerides (χ2--7.57; p--0.022, OR (95% CI) 2.5 [1.14-5.5]). CONCLUSION: In examined Kyrgyz ethnic population the most frequent was heterozygous TC genotype of T455C polymorphism of apo C-III. An association of 455C allele and CC genotype with MS, IR, abdominal obesity and high level of triglycerides was revealed. Key words: apolipoprotein C-III; T455C gene polymorphism; metabolic syndrome, insulin resistance.

RESUMO
GOAL: To study an association of G protein (GP) 3 subunit 825 polymorphism with obesity in native Kyrgyzes. MATERIAL AND METHODS: 210 persons: 89 patients (female - 35, male - 54) with obesity (body mass index [BMI] more or equal 30 kg/m2) and 121 apparently healthy controls (38 female, 83 male) with normal BMI. Arterial blood pressure, anthropometric measurement and laboratory tests for blood glucose and lipid parameters were performed in all examined persons. DNA was extracted from blood cells and GP3 subunit 825 polymorphism was determined by PCR method. RESULTS: groups with TT and CT genotypes were combined together because of the rare frequency of TT genotype. Prevalence of + genotypes in group with obesity (0.72) was significantly higher than in controls - 0.52 (odds ratio 2.55, 95% confidence interval [CI] 1.31-4.23; =0.004). Arterial hypertension (45 vs. 31.3%; =0,049) and obesity (51.2 vs. 30%; p<0.01) occurred more often in + genotypes carriers compared with CC homozygotes. A logistic regression model for obesity showed significant effect of 825T allele (relative risk [RR] 2.89, 95% CI 1.25-6.7; =0.013) and irregular intake of vegetables (RR 3.47, 95% CI 1.52-7.94; =0.003) as predictors of obesity development independent of age, sex and physical activity level. In the regression model for arterial hypertension the 825T allele lost its significance after adjustment for obesity. CONCLUSION: GP3 subunit 825 allele in native Kyrgyzes is associated with obesity.

AIM: To study an association of the serum level of apolipoprotein E (apo-E) with risk factors for coronary heart disease (CHD), blood lipids and that with CHD and carotid artery (CA) atherosclerotic lesion in Kyrgyz men with dyslipidemia. SUBJECTS AND METHODS: One hundred and three Kyrgyz men, including 48 with CHD and 55 without this disease, were examined. A clinical examination was performed and blood lipid composition and serum glucose and apo-E levels were determined. The diagnosis of CHD was established in accordance with the conventional criteria. Whether atherosclerosis was present was determined by ultrasound duplex scanning. RESULTS: Low serum apo-E concentrations were associated with the presence of obesity, the higher blood levels of glucose and triglycerides. There was no correlation with other lipid metabolic parameters and the presence of CHD. A nonlinear relationship was noted between serum apo-E levels and CA atherosclerotic lesion, which was more frequently observed in patients with the apo-E level in the lower and upper quartiles. CONCLUSION: Low serum apo-E content is a poor factor and associated with obesity, hypertriglyceridemia, elevated serum glucose levels, and the development of CA atherosclerosis.

Neomycin, a selective inhibitor of the phosphoinositide metabolism, depending on its concentration and the incubation time, depressed the K+-contractures and contractions of m. sartorius R. ridibunda caused by a single or a tetanic electrostimulation. In the experiments on m. rectus abdominis, neomycin inhibited the Ach- and oubaine contractures but not the K+ ones. The contractures of both muscles induced with caffeine did not change in presence of the above antibiotic. The data obtained suggest a participation of phosphoinositides contractions of skeletal muscles induced by excitation of the plasma membrane.
