Abstract

Objective: To evaluate the impact of risk factors on atherosclerotic changes of aortic wall and valve in patients with and without non-familial hypercholesterolemia by transthoracic echocardiography. Methods: One hundred and eleven patients with non-familial hypercholesterolemia and 112 control subjects were included in the study. Aortic wall and valve were evaluated by visual assessment of wall hyperechogenicity and measuring the valve thickness. Aortic diameters were obtained at the levels of annulus, sinus of Valsalva and at the supravalvular level in the parasternal long-axis view by M-Mode echocardiographic examination. The relationship between parameters of aortic atherosclerosis and risk factors was studied by multivariate logistic regression analysis, Pearson and Spearman correlation analyses. Results: The prevalence of aortic wall hyperechogenicity was found to be higher in patients with hypercholesterolemia (84.7% vs 70.5%, p=0.01). The mean aortic root diameters at all levels of patients with hypercholesterolemia were found to be significantly smaller than in patients of the control group (3.1±0.3 mm vs 3.2±0.5 mm, p=0.02 for annulus level, 3.4±0.4 mm vs 3.5±0.4, p=0.004 mm for the level of sinus of Valsalva and 3.2±0.3 mm vs 3.4±0.5 mm, p

Özet

Amaç: Ailevi olmayan hiperkolesterolemili hastalarda risk faktörlerinin aort duvarı ve kapağındaki aterosklerotik değişikliklere etkisinin transtorasik ekokardiyografi ile değerlendirilmesi. Yöntemler: Çalışmaya hiperkolesterolemisi olan 111 hasta ile kolesterol düzeyleri normal bulunan 112 birey alındı. Aort duvarı ve kapağının hiperekojenitesi görsel olarak değerlendirildi. Aort yapraklarının kalınlığı ölçüldü. Aort çapları parasternal uzun eksende M-mod ekokardiyografi ile annulus, sinüs Valsalva ve supravalvüler düzeylerde kaydedildi. Aort aterosklerozu ile risk faktörleri arasındaki ilişki Pearson ve Spearman ile çok değişkenli regresyon analizi ile değerlendirildi.Bulgular: Aort kapak hiperekojenitesi sıklığı hiperkolesterolemili hastalarda kontrollere göre daha yüksek bulundu (%84.7 ve %70.5, p=0.01). Hasta grubunda tüm kesitlerden ölçülen ortalama aort çapı daha küçük bulunmasına rağmen (annulusta: 3.1±0.3 mm ve 3.2±0.5 mm, p=0.02, sinüs Valsalva düzeyinde: 3.4±0.4 mm ve 3.5±0.4, p=0.004 ve supravalvüler düzeyde: 3.2±0.3 mm ve 3.4±0.5 mm, p
