Abstract

Objective: Brucellosis is an important infectious disease, especially in developing countries, and may involve any organ, including the cardiovascular system. This study aimed to assess cardiac and endothelial functions in brucellosis patients. Methods: Seventy-three patients with brucellosis and seventy-five healthy volunteers from Turkey were enrolled between 2011 and 2013 in this cross-sectional study. Diagnosis was established by the Rose-Bengal test, positive Brucella standart tube agglutination test, and Coombs STA and/or isolation Brucella species from blood. Cases were divided into three groups: Group I; acute brucellosis, Group II; subacute brucellosis, and Group III; chronic brucellosis. Healthy individuals comprised Group IV. All patients underwent transthoracic echocardiogra- phy and brachial artery flow-mediated dilatation (FMD) test. Results: Groups I to IV comprised 35, 18, and 20 patients, and 75 controls respectively. The most frequent symptoms were arthralgia (82%), fever (92%), and fatigue (97%). Echocardiography revealed no difference among the 4 groups regarding left ventricular systolic and diastolic functions and valvular functions. Brachial artery diameter after hyperemia was significantly different among the groups (p=0.002). Post hoc test showed Group III to have significantly lower brachial artery diameter after hyperemia compared to other groups (p=0.02, p=0.004 and p=0.001, respectively). FMD was also significantly lower in Group III compared to Groups I, II and IV (p

Özet

Amaç: Bruselloz gelişmekte olan ülkelerde görülebilen önemli bir enfeksiyöz hastalıktır ve kardiyovasküler sistem dahil herhangi bir organı tutabilir. Bu çalışmada, brusellozlu hastalarda kalp ve endotel fonksiyonları incelendi.Yöntemler: Türkiyede 2011 ve 2013 yılları arasında gerçekleştirilen bu kesitsel çalışmaya brusellozlu 73 hasta ile sağlıklı 75 gönüllü alındı. Rose-Bengal testi, pozitif brusella standart tüp aglütinasyon testi, Coombs STA ve/veya kandan brusella türlerinin izolasyonu ile bruselloz tanısı konuldu. Hastalar üç gruba ayrıldı: Grup I akut brusellozlu, grup II subakut brusellozlu ve grup III kronik brusellozlu. Sağlıklı gönüllüler grup IVü oluşturdu. Tüm hastalara transtorasik ekokardiyografi ve brakiyal arter akım-ilişkili dilatasyon (FMD) testi uygulandı.Bulgular: Grup I-IV sırasıyla 35, 18, 20 hasta ve 75 sağlıklı gönüllüden oluşmaktaydı. En sık bulgular, artralji (%82), ateş (%92) ve halsizlik (%97) idi. Ekokardiyografik incelemede sol ventrikül sistolik ve diyastolik fonksiyonları ve kapak fonksiyonları açısından dört grup arasında fark saptanmadı. Hiperemi sonrası ölçülen brakiyal arter çapları gruplar arasında anlamlı olarak farklı idi (p=0.002). Post-hoc testine göre kronik brusellozdan oluşan grup IIIde hiperemi sonrası brakiyal arter çapı diğer gruplara göre anlamlı olarak daha düşük idi (sırasıyla, p=0.02, p=0.004 ve p=0.001). Benzer şekilde grup IIIde FMD değerleri grup I, II ve IVe göre (p
