Abstract
Purpose: To investigate interrelations between interleukin 33 (IL-33) and
1β (IL-1β) serum levels, left ventricular (LV) remodeling and diastolic dysfunction
(DD) in hypertensive patients with obesity.
Materials and methods: 80 hypertensive patients (51 obese) underwent
transthoracic echocardiography. LV geometric pattern by A.Ganau, E/A and
E/E' ratios, pulmonary wedge pressure (PWP) by S.Nagueh were calculated.
IL-33 and IL-1β serum levels were estimated using ELISA.
Results: IL-33 and IL-1β were higher in hypertensive patients (p<0,001),
independently of BMI, and formed 4 clusters (see pic.) Cluster 1 was associated
with the highest LV myocardial mass index (MMI) (160,5 (142,8;
185,8) g/m2, p<0,05), highest prevalence of LV hypertrophy (LVH)
(100,0%, 90,0% of concentric LVH), moderate decrease in E' velocity (9,95
(8,32; 10,60) cm/sec), relatively low PWP (9,23 (8,83; 13,03) mmHg) and
70,0% prevalence of LVDD (60,0% of type I). Cluster 2 had LVMMI of
(116,9 (104,4; 163,1) g/m2), 55,0% prevalence of LVH plus 30,0% of
concentric remodeling, lowest E' (7,68 (6,50; 9,67) cm/sec, p<0,01), highest
PWP (12,26 (10,72; 13,12) mmHg, p<0,05) and highest rate of DD (85,0%,
70,0% of type I). Cluster 4 was associated with MMI of 121,4 (111,7; 140,5)
g/m2, 66,7% rate of LVH (equal for concentric and eccentric variants),
highest values of E' (11,04 (9,49; 12,00) cm/sec), lowest PWP (9,07 (7,04;
11,51) mmHg) and lowest prevalence of LVDD (66,7%, 50,0% of type I).
Cluster 3 (p>0,05 vs control group) had intermediate characteristics of mentioned
parameters.
Conclusion: Significant increase in IL-33 and IL-1β levels in hypertensive
patients independently of BMI was revealed. Increase in both cytokines'
levels was associated with highest rates of LVH and DD. Prevalent
increase in IL-1β was connected to the worst state of diastolic function
despite low rates of hypertrophy. Prevalent increase in IL-33 had the most
favorable influence on the severity of LVH as well as diastolic filling
(figure above).
