Материалы и методы. Обследованы 59 пациентов с АГ в возрасте 35-60 лет, из них 29 больных высокого и 30 больных очень высокого ССР (без АГТ в течение 2 нед до исследования). Проведены оценка поражения органов-мишеней АГ, лазерная допплеровская флоуметрия (ЛДФ) с регистрацией исходных параметров перфузии, анализом амплитудно-частотного спектра ЛДФ-грамм для оценки состояния «активных» и «пассивных» тонусформирующих звеньев модуляции микрокровотока, оценка параметров центрального артериального давления (ЦАД), локальной жесткости общих сонных артерий и фотоплетизмография (ФТПГ). Повторное исследование проведено после лечения БРА в течение 12 нед. Результаты. Выявлено достоверное повышение амплитуды эндотелиального ритма и коэффициента вариации у больных АГ очень высокого риска по сравнению с группой пациентов высокого риска по данным ЛДФ. В группе больных АГ очень высокого риска уровень ЦАД, индекс аугментации и показатели локальной жесткости были выше (недостоверно), показатель растяжимости сонных артерий достоверно снижен. По данным ФТПГ в группе очень высокого риска отмечено достоверное ухудшение состояния крупных сосудов. На фоне терапии кандесартаном в течение 12 нед целевые цифры АД достигнуты у 80% больных, при проведении повторного обследования отмечено статистически значимое улучшение состояния крупных артерий, показатели микроциркуляции также улучшились, однако достоверных значений не достигнуто. Заключение. Полученные данные свидетельствуют о том, что по мере увеличения степени ССР у больных АГ происходит прогрессивное ухудшение как состояния крупных сосудов, так и состояния сосудов микроциркуляторного русла. На фоне краткосрочной АГТ БРА удается достигнуть улучшения функции крупных сосудов у пациентов с АГ очень высокого риска, состояние микроциркуляторного русла при этом значимо не изменяется.</p></abstract><trans-abstract xml:lang="en"><p>Aim: to assess the state of the large blood vessels and skin microcirculatory vessels and the effects of angiotensin II receptor blockers (ARB) on them in hypertensive patients with high and very high cardiovascular risk (CVR). Subjects and methods. We examined 59 hypertensive patients aged 35-60 years, of which 29 high CVR subjects and 30 very high CVR (without antihypertensive therapy within 2 weeks prior to the study). In all subjects the evaluation of target organ damage, laser Doppler flowmetry (LDF) with initial perfusion parameters registration and amplitude-frequency spectrum of LDF-grams analysis, registration of central blood pressure, local stiffness parameters and photoplethysmography (PTMG) were performed. The second study was carried out after 2 weeks of antihypertensive treatment with ARB. Results. A significant increase in endothelial rhythm amplitude and coefficient of variation in very high risk hypertensive patients in comparison with a group of high-risk patients was found. In the group of very high-risk hypertensive patients central arterial pressure, augmentation index and local stiffness values were higher (n/a), the rate of carotid arteries extensibility was significantly reduced. There was a significant large vessels impairment in very high risk group according PTMG data. Target blood pressure level achieved in up to 80% of patients after 2 weeks treatment. During the re-examination a statistically significant improvement in the large arteries was found, LDF parameters also improved, but significant values was not reached. Conclusion. The findings suggest that with increasing degree of CVR in patients with hypertension there is a progressive deterioration of both large vessels and microcirculation state. After short-term antihypertensive therapy the function of large vessels improve in very high risk hypertensive patients, but the state of the microvasculature not changes significantly.</p></trans-abstract><kwd-group xml:lang="ru"><kwd>артериальная гипертония</kwd><kwd>микроциркуляция</kwd><kwd>лазерная допплеровская флоуметрия</kwd><kwd>жесткость крупных сосудов</kwd><kwd>сердечно-сосудистый риск</kwd></kwd-group><kwd-group xml:lang="en"><kwd>arterial hypertension</kwd><kwd>microcirculation</kwd><kwd>laser Doppler flowmetry</kwd><kwd>vascular stiffness</kwd><kwd>cardiovascular risk</kwd></kwd-group></article-meta></front><back><ref-list><title>References</title><ref id="cit1"><label>1</label><citation-alternatives><mixed-citation xml:lang="ru">Laurent S, Boutouyrie P, Asmar R et al.
