Traditional Risk Factors

Rheumatoid arthritis (RA) is a chronic inflammatory disease, associated with increased mortality and morbidity due to the higher cardiovascular risk in these patients. Traditional risk factors are not the only answer for the accelerated atherosclerosis. In long term prospective study, we investigated the relationship between asymptomatic atherosclerosis and traditional risk factors as well as inflammatory markers in patients with RA and matched healthy controls. We studied the laboratory test results, the concentrations of inflammatory mediators, matrix metalloproteases (MMP) and inflammation markers in the total of 70 (60 at follow-up) premenopausal healthy women with RA and 40 (34 at follow-up) matched controls’. We used the B-mode ultrasound imaging of carotid arteries for detection of asymptomatic atherosclerosis. Correlation with different factors was evaluated. Statistically significant higher values of inflammatory markers such as selective adhesion molecules ICAM & VCAM, interleukin 6 (IL-6), tumor necrosis factor alpha (TNF-alpha) and MMP-3 in patients` group were found in the follow-up study. More plaques were found in the patients’ group (42.4% vs. 12.9%; p=0.005), as compared with the controls’ group. The patients had also higher values of cIMT (p=0.001). Using bivariate regression analysis only VCAM was found as a prognostic factor for plaque occurrence (r= 0. 341, p=0.016), but not for cIMT (r= -0.130, p=0.327) in premenopausal female patients with RA after the follow-up. Therefore, the asymptomatic atherosclerosis is accelerated in premenopausal women with RA. The results of our follow-up study showed the association between the inflammation and accelerated atherosclerosis. Furthermore, VCAM was found to have statistically significant correlation with plaque occurrence in these patients.

Early Surgical Treatment

✓ The authors review 38 cases of hypertensive intracerebral hemorrhage operated on within 7 hours after the apoplectic attack. Microsurgical technique was used for hemostasis and evacuation of the hematoma. At the 6-month follow-up study, 34 patients could walk unaided or with a cane, one was confined in bed, and three had died.

Main Components

Scanning microscopy was used to study the surface of human gallstones and the surface of fractures. The specimens were obtained by operation, washed with water, dried at room temperature and shadowcasted with carbon and aluminum. Most of the specimens belong to patients from a series of X-ray follow-up study, examined during the last twenty years. So it was possible to evaluate approximately the age of these gallstones and to get information on the intensity of growing and solving.Cholesterol, a group of bile pigment substances and different salts of calcium, are the main components of human gallstones. By X-ray diffraction technique, infra-red spectroscopy and by chemical analysis it was demonstrated that all three components can be found in any gallstone. In the presence of water cholesterol crystallizes in pane-like plates of the triclinic crystal system.
