  • Title: [Particular features of the concurrent course of arterial hypertension and ulcer in elderly patients].
    Author: Lazebnik LB, Mikheeva OM, Komiccarenko IA, Aldoshina MA.
    Journal: Eksp Klin Gastroenterol; 2004; (6):11-6, 162. PubMed ID: 16259435.
    Abstract:
    The article presents a clinical course analysis in elderly patients suffering concurrently from arterial hypertension and ulcer as well as a study of the state of the mucous coat of the stomach and duodenum at the endoscopy and morphological assessment. It gives data of the daily monitoring of arterial pressure, central hemodynamics and indices of the lipid blood composition and hemorheology. There was a comparative analysis, which established the direct dependence of the ulcerous defect area on the atherogeneity index. Data of the morphological assessment seem to be most interesting as this study revealed abnormalities in microcirculation in the mucous coat of the stomach. It should be noted that disorders in the blood supply of the mucous coat of the stomach play a considerable role in the formation of ulcers in elderly patients with long-term arterial hypertension, and semination with Helicobacter pylori is very rare.
