Association of Arterial Hypertension with Hepatobiliary Pathology: The Occurrence of Comorbidity and Features of Metabolic Processes.

ABSTRACT: Comorbidity of hypertension and hepatobiliary pathology has negative medical and social consequences, including an increase in the indicators of hospital admissions, disability and mortality. OBJECTIVE:The aim was to study the occurrence of hypertension combined with hepatobiliary diseases depending on social status, gender and age in 2003-2017 and their influence on indicators of metabolic processes in patients with a therapeutic profile. METHODS:A cross-sectional study using the inpatients' medical record database of the clinic of Federal Research Centre for Basic and Translational Medicine (Novosibirsk, Russia), which collects demographics, diagnoses (using ICD-10 codes), procedures and examinations of all inpatients from 2003-2017 was conducted. The incidence of comorbidity of hypertension and hepatobiliary pathology depending on age, gender and social status, based on the analysis of 13496 medical records was examined. A comparative analysis of biochemical parameters characterizing the main types of metabolism (lipid, protein, carbohydrate and purine) was carried out in 3 groups of patients: with hypertension; with hepatobiliary pathology, and with a combined pathology. RESULTS:During the years 2003-2005, there was the greatest frequency of this comorbidity in workers, in women, in the age group 60 years and older. In 2009-2017, the highest incidence was observed in the male administrative staff. In patients with this comorbidity, more pronounced changes in carbohydrate, protein, lipid and purine metabolism were found in comparison with groups of patients with isolated diseases. CONCLUSION:The results highlight the need to improve the system of prevention and treatment of comorbidity taking into account sex, age, occupation and features of metabolism.
