PROINFLAMMATORY CYTOKINE LEVELS AND INDEXES OF ENDOTHELIAL FUNCTION IN PATIENTS WITH OSTEOARTHRITIS IS DEPENDENT ON THE PAIN INTENSITY
Prevalence of hypertension in patients with osteoarthritis is rather high. According to published data, a combination of osteoarthritis and hypertension is registered in 45 to 80% of the patients, dependent on the age group. Pathogenesis of arterial hypertension developing in patients with osteoarth...

We studied systolic and diastolic blood pressure, levels of some cytokines (IL-1β, IL-6, IL-18, TNFα) and markers of endothelial function (EDN1, vWF activity) in 83 patients (mean age 45.7±6.3 years) with osteoarthritis of knee and hip joints (radiographic stage II-III) accompanied by chronic pain.

Group 1 consisted of 27 patients with mild pain (the pain index ≤ 3 points), the 2nd group included 34 persons with moderate pain (3 to 7 points), and the 3rd group consisted of 22 people with highest pain ratings (pain index ≥ 7). Increased pain intensity correlated with elevation of systolic and diastolic blood pressure.

Minimal values of cytokines were observed in patients with mild pain, whereas maximal levels, in the patients with severe pain and arterial hypertension. Inflammatory mediators are able to induce activation and injury of endothelium causing its dysfunction. vWF activity and EDN1 contents increased in all the studied groups, along with increased pain intensity. Higher EDN1 concentration and vWF activity may be considered objective signs of endotheliosis in the osteoarthritis patients. In turn, endothelial dysfunction is among major pathophysiological mechanisms of arterial hypertension.
