LIVER STEATOSIS, LIPID PROFILE AND URIC ACID LEVEL IN ELDERLY PEOPLE WITH CORONARY HEART DISEASE
Statistically significant association between fatty liver disease, dyslipoproteinemia, hyperuricemia and severity of liver steatosis in elderly and senile patients with coronary heart disease (CHD) was revealed. There is statistically frequent liver steatosis of various degree (84,4 ± 3,4%) in patients with CHD, in men it developed more often (91,3 ± 4,2 versus 5,4 ± 5,2% in women) and earlier(65,8 ± 3,4 years versus 72,5 ± 2,5 years in women). There was medium association between uric acid level and the atherogenicity index and medium correlation between high density lipoproteins and uric acid level in patients with CHD and liver steatosis. Uric acid level in patients with CHD and liver steatosis of the 1-3 degree was higher than in patients with CHD without liver steatosis. In patients with CHD older than 75 years liver steatosis of the 3 degree was more common than in patients with CHD older younger than 75 years.
