Heart Rate Variability in Relation to Cardiovascular Autonomic Neuropathy Among Patients at an Urban Hospital in Kazakhstan.

In clinical practice, heart rate variability (HRV) has not been considered an indicator for the preventive assessment of cardiovascular autonomic neuropathy (CAN). The paper studies HRV in a large, randomly selected group. A cross-sectional study included a representative sample of 5707 Kazakhs aged 20 years and older from a total population of 25,454 attached to an urban clinic in the capital of Kazakhstan.

in the Faecal Microbiota Demonstrates a Direct Association with Arterial Hypertension in Individuals of the Kazakh Population Without Insulin Resistance.

The gut microbiota plays a fundamental role in the host's energy metabolism and the development of metabolic diseases such as arterial hypertension, insulin resistance, and atherosclerosis. Our study aimed to investigate the potential role of the gut microbiota in arterial hypertension among individuals of the Kazakh population without insulin resistance. 16S rRNA gene sequencing of faecal samples from 197 Kazakh subjects was performed.

Genome Variability for the Development of Coronary Heart Disease in Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus: A Bibliometric Analysis.

Introduction: Cardiovascular diseases (CVDs) stand as the foremost global cause of mortality, accounting for 32% of total deaths in 2019, with 85% attributed to heart attacks and strokes. Individuals with Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus (T2DM) exhibit an elevated susceptibility to coronary heart disease (CHD). In numerous studies, it has been established that genetic polymorphism of genes influences the onset, progression, and complications of coronary heart disease (CHD) and type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM).

Polymorphism rs564398 of the ANRIL Gene as a Coronary-Artery-Disease-Associated SNP in Diabetic Patients of the Kazakh Population.

Background/objectives: A cardiovascular complication of type 2 diabetes mellitus like coronary artery disease is influenced by a complex interplay between environmental, phenotypic, and genetic factors. The genetic mechanisms in the development of this pathology are not established. This study aims to evaluate the association of polymorphisms rs1011970, rs62560775, and rs564398 from the 9p21.

Annual survival of patients with end-stage chronic kidney disease on supportive hemodialysis and its correlates.

Objective: Aim: The aim of the study was to determine the relationship of residual renal function, markers of inflammation and protein-energy expenditure with annual survival in patients undergoing hemodialysis.

Patients And Methods: Materials and Methods: The work was a prospective cohort study and included 299 patient data. Residual kidney function was determined by urine volume of more than 250 ml per day to assess the effect.

Cardiac Autonomic Neuropathy Is Not Associated with Apolipoprotein E Gene Isoforms in the Kazakh Population: A Case-Control Study.

The absence of an early diagnosis of cardiac autonomic neuropathy might increase the risk of the disease, progressing to an irreversible stage. Therefore, this study aims to investigate the gene isoforms in patients with cardiac autonomic neuropathy to identify early markers for predicting this disease in the Kazakh population. A total of 147 patients with cardiac neuropathy and 153 controls were examined in this case-control study.

Genetic markers of cardiac autonomic neuropathy in the Kazakh population.

Background: Cardiac autonomic neuropathy (CAN) is a complication of diabetes mellitus (DM) that increases the risk of morbidity and mortality by disrupting cardiac innervation. Recent evidence suggests that CAN may manifest even before the onset of DM, with prediabetes and metabolic syndrome potentially serving as precursors. This study aims to identify genetic markers associated with CAN development in the Kazakh population by investigating the SNPs of specific genes.

A Bibliometric Analysis of Study of Associations of Certain Genotypes with the Cardiovascular Form of Diabetic Neuropathy.

This bibliometric analysis explores the landscape of research on the associations between specific genotypes and the cardiovascular form of diabetic neuropathy. Diabetes mellitus (DM) is a major contributor to premature mortality, primarily due to increased susceptibility to cardiovascular diseases. The global prevalence of DM is rising, with projections indicating further increases.

Gene polymorphisms and serum levels of BDNF and CRH in vitiligo patients.

Background: Vitiligo is one of the most common hypomelanoses, in which the destruction of functioning melanocytes causes depigmentation of the skin, hair and mucous membranes. The genes encrypting brain-derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF) and corticotropin releasing hormone (CRH) might be the conceivable contributors to the development of vitiligo. This study was aimed at investigation of the serum levels of BDNF and CRH as well as their selected single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) in vitiligo patients in comparison with the healthy controls.
