DYNAMICS OF THE POLYUNSATURATED FATTY ACIDS VALUES IN THE BLOOD OF CHRONIC HEART FAILURE PATIENTS
Aim. To assess the dynamics of levels of eicosapentaenoic (EPA), docosahexaenoic (DHA), arachidonic (AA) and linoleic (LA) fatty acids (FA), omega-3 index, relation of omega-3/omega-6 polyunsaturated FA (PUFA) in the blood of decompensated chronic heart failure (CHF) patients under the standard mana...

| Summary: | Aim. To assess the dynamics of levels of eicosapentaenoic (EPA), docosahexaenoic (DHA), arachidonic (AA) and linoleic (LA) fatty acids (FA), omega-3 index, relation of omega-3/omega-6 polyunsaturated FA (PUFA) in the blood of decompensated chronic heart failure (CHF) patients under the standard management.Material and methods. The values of 22 FA were assessed in stable CHF (SCHF, n=12) and decompensated CHF (DCHF, n=24) and after decompensation treatment. The omega-3 index was calculated (relation of the sum of EPA and DHA to the sum of all FA) and relation of the sum of EPA and DHA to the sum of AA and LA.Results. Values of EPA and DHA, omega-3 index in DCHF group were lower in SCHF (0,085 [0,06;0,17] vs 0,26 [0,15;0,4] mM/mL, p=0,0005; 0,37 [0,16;0,62] vs 0,84 [0,55;1,10] mM/mL, p=0,004; 1,11 [0,65;2,11] vs 2,44 [1,80;3,71]%, p=0,0008, respectively). After the treatment of DCHF, levels of EPA and DHA, omega-3 index raised, and reached 0,16 [0,11;0,21] mM/mL, p=0,0016; 0,46 [0,35;0,76] mM/mL, p=0,045; 1,74 [1,14;2,42]%, p=0,043, respectively. Statistically significant differences of AA and LA in the blood of SCHF and DCHF were not found. With the treatment, there was increase of AA value growth (3,40 [2,56;4,91] mM/mL, p=0,011) and tendency of LA increase (9,13 [5,08;11,28] mM/mL, p=0,09). Dynamics of omega-3/omega-6 relation witnessed the predominant part of omega-6 of PUFA in all participants, especially in DCHF. After treated fluid retention syndrome in patients this relation changed due to the raise of omega-3 PUFA.Conclusion. In the DCHF there is significant increase of omega-3 index in the blood, concentrations of EPA and DHA. Standard therapy of CHF decompensation supports the increase of EPA, DHA, AA, omega-3 index. Mechanisms of the revealed PUFA dynamics in CHF patients, including the treatment outcomes, are subject for further investigation. |
