Summary:Aims: to study the target organ damage in patients with metabolic syndrome (MS) and arterial hypertension (AH) 1 degree. Design and methods. We included 20 healthy volunteers and 60 patients with MS, AH 1 degree and dyslipidemia. Office blood pressure, 24-hour ambulatory blood pressure monitoring, measurements of the endothelial vasoactive mediators, carotid ultrasonography and echocardiography had performed at baseline. Results. The majority of patients with MS and AH 1 degree had metabolic abnormalities; the levels of vasoactive mediators were higher in comparison with control group; 30% of patients had signs of atherosclerotic process in carotid arteries; 40% of patients had left ventricular hypertrophy. Conclusion: the results showed high prevalence of target organ damage in patients with MS and AH 1 degree.
