NURS 7053 ALTERATIONS OF CARDIOVASCULAR FUNCTION I Hypertension, Dyslipidemia, Atherosclerosis Learning Outcomes By the end of this module, you will be able to: 1.Explain the fundamental concepts of cardiovascular physiology relevant to hypertension, dyslipidemia, and atherosclerosis. 2.Analyze the pathophysiological mechanisms underlying hypertension, dyslipidemia, and atherosclerosis, including their interrelationships. 3.Differentiate between the clinical manifestations of these conditions based on their underlying pathophysiology. 4.Evaluate diagnostic approaches and treatment strategies for hypertension, dyslipidemia, and atherosclerosis, justifying choices based on pathophysiological principles. Alt CV I HYPERTENSION CASE INTRODUCTION In clinic today, you meet a 52-year-old parent of two who works as a corporate manager. They've come in because of persistent headaches and occasional dizziness that's been affecting their work. "I know my blood pressure isn't great," they tell you, pulling out a log showing repeated measurements around 162/94 mmHg. "But between the long hours at work and family commitments, I barely have time to eat, let alone cook. I practically live on coffee and fast food." You notice they appear fatigued and their BMI is 31. While reviewing their family history, they mention both their parent and sibling developed hypertension in their 50s.

They've been monitoring their blood glucose as recommended, but today's lipid panel results are concerning: total cholesterol 245 mg/dL, LDL 162 mg/dL, HDL 32 mg/dL, and triglycerides 200 mg/dL. "I spend most of my day at my computer," they explain. "I tried changing my diet when I got the diabetes diagnosis, but honestly, I'm confused about what I should be eating. Everything seems to affect my blood sugar." They work remotely and admit that some days they barely leave their desk. Types of Lipids Triglycerides Cholesterol Dyslipidemia Types of Lipoproteins Chylomicrons – Transport dietary lipids from the small intestine to other regions of the body Chylomicrons VLDL – Transport endogenous triglycerides and cholesterol to the tissues Triglycerides VLDL LDL Tissue capillary Dyslipidemia Types of Lipoproteins IDL – Degraded VLDL, used to form LDL LDL – Transport endogenous cholesterol in the plasma to the tissues Triglycerides VLDL LDL Tissue capillary Dyslipidemia Types of Lipoproteins HDL – Transport lipids from the tissues to the liver to be metabolized Cholesterol/Phospholipids HDL Tissue capillary Additional Functions: Participates in endothelial repair Reduces clot formation Dyslipidemia Risk Factors Genetic predisposition Dietary factors Obesity Lack of exercise Hyperinsulinemia/diabetes mellitus Dyslipidemia RETURNING TO OUR CASE A 45-year-old IT professional has come for follow- up after their recent type 2 diabetes diagnosis. Question: How They've been monitoring their blood glucose as does this recommended, but today's lipid panel results are patient’s diabetes concerning: total cholesterol 245 mg/dL, LDL 162 affect their lipid mg/dL, HDL 32 mg/dL, and triglycerides 200 profile at a mg/dL. "I spend most of my day at my molecular level? computer," they explain. "I tried changing my diet when I got the diabetes diagnosis, but honestly, I'm confused about what I should be eating. Everything seems to affect my blood sugar." They work remotely and admit that some days they barely leave their desk. Physiology of LDL Metabolism First step of cholesterol production requires the enzyme HMG-CoA reductase In the hepatocytes, cholesterol and varying amount of other lipids bind to an apolipoprotein to form VLDL VLDL is excreted into the bloodstream by exocytosis, then converted to IDL and eventually LDL To uptake LDL into its cytoplasm a cell must have (or synthesize) LDL- receptors Dyslipidemia Physiology of LDL Metabolism From: http://www.nature.com/nrg/journal/v10/n2/fig_tab/nrg2481_F1.html Dyslipidemia RETURNING TO OUR CASE A 45-year-old IT professional has come for follow- up after their recent type 2 diabetes diagnosis. Discussion: They've been monitoring their blood glucose as Explain how this recommended, but today's lipid panel results are patient’s concerning: total cholesterol 245 mg/dL, LDL 162 metabolic status mg/dL, HDL 32 mg/dL, and triglycerides 200 affects LDL mg/dL. "I spend most of my day at my metabolism computer," they explain. "I tried changing my diet when I got the diabetes diagnosis, but honestly, I'm confused about what I should be eating. Everything seems to affect my blood sugar." They work remotely and admit that some days they barely leave their desk. Laboratory Evaluation Elevated LDL-C and/or VLDL Low HDL-C Elevated cholesterol Elevated triglycerides Dyslipidemia RETURNING TO OUR CASE A 45-year-old IT professional has come for follow- up after their recent type 2 diabetes diagnosis. Question: Which They've been monitoring their blood glucose as lipid values are recommended, but today's lipid panel results are abnormal? Why concerning: total cholesterol 245 mg/dL, LDL 162 might they be out mg/dL, HDL 32 mg/dL, and triglycerides 200 of normal range? mg/dL. "I spend most of my day at my computer," they explain. "I tried changing my diet when I got the diabetes diagnosis, but honestly, I'm confused about what I should be eating. Everything seems to affect my blood sugar."

ATHEROSCLEROSIS CASE INTRODUCTION Your next patient is 60 years old and has been having chest pain that comes and goes, especially when climbing the stairs at work where they're a housekeeper. "It's probably nothing," they say, "but my daughter insisted I come in." They've had high blood pressure and cholesterol for years but stopped taking medications because they were too expensive. You notice the distinct smell of cigarette smoke, and they acknowledge smoking a pack a day for the past 30 years. During the exam, they need to stop and catch their breath after minimal activity. They're worried about missing work for appointments but are becoming increasingly concerned about their symptoms. Definition & Causes Chronic disease of the arteries characterized by abnormal thickening and hardening of the vessel wall. caused by Endothelial Injury and Dyslipidemia Atherosclerosis Risk Factors Hypertension Tobacco use Diabetes mellitus Infection Autoimmune disease/immune reactions Mechanisms Increased LDL levels Decrease in the release of Hyperhomocystinemia vasodilatory mediators Increased tendency for the blood to clot Atherosclerosis RETURNING TO OUR CASE Your next patient is 60 years old and has been having chest pain that comes and goes, Discussion: Identify the especially when climbing the stairs at work modifiable and non- where they're a housekeeper.
