Overview
Long-term mortality in rheumatic diseases is caused mainly by increased cardiovascular risk, which cannot be explained only by traditional risk factors. Rheumatic disease seems to be an independent cardiovascular risk factor, which is influenced mainly by the type of therapy of rheumatic disease, blood lipid concentration and the magnitude of systemic inflammation. Moreover, lipid paradox plays a role, i.e. increased cardiovascular risk associates with lower total cholesterol, but low LDL-C does not mean reduced cardiovascular risk. To minimize cardiovascular risk of rheumatic patients the action for optimal control of the rheumatic disease activity, regular evaluation of cardiovascular risk, screening for asymptomatic atherosclerosis and implementation of appropriate dietary, regime and therapeutical arrangements using hypolipidemic therapy, mainly by statins, is needed.
Key words:
atherosclerosis, cardiovascular disease, cardiovascular risk, hypercholesterolemia, LDL-cholesterol, rheumatoid arthritis, psoriatic arthritis, spondyloarthritis
