The general context of the study is to review the characteristics of the course of chronic heart failure (CHF) in persons infected with the human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) as a part of a single-stage screening clinical trial.Aim: To determine the features of the CHF course in HIV-infected patients, depending on the presence of thrombocytopenia (TP).Material and Methods. In a multidisciplinary hospital, 240 patients with HIV infection were examined for four years, where a cohort of patients with CHF (160 people) was identified, further divided into groups of patients with TP (107 people) and without TP (53 people). Patients underwent the same amount of research, including echocardiography, non-invasive arteriography, and a detailed laboratory examination.Results. TP in patients with CHF and HIV infection is more common in smokers and people with alcohol dependence and is associated with hemodynamic disorders in the form of higher systolic and diastolic blood pressure, left atrium increase. With TP, the values of NT-proBNP in blood plasma are higher, and in the blood serum - tissue inhibitor of metalloproteinases-1, urea, bilirubin, while the concentration of sodium and potassium ions in the blood serum is lower. Anemia and leukopenia were more common in the group of patients with thrombocytopenia. Patients with TP are more adherent to taking protease inhibitors and non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs.Conclusion. The frequency of CHF detection in patients with HIV infection against the background of TP is almost 2 times higher and is more often accompanied by dilatation of the left atrium, higher blood pressure, an increase in TIMP-1 and a decrease in the concentration of potassium ions in the blood serum. The concentration of NT-proBNP in blood plasma has a close inverse correlation with the number of platelets in patients with CHF and TP, and the presence of severe TP ≤ 30 × 109 cells/l increases the chances of developing CHF with low left ventricular ejection fraction by 10.8 times. Smoking, possible alcohol dependence and adherence to taking protease inhibitors and NSAIDs are significant factors associated with the development of thrombocytopenia in HIV-infected patients with CHF.
