OBJECTIVE

Introduction: Chronic diseases of the upper respiratory tract in children and teenagers, such as chronic tonsillitis is quite common in pediatric populations, accompanied by changes in reactivity, causing a risk of complications. Due to the fact that the child's body resistance to acute infectious diseases depends on the sufficiency of trace elements, then at present stage greatly increased interest in deeper study of exchange of macro- and microelements in the human body in normal and pathological conditions. The aim: To study the dynamics of zinc, iron, potassium and magnesium in adolescents with disorders of the cardiovascular system with chronic tonsillitis.

METHODS

Materials and methods: It was examined 63 patients with chronic tonsillitis, among them- 31 children suffer from chronic tonsillitis off-damage to the cardiovascular system (I group), 32 patients with disorders of the cardiovascular system against the background of chronic tonsillitis (II group). The content of trace elements zinc, iron, minerals potassium and magnesium was analyzed. The measurement and calculation were done according to AAS-SPECTR program. Analysis and statistics treatment was done on using application programs STATISTICA 7.0 and MS Excel XP.

RESULTS

Results: In result of investigation it was found a violation of trace element composition in the blood serum. Thus, in patients with chronic tonsillitis without cardiovascular system damage during hospitalization was observed a significant decrease in the concentration of iron to (15,47 ± 1,12) mmol/l. Similar changes were observed with the concentration of zinc in the blood serum. In patients with chronic tonsillitis without cardiovascular system damage during hospitalization was observed a significant decrease in the concentration of iron to (15,47 ± 1,12) mmol/l. Similar changes were observed with the concentration of zinc in the blood serum of patients of I groups during hospitalization (10,89 ± 0,57mmol/l) and was significantly lower compared with the data of healthy children (18,40 ± 0,71 mmol/l (p <0.05)).

CONCLUSIONS

Сonclusions: It should be noted that children with tonsillogene cardiac lesions during hospitalization have a significant decreasing in the level of magnesium compared with indicators of children without pathology of the cardiovascular system. After treatment, the normalization of trace elements iron, zinc, magnesium did not happen, moreover, significant changes were observed in patients with heart disease against the background of chronic tonsillitis.
