A novel coronavirus infection has been found to trigger a cytokine storm. Various anticytokine therapies have been used for the treatment. However, the impact of these interventions on ischemic heart disease remains unclear.</p> <p><bold>AIM:</bold> This study aimed to assess the impact of various anticytokine treatments initiated in the acute phase of novel coronavirus infection on ischemic heart disease post-COVID.</p> <p><bold>METHODS:</bold> The study included 272 patients with a history of ischemic heart disease. The patients had received various anticytokine therapies for novel coronavirus infection. They were followed up after recovering from novel coronavirus infection. The patients were stratified into two groups based on worsening of underlying ischemic heart disease (worsening vs no worsening).</p> <p><bold>RESULTS:</bold> The worsening of ischemic heart disease was significantly associated with novel coronavirus infection severity (χ<sup>2</sup><italic>df</italic> = 2 = 28.406; <italic>p</italic> &lt; 0.0001) and sex (in males, χ<sup>2</sup><italic>df</italic> = 1 = 7.310; <italic>p</italic> = 0.007). Patients who had severe novel coronavirus infection and received combination anticytokine therapy in the acute phase of the infection were less likely to experience worsening of ischemic heart disease compared to those who received monotherapy for cytokine storm (<italic>p</italic><sub>1,4</sub> = 0.016; <italic>p</italic><sub>3,4</sub> = 0.024). A proposed model with a 68.8% accuracy rate estimates the worsening probability of ischemic heart disease after novel coronavirus infection using several factors, including sex, age, severity of symptoms, and concurrent treatment.</p> <p><bold>CONCLUSION:</bold> The findings indicate that inflammation plays a crucial role in ischemic heart disease and that the severity of novel coronavirus infection has a significant impact on its clinical course. Combination treatment for the cytokine storm that is associated with novel coronavirus infection in patients with underlying ischemic heart disease is correlated with better prognosis.</p></abstract><trans-abstract xml:lang="ru"><p><bold>Обоснование.</bold> Результаты современных исследований показывают наличие причинно-следственной связи между воспалением и течением атерогенеза и ишемической болезнью сердца. Новую коронавирусную инфекцию зачастую сопровождало развитие «цитокинового шторма». Для его купирования использовали различные варианты антицитокиновой терапии, при этом последствия их применения на течение ишемической болезни сердца в дальнейшем не оценивали.</p> <p><bold>Цель</bold> — изучить влияние различных вариантов антицитокиновой терапии в период острого заболевания новой коронавирусной инфекцией на течение ишемической болезни сердца в постковидном периоде.</p> <p><bold>Материалы и методы.</bold> Обследованы 272 пациента с ранее верифицированной ишемической болезнью сердца, получавшие различные варианты антицитокиновой терапии во время новой коронавирусной инфекции. После перенесенной новой коронавирусной инфекции проведено повторное обследование, и на основании критериев ухудшения пациенты были разделены на две группы (с ухудшением и без ухудшения течения ишемической болезни сердца) для последующего сравнения течения этой болезни.</p> <p><bold>Результаты и их обсуждение.</bold> Ухудшение течения ишемической болезни сердца было значимо связано со степенью тяжести новой коронавирусной инфекции (χ<sup>2</sup><italic>df</italic> = 2 = 28,406; <italic>р</italic> &lt; 0,0001) и полом (у мужчин — χ<sup>2</sup><italic>df</italic> = 1 = 7,310; <italic>р</italic> = 0,007). У пациентов, перенесших новую коронавирусную инфекцию тяжелой степени и получавших комбинированную антицитокиновую терапию во время острого периода новой коронавирусной инфекции, была меньшая вероятность ухудшения течения ишемической болезни сердца по сравнению с монотерапией «цитокинового шторма» (<italic>р</italic><sub>1,4</sub> = 0,016; <italic>p</italic><sub>3,4</sub> = 0,024). Предложена модель, которая на основании половой принадлежности, возраста, тяжести перенесенной новой коронавирусной инфекции и проводимой терапии позволяет с точностью 68,8% предсказать течение ишемической болезни сердца после новой коронавирусной инфекции.</p> <p><bold>Заключение.</bold> Полученные результаты подтверждают значимость воспаления в течении ишемической болезни сердца, а также влияния тяжести, перенесенной новой коронавирусной инфекции, на ее течение. Использование комбинированной терапии «цитокинового шторма», возникающего при новой коронавирусной инфекции у пациентов, страдающих ишемической болезнью сердца, ассоциировано с лучшим прогнозом ее течения.</p></trans-abstract><trans-abstract xml:lang="zh"><p/></trans-abstract><kwd-group xml:lang="en"><kwd>novel coronavirus infection</kwd><kwd>ischemic heart disease</kwd><kwd>cytokine storm</kwd><kwd>combination anticytokine therapy</kwd><kwd>glucocorticoids</kwd><kwd>interleukin 6 inhibitors</kwd><kwd>Janus kinase inhibitors</kwd></kwd-group><kwd-group xml:lang="ru"><kwd>COVID-19</kwd><kwd>ишемическая болезнь сердца</kwd><kwd>цитокиновый шторм</kwd><kwd>комбинированная антицитокиновая терапия</kwd><kwd>глюкокортикостероиды</kwd><kwd>ингибиторы интерлейкина 6</kwd><kwd>ингибиторы янус киназ</kwd></kwd-group><funding-group/></article-meta></front><body></body><back><ref-list><ref id="B1"><label>1.</label><mixed-citation>Gumilevskiy BYu, Moskalev AV, Gumilevskay OP, et al.
