Однако информации о влиянии РТМ на другие органы и системы, а именно – на поражение сердца при ССД, пока недостаточно.Цель исследования – оценить динамику признаков поражения сердца у больных ССД через год после инициации терапии РТМ.Материал и методы. В статье приведены данные об изменении кардиальных нарушений у 71 больного ССД через год после назначения РТМ.Результаты и обсуждение. Частота нарушений ритма и проводимости сердца, а также диастолической дисфункции не изменилась. В то же время в динамике на фоне снижения общей активности заболевания отмечалось достоверное увеличение фракции изгнания (ФИ) левого желудочка и уменьшение выраженности одышки, что коррелировало с улучшением легочной функции (достоверное увеличение форсированной жизненной емкости легких). Детально рассмотрены результаты лечения трех больных с преимущественным поражением сердца, связанным с ССД (ишемическая болезнь сердца и гипертоническая болезнь были исключены). У них отмечалась отчетливая положительная динамика в виде нарастания ФИ, уменьшения выраженности нарушений ритма сердца, уменьшения хронической сердечной недостаточности, улучшения качества жизни, а также продемонстрирована синхронность снижения активности заболевания, уменьшения выраженности индурации кожных покровов, улучшения функции легких и стабилизации систолического давления в легочной артерии.Заключение. РТМ в комплексе с традиционной терапией можно рассматривать как потенциально эффективный препарат для лечения поражения сердца при ССД.</p></abstract><trans-abstract xml:lang="en"><p>As of now, there has been a great body of data on the use of rituximab (RTM) in systemic sclerosis (SS), mainly on its positive effect on skin fibrosis and lung injury. However, information is still scarce about the effect of RTM on other organs and systems, namely the heart affected by SS.Objective: to assess the time course of changes in the signs of heart involvement in SS patients one year after initiation of RTM therapy.Subjects and methods. The paper gives data on changes in cardiac disorders in 71 patients with SS one year after the prescription of RTM.Results and discussion. The rate of cardiac rhythm and conduction disorders and diastolic dysfunction was unchanged. At the same time, a significant increase in left ventricular ejection fraction (EF) and a reduction in the severity of dyspnea was achieved, which correlated with improved lung function (a significant rise in forced vital capacity). The results of treatment in three patients with predominant heart involvement associated with SS (coronary heart disease and hypertension were ruled out) were considered in detail. These patients displayed pronounced positive changes as increased EF, less severe cardiac arrhythmias, reduced chronic heart failure, better quality of life, as well as the synchronicity of lower disease activity, less skin induction, improved lung function, and stabilized pulmonary artery systolic pressure.Conclusion. RTM in combination with traditional therapy can be considered as a potentially effective drug for the treatment of heart involvement in SS.</p></trans-abstract><kwd-group xml:lang="ru"><kwd>системная склеродермия</kwd><kwd>поражение сердца</kwd><kwd>ритуксимаб</kwd></kwd-group><kwd-group xml:lang="en"><kwd>systemic scleroderma</kwd><kwd>heart involvement</kwd><kwd>rituximab</kwd></kwd-group></article-meta></front><back><ref-list><title>References</title><ref id="cit1"><label>1</label><citation-alternatives><mixed-citation xml:lang="ru">Гусева НГ.
