INTRODUCTION: Acute coronary syndromes (ACS) and sudden death cause most ischemic heart disease (IHD)- related deaths, which represent 1.8 million deaths per year, with similar numbers of men and women dying from coronary artery disease (CAD). It’s known that inflammation plays crucial role in atherosclerotic plaque formation and its destabilization. The purpose of this study is to evaluate of white blood cells count in its subpopulation in patients with ACS and modifiable cardiovascular risk factors – arterial hypertension and 2 type Diabetes Mellitus (DM). MATERIAL AND METHODS: In this observational cohort trial we observed of 184 patients with ACS. All patients were randomized into four groups: 1st group - 42 patients with ACS without arterial hypertension (AH) or DM; 2nd group – 56 patients with ACS and previous AH; 3rd group – 42 patients with ACS and 2 type DM; and 4th group – 44 patients with ACS and AH and DM. We studied of leukocytes count and their subpopulations in blood. RESULTS: The mean white blood cells count was significant higher in patients with ASC, compared with control group: 8.23 [6.50; 9.40] vs 5.49 [5.20; 5.70] (p<0.001). Similarly, ACS caused increase of leukocytes subpopulation count in blood. The significant higher count of white blood cells was observed in patients with ACS and co-morbidities: 2 type DM and its association with AH. In patients with ACS and previous AH we observed significant lower neutrophils count (p<0.05), but increased quantity of lymphocytes, compared with patients with ACS without co-morbidities (p<0.001). DM and its association with AH was characterized of neutrophils, lymphocytes and monocytes counts growth. CONCLUSIONS:ACS is characterized of raised white blood cells count and its population, especially in cases of association with 2 type Diabetes Mellitus.
