JOURNAL OF HAZARDOUS MATERIALS 2024; 466:133482. [PMID: 38246055 DOI: 10.1016/j.jhazmat.2024.133482] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/05/2023] [Revised: 12/22/2023] [Accepted: 01/08/2024] [Indexed: 01/23/2024]
Abstract
To assess the associations of ambient specific-size PM with brachial-ankle pulse wave velocity (baPWV) and the progression of arterial stiffness. Participants were included from the Kailuan study, the cross-sectional study involved 36,486 participants, while the longitudinal study enrolled 16,871 participants. PM exposures was assessed through satellite-based random forest approaches at a 1 km resolution. Initial observations indicated a link between baseline baPWV and heightened levels of PM1, PM2.5, and PM10 exposure, and greater effects were observed for PM1 (β: 22.52, 95% CI: 18.14-26.89), followed by PM2.5 (β: 9.76, 95% CI: 7.52-12.00), and PM10 (β: 8.88, 95% CI: 7.32-10.45). Furthermore, the growth rate of baPWV was higher in participants exposed to high levels of PM1 exposure (β: 2.77, 95% CI: 1.19-4.35), succeeded by PM2.5 and PM10. Throughout a median follow-up period of 4.04 years, arterial stiffness was diagnosed in 1709 subjects. Long-term exposure to PM was linked with an increased risk of incident arterial stiffness, estimated HR for fixed 10 µg/m3 increments in annual average PM1 was 2.20 (95% CI: 2.01-2.42), PM2.5 was 1.48 (95% CI: 1.41-1.55), and PM10 1.32 (95% CI: 1.27-1.36). PM had a greater impact on men and older individuals (P for interaction <0.001). Long-term exposures to ambient PM1, PM2.5, and PM10 were positively associated with baPWV and an increased risk of arterial stiffness. Higher estimated effects were observed for PM1 than PM2.5 and PM10.

Physical Training vs. Perindopril Treatment on Arterial Stiffening of Spontaneously Hypertensive Rats: A Proteomic Analysis and Possible Mechanisms. Biomedicines 2023; 11:biomedicines11051381. [PMID: 37239052 DOI: 10.3390/biomedicines11051381] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/27/2023] [Revised: 04/21/2023] [Accepted: 05/02/2023] [Indexed: 05/28/2023] Open
Abstract
(1) Background: Arterial stiffness is an important predictor of cardiovascular events. Perindopril and physical exercise are important in controlling hypertension and arterial stiffness, but the mechanisms are unclear. (2) Methods: Thirty-two spontaneously hypertensive rats (SHR) were evaluated for eight weeks: SHRC (sedentary); SHRP (sedentary treated with perindopril-3 mg/kg) and SHRT (trained). Pulse wave velocity (PWV) analysis was performed, and the aorta was collected for proteomic analysis. (3) Results: Both treatments determined a similar reduction in PWV (-33% for SHRP and -23% for SHRT) vs. SHRC, as well as in BP. Among the altered proteins, the proteomic analysis identified an upregulation of the EH domain-containing 2 (EHD2) protein in the SHRP group, required for nitric oxide-dependent vessel relaxation. The SHRT group showed downregulation of collagen-1 (COL1). Accordingly, SHRP showed an increase (+69%) in the e-NOS protein level and SHRT showed a lower COL1 protein level (-46%) compared with SHRC. (4) Conclusions: Both perindopril and aerobic training reduced arterial stiffness in SHR; however, the results suggest that the mechanisms can be distinct. While treatment with perindopril increased EHD2, a protein involved in vessel relaxation, aerobic training decreased COL1 protein level, an important protein of the extracellular matrix (ECM) that normally enhances vessel rigidity.

Vainer BG. Radial artery pulse wave velocity: a new characterization technique and the instabilities associated with the respiratory phase and breath-holding. Physiol Meas 2023; 44. [PMID: 36657177 DOI: 10.1088/1361-6579/acb4dd] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/28/2022] [Accepted: 01/19/2023] [Indexed: 01/20/2023]
Abstract
Objective. Pulse wave velocity (PWV) is a key diagnostic parameter of the cardiovascular system's state. However, approaches aimed at PWV characterization often suffer from inevitable drawbacks. Statistical results demonstrating how closely PWV in the radial artery (RA) and the respiration phase correlate, as well as RA PWV evolution during breath-holding (BH), have not yet been presented in the literature. The aims of this study are (a) to propose a simple robust technique for measuring RA PWV, (b) to reveal the phase relation between the RA PWV and spontaneous breathing, and (c) to disclose the influence of BH on the RA PWV.Approach.The high-resolution remote breathing monitoring method Sorption-Enhanced Infrared Thermography (SEIRT) and the new technique aimed at measuring RA PWV described in this paper were used synchronously, and their measurement data were processed simultaneously.Main results. Spontaneous breathing leaves a synchronous 'trace' on the RA PWV. The close linear correlation of the respiration phase and the phase of concomitant RA PWV changes is statistically confirmed in five tested people (Pearson's r is of the order of 0.5-0.8, P < 0.05). The BH appreciably affects the RA PWV. A phenomenon showing that the RA PWV is not indifferent to hypoxia is observed for the first time.Significance.The proposed technique for RA PWV characterization has high prospects in biomedical diagnostics. The presented pilot study deserves attention in the context of the mutual interplay between respiratory and cardiovascular systems. It may also be useful in cases where peripheral pulse wave propagation helps assess respiratory function.
