Abstract
Background Data regarding the metabolic risk factors clustering on the risk of left ventricular diastolic dysfunction (LVDD) are lacking among people living at high altitude and under hypoxic conditions. In this study, we explored the association between metabolic risk factor clustering and LVDD among the Tibetan population of China. Methods and Results We conducted a cross‐sectional survey in a representative sample of 1963 Tibetans in 2014 to 2016. Grading LVDD was based on recommendations for the evaluation of LV diastolic function by echocardiography (2009). The prevalence of LVDD among 1963 participants (mean age: 51.51 years, 41.11% male) was 34.39%. Odds ratios (95% CI) of LVDD for the 1, 2, and 3 to 5 risk factors clustering were 1.45 (0.96–2.17), 2.68 (1.8–3.98), and 2.9 (1.9–4.43), respectively (P for trend <0.001). The association between metabolic risk factors clustering and LVDD was much more pronounced in the middle‐aged group than in the elderly (P for interaction=0.0170). High altitude was one of the major independent risk factors for LVDD; however, habitation altitude had no significant effect on the association between metabolic risk factors and LVDD (P for interaction=0.1022). The multivariable dominance analysis indicated that abdominal obesity, hypertension, and elevated blood glucose were the significant contributors to LVDD. Conclusions There was a significant positive association between the metabolic risk factor clustering number and LVDD among a population living at high altitude, especially in middle‐aged adults. However, habitation altitude itself has no significant effect on the association between metabolic risk factors and LVDD.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE The aim of this study was to evaluate the influence of sex on left ventricular mechanics in hypertensive individuals. METHODS This cross-sectional study included 171 untreated hypertensive patients and 112 normotensive controls who underwent a 24-h ambulatory blood pressure monitoring and comprehensive echocardiographic examination including strain assessment. RESULTS Hypertensive women and men had significantly lower left ventricular global longitudinal and circumferential strains than their normotensive counterparts. Left ventricular global longitudinal strain was lower in hypertensive men than in women (-19.8 ± 2.2 vs. -17.9 ± 2.1%; P < 0.01). Left ventricular global circumferential strain was also reduced in hypertensive men in comparison with women (-21.0 ± 2.5 vs. -18.7 ± 2.3%; P < 0.01). The difference in left ventricular radial strain was not discovered between hypertensive women and men. Furthermore, left ventricular twist was significantly higher in hypertensive women than in hypertensive men (21.9 ± 4.1° vs. 20.6 ± 3.8°; P = 0.034). Female sex and arterial hypertension, and also their interaction, were associated with lower left ventricular mass index, increased left ventricular global longitudinal, and circumferential strains and increased left ventricular twist compared with hypertensive men. CONCLUSION Left ventricular longitudinal and circumferential strains were significantly reduced in hypertensive patients. However, the changes are more pronounced in hypertensive men than in women. Sex has a significant effect on the association between hypertension, and longitudinal and circumferential strain.

Abstract
Cardiovascular disease may be associated with several comorbidities, including diabetes mellitus, thyroid disorders, and the metabolic syndrome, which are predominantly observed in women and often starting at particular ages. In addition, common treatment options for carcinomas frequently seen in women may induce serious cardiotoxic effects. We review the scope of the problem, the pathophysiologic mechanisms involved, as well as the resulting abnormalities regarding cardiac structure and function as observed by using imaging techniques.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Metabolic syndrome (MetS) has been associated with left ventricular diastolic dysfunction (LVDD) with preserved systolic function. This study aims at identifying the predictive factors for LVDD in MetS patients. METHODS The studied group comprised 72 consecutive hospitalized patients (2010-2011) diagnosed with MetS based on AHA/NHLBI/IDF 2009 definition, free of cardiovascular disease (36.11% males, age 59.19 ± 5.26 years), who underwent echocardiographic examination. Laboratory measurements of high-sensitivity C-reactive protein (hs-CRP), fibrinogen (Fbg) and interleukin-6 (IL-6), 8-isoprostaglandin-F2alpa (8-isoPGF2α), uric acid, glutathione peroxidases, and N-terminal pro-B-type natriuretic peptide (NT-proBNP) were measured. RESULTS LVDD was identified in 47 (65.27%) of the MetS patients. The diastolic blood pressure (DBP) was the strongest prediction factor for LVDD (areas under the receiver operating curve [AUC]: 0.73, odds ratios [OR]: 1.065). The number of MetS criteria was also significantly predictive for LVDD (AUC: 0.65, OR: 2.029, P < 0.04). IL-6, hs-CRP, Fbg, and NT-proBNP were predictive for LVDD when receiver operating curve (ROC) analyses were used. The multimarker model comprising age, sex, SBP and DBP, waist, circumference, triglycerides along with hs-CRP, IL-6, and NT-proBNP had the best predictive capacity (AUC: 0.88, P = 0.0001). In multivariate analysis, IL-6 remained an independent predictive biomarker for LVDD (OR: 2.045). CONCLUSION Both MetS components and biomarkers of inflammation (IF) are predictive factors for LVDD. The best predictive multimarker model for LVDD in MetS patients is composed of waist, triglycerides (TGL), SBP, DBP, fasting glucose, IL-6, hs-CRP, and NT-proBNP. IL-6 remains an independent predictive biomarker for LVDD in MetS patients, underlining the importance of IF in the evolution of MetS to subclinical cardiac damage.

Abstract
Background: The association of metabolic syndrome (MS) with left ventricular (LV) hypertrophy is controversial. The objective of our study was to investigate the influence of MS on LV mass and geometry in community-based hypertensive patients among Han Chinese. Materials and Methods: This study included 1733 metabolic syndrome patients according to the International Diabetes Federation (IDF) definition and 2373 non-MS hypertension patients. LV hypertrophy was diagnosed by the criteria of LV mass ≥49.2 g/m2.7 for men and 46.7 g/m2.7 for women. LV geometric patterns (normal, concentric remodeling, concentric or eccentric hypertrophy) were calculated according to LV hypertrophy and relative wall thickness. Logistic regression analysis was used to determine odds ratio (OR) and 95% confidence interval (CI) of MS for LV hypertrophy and LV geometry abnormality. Results: The LV mass and LV mass index were higher in the MS group than in the non-MS group. In multiple adjusted models. LV mass index, LV mass, interventricular septum, and post wall were raised with the increased number of MS disorders. MS was associated with increased LV hypertrophy risk (unadjusted OR 1.38; 95% CI 1.21-1.57); age, sex, and blood pressure (BP; adjusted OR 1.39; 95% CI 1.22-1.59). MS was also associated with increased risk of eccentric hypertrophy in male and female patients. MS was only associated with increased risk of concentric hypertrophy in female patients; and MS was not associated with concentric remodeling. Conclusion: LV mass and LV mass index were associated with the increased number of MS disorders in the Chinese community-based hypertensive population. MS was not only associated with increased LV hypertrophy risk, but also associated with concentric and eccentric LV geometry abnormality, especially in females.

Cross-sectional analysis of serum calcium levels for associations with left ventricular hypertrophy in normocalcemia individuals with type 2 diabetes. Cardiovasc Diabetol 2015; 14:43. [PMID: 25924883 PMCID: PMC4422420 DOI: 10.1186/s12933-015-0200-9] [Citation(s) in RCA: 12] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/26/2015] [Accepted: 03/15/2015] [Indexed: 01/19/2023] Open
Abstract
Background Left ventricular hypertrophy (LVH) is prevalent in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM). Recent studies show that an increase in albumin-adjusted serum calcium level is associated with an elevated risk of T2DM. We speculate that increased serum calcium levels in T2DM patients are related to LVH prevalence. Methods In this echocardiographic study, 833 normocalcemia and normophosphatemia patients with T2DM were enrolled. The associations between serum calcium and metabolic parameters, left ventricular mass index (LVMI), as well as the rate of LVH were examined using bivariate linear correlation, multivariate linear regression and logistic regression, respectively. The predictive performance of serum calcium for LVH was evaluated using the area under the receiver operating characteristic curve (AUC). Results Patients with LVH have significantly higher serum calcium than those without LVH. Serum calcium was positively associated with total cholesterol, triglycerides, low-density lipoprotein cholesterol, serum uric acid, HOMA-IR and fasting plasma glucose. Multivariate linear regression analysis demonstrated that serum calcium was independently associated with LVMI (p < 0.001). In comparison with patients in the lowest serum calcium quartile, the odds ratio (OR) for LVH in patients in the highest quartile was 2.909 (95% CI 1.792-4.720; p < 0.001). When serum calcium was analyzed as a continuous variable, per 1 mg/dl increase, the OR (95% CI) for LVH was [2.400 (1.552-3.713); p < 0.001]. Serum calcium can predict LVH (AUC = 0.617; 95% CI (0.577-0.656); p < 0.001). Conclusions Albumin-adjusted serum calcium is associated with an increased risk of LVH in patients with T2DM.
