Treating ischemic stroke by improving vascular structure and promoting angiogenesis using Taohong Siwu Decoction: An integrative pharmacology strategy. JOURNAL OF ETHNOPHARMACOLOGY 2024; 332:118372. [PMID: 38777084 DOI: 10.1016/j.jep.2024.118372] [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: 03/18/2024] [Revised: 05/17/2024] [Accepted: 05/19/2024] [Indexed: 05/25/2024]
Abstract
ETHNOPHARMACOLOGICAL RELEVANCE Neovessels represent a crucial therapeutic target and strategy for repairing ischemic tissue. Taohong Siwu Decoction (THSWD) exhibits potential in promoting angiogenesis to address ischemic stroke (IS). However, its impact on neovessel structure and function, alongside the underlying molecular mechanisms, remains elusive. AIM OF THE STUDY Our aim is to investigate the protective effects of THSWD on neovessel structure and function, as well as the associated molecular mechanisms, utilizing an integrative pharmacological approach. MATERIALS AND METHODS We initially employed behavioral tests, 2,3,5-triphenyltetrazolium chloride (TTC) staining, Haematoxylin-eosin (HE) staining, enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA), Laser Doppler flowmetry (LDF), Evans blue staining, and immunofluorescence to evaluate the protective effects of THSWD on neovascular structure and function in middle cerebral artery occlusion/reperfusion (MCAO/R) rats. Subsequently, we utilized network pharmacology, metabolomics, and experimental validation to elucidate the underlying molecular mechanisms of THSWD in enhancing neovascular structure and function. RESULT In addition to significantly reducing neurological deficits and cerebral infarct volume, THSWD mitigated pathological damage, blood-brain barrier (BBB) leakage, and cerebral blood flow disruption. Moreover, it preserved neovascular structure and stimulated angiogenesis. THSWD demonstrated potential in ameliorating cerebral microvascular metabolic disturbances including lipoic acid metabolism, fructose and mannose metabolism, purine metabolism, and ether lipid metabolism. Consequently, it exhibited multifaceted therapeutic effects, encompassing anti-inflammatory, antioxidant, energy metabolism modulation, and antiplatelet aggregation properties. CONCLUSION THSWD exhibited protective effects on cerebral vascular structure and function and facilitated angiogenesis by rectifying cerebral microvascular metabolic disturbances in MCAO/R rats. Furthermore, integrated pharmacology offers a promising approach for studying the intricate traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) system in IS treatment.

Linear positive association of metabolic score for insulin resistance with stroke risk among American adults: a cross-sectional analysis of National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey datasets. J Stroke Cerebrovasc Dis 2024; 33:107994. [PMID: 39241846 DOI: 10.1016/j.jstrokecerebrovasdis.2024.107994] [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: 07/23/2024] [Revised: 08/24/2024] [Accepted: 09/03/2024] [Indexed: 09/09/2024] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND Insulin Resistance (IR) is associated with stroke. This study aimed to investigate the correlation between metabolic score for insulin resistance (METS-IR) level, a new biomarker for assessing IR, and stroke. METHODS This is a cross-sectional study based on data from the National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (NHANES) from 1999 to 2020 and included participants aged ≥ 20 years. All participants provided complete stroke and METS-IR related data. The study employed statistical techniques, including multivariate logistic regression analysis, restricted cubic splines (RCS), and stratified analyses to evaluate the relationship between the amounts of METS-IR and the risk of stroke. RESULTS The study included 14,029 participants aged 20 years or older. The fully adjusted model revealed a statistically significant correlation between METS-IR and stroke (OR=1.21, 95% CI: 1.00, 1.46; P<0.05). Specifically, for every 10-unit increase in METS-IR, there was a 21% increase in the prevalence of stroke. The prevalence of stroke was 60% higher in the Q4 group compared to the Q1 group, as indicated by a significant association with METS-IR (OR=1.60, 95% CI: 1.01, 2.54; P<0.05). The RCS analysis revealed a strong linear correlation between METS-IR and the incidence of stroke (P<0.05). Subgroup analyses showed that gender, age, race, alcohol consumption, smoking, diabetes, and hypertension exhibited correlation with this positive association, and a significant interaction was observed in age (P for interaction < 0.05). CONCLUSIONS The findings of this study indicate that elevated METS-IR levels are strongly linked to a greater risk of stroke in adults.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The prevalence of stroke disability associated with high BMI has significantly increased over the past three decades. However, it remains uncertain whether high body-mass index (BMI) exerts a similar impact on the disease burden of different stroke subtypes. The aim of this study is to assess the long-term trends of stroke and subtypes mortality attributable to high BMI in China between 1990 and 2019. METHODS Data on stroke and subtypes mortality attributable to high BMI in China was extracted in the Global Burden of Disease (GBD) 2019. The trends of age-standardized mortality rate (ASMR) were calculated using the linear regression and age-period-cohort framework. RESULTS The changing trend of ASMR on stroke attributable to high BMI in China differed among subtypes, with an estimated annual percentage change (EAPC) and 95%CI of 2.04 (1.86 to 2.21) for ischemic stroke (IS), 0.36 (-0.03 to 0.75) for intracerebral hemorrhage (ICH), and - 4.62 (-5.44 to -3.78) for subarachnoid hemorrhage (SAH). Net and local drift analyses revealed a gradual increase in the proportion of older people with IS and a gradual increase in the proportion of younger people with hemorrhagic strokes. The cohort and period rate ratios varied by subtype, showing an increasing trend for IS and ICH but a decreasing trend for SAH. The stroke mortality attributable to high BMI increased significantly with age for IS and ICH, peaking between ages 50-70 for SAH. Notably, males had higher ASMR related to stroke but exhibited slighter declines or higher growth compared to females in China. Moreover, the population affected by fatal strokes tended to be older among females but more evenly distributed across a wider age range encompassing both younger and older individuals. CONCLUSION The research findings indicate a rising trend in the ASMR of stroke and subtypes attributable to high BMI in China from 1990 to 2019, with different patterns of change for different subtypes, genders and ages. Consequently, it is imperative for public health authorities in China to formulate guidelines for specific stroke subtypes, genders and ages to prevent the burden of stroke attributable to high BMI.

Abstract
AIM To investigate the associations of individual and combined healthy lifestyle factors (HLS) with the risk of stroke in individuals with diabetes in China. METHODS This prospective analysis included 41 314 individuals with diabetes [15 191 from the Comprehensive Research on the Prevention and Control of the Diabetes (CRPCD) project and 26 123 from the China Kadoorie Biobank (CKB) study]. Associations of lifestyle factors, including cigarette smoking, alcohol consumption, physical activity, diet, body shape and sleep duration, with the risk of stroke, intracerebral haemorrhage (ICH) and ischaemic stroke (IS) were assessed using Cox proportional hazard models. RESULTS During median follow-up periods of 8.02 and 9.05 years, 2499 and 4578 cases of stroke, 2147 and 4024 of IS, and 160 and 728 of ICH were documented in individuals with diabetes in the CRPCD and CKB cohorts, respectively. In the CRPCD cohort, patients with ≥5 HLS had a 14% lower risk of stroke (hazard ratio (HR): 0.86, 95% confidence interval (CI): 0.75-0.98) than those with ≤2 HLS. In the CKB cohort, the adjusted HR (95% CI) for patients with ≥5 HLS were 0.74 (0.66-0.83) for stroke, 0.74 (0.66-0.83) for IS, and 0.57 (0.42-0.78) for ICH compared with those with ≤2 HLS. The pooled adjusted HR (95% CI) comparing patients with ≥5 HLS versus ≤2 HLS was 0.79 (0.69-0.92) for stroke, 0.80 (0.68-0.93) for IS, and 0.60 (0.46-0.78) for ICH. CONCLUSIONS Maintaining a healthy lifestyle was associated with a lower risk of stroke, IS and ICH among individuals with diabetes.

Front Nutr 2024; 11:1378479. [PMID: 38912299 PMCID: PMC11190190 DOI: 10.3389/fnut.2024.1378479] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/29/2024] [Accepted: 05/28/2024] [Indexed: 06/25/2024] Open
Abstract
Background This cross-sectional study aims to explore the interactive effects of the Composite Dietary Antioxidant Index (CDAI) and Body Mass Index (BMI) on stroke risk among U.S. adults, utilizing data from the National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (NHANES) conducted between 2001 and 2018. Methods The analysis involved 42,042 participants from a representative sample of non-institutionalized U.S. civilians, selected through a stratified, multistage probability sampling method. Dietary intake data were collected over two 24-h periods using the Automated Multiple-Pass Method. The study calculated a modified CDAI to assess dietary antioxidant intake, excluding supplements and water sources. Statistical methods included multivariable logistic regression and Generalized Additive Models (GAM) to evaluate the interaction between CDAI scores and BMI in relation to stroke risk, adjusting for a wide range of demographic, lifestyle, and health covariates. Results The research identified a significant interaction between CDAI scores and BMI categories in stroke risk assessment. While a negative correlation was observed between CDAI scores and stroke risk across the total population (OR 0.97, 95% CI 0.96-0.99), this relationship varied notably across different BMI groups. In participants with a BMI ≥25, a statistically significant negative association persisted, displaying a non-linear pattern. The study also revealed an inflection point in the CDAI score, indicating a shift in the relationship between dietary antioxidants and stroke risk. Conclusion This study underscores the complex interaction between dietary antioxidant intake and BMI in determining stroke risk among U.S. adults. The findings suggest that individuals with higher BMI may experience more pronounced benefits from dietary antioxidants in stroke prevention. These insights could inform targeted dietary recommendations and public health strategies aimed at reducing stroke risk, particularly in populations with higher BMI. Further research is needed to fully understand these interactions and their implications for stroke prevention guidelines.

Int J Stroke 2024:17474930241255031.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Many studies have explored the impact of body mass index (BMI) on stroke prognosis, yet findings remain inconsistent. AIMS The aims of this study were to conduct a systematic review and meta-analyses to summarize the existing evidence on BMI and stroke outcomes. METHODS PubMed, Web of Science, Embase, The Cochrane Library, CNKI, CBM, Wanfang Database, and VIP Database were systematically searched from inception to 1 January 2023. Cohort studies were included if they reported on a population of patients with stroke, evaluated BMI on stroke outcomes (mortality/recurrence/score of modified Rankin scale (mRs)), and reported original data. Data extraction and quality assessment were independently undertaken by two reviewers. Stata 16.0 software was used for meta-analysis. RESULTS Thirty-two studies involving 330,353 patients (5 Chinese language articles) were included in the analysis. The proportion of underweight, overweight, and obese patients was 1.85%, 18.2%, and 15.6%, respectively. Compared with normal weight, being underweight was associated with an increased risk of mortality (relative risk (RR) = 1.78, 95% confidence interval (CI) = 1.60-1.96), poor functional outcomes defined as modified Rankin scale ⩾ 3 (RR = 1.33, 95% CI = 1.22-1.45), and stroke recurrence (RR = 1.19, 95% CI = 1.04-1.37). Being overweight but not obese was associated with reduced mortality (RR = 0.81, 95% CI = 0.74-0.89) and better functional outcomes (RR = 0.92, 95% CI = 0.89-0.96), but did not alter the risk of stroke recurrence (RR = 1.03, 95% CI = 0.90-1.17). Obesity was associated with lower risk of mortality (RR = 0.76, 95% CI = 0.72-0.81) and better functional outcomes (RR = 0.89, 95% CI = 0.84-0.94). CONCLUSIONS Our findings indicate that in patients with stroke, being underweight is associated with an increased risk of mortality, poor functional outcomes, and stroke recurrence. In contrast, being overweight but not obese, or being obese, was associated with a decreased risk of mortality and better functional outcomes. This is consistent with the obesity paradox in stroke, whereby obesity increases stroke risk in the general population but is associated with improved outcome in patients suffering stroke.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The Triglyceride Glucose-Body Mass Index (TyG-BMI) has been established as a robust indicator of insulin resistance (IR), reflecting metabolic health across various populations. In general, lower TyG-BMI values are often associated with better metabolic health outcomes and a reduced risk of adverse health events in non-critically ill populations. Previous studies have highlighted a significant negative association between TyG-BMI and all-cause mortality (ACM) among critically ill atrial fibrillation patients. Given the high prevalence and severe outcomes associated with stroke, understanding how TyG-BMI at the time of ICU admission correlates with ACM in critically ill stroke patients becomes imperative. This study aims to assess the correlation between TyG-BMI and ACM in this specific patient cohort, exploring how traditional associations between TyG-BMI and metabolic health may differ in the context of acute, life-threatening illness. METHODS Patient data were retrieved by accessing the Medical Information Mart for Intensive Care IV (MIMIC-IV 2.2) database, categorizing patients into three groups on the basis of TyG-BMI tertiles. The study evaluated both primary and secondary outcomes: the primary outcomes included the 90-day, 180-day, and 1-year ACM, while secondary outcomes encompassed ICU, in-hospital, and 30-day ACM. Our study employed the Kaplan-Meier (K-M) curve method for outcome comparison across the groups while utilizing multivariate Cox proportional-hazards regression models and restricted cubic splines (RCS) to explore TyG-BMI association with these outcomes. Additionally, interaction and subgroup analyses were performed, focusing on different mortality time points. RESULTS Among a cohort of 1707 individuals diagnosed with stroke, the average age was 68 years (interquartile range [IQR]: 58-78 years), with 946 (55.42%) of the participants being male. The analysis of K-M curves suggested that patients having a lower TyG-BMI level faced a heightened risk of long-term ACM, whereas the short-term ACM exhibited no statistically significant differences across the three TyG-BMI groups. Furthermore, Cox proportional-hazards regression analysis validated a statistically significant increased risk of long-term ACM among patients belonging to the lowest TyG-BMI tertile. Additionally, RCS analysis results demonstrated L-shaped correlations between the TyG-BMI index and both short- and long-term ACM. These findings underscore the TyG-BMI predictive value for long-term mortality in stroke patients, highlighting a nuanced relationship that varies over different time frames. The results revealed no interactions between TyG-BMI and the stratified variables, with the exception of age. CONCLUSION In our study, lower TyG-BMI levels in critically ill stroke patients are significantly related to a higher risk of long-term ACM within the context of the United States. This finding suggests the potential of TyG-BMI as a marker for stratifying long-term risk in this patient population. However, it's crucial to note that this association was not observed for short-term ACM, indicating that the utility of TyG-BMI may be more pronounced in long-term outcome prediction. Additionally, our conclusion that TyG-BMI could serve as a reliable indicator for managing and stratifying stroke patients over the long term is preliminary. To confirm our findings and assess the universal applicability of TyG-BMI as a prognostic tool, it is crucial to conduct rigorously designed research across various populations.

[PMID: 38699426 PMCID: PMC11063327 DOI: 10.3389/fpubh.2024.1370322] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/14/2024] [Accepted: 04/08/2024] [Indexed: 05/05/2024] Open
Abstract
Background Stroke was a major global public health challenge, and its prognosis was remarkably associated with inflammation levels and nutritional status. The advanced lung cancer inflammation index (ALI) was a comprehensive indicator that combined inflammation and nutritional status. Currently, the relationship between ALI and the prognosis of stroke patients was not yet known. The purpose of the current study was to estimate their relationship. Methods Cohort data from the National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (NHANES) 1999-2018 were collected. The association between ALI and all-cause and cardiovascular disease (CVD) mortality in stroke patients was estimated using a multivariable adjusted Cox model. Their non-linear relationship was analyzed by restricted cubic spline analysis. Sensitivity analysis was constructed through stratified analysis and interaction analysis. Results 1,440 stroke patients were included in this study. An elevated ALI was significantly related to a reduced risk of all-cause mortality in stroke patients but not related to CVD mortality. A reverse J-shaped non-linear association between ALI and all-cause mortality in stroke patients, with an inflection point at 83.76 (the lowest of the mortality risk). On the left side of the inflection point, for each 10 U increase in ALI, there was a 16% reduction in the risk of all-cause mortality. However, on the right side, the risk increased by 6%. There was no remarkable interaction between stratified variables and ALI. Conclusion This was the first study on the relationship between ALI and all-cause and CVD mortality in stroke patients. Elevated ALI was closely associated with a reduced risk of all-cause mortality. A reverse J-shaped non-linear relationship existed between the two, with an inflection point at 83.76. These findings implied that controlling the ALI of stroke patients within an appropriate range was crucial for their prognosis (such as weight management, albumin supplementation, anti-inflammatory treatment). The dynamic variation in ALI was also advantageous for clinicians in establishing personalized ALI criteria to maximize the long-term survival of stroke patients.

Abstract
Introduction The relationship between oxidative balance score (OBS), an emerging integrative metric for assessing individual redox homeostasis, and the prevalence of stroke in the general population remains unknown. We aimed to explore these relationships in the National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (NHANES). We investigated the relationship between the oxidative balance score (OBS) and stroke prevalence using NHANES data from 1999-2018. Methods We included eligible individuals from NHANES 1999-2018. OBS calculations were based on previously validated methods, and stroke diagnoses were based on self-reports in questionnaires. Multivariable logistic regression analyses were used to examine the independent associations of overall, dietary, and lifestyle OBS with stroke prevalence. In addition, restricted cubic spline (RCS), stratified analysis, and sensitivity analysis were used. Results We included 25,258 participants aged 20-85 years, in which the prevalence of stroke was 2.66%. After adjusting for all confounders, overall and dietary OBS, but not lifestyle OBS, were inversely associated with the prevalence of stroke [odds ratios and 95% confidence intervals of 0.97 (0.96, 0.99) and 0.98 (0.96, 0.99) for overall and dietary OBS, respectively, both p < 0.05]. In addition, there was a dose-response relationship between overall and dietary OBS and stroke prevalence. The RCS showed that these relationships were linear. Stratified analyses indicated that socioeconomic status (SES) significantly influenced the relationship between all OBS and stroke prevalence. Conclusion Dietary OBS, but not lifestyle OBS, had an inverse relationship with the prevalence of stroke in the general population. SES significantly influenced the protective effect of OBS against stroke. These findings emphasize the importance of integrated antioxidant properties from diet for stroke prevention.

Nutr Metab Cardiovasc Dis 2024; 34:980-987. [PMID: 38220505 DOI: 10.1016/j.numecd.2023.12.003] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/05/2023] [Revised: 10/26/2023] [Accepted: 12/06/2023] [Indexed: 01/16/2024]
Abstract
BACKGROUND AND AIMS A single measurement lipid accumulation product (LAP) level has been shown to increase cardiovascular disease, but cumulative LAP on stroke effects is uncertain. METHODS AND RESULTS This study included 43,089 participants, free of any cardiovascular diseases at baseline, from the Kailuan Study. The cumulative LAP was determined by multiplying the average LAP index and the time interval between two consecutive examinations, resulting in their categorization into four quartile groups. The higher LAP exposure was defined as participants with LAP values exceeding 90% of this population during each health survey. The association between cumulative LAP and stroke was assessed using multivariable Cox proportional hazard models. During a median follow-up period of 11.0 (10.6-11.3) years, 2461 participants developed stroke (of which 2220 were ischemic stroke, 320 were hemorrhagic stroke, and 79 were concurrent). After adjusting for potential confounders, the risk of stroke gradually increased in Groups Q2 to Q4 compared to Q1, with hazard ratios (HRs) ranging from 1.19 (95% CI: 1.05-1.36) to 1.50 (95% CI: 1.30-1.70). Specifically, the risk of ischemic stroke showed an increase from 1.21 (1.06-1.39) to 1.56 (1.36-1.79), while no statistically significant effect was observed for hemorrhagic stroke. The longer duration of higher LAP index exposure was also associated with increased stroke risk. Similar results were obtained in the stratification and sensitivity analyses. CONCLUSION Cumulative LAP was positively and significantly associated with incident stroke, especially ischemic stroke, and a longer duration of exposure to higher LAP may increase the risk of stroke.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Research on cardiorespiratory fitness (CRF) in relation to physical activity (PA) and fatigue after stroke is limited. Increased knowledge of interrelationships between these factors can help optimize rehabilitation strategies and improve health-outcomes. OBJECTIVES We aimed to: 1) evaluate CRF, PA, and fatigue, 2) characterize patients with impaired versus non-impaired CRF, and 3) examine associations of CRF with PA and fatigue, three months after first-ever ischemic stroke. METHODS In this cross-sectional study CRF was measured as peak oxygen uptake (VO2peak) by cardiopulmonary exercise testing. PA was measured using accelerometers. Fatigue was assessed with the 7-item Fatigue Severity Scale (FSS). RESULTS The sample (n=74, mean age 64±13 years, 36% women) had a mean VO2peak of 27.0±8.7 (86% of predicted). Fifty-one percent met the World Health Organization's recommendation of ≥150 min of moderate PA/week. Mean steps-per-day was 9316±4424 (113% of predicted). Thirty-five percent of the sample had moderate-to-high fatigue (FSS≥4), mean FSS score was 3.2±1.8. Patients with impaired CRF (VO2peak<80% of predicted) had higher body-fat-percent (p<0.01), less moderate-to-vigorous PA (MVPA) (p<0.01) and a trend toward higher fatigue (p=0.053) compared to the non-impaired. Backward regression analysis showed that higher CRF was associated with more MVPA (unstandardized beta [95% CI]: 0.38 [0.15, 0.63], p=0.002) and less fatigue (unstandardized beta [95% CI]: -3.9 [-6.4, -1.6], p=0.004). CONCLUSIONS Stroke patients had lower CRF compared to reference values. Impaired CRF was mainly related to overweight. Higher CRF was associated with more MVPA and less fatigue. Exercise after stroke may be especially beneficial for patients with impaired CRF.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Depressive symptoms are common in stroke survivors. While obesity has been associated with stroke and depression, its influence on the association between stroke and depressive symptoms is unknown. METHODS Cross-sectional data from 2015 to 2016 Canadian Community Health Survey was used. History of stroke was self-reported and our outcome of interest was depressive symptoms in the prior 2 weeks, measured using the 9-item Patient Health Questionnaire. Self-reported body mass index (BMI) was modeled as cubic spline terms to allow for nonlinear associations. We used multivariable logistic regression to evaluate the association between stroke and depressive symptoms and added an interaction term to evaluate the modifying effect of BMI. RESULTS Of the 47,521 participants, 694 (1.0%) had a stroke and 3314 (6.5%) had depressive symptoms. Those with stroke had a higher odds of depressive symptoms than those without (aOR = 3.13, 95% CI 2.48, 3.93). BMI did not modify the stroke-depressive symptoms association (P interaction = 0.242) despite the observed variation in stroke-depressive symptoms association across BMI categories,: normal BMI [18.5-25 kg/m2] (aOR† = 3.91, 95% CI 2.45, 6.11), overweight [25-30 kg/m2] (aOR† = 2.63, 95% CI 1.58, 4.20), and obese [>30 kg/m2] (aOR† = 2.76, 95% CI 1.92, 3.94). Similar results were found when depressive symptoms were modeled as a continuous measure. CONCLUSION The association between stroke and depressive symptoms is not modified by BMI, needing additional work to understand the role of obesity on depression after stroke.

Associations of overweight and obesity with the risk of cardiovascular disease according to metabolic risk factors among middle-aged Japanese workers: The Aichi Workers' cohort study. Obes Res Clin Pract 2024; 18:101-108. [PMID: 38480065 DOI: 10.1016/j.orcp.2024.02.006] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/16/2023] [Revised: 01/31/2024] [Accepted: 02/19/2024] [Indexed: 05/07/2024]
Abstract
BACKGROUND The association between obesity and cardiovascular disease (CVD) remains unclear, particularly for those with established CVD risk factors. We analyzed follow-up data from the Aichi Workers' Cohort Study. We studied the association between the degree of obesity and risk of CVD and its subtypes specifically among individuals with hypertension, hyper-low-density lipoprotein (LDL)-cholesterolemia, or diabetes. METHODS Pooled data of 8972 adults (7076 men and 1896 women) who were recruited between 2002 and 2008 were used in the current analysis. We used multivariable Cox proportional hazard model to estimate hazard ratios (HRs) and 95% confidence intervals (CIs) for the associations between the degree of obesity assessed with body mass index (BMI) and the risk of CVD and its subtypes, i.e., coronary heart disease (CHD) and stroke. RESULTS During a median of 12 years, there were 197 CVDs (80 CHDs and 117 strokes). BMI ≥ 27.5 compared to 21.0-22.9 kg/m2 was positively and significantly associated with the risks of CVD, CHD, and total stroke. Hypertension, hyper-LDL-cholesterolemia, and diabetes mediated 15.9%, 5.8%, and 8.7% of obesity-CVD associations, respectively, and 28.3% by their combination. In the stratified analyses by the presence of risk factors, BMI ≥ 25.0 (overweight/obesity) compared to BMI < 25 kg/m2 was associated with a higher risk of CVD in those with and without hypertension, but only with hyper-LDL-cholesterolemia, and without diabetes. CONCLUSIONS Overweight/obesity was associated with the risk of CVD and its subtypes. About 30% of the risk was explained by hypertension, hyper-LDL-cholesterolemia, and diabetes, of which hypertension accounted for approximately the half of the explained risk. However, overweight/obesity increased the risk of CVD even in those without hypertension. These findings highlight the importance of controlling and preventing overweight/obesity regardless of chronic disease status.

Cardiovasc Diabetol 2024; 23:81. [PMID: 38402161 PMCID: PMC10893757 DOI: 10.1186/s12933-024-02165-7] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/14/2023] [Accepted: 02/14/2024] [Indexed: 02/26/2024] Open
Abstract
OBJECTIVE Current literature is deficient in robust evidence delineating the correlation between the triglyceride glucose-body mass index (TyG-BMI) and the incidence of stroke. Consequently, this investigation seeks to elucidate the potential link between TyG-BMI and stroke risk in a cohort of middle-aged and senior Chinese individuals. METHODS This study employs longitudinal data from four waves of the China Health and Retirement Longitudinal Study (CHARLS) conducted in 2011, 2013, 2015, and 2018, encompassing 8,698 participants. The CHARLS cohort was assembled using a multistage probability sampling technique. Participants underwent comprehensive evaluations through standardized questionnaires administered via face-to-face interviews. Our analytic strategy involved the application of Cox proportional hazards regression models to investigate the association between TyG-BMI and the risk of stroke. To discern potential non-linear relationships, we incorporated Cox proportional hazards regression with smooth curve fitting. Additionally, we executed a battery of sensitivity and subgroup analyses to validate the robustness of our findings. RESULTS Our study utilized a multivariate Cox proportional hazards regression model and found a significant correlation between the TyG-BMI and the risk of stroke. Specifically, a 10-unit increase in TyG-BMI corresponded to a 4.9% heightened risk of stroke (HR = 1.049, 95% CI 1.029-1.069). The analysis also uncovered a non-linear pattern in this relationship, pinpointed by an inflection point at a TyG-BMI value of 174.63. To the left of this inflection point-meaning at lower TyG-BMI values-a 10-unit hike in TyG-BMI was linked to a more substantial 14.4% rise in stroke risk (HR 1.144; 95% CI 1.044-1.253). Conversely, to the right of the inflection point-at higher TyG-BMI values-each 10-unit increment was associated with a smaller, 3.8% increase in the risk of stroke (HR 1.038; 95% CI 1.016-1.061). CONCLUSIONS In the middle-aged and elderly Chinese population, elevated TyG-BMI was significantly and positively associated with stroke risk. In addition, there was also a specific non-linear association between TyG-BMI and stroke (inflection point 174.63). Further reduction of TyG-BMI below 174.63 through lifestyle changes and dietary control can significantly reduce the risk of stroke.

Abstract
Many researchers have explored the potential association between one neurosurgical disease and coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19), but few systematically analyzed the association and causality between COVID-19 and various neurosurgical diseases. A Mendelian randomization analysis was conducted to evaluate the causal association between COVID-19 (including critically ill COVID-19, hospitalized COVID-19, and respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) infection) and 30 neurosurgical diseases within European populations. The consequences of inverse variance weighted models suggest that genetic susceptibility of critically ill COVID-19 may increase the risk of cerebral infarction (odds ratio [OR] = 1.02; p-value = 0.006), genetic susceptibility of SARS-CoV-2 infection may increase the risk of stroke (OR = 1.02; p-value = 0.047), and conversely, genetic susceptibility of hospitalized COVID-19 may reduce the risk of pituitary adenoma and craniopharyngioma (OR = 0.90; p-value = 0.032). In addition, evidences revealed potential associations between genetic susceptibility of COVID-19 and spinal stenosis (OR = 1.03; p-value = 0.028), diffuse brain injury (OR = 1.21; p-value = 0.040) and focal brain injury (OR = 1.12; p-value = 0.040). By testing for heterogeneity and pleiotropy, the above causal conclusions are robust. In summary, our analysis shows that COVID-19 has an independent and powerful causal influence on multiple neurosurgical disorders.

Abstract
Background The oxidative balance score (OBS) can be used to represent the overall burden of oxidative stress in an individual. This study aimed to explore the association between the risk of stroke and OBS. Methods and materials The National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (NHANES) from 1999 to 2018 was used to extract a series of variables for participants who took the stroke questionnaire. The construction of OBS relied on diet and lifestyle components, which included 16 nutrients and 4 lifestyle factors. Weighted multivariable-adjusted logistic regression was performed to investigate the association between stroke risk and OBS. A stratified analysis was also conducted. The dose-response relationship between stroke risk and OBS was elucidated by performing a restricted cubic spline function. Results A total of 20,680 participants were included for analysis, 768 of whom suffered from stroke. Based on weighted multivariable logistic regression analysis, we discovered that the stroke prevalence decreased by 2% for each OBS unit added [OR: 0.98 (0.97-1.00), P < 0.01]. For the OBS subgroup, we also discovered that higher OBS was related to a reduction in the risk of stroke [Q4 vs. Q1: OR:0.65 (0.46-0.90), P < 0.01]. The prevalence of stroke declined by 3% with every OBS unit added to the diet component [OR: 0.97 (0.96-0.99), P < 0.01]. For the dietary OBS subgroup, higher OBS in diet components was associated with a decrease in the prevalence of stroke [Q4 vs. Q1: OR: 0.65, (0.47-0.91), P < 0.05]. Further stratified analysis showed that every OBS unit raised was associated with a decline in stroke prevalence, which was statistically significant in participants in subgroups of ≥60 years, female, no-diabetes mellitus and no-hypertension. OBS and stroke prevalence were correlated in a linear manner. Conclusion The study found that a higher OBS was associated with a decrease in stroke prevalence, which could be a significant indicator for evaluating stroke risk.

[PMID: 37950166 PMCID: PMC10636903 DOI: 10.1186/s12889-023-17126-0] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/12/2023] [Accepted: 11/01/2023] [Indexed: 11/12/2023] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND A substantially elevated Body Mass Index (BMI) is one of the largest global modifiable risk factors for stroke and heart diseases. Most studies classify BMI according to the WHO BMI cut-off point in stroke and heart disease studies. However, there is a limited understanding of the association between the BMI cut-off point in the Asian population category and stroke and heart disease. This study aimed to investigate the incidence rate ratio of stroke and heart disease by BMI categories for the Asian population. METHODS A 7-year prospective longitudinal study (2007-2014) was conducted on 6,688 adult Indonesian individuals (≥ 35 years) residing across 13 different provinces in Indonesia during the survey periods. Data on BMI were collected in 2007. Information on stroke and heart disease was obtained in both 2007 and in 2014. A multivariate-adjusted Poisson regression model was used to estimate the incidence rate ratio (IRR) and 95% confidence intervals (CIs) of either stroke or heart disease or both stroke and heart disease by BMI. RESULTS Among the 6,688 eligible participants, 334 (5%) were judged as stroke and heart disease in 2014. The IRR (95% CI) of stroke and heart disease for participants with obesity was 2.57 (1.64-4.04) compared with those within normal weight. This incidence rate ratio was more pronounced among middle-aged adults (< 55 years) rather than the older adults (≥55 years).The IRR of stroke and heart disease among obese middle-aged adults was 4.18 (95% CI 2.10-8.31). CONCLUSIONS An association was observed between obesity and the risk of stroke and heart disease, especially in middle-aged adults. These findings suggest that lowering BMI through the adoption of healthy dietary habits and increasing physical activity, particularly among middle-aged adults with high education, occupational employment, and residence in either urban or rural areas, may be beneficial for preventing stroke and heart disease.

Nonlinear connection between remnant cholesterol and stroke risk: evidence from the China health and retirement longitudinal study. Lipids Health Dis 2023; 22:181. [PMID: 37880769 PMCID: PMC10601161 DOI: 10.1186/s12944-023-01943-8] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/07/2023] [Accepted: 10/13/2023] [Indexed: 10/27/2023] Open
Abstract
OBJECTIVE The evidence on the relationship between remnant cholesterol (RC) and stroke remains controversial. Therefore, this study aimed to explore the relationship between RC and stroke risk in a Chinese population of middle-aged and elderly individuals. METHODS The present study included 10067 Chinese subjects of middle-aged and elderly individuals. The connection between RC and incident stroke was investigated using the multivariate Cox proportional hazards regression model, several sensitivity analyses, generalized additive models, and smoothed curve fitting. RESULTS A total of 1180 participants with stroke were recorded during the follow-up period. The multivariate Cox proportional hazards regression model identified a positive connection between RC and stroke risk (hazard ratio (HR) = 1.087, 95% confidence interval (CI): 1.001-1.180). In addition, the current study discovered a nonlinear connection between RC and incident stroke, and the point of inflection for RC was 1.78 mmol/L. The risk of stroke increased by 25.1% with each unit increase in RC level when RC was < 1.78 mmol/L (HR:1.251, 95%CI: 1.089-1.437, P = 0.0015). The results were not affected by sensitivity tests. CONCLUSION The current study showed a positive and nonlinear connection between RC and stroke risk in a middle-aged and elderly Chinese population. These findings provided new information to help researchers better understand the relationship between RC levels and incident stroke.

The Medical Burden of Obesity and Overweight in the US Military: Association of BMI with Clinically Diagnosed Medical Conditions in United States Military Service Members. J Nutr 2023; 153:2951-2967. [PMID: 37619919 DOI: 10.1016/j.tjnut.2023.08.023] [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: 04/18/2023] [Revised: 08/13/2023] [Accepted: 08/17/2023] [Indexed: 08/26/2023] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND A high BMI is associated with various medical conditions, notably type 2 diabetes, cardiovascular disease, and mental health disorders. In the US military, BMI increased linearly between 1975 and 2015. OBJECTIVE This cross-sectional study investigated the associations between BMI and a comprehensive range of clinically diagnosed medical conditions (CDMCs) in US military service members (SMs). METHODS A stratified random sample of SMs (n=26,177) completed an online questionnaire reporting their height, weight, and demographic/lifestyle characteristics. Medical conditions for 6 mo before questionnaire completion were obtained from a comprehensive military electronic medical surveillance system and grouped into 39 CDMCs covering both broad (largely systemic) and specific medical conditions. BMI was calculated as weight/height2 (kg/m2). The prevalence of CDMCs was compared among normal weight (<25.0 kg/m2), overweight (25.0-29.9 kg/m2), and obese (≥30 kg/m2) SMs. RESULTS After multivariable adjustment for demographic/lifestyle characteristics, higher BMI was associated with higher odds of a diagnosed medical condition in 30 of 39 CDMCs, with all 30 displaying dose-response relationships. The 5 major CDMCs with the largest odds ratios comparing obese to normal weight were endocrine/nutritional/metabolic diseases (OR=2.67, 95%CI=2.24-3.15), nervous system diseases (odds ratio [OR]=2.59, 95%CI=2.32-2.90), circulatory system diseases (OR=2.56, 95%CI=2.15-3.06), musculoskeletal system diseases (OR=1.92, 95%CI=1.76-2.09), and mental/behavioral disorders (OR=1.69, 95%CI=1.51-1.90). Compared with normal weight SMs, overweight or obese SMs had a higher number of CDMCs (1.8±1.9 vs. 2.0±2.0 and 2.5±2.3, mean ± standard deviation, respectively, P<0.01). CONCLUSIONS In a young, physically active population, higher BMI was associated with a host of medical conditions, even after adjustment for demographic/lifestyle characteristics. The US Department of Defense should improve nutrition education and modify other factors that contribute to overweight and obesity. This study demonstrates that the medical burden of obesity is substantial in overweight and obese SMs.

Non-linear dose-response relationship between body mass index and stroke risk in middle-aged and elderly Chinese men: a nationwide Longitudinal Cohort Study from CHARLS. Front Endocrinol (Lausanne) 2023; 14:1203896.

Abstract
Objective Body mass index (BMI) and stroke risk have been linked, but these findings are still debated. This study investigated the relationship between BMI and stroke risk in a middle-aged and elderly Chinese population. Methods This study used four waves of CHARLS data (2011, 2013, 2015, and 2018), including 12,161 participants. The CHARLS sample was obtained by multi-stage probability sampling and all participants were assessed by one-to-one interviews using a standardized questionnaire. We used a Cox proportional-hazards regression model to examine the relationship between BMI and stroke risk. We used Cox proportional hazards regression with cubic spline functions and smooth curve fitting to identify the non-linear relationship between them. A series of sensitivity analyses were also conducted. Results The multivariate Cox proportional hazards regression model identified a positive association between BMI and stroke risk (HR=1.025, 95% CI: 1.010-1.040). We also found a non-linear relationship between BMI and stroke incidence, with an inflection point at 26.63 kg/m2 for BMI. Each 1 kg/m2 increase in BMI to the left of the inflection point was related to a 4.4% increase in stroke risk (HR=1.044, 95% CI: 1.019-1.069). We stratified individuals by gender to further investigate their association and found a particular non-linear relationship and saturation effect between BMI and stroke risk in men, with the inflection point at 25.94 kg/m2. Each 1 kg/m2 increase in BMI to the left of the inflection point was related to a 7.6% increase in stroke risk (HR=1.076, 95% CI 1.034-1.119). The association was linear in women, with each 1 kg/m2 increase in BMI associated with a 2.1% increase in stroke risk (HR=1.021, 95% CI 1.002, 1.040). Conclusion In men, there was a specific non-linear association and saturation effect of BMI with stroke (inflection point of 25.94 kg/m2), while in women, there was none. When males had a BMI below 25.94 kg/m2, the risk of stroke was significantly and positively associated with BMI. By controlling BMI below 25.94 kg/m2 in men, a further decrease in BMI may promote a significant reduction in stroke risk.

[PMID: 37456638 PMCID: PMC10348385 DOI: 10.3389/fneur.2023.1211642] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/25/2023] [Accepted: 06/14/2023] [Indexed: 07/18/2023] Open
Abstract
Background High body mass index (HBMI) is an independent risk factor for stroke. Previous studies on the incremental burden of the rapid growth of stroke attributable to HBMI are incomplete and lag behind. We aim to assess the global burden of stroke attributable to HBMI based on a public database online. Materials and methods Study data were taken from the Global Burden of Disease, Injuries, and Risk Factors Study; deaths, the Disability-Adjusted Life-Years (DALYs), and their age-standardized rates were screened. The join point regression was used, wherein age-standardized rates were referred to as temporal trends in disease burden. Results Deaths from stroke attributable to HBMI worldwide were on the rise during 1990-2019, with an increase of 88.75%. Age-standardized DALYs were on the rise during 1990-2003 but declined during 2003-2013, with a turning point in 2013 and an increasing trend since then [the Annual Percentage Change (APC) = 0.30%, p < 0.05]. China, India, Indonesia, the Russian Federation, and the United States of America shared in sequence the rate of leading deaths and DALYs in 2019. The Socio-Demographic Index (SDI) was associated with an increasing trend in age-standardized deaths (R = -0.24, p < 0.001) and age-standardized DALYs (R = -0.22, p = 0.0018). Conclusion A range of indicators for the global burden of stroke attributable to HBMI have been on the rise for the past three decades. Tremendous efforts worldwide should be in place to control and treat stroke attributable to HBMI, especially in regions with high-middle and middle SDIs and among middle-aged and aged populations.
