Association between dietary patterns and carotid intima-media thickness: cross-sectional analysis of ELSA-Brasil study. Eur J Nutr 2023; 62:1623-1633. [PMID: 36725718 DOI: 10.1007/s00394-023-03097-w] [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: 08/02/2022] [Accepted: 01/18/2023] [Indexed: 02/03/2023]
Abstract
PURPOSE We aimed to perform a cross-sectional evaluation of the association between dietary patterns and carotid intima-media thickness (cIMT), using baseline data from the Brazilian Longitudinal Study of Adult Health. METHODS The participants with measurement of the cIMT were included (n = 9,624). cIMT was evaluated in a continuous way and categorized as < 75th and ≥ 75th and ≤ 0.9 mm and > 0.9 mm. Dietary patterns (DPs) were identified by principal component factor analysis. Linear and logistic regression models were used to evaluate the association between cIMT and DPs. RESULTS Three DPs were derived. For each unit increase in the convenience DP score, the odds for cIMT ≥ 75th increased by 13% (OR 1.13; 95% CI 1.05: 1.22) and for cIMT > 0.9 mm increased by 14% (OR 1.14; 95% CI 1.07: 1.22) in the fully adjusted model. In contrast, each unit increase in the prudent DP score decreased by 8% the odds of having cIMT ≥ 75th (OR 0.92; 95% CI 0.86: 0.98) and by 11% of cIMT > 0.9 mm (OR 0.89; 95% CI 0.84: 0.95). Furthermore, each increase in the convenience DP score was associated with increase in the cIMT (β 0.01; 95% CI 0.01: 0.02), while each increase in the prudent DP score was associated with decrease in the cIMT (β -0.01; -0.01; -0.01) in linear regression models. CONCLUSIONS Our results demonstrate that those individuals with adherence to the convenience dietary pattern are more likely to have high cIMT, while those with adherence to a prudent dietary pattern have lower odds for this characteristic.

Abstract
It is indicated that lipids profiles are associated with carotid plaque and Atherosclerosis. However, studies about the relationship between serum lipid profiles and carotid plaque composition in Chinese Population is limited. We conducted a cross-sectional study among 3,214 participants between January 2015 and December 2017 in China, to investigate the association between various lipid profiles and the prevalence of carotid plaque. Logistic regression model was used to investigate the association between plasma lipid profiles and odds of carotid plaque. Analysis of covariance (ANCOVA) was used to compare the mean plasma lipid profiles among different number and composition of carotid artery plaques. HDL-C, Non-HDL-C levels, TC/HDL-C, LDL-C/HDL-C were significantly associated with the presence of carotid plaque; HDL-C, LDL-C, Non-HDL-C levels, TC/HDL-C, LDL-C/HDL-C were significantly associated with the presence of common carotid artery (CCA) plaque. Compare with participants without carotid plaque, increased level of LDL-C/HDL-C was found in those with echolucent/polytype plaque. Similarly, compared with participants without CCA plaque, increased level of LDL-C/HDL-C was found in those with echolucent plaque. In conclusion, we found that serum HDL-C, Non-HDLc level, TC/HDLc, and LDLc/HDLc were all associated with the prevalence of carotid plaque, and LDL-C/HDL-C differed among different group of carotid plaque composition.

Abstract
SIGNIFICANCE The incidence of cardiovascular events (CVEs) increases with age, representing the main cause of death in an elderly population. Aging is associated with overproduction of reactive oxygen species (ROS), which may affect clotting and platelet activation, and impair endothelial function, thus predisposing elderly patients to thrombotic complications. Recent Advances: There is increasing evidence to suggest that aging is associated with an imbalance between oxidative stress and antioxidant status. Thus, upregulation of ROS-producing enzymes such as nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide phosphate (NADPH) oxidase and myeloperoxidase, along with downregulation of antioxidant enzymes, such as superoxide dismutase and glutathione peroxidase, occurs during aging. This imbalance may predispose to thrombosis by enhancing platelet and clotting activation and eliciting endothelial dysfunction. Recently, gut-derived products, such as trimethylamine N-oxide (TMAO) and lipopolysaccharide, are emerging as novel atherosclerotic risk factors, and gut microbiota composition has been shown to change by aging, and may concur with the increased cardiovascular risk in the elderly. CRITICAL ISSUES Antioxidant treatment is ineffective in patients at risk or with cardiovascular disease. Further, anti-thrombotic treatment seems to work less in the elderly population. FUTURE DIRECTIONS Interventional trials with antioxidants targeting enzymes implicated in aging-related atherothrombosis are warranted to explore whether modulation of redox status is effective in lowering CVEs in the elderly.

Abstract
Oxidative stress is a crucial factor in the pathogenesis and development of cardiovascular disease. Recently, simplified methods for the detection of reactive oxygen species (ROS) using the derivatives of reactive oxygen metabolites (d-ROMs) test as an index of ROS products and the biological antioxidant potential (BAP) test as an index of antioxidant potential have been utilized. These methods are easy to perform, quick, inexpensive since they use small equipment, and provide reliable results compared with established oxidative stress and antioxidant markers. Because oxidative stress has been shown to represent the balance of production of ROS and antioxidant capacity, it is more appropriate to evaluate ROS and antioxidant capacity simultaneously. However, no study has examined the associations among d-ROMs, BAP values, and carotid artery intima-media thickness (IMT) concurrently. Therefore, we studied the associations among d-ROMs, BAP values, and the carotid artery IMT. Carotid artery IMT, blood pressure (BP), fasting circulating d-ROMs, BAP, glucose metabolism, lipid, and C-reactive protein levels were measured in 95 subjects (age: 49.5 ± 13.8 years; men: 41; women: 54), including 42 healthy subjects and 53 patients with hypertension, dyslipidemia, and diabetes mellitus who were not on medication. The results of multiple regression analysis revealed that dependent carotid artery IMT determinants remained significantly associated with age, systolic BP, total cholesterol, and BAP, whereas dependent BAP determinants remained significantly associated with body mass index and carotid artery IMT. BAP was strongly correlated with carotid artery IMT in our cohort. Our results suggest that BAP may be a useful risk marker for carotid atherosclerosis.
