[PMID: 39245081 DOI: 10.1016/j.exger.2024.112578] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/17/2024] [Revised: 08/22/2024] [Accepted: 09/05/2024] [Indexed: 09/10/2024]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Heart failure (HF) is a condition caused by a malfunction of the heart's pumping function. The single-point insulin sensitivity estimator (SPISE) index is a novel indicator for assessing insulin resistance in humans. However, the connection between the SPISE index and the risk of HF in the elderly is unknown. Therefore, our study aims to evaluate the connection between the SPISE index and HF in older adults. METHODS The study was based on data collected from the 1999-2020 National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey database and included 6165 participants aged ≥60 years. The multivariable linear regression model and the smooth fitting curve model were applied to investigate the connection between the SPISE index and HF in the elderly. Furthermore, the subgroup analysis was performed to investigate the interactive factors. RESULTS In this study, the mean age of the population was 69.38 years. After adjusting for all covariates, we observed that the SPISE index was inversely related to the prevalence of HF (OR = 0.87, 95 % CI = 0.80-0.94, P < 0.001) in older adults. The interaction analysis showed that the association might be affected by diabetes mellitus and smoking status. Additionally, an inflection point between the SPISE index and HF was found among older women. CONCLUSIONS An inverse correlation was detected between the SPISE index and HF in the elderly. This could provide new insight into the prevention and management of HF in the elderly population.

[PMID: 39395939 PMCID: PMC11470738 DOI: 10.1186/s12872-024-04155-9] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/09/2024] [Accepted: 09/02/2024] [Indexed: 10/14/2024] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND Among heart failure patients with obesity, the prognosis is better than those with normal weight, a phenomenon known as the obesity paradox. However, it is unclear whether lipoprotein levels play a mediating role in the machine of the obesity paradox. METHODS The study included 1663 heart failure patients hospitalized from January, 2019 through August, 2022. Kaplan-Meier survival analysis and Log-rank tests were performed for three endpoints in order to determine cumulative event-free survival. We investigated the correlation between Body Max Index (BMI) and outcomes by multifactorial Cox models. Mediation analysis was applied to study the presence and magnitude of mediation effects of triglyceride, total cholesterol, high-density lipoprotein cholesterol, low-density lipoprotein cholesterol, apolipoprotein A1 and apolipoprotein B, with the association between BMI and endpoints. RESULTS In MACCEs, the median follow-up period was 679 days. In Cox model, compared with the underweight group, a high BMI level was significantly associated with lower all-cause mortality (HR=0.47, 95%CI 0.31~0.69, p<0.001, obese vs underweight), cardiovascular mortality (HR=0.46, 95%CI 0.30~0.73, p<0.001, obese vs underweight) and the incidence of MACCEs (HR=0.68, 95%CI 0.53~0.88, p=0.003, obese vs underweight). Mediation analysis revealed that TG was the strongest mediator between BMI and endpoints, with proportions of mediated effects of 6.6% (95%CI 2.2%~18.0%, p=0.0258, in all-cause death),7.0% (95%CI 2.3%~18.9%, p=0.0301, in cardiovascular death) and 10.2% (95%CI 3.3%~27.4%, p=0.0185, in MACCEs). CONCLUSIONS There is an "obesity paradox" in patients with heart failure, and lipoprotein levels especially triglyceride mediate the association between BMI and cardiovascular outcomes.

Abstract
BACKGROUND At present, there is not enough evidence to prove the relationship between blood lipid and electrocardiogram (ECG) abnormalities in common mental disorders (CMD). This study aimed to explore the relationship between them, to detect and prevent arrhythmia or sudden death. METHODS We collected 272 CMD patients (maintained a fixed drug dose pattern for 1 year or more), including 95 schizophrenias (SC), 90 bipolar disorders (BD) and 87 major depressive disorders (MDD), and 78 healthy controls (HC) from the Third People's Hospital of Foshan, China. We analyzed and compared their blood lipid and ECG indicators, to clarify the relationship between them. RESULTS 350 participants were included. There were no significant differences in age, gender, total cholesterol (TC), low density lipoprotein (LDL) and QTc (p > 0.05) among subjects. And there were significant differences in body mass index (BMI), triglyceride (TG), high density lipoprotein (HDL), heart rate, PR interval and QRS width (p < 0.05). Person correlation analysis showed that QRS width was positively correlated with BMI and TG. And negatively correlated with HDL. Meanwhile, QTc was positively correlated with BMI. Multiple linear regional analysis further proved that TG (B = 3.849, p = 0.007) and LDL (B = 11.764, p = 0.018) were the risk factors, and HDL (B = -9.935, p = 0.025) was the protective factor for QRS width increase. CONCLUSION Long term medication of CMD patients should strengthen weight management, and conduct regular blood lipid and ECG examinations to achieve early detection and intervention in order to promote their health.

Abstract
Bisphenol A (BPA) is a well-known plasticizer, which is widely distributed in the aquatic environment. Lots of studies showed that BPA could lead to lipid metabolism disorder in fish, but few studies studied the mechanism from the perspective of lipid transport. Apolipoprotein A1 (ApoA1) is the main component of high-density lipoprotein (HDL), and plays important roles in reverse cholesterol transport (RCT). In this study, we investigated the effect and molecular mechanism of BPA on ApoA1 and its effect on cholesterol in adult male rare minnow. Results showed that BPA could disturb hepatic ApoA1 expression through regulating Esrrg recruitment and DNA methylation in its promoter region, and ultimately up-regulated ApoA1 protein levels. The increased hepatic ApoA1 improved HDL-C levels, enhanced RCT, and disrupted cholesterol levels. The present study reveals the effect and mechanism of BPA on fish cholesterol metabolism from the perspective of cholesterol transport.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE As a greater proportion of patients survived their initial cardiac insult, Chronic Heart Failure (CHF) is becoming a major cause of worldwide morbidity and mortality. However, the mechanism underlying the inflammation in patients with CHF has not yet been elaborated. This study aims to explore the associations between inflammation and CHF patients, and the predictive performance of inflammatory indicators in identifying patients with CHF. METHODS A matched case-control study was conducted by recruiting 385 patients who were diagnosed with CHF from January 2018 to December 2019 in The First Affiliated Hospital of Chongqing Medical University. Each CHF patient was matched against one control subject without CHF on the criteria of age, sex, Body Mass Index (BMI), smoking status, and comorbidities. The clinical data and systemic inflammatory indicators were compared between the two groups, independent risk factors of CHF were identified by multivariate regression analysis, and the predictive values of systemic inflammatory indicators for CHF were analyzed by Receiver Operating Characteristic (ROC) curve analysis. RESULTS After processed in the univariate and multivariate regression analysis models, three systemic inflammatory indicators (hs-CRP [high sensitivity C Reactive Protein], LMR [lymphocyte-to-monocyte ratio], and Monocyte-to-High-density-lipoprotein Ratio [MHR]) were considered as independent predictors of CHF, among which the hs-CRP exhibited the best predictive performance (AUC = 0.752, 95%CI 0.717‒0.786, p < 0.001), followed by LMR (AUC = 0.711, 95% CI 0.675‒0.747, p < 0.001) and MHR (AUC = 0.673, 95% CI 0.635‒0.710, p < 0.001). The three-indicator combination showed an improved diagnostic performance (AUC = 0.757, 95% CI 0.724‒0.791, p < 0.001). In addition, the results of subgroup comparisons demonstrated that hs-CRP and MHR were associated with the severity of CHF (p < 0.001). CONCLUSIONS The systemic inflammatory indicators such as hs-CRP, LMR, and MHR were independently correlated with the attack of CHF and might be the complementary markers of the diagnosis of CHF.

Abstract
Bisphenol A (BPA) is a well-known plasticizer that widely distributed in the aquatic environment. BPA has many adverse effects on reproduction. However, few studies have investigated the mechanism of BPA affecting reproduction from the perspective of lipid metabolism. Apolipoprotein A1 (ApoA1) is the major component of high-density lipoprotein (HDL), and plays critical roles in reverse cholesterol transport (RCT). In this study, in order to investigate the effect and molecular mechanism of BPA on testicular ApoA1 and the role of ApoA1 in BPA induced abnormal spermatogenesis, adult male rare minnow Gobiocypris rarus were exposed to 15 μg/L of BPA for 1, 3 and 5 weeks. Results showed that BPA could significantly affect testicular ApoA1 mRNA and protein levels, testicular cholesterol levels, plasmatic sex hormone levels and the integrity of sperm head membrane. The main mechanism of BPA regulating ApoA1 expression is to alter Esr recruitment and CpG sites DNA methylation in ApoA1 promoter. The induced ApoA1 up-regulated high density lipoprotein cholesterol levels and enhanced RCT, and finally decreased the testicular free cholesterol levels. This is likely a key mechanism by which BPA induces sex hormone disorder and sperm head membrane damage. The present study reveals the mechanism by which BPA interferes with spermatogenesis from the perspective of cholesterol transport.

Abstract
Significance: Atherosclerotic cardiovascular diseases (ACVDs) continue to be a primary cause of mortality worldwide in adults aged 35-70 years, occurring more often in countries with lower economic development, and they constitute an ever-growing global burden that has a considerable socioeconomic impact on society. The ACVDs encompass diverse pathologies such as coronary artery disease and heart failure (HF), among others. Recent Advances: It is known that oxidative stress plays a relevant role in ACVDs and some of its effects are mediated by lipid oxidation. In particular, lipid peroxidation (LPO) is a process under which oxidants such as reactive oxygen species attack unsaturated lipids, generating a wide array of oxidation products. These molecules can interact with circulating lipoproteins, to diffuse inside the cell and even to cross biological membranes, modifying target nucleophilic sites within biomolecules such as DNA, lipids, and proteins, and resulting in a plethora of biological effects. Critical Issues: This review summarizes the evidence of the effect of LPO in the development and progression of atherosclerosis-based diseases, HF, and other cardiovascular diseases, highlighting the role of protein adduct formation. Moreover, potential therapeutic strategies targeted at lipoxidation in ACVDs are also discussed. Future Directions: The identification of valid biomarkers for the detection of lipoxidation products and adducts may provide insights into the improvement of the cardiovascular risk stratification of patients and the development of therapeutic strategies against the oxidative effects that can then be applied within a clinical setting.

Abstract
Studying the role of circulatory factors in the pathogenesis of diseases has been key to the development of effective therapies. We sought to examine the effect of antihypertensive therapies on numerous circulatory factors including short chain fatty acids and growth factors in a human cohort. A subset of participants from an earlier study was characterized by their hypertensive and/or treatment status and separated into three groups: (i) normotensives; (ii) untreated hypertensive and (iii) treated hypertensive subjects. Circulating levels of short chain fatty acids, FGF21 and TNF superfamily members were measured as part of this study. Both F2-isoprostane and circulating lipid levels were reanalysed as part of this current study. We found that antihypertensive treatment increased butyrate levels and decreased acetate levels to levels similar to normotensives. We also found that antihypertensive treatments reduced levels of circulating FGF21, TNFSF14 and TNF-α. In conclusion, we identified several circulatory factors that are altered in hypertension.
