Visit-to-visit blood pressure variability is associated with intrinsic capacity decline: Results from the MAPT Study. Eur J Intern Med 2024; 125:82-88.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The effectiveness of the body physiological regulatory mechanisms declines in late life, and increased Blood Pressure Variability (BPV) may represent an alteration in cardiovascular homeostatic patterns. Intrinsic Capacity (IC) has been proposed by the World Health Organization as a marker of healthy aging, based on individual's functional abilities and intended at preserving successful aging. We aimed to investigate the association of visit-to-visit BPV with IC decline in a population of community-dwelling older adults. METHODS The study population consisted of 1407 community-dwelling participants aged ≥70 years from the MAPT study evaluated during the 5-year follow-up. Systolic BPV (SBPV) and diastolic BPV (DBPV) were determined through six indicators. Cognition, psychology, locomotion and vitality constituted the four IC domains assessed. Total IC Z-score resulted from the sum of the four domains Z-scores divided by 4. The incidence of domain impairment over time was also assessed. RESULTS Higher SBPV was significantly associated with poorer IC Z-scores in all linear mixed models [1-SD increase of CV%: β(SE)=-0.010(0.001), p < 0.01]. Similar results were observed for DBPV [1-SD increase of CV%: β(SE)=-0.003(0.001), p = 0.02]. Incident IC impairment was significantly higher in participants with greater SBPV, [HR=1.16 (95 % CI, 1.01-1.33), p = 0.03], while greater DBPV did not show a higher risk of incident IC impairment. CONCLUSIONS Greater BPV is associated with IC decline over time. Our findings support BP instability as a presumable index of altered cardiovascular homeostatic mechanism, suggesting that BPV might be a clinical marker of aging and addressable risk factor for promoting healthy aging.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE We aimed to investigate the correlation between long-term blood pressure variability (BPV) and the risk of cardiovascular diseases (CVDs) among population with different blood pressure statuses (normotension, well-controlled hypertension, and uncontrolled hypertension). METHODS In this ambispective cohort study, CVD-free residents aged over 50 years were consecutively enrolled from two community health service centers (CHCs) in Tianjin, China from April 2017 to May 2017. Information on blood pressure was retrospectively extracted from electronic medical records of CHCs between January 2010 and May 2017, and the occurrence of new-onset CVDs was prospectively observed during follow-up until September 2019. Long-term variation of SBP and DBP was assessed using four indicators: SD, coefficient of variation (CV), average successive variability (ASV), and average real variability (ARV). Cox proportional hazards regression model was developed to identify the potential impact of BPV on the incidence of CVDs. The receiver operating characteristic curve (ROC) was utilized to evaluate the predictive value of BPV indicators for the occurrence of CVDs. RESULTS Of 1275 participants included, 412 (32.3%) experienced new CVD events during the median 7.7 years of follow-up, with an incidence density of 499/10 000 person-year in the whole cohort. Cox regression analysis revealed that almost all SBP and DBP variability indicators (except for SBP-SD) were significantly related to the risk of CVDs, especially among individuals with well-controlled hypertension. A trend toward an increased risk of CVDs across BPV quartiles was also observed. Moderate predictive abilities of BPV were observed, with the area under ROC curves ranging between 0.649 and 0.736. For SBP variability, SD had the lowest predictive ability, whereas for DBP variability, ARV had the lowest predictive ability. No significant association of CVDs with SBP-SD was found in all analyses, no matter as a continuous or categorical variable. CONCLUSION Elevated long-term BPV is associated with an increased risk of CVDs, especially among individuals with well-controlled hypertension. CV and ASV had higher predictive values than SD and ARV.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Variability in biological parameters may be associated with adverse outcomes. The aim of the study was to determine whether variability in body mass index (BMI) and blood pressure is associated with all-cause, cardiovascular mortality and cancer mortality or with renal disease progression in subjects with type 2 diabetes. METHODS The diabetes database was accessed, and all the information on patient visits (consultations) carried out in the study period (1 January 2008-31 December 2019) was extracted and linked to the laboratory database and the mortality register. RESULTS The total number of patients included in the study population was 26,261, of whom 54.4% were male. Median (interquartile range, IQR) age was 60.2 (51.8-68.3) years. The coefficient of variability of BMI was independently associated with increased all-cause and cardiovascular, but not cancer, mortality. Glycated haemoglobin (HbA1c) was associated with increased all-cause, cardiovascular, and cancer mortality as well as with renal progression. Variability in systolic blood pressure, diastolic blood pressure, and pulse pressure was associated with increased all-cause and cardiovascular mortality in bivariate, but not in multivariate, analyses. CONCLUSIONS Variability in BMI was associated with increased all-cause and cardiovascular, but not cancer, mortality in a large real-world contemporary population. Our results also confirm the association of HbA1c with increased all-cause, cardiovascular, and cancer mortality as well as with renal progression.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES Several recent guidelines have proposed the gradual reduction of antihypertensive drugs for patients with well controlled blood pressure (BP). However, no studies have examined alterations in BP variability (BPV) during the down-titration of antihypertensives. This study aims to investigate changes in home BPV during the down-titration of antihypertensives. METHODS We analyzed 83 hypertensive patients who underwent down-titration of antihypertensives and had available home BP data during the down-titration. Down-titration was performed when home SBP was less than 120 mmHg, regardless of the clinic SBP. Primary exposure variable was the standard deviation (SD) of home BP. RESULTS Among 83 patients (mean age 66.3 ± 11.9 years; 45.8% men), down-titration led to increase home SBP (from 110.5 to 118.7 mmHg; P < 0.001), and home DBP (from 68.8 to 72.8 mmHg; P = 0.001) significantly. There were no significant differences in SDs of SBP [from 6.02 ± 3.79 to 5.76 ± 3.09 in morning, P = 0.570; from 6.13 ± 3.32 to 6.63 ± 3.70 in evening, P = 0.077; and from 6.54 (4.80, 8.31) to 6.37 (4.65, 8.76) in home SBP, P = 0.464] and SDs of DBP during the down-titration of antihypertensive drugs. CONCLUSION Down-titration of antihypertensive drugs did not have notable impact on clinic BP and home BPV, while significantly increasing home BP. These findings provide important insights indicating that the potential concern related to an increase in BPV in the planned strategy of reducing antihypertensive drugs is not substantial.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Arterial hypertension is one of the common treatment goals in today's medicine. 24-h ambulatory blood pressure measurement (ABPM) performed by oscillometric cuff-based devices is considered as the gold standard in hypertension diagnostics. This study aims at examining the measurement accuracy of a widely used, ABPM device. METHODS Fifty-two young and healthy participants underwent simultaneous 24-h ABPM on the left and the right upper arm using two Boso/A&D TM-2430 oscillometric cuff-based devices. Pressure curves of the cuffs, as well as hydrostatic pressure difference between the cuffs were recorded. RESULTS The mean differences between both simultaneous measurements were 1.16 mmHg with limits of agreement of 36.23 mmHg for SBP and 1.32 mmHg with limits of agreement of 32.65 mmHg for DBP. Excluding measurements where the pressure curves were disturbed and correcting for hydrostatic pressure difference between the cuffs, reduced the measurement error. However, limits of agreement remained around 20 mmHg. There were large differences in hypertension grading and dipping pattern classification between simultaneous measurements on the left and right arm. CONCLUSION The cuff-based ABPM device reveals notable measurement uncertainties, influencing hypertension grading, dipping pattern classification and blood pressure variability. These effects are attributed in part to disturbances during cuff deflation and hydrostatic influences. Nonetheless, ABPM has shown its clinical values in several studies, while this study underscores its still unlocked potential to improve hypertension management.

Abstract
The capacitive measurement of the head's dielectric properties has been recently proposed as a noninvasive method for deriving surrogates of craniospinal compliance (CC), a parameter used in the evaluation of space-occupying neurological disorders. With the higher prevalence of such disorders in the older compared to the younger population, data on the head's dielectric properties of older healthy individuals would be of particularly high value before assessing pathologic changes. However, so far only measurements on young volunteers (< 30 years) were reported. In the present study, we have investigated the capacitively obtained electric signal known as W in older healthy individuals. Thirteen healthy subjects aged > 60 years were included in the study. W was acquired in the resting state (supine horizontal position), and during head-up and head-down tilting. AMP, the peak-to-valley amplitude of W related to cardiac action, was extracted from W. AMP was higher in this older cohort compared to the previously investigated younger one (0°: 5965 ± 1677 arbitrary units (au)). During head-up tilting, AMP decreased (+ 60°: 4446 ± 1620 au, P < 0.001), whereas it increased during head-down tilting (- 30°: 7600 ± 2123 au, P < 0.001), as also observed in the younger cohort. Our observation that AMP, a metric potentially reflective of CC, is higher in the older compared to the younger cohort aligns with the expected decrease of CC with age. Furthermore, the robustness of AMP is reinforced by the consistent relative changes observed during tilt testing in both cohorts.

Abstract
Blood pressure variability (BPV) represents a cardiovascular risk factor, regardless of mean level of blood pressure (BP). In this post-hoc analysis from the PERson-centredness in Hypertension management using Information Technology (PERHIT) study, we aimed to explore BPV in daily home measurements in hypertensive patients from primary care, to identify factors associated with high BPV and to investigate whether estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) and pulse pressure, as markers of target organ damage (TOD), are associated with BPV. For eight consecutive weeks, 454 participants reported their daily BP and heart rate in their mobile phone, along with reports of lifestyle and hypertension-related factors. Systolic BP (SBP) values were used to calculate BPV with coefficient of variation (CV) as primary estimate. Background characteristics and self-reports were tested between fifths of CV in a linear regression model, adjusted for age and sex. Associations between BPV and eGFR and pulse pressure were tested with linear and logistic regression models. Higher home BPV was associated with higher age, BP, heart rate, and smoking. BPV was lower for participants with low alcohol consumption and treatment with calcium channel blockers. There was a significant association between BPV and pulse pressure (P = 0.015), and between BPV and eGFR (P = 0.049). Participants with high BPV reported more dizziness and palpitations. In conclusion, pulse pressure and eGFR were significantly associated with home BPV. Older age, high BP, heart rate, and smoking were associated with high BPV, but treatment with calcium channel blockers and low alcohol consumption was associated with low BPV. Trial registration: The study was registered with ClinicalTrials.gov [NCT03554382].

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Data on the association between blood pressure variability (BPV) after endovascular thrombectomy (EVT) for acute ischemic stroke (AIS) and outcomes are limited. We sought to identify whether BPV within the first 24 hours post EVT was associated with key stroke outcomes. METHODS We combined individual patient-data from five studies among AIS-patients who underwent EVT, that provided individual BP measurements after the end of the procedure. BPV was estimated as either systolic-BP (SBP) standard deviation (SD) or coefficient of variation (CV) over 24 h post-EVT. We used a logistic mixed-effects model to estimate the association [expressed as adjusted odds ratios (aOR)] between tertiles of BPV and outcomes of 90-day mortality, 90-day death or disability [modified Rankin Scale-score (mRS) > 2], 90-day functional impairment (⩾1-point increase across all mRS-scores), and symptomatic intracranial hemorrhage (sICH), adjusting for age, sex, stroke severity, co-morbidities, pretreatment with intravenous thrombolysis, successful recanalization, and mean SBP and diastolic-BP levels within the first 24 hours post EVT. RESULTS There were 2640 AIS-patients included in the analysis. The highest tertile of SBP-SD was associated with higher 90-day mortality (aOR:1.44;95% CI:1.08-1.92), 90-day death or disability (aOR:1.49;95% CI:1.18-1.89), and 90-day functional impairment (adjusted common OR:1.42;95% CI:1.18-1.72), but not with sICH (aOR:1.22;95% CI:0.76-1.98). Similarly, the highest tertile of SBP-CV was associated with higher 90-day mortality (aOR:1.33;95% CI:1.01-1.74), 90-day death or disability (aOR:1.50;95% CI:1.19-1.89), and 90-day functional impairment (adjusted common OR:1.38;95% CI:1.15-1.65), but not with sICH (aOR:1.33;95% CI:0.83-2.14). CONCLUSIONS BPV after EVT appears to be associated with higher mortality and disability, independently of mean BP levels within the first 24 h post EVT. BPV in the first 24 h may be a novel target to improve outcomes after EVT for AIS.

[PMID: 38354947 DOI: 10.1016/j.cjca.2024.02.004] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/15/2023] [Revised: 02/08/2024] [Accepted: 02/08/2024] [Indexed: 02/16/2024] Open
Abstract
Population aging and the associated increase in cardiovascular disease rates pose serious threats to global public health. Different forms of fasting have become an increasingly attractive strategy to directly address aging and potentially limit or delay the onset of cardiovascular diseases. A growing number of experimental studies and clinical trials indicate that the amount and timing of food intake as well as the daily time window during which food is consumed, are crucial determinants of cardiovascular health. Indeed, intermittent fasting counteracts the molecular hallmarks of cardiovascular aging and promotes different aspects of cardiometabolic health, including blood pressure and glycemic control, as well as body weight reduction. In this report, we summarize current evidence from randomized clinical trials of intermittent fasting on body weight and composition as well as cardiovascular and metabolic risk factors. Moreover, we critically discuss the preventive and therapeutic potential of intermittent fasting, but also possible detrimental effects in the context of cardiovascular aging and related disease. We delve into the physiological mechanisms through which intermittent fasting might improve cardiovascular health, and raise important factors to consider in the design of clinical trials on the efficacy of intermittent fasting to reduce major adverse cardiovascular events among aged individuals at high risk of cardiovascular disease. We conclude that despite growing evidence and interest among the lay and scientific communities in the cardiovascular health-improving effects of intermittent fasting, further research efforts and appropriate caution are warranted before broadly implementing intermittent fasting regimens, especially in elderly persons.

Recent Advances and Future Directions in Syncope Management: A Comprehensive Narrative Review. J Clin Med 2024; 13:727. [PMID: 38337421 PMCID: PMC10856004 DOI: 10.3390/jcm13030727] [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: 01/09/2024] [Revised: 01/21/2024] [Accepted: 01/25/2024] [Indexed: 02/12/2024] Open
Abstract
Syncope is a highly prevalent clinical condition characterized by a rapid, complete, and brief loss of consciousness, followed by full recovery caused by cerebral hypoperfusion. This symptom carries significance, as its potential underlying causes may involve the heart, blood pressure, or brain, leading to a spectrum of consequences, from sudden death to compromised quality of life. Various factors contribute to syncope, and adhering to a precise diagnostic pathway can enhance diagnostic accuracy and treatment effectiveness. A standardized initial assessment, risk stratification, and appropriate test identification facilitate determining the underlying cause in the majority of cases. New technologies, including artificial intelligence and smart devices, may have the potential to reshape syncope management into a proactive, personalized, and data-centric model, ultimately enhancing patient outcomes and quality of life. This review addresses key aspects of syncope management, including pathogenesis, current diagnostic testing options, treatments, and considerations in the geriatric population.

Visit-to-visit variability in blood pressure and the risk of open-angle glaucoma in individuals without systemic hypertension: a nationwide population-based cohort study. Front Med (Lausanne) 2024; 10:1300778. [PMID: 38269321 PMCID: PMC10805885 DOI: 10.3389/fmed.2023.1300778] [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: 10/04/2023] [Accepted: 12/28/2023] [Indexed: 01/26/2024] Open
Abstract
Purpose We aimed to evaluate the effect of visit-to-visit variability in blood pressure (BP) on the risk of open-angle glaucoma (OAG) in individuals without systemic hypertension using a population-based retrospective cohort study design. Methods The Korean National Health Insurance Service-National Health Screening Cohort database, which collected data of 209,226 individuals between 2002 and 2015, was used to analyze the data of 140,910 eligible participants. The mean follow-up duration was 8.3 years. Visit-to-visit BP variability was assessed using standard deviation (SD), coefficient of variation (CV), and variability independent of the mean (VIM). Participants were categorized into four groups according to BP variability quartiles. We verified the effect of BP variability by comparing participants of the first to third quartiles of BP variability groups with those belonging to the fourth quartile group. A Cox proportional hazards model was used to determine the hazard ratio (HR) of BP variability in cases of newly diagnosed OAG. Moreover, we conducted subgroup analyses using baseline characteristics. Results In the multivariable analyses, BP variability did not significantly increase the risk of OAG development. However, subgroup analyses revealed significant interactions between age and systolic BP variability in the development of OAG (CV: p = 0.008; SD: p = 0.007). For participants aged <60 years, the risk of OAG development significantly increased with high systolic BP variability (CV: HR, 1.18; 95% confidence interval [CI], 1.00-1.39; p = 0.049). We observed a similar trend using the SD and VIM as the parameters for systolic BP variability. Conclusion Higher visit-to-visit systolic BP variability was associated with an increased risk of OAG development in participants younger than 60 years of age without systemic hypertension. These results suggest that BP variability can be the considerable factor when assessing the risk of OAG, especially in relatively young people without systemic hypertension.

Abstract
According to the Geroscience concept that organismal aging and age-associated diseases share the same basic molecular mechanisms, the identification of biomarkers of age that can efficiently classify people as biologically older (or younger) than their chronological (i.e. calendar) age is becoming of paramount importance. These people will be in fact at higher (or lower) risk for many different age-associated diseases, including cardiovascular diseases, neurodegeneration, cancer, etc. In turn, patients suffering from these diseases are biologically older than healthy age-matched individuals. Many biomarkers that correlate with age have been described so far. The aim of the present review is to discuss the usefulness of some of these biomarkers (especially soluble, circulating ones) in order to identify frail patients, possibly before the appearance of clinical symptoms, as well as patients at risk for age-associated diseases. An overview of selected biomarkers will be discussed in this regard, in particular we will focus on biomarkers related to metabolic stress response, inflammation, and cell death (in particular in neurodegeneration), all phenomena connected to inflammaging (chronic, low-grade, age-associated inflammation). In the second part of the review, next-generation markers such as extracellular vesicles and their cargos, epigenetic markers and gut microbiota composition, will be discussed. Since recent progresses in omics techniques have allowed an exponential increase in the production of laboratory data also in the field of biomarkers of age, making it difficult to extract biological meaning from the huge mass of available data, Artificial Intelligence (AI) approaches will be discussed as an increasingly important strategy for extracting knowledge from raw data and providing practitioners with actionable information to treat patients.

Abstract
Objective Several recent reports have suggested the use of mean arterial blood pressure (MAP) to assess/predict the risk of developing atherosclerosis, chronic kidney disease, diabetes, metabolic syndrome, and poor prognosis in a variety of cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases. The current study aimed to investigate the association of MAP with non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) and to explore the differences in this association across populations. Methods This study used data from the NAGALA study from 1994 to 2016. MAP was calculated as 1/3 systolic blood pressure (SBP) + 2/3 diastolic blood pressure (DBP). Restricted cubic spline (RCS) and logistic regression models were used to examine the correlation of MAP with NAFLD. Results The study population was 14,251 general people undergoing health screening, with a median (interquartile range) age of 42 (36-50) years; among them, 48% were women, and 2,507 (17.59%) were diagnosed with NAFLD. After fully controlling for confounders in the current dataset, MAP was positively and non-linearly associated with NAFLD [(odds ratios (ORs): 1.39, 95% confidence intervals (CIs): 1.15, 1.68); P for non-linearity = 0.024]; the dose-response curve showed that there was a transient saturation effect interval when MAP was between 85 and 95 mmHg, where the risk of NAFLD was neither increased nor decreased. The results of the stratified analysis showed that the risk of NAFLD associated with MAP appeared to be influenced only by age (P-interaction = 0.002), but not by sex, body mass index (BMI), habits of exercise, drinking status, or smoking status (P-interaction > 0.05); further age-stratified RCS analysis showed that the non-linear association between MAP and NAFLD in the young and middle-aged and the middle-aged and elderly populations was consistent with the results of the whole population, whereas, in the elderly population, a U-shaped curve association between MAP and NAFLD was observed, with both low and high MAP increasing the risk of NAFLD. Conclusion In the general population, MAP was positively and non-linearly associated with NAFLD, and this association only differed significantly by age, but not by sex, BMI, habits of exercise, drinking status, and smoking status.

Abstract
Endothelial cells (ECs) form the inner linings of blood vessels, and are directly exposed to endogenous hazard signals and metabolites in the circulatory system. The senescence and death of ECs are not only adverse outcomes, but also causal contributors to endothelial dysfunction, an early risk marker of atherosclerosis. The pathophysiological process of EC senescence involves both structural and functional changes and has been linked to various factors, including oxidative stress, dysregulated cell cycle, hyperuricemia, vascular inflammation, and aberrant metabolite sensing and signaling. Multiple forms of EC death have been documented in atherosclerosis, including autophagic cell death, apoptosis, pyroptosis, NETosis, necroptosis, and ferroptosis. Despite this, the molecular mechanisms underlying EC senescence or death in atherogenesis are not fully understood. To provide a comprehensive update on the subject, this review examines the historic and latest findings on the molecular mechanisms and functional alterations associated with EC senescence and death in different stages of atherosclerosis.

Abstract
Hypertension and derived cardiovascular disease (CVD) are among the leading causes of death worldwide. Increased oxidative stress and inflammatory state are involved in different alterations in endothelial functions that contribute to the onset of CVD. Polyphenols, and in particular anthocyanins, have aroused great interest for their antioxidant effects and their cardioprotective role. However, anthocyanins are rarely detected in blood serum because they are primarily metabolized by the gut microbiota. This review presents studies published to date that report the main results from clinical studies on the cardioprotective effects of anthocyanins and the role of the gut microbiota in the metabolism and bioavailability of anthocyanins and their influence on the composition of the microbiota. Even if it seems that anthocyanins have a significant effect on vascular health, more studies are required to better clarify which molecules and doses show vascular benefits without forgetting the crucial role of the microbiota.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Biological ageing is tightly linked to cardiovascular disease (CVD). We aimed to investigate the relationship between Life's Essential 8 (LE8), a currently updated measure of cardiovascular health (CVH), and biological ageing. METHODS This cross-sectional study selected adults ≥ 20 years of age from the 2005-2010 National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey. LE8 scores (range 0-100) were obtained from measurements based on American Heart Association definitions, divided into health behavior and health factor scores. Biological ageing was assessed by different methods including phenotypic age, phenotypic age acceleration (PhenoAgeAccel), biological age and biological age acceleration (BioAgeAccel). Correlations were analyzed by weighted linear regression and restricted cubic spline models. RESULTS Of the 11,729 participants included, the mean age was 47.41 ± 0.36 years and 5983 (51.01%) were female. The mean phenotypic and biological ages were 42.96 ± 0.41 and 46.75 ± 0.39 years, respectively, and the mean LE8 score was 67.71 ± 0.35. After adjusting for potential confounders, higher LE8 scores were associated with lower phenotypic age, biological age, PhenoAgeAccel, and BioAgeAccel, with nonlinear dose-response relationships. Negative associations were also found between health behavior and health factor scores and biological ageing, and were stronger for health factors. In health factor-specific analyses, the β negativity was greater for blood glucose and blood pressure. The inverse correlations of LE8 scores with phenotypic age and biological age in the stratified analyses remained solid across strata. CONCLUSIONS LE8 and its subscale scores were strongly negatively related to biological ageing. Encouraging optimal CVH levels may be advantageous in preventing and slowing down ageing.

Brachial-ankle pulse wave velocity is a stronger predictor than blood pressure for atherosclerotic cardiovascular diseases and all-cause mortality: a cohort study. Hypertens Res 2023; 46:2100-2112. [PMID: 37237106 DOI: 10.1038/s41440-023-01313-y] [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: 11/15/2022] [Revised: 04/23/2023] [Accepted: 04/28/2023] [Indexed: 05/28/2023]
Abstract
Whether brachial-ankle pulse wave velocity (baPWV) is a better predictive indicator than blood pressure (BP) for atherosclerotic cardiovascular diseases (ASCVD) events and all-cause mortality in the general population has not yet been established. The current study included 47,659 participants from the Kailuan cohort in China, who underwent the baPWV test and were free of ASCVD, atrial fibrillation, and cancer at baseline. The hazard ratios (HRs) of ASCVD and all-cause mortality were evaluated using the Cox proportional hazards model. The predictive ability of baPWV, systolic BP (SBP), and diastolic BP (DBP) for ASCVD and all-cause mortality was evaluated using the area under the curve (AUC) and concordance index (C-index). Within the median follow-up period of 3.27 and 3.32 person-years, 885 ASCVD events and 259 deaths occurred, respectively. The HRs of ASCVD and all-cause mortality increased with the increase of baPWV, SBP, and DBP. When baPWV, SBP, and DBP were analyzed as continuous variables, the adjusted HRs were 1.29 (95% CI, 1.22-1.37), 1.28 (95% CI, 1.20-1.37), and 1.26 (95% CI, 1.17-1.34) for each standard deviation increase, respectively. The AUC and C-index for baPWV in predicting ASCVD and all-cause mortality were 0.744 and 0.750, respectively, while those for SBP were 0.697 and 0.620, those for DBP were 0.666 and 0.585. The AUC and C-index of baPWV were higher than those of SBP and DBP (P < 0.001). Therefore, baPWV is an independent predictor of ASCVD and all-cause mortality in the general Chinese population, and its predictive ability is superior to that of BP. baPWV is a more ideal screening method for ASCVD in large-scale population.

Ageing Res Rev 2023; 87:101925. [PMID: 37028604 DOI: 10.1016/j.arr.2023.101925] [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: 02/03/2023] [Revised: 03/26/2023] [Accepted: 04/01/2023] [Indexed: 04/09/2023]
Abstract
Autonomic dysfunction and frailty are two common and complex geriatric syndromes. Their prevalence increases with age and they have similar negative health outcomes. In PubMed and Web of Science we screened studies identifying a relationship between autonomic function (AF) and frailty in adults aged ≥65 years. Twenty-two studies of which two prospective and 20 cross-sectional were included (n=8375). We performed a meta-analysis for the articles addressing orthostatic hypotension (OH). Frailty was associated with 1.6 higher odds of suffering from consensus OH (COH) {OR=1.607 95%CI [1.15-2.24]; 7 studies; n=3488}. When measured for each type of OH the largest trend was seen between initial OH (IOH) and frailty {OR=3.08; 95%CI [1.50-6.36]; 2 studies; n=497}. Fourteen studies reported other autonomic function alterations in frail older adults with 4-22% reduction in orthostatic heart rate increase, 6% reduction in systolic blood pressure recovery, 9-75% reduction in most common used heart rate variability (HRV) parameters. Frail older adults were more likely to have impaired AF. Diagnosis of frailty should promptly lead to orthostatic testing as OH implicates specific treatment modalities, which differ from frailty management. As IOH is most strongly correlated with frailty, continuous beat to beat blood pressure measurements should be performed when present at least until cut-off values for heart rate variability testing are defined.

Abstract
Frailty is a global health problem that impacts clinical practice. It is complex, having a physical and a cognitive component, and it is the result of many contributing factors. Frail patients have oxidative stress and elevated proinflammatory cytokines. Frailty impairs many systems and results in a reduced physiological reserve and increased vulnerability to stress. It is related to aging and to cardiovascular diseases (CVD). There are few studies on the genetic factors of frailty, but epigenetic clocks determine age and frailty. In contrast, there is genetic overlap of frailty with cardiovascular disease and its risk factors. Frailty is not yet considered a risk factor for CVD. It is accompanied by a loss and/or poor functioning of muscle mass, which depends on fiber protein content, resulting from the balance between protein breakdown and synthesis. Bone fragility is also implied, and there is a crosstalk between adipocytes, myocytes, and bone. The identification and assessment of frailty is difficult, without there being a standard instrument to identify or treat it. Measures to prevent its progression include exercises, as well as supplementing the diet with vitamin D and K, calcium, and testosterone. In conclusion, more research is needed to better understand frailty and to avoid complications in CVD.

Abstract
Objectives: To examine the association between visit-to-visit blood pressure variability (BPV) and incident diabetes mellitus (DM) risk in a Chinese population. Methods: Data comes from China Health and Nutrition Survey (n = 15,084). BPV was estimated as the average real variability (ARV) using at least three BP measurements from the year preceding the event and was divided into quartiles. Participants were also categorized into 9 groups on the basis of combinations of systolic BPV (SBPV) and diastolic BPV (DBPV) tertiles. Cox proportional hazards regression models were used. Results: During a median follow-up of 16.8 years, 1,030 (6.8%) participants developed diabetes (incidence rate: 4.65/1,000 person-years). The HRs (95% CIs) for the highest quartile (vs. the lowest quartile) of SBPV and DBPV were 1.60 (1.30-1.97) and 1.37 (1.13-1.67), respectively. Participants with both highest SBPV and DBPV tertile had an ≈89% higher risk of DM (HR, 1.89; 95% CI, 1.47-2.42) compared with those in the both SBPV and DBPV tertile 1 group. Conclusion: Higher SBP ARV and DBP ARV were independently associated with increased risk of incident DM, which was augmented when both presented together.

Abstract
Aging is a complex biological process with multifactorial nature underlined by genetic, environmental, and social factors. In the present paper, we review several mechanisms of aging and the pre-clinically and clinically studied anti-aging therapies. Variability characterizes biological processes from the genome to cellular organelles, biochemical processes, and whole organs' function. Aging is associated with alterations in the degrees of variability and complexity of systems. The constrained disorder principle defines living organisms based on their inherent disorder within arbitrary boundaries and defines aging as having a lower variability or moving outside the boundaries of variability. We focus on associations between variability and hallmarks of aging and discuss the roles of disorder and variability of systems in the pathogenesis of aging. The paper presents the concept of implementing the constrained disease principle-based second-generation artificial intelligence systems for improving anti-aging modalities. The platform uses constrained noise to enhance systems' efficiency and slow the aging process. Described is the potential use of second-generation artificial intelligence systems in patients with chronic disease and its implications for the aged population.

Abstract
Most physiopathological mechanisms underlying blood pressure variability (BPV) are implicated in aging. Vascular aging is associated with chronic low-grade inflammation occurring in late life, known as "inflammaging" and the hallmark "mitochondrial dysfunction" due to age-related stress. We aimed to determine whether plasma levels of the pleiotropic stress-related mitokine growth/differentiation factor 15 (GDF-15) and two inflammatory biomarkers, interleukin 6 (IL-6) and tumor necrosis factor receptor 1 (TNFR-1), are associated with visit-to-visit BPV in a population of community-dwelling older adults. The study population consisted of 1096 community-dwelling participants [median age 75 (72-78) years; 699 females, 63.7%] aged ≥ 70 years from the MAPT study. Plasma blood sample was collected 12 months after enrolment and BP was assessed up to seven times over a 4-year period. Systolic (SBPV) and diastolic BPV (DBPV) were determined through several indicators taking into account BP change over time, the order of measurements and formulas independent of mean BP levels. Higher values of GDF-15 were significantly associated with increased SBPV (all indicators) after adjustment for relevant covariates [adjusted 1-SD increase in GDF-15: β (SE) = 0.07 (0.04), p < 0.044, for coefficient of variation%]. GDF-15 levels were not associated with DBPV. No significant associations were found between IL-6 and BPV, whereas TNFR1 was only partially related to DBPV. Unlike inflammation biomarkers, higher GDF-15 levels were associated with greater SBPV. Our findings support the age-related process of mitochondrial dysfunction underlying BP instability, suggesting that BPV might be a potential marker of aging.
