Efficacy and safety of ongericimab given by prefilled syringe or autoinjector in primary hypercholesterolemia and mixed hyperlipidemia. Nutr Metab Cardiovasc Dis 2024; 34:2217-2225. [PMID: 38866609 DOI: 10.1016/j.numecd.2024.04.011] [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: 12/19/2023] [Revised: 04/15/2024] [Accepted: 04/19/2024] [Indexed: 06/14/2024]
Abstract
BACKGROUND AND AIMS Limited evidence exist regarding the association between ongericimab, a novel recombinant humanized anti-PCSK9 monoclonal antibody, and primary hypercholesterolemia and mixed dyslipidemia. This study aimed to evaluate the efficacy and safety of ongericimab administered by prefilled syringe (PFS) or autoinjector (AI) in Chinese patients with primary hypercholesterolemia and mixed dyslipidemia on stable optimized lipid-lowering therapy. METHODS AND RESULTS A total of 255 patients on stable optimized lipid-lowering therapy were randomized in a 2:1:2:1 ratio to receive PFS for the subcutaneous injection of ongericimab 150 mg every 2 weeks (Q2W) or a matching placebo, or AI for the subcutaneous injection of ongericimab 150 mg Q2W or a matching placebo. The primary efficacy endpoint was the percent change in low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C) levels from baseline to week 12. Safety was also evaluated. At week 12, the least squares mean percent changes were -72.7% (3.9%) for PFS and -71.1% (3.8%) for AI (all P < 0.001) compared to respective matching placebo groups. Beneficial effects were also seen for all secondary lipid parameters, notably with robust reduction in Lp (a). Treatment-emergent adverse events (TEAEs) and serious AEs with ongericimab were reported in 46.2% and 2.4% of patients, compared to 44.2% and 3.5% with placebo. CONCLUSION In Chinese patients with primary hypercholesterolemia and mixed dyslipidemia, a 12-week treatment regimen with ongericimab administered by PFS or AI significantly reduced LDL-C and other lipid parameters, proving to be safe and well tolerated. Patients experienced consistent effects from PFS or AI devices. CLINICAL TRIAL REGISTRATION CTR20220027; January 11, 2022; http://www.chinadrugtrials.org.cn/index.html.

Sodium sulphate ameliorates hypercholesterolemia via the upregulation of Cyp7a1 in hepatocytes and alleviates hepatic insulin resistance via the downregulation of Trib3 in mice with high cholesterol diets. Exp Ther Med 2024; 28:361. [PMID: 39071912 PMCID: PMC11273247 DOI: 10.3892/etm.2024.12650] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/02/2023] [Accepted: 12/06/2023] [Indexed: 07/30/2024] Open
Abstract
Amelioration of hypercholesterolemia is essential for the treatment of atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease. Sodium sulphate is the effective component of mirabilite, which has been used in traditional Chinese medicine for the treatment of various diseases. In the present study, C57BL/6 mice were fed with a high-cholesterol diet (HCD) for 7 weeks and were treated with sodium sulphate in the last three of those weeks. Sodium sulphate significantly reduced the total cholesterol level and the low-density lipoprotein cholesterol/high-density lipoprotein cholesterol ratio in the serum of mice fed the HCD. In addition, cytochrome P450 7a1 and 39a1 were significantly upregulated in the livers of mice treated with sodium sulphate. Furthermore, tribbles pseudokinase 3 expression was significantly increased in the livers of mice fed the HCD, but was significantly reduced by sodium sulphate treatment. In terms of the insulin signaling pathway, the ratio of phosphorylated AKT to total AKT in the livers of mice fed the HCD was significantly lower compared with that of control mice fed a normal diet, but was significantly increased by sodium sulphate treatment. Sodium sulphate treatment also reduced the levels of fibroblast growth factor (FGF)15 in the ileum and inhibited the FGF15/FGF receptor 4-Klotho β/c-Jun N-terminal kinase/c-Jun signaling pathway in the livers of mice fed the HCD. In addition, sodium sulphate changed the composition of the gut microbiota of mice fed the HCD. In conclusion, sodium sulphate may mitigate hypercholesterolemia and hepatic insulin resistance in mice fed an HCD.

Co-exposure to parabens, bisphenol A, and triclosan and the associations with dyslipidemia in Chinese older adults: the mediation effect of oxidative stress. ENVIRONMENTAL RESEARCH 2024; 262:119835. [PMID: 39181298 DOI: 10.1016/j.envres.2024.119835] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/06/2024] [Revised: 08/19/2024] [Accepted: 08/21/2024] [Indexed: 08/27/2024]
Abstract
Dyslipidemia is a prevalent metabolic disorder in older adults and has negative effects on cardiovascular health. However, the combined effect of paraben, bisphenol A (BPA), and triclosan (TCS) exposure on dyslipidemia and the underlying mechanisms remain unclear. This cross-sectional study recruited 486 individuals ≥60 years in Shenzhen, China. Morning spot urine samples were collected and analyzed for four parabens, BPA, TCS, and 8-hydroxy-2'-deoxyguanosine (8-OHdG), a typical biomarker for oxidative stress, using mass spectrometry. Blood samples were tested for lipid levels using an automated biochemical analyzer. Quantile-based g-computation (QGC) was used to assess the combined effects of exposures on dyslipidemia. Mediation analysis was applied to investigate the mediating role of 8-OHdG between exposure and dyslipidemia. QGC showed that co-exposure to parabens, BPA, and TCS was positively linked with hypercholesterolemia (OR: 1.17, 95%CI: 1.10-1.24, P<0.001) and hyper-LDL-cholesterolemia (OR: 1.35, 95%CI: 1.05-1.75, P=0.019). Methylparaben (MeP), n-propyl paraben (PrP), and butylparaben (BtP) were the major contributors. 8-OHdG mediated 6.5% and 13.0% of the overall effect of the examined chemicals on hypercholesterolemia and hyper-LDL-cholesterolemia, respectively (all P<0.05). Our study indicated that co-exposure to parabens, BPA, and TCS is associated with dyslipidemia and oxidative stress partially mediate the association. Future research is needed to explore additional mechanisms underlying these relationships.

Abstract
Antiretroviral regimens for human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) infection have continuously evolved; however, antiretrovirals can cause severe adverse reactions. Two-drug regimen therapy can decrease lifetime cumulative drug exposure and long-term toxicities associated with multiple antiretrovirals. The preferred 2-drug regimen constitutes dolutegravir (DTG) and lamivudine (3TC). This study determined the rate of virological suppression and incidence of adverse events at week 48 in treatment-naïve people living with HIV initiated on DTG + 3TC. This was a single-center, retrospective, observational study. Treatment-naïve people aged ≥18 years who received at least 1 DTG + 3TC dose between May 2020 and May 2022 were included. Eighty-nine people living with HIV were enrolled. Twenty-five (28.1%) patients with a DTG + 3TC regimen at baseline were analyzed because of comorbidities, and 48% because of concomitant tuberculosis (TB). Viral suppression at 48 weeks was achieved in 91.67% of patients, and TB was well controlled. At week 48, 84 (94.38%) patients had viral loads < 50 copies/mL, and 21 (91.31%) of the 23 participants with a baseline HIV-1-RNA level ≥ 1 × 105 copies/mL achieved virological success. Fifteen (88.23%) of the 17 participants with a baseline CD4 + cell count of <200 cells/µL achieved virological suppression. The median CD4 + cell count change from baseline was 539.5 cells/µL. No significant changes in triglycerides, low-density lipoprotein cholesterol, weight, or creatinine were observed from baseline to 48 weeks. One patient had severe insomnia at 4 weeks. Our findings support the real-world effectiveness and low metabolic impact of DTG + 3TC. Using DTG + 3TC in patients coinfected with TB and HIV has favorable therapeutic outcomes.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Lipid metabolism factors may play a role in the development of arthritis and hepatic steatosis and fibrosis. The aim of this study was to explore the potential association between arthritis and hepatic steatosis and liver fibrosis. MATERIALS AND METHODS The nationally representative sample from the National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey was analyzed, with data on arthritis diagnosis, subtype, and liver status obtained. Liver status was assessed using transient elastography. Hepatic steatosis was defined as a Controlled Attenuation Parameter (CAP) score ≥263 dB/m, and liver fibrosis status was defined as F0‒F4. Logistic regression models and subgroup analyses stratified by sex were used to evaluate the associations. Smooth curve fitting was used to describe the associations. RESULTS The present study of 6,840 adults aged 20 years or older found a significant positive correlation between arthritis and CAP in multivariate logistic regression analysis (β = 0.003, 95 % CI 0.001 to 0.0041, p < 0.001). Participants with arthritis had a higher risk of hepatic steatosis (OR = 1.248, 95 % CI 1.036 to 1.504, p = 0.020), particularly those with osteoarthritis or degenerative arthritis, but not rheumatoid arthritis (p = 0.847). The positive correlation was maintained in females (β = 0.004, 95 % CI 0.002 to 0.006, p < 0.001), but not in males. There was no significant relationship between arthritis and liver fibrosis (p = 0.508). CONCLUSION This study indicates that there is a positive correlation between arthritis and hepatic steatosis, particularly in females. Nonetheless, there is no significant relationship between arthritis and the risk of liver fibrosis.

Hypercholesterolemia Is Associated With Dysregulation of Lipid Metabolism and Poor Prognosis in Primary Biliary Cholangitis. Clin Gastroenterol Hepatol 2024; 22:1265-1274.e19.

Abstract
BACKGROUND & AIMS Hypercholesterolemia is frequently diagnosed in patients with primary biliary cholangitis (PBC). However, its association with the prognosis and lipid metabolism is unknown. In this study, we aimed to investigate the prognostic value of baseline total cholesterol (TC) levels in PBC and characterized the associated lipid metabolism. METHODS Five hundred and thirty-one patients with PBC without prior cirrhosis-related complications were randomly divided into the derivation and validation cohorts at a ratio of 7:3. Complete clinical data were obtained and analyzed. The endpoints were defined as liver-related death, liver transplantation, and cirrhosis-related complications. Lipidomics was performed in 89 patients and 28 healthy controls. RESULTS Baseline TC was independently associated with poor liver-related outcomes, and adjusted C-statistics were 0.80 (95% confidence interval [CI]: 0.74-0.85) and 0.88 (95% CI: 0.78-0.91) in the derivation and validation cohorts, respectively. The predictive ability of TC for disease outcomes was stable over time and comparable with the Globe score. The 200 mg/dL cut-off optimally divided patients into low- and high-TC groups. A combination of TC and Globe score provided a more accurate stratification of patients into risk subgroups. Lipidomics indicated an up-regulation of lipid families in high-TC patients. Pathway analysis of 66 up-regulated lipids revealed the dysregulation of glycerophospholipid and sphingolipid metabolism in high-TC patients, which were associated with poor liver-related outcomes. CONCLUSIONS Our results indicate that patients with PBC having baseline TC levels above 200 mg/dL have unique lipidome characteristics and are at a higher risk of poor liver-related outcomes.

Dysregulated serum lipid profile is associated with inflammation and disease activity in primary Sjögren's syndrome: a retrospective study in China. Immunol Lett 2024; 267:106865. [PMID: 38705483 DOI: 10.1016/j.imlet.2024.106865] [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: 11/21/2023] [Revised: 04/23/2024] [Accepted: 05/02/2024] [Indexed: 05/07/2024]
Abstract
PURPOSE To investigate the relationship between the lipid profiles of patients with primary Sjögren's syndrome (pSS) and other clinical characteristics, laboratory examination, disease activity, and inflammatory factors. In addition, the risk factors for hyperlipidemia-related complications of pSS and the effect of hydroxychloroquine (HCQ) usage on the lipid profile were incorporated into this study. METHODS This is a single-center, retrospective study that included 367 patients who were diagnosed with pSS at Tongji Hospital, School of Medicine, Tongji University, China from January 2010 to March 2022. Initially, demographic information, clinical characteristics, medication records, and complications of the patients were gathered. A case-control analysis compared the 12 systems involvement (ESSDAI domain), clinical symptoms, and laboratory tests between pSS patients with and without dyslipidemia. A simple linear regression model was employed to investigate the relationship between serum lipid profile and inflammatory factors. Logistics regression analysis was performed to assess variables for hyperlipidemia-related complications of pSS. The paired t-test was then used to evaluate the improvement in lipid profile among pSS patients. RESULTS 48.7 % of all pSS patients had dyslipidemia, and alterations in lipid levels were related to gender, age, and smoking status but not body mass index (BMI). Dyslipidemia is more prevalent in pSS patients who exhibit heightened autoimmunity and elevated levels of inflammation. Higher concentrations of multiple highly inflammatory factors correlate with a more severe form of dyslipidemia. Non-traditional cardiovascular risk factors may contribute to hyperlipidemia-related complications of pSS, such as increased, low complement 3 (C3) and low C4. According to our study, HCQ usage may protect against lipid-related disease in pSS. CONCLUSION Attention should be paid to the dyslipidemia of pSS. This research aims to clarify the population portrait of pSS patients with abnormal lipid profiles and provides insights into the correlation between metabolism and inflammation in individuals with pSS and the potential role they play in the advancement of the disease. These findings provide novel avenues for further understanding the underlying mechanisms of pSS pathogenesis.

Yin H, Lu B, Zeng K, Li Y, Ma J. Prevalence and factors associated with dyslipidemia in patients with first hospitalization for major depressive disorder: a large sample cross-sectional study. BMC Psychiatry 2024; 24:396. [PMID: 38802840 PMCID: PMC11131298 DOI: 10.1186/s12888-024-05848-3] [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: 05/20/2023] [Accepted: 05/14/2024] [Indexed: 05/29/2024] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND Major depressive disorder (MDD) is a severe mental illness with high relapse rates and high mortality. Depression not only severely limits psychosocial functioning but also reduces quality of life. It can also negatively affect patients' clinical parameters, including lipid metabolism markers. This study aimed to investigate the prevalence and risk factors of hyperlipidemia (HL) in patients with MDD who were hospitalized for the first time. METHODS In this study, we enrolled 981 patients with MDD who were hospitalized for the first time, collected their demographic data and biochemical indicators, and evaluated their clinical symptoms. We divided the patients into HL and non-HL subgroups based on whether they had co-morbid HL. We compared whether there were significant differences between the two groups regarding demographics and general clinical information. RESULTS A total of 708 of 981 MDD patients were described as being in the hyperlipidemic group, with an incidence of 72.17%. Clinical Global Impression Scale-Severity of Illness (CGI-SI) score and Hamilton Depression Scale (HAMD) score are risk factors for co-morbid HL in patients with MDD. The area under the ROC curve for the CGI-SI and HAMD score and their combined discriminatory ability was approximately 63%, 67%, and 68%, respectively. CONCLUSION The prevalence of HL was high in patients with MDD who were first hospitalized; Higher HAMD score and CGI-SI score were risk factors for the development of HL in MDD; The HAMD score and the CGI-SI score are predictive of the severity of HL.

PSCK9 inhibitors reduced early recurrent stroke in patients with symptomatic intracranial atherosclerotic stenosis. J Neurol Neurosurg Psychiatry 2024; 95:529-535. [PMID: 38212060 DOI: 10.1136/jnnp-2023-332392] [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: 09/03/2023] [Accepted: 12/22/2023] [Indexed: 01/13/2024]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Symptomatic intracranial atherosclerotic stenosis (ICAS) is prone to cause early recurrent stroke (ERS). Proprotein convertase subtilisin/kexin type 9 (PCSK9) inhibitors lower low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C) levels and prevent cardiovascular events. This multicentre, hospital-based prospective cohort study was designed to investigate whether PCSK9 inhibitors would prevent ERS in patients with symptomatic ICAS. METHODS From 1 October 2020 to 30 September 2022, consecutive patients with acute ischaemic stroke attributed to ICAS admitted within 1 week after onset were enrolled and followed up for 1 month. Patients were divided into two groups, the PCSK9 inhibitors group receiving PCSK9 inhibitors add-on therapy, and the control group receiving statins and/or ezetimibe. The primary outcome was ERS. Cox proportional hazard models and Kaplan-Meier survival curve were used to estimate the association between PCSK9 inhibitors and ERS. RESULTS At the end of follow-up, the LDL-C levels were further lowered by PCSK9 inhibitors add-on therapy (n=232, from 3.06±1.16 mmol/L to 2.12±1.19 mmol/L) than statins and/or ezetimibe treatment (n=429, from 2.91±1.05 mmol/L to 2.64±0.86 mmol/L, p<0.001). The Kaplan-Meier survival curves showed that PCSK9 inhibitors add-on therapy significantly reduced ERS (5.59%, 24/429, vs 2.16%, 5/232; log-rank test, p=0.044). The multivariate Cox regression analysis revealed that, after adjusting for confounders with a p value less than 0.05 in univariate analysis or of particular importance, the HR was 0.335 (95% CI 0.114 to 0.986, p=0.047), compared with the control group. CONCLUSIONS In our study, PCSK9 inhibitors add-on therapy further reduced LDL-C levels and ERS in patients with symptomatic ICAS.

Abstract
Background: This study aims to explore the relationship of the low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C)/high-density lipoprotein (HDL-C) ratio with glycated hemoglobin (HbA1c), renal dysfunction, coronary heart disease (CHD) and cardiac structure and function in elderly patients with hypercholesterolemia. Methods: A total of 1129 hospitalized Chinese elderly (aged ≥ 65 years) with hypercholesterolemia were collected retrospectively. The patients were divided into low (<2.63), moderate (≥2.63 to <3.33) and high (≥3.33) LDL-C/HDL-C ratio groups according to the tertiles of LDL-C/HDL-C. Results: Regression analysis of the LDL-C/HDL-C ratio with metabolic and echocardiographic parameters revealed that a high LDL-C/HDL-C ratio (≥3.33) was associated independently with male gender, elevated HbA1c, decreased estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR), prevalent CHD and left ventricular dilatation (all p < 0.05). Conclusions: A high LDL-C/HDL-C ratio was associated with male gender, increased HbA1c, decreased eGFR, CHD and enlarged left ventricle in elderly with hypercholesterolemia.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION The efficacy and safety of ainuovirine+lamivudine+tenofovir (ANV+3TC+TDF) and efavirenz+lamivudine+tenofovir (EFV+3TC+TDF) have been confirmed in previous clinical trials; however, there are no related studies on patient-reported outcomes. This study aimed to evaluate the effectiveness and safety of these 2 antiretroviral therapy regimens and to understand the patient's symptom experience and subjective experience of sleep quality through patient-reported outcomes. METHODS This is a single-center prospective cohort study with 243 patients evaluated from October 1, 2021 to June 30, 2022. Virological effectiveness and patient-reported outcomes results were analyzed. The primary endpoint was the proportion of HIV viral load <50 copies/mL (virological suppression rate) at 48 weeks and the changes in the HIV symptom index and Pittsburgh sleep quality index. RESULTS The virological suppression rates in the ANV+3TC+TDF and EFV+3TC+TDF groups were 83.6% (102/122) and 87.6% (106/121), respectively, at 48 weeks. In the ANV+3TC+TDF group, the scores of HIV symptom index and pittsburgh sleep quality index in the 48th week were lower than the baseline level (p < 0.05). Logistic regression results showed that the baseline regimen EFV+3TC+TDF was a risk factor for dizziness/lightheadedness (odds ratio = 3.153, 95% confidence interval: 1.473-6.748, p = 0.003), sadness/depression odds ratio = 2.404, 95% confidence interval:1.188-4.871, p = 0.015), and difficulty sleeping (odds ratio = 2.802, 95% confidence interval: 1.437-5.463, p = 0.002) at 48 weeks. CONCLUSIONS Both regimens showed good virological effectiveness; however, compared with ANV+3TC+TDF, the EFV+3TC+TDF regimen reduced the prevalence of HIV-related symptoms.

Abstract
Compared to traditional small molecule and antibody drugs, RNA-based drugs offer a simple design, short research and development cycles, high specificity, broad treatment fields, and long-term efficacy. As a result, RNA-based drugs are extensively used to treat genetic diseases, tumors, viral infections, and other illnesses, suggesting that they have the potential to become the third-largest drug class after small molecule and antibody drugs. Currently, more than 10 small nucleic acid drugs have gained regulatory approval. The commercialization successes of small nucleic acid drugs will stimulate the development of RNA-based drugs. Small nucleic acid drugs primarily target liver diseases, metabolic diseases, genetic diseases, and tumors, and there is also significant potential for expanding indications in the future. This review provides a brief overview of the advantages and development of small nucleic acid-based therapeutics and shows a focus on platform technologies such as chemical modifications and delivery systems that have enabled the clinical translation of small nucleic acid-based therapeutics. Additionally, we summarize the latest clinical progress in small nucleic acid-based therapeutics for the treatment of various diseases, including rare diseases, liver diseases, metabolic diseases, and tumors. Finally, we highlight the future prospects for this promising treatment approach.

Abstract
Background Although studies have explored the association between triglyceride levels and cognitive function after acute ischemic stroke (AIS), the results have been conflicting. Therefore, the purpose of this study was to investigate the relationship between triglyceride levels and cognitive function after AIS among older adults. Methods This is an observational cross-sectional study. From November 2022 to June 2023, we consecutively collected patients diagnosed with AIS in China. Triglyceride levels were measured within 24 h of admission. The Mini-Mental State Examination (MMSE) was used to assess cognitive function. Nonlinear associations between triglyceride levels and cognitive function were assessed using smooth curve fitting and threshold effect analysis. Results In this study, a total of 221 patients (mean ± SD: 70.64 ± 7.43 years) with AIS were consecutively recruited, among whom 144 (65.16%) were male. Among the 221 recruited patients, 102 (46.15%) had cognitive impairment. Triglyceride levels and cognitive impairment were found to have a nonlinear association after controlling for potential confounders, with an inflection point at 0.8 mmol/L. Below the inflection point, triglyceride levels were positively correlated with MMSE scores (β = 14.11, 95% confidence interval [CI] = 2.33-25.89, P = 0.020). However, above the inflection point, the correlation between MMSE score and triglyceride levels was not statistically significant (β = 1.04, 95% CI = -1.27 - 3.34, P = 0.380). Conclusion There is a nonlinear association between triglyceride levels and cognitive function after AIS in older adults. Triglyceride was positively connected with cognitive function when it was less than 0.8 mmol/L.

Abstract
Dyslipidemias are the most important coronary artery disease (CAD) risk factor. High total cholesterol and its principal subtypes: low-density lipoprotein (LDL) cholesterol and non-high-density lipoprotein (NHDL) cholesterol are the most important. Epidemiological and Mendelian randomization studies have confirmed role of raised triglycerides and lipoprotein(a). INTERHEART study reported a significant association of raised ApoB/ApoA1, total-, LDL-, and NHDL-cholesterol in South Asians. Prospective Urban Rural Epidemiology (PURE) study identified raised NHDL cholesterol as the most important risk factor. Regional and multisite epidemiological studies in India have reported increasing population levels of total-, LDL-, and NHDL cholesterol and triglycerides. India Heart Watch reported higher prevalence of total and LDL cholesterol in northern and western Indian cities. ICMR-INDIAB study reported regional variations in hypercholesterolemia (≥200 mg/dl) from 4.6 % to 50.3 %, with greater prevalence in northern states, Kerala, Goa, and West Bengal. Non-Communicable Disease Risk Factor Collaboration and Global Burden of Diseases Studies have reported increasing LDL- and NHDL-cholesterol in India. Studies among emigrant Indians in UK and USA have reported higher triglycerides in compared to Caucasians. Identification of regional variations and trends in dyslipidemias need more nationwide surveys. Prospective studies are needed to assess quantum of risk with CAD incidence.

Abstract
Background Prevention and control of non-communicable diseases (NCDs) are prioritized in both the Sustainable Development Goal and the Healthy China 2030 Initiatives. Efforts have been devoted to combating NCDs in China. This study examined changes in NCD trajectory. Methods We described and analyzed the trends in prevalence and control of major NCDs including obesity, hypertension, diabetes, and dyslipidemia and examined selected main behavioral risk factors in China by sex, age group, and residence using nationally representative CDC survey data. Data included were from the China Chronic Disease Risk Factor Surveillance (CCDRFS, 2013 and 2018) and China National Nutrition Survey (CNNS, 2002, 2010-2013, 2015, and 2020). Annual and relative changes in rates were used. Rural-urban ratio of related indicators was assessed. Findings NCD-attributed deaths increased from 80.0% in 2002 to 86.6% in 2012, and 88.5% in 2019, with cardiovascular diseases, cancer, chronic respiratory diseases, and diabetes accounted for 47.1%, 24.1%, 8.8%, and 2.5% of deaths in 2019, respectively. Prevalence of obesity (7.1%-16.4%), overweight/obesity (29.9%-50.7%), hypertension (18.8%-27.5%), diabetes (2.6%-11.9%), and dyslipidemia (18.6%-35.6%) all increased from 2002 to 2018. These rates increased faster in rural areas than in urban areas. Rates of awareness, treatment and control of hypertension and diabetes increased very slowly from 2012 to 2018. Most rates were between 30 and 40% with the lowest rate of 11% for hypertension control even in 2018. The rates were worse for rural residents compared to urban residents. Furthermore, many modifiable behavioral risk factors showed little improvement and some became worse over time, including smoking, excessive alcohol use, inadequate vegetable/fruit intake, excessive red meat intake, and physical inactivity. Interpretation NCD burden in China increased during 2002-2019 despite of the intervention efforts. To reach the global and national targets, China must strengthen its actions, especially in rural areas, including improvement of NCD screening and management and reduction of behavioral risk factors.

Abstract
AIMS Apolipoproteins have been reported to be involved in many cardiovascular diseases. The aim of our study was to investigate the prognostic value of apolipoprotein B (ApoB) to apolipoprotein A-I (ApoA-I) ratio (ApoB/ApoA-I) in patients with heart failure (HF). METHODS AND RESULTS We randomly assigned 2400 HF patients into the training cohort (n = 1400) and the validation cohort (n = 1000). Using a receiver operating characteristic curve, we identified the optimal cut-off value of the ApoB/ApoA-I in the training cohort as 0.69, which was further validated in the validation cohort. A propensity score matching (PSM) analysis was conducted to eliminate the imbalance in the baseline characteristics of the high and low ApoB/ApoA-I group. A total of 2242 HF patients were generated in the PSM cohort. We also validated our results with an independent cohort (n = 838). Univariate and multivariate analyses were conducted to explore the independent prognostic value of ApoB/ApoA-I in the training cohort (n = 1400), the validation cohort (n = 1000), the PSM cohort (n = 2242), and the independent cohort (n = 838). Patients with high ApoB/ApoA-I ratio had significantly poorer prognosis compared with those with low ApoB/ApoA-I ratio in the training cohort, the validation cohort, the PSM cohort, and the independent cohort (P < 0.05). Multivariate analysis indicated that the ApoB/ApoA-I was an independent prognostic factor for HF in the training cohort [hazard ratio (HR) = 1.637, 95% confidence interval (CI) = 1.201-2.231, P = 0.002], the validation cohort (HR = 1.54, 95% CI = 1.051-2.257, P = 0.027), the PSM cohort (HR = 1.645, 95% CI = 1.273-2.125, P < 0.001), and the independent cohort (HR = 1.987, 95% CI = 1.251-3.155, P = 0.004). CONCLUSIONS Serum ApoB/ApoA-I ratio is an independent predictor for the prognosis of HF patients.

Abstract
Cardiovascular diseases (CVD) are a major public health concern in the Caribbean. Cardiovascular care in the Caribbean revealed encouraging improvements but still less than expectations. This study aims to gain insight into CVD and identify gaps in cardiovascular care in the Caribbean compared to high-income countries. More specifically, this review reports on the epidemiology, CVD risk factors, management practices, and patient outcomes (quality of life (QOL) and mortality). A systematic review of peer-reviewed articles was conducted to assess the CVD of individuals in the Caribbean from 1959 to 2022.Using multiple search engines and keywords, a systematic review of relevant peer-reviewed CVD articles was conducted using the necessary inclusion and exclusion criteria. Relevant data of studies were classified by title, publication year, location, type and size of samples, and results. Further analysis grouped patients by epidemiological profile, CVD risk, management, and selected outcomes (quality of life and inpatient mortality). From the initial review of 1,553 articles, 36 were analyzed from Trinidad and Tobago (20), Barbados (4), Jamaica (7), along with the Bahamas (2), British Virgin Islands (1), Bonaire (1), and one article from a Caribbean study. The social environment of fast food, sedentary jobs, and stress determinants are postulated to be precursors for an increase in CV risks. CVD in the Caribbean reveals a high prevalence of CV risks, suboptimal care, poor compliance, and high inpatient mortality compared with high-income countries. Greater efforts are required to improve CVD care at all stages, including in the social environment.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES To investigate the prevalence, awareness, treatment and control of dyslipidaemia and its associated factors in eastern China. DESIGN Cross-sectional study. SETTING Data were collected from the 2017 Nanjing Chronic Disease and Risk Factor Surveillance. PARTICIPANTS This study included 60 283 participants aged ≥18 years. OUTCOME MEASURES Prevalence of dyslipidaemia was defined as self-reported history of dyslipidaemia and/or the use of lipid-lowering medication, and/or meeting at least one of the following during on-site investigation: total cholesterol ≥6.2 mmol/L, triglyceride ≥2.3 mmol/L, low-density lipoprotein cholesterol ≥4.1 mmol/L and high-density lipoprotein cholesterol <1.0 mmol/L. Dyslipidaemia awareness was defined as the proportion of patients with dyslipidaemia who explicitly indicate their awareness of having a diagnosis of dyslipidaemia. Treatment was based on medication use among individuals with dyslipidaemia. Control was defined as having dyslipidaemia, receiving treatment and achieving serum lipid control to the standard level. ANALYSIS Complex weighting was used to calculate weighted prevalence. A two-level logistic regression model determined the influencing factors for dyslipidaemia prevalence, awareness, treatment and control. RESULTS The crude prevalence rate of dyslipidaemia was 28.4% (17 093 of 60 283). Among 17 093 patients with dyslipidaemia, the crude rates of awareness, treatment and control were 40.0% (n=6830), 27.5% (n=4695) and 21.9% (n=3736), respectively. The corresponding weighted prevalence rates were 29.8%, 41.6%, 28.9% and 22.9%. Older age (OR 2.03, 95% CI 1.82 to 2.23), urban residence (1.24, 1.19 to 1.31), higher education level (1.31, 1.21 to 1.42), current smoking (1.22, 1.15 to 1.29), alcohol consumption (1.20, 1.14 to 1.26), obesity (2.13, 1.99 to 2.29), history of hypertension (1.64, 1.56 to 1.71) and diabetes (1.92, 1.80 to 2.04) were identified as independent risk factors for dyslipidaemia (all p<0.001). Participants who were older, female, living in urban areas, had higher education levels, did not smoke or drink alcohol, had central obesity, had hypertension or had diabetes were more likely to be aware of their dyslipidaemia conditions, receive treatment and achieve serum lipid control to a standard level than their comparators (all p<0.05). CONCLUSIONS The prevalence of dyslipidaemia is relatively high in eastern China; however, awareness, treatment and control levels are relatively low.

Bidirectional relationship between nonalcoholic fatty liver disease and serum creatinine-to-body weight ratio as a proxy for skeletal muscle mass index. J Gastroenterol Hepatol 2023; 38:2061-2069. [PMID: 37642537 DOI: 10.1111/jgh.16333] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/26/2023] [Revised: 06/17/2023] [Accepted: 08/02/2023] [Indexed: 08/31/2023]
Abstract
BACKGROUND AND AIM Although an association between skeletal muscle mass index and nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) has previously been demonstrated, the causal direction remains unclear. Herein, we investigated the directional association between NAFLD and the serum creatinine-to-body weight ratio (sCr/bw), a surrogate marker of the muscle mass index, using longitudinal data. METHODS We recruited 9662 participants in 2017 and performed follow-up over 4 years. We evaluated whether sCr/bw was related to NAFLD development (Analysis I) and whether NAFLD was associated with a low sCr/bw incidence (Analysis II) using logistic regression models. Furthermore, a random intercept cross-lagged panel model was applied to evaluate the bidirectional association between sCr/bw ratio and NAFLD (Analysis III). RESULTS Analysis I demonstrated an association between sCr/bw and incident NAFLD (odds ratio [OR] = 0.160, 95% confidence interval [CI]:0.107-0.232). Analysis II indicated a relationship between NAFLD and subsequent low sCr/bw ratio (OR = 1.524, 95% CI: 1.258-1.846). Analysis III indicated that the standard regression coefficient from sCr/bw to subsequent hepatic steatosis (HS) was -0.053 for βsCr/bw2017 → HS2019 and -0.060 for βsCr/bw2019 → HS2021 and the coefficient from HS to subsequent sCr/bw was -0.093 for βHS2017 → sCr/bw2019 and -0.112 for βHS2019 → sCr/bw2021 (all P < 0.05). CONCLUSIONS This study indicated mutual causality between sCr/bw and NAFLD. Considering that sCr/bw is a surrogate marker of muscle mass index, the findings emphasize that NAFLD and low muscle mass form a vicious cycle, which should be taken seriously in clinical practice.

Abstract
Cadmium (Cd) exposure has been associated with the development of enterohepatic circulation disorders and hyperuricemia, but the possible contribution of chronic low-dose Cd exposure to disease progression is still need to be explored. A mouse model of wild-type mice (WT) and Uox-knockout mice (Uox-KO) to find out the toxic effects of chronic low-dose Cd exposure on liver purine metabolism by liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry (LC-MS) platform and associated intestinal flora. High throughput omics analysis including metabolomics and transcriptomics showed that Cd exposure can cause disruption of purine metabolism and energy metabolism. Cd changes several metabolites associated with purine metabolism (xanthine, hypoxanthine, adenosine, uridine, inosine) and related genes, which are associated with elevated urate levels. Microbiome analysis showed that Cd exposure altered the disturbance of homeostasis in the gut. Uox-KO mice were more susceptible to Cd than WT mice. Our findings extend the understanding of potential toxicological interactions between liver and gut microbiota and shed light on the progression of metabolic diseases caused by Cd exposure.

Association between Intermediate-Density Lipoprotein Particles and the Progression of Carotid Atherosclerosis: A Community-Based Cohort Study. J Atheroscler Thromb 2023; 30:1644-1660. [PMID: 37045783 PMCID: PMC10627743 DOI: 10.5551/jat.63937] [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: 09/12/2022] [Accepted: 02/27/2023] [Indexed: 04/14/2023] Open
Abstract
AIM Experimental studies report that intermediate-density lipoprotein (IDL), the precursor of low-density lipoprotein, promotes atherosclerotic plaque formation. However, whether IDL is involved in the development of atherosclerosis in humans is still unclear. The aim of this community-based study is to examine the association between IDL particle (IDL-P) concentrations and the 5-year progression of carotid atherosclerosis. METHODS Baseline IDL-P concentrations were measured using nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy in 927 participants aged 45-74 years with no history of cardiovascular disease (CVD) at baseline. To estimate the association between baseline IDL-P concentrations and 5-year progression of carotid atherosclerosis, indicated by atherosclerotic plaque progression and changes in total plaque area (TPA), multivariable-adjusted regression was employed. RESULTS During the 5-year follow-up period, 45.8% of participants developed new plaques. Baseline IDL-P concentrations were significantly associated with the progression of carotid atherosclerosis. Participants in the highest quartile of IDL-P concentrations exhibited 1.36-fold (95% confidence interval [CI]: 1.09-1.68) increased progression of carotid plaque and 1.67-fold (95% CI: 1.04-2.69) higher TPA than those in the lowest quartile. These relationships were independent of baseline concentrations of low-density lipoprotein particles and very-low-density lipoprotein particles and their subclasses. CONCLUSIONS Elevated IDL-P concentrations were independently associated with the progression of carotid atherosclerosis, suggesting that IDL-P is a novel risk factor for the development of atherosclerosis.

Abstract
We aimed to investigate the sex-related differences in the clinical course of patients with Atrial Fibrillation (AF) enrolled in the Asia-Pacific-Heart-Rhythm-Society Registry. Logistic regression was utilized to investigate the relationship between sex and oral anticoagulant, rhythm control strategies and the 1-year chance to maintain sinus rhythm. Cox-regression was utilized to assess the 1-year risk of all-cause, and cardiovascular death, thromboembolic events, acute coronary syndrome, heart failure, and major bleeding. In the whole cohort (4121 patients, 69 ± 12 years,34.3% female), females had different cardiovascular risk factors, clinical manifestations, and disease perceptions than men, with more advanced age (72 ± 11 vs 67 ± 12 years, p < 0.001) and dyslipidemia (36.7% vs 41.7%, p = 0.002). Coronary artery disease was more prevalent in males (21.1% vs 16.1%, p < 0.001) as well as the use of antiplatelet drugs. Females had a higher use of oral anticoagulant (84.9% vs 81.3%, p = 0.004) but this difference was non-significant after adjustment for confounders. On multivariable analyses, females were less often treated with rhythm control strategies (Odds Ratio [OR] 0.44,95% Confidence Interval [CI] 0.38-0.51) and were less likely to maintain sinus rhythm (OR 0.27, 95% CI 0.22-0.34) compared to males. Cox-regressions analysis showed no sex-related differences for the risk of death, cardiovascular, and bleeding. The clinical management of Asian AF patients should consider several sex-related differences.

[PMID: 37341657 PMCID: PMC10586832 DOI: 10.1097/cm9.0000000000002741] [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: 10/06/2022] [Indexed: 06/22/2023] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND Understanding the changing profiles of cardiovascular disease (CVD) and modifiable risk factors is essential for CVD prevention and control. We aimed to report the comprehensive trends in CVD and risk factors in China from 1990 to 2019. METHODS Data on the incidence, death, and disability-adjusted life years (DALYs) of total CVD and its 11 subtypes for China were obtained from the Global Burden of Disease Study 2019. The CVD burden attributable to 12 risk factors was also retrieved. A secondary analysis was conducted to summarize the leading causes of CVD burden and attributable risk factors. RESULTS From 1990 to 2019, the number of CVD incidence, death, and DALYs considerably increased by 132.8%, 89.1%, and 52.6%, respectively. Stroke, ischemic heart disease, and hypertensive heart disease accounted for over 95.0% of CVD deaths in 2019 and remained the top three causes during the past 30 years. Between 1990 and 2019, the age-standardized rate of stroke decreased significantly (percentage of decreased incidence: -9.3%; death: -39.8%; DALYs: -41.6%), while the rate of ischemic heart disease increased (percentage of increased incidence: 11.5%; death: 17.6%; DALYs: 2.2%). High systolic blood pressure, unhealthy diet, tobacco, and air pollution continued to be the major contributors to CVD deaths and DALYs (attributing to over 70% of the CVD burden), and the high body mass index (BMI)-associated CVD burden had the largest increase between 1990 and 2019. CONCLUSIONS The significant increases in the number of CVD incident cases, deaths, and DALYs suggest that the CVD burden is still a concern. Intensified strategies and policies are needed to maintain promising progress in stroke and to reduce the escalating burden of ischemic heart disease. The CVD burden attributable to risk factors has not yet made adequate achievements; even worse, high BMI has contributed to the increasing CVD burden.

Bifidobacterium animalis subspecies lactis HN019 can reduce the sequelae of experimental periodontitis in rats modulating intestinal parameters, expression of lipogenic genes, and levels of hepatic steatosis. J Periodontal Res 2023; 58:1006-1019. [PMID: 37482954 DOI: 10.1111/jre.13163] [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: 12/09/2022] [Revised: 05/15/2023] [Accepted: 07/07/2023] [Indexed: 07/25/2023]
Abstract
OBJECTIVE To determine whether Bifidobacterium animalis subspecies lactis HN019 (B. lactis HN019) can reduce the sequelae of experimental periodontitis (EP) in rats modulating systemic parameters. BACKGROUND This study evaluated the effects of probiotic therapy (PROB) in the prevention of local and systemic damage resulting from EP. METHODS Forty-eight rats were allocated into four groups: C (control), PROB, EP, and EP-PROB. PROB (1 × 1010 CFU/mL) administration lasted 8 weeks and PE was induced on the 7th week by placing ligature on the animals' lower first molars. All animals were euthanized in the 9th week of the experiment. Biomolecular analyses, RT-PCR, and histomorphometric analyses were performed. The data obtained were analyzed statistically (ANOVA, Tukey, p < .05). RESULTS The EP group had higher dyslipidemia when compared to the C group, as well as higher levels of insulin resistance, proteinuria levels, percentages of systolic blood pressure, percentage of fatty hepatocytes in the liver, and expression of adipokines was up-regulated (LEPR, NAMPT, and FABP4). All these parameters (except insulin resistance, systolic blood pressure, LEPR and FABP4 gene expression) were reduced in the EP-PROB group when compared to the EP group. The EP group had lower villus height and crypt depth, as well as a greater reduction in Bacteroidetes and a greater increase in Firmicutes when compared to the EP-PROB group. Greater alveolar bone loss was observed in the EP group when compared to the EP-PROB group. CONCLUSION Bifidobacterium lactis HN019 can reduce the sequelae of EP in rats modulating intestinal parameters, attenuating expression of lipogenic genes and hepatic steatosis.

Abstract
Atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease (ASCVD) is the leading cause of death among urban and rural residents in China, and elevated low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C) is a risk factor for ASCVD. Considering the increasing burden of ASCVD, lipid management is of the utmost importance. In recent years, research on blood lipids has made breakthroughs around the world, hence a revision of China guidelines for lipid management is imperative, especially since the target lipid levels in the general population vary in respect to the risk of ASCVD. The level of LDL-C, which can be regarded as appropriate in a population without frisk factors, can be considered abnormal in people at high risk of developing ASCVD. As a result, the "Guidelines for the prevention and treatment of dyslipidemia" were adapted into the "China Guidelines for Lipid Management" (henceforth referred to as the new guidelines) by an Experts' committee after careful deliberation. The new guidelines still recommend LDL-C as the primary target for lipid control, with CVD risk stratification to determine its target value. These guidelines recommend that moderate intensity statin therapy in adjunct with a heart-healthy lifestyle, be used as an initial line of treatment, followed by cholesterol absorption inhibitors or/and proprotein convertase subtilisin/kexin type 9 (PCSK9) inhibitors, as necessary. The new guidelines provide guidance for lipid management across various age groups, from children to the elderly. The aim of these guidelines is to comprehensively improve the management of lipids and promote the prevention and treatment of ASCVD by guiding clinical practice.

Longitudinal analysis of immune reconstitution and metabolic changes in women living with HIV: A real-world observational study. Chin Med J (Engl) 2023; 136:2168-2177. [PMID: 37580056 PMCID: PMC10508409 DOI: 10.1097/cm9.0000000000002756] [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: 12/08/2022] [Indexed: 08/16/2023] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND Women comprise more than half of people living with human immunodeficiency virus/acquired immune deficiency syndrome (HIV/AIDS) worldwide and incomplete immune recovery and metabolic abnormalities affect them deeply. Studies of HIV antiretroviral therapy (ART) have a low female representation in China. We aimed to investigate immune reconstitution and metabolic changes of female HIV-positive cohort in China longitudinally. METHODS HIV-positive women who initiated ART from January 2005 to June 2021 and were followed up regularly at least once a year were included in this study. Immunological indicators (cluster of differentiation 4 [CD4] counts and CD8 counts), viral load (VL), and metabolic indicators were collected at follow-up. All data were collected from the China Disease Prevention and Control Information System (CDPCIS). VL was tested half a year, 1 year after receiving ART, and every other year subsequently according to local policy. CD4/CD8 ratio normalization was considered as the primary outcome and defined as a value ≥1. Incidence rate and probability of CD4/CD8 ratio normalization were estimated through per 100 person-years follow-up (PYFU) and Kaplan-Meier curve, respectively. Multivariate Cox regression was used to identify independent risk factors associated with CD4/CD8 ratio normalization. We further studied the rate of dyslipidemia, hyperuricemia, diabetes, liver injury, and renal injury after ART initiation with the chi-squared tests or Fisher's exact probability tests, and a generalized estimating equation model was used to analyze factors of dyslipidemia and hyperuricemia. RESULTS A total of 494 female patients with HIV/AIDS started ART within 16 years from January 2005 to June 2021, out of which 301 women were enrolled with a median duration of ART for 4.1 years (interquartile range, 2.3-7.0 years). The overall incidence rate of CD4/CD8 ratio normalization was 8.9 (95% confidence interval [CI], 7.4-10.6) per 100 PYFU, and probabilities of CD4/CD8 normalization after initiating ART at 1 year, 2 years, 5 years, and 10 years follow-up were 11.7%, 23.2%, 44.0%, and 59.0%, respectively. Independent risk factors associated with CD4/CD8 normalization were baseline CD4 cell counts <200 cells/μL, CD8 counts >1000 cells/μL, and more than 6 months from the start of combined ART (cART) to first virological suppression. Longitudinally, the rate of hypercholesterolemia (total cholesterol [TC]) and high triglyceride (TG) showed an increasing trend, while the rate of low high-density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL) showed a decreasing trend. The rate of hyperuricemia presented a downtrend at follow-up. Although liver and renal injury and diabetes persisted during ART, the rate was not statistically significant. Older age and protease inhibitors were independent risk factors for increase of TC and TG, and ART duration was an independent factor for elevation of TC and recovery of HDL-C. CONCLUSIONS This study showed that women were more likely to normalize CD4/CD8 ratio in comparison with findings reported in the literature even though immune reconstruction was incomplete.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Remnant cholesterol (RC) was associated with carotid atherosclerosis in patients with clinical settings. But the value of RC as a risk management indicator for subclinical carotid atherosclerosis in health examination has not been fully determined. METHODS This was a real-world, cross-sectional study including 12317 Chinese general population. Carotid intima-media thickness (CIMT) and carotid atherosclerotic plaque (CAP) were assessed by ultrasound. RC was calculated by total cholesterol minus low density lipoprotein-cholesterol (LDL-C) minus high density lipoprotein-cholesterol (HDL-C).Carotid atherosclerosis (CAS) was defined as a composite of increased CIMT and CAP. Multivariable logistic regression models were used to investigate the association of RC and CAS, increased CIMT and CAP. RESULTS Among 12317 participants (mean age: 51.21±13.76 years; 8303 men and 4014 women), the prevalence of CAS and increased CIMT was higher in participants with higher RC levels (P for trend<0.01). After multivariable adjustment, the highest quartile of RC was significantly associated with higher risk of CAS (OR: 1.45 95%CI: 1.26-1.67) and increased CIMT (OR: 1.48 95%CI: 1.29-1.71) with the lowest quartile of RC as reference. And the relationships remained significant even after adjustment of LDL-C and HDL-C. Every 1-SD increase of RC level was positively associated with 17% risk increment for CAS (6-30%) and 20% risk increment for increased CIMT (8-34%). CONCLUSION Elevated serum RC levels were significantly associated with CAS and increased CIMT among Chinese general population, independent of LDL-C and HDL-C. RC evaluation could be applied for the risk management of early stage of subclinical carotid atherosclerosis in health examination.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Diabetes is the most common metabolic disorder that leads to various complications, and among these complications, disruption in the lipid profile and serum uric acid (SUA) is one of the significant cases that can lead to the deterioration of the health status of patients with diabetes. So, we aimed to evaluate the level of SUA and lipid profiles in patients with diabetes. A total of 230 patients with diabetes who were admitted to Razi Hospital, Rasht, Iran, were enrolled in this study. Demographical data and clinical characteristics of the patients include gender, body mass index (BMI), duration of diabetes, history of smoking, FBS, HbA1c, SUA, Creatinine (Cr), Cholesterol (Chol), low-density lipoprotein (LDL), high-density lipoprotein (HDL), triglycerides (TG), retinopathy, hypertension, ischemic heart disease (IHD), and microalbuminuria were recorded. All data were analyzed using the SPSS version 21 by a significant level < 0.05. RESULT According to our results, 70 were male, and 160 were female, with a mean age of 57.36 ± 8.05 years and a mean BMI of 28.10 ± 4.62. The most frequent comorbidities were hypertension, 67%. The serum level of FBS, HBA1c, SUA, Cr, Chol, LDL, HDL, and TG were 191.47 ± 71.66 mg/dL, 7.94 ± 1.21 mg/dL, 5.65 ± 1.95 mg/dL, 0.94 ± 0.16 mg/dL, 167.28 ± 45.22 mg/dL, 95.91 ± 37.03 mg/dL, 39.78 ± 10.44 mg/dL, and 186.75 ± 76.65 mg/dL, respectively. Only UA had a significant relationship with TG level (P < 0.05).

Abstract
Since 2015, stroke has become the leading cause of death and disability in China, posing a significant threat to the health of its citizens as a major chronic non-communicable disease. According to the China Stroke High-risk Population Screening and Intervention Program, an estimated 17.8 million [95% confidence interval (CI) 17.6-18.0 million] adults in China had experienced a stroke in 2020, with 3.4 million (95% CI 3.3-3.5 million) experiencing their first-ever stroke and another 2.3 million (95% CI 2.2-2.4 million) dying as a result. Additionally, approximately 12.5% (95% CI 12.4-12.5%) of stroke survivors were left disabled, as defined by a modified Rankin Scale score greater than 1, equating to 2.2 million (95% CI 2.1-2.2 million) stroke-related disabilities in 2020. As the population ages and the prevalence of risk factors like diabetes, hypertension, and hyperlipidemia continues to rise and remains poorly controlled, the burden of stroke in China is also increasing. A large national epidemiological survey initiated by the China Hypertension League in 2017 showed that the prevalence of hypertension was 24.7%; the awareness, treatment, and control rates in hypertensive patients were: 60.1%, 42.5%, and 25.4%, respectively. A nationally representative sample of the Chinese mainland population showed that the weighted prevalence of total diabetes diagnosed by the American Diabetes Association criteria was 12.8%, suggesting there are 120 million adults with diabetes in China, and the awareness, treatment, and control rates in diabetic patients were: 43.3%, 49.0%, and 49.4%, respectively. The "Sixth National Health Service Statistical Survey Report in 2018" showed that the proportion of the obese population in China was 37.4%, an increase of 7.2 points from 2013. Data from 1599 hospitals in the Hospital Quality Monitoring System and Bigdata Observatory Platform for Stroke of China (BOSC) showed that a total of 3,418,432 stroke cases [mean age ± standard error (SE) was (65.700 ± 0.006) years, and 59.1% were male] were admitted during 2020. Of those, over 80% (81.9%) were ischemic stroke (IS), 14.9% were intracerebral hemorrhage (ICH) strokes, and 3.1% were subarachnoid hemorrhage (SAH) strokes. The mean ± SE of hospitalization expenditures was Chinese Yuan (CNY) (16,975.6 ± 16.3), ranging from (13,310.1 ± 12.8) in IS to (81,369.8 ± 260.7) in SAH, and out-of-pocket expenses were (5788.9 ± 8.6), ranging from (4449.0 ± 6.6) in IS to (30,778.2 ± 156.8) in SAH. It was estimated that the medical cost of hospitalization for stroke in 2020 was CNY 58.0 billion, of which the patient pays approximately CNY 19.8 billion. In-hospital death/discharge against medical advice rate was 9.2% (95% CI 9.2-9.2%), ranging from 6.4% (95% CI 6.4-6.5%) for IS to 21.8% for ICH (95% CI 21.8-21.9%). From 2019 to 2020, the information about 188,648 patients with acute IS receiving intravenous thrombolytic therapy (IVT), 49,845 patients receiving mechanical thrombectomy (MT), and 14,087 patients receiving bridging (IVT + MT) were collected through BOSC. The incidence of intracranial hemorrhage during treatment was 3.2% (95% CI 3.2-3.3%), 7.7% (95% CI 7.5-8.0%), and 12.9% (95% CI 12.3-13.4%), respectively. And in-hospital death/discharge against medical advice rate was 8.9% (95% CI 8.8-9.0%), 16.5% (95% CI 16.2-16.9%), and 16.8% (95% CI 16.2-17.4%), respectively. A prospective nationwide hospital-based study was conducted at 231 stroke base hospitals (Level III) from 31 provinces in China through BOSC from January 2019 to December 2020 and 136,282 stroke patients were included and finished 12-month follow-up. Of those, over 86.9% were IS, 10.8% were ICH strokes, and 2.3% were SAH strokes. The disability rate [% (95% CI)] in survivors of stroke at 3-month and 12-month was 14.8% (95% CI 14.6-15.0%) and 14.0% (95% CI 13.8-14.2%), respectively. The mortality rate [% (95% CI)] of stroke at 3-month and 12-month was 4.2% (95% CI 4.1-4.3%) and 8.5% (95% CI 8.4-8.6%), respectively. The recurrence rate [% (95% CI)] of stroke at 3-month and 12-month was 3.6% (95% CI 3.5-3.7%) and 5.6% (95% CI 5.4-5.7%), respectively. The Healthy China 2030 Stroke Action Plan was launched as part of this review, and the above data provide valuable guidelines for future stroke prevention and treatment efforts in China.

Prevalence, awareness, treatment, and risk factor control of high atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease risk in Guangzhou, China. Front Cardiovasc Med 2023; 10:1092058. [PMID: 37522083 PMCID: PMC10379630 DOI: 10.3389/fcvm.2023.1092058] [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: 11/11/2022] [Accepted: 06/23/2023] [Indexed: 08/01/2023] Open
Abstract
Background Identifying individuals at high risk of atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease (ASCVD) and implementing targeted prevention strategies might be the key to reducing the heavy disease burden in China. This study aimed to evaluate the prevalence, awareness, treatment, and risk factor control among individuals with high 10-year ASCVD risk in Guangzhou, China. Methods This study included 15,165 adults (aged 18 years and older) from 138 urban and rural communities in the 2018 survey of China Chronic Disease and Risk Factors Surveillance in Guangzhou. 10-year ASCVD risk was estimated using the risk assessment models recommended in the Chinese Guideline for the Prevention of Cardiovascular Disease 2017. The prevalence, awareness, treatment, and risk factor control of high ASCVD risk (defined as 10-year risk ≥10%) were examined. Results Among the study population, the weighted proportion of men was 51.9%, and the mean age was 41.27 ± 0.52 years. The overall standardized prevalence of high 10-year ASCVD risk was 13.8% (95% CI, 12.4%-15.3%). The awareness rates for hypertension, diabetes, and hyperlipidemia were 48.0% (95% CI, 42.8%-53.4%), 48.3% (95% CI, 43.0%-53.7%), and 17.9% (95% CI, 14.4%-22.1%) among those with corresponding risk factors. The proportions of drug use in prevention were relatively low in primary prevention, with the rates of using BP-lowering, glucose-lowering, lipid-lowering, and aspirin being 37.7% (95% CI, 32.8%-42.8%), 41.4% (95% CI, 35.8%-47.3%), 6.7% (95% CI, 4.5%-10.0%), and 1.0% (95% CI, 0.6%-1.8%), respectively. As for risk factor control, only 29.3% (95% CI, 25.7%-33.2%), 16.8% (95% CI, 15.0%-18.6%), and 36.0% (95% CI, 31.1%-41.2%) of individuals with high ASCVD risk had ideal levels of blood pressure, LDL-C, and body weight. Conclusion The estimated prevalence of 10-year high ASCVD risk was high in Guangzhou, while the rates of treatment and risk factor control in primary prevention were still far from optimal, especially for lipid management. These findings suggested that substantial improvement in ASCVD prevention is needed in this population.

The impact of dyslipidemia on lumbar intervertebral disc degeneration and vertebral endplate modic changes: a cross-sectional study of 1035 citizens in China. BMC Public Health 2023; 23:1302. [PMID: 37415123 PMCID: PMC10326938 DOI: 10.1186/s12889-023-16224-3] [Citation(s) in RCA: 2] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/06/2023] [Accepted: 06/30/2023] [Indexed: 07/08/2023] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND Intervertebral disc degeneration (IDD) and vertebral endplate Modic changes (MCs) are common lumbar degenerative phenotypes related to low back pain (LBP). Dyslipidemia has been linked to LBP but its associations with IDD and MCs have not been fully elucidated. The present study aimed to address the possible link between dyslipidemia, IDD and MCs in the Chinese population. METHODS 1035 citizens were enrolled in the study. The levels of serum total cholesterol (TC), low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C), high-density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL-C) and triglycerides (TG) were collected. IDD was evaluated based on the Pfirrmann grading system and subjects with an average grade ≥ 3 were defined as having degeneration. MCs were classified into typical types 1, 2 and 3. Covariables, including age, sex, BMI and fasting plasma glucose, were included for the adjustment of the logistic analyses. RESULTS The degeneration group included 446 subjects while the nondegeneration group included 589 subjects. The degeneration group had significant higher levels of TC and LDL-C (p < 0.001) whereas TG and HDL-C were not significantly different between the two groups. TC and LDL-C concentrations were significantly positively correlated with average IDD grades (p < 0.001). Multivariate logistic regression revealed that high TC (≥ 6.2 mmol/L, adjusted OR = 1.775, 95% CI = 1.209-2.606) and high LDL-C (≥ 4.1 mmol/L, adjusted OR = 1.818, 95% CI = 1.123-2.943) were independent risk factors for IDD. Type 1 MC presented in 84 (8.12%) subjects, type 2 MC presented in 244 (23.57%) subjects, type 3 MC presented in 27 (2.61%) subjects and no MC was observed in the remaining 680 (65.70%) subjects. The type 2 MC group demonstrated a higher level of TC, but the association between serum lipids and MCs could not be confirmed in further multivariate logistic regression. CONCLUSIONS High TC (≥ 6.2 mmol/L) and LDL-C (≥ 4.1 mmol/L) concentrations were independent risk factors for IDD for citizens in China. However, the association between dyslipidemia and MCs could not be determined. The effect of excess serum cholesterol may be critical for IDD and cholesterol lowering treatment may provide new opportunities in the management of lumbar disc degeneration.

HMGCR gene polymorphism is associated with residual cholesterol risk in premature triple-vessel disease patients treated with moderate-intensity statins. BMC Cardiovasc Disord 2023; 23:317. [PMID: 37355634 PMCID: PMC10290797 DOI: 10.1186/s12872-023-03285-w] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/16/2022] [Accepted: 05/08/2023] [Indexed: 06/26/2023] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND To investigate the association of HMGCR and NPC1L1 gene polymorphisms with residual cholesterol risk (RCR) in patients with premature triple-vessel disease (PTVD). METHODS Three SNPs within HMGCR including rs12916, rs2303151, and rs4629571, and four SNPs within NPC1L1 including rs11763759, rs4720470, rs2072183, and rs2073547 were genotyped. RCR was defined as achieved low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C) concentrations after statins higher than 1.8 mmol/L (70 mg/dL). RESULTS Finally, a total of 609 PTVD patients treated with moderate-intensity statins were included who were divided into two groups: non-RCR group (n = 88) and RCR group (n = 521) according to LDL-C concentrations. Multivariate logistic regression showed the homozygotes for the minor allele of rs12916 within HMGCR gene (CC) were associated with a 2.08 times higher risk of RCR in recessive model [odds ratio (OR): 2.08, 95% confidence interval (CI): 1.16-3.75]. In codominant model, the individuals homozygous for the minor allele of rs12916 (CC) were associated with a 2.26 times higher risk of RCR (OR: 2.26, 95% CI: 1.16-4.43) while the heterozygous individuals (CT) were not, compared with the individuals homozygous for the major allele of rs12916 (TT). There was no significant association between the SNPs within NPC1L1 gene and RCR in various models. CONCLUSIONS We first reported that the variant homozygous CC of rs12916 within HMGCR gene may incur a significantly higher risk of RCR in PTVD patients treated with statins, providing new insights into early individualized guidance of precise lipid-lowering treatment.

Icosapent ethyl therapy for very high triglyceride levels: a 12-week, multi-center, placebo-controlled, randomized, double-blinded, phase III clinical trial in China. Lipids Health Dis 2023; 22:71. [PMID: 37301827 DOI: 10.1186/s12944-023-01838-8] [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: 01/06/2023] [Accepted: 05/29/2023] [Indexed: 06/12/2023] Open
Abstract
OBJECTIVES Eicosapentaenoic acid in its ethyl ester form is the single active component of icosapent ethyl (IPE). This study was a phase III, multi-center trial assessing the safety and efficiency of IPE for treating very high triglyceride (TG) in a Chinese cohort. METHODS Patients having TG levels (5.6-22.6 mmol/L) were enrolled and randomly assigned to receive a treatment of oral intake of 4 g or 2 g/day of IPE, or placebo. Before and after 12 weeks of treatment, TG levels were assessed and the median was calculated to determine the change between the baseline and week 12. In addition to examining TG levels, the impact of such treatments on other lipid changes was also investigated. The official Drug Clinical Trial Information Management Platform has registered this study (CTR20170362). RESULTS Random assignments were performed on 373 patients (mean age 48.9 years; 75.1% male). IPE (4 g/day) lowered TG levels by an average of 28.4% from baseline and by an average of 19.9% after correction for placebo (95% CI: 29.8%-10.0%, P < 0.001). In addition, plasma concentration of non-high-density lipoprotein cholesterol (non-HDL-C), very low-density lipoprotein (VLDL) cholesterol, and VLDL-TG remarkedly reduced after IPE (4 g/day) treatment by a median of 14.6%, 27.9%, and 25.2%, respectively compared with participants in placebo group. Compared to the placebo, neither 4 nor 2 g of IPE daily elevated LDL-C levels with statistical significance. IPE was well tolerated by all the treatment groups. CONCLUSIONS IPE at 4 g/day dramatically lowered other atherogenic lipids without a noticeable increase in LDL-C, thereby decreasing TG levels in an exceptionally high-TG Chinese population.

Dyslipidemia in diffuse large B-cell lymphoma based on the genetic subtypes: a single-center study of 259 Chinese patients. Front Oncol 2023; 13:1172623. [PMID: 37384286 PMCID: PMC10299728 DOI: 10.3389/fonc.2023.1172623] [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: 02/23/2023] [Accepted: 05/23/2023] [Indexed: 06/30/2023] Open
Abstract
Background Diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL) is a kind of highly heterogeneous non-Hodgkin lymphoma, both in clinical and genetic terms. DLBCL is admittedly categorized into six subtypes by genetics, which contain MCD, BN2, EZB, N1, ST2, and A53. Dyslipidemia is relevant to a multitude of solid tumors and has recently been reported to be associated with hematologic malignancies. We aim to present a retrospective study investigating dyslipidemia in DLBCL based on the molecular subtypes. Results This study concluded that 259 patients with newly diagnosed DLBCL and their biopsy specimens were available for molecular typing. Results show that the incidence of dyslipidemia (87.0%, p <0.001) is higher in the EZB subtype than in others, especially hypertriglyceridemia (78.3%, p = 0.001) in the EZB subtype. Based on the pathological gene-sequencing, patients with BCL2 gene fusion mutation are significantly correlative with hyperlipidemia (76.5%, p = 0.006) and hypertriglyceridemia (88.2%, p = 0.002). Nevertheless, the occurrence of dyslipidemia has no remarkable influence on prognosis. Conclusion In summary, dyslipidemia correlates with genetic heterogeneity in DLBCL without having a significant influence on survival. This research first connects lipids and genetic subtypes in DLBCL.

Abstract
Probiotics are prospective for the prevention and treatment of cardiovascular diseases. Until now, systematic studies on the amelioration of hypercholesterolemia have been rare in terms of (cholesterol metabolism and transportation, reshaping of gut microbiota, as well as yielding SCFAs) intervention with lactic acid bacteria (LAB). In this study, strains of Lactiplantibacillus plantarum, WLPL21, WLPL72, and ZDY04, from fermented food and two combinations (Enterococcus faecium WEFA23 with L. plantarum WLPL21 and WLPL72) were compared for their effect on hypercholesterolemia. Comprehensively, with regard to the above aspects, L. plantarum WLPL21 showed the best mitigatory effect among all groups, which was revealed by decreasing total cholesterol (TC) and low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C) levels, upregulated cholesterol metabolism (Cyp27a1, Cyp7b1, Cyp7a1, and Cyp8b1) levels in the liver, cholesterol transportation (Abca1, Abcg5, and Abcg8) in the ileum or liver, and downregulated Npc1l1. Moreover, it reshaped the constitution of gut microbiota; specifically, the ratio of Firmicutes to Bacteroidetes (F/B) was downregulated; the relative abundance of Allobaculum, Blautia, and Lactobacillus was upregulated by 7.48-14.82-fold; and that of Lachnoclostridium and Desulfovibrio was then downregulated by 69.95% and 60.66%, respectively. In conclusion, L. plantarum WLPL21 improved cholesterol metabolism and transportation, as well as the abundance of gut microbiota, for alleviating high-cholesterol-diet-induced hypercholesterolemia.

Chen S, Zhang M, Duan L, Chen M, Du Y, Cao Y, Huang Z, Zhao J, Duan Y. Dose-response relationship of elements with blood lipids and the potential interaction: A cross-sectional study from four areas with different pollution levels in China. J Trace Elem Med Biol 2023; 79:127206. [PMID: 37224743 DOI: 10.1016/j.jtemb.2023.127206] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/07/2021] [Revised: 04/28/2023] [Accepted: 05/15/2023] [Indexed: 05/26/2023]
Abstract
BACKGROUND A growing number of researches indicated the association between plasma trace elements and blood lipids. However, the potential interaction and dose-response relationship were less frequently reported. METHODS In this study, a total of 3548 participants were recruited from four counties in Hunan Province, South China. Demographic characteristics were collected by face-to-face interviews and inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometry (ICPMS) was used to determine the levels of 23 trace elements in plasma. We applied a fully adjusted generalized linear regression model (GLM) and a multivariate restricted cubic spline (RCS) to estimate the correlation, dose-response relationship and possible interaction between 23 trace elements and four blood lipid markers. RESULTS The results indicated positive dose-response relationships of plasma 66zinc with triglycerides (TG) and low density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C), plasma 78selenium with LDL-C and total cholesterol (TCH), and plasma 59cobalt with high-density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL-C). There was a negative dose-response relationship between 59cobalt and LDL-C. Further analysis found that 66zinc and 59cobalt had an antagonistic effect on the risk of increased LDL-C level. CONCLUSIONS This study added new evidence for the potential adverse effects of 66Zn and 78Se on blood lipids, and provided new insight into the threshold value setting for metals as well as the intervention strategy for dyslipidemia.

The clinical effects of inclisiran, a first-in-class LDL-C lowering siRNA therapy, on the LDL-C levels in Chinese patients with hypercholesterolemia. J Clin Lipidol 2023; 17:392-400. [PMID: 37164838 DOI: 10.1016/j.jacl.2023.04.010] [Citation(s) in RCA: 6] [Impact Index Per Article: 6.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/27/2023] [Revised: 04/20/2023] [Accepted: 04/24/2023] [Indexed: 05/12/2023]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Inclisiran is a novel siRNA therapy that inhibits the synthesis of proprotein convertase subtilisin-kexin type 9 (PCSK9) by targeting the PCSK9 mRNA, consequently, decreases low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C). OBJECTIVE To assess the safety, PK and LDL-C lowering effects of inclisiran in the Chinese patients with elevated LDL-C despite treatment with maximally tolerated LDL-C lowering therapies. METHODS Forty Chinese patients with hypercholesterolemia (LDL-C ≥100 mg/dL) who were on maximally tolerated statin were randomized to receive a single dose of either inclisiran sodium 100 or 300mg s.c. injection (each for 15 patients) or placebo (10 patients). Safety, pharmacokinetics and pharmacodynamics (i.e., PCSK9 and LDL-C levels) were evaluated for up to 90 days after the s.c. injection of study drug. RESULTS Following single subcutaneous injections inclisiran sodium at 100 mg or 300 mg, inclisiran has a relative short elimination half-life (T1/2, 6.5 hours). Both plasma PCSK9 and serum LDL-C decreased rapidly and consistently, with the maximal reduction between Day 30 and Day 60; then the decreases of PCSK9 and LDL-C were generally maintained up to 56.4% and 49.6% of 100 mg, 74.9% and 58.3% of 300 mg, respectively, at day 90. All adverse events were mild or moderate in severity, and no discontinuations due to adverse events. There were no serious adverse events being reported. CONCLUSIONS Inclisiran was generally safe and well tolerated. Single dose of both Inclisiran 100 and 300 mg significantly reduced PCSK9 and LDL-C levels in Chinese patients up to Day 90. The greatest reductions were observed with the 300 mg regimen of Inclisiran. TRIAL REGISTRATION ClinicalTrials.gov: NCT04774003.

Current status and time trends of lipid and use of statins among older adults in China-real world data from primary community health institutions. Front Public Health 2023; 11:1138411. [PMID: 37181715 PMCID: PMC10169566 DOI: 10.3389/fpubh.2023.1138411] [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: 01/05/2023] [Accepted: 04/05/2023] [Indexed: 05/16/2023] Open
Abstract
Background Elevated serum total cholesterol and low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C) levels are established risk factors for cardiovascular diseases, a leading cause of death in China, especially in aged population. We sought to assess the latest levels of serum lipids, prevalence of dyslipidemia and achievement of LDL-C lowering targets among Chinese aged population. Methods The data was obtained from the annual health check and medical records in primary community health institutions of Yuexiu District, Guangzhou, Southern China. A sample of approximately 135,000 participants provides comprehensive estimates of the status of cholesterol level and statins use in older adults in China. Clinical characteristics were compared by different age grades, genders and years. Independent risk factors associated with statin use were determined by stepwise logistic regression analysis. Results The mean levels of TC, HDL-C, LDL-C, TG were 5.39, 1.45, 3.10, and 1.60 mmol/L, respectively, while the prevalence of high TC, high TG, high LDL-C, and low HDL-C were 21.99, 15.52, 13.26, and 11.92%, respectively. Although statin use showed an increasing trend in both participants > 75 years and ≤75 years of age, the achievement of treatment goals fluctuated between 40.94 and 48.47%, and even seemed to have a downward trend. Stepwise multiple logistic regression analysis further indicated that age, medical insurance, ability of self-care, hypertension, stroke, CAD, and high LDL-C were shown to be associated with statins use (P < 0.05). Those aged ≤75 years old seemed to be less likely to use statin, and those without medical insurance or ability of self-care seemed to be less likely to use statin, too. Patients with hypertension, stroke, CAD and high LDL-C were more inclined to use statins. Conclusion Chinese aged population currently experienced high serum lipid levels and prevalence of dyslipidemia. Although an increasing trend was shown in the proportion of high CVD risk and statin use, the achievement of treatment goals seemed to have a downward trend. Improvement of lipid management is necessary in order to reduce the burden of ASCVD in China.

[PMID: 36805193 DOI: 10.1016/j.numecd.2023.01.006] [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: 09/03/2022] [Revised: 01/05/2023] [Accepted: 01/09/2023] [Indexed: 01/15/2023]
Abstract
BACKGROUND AND AIMS Little is known about the long-term trends in ethnic differences in cardiovascular health (CVH) in China in recent years. This study aimed to investigate ethnic differences in CVH and identify long-term trends in China. METHODS AND RESULTS This survey was based on the physical examination data of Tacheng Prefecture in China from 2016 to 2020, and included 1,947,938 physical examination participants aged over 20 years for analysis. The American Heart Association (AHA) criteria were used to evaluate the clinical CVH of the subjects. The time trends from 2016 to 2020 were assessed using a weighted linear regression model stratified by ethnicity. The ethnic groups included Han, Kazakh, Hui, Mongolian, Uyghur, among others. The mean ideal clinical cardiovascular score was highest in Hui and lowest in Uyghur. The scores increased from 5.99 (5.95-6.03) to 6.11 (6.08-6.14) in Kazakh males and from 6.05 (5.99-6.11) to 6.11 (6.06-6.16) in Hui males among participants (Plinear trend < 0.001). The scores for the other groups declined significantly from 2016 to 2020(Plinear trend < 0.05). In the sensitivity analysis, the trend remained unchanged after calculating the body mass index (BMI) cut-off for China. CONCLUSION Clinical CVH differences still exist among different ethnic groups, with a decline in CVH from 2016 to 2020 in all except Kazakh and Hui males. This may indicate a higher incidence and poorer prognosis of cardiovascular disease in the future and can provide guidelines for improving CVH.

Abstract
IMPORTANCE Stroke is the leading cause of death in China. However, recent data about the up-to-date stroke burden in China are limited. OBJECTIVE To investigate the urban-rural disparity of stroke burden in the Chinese adult population, including prevalence, incidence, and mortality rate, and disparities between urban and rural populations. DESIGN, SETTING, AND PARTICIPANTS This cross-sectional study was based on a nationally representative survey that included 676 394 participants aged 40 years and older. It was conducted from July 2020 to December 2020 in 31 provinces in mainland China. MAIN OUTCOMES AND MEASURES Primary outcome was self-reported stroke verified by trained neurologists during a face-to-face interviews using a standardized protocol. Stroke incidence were assessed by defining first-ever strokes that occurred during 1 year preceding the survey. Strokes causing death that occurred during the 1 year preceding the survey were considered as death cases. RESULTS The study included 676 394 Chinese adults (395 122 [58.4%] females; mean [SD] age, 59.7 [11.0] years). In 2020, the weighted prevalence, incidence, and mortality rates of stroke in China were 2.6% (95% CI, 2.6%-2.6%), 505.2 (95% CI, 488.5-522.0) per 100 000 person-years, and 343.4 (95% CI, 329.6-357.2) per 100 000 person-years, respectively. It was estimated that among the Chinese population aged 40 years and older in 2020, there were 3.4 (95% CI, 3.3-3.6) million incident cases of stroke, 17.8 (95% CI, 17.5-18.0) million prevalent cases of stroke, and 2.3 (95% CI, 2.2-2.4) million deaths from stroke. Ischemic stroke constituted 15.5 (95% CI, 15.2-15.6) million (86.8%) of all incident strokes in 2020, while intracerebral hemorrhage constituted 2.1 (95% CI, 2.1-2.1) million (11.9%) and subarachnoid hemorrhage constituted 0.2 (95% CI, 0.2-0.2) million (1.3%). The prevalence of stroke was higher in urban than in rural areas (2.7% [95% CI, 2.6%-2.7%] vs 2.5% [95% CI, 2.5%-2.6%]; P = .02), but the incidence rate (485.5 [95% CI, 462.8-508.3] vs 520.8 [95% CI, 496.3-545.2] per 100 000 person-years; P < .001) and mortality rate (309.9 [95% CI, 291.7-328.1] vs 369.7 [95% CI, 349.1-390.3] per 100 000 person-years; P < .001) were lower in urban areas than in rural areas. In 2020, the leading risk factor for stroke was hypertension (OR, 3.20 [95% CI, 3.09-3.32]). CONCLUSIONS AND RELEVANCE In a large, nationally representative sample of adults aged 40 years or older, the estimated prevalence, incidence, and mortality rate of stroke in China in 2020 were 2.6%, 505.2 per 100 000 person-years, and 343.4 per 100 000 person-years, respectively, indicating the need for an improved stroke prevention strategy in the general Chinese population.

Front Cardiovasc Med 2023; 10:922932. [PMID: 36844741 PMCID: PMC9947472 DOI: 10.3389/fcvm.2023.922932] [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: 04/18/2022] [Accepted: 01/20/2023] [Indexed: 02/11/2023] Open
Abstract
Objective In China, a limited number of studies focus on women and examine the effect of cardiometabolic multimorbidity (defined as the presence of two or more cardiometabolic diseases) on health outcomes. This research aims to investigate the epidemiology of cardiometabolic multimorbidity and the association of cardiometabolic multimorbidity with long-term mortality. Methods This study used data from the China Health and Retirement Longitudinal Study between 2011 and 2018, which includes 4,832 women aged 45 years and older in China. Poisson-distributed Generalized Linear Models (GLM) were applied to examine the association of cardiometabolic multimorbidity with all-cause mortality. Results Overall, the prevalence of cardiometabolic multimorbidity was 33.1% among the total sample of 4,832 Chinese women, and increased with age, ranging from 28.5% (22.1%) for those aged 45-54 years to 65.3% (38.2%) for those aged ≥75 years in urban (rural) areas. Compared with the group of none and single disease, cardiometabolic multimorbidity was positively associated with all-cause death (RR = 1.509, 95% CI = 1.130, 2.017), after adjusting socio-demographic and lifestyle behavioral covariates. Stratified analyses revealed that the association between cardiometabolic multimorbidity and all-cause death was only statistically significant (RR = 1.473, 95% CI = 1.040, 2.087) in rural residents, but not significant in urban residents. Conclusion Cardiometabolic multimorbidity is common among women in China and has been associated with excess mortality. Targeted strategies and people-centered integrated primary care models must be considered to more effectively manage the cardiometabolic multimorbidity shift from focusing on single-disease.

Abstract
Dyslipidemia is one of the known risk factors for cardiovascular disease, and its prevalence is increasing worldwide. At present, the study of dyslipidemia has gradually shifted from simple environmental or genetic factors to environment-gene interactions. In order to further explore the etiology and mechanism of dyslipidemia, we used occupational stress(OS) and LYPLAL1, APOC3 and SOD2 gene as research variables to explore their association with dyslipidemia.Here we used a case-control study to include Han workers from a coal mining enterprise in China to determine the association between study variables and dyslipidemia. Monofactor analysis showed that smoking, drinking, physical activity level, DASH diet score, sleep quality, BMI, hypertension, hyperuricemia, shift work, OS were significantly different between the two groups (P < 0.05). In the APOC3 rs2854116 dominant model, patients with CT/CC genotype had a higher risk of dyslipidemia than those with TT genotype. In SOD2 rs4880 recessive model, patients with GG genotype had a lower risk of dyslipidemia than those with AA/AG genotype, and the difference was statistically significant. We found that rs12137855 and OS, rs2854116 and OS, rs4880 and OS had joint effects, but no interaction based on the multiplication and addition model was found (Pinteraction > 0.05). GMDR model showed that the rs12137855-rs2854116-rs4880-OS four-factor model had the highest cross-validation consistency and training-validation accuracy (P < 0.05), suggesting that there was a high-order interaction between them associated with dyslipidemia. We found that dyslipidemia in coal miners was related to OS and genetic factors. Through this study, we revealed the dual regulation of environmental factors and genetic factors on dyslipidemia. At the same time, this study provides clues for understanding the etiology and mechanism of dyslipidemia.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Midlife in women is associated with an increase in prevalence of hypertension. Little is known on the risk factors of new-onset hypertension among middle-aged women. METHODS In this nested case-control study, 1,430 women aged 40 to 60 years with repeated physical examinations between 2009 and 2019 were recruited. Data included age, body mass index, blood pressure (BP), and a series of blood biomarkers. Participants with hypertension were divided into two case-control samples: 388 cases with episodic new-onset hypertension (ie, one normal BP at the first visit and one abnormal BP during follow-up) each with two age-matched controls (n = 776) and 151 cases with regular new-onset hypertension (ie, normal BP at the first two visits and abnormal BP at two or more follow-up visits) each with three age-matched controls (n = 453). Multivariable-adjusted logistic regression was used to analyze the data. RESULTS Our data showed very consistent results for episodic and regular new-onset hypertension, respectively, and verified known associations (odds ratio [95% confidence interval], per SD increase) with obesity (body mass index, 1.72 [1.49-1.98] and 1.81 [1.45-2.26]), inflammation (white blood cell count, 1.39 [1.23-1.58] and 1.38 [1.13-1.69]), and metabolic dysregulation (triglycerides, 1.25 [1.09-1.44] and 1.31 [1.08-1.58]; glucose, 1.46 [1.23-1.73] and 1.27 [1.05-1.54]) but, more surprisingly, also revealed positive associations with red blood cell count (1.27 [1.11-1.44] and 1.38 [1.14-1.68]), hemoglobin (1.18 [1.03-1.35] and 1.31 [1.05-1.64]), and platelet count (1.39 [1.20-1.61] and 1.33 [1.09-1.63]). CONCLUSIONS In addition to obesity and metabolic dysregulation, increased hemoglobin and counts of platelets, and red and white blood cells are associated with hypertension in this period. Future study may verify whether these associations are causal in nature and whether these variables are useful in risk stratification.

Abstract
Alcohol consumption is a proven risk factor of dyslipidemia. In the present analysis, we investigated the association of alcohol intake with dyslipidemia, an emerging epidemic in China, in male patients with hypertension and diabetes mellitus. Our study participants were from a nationwide registry (n = 1181). A questionnaire was administered to collect information on alcohol intake. Dyslipidemia was defined as an elevated concentration of serum triglycerides (≥2.3 mmol/L), total (≥6.2 mmol/L) or low-density lipoprotein (LDL) cholesterol (≥4.1 mmol/L), or a reduced high-density lipoprotein (HDL) cholesterol (< 1.0 mmol/L). Serum concentrations of triglycerides (1.60 mmol/L) and total (4.93 mmol/L) and LDL cholesterol (2.95 mmol/L) were highest with current usual drinking, with a significant P value for trend from never (n = 679) to ever (n = 107) and to rare (n = 187) and usual drinkers (n = 208, P ≤ .002). Serum HDL cholesterol (1.13 mmol/L) was lowest in ever drinkers, with a nonsignificant P value for trend (P = .22). The prevalence was highest in usual drinkers for hypertriglyceridemia (27.4%) and total (12.5%) and LDL hypercholesterolemia (8.7%), and in ever drinkers for low HDL cholesterol (34.6%). The P value for trend was significant for hypertriglyceridemia and total hypercholesterolemia (P ≤ .01), but not for LDL hypercholesterolemia or low HDL cholesterol (P ≥ .26). The between-province ecological analysis showed that the proportion of usual drinking was significantly associated with the prevalence of any dyslipidemia across 10 China provinces (r = .42, P < .0001). In conclusion, alcohol drinkers showed a worse lipid profile in patients with hypertension and diabetes mellitus. Usual drinking ecologically explained the between-province variation in the prevalence of dyslipidemia.

Residential greenness and dyslipidemia risk: Dose-response relations and mediation through BMI and air pollution. ENVIRONMENTAL RESEARCH 2023; 217:114810. [PMID: 36395867 DOI: 10.1016/j.envres.2022.114810] [Citation(s) in RCA: 4] [Impact Index Per Article: 4.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/30/2022] [Revised: 11/02/2022] [Accepted: 11/12/2022] [Indexed: 06/16/2023]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Evidence on associations of residential greenness with dyslipidemia is limited, particularly regarding dose-response relations and mediation. OBJECTIVES To investigate associations between greenness and dyslipidemia, non-linear dose-response relationships and mediators. METHODS This cross-sectional study draws on the 2018 Fujian Behavior and Disease Surveillance (FBDS) cohort that used multi-stage stratified random sampling from the general population of Fujian Province, China. Participants with one or more abnormities in total cholesterol (TC), triglycerides (TG), high-density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL-C), or low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C) were classified as having dyslipidemia. Residential greenness was operationalized as 3-year average of the normalized difference vegetation index (NDVI500m) and enhanced vegetation index (EVI500m). A doubly robust approach was used for effect quantification. Dose-response relations were studied with natural cubic splines. Mediation via physical activity (PA), body mass index (BMI), PM2.5, PM10, SO2, and NO2 was also examined. RESULTS Data from 43,183 participants were analyzed. Increases in NDVI500m and EVI500m residential greenness were associated with decreased dyslipidemia risk and improved blood lipids. Non-linear dose response relationships were discovered. Significant reduction of dyslipidemia risk was observed at levels of EVI500m > 0.48 and NDVI500m > 0.65. Joint mediation effects of PA, BMI, PM2.5, PM10, NO2, and SO2 on the associations of NDVI500m and EVI500m with dyslipidemia risk were 49.74% and 44.64%, respectively. CONCLUSIONS Increased residential exposure to greenness was associated with decreased risk of dyslipidemia. A non-linear dose-response relationship between greenness and dyslipidemia suggests that specific thresholds of greenness need to be reached in order to achieve effects. BMI, PM2.5, and PM10 partially mediated the association.

Longitudinal Association between Physical Activity, Blood Lipids, and Risk of Dyslipidemia among Chinese Adults: Findings from the China Health and Nutrition Surveys in 2009 and 2015. Nutrients 2023; 15:341. [PMID: 36678212 PMCID: PMC9866702 DOI: 10.3390/nu15020341] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/16/2022] [Revised: 01/05/2023] [Accepted: 01/07/2023] [Indexed: 01/12/2023] Open
Abstract
Physical activity is needed in today’s highly sedentary society. Research into Chinese trends with respect to the longitudinal association between changes in physical activity (PA) and dyslipidemia (DL) is limited. The present study assessed PA and PA-related changes associated with the level of serum lipids, and the risk of dyslipidemia stratified by gender, via a population-based longitudinal observational study among adults (>18 years old) residing in nine provinces in China. Data of 3380 adult participants, gleaned from two surveys in 2009 and 2015 used by the China Health and Nutrition Survey (CHNS), were analyzed. Three-level random intercept growth models were used to calculate the associations between total physical activity (TPA), the four activity subtypes, and changes in the level of blood lipids. Three-level logistic regression models were utilized to assess the association between TPA and the risk of DL. The highest level of TPA was observed to correlate with the lowest prevalence of DL. Compared with the lowest level of TPA, the highest level of TPA increases the concentration of HDL-C (β = 0.050, 95% CI = 0.005, 0.096) in males, and also reduces the risk in males of having low HDL-C by 31% (OR = 0.69, 95% CI = 0.52, 0.91). Occupational PA was positively associated with higher HDL-C levels in both genders (males: β = 0.004, 95% CI = 0.002, 0.007; females: β = 0.002, 95% CI = 0.000, 0.004), and leisure-time physical activity (LTPA) was negatively associated with TG levels in males. Increasing TPA benefited HDL-C levels in males, irrespective of the level of basic TPA of individuals. Physical activity (especially occupational PA) was superior in positively influencing HDL-C in males, but not in females. Leisure-time physical activity needs to be increased substantially in order to increase TPA to levels that would be beneficial to blood lipid levels and DL, irrespective of baseline TPA levels.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Health interventions can delay or prevent the occurrence and development of diabetes. Dynamic nomogram and risk score (RS) models were developed to predict the probability of developing type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) and identify high-risk groups. METHODS Participants (n = 44,852) from the Beijing Physical Examination Center were followed up for 11 years (2006-2017); the mean follow-up time was 4.06 ± 2.09 years. Multivariable Cox regression was conducted in the training cohort to identify risk factors associated with T2DM and develop dynamic nomogram and RS models using weighted estimators corresponding to each covariate derived from the fitted Cox regression coefficients and variance estimates, and then undergone internal validation and sensitivity analysis. The concordance index (C-index) was used to assess the accuracy and reliability of the model. RESULTS Of the 44,852 individuals at baseline, 2,912 were diagnosed with T2DM during the follow-up period, and the incidence density rate per 1,000 person-years was 16.00. Multivariate analysis indicated that male sex (P < 0.001), older age (P < 0.001), high body mass index (BMI, P < 0.05), high fasting plasma glucose (FPG, P < 0.001), hypertension (P = 0.015), dyslipidaemia (P < 0.001), and low serum creatinine (sCr, P < 0.05) at presentation were risk factors for T2DM. The dynamic nomogram achieved a high C-index of 0.909 in the training set and 0.905 in the validation set. A tenfold cross-validation estimated the area under the curve of the nomogram at 0.909 (95% confidence interval 0.897-0.920). Moreover, the dynamic nomogram and RS model exhibited acceptable discrimination and clinical usefulness in subgroup and sensitivity analyses. CONCLUSIONS The T2DM dynamic nomogram and RS models offer clinicians and others who conduct physical examinations, respectively, simple-to-use tools to assess the risk of developing T2DM in the urban Chinese current or retired employees.

Abstract
Introduction The study aims to examine the trends of 4 metabolic NCDs risk factors including raised blood pressure, increased blood glucose, elevated blood lipids and overweight/obesity over the last 10 years in Vietnam as well as examine these trends among different sub-population by geographical area, gender, and age groups. Methods The study combined the national representative data from three rounds of STEPs survey in Vietnam conducted in 2010, 2015, and 2020 on people aged 25-64 years. The overall prevalence of each metabolic factor together with 95% CI for each time point as well as the stratified prevalence by rural/urban, male/female, and 4 separated age groups were calculated and considered the sampling weight. Cochran-Armitage test for trend was used to test for the differences in the prevalence over time. Results The prevalence of hypertension, overweight/obesity, hyperglycemia, and hyperlipidemia among the population aged 25-64 years old was 28.3, 20.57, 6.96, and 15.63%, respectively in the year 2020. All NCD metabolic risk factors examined in this analysis show significantly increasing trends over time. For most age groups, the increasing burden of NCD metabolic risk factors was more significant during the period 2015-2020 compared to the period 2010-2015. Male population and population aged 55-64 experienced the most dramatic changes in the burden of all NCD metabolic risk factors. Conclusion To reverse the increasing trend of NCD metabolic factors in Vietnam, intervention, and policy need to apply a comprehensive life course approach.

Abstract
Accumulating evidence has demonstrated that metformin improved hypertriglyceridemia. The present study aim to investigate the molecular mechanism by which metformin improves hypertriglyceridemia via regulation of diacylglycerol O-acyltransferase 2 (DGAT2) and X-box binding protein 1 (XBP1) in the liver and whether AMP-activated protein kinase (AMPK) is involved. Mice were fed a high-fat diet (HFD) or high-fat diet with metformin for 5 weeks to evaluate the effect of metformin on triglyceride (TG) levels and expression of DGAT2 and XBP1 in the liver. In vitro HepG2 cells or XBP1 knockout AML12 hepatocytes were stimulated with metformin, palmitic acid or small interfering RNA inducing XBP1 knockdown, or dominant-negative mutant AMPK plasmid. Metformin treatment reduced hepatic TG levels in the liver of HFD-fed mice. Expression of nuclear and cytoplasmic XBP1 protein and its downstream target gene DGAT2 decreased in the liver of HFD-fed mice and HepG2 cells after metformin treatment. AMPK inactivation or overexpression of XBP1 attenuates this effect. Our preliminary results demonstrate that metformin activates AMPK to reduce TG synthesis by inhibiting the XBP1-mediated DGAT2 pathway, at least in part, suggesting that XBP1 is a new metabolic mediator for metformin treatment of hypertriglyceridemia and associated metabolic disease.
