Abstract
Purpose: The type 2 diabetes (T2D) burden is disproportionately concentrated in low- and middle-income economies, particularly among rural populations. The purpose of the systematic review was to evaluate the inclusion of rurality and social determinants of health (SDOH) in documents for T2D primary prevention. Methods: This systematic review is reported following Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analysis guidelines. We searched 19 databases, from 2017-2023, for documents on rurality and T2D primary prevention. Furthermore, we searched online for documents from the 216 World Bank economies, categorized by high, upper-middle, lower-middle, and low income status. We extracted data on rurality and the ten World Health Organization SDOH. Two authors independently screened documents and extracted data. Findings: Based on 3318 documents (19 databases and online search), we selected 15 documents for data extraction. The 15 documents applied to 32 economies; 12 of 15 documents were from nongovernment sources, none was from low-income economies, and 10 of 15 documents did not define or describe rurality. Among the SDOH, income and social protection (SDOH 1) and social inclusion and nondiscrimination (SDOH 8) were mentioned in documents for 25 of 29 high-income economies, while food insecurity (SDOH 5) and housing, basic amenities, and the environment (SDOH 6) were mentioned in documents for 1 of 2 lower-middle-income economies. For U.S. documents, none of the authors was from institutions in noncore (most rural) counties. Conclusions: Overall, documents on T2D primary prevention had sparse inclusion of rurality and SDOH, with additional disparity based on economic status. Inclusion of rurality and/or SDOH may improve T2D primary prevention in rural populations.

Abstract
AIMS/INTRODUCTION The aim was to examine the joint effect of metabolic syndrome (MetS) and insulin resistance (IR) with ideal cardiovascular health (iCVH) status on incident cardiovascular diseases (CVDs). MATERIALS AND METHODS The study included 6,240 Iranian adults ≥30 years, free of prior cardiovascular disease. Ideal cardiovascular health was determined based on American Heart Association's Life Simple 7. Metabolic syndrome was defined according to the Joint Interim Statement Criteria, and insulin resistance was defined as HOMA-IR ≥1.85 in women and ≥2.17 in men. Multivariable Cox proportional hazard ratios (HRs) were applied to examine the impact of metabolic syndrome, and insulin resistance at various levels of iCVH status. RESULTS During the median follow-up of 14.0 years, 909 cases of cardiovascular disease occurred. Metabolic syndrome and insulin resistance were significantly associated with incident cardiovascular disease events. In the poor and intermediate status, metabolic syndrome increased cardiovascular disease events with HRs of 1.83 and 1.57, respectively; the corresponding values for insulin resistance in the mentioned categories were 1.91 and 1.25, respectively (P values < 0.05). In the intermediate and poor iCVH status, hypertriglyceridemia was linked to a 40% and 35% higher risk of cardiovascular disease, the corresponding values for low HDL-C was 20% and 60%, respectively (P values < 0.05). Although adding metabolic syndrome, its dyslipidemia and insulin resistance to iCVH status in both poor and intermediate status significantly improve the prediction of cardiovascular disease using net reclassification improvement (P values < 0.05), the value of C-index did not change. CONCLUSIONS Metabolic syndrome and the dyslipidemia component had a negligible but significant improvement in the prediction of cardiovascular disease among individuals with non-optimal iCVH status.

Abstract
BACKGROUND AND AIMS Gender differences in cardiovascular disease (CVD) have been well documented but rarely for young adults and the extent to which gender related lifestyle differences may contribute to gender differences in CVD risk experienced by young adults have not been reported. METHODS AND RESULTS Data are from a long-running cohort study, the Mater-University of Queensland Study of Pregnancy (MUSP). We track gender differences in CVD related behaviours at 21 and 30 years (consumption of a Western Diet/Health-Oriented Diet, cigarette smoking, vigorous physical exercise, heavy alcohol consumption). At 30 years we compare males and females for CVD risk, and the extent to which lifestyle behaviours at 21 and 30 years contribute to CVD risk. At both 21 and 30 years of age, males more frequently consume a Western Diet and less often a Health Oriented Diet. By contrast, males are also much more likely to report engaging in vigorous physical activity. On most CVD markers, males exhibit much higher levels of risk than do females at both 21 and 30 years. At 30 years of age males have about five times the odds of being at high risk of CVD. Some lifestyle behaviours contribute to this additional risk. CONCLUSION Young adult males much more frequently engage in most CVD related risk behaviours and males have a higher level of CVD risk. Gender differences in CVD risk remain high even after adjustment for CVD lifestyles, though dietary factors independently contribute to CVD risk at 30 years.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Night work has been associated with coronary heart disease. The present study examined exposure-response relations between quantitative night work characteristics and coronary heart disease (angina pectoris or myocardial infarction) with the aim to contribute to evidence-based recommendations for low-risk night work schedules. METHODS We followed 100 149 night workers (80% women) and 153 882 day workers (78% women), all health care workers in Denmark with day by day payroll information on night shifts from 2007 to 2015. We analysed data with Poisson regression stratified by sex and adjusted for age, calendar year, diabetes, family history of cardiovascular disease, educational level, occupation, indicators for obesity, hypercholesterolaemia, and hypertension. RESULTS Female and male night workers worked on average 1.7 and 1.8 night shifts per month for an average duration of less than 4 years. During follow-up, 1198 night and 2128 day workers were hospitalized with first-time coronary heart disease. When compared with day workers, the overall incidence rate ratios for female and male night workers were 1.06 [95% confidence interval (CI): 0.97, 1.17] and 1.22 (95% CI 1.07, 1.39). Highest risks were observed in top exposure categories for several night work characteristics. However, no consistent exposure-response relations by number of monthly night shifts, cumulative night shifts, years with rotating night shifts, years with any night shift and consecutive night shifts were observed among the night workers of either sex. CONCLUSIONS This study of a population with low exposure to night work does not indicate that reducing extent of monthly night shifts, cumulative night shifts, years with rotating night shifts, years with any night shift and consecutive night shifts would reduce the risk of coronary heart disease.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Familial hypercholesterolemia (FH) is an inherited metabolic disorder characterized by high levels of low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-c) from birth. About 85% of all FH cases are caused by pathogenic variants in the LDLR gene. Individuals with FH have increased cardiovascular risk, including a high risk of premature myocardial infarction (PMI). METHODS We conducted an opportunistic exome screening to identify variants in the LDLR gene among Vietnamese patients with PMI treated at a general hospital in southern Vietnam. A cascade testing for LDLR variants was conducted in their relatives within three generations, and the effects of the LDLR variant on the response to rosuvastatin treatment were also studied using a comparative before-and-after study design on those who were eligible. RESULTS A total of 99 participants from the three generations of four PMI patients were recruited, mean age 37.3 ± 18.5 years, 56.6% males. Sanger sequencing revealed two variants in the LDLR gene: variant rs577934998 (c.664T>C), detected in 17 individuals within one family, and variant rs12710260 (c.1060+10G>C), found in 32 individuals (49.5%) in the other three families tested. Individuals harboring the variant c.664T>C had significantly higher baseline LDL-c and total cholesterol levels compared to those with variant c.1060+10G>C (classified as benign) or those without LDLR variants, and among the 47 patients subjected to a 3-month course of rosuvastatin therapy, those with variant c.664T>C had a significantly higher risk of not achieving the LDL-c target after the course of treatment compared to the c.1060+10G>C carriers. CONCLUSIONS These findings provide evidence supporting the existence of pathogenic LDLR variants in Vietnamese patients with PMI and their relatives and may indicate the need for personalizing lipid-lowering therapies. Further studies are needed to delineate the extent and severity of the problem.

Abstract
A steady rise in cardiovascular morbidity and mortality has been observed in young adults within the last decades. This trend corresponds to an increasing prevalence of traditional cardiovascular risk factors such as obesity and diabetes mellitus type 2 among young adults living in developed countries. Moreover, age-specific risk factors, such as substance abuse, contraceptive medication, and pregnancy-related diseases also correlate with an increased incidence of cardiovascular diseases. In this review, we discuss the available data for young adults on the epidemiology and the rationale for the causality of traditional and newly emerging risk factors of atherosclerotic cardiovascular diseases. We focus on gender-related differences in the exposure to these risk factors, investigate the recent data regarding screening and risk stratification in the young adult population, and describe the current state of the art on lifestyle and therapeutic intervention strategies in the primary prevention setting.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Myocardial infarction (MI) is increasing at a younger age. Growth differentiation factor-15 (GDF-15) has been implicated in several key mechanisms of atherogenesis. Arterial stiffness parameters, including pulse wave velocity (PWV) and the augmentation index (AIx), can indicate the presence or progression of atherosclerosis. The aim of this study is to evaluate the GDF-15 level and arterial stiffness parameters in patients with premature MI. METHOD Thirty patients aged ≤45 years (mean age: 39 ± 5 years, 23 male) who recovered from a MI and 15 age and sex-matched subjects were consecutively included. The serum GDF-15 concentration levels and arterial stiffness parameters of the patients and controls were measured. RESULTS GDF-15 levels were significantly higher in patients with premature MI, while there were no significant differences in PWV and AIx between the groups. The GDF-15 level was correlated negatively with high-density lipoprotein (HDL) cholesterol and positively with uric acid levels. Both GDF-15 (p = 0.046, odds ratio: 1.092, 95% confidence interval: 1.003-1.196) and HDL cholesterol (p = 0.037, odds ratio: 0.925, 95% confidence interval: 0.859-0.995) were found as independent factors associated with premature MI. CONCLUSIONS GDF-15 could be a risk factor for premature MI. Further studies are needed to elucidate the central role of GDF-15 in the pathophysiology of early atherosclerosis and MI in the young population.

Abstract
AIMS Data regarding the premature mortality (<65 years of age) due to ischemic heart disease (IHD) in Italy are scant. We sought to analyze the incidence of premature death due to IHD in Italy and its time trend between years 2011 and 2017. METHODS AND RESULTS We used the free publicly available EUROSTAT death certificate database to examine premature age-adjusted IHD mortality rates (per 100.000) and relative average annual percentage change (AAPC) in Italy from 2011 to 2017 using ICD-codes I20-I25. Over the study period, the proportional IHD-related mortality rates decline from 8.09% to 7.1% in the entire population (p for trend 0.012), showing a significant reduction in women (from 4.06% to 3.40%, p for trend: 0.02) but not in men (from 10.3% to 9.3%, p for trend 0.062). The age-adjusted IHD mortality rate decreased with an AAPC of -4.1 per year [(95% CI, -5.1 to -3.0), p < 0.001], resulting more pronounced in women [AAPC: -4.4 per year (95% CI: -6.4 to -2.3,), p = 0.001)] than in men [AAPC: -3.7 per year (95% CI: -5.4 to -2.0, p = 0.003)]. Age-adjusted IHD premature death rates above the 90th percentile were distributed in Italian southern regions and islands of Italy while premature death rates below the 10th percentile were clustered in the western and northeastern regions of the country. CONCLUSIONS In Italy, premature IHD-related mortality remains an important contributor to overall mortality. Age-adjusted mortality declined in the last decade, especially in the northern regions and among women. Moreover, a marked region-level variations were observed.

Abstract
AIMS To investigate the risk factors, clinical features, and prognostic factors of patients with premature acute myocardial infarction (AMI). MATERIALS AND METHODS A retrospective cohort study of patients with AMI included in data from the West China Hospital of Sichuan University from 2011 to 2019 was divided into premature AMI (aged < 55 years in men and < 65 years in women) and non-premature AMI. Patients' demographics, laboratory tests, Electrocardiography (ECG), cardiac ultrasound, and coronary angiography reports were collected. All-cause death after incident premature MI was enumerated as the primary endpoint. RESULTS Among all 8,942 AMI cases, 2,513 were premature AMI (79.8% men). Compared to the non-premature AMI group, risk factors such as smoking, dyslipidemia, overweight, obesity, and a family history of coronary heart disease (CHD) were more prevalent in the premature AMI group. The cumulative survival rate of patients in the premature AMI group was significantly better than the non-premature AMI group during a mean follow-up of 4.6 years (HR = 0.27, 95% CI 0.22-0.32, p < 0.001). Low left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) (Adjusted HR 3.00, 95% CI 1.85-4.88, P < 0.001), peak N-terminal pro-B-type natriuretic peptide (NT-proBNP) level (Adjusted HR 1.34, 95% CI 1.18-1.52, P < 0.001) and the occurrence of in-hospital major adverse cardiovascular and cerebrovascular events (MACCEs) (Adjusted HR 2.36, 95% CI 1.45-3.85, P = 0.001) were predictors of poor prognosis in premature AMI patients. CONCLUSION AMI in young patients is associated with unhealthy lifestyles such as smoking, dyslipidemia, and obesity. Low LVEF, elevated NT-proBNP peak level, and the occurrence of in-hospital MACCEs were predictors of poor prognosis in premature AMI patients.

Abstract
AIMS Family history is a known risk factor for early-onset myocardial infarction (EOMI). However, the role of modifiable lifestyle and metabolic factors in EOMI risk is unclear and may differ from that of older adults. METHODS This case-control study included myocardial infarction (MI) patients aged ≤45 years from the Bremen ST-elevation MI Registry and matched controls randomly selected from the general population (German National Cohort) at the same geographical region. Multiple logistic regression was used to estimate odds ratios (ORs) and 95% confidence intervals (CIs) for the individual and combined associations of lifestyle and metabolic factors with EOMI risk, overall and according to family history for premature MI. RESULTS A total of 522 cases and 1191 controls were included. Hypertension, current smoking, elevated waist-to-hip ratio, and diabetes mellitus were strongly associated with the occurrence of EOMI. By contrast, higher frequency of alcohol consumption was associated with decreased EOMI risk. In a combined analysis of the risk factors hypertension, current smoking, body mass index ≥25.0 kg/sqm, and diabetes mellitus, participants having one (OR = 5.4, 95%CI = 2.9-10.1) and two or more risk factors (OR = 42.3, 95%CI = 22.3-80.4) had substantially higher odds of EOMI compared to those with none of these risk factors, regardless of their family history. CONCLUSION This study demonstrates a strong association of smoking and metabolic risk factors with the occurrence of EOMI. The data suggest that the risk of EOMI goes beyond family history and underlines the importance of primary prevention efforts to reduce smoking and metabolic syndrome in young persons.

Abstract
Background The association between metabolic comorbidity and myocardial infarction (MI) among individuals with a family history of cardiovascular disease (CVD) is yet to be elucidated. We aimed to examine the combined effects of metabolic comorbidities, including diabetes mellitus, hypertension, and dyslipidemia, with a family history of CVD in first-degree on the risk of incident MI. Methods This cohort study consisted of 81,803 participants aged 40–89 years without a previous history of MI at baseline from the Korean Genome and Epidemiology Study. We performed Cox proportional hazard regression analysis to estimate the hazard ratios (HRs) and 95% confidence intervals (CIs) for MI and early-onset MI risk associated with metabolic comorbidity in individuals with a family history of CVD. Results During a median follow-up of 5 years, 1,075 and 479 cases of total and early-onset MI were reported, respectively. According to the disease score, among individuals who had a positive family history of CVD, the HRs for MI were 1.92 (95% CI: 1.47–2.51) in individuals with one disease, 2.75 (95% CI: 2.09–3.61) in those with two diseases, and 3.74 (95% CI: 2.45–5.71) in those with three diseases at baseline compared to individuals without a family history of CVD and metabolic diseases. Similarly, an increase of the disease score among individuals with a positive family history of CVD was associated with an increase in early-onset MI risk. Conclusion Metabolic comorbidity was significantly associated with an increased risk of MI among individuals with a family history of CVD.

Abstract
IMPORTANCE US rural vs nonrural populations have striking disparities in diabetes care. Whether rurality contributes to disparities in diabetes mortality is unknown. OBJECTIVE To examine rates and trends in diabetes mortality based on county urbanization. DESIGN, SETTING, AND PARTICIPANTS In this observational, cross-sectional study, the US Centers for Disease Control and Prevention Wide-Ranging Online Data for Epidemiologic Research database was searched from January 1, 1999, to December 31, 2018, for diabetes as a multiple cause and the underlying cause of death among residents aged 25 years or older in US counties. County urbanization was categorized as metro, medium-small, and rural. Weighted multiple linear regression models and jackknife resampling, with a 3-segment time component, were used. The models included exposures with up to 3-way interactions and were age standardized to the 2009-2010 population. The analyses were conducted from July 1, 2020, to February 1, 2022. EXPOSURES County urbanization (metro, medium-small, or rural), gender (men or women), age group (25-54, 55-74, or ≥75 years), and region (Midwest, Northeast, South, or West). MAIN OUTCOMES AND MEASURES Annual diabetes mortality rate per 100 000 people. RESULTS From 1999-2018, based on 4 022 238 309 person-years, diabetes was a multiple cause of death for 4 735 849 adults aged 25 years or older. As a multiple cause, diabetes mortality rates in 2017-2018 vs 1999-2000 were highest and unchanged in rural counties (157.2 [95% CI, 150.7-163.7] vs 154.1 [95% CI, 148.2-160.1]; P = .49) but lower in medium-small counties (123.6 [95% CI, 119.6-127.6] vs 133.6 [95% CI, 128.4-138.8]; P = .003) and urban counties (92.9 [95% CI, 90.5-95.3] vs 109.7 [95% CI, 105.2-114.1]; P < .001). In 2017-2018 vs 1999-2000, mortality rates were higher in rural men (+18.2; 95% CI, 14.3-22.1) but lower in rural women (-14.0; 95% CI, -17.7 to -10.3) (P < .001 for both). In the 25- to 54-year age group, mortality rates in 2017-2018 vs 1999-2000 showed a greater increase in rural counties (+9.4; 95% CI, 8.6-10.2) compared with medium-small counties (+4.5; 95% CI, 4.0-5.0) and metro counties (+0.9; 95% CI, 0.4-1.4) (P < .001 for all). Of all regions and urbanization levels, the mortality rate in 2017-2018 vs 1999-2000 was higher only in the rural South (+13.8; 95% CI, 7.6-20.0; P < .001). CONCLUSIONS AND RELEVANCE In this cross-sectional study, US rural counties had the highest overall diabetes mortality rate. The determinants of persistent rural disparities, in particular for rural men and for adults in the rural South, require investigation.

Abstract
Aging biology is a promising and burgeoning research area that can yield dual-purpose pathways and protein targets that may impact multiple diseases, while retarding or possibly even reversing age-associated processes. One widely used approach to classify a multiplicity of mechanisms driving the aging process is the hallmarks of aging. In addition to the classic nine hallmarks of aging, processes such as extracellular matrix stiffness, chronic inflammation and activation of retrotransposons are also often considered, given their strong association with aging. In this study, we used a variety of target identification and prioritization techniques offered by the AI-powered PandaOmics platform, to propose a list of promising novel aging-associated targets that may be used for drug discovery. We also propose a list of more classical targets that may be used for drug repurposing within each hallmark of aging. Most of the top targets generated by this comprehensive analysis play a role in inflammation and extracellular matrix stiffness, highlighting the relevance of these processes as therapeutic targets in aging and age-related diseases. Overall, our study reveals both high confidence and novel targets associated with multiple hallmarks of aging and demonstrates application of the PandaOmics platform to target discovery across multiple disease areas.

Abstract
There is a need to identify high-risk features that predict early-onset atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease (ASCVD). The authors provide insights to help clinicians identify and address high-risk conditions in the 20- to 39-year age range (young adults). These include tobacco use, elevated blood pressure/hypertension, family history of premature ASCVD, primary severe hypercholesterolemia such as familial hypercholesterolemia, diabetes with diabetes-specific risk-enhancing factors, or the presence of multiple other risk-enhancing factors, including in females, a history of pre-eclampsia or menopause under age 40. The authors update current thinking on lipid risk factors such as triglycerides, non-high-density lipoprotein cholesterol, apolipoprotein B, or lipoprotein (a) that are useful in understanding an individual's long-term ASCVD risk. The authors review emerging strategies, such as coronary artery calcium and polygenic risk scores in this age group, that have potential clinical utility, but whose best use remains uncertain. Finally, the authors discuss both the obstacles and opportunities for addressing prevention in early adulthood.

Abstract
Background: Coronary heart disease (CHD) is the major cause of mortality in the world with a significant impact on the younger population. The aim of this study was to identify prematurity among patients with coronary artery bypass graft surgery (CABG) based on the clustering of CHD risk factors. Methods: Patients were recruited from an existing cohort of candidates for CABG surgery named Tehran Heart Center Coronary Outcome Measurement (THC-COM). A latent class analysis (LCA) model was formed using 11 potential risk factors as binary variables: cigarette smoking, obesity, diabetes, family history of CHD, alcohol use, opium addiction, hypertension, history of stroke, history of myocardial infarction (MI), peripheral vascular disease (PVD), and hyperlipidemia (HLP). We analyzed our data to figure out how the patients are going to be clustered based on their risk factors. Results: For 566 patients who were studied, the mean age (SD) and BMI of patients were 59.1 (8.9) and 27.3 (4.1), respectively. The LCA model fit with two latent classes was statistically significant (G2 = 824.87, df = 21, p < 0.0001). The mean (SD) age of patients for Class I and Class II was 55.66 (8.55) and 60.87 (8.66), respectively. Class I (premature) was characterized by a high probability of smoking, alcohol consumption, opium addiction, and a history of MI (P < 0.05), and class II by a high probability of obesity, diabetes, and hypertension. Conclusion: Latent class analysis calculated two groups of severe CHD with distinct risk markers. The younger group, which is characterized by smoking, addiction, and the history of MI, can be regarded as representative of premature CHD.
