Higher systolic blood pressure is specifically associated with better islet beta-cell function in T2DM patients with high glycemic level. Cardiovasc Diabetol 2022; 21:283. [PMID: 36536433 PMCID: PMC9764532 DOI: 10.1186/s12933-022-01723-1] [Citation(s) in RCA: 2] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/06/2022] [Accepted: 12/07/2022] [Indexed: 12/24/2022] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND Patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) usually have higher blood viscosity attributed to high blood glucose that can decrease blood supply to the pancreas. A mild increase in blood pressure (BP) has been reported as a potential compensatory response that can maintain blood perfusion in the islet. However, how BP influences beta-cell function in T2DM subjects remains inconsistent. This study aimed to examine the relationship between BP and beta-cell function in patients with T2DM under different HbA1c levels. METHODS This is a cross-sectional study of 615 T2DM patients, whose clinical data were extracted from hospital medical records. Beta-cell function was assessed by insulin secretion-sensitivity index-2 (ISSI2). Multivariable linear regression analysis and restricted cubic splines (RCS) analysis were performed to identify the association between systolic BP (SBP) and ISSI2. Mediation analysis was performed to determine whether higher SBP could reduce blood glucose by enhancing beta-cell function. RESULTS After adjustment of potential confounders, in participants with HbA1c ≥ 10%, the SBP between 140 to150 mmHg had the highest log ISSI2 (b = 0.227, 95% CI 0.053-0.402), an association specific to participants with < 1 year duration of diabetes. RCS analyses demonstrated an inverted U-shaped association between SBP and ISSI2 with the SBP at 144 mmHg corresponding to the best beta-cell function. This higher SBP was "paradoxically" associated with lower 2 h postprandial blood glucose (PBG) when SBP < 150 mmHg that was almost exclusively mediated by ISSI2 (mediating effect = - 0.043, 95%CI - 0.067 to - 0.018; mediating effect percentage = 94.7%, P < 0.01). SBP was however not associated with improvement in ISSI2 or 2 h PBG in participants with HbA1c < 10%. CONCLUSIONS In early stage of diabetes, a slightly elevated SBP (140-150 mmHg) was transiently associated with better beta-cell function in T2DM patients with HbA1c ≥ 10% but not in those with HbA1c < 10%.

Cerebral perfusion and the risk of cognitive decline and dementia in community dwelling older people. CEREBRAL CIRCULATION - COGNITION AND BEHAVIOR 2022; 3:100125.

Abstract
Cerebral blood flow (CBF) and spatial coefficient of variation of the arterial transit time (ATT) are less sensitive markers of cognitive impairment and clinical dementia. Greater white matter hyperintensity volume (WMHV) was consistently associated with cognitive impairment and dementia, rendering it as a more sensitive longitudinal marker.
Background The arterial spin labeling-spatial coefficient of variation (sCoV) is a new vascular magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) parameter that could be a more sensitive marker for dementia-associated cerebral microvascular disease than the commonly used MRI markers cerebral blood flow (CBF) and white matter hyperintensity volume (WMHV). Methods 195 community-dwelling older people with hypertension were invited to undergo MRI twice, with a three-year interval. Cognition was evaluated every two years for 6-8 years using the mini-mental state examination (MMSE). We assessed relations of sCoV, CBF and WMHV with cognitive decline during follow-up. We also registered dementia diagnoses, up to 9 years after the first scan. In an additional analysis, we compared these MRI parameters between participants that did and did not develop dementia. Results 136/195 completed the second scan. sCoV and CBF were not associated with MMSE changes during 6-8 years of follow-up. Higher WMHV was associated with declining MMSE scores (-0.02 points/year/ml, 95%CI=-0.03 to -0.00). ScOv and CBF did not differ between participants who did (n=15) and did not (n=180) develop dementia, whereas higher WMHV was reported in participants who developed dementia after the first MRI (13.3 vs 6.1mL, p<0.001). There were no associations between longitudinal change in any of the MRI parameters and cognitive decline or subsequent dementia. Conclusion Global sCoV and CBF were less sensitive longitudinal markers of cognitive decline and dementia compared to WMHV in community-dwelling older people with hypertension. Larger longitudinal MRI perfusion studies are needed to identify possible (regional) patterns of cerebral perfusion preceding cognitive decline and dementia diagnosis.

Abstract
An exploratory study on the ‘raspberry’, a type of cortical microvascular formation. Hypothesis: raspberries form by angiogenesis induced by cerebral hypoperfusion. Are raspberries associated with clinical or pathological markers of hypoperfusion? Data: histopathological raspberry quantification, medical records, autopsy reports. Raspberries were associated with atherosclerosis of the basal cerebral arteries.
Introduction This retrospective study investigated a cortical microvascular formation, termed a ‘raspberry’ due to its appearance under a bright-field microscope. We examined whether there is support for the hypothesis that raspberry formation is an angiogenic process induced by cerebral hypoperfusion. Materials and Methods Raspberries were manually quantified in haematoxylin and eosin-stained cortical sections from the anterior frontal lobe of deceased individuals who had undergone a diagnostic neuropathological examination at the Department of Pathology, Lund, Sweden, during April 2019–January 2021. Subjects represented consecutively received cases during this 22-month period. The raspberry density was compared between subjects according to variables collected from medical records and autopsy reports: age, sex, hypertension, diabetes mellitus, atrial fibrillation, orthostatic hypotension, chronic heart failure, acute circulatory failure, aortic atherosclerosis, atherosclerosis of the basal cerebral arteries (referred to as ‘cerebral atherosclerosis’), cerebral small vessel disease, cerebral amyloid angiopathy, cerebral infarction, and ischaemic white matter disease. Results 62 subjects were included. The mean age was 71.9 years (range 46–97 years). 21 subjects (33.9%) were female. Independent-samples t-test showed a higher raspberry density in subjects with cerebral atherosclerosis (p = 0.029; 95% CI 0.7, 11.6 raspberries/cm²). The higher raspberry density in subjects with cerebral atherosclerosis remained in multiple linear regression (p = 0.003; 95% CI 2.3, 11.1 raspberries/cm²). Conclusion This exploratory study indicates that cortical raspberries could be associated with cerebral atherosclerosis. The remaining results were inconclusive but motivate further examination of variables such as acute circulatory failure.

Abstract
AIMS Orthostatic hypotension is a recognized complication of diabetes, but studies examining prevalence in diabetes are limited. The aim of this study was to ascertain the prevalence of orthostatic hypotension and the pattern of orthostatic BP response in a cohort of people with diabetes aged ≥ 50 years, embedded within the Irish Longitudinal Study of Ageing. METHODS Orthostatic hypotension was defined as a drop in systolic blood pressure (SBP) ≥ 20 mmHg or drop in diastolic blood pressure (DBP) ≥ 10 mmHg at 30 s after standing. Diabetes was defined by self-report but cross-checked against HbA1c and medication records. Multilevel mixed effects linear regression models were used to compare orthostatic BP in people with and without diabetes. RESULTS Some 3222 people were included, 7% (213 of 3222) of whom had diabetes. Prevalence of orthostatic hypotension in the group with diabetes was 22% (46 of 213) vs. 13% in those without diabetes; χ2 = 12.43; P < 0.001. Multilevel models demonstrated prolonged recovery of DBP in people with diabetes, with only 41% (87 of 213) returning to baseline by 60 s. Logistic regression models demonstrated that diabetes was associated with a significantly increased likelihood of orthostatic hypotension (odds ratio 1.84, 95% confidence interval 1.30-2.59; P = 0.001) and this remained robust after controlling for covariates. CONCLUSION Over one-fifth of older people with diabetes had orthostatic hypotension. Recovery of DBP is related to dynamic changes in total peripheral resistance and impairment of this baroreflex-mediated response may explain the higher prevalence in diabetes. Given the prognostic implications when co-existing with diabetes, orthostatic hypotension may represent a potentially modifiable risk factor for adverse outcomes in late-life diabetes.

Abstract
Despite the large body of data available, chronic cerebral hypoperfusion lacks an operative definition. In a tautological way, the term hypoperfusion is being referred to conditions of "inadequate blood flow", "defects of perfusion" or "dysfunction of autoregulation". The chronicity refers to sustained conditions or wavering states characterized by repeated phases of inefficient functional hyperemia. The phenomenon may affect the whole brain or defined areas. A few defined clinical disorders, including heart failure, hypotension, atherosclerosis of large or small vessels and carotid stenosis are thought to cause progressive brain disorders due to chronic hypoperfusion. The clinical relevance manifests mostly as neurocognitive disorders associated with neuroimaging changes.The available data support a conceptual framework that considerschronic cerebral hypoperfusiona likely, relevant pathogenic mechanism for the neurodegeneration-like progression of the neurocognitive disorders. The relationship between neuropathology, cerebral perfusion, and symptoms progression is, however, elusive for several aspects. Typical microangiopathy findings, such as MRI white matter hyperintensities, may appear in individuals without any cerebrovascular risk or vascular lesions. Pathology features of the MRI changes, such as demyelination and gliosis, may result from dysfunction of the neuro-vascular unit not directly associated withvascular mechanisms. In this review, we aim to overview the most common clinical conditions thought to reflect chronic hypoperfusion.

Abstract
Background Orthostatic hypotension is a prevalent condition in older adults and is associated with impaired physical performance and falls. The ability of older adults to compensate for rapid changes in systolic blood pressure (SBP; ie, SBP decline rate and SBP variability) may be important for physical performance. This study investigates the association of rapid SBP changes after standing up with physical performance. Methods and Results Consecutive patients who visited the Center of Geriatrics Amsterdam in 2014 and 2015 were included. The following SBP parameters were computed in 2 intervals (0–15 and 15–180 seconds) after standing up: steepness of steepest SBP decline; ratio of standing/supine SBP variability; and magnitude of largest SBP decline. Physical performance was assessed using the following measures: chair stand time, timed up and go time, walking speed, handgrip strength, and tandem stance performance. A total of 109 patients (45% men; age, mean, 81.7 years [standard deviation, 7.0 years]) were included. Steepness of steepest SBP decline (0–15 seconds) was associated with slower chair stand time (P<0.001), timed up and go time (P=0.022), and walking speed (P=0.024). Ratio of standing/supine SBP variability (0–15 seconds) was associated with slower chair stand time (P=0.005). Magnitude of largest SBP decline was not associated with physical performance. Conclusions SBP parameters reflecting rapid SBP changes were more strongly associated with physical performance compared with SBP decline magnitude in geriatric outpatients. These results support the hypothesis of an inadequate cerebral autoregulation during rapid SBP changes and advocate the use of continuous blood pressure measurements.

Abstract
Orthostatic hypotension (OH) is a common condition, particularly in patients with α-synucleinopathies such as Parkinson's disease, and has a significant impact on activities of daily living and quality of life. Recent data suggest an association with cognitive impairment. Herein, we review the evidence that OH increases the odds of incident mild cognitive impairment and dementia. Potential mechanisms underlying the putative relationship are discussed, including cerebral hypoperfusion, supine hypertension, white matter hyperintensities, and neurodegeneration. Finally, we highlight the challenges with respect to treatment and the negative impact on the quality of life and long-term prognosis presented by the coexistence of OH and dementia. Large population-based studies have reported that OH is associated with about a 20% increased risk of dementia in the general population, while smaller cohort studies suggest an even greater effect in patients with α-synucleinopathies (3- to 7-fold higher than controls). Ultimately, OH exposure is difficult to quantify, predominantly limited to pressure regulation during a one-time orthostatic challenge, and the causative association with dementia may turn out to be bidirectional, especially in α-synucleinopathies. Early diagnosis and treatment of OH may improve long-term prognosis.

Abstract
Quantitative measurements of brain perfusion are influenced by perfusion-modifiers. Standardization of measurement conditions and correction for important modifiers is essential to improve accuracy and to facilitate the interpretation of perfusion-derived parameters. An extensive literature search was carried out for factors influencing quantitative measurements of perfusion in the human brain unrelated to medication use. A total of 58 perfusion modifiers were categorized into four groups. Several factors (e.g., caffeine, aging, and blood gases) were found to induce a considerable effect on brain perfusion that was consistent across different studies; for other factors, the modifying effect was found to be debatable, due to contradictory results or lack of evidence. Using the results of this review, we propose a standard operating procedure, based on practices already implemented in several research centers. Also, a theory of 'deep MRI physiotyping' is inferred from the combined knowledge of factors influencing brain perfusion as a strategy to reduce variance by taking both personal information and the presence or absence of perfusion modifiers into account. We hypothesize that this will allow to personalize the concept of normality, as well as to reach more rigorous and earlier diagnoses of brain disorders.

Abstract
PURPOSE This study aimed to assess the effect of intraoperative blood loss (IBL) on short- and long-term outcomes of colorectal cancer surgery for very elderly patients. METHODS We acquired the data of consecutive patients aged 80 years or older who underwent elective radical surgery for stage I to III colorectal cancer between January 2003 and December 2007 in 41 institutions. The patients were divided into high and low IBL groups, and the differences in postoperative morbidity and survival between the two groups were primarily assessed. Eleven factors were treated as potential confounders in multivariate analyses. RESULTS A total of 1554 patients were eligible for this study, with an age range of 80-103 years. Median IBL was 71 ml (interquartile range, 25 to 200 ml), and 412 patients had IBL ≥200 ml. Morbidity was 46% among patients with IBL ≥200 ml, compared with 30 % among those with IBL <200 ml (p < 0.001). Patients with IBL ≥200 ml had worse overall survival rates and recurrence-free survival rates at 1, 3, and 5 years than those with IBL <200 ml. In multivariate analyses, IBL ≥200 ml was identified as an independent risk factor for postoperative adverse events (odds ratio (OR) 1.41, 95% confidence interval (CI) 1.08 to 1.86), overall survival (hazard ratio (HR) 1.34, 95% CI 1.04 to 1.72), and recurrence-free survival (HR 1.29, 95% CI 1.03 to 1.62). CONCLUSION The degree of IBL is significantly associated with postoperative morbidity and survival in very elderly colorectal cancer patients.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Contradictory results have been reported on the relationship between orthostatic hypotension (OH) and mild cognitive impairment (MCI). OBJECTIVE To study the incidence of MCI and dementia and their relationship to OH and subclinical OH with orthostatic symptoms (orthostatic intolerance). STUDY DESIGN AND SETTING This study used a prospective general population cohort design and was based on data from the Swedish Good Aging in Skåne study (GÅS-SNAC), they were studied 6 years after baseline of the present study, with the same study protocol at baseline and at follow-up. The study sample comprised 1,480 randomly invited subjects aged 60 to 93 years, and had a participation rate of 82% at follow-up. OH test included assessment of blood pressure and symptoms of OH. RESULTS The 6-year incidence of MCI was 8%, increasing from 12.1 to 40.5 per 1,000 person-years for men and 6.9 to 16.9 per 1,000 person-years for women aged 60 to >80 years. The corresponding 6-year incidence of dementia was 8%. Orthostatic intolerance during uprising was related to risk for MCI at follow-up (odds ratio [OR] =1.84 [1.20-2.80][95% CI]), adjusted for age and education independently of blood pressure during testing. After stratification for hypertension (HT), the corresponding age-adjusted OR for MCI in the non-HT group was 1.71 (1.10-2.31) and 1.76 (1.11-2.13) in the HT group. Among controls, the proportion of those with OH was 16%; those with MCI 24%; and those with dementia 31% (age-adjusted OR 1.93 [1.19-3.14]). CONCLUSION Not only OH, but also symptoms of OH, seem to be a risk factor for cognitive decline and should be considered in the management of blood pressure among the elderly population.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES We and others showed that migraineurs are at increased risk of subclinical and clinical ischemic brain lesions. Migraineurs also have a higher prevalence of frequent syncope and orthostatic intolerance, symptoms that are associated with transient reductions in cerebral blood flow. In this study, we assessed whether these autonomic symptoms may contribute to the increased risk of brain lesions in migraine. METHODS Migraineurs (n = 291) and controls (n = 140) from the population-based, cross-sectional CAMERA (Cerebral Abnormalities in Migraine, an Epidemiologic Risk Analysis) cohort (aged 30-60 years, and free of other neurologic symptoms) underwent 1) brain MRI scan, and 2) structured telephone interview including questions on frequent syncope (≥5/lifetime) and orthostatic intolerance. RESULTS Frequent syncope (odds ratio [OR] = 2.7; 95% confidence interval: 1.3-5.5) and orthostatic intolerance (OR = 2.0 [1.1-3.6]) were independent risk factors for high load of deep white matter lesions. Effects were strongest in women and similar in migraineurs and controls. Migraine diagnosis did not mediate or moderate these associations. Individuals with orthostatic intolerance had higher prevalence of high periventricular white matter lesion load (OR = 1.9 [1.1-3.5]). Syncope and orthostatic intolerance were not related to subclinical infarcts or infratentorial lesions. CONCLUSIONS Frequent syncope, orthostatic intolerance, and migraine independently increase the risk of white matter lesions, particularly in females.
