J Diabetes Investig 2024; 15:1266-1275. [PMID: 38747805 PMCID: PMC11363117 DOI: 10.1111/jdi.14231] [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: 01/02/2024] [Revised: 04/09/2024] [Accepted: 04/30/2024] [Indexed: 08/31/2024] Open
Abstract
AIMS/INTRODUCTION Individuals with diabetes are at high risk of developing cardiovascular events. The present study investigated the predictive value of the cardio-ankle vascular index (CAVI) when added to the Systematic Coronary Risk Evaluation 2-Diabetes (SCORE2-Diabetes) risk algorithm to predict cardiovascular events in the Asian population. MATERIALS AND METHODS The SCORE2-Diabetes risk was assessed in 1,502 patients with diabetes, aged 40-69 years. Then, we further stratified each 10-year risk category with a CAVI value of 9.0. The primary outcomes (composite of all causes of death, myocardial infarction, stroke and hospitalization for heart failure) were assessed over 5 years. RESULTS The mean age of the population was 59.8 ± 6.4 years. The proportion of 10-year risk according to the SCORE2-Diabetes risk of low, moderate, high and very high risk identified at 7.2, 30.0, 27.2 and 35.6%, respectively. The mean CAVI value was 8.4 ± 1.4, and approximately 35.4% of the patients had CAVI ≥9.0. The SCORE2-Diabetes risk algorithm independently predicted the primary outcomes in patients with diabetes (hazard ratio 1.18, 95% confidence interval [CI] 1.13-1.22), whereas CAVI did not (hazard ratio 1.03, 95% CI 0.89-1.18). The C-index for the primary outcomes of the SCORE2-Diabetes risk algorithm alone was 0.72 (95% CI 0.67-0.77). The combination of SCORE2-Diabetes and CAVI, both in the continuous value and risk groups, did not improve discrimination (C-index 0.72, 95% CI 0.67-0.77 and 0.68, 95% CI 0.64-0.74, respectively). CONCLUSIONS Adding the CAVI to the SCORE2-Diabetes risk algorithm did not improve individual risk stratification in patients with diabetes.

Remnant cholesterol, but not other traditional lipids or lipid ratios, is independently and positively related to future diabetes risk in Chinese general population: A 3 year cohort study. J Diabetes Investig 2024; 15:1084-1093. [PMID: 38568177 PMCID: PMC11292390 DOI: 10.1111/jdi.14205] [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: 01/01/2024] [Revised: 03/05/2024] [Accepted: 03/19/2024] [Indexed: 08/02/2024] Open
Abstract
AIMS Very few cohort studies are available about the relation between remnant cholesterol (RC) and diabetes. Based on a prospective cohort survey, this research aimed at investigating if high RC was related to a future diabetes risk in the Chinese population, as well as to compare the association between RC, high-density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL-C), low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C), total cholesterol (TC), triglycerides (TG), TG/HDL-C, LDL-C/HDL-C, TC/HDL-C, and non-high-density lipoprotein cholesterol (non-HDL-C), and future diabetes risk. MATERIALS AND METHODS 6,700 baseline normoglycemic participants of the REACTION study's Beijing center were recruited in 2011-2012 and followed up in 2015. Multivariate Cox regression analyses were performed to explore the relationship of RC, HDL-C, LDL-C, TC, TG, LDL-C/HDL-C, TG/HDL-C, TC/HDL-C, and non-HDL-C and a future diabetes risk. RESULTS After potential confounders were adjusted for, only RC (HR 1.134, 95% CI 1.016-1.267, P = 0.025) was positively related to a future diabetes risk, and only HDL-C (HR 0.728, 95% CI 0.578-0.918, P = 0.007) was negatively related to a future diabetes risk. The rest of the lipid parameters were not related to a future risk of diabetes. Sensitivity and stratification analyses revealed that the relation between RC and future diabetes risk was stable. RC and future diabetes risk were still positively correlated even when the HDL-C was ≥1.04 mmol/L (HR 1.167, 95% CI 1.050-1.297, P = 0.004). CONCLUSIONS It was RC, but not other lipid parameters, that was independently and positively related to a future risk of diabetes among the Chinese general population. Moreover, the relationship between RC and diabetes risk was stable, even with appropriate levels of HDL-C.

Mean platelet volume (MPV) as new marker of diabetic macrovascular complications in patients with different glucose homeostasis : Platelets in cardiovascular risk. Cardiovasc Diabetol 2024; 23:89. [PMID: 38431644 PMCID: PMC10909253 DOI: 10.1186/s12933-024-02177-3] [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: 01/15/2024] [Accepted: 02/24/2024] [Indexed: 03/05/2024] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND Platelets play an important role in the development of cardiovascular disease (CVD). Mean platelet volume (MPV) is considered as biological marker of platelets activity and function. The aim of the present study was to evaluate MPV values and its possible correlation with arterial stiffness and subclinical myocardial damage, in normal glucose tolerance patients (NGT), in newly diagnosed type 2 diabetic (T2DM) patients and in individuals with pre-diabetes. METHODS We enrolled 400 newly diagnosed hypertensive patients. All patients underwent an Oral Glucose Tolerance test (OGTT). Arterial stiffness (AS) was evaluated with the measurement of carotid-femoral pulse wave velocity (PWV), augmentation pressure (AP) and augmentation index (AI). Echocardiographic recordings were performed using an E-95 Pro ultrasound system. RESULTS Among groups there was an increase in fasting plasma glucose (FPG) (p < 0.0001), fasting plasma insulin (FPI) (p < 0.0001), high sensitivity c reactive protein (hs-CRP) levels (p < 0.0001) and a decrease in renal function as demonstrated by e-GFR values (p < 0.0001). From the NGT group to the T2DM group there was a rise in MPV value (p < 0.0001). Moreover, in the evaluation of arterial stiffness and subclinical myocardial damage, MPV showed a positive correlation with these parameters. CONCLUSIONS In the present study we highlighted that MPV is significantly increased, not only in newly diagnosed T2DM patients, but also in early stage of diabetes, indicating that subjects with pre-diabetes present increased platelets reactivity. Moreover, our results suggest that MPV is associated with increased arterial stiffness and subclinical myocardial damage, indicating MPV as new marker of CV risk.

Lifelong Heterogeneous Contribution of Cardiovascular Risk Factors to Slow and Fast Progression of Arterial Stiffness. Hypertension 2023; 80:2159-2168. [PMID: 37551598 DOI: 10.1161/hypertensionaha.123.21481] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/05/2023] [Accepted: 07/23/2023] [Indexed: 08/09/2023]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Although some cardiovascular risk factors (CVRFs) are known to be associated with increased arterial stiffness, increased arterial stiffness does not mediate the cardiovascular risk associated with all CVRFs. Here, based on long-term repeated-measurement data, we examined the association of the lifelong status of each CVRF with the rate of progression of arterial stiffness. METHODS We utilized the data from annual health checkups with the brachial-ankle pulse wave velocity measurements over a 16-year period in middle-aged Japanese occupational cohort. RESULTS Totally, 29 090 brachial-ankle pulse wave velocity data were obtained during the follow-up of 3763 subjects ranging in age from around 30 to 70 years. Smoking, heavy alcohol intake, hypertension, diabetes, hypertriglyceridemia, and hyperuricemia were independently associated with the fast progression of arterial stiffness. Also, lower values in nondisease range in blood pressure, glycosylated hemoglobin A1c, triglyceride, and uric acid were independently associated with the slow progression of arterial stiffness. For body mass index and low-density lipoprotein cholesterol, no clear associations with the progression of arterial stiffness were observed. CONCLUSIONS The present prospective study provided more robust epidemiological evidence for the heterogeneity of the significance of contribution of lifelong status of each CVRF to the slow and fast rate of progression of arterial stiffness. These findings suggest the important need to examine, in further studies, the effects of global early interventions to control the levels of the culprit CVRFs, even from middle age, not only to prevent a fast progression of the arterial stiffness but also to maintain a relatively slow progression of arterial stiffness.

[PMID: 37268640 DOI: 10.1038/s41598-023-35589-4] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/29/2022] [Accepted: 05/20/2023] [Indexed: 06/04/2023] Open
Abstract
In patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) arterial stiffness is associated with increased cardiovascular and total mortality. Little is known about determinants of arterial stiffness in clinical routine. Identification of potential determinants of arterial stiffness will help to address treatment targets for patients in the early state of T2DM. This is a cross-sectional analysis of arterial stiffness in 266 patients in the early stage of T2DM who did not have cardiovascular or renal complications. Parameters of arterial stiffness such as central systolic blood pressure (cSBP), central pulse pressure (cPP) and pulse wave velocity (PWV) were measured with the SphygmoCor System (AtCor Medical). We investigated the influence of parameters of glucose metabolism, lipid status, body constitution, blood pressure (BP) and inflammation on the stiffness parameters using multivariate regression analysis. The study cohort consisted of male and female patients aged 61 ± 8 years with mean diabetes duration of 6.4 ± 5.1 years, mean HbA1c 7.1 ± 0.9%, mean cSBP 121 ± 12 mmHg, mean cPP 44 ± 10 mmHg and mean PWV 8.9 ± 1.8 m/s. Multiple regression analysis identified waist circumference (WC) (beta = 0.411, p = 0.026), LDL-cholesterol (beta = 0.106, p = 0.006), systolic office BP (beta = 0.936, p < 0.001) and diabetes duration (beta = 0.233, p = 0.043) as potential determinants of cSBP. cPP was determined by sex (beta = 0.330, p = 0.008), age (beta = 0.383, p < 0.001), systolic office BP (beta = 0.370, p < 0.001) and diabetes duration (beta = 0.231, p = 0.028) whereas for PWV the following determinants could be identified: age (beta = 0.405, p < 0.001), systolic office BP (beta = 0.421, p < 0.001) and diabetes duration (beta = 0.073, p = 0.038). In addition to the known parameters age, sex and systolic office BP serum LDL-cholesterol, WC and diabetes duration have been identified as determinants of arterial stiffness in patients with T2DM. Treatment of patients in the early stage of T2DM should focus on these clinical parameters to prevent progression of arterial stiffness and as a consequence reduce cardiovascular mortality.Trial registration: The patients included in the analysis participated in one of the following clinical trials NCT02752113 (registered 26.4.2016), NCT02383238 (09.03.2015), NCT02471963 (15.06.2015), NCT01319357 (21.03.2011) ( http://www.clinicaltrials.gov ).

Abstract
Background: Pulse wave velocity (PWV) is a known predictor of target organ damage, cardiovascular disease and overall mortality. The aim of this study was to compare the PWV values in subjects with prediabetes, a non-dipper profile and arterial hypertension with their values in healthy subjects. Methods: A total of 301 subjects, aged 40–70 years, without diabetes mellitus were included in this cross-sectional study (150 with prediabetes). They underwent a 24 h ambulatory blood pressure monitoring (ABPM). Subjects were divided into three hypertension groups (A = healthy, B = controlled hypertension, C = uncontrolled hypertension). Dipping status was determined according to ABPM results, and PWV was measured by an oscillometric device. Prediabetes was defined as having 2 separate fasting plasma glucose (FPG) measurements between 5.6 and 6.9 mmol/L. Results: The highest PWV values were found in group C (9.60 ± 1.34 vs. 8.46 ± 1.01 in group B vs. 7.79 ± 1.10 in group A; p < 0.001), in subjects with prediabetes (8.98 ± 1.31 m/s vs. 8.26 ± 1.22 m/s; p < 0.001) and in prediabetic non-dippers among age groups (p = 0.05). In the multivariate regression model age, blood pressure, nocturnal indices and FPG were shown as independent predictors of PWV values. Conclusion: Significantly higher PWV values were found in subjects with prediabetes and non-dipping profiles in all three examined hypertension groups.

Glycemia is associated with subclinical atherosclerosis through renal function in nondiabetic apparently healthy adults: a mediation analysis. Hypertens Res 2023:10.1038/s41440-023-01192-3. [PMID: 36690807 DOI: 10.1038/s41440-023-01192-3] [Citation(s) in RCA: 2] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/02/2022] [Revised: 12/18/2022] [Accepted: 01/05/2023] [Indexed: 01/24/2023]
Abstract
The causative associations between glycemia and early alterations in renal and vascular function remain unclear. To examine the interplay among glycemia, renal function, and markers of subclinical atherosclerosis in apparently healthy subjects. Nondiabetic (30-60 years old) individuals (n = 205) without chronic kidney disease or cardiovascular disease were consecutively recruited from a cardiovascular prevention clinic. All subjects underwent arterial stiffness assessment by measuring the carotid-femoral pulse wave velocity (cfPWV). Glomerular filtration rate (GFR) was estimated by CKD-EPI equation. Study procedures were identical in the two visits (median follow-up 66 months). We employed structural equation modeling (SEM) analysis to investigate the directionality of associations. Baseline fasting plasma glucose (FPG) was independently and inversely associated with GFR (p = 0.008). GFR was significantly associated with cfPWV (p < 0.001) at baseline. By SEM analysis decreasing baseline GFR directly correlated with increasing cfPWV (p = 0.003) whereas FPG correlated with cfPWV indirectly through GFR (mediation) (P = 0.032). FPG did not mediate the effect of GFR on cfPWV (P = 0.768). SEM analysis of longitudinal data revealed bidirectional correlations between changes in FPG and GFR (P < 0.001). Alterations in GFR were directly related to changes in cfPWV (p < 0.001) whereas FPG only indirectly correlated with cfPWV through GFR changes (P = 0.002). In apparently healthy nondiabetic subjects, the association between baseline or longitudinal glycemia levels and arterial stiffening was indirect, consistently mediated by renal function status. These findings provide the first clinical evidence supporting the directionality between kidney function and glycemia in nondiabetic subjects leading to vascular dysfunction. In apparently healthy nondiabetic subjects, without cardiovascular disease or chronic kidney disease, the association between baseline or longitudinal glycemia levels and arterial stiffening was indirect, consistently mediated by renal function status.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Exaggerated exercise blood pressure (EEBP) during clinical exercise testing is associated with poor blood pressure (BP) control and cardiovascular disease (CVD). Type-2 diabetes (T2DM) is thought to be associated with increased prevalence of EEBP, but this has never been definitively determined and was the aim of this study. METHODS Clinical exercise test records were analyzed from 13 268 people (aged 53±13 years, 59% male) who completed the Bruce treadmill protocol (stages 1-4, and peak) at 4 Australian public hospitals. Records (including BP) were linked to administrative health datasets (hospital and emergency admissions) to define clinical characteristics and classify T2DM (n=1199) versus no T2DM (n=12 069). EEBP was defined as systolic BP ≥90th percentile at each test stage. Exercise BP was regressed on T2DM history and adjusted for CVD and risk factors. RESULTS Prevalence of EEBP (age, sex, preexercise BP, hypertension history, CVD history and aerobic capacity adjusted) was 12% to 51% greater in T2DM versus no T2DM (prevalence ratio [95% CI], stage 1, 1.12 [1.02-1.24]; stage 2, 1.51 [1.41-1.61]; stage 3, 1.25 [1.10-1.42]; peak, 1.18 [1.09-1.29]). At stages 1 to 3, 8.6% to 15.8% (4.8%-9.7% T2DM versus 3.5% to 6.1% no-T2DM) of people with 'normal' preexercise BP (<140/90 mm Hg) were identified with EEBP. Exercise systolic BP relative to aerobic capacity (stages 1-4 and peak) was higher in T2DM with adjustment for all CVD risk factors. CONCLUSIONS People with T2DM have higher prevalence of EEBP and exercise systolic BP independent of CVD and many of its known risk factors. Clinicians supervising exercise testing should be alerted to increased likelihood of EEBP and thus poor BP control warranting follow-up care in people with T2DM.

Abstract
Abstract
Several cross-sectional trials have revealed increased arterial stiffness connected with the cardiac autonomic neuropathy in types 2 and 1 diabetic patients. The pathophysiological relationship between arterial stiffness and autonomic dysfunction in diabetes mellitus is still underinvestigated and the question whether the presence of cardiac autonomic neuropathy leads to arterial stiffening or increased arterial stiffness induced autonomic nervous system impairment is still open. Both arterial stiffness and dysfunction of the autonomic nervous system have common pathogenetic pathways, counting state of the chronic hyperinsulinemia and hyperglycemia, increased formation of advanced glycation end products, activation of protein kinase C, development of endothelial dysfunction, and chronic low-grade inflammation. Baroreceptor dysfunction is thought to be one of the possible reasons for the arterial wall stiffening development and progression. On the contrary, violated autonomic nervous system function can affect the vascular tone and by this way alter the large arteries walls elastic properties. Another possible mechanism of attachment and/or development of arterial stiffness is the increased heart rate and autonomic dysfunction corresponding progression. This minireview analyzes the current state of the relationship between the diabetes mellitus and the arterial stiffness. Particular attention is paid to the analysis, interpretation, and application of the results obtained in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus and diabetic cardiac autonomic neuropathy.

Abstract
BACKGROUND AND AIM Proton pump inhibitors (PPIs) are among the most widely prescribed agents. Although PPIs are widely regarded as harmlesss, long-term use of PPIs (LTUPPI) can have the potential to increase the risk of developing cardiovascular (CV) disease (CVD). Pulse wave velocity (PWV) is a good indicator of arterial stiffness. Several studies show a relationship between LTUPPI and CVD. However, the association between LTUPPI and PWV or arterial stiffness has not been reported. PATIENTS AND METHODS Patients (n=64) with LTUPPI and controls (n=91) were included. PWV, glucose, creatinine, total cholesterol, triglyceride, low-density lipoprotein cholesterol, cholesterol, highdensity lipoprotein cholesterol, and magnesium levels were measured. RESULTS In the LTUPPI group, PWV was greater than in controls (9.08±2.04 vs. 7.77±1.52 m/s, respectively, p=0.01); 34.4% of patients and 8.8% of controls had PWV levels >10 m/s (p=0.000). Multiple logistic regression analysis showed age (p<0.001) and LTUPPI (p=0.024) as predictors of elevated PWV. CONCLUSION PWV values are increased in patients with LTUPPI compared to controls independently of conventional CV risk factors. Measurement of PWV and other arterial stiffness parameters in cases with LTUPPI may be useful to predict possible CVD. Studies involving greater numbers are needed to confirm these findings.

Age-specific difference in the association between prediabetes and subclinical atherosclerosis: an analysis of a chinese prospective cohort study. Cardiovasc Diabetol 2022; 21:153. [PMID: 35948892 PMCID: PMC9364510 DOI: 10.1186/s12933-022-01592-8] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/08/2022] [Accepted: 08/05/2022] [Indexed: 11/10/2022] Open
Abstract
Background Prediabetes is an important risk factor of cardiovascular disease (CVD) and is associated with subclinical atherosclerosis. However, the evidence of prediabetes as a cardiovascular risk factor is mainly derived from middle-aged adults. Recently, multiple studies supported that prediabetes in older adults would not lead to higher risk of CVD or mortality. We aimed to investigate the age-specific difference in the association between prediabetes and subclinical atherosclerosis in a Chinese prospective cohort study. Methods We included 4739 individuals aged ≥ 40 years and without diagnosed diabetes or CVD history, and divided them into middle-aged adults (age < 60) and older adults (age ≥ 60). Fasting plasma glucose (FPG), 2-h post-load plasma glucose (2 h-PPG) and glycated hemoglobin (HbA1c) were measured at baseline to identify prediabetes status. At follow-up visits, subclinical atherosclerosis status was assessed by branchial-ankle pulse wave velocity (baPWV) and carotid intima-media thickness (CIMT). Logistic regression analysis, restricted cubic splines and cross-lagged path analysis were used in statistical analysis. Results 1634 participants aged over 60 years, and 64.3% of them had prediabetes. 3105 participants aged 40–59 years, and 49.3% of them had prediabetes. We found that prediabetes was associated with increased risk of subclinical atherosclerosis in middle-aged adults, but the association attenuated substantially in older adults. Impaired glucose tolerance (IGT), compared to normal glucose tolerance, was associated with 39% lower risk of increased baPWV only in older adults. In accordance, the association between 2 h-PPG and risk of increased baPWV was “U-shaped” in older adults, while risk of elevated baPWV increased linearly with 2 h-PPG in middle-aged adults. In the cross-lagged analysis, increase in FPG and 2 h-PPG tended not to precede increase in baPWV in older adults, but appeared to increase simultaneously with baPWV in middle-aged ones. Conclusion Our results indicated that prediabetes might be less related to subclinical atherosclerosis in older adults than in middle-aged adults and suggested that age was important to consider in the care of adults with prediabetes.

Kidney disease parameters, metabolic goal achievement, and arterial stiffness risk in Chinese adult people with type 2 diabetes. J Diabetes 2022; 14:345-355. [PMID: 35510608 PMCID: PMC9366591 DOI: 10.1111/1753-0407.13269] [Citation(s) in RCA: 2] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/05/2021] [Revised: 03/02/2022] [Accepted: 03/28/2022] [Indexed: 12/22/2022] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND To investigate the arterial stiffness (AS) risk within urinary albumin-to-creatinine ratio (UACR) and estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) categories and the joint effect between kidney disease parameters and metabolic goal achievement on AS risk in adult people with type 2 diabetes (T2D). METHODS A total of 27 439 Chinese participants with T2D from 10 National Metabolic Management Centers (MMC) were categorized into four albuminuria/decreased eGFR groups. The criteria for decreased eGFR and AS were eGFR <90 ml/min/1.73 m2 and brachial-ankle pulse wave velocity value >the 75th percentile (1770.0 cm/s). Three metabolic goals were defined as glycated hemoglobin <7%, BP <130/80 mmHg, andlow-density lipoprotein cholesterol <2.6 mmol/L. RESULTS After full adjustment, odds ratios (ORs) for AS were highest for albuminuria and decreased eGFR (2.23 [1.98-2.52]) and were higher for albuminuria and normal eGFR (1.52 [1.39-1.67]) than for those with nonalbuminuria and decreased eGFR (1.17 [1.04-1.32]). Both UACR and eGFR in the subgroup or overall population independently correlated with AS risk. The achievement of ≥2 metabolic goals counteracted the association between albuminuria and AS risk (OR: 0.93; 95% CI: 0.80-1.07; p = .311). When the metabolic goals added up to ≥2 for patients with decreased eGFR, they showed significantly lower AS risk (OR: 0.65; 95% CI: 0.56-0.74; p < .001). CONCLUSIONS Both higher UACR and lower eGFR are determinants of AS risk, with UACR more strongly related to AS than eGFR in adults with T2D. The correlation between albuminuria/decreased eGFR and AS was modified by the achievement of multiple metabolic elements.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE We aimed to investigate prospective associations of pulse wave arterial stiffness index (ASI) and pulse pressure (PP) with type 2 diabetes (T2D) and assess the modifying effect of genetics. RESEARCH DESIGN AND METHODS We included 152,611 participants free of diabetes and cardiovascular disease in the UK Biobank. All participants had ASI and blood pressure measurements collected at baseline visit. In total, 37 single nucleotide polymorphisms were used to calculate the genetic risk score (GRS) of T2D. RESULTS During a median follow-up of 9.5 years, 3,000 participants developed T2D. Per-SD increase in ASI was associated with a 3% higher T2D risk (95% CI 2-4%). The hazard ratio (HR) (95% CI) of T2D was 1.58 (1.39-1.80) in the highest quintile group compared with the lowest quintile group of ASI. However, the association between PP and T2D was nonlinear. Compared with the lowest quintile group, the risk of T2D in higher quintile groups of PP was 0.91 (0.79-1.04), 0.98 (0.86-1.11), 1.15 (1.01-1.30), and 1.24 (1.10-1.41), respectively. Furthermore, we observed an interaction between ASI and genetic susceptibility to T2D, because the elevated HR of T2D associated with high ASI was more evident among participants with higher GRS of T2D (P interaction = 0.008), whereas the interaction between PP and GRS was nonsignificant (P interaction = 0.55). CONCLUSIONS ASI was associated with an elevated risk of T2D in a dose-response fashion, whereas PP and T2D showed a nonlinear J-shaped association. Additionally, the association between ASI and T2D was partially strengthened by higher genetic susceptibility to T2D.

Abstract
Aging and disease alter the composition and elastic properties of the aortic wall resulting in shape changes in blood pressure waveform (BPW). Here, we propose a new index, harmonic distortion (HD), to characterize BPW and its relationship with other in vitro and in vivo measures. Using a Fourier transform of the BPW, HD is calculated as the ratio of energy above the fundamental frequency to that at the fundamental frequency. Male mice fed either a normal diet (ND) or a high fat, high sucrose (HFHS) diet for 2–10 months were used to study BPWs in diet-induced metabolic syndrome. BPWs were recorded for 20 s hourly for 24 h, using radiotelemetry. Pulse wave velocity (PWV), an in vivo measure of arterial stiffness, was measured in the abdominal aorta via ultrasound sonography. Common carotid arteries were excised from a subset of mice to determine the tangent modulus using biaxial tension-inflation test. Over a 24-h period, both HD and systolic blood pressure (SBP) show a large variability, however HD linearly decreases with increasing SBP. HD is also linearly related to tangent modulus and PWV with slopes significantly different between the two diet groups. Overall, our study suggests that HD is sensitive to changes in blood pressure and arterial stiffness and has a potential to be used as a noninvasive measure of arterial stiffness in aging and disease.

Abstract
Diabetes is a major concern of our society as it affects one person out of 11 around the world. Elastic fiber alterations due to diabetes increase the stiffness of large arteries, but the structural effects of these alterations are poorly known. To address this issue, we used synchrotron X-ray microcomputed tomography with in-line phase contrast to image in three dimensions C57Bl6J (control) and db/db (diabetic) mice with a resolution of 650 nm/voxel and a field size of 1.3 mm3. Having previously shown in younger WT and db/db mouse cohorts that elastic lamellae contain an internal supporting lattice, here we show that in older db/db mice the elastic lamellae lose this scaffold. We coupled this label-free method with automated image analysis to demonstrate that the elastic lamellae from the arterial wall are structurally altered and become 11% smoother (286,665 measurements). This alteration suggests a link between the loss of the 3D lattice-like network and the waviness of the elastic lamellae. Therefore, waviness measurement appears to be a measurable elasticity indicator and the 3D lattice-like network appears to be at the origin of the existence of this waviness. Both could be suitable indicators of the overall elasticity of the aorta.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION The purpose of this study was to investigate the association between the mechanical properties of plantar soft tissue and diabetes status. METHOD 51 (M/F: 21/30) participants with prediabetes onset (fasting blood sugar [FBS] level > 100 mg/dL), age >18 years, and no lower limb amputation were recruited after ethical approval was granted from Pontificia Universidad Catolica del Peru ethical review board. Ultrasound reverberant shear wave elastography was used to assess the soft tissue stiffness at the 1st metatarsal head (MTH), 3rd MTH, and the heel at both feet. RESULTS Spearman's rank-order correlation (rho) test indicated a significant (P < .05) positive correlations between FBS level and the plantar soft tissue shear wave speed at the 1st MTH: rho = 0.402 (@400 Hz), rho = 0.373 (@450 Hz), rho = 0.474 (@500 Hz), rho= 0.395 (@550 Hz), and rho = 0.326 (@600 Hz) in the left foot and rho = 0.364 (@450 Hz) in the right foot. Mann-Whitney U test indicated a significantly (P < .05) higher shear wave speed in the plantar soft tissue with the following effect sizes (r) at the 1st MTH of the left foot at all tested frequencies: r = 0.297 (@450 Hz), r = 0.345 (@500 Hz), r = 0.322 (@550 Hz), and r = 0.275 (@600 Hz), and at the 1st MTH of right foot r = 0.286 (@400 Hz) in diabetes as compared with the age and body mass index matched prediabetes group. CONCLUSION An association between fasting blood sugar level and the stiffness of the plantar soft tissue with higher values of shear wave speed in diabetes versus prediabetes group was observed. This indicated that the proposed approach can improve the assessment of the severity of diabetic foot complications with potential implications in patient stratification.

Associations of lower-limb atherosclerosis and arteriosclerosis with cardiovascular risk factors and disease in older adults: The Atherosclerosis Risk in Communities (ARIC) study. Atherosclerosis 2022; 340:53-60. [PMID: 34799100 PMCID: PMC10167791 DOI: 10.1016/j.atherosclerosis.2021.10.014] [Citation(s) in RCA: 11] [Impact Index Per Article: 5.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/29/2021] [Revised: 10/14/2021] [Accepted: 10/29/2021] [Indexed: 11/16/2022]
Abstract
BACKGROUND & AIMS Atherosclerosis and arteriosclerosis contribute to vascular aging and cardiovascular disease (CVD) risk. Both processes can be assessed simply in the lower-limbs and reflect systemic pathology. However, only atherosclerosis is routinely assessed, typically via ankle-brachial index (ABI). Arteriosclerosis can be assessed using femoral-ankle pulse wave velocity (faPWV), but no studies have identified whether ABI and faPWV similarly associate with overt CVD and risk factors, nor whether faPWV confers additional information. The aims of this study were to (i) compare associations of ABI and faPWV with traditional CVD risk factors, including age, sex, systolic blood pressure (SBP), high-density lipoprotein (HDL), total cholesterol (TC), smoking, and diabetes; and (ii) determine the independent and additive associations of ABI and faPWV with a composite measure of prevalent CVD. METHODS We evaluated ABI and faPWV in 4330 older-aged (75.3 ± 5.0 years) adults using an oscillometric screening device. Associations between ABI and faPWV with CVD risk factors and CVD were determined using mixed-model linear- and logistic-regression. RESULTS ABI and faPWV were associated with age, HDL, and smoking. ABI was associated with sex, TC, diabetes. faPWV was associated with SBP. Both ABI and faPWV were inversely associated with CVD. Low ABI (≤0.9 vs. >0.9) and low faPWV (≤9.94 vs. >9.94) increased the odds of CVD by 2.41-fold (95% CI:1.85,3.17) and 1.46-fold (95% CI:1.23,1.74), respectively. The inverse association between faPWV and CVD was independent of ABI and CVD risk factors. CONCLUSIONS ABI and faPWV, measures of lower-limb atherosclerosis and arteriosclerosis, are independently associated with CVD risk factors and prevalent CVD. Assessment of faPWV may confer additional risk information beyond ABI.

Abstract
The goal of this review is to provide further understanding of increased vascular stiffness with aging, and how it contributes to the adverse effects of major human diseases. Differences in stiffness down the aortic tree are discussed, a topic requiring further research, because most prior work only examined one location in the aorta. It is also important to understand the divergent effects of increased aortic stiffness between males and females, principally due to the protective role of female sex hormones prior to menopause. Another goal is to review human and non-human primate data and contrast them with data in rodents. This is particularly important for understanding sex differences in vascular stiffness with aging as well as the changes in vascular stiffness before and after menopause in females, as this is controversial. This area of research necessitates studies in humans and non-human primates, since rodents do not go through menopause. The most important mechanism studied as a cause of age-related increases in vascular stiffness is an alteration in the vascular extracellular matrix resulting from an increase in collagen and decrease in elastin. However, there are other mechanisms mediating increased vascular stiffness, such as collagen and elastin disarray, calcium deposition, endothelial dysfunction, and the number of vascular smooth muscle cells (VSMCs). Populations with increased longevity, who live in areas called “Blue Zones,” are also discussed as they provide additional insights into mechanisms that protect against age-related increases in vascular stiffness. Such increases in vascular stiffness are important in mediating the adverse effects of major cardiovascular diseases, including atherosclerosis, hypertension and diabetes, but require further research into their mechanisms and treatment.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Previous studies proposed that chronic inflammation in diabetes has a role in abnormal collagen production and elastin degradation, which promotes arterial stiffness. Monocyte-to-High Density Lipoprotein cholesterol ratio (MHR) is a simple measurement associated with inflammation and oxidative stress. However, little is known about the relationship of MHR with arterial stiffness. This study aimed to determine the association of MHR with arterial stiffness in patients with diabetes. METHODS A total of 81 patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus were enrolled in a cross-sectional study. Arterial stiffness factor in this study was Cardio Ankle Vascular Index (CAVI). We analyzed complete blood count and lipid profile in all participants, then performed statistical analysis to determine the relationship between MHR and CAVI. Receiver operating characteristic (ROC) analysis was used to estimate the cut-off values of MHR to predict CAVI ≥ 9. RESULTS Median of MHR in this study was 11.91 with the mean of CAVI was 8.13 ± 0.93. Spearman correlation analysis revealed a significant positive correlation between MHR and CAVI (ρ = 0.239, p = 0.031). Multivariate analysis showed the independent association of MHR to arterial stiffness (β = 0.361, 95% CI 0.023-0.093) and to CAVI ≥ 9 (OR 1.181, 95% CI 1.047-1.332). The cut-off values of MHR for predicting CAVI ≥ 9 were identified as ≥ 13 (OR 3.289, 95% CI 1.036-10.441). CONCLUSION MHR is associated with CAVI in patients with diabetes, irrespective of various potential confounders.

Arterial Stiffness: Its Relation with Prediabetes and Metabolic Syndrome and Possible Pathogenesis. J Clin Med 2021; 10:jcm10153251. [PMID: 34362033 PMCID: PMC8348675 DOI: 10.3390/jcm10153251] [Citation(s) in RCA: 5] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.7] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/30/2021] [Revised: 07/01/2021] [Accepted: 07/21/2021] [Indexed: 11/26/2022] Open
Abstract
Aims: To evaluate arterial stiffness indicators in people with prediabetes (PreD) and its possible pathogenesis. Materials and methods: Pulse wave velocity (PWV) was measured in 208 people with FINDRISC ≥ 13 (57 ± 8 years old, 68.7% women) and thereafter divided into those having either normal glucose tolerance (NGT) or PreD. In each subgroup we also identified those with/out insulin resistance (IR) measured by the triglyceride/HDL-c ratio (normal cut off values previously established in our population). Clinical and metabolic data were collected for all participants. PWV was compared between subgroups using independent t test. Results: Women and men had comparable clinical and metabolic characteristics with obesity (BMI ≥ 30) and antihypertensive-statin treatment, almost half with either NGT or PreD. Whereas 48% of NGT people presented IR (abnormally high TG/HDL-c ratio), 52% had PreD. PWV was significantly higher only in those with a complete picture of metabolic syndrome (MS). Conclusions: Since PWV was significantly impaired in people with a complete picture of MS, clinicians must carefully search for early diagnosis of this condition and prescribe a healthy life-style to prevent development/progression of CVD. This proactive attitude would provide a cost-effective preventive strategy to avoid CVD’s negative impact on patients’ quality of life and on health systems due to their higher care costs.

Abstract
BACKGROUND AND AIMS Previous studies had shed a new light on the importance of multiple inflammatory mechanisms in the pathogenesis of arterial stiffness. The dietary inflammatory index (DII®) is a new tool for estimating the overall inflammatory potential of the diet. The aim of this study is to assess the association of the inflammatory potential of diet with peripheral arterial stiffness and renal function in women with diabetes and prediabetes. METHODS AND RESULTS This is an observational cross-sectional study. A total of 2644 females aged 45-75 years were included for the study. Dietary intake in the past 12 months was assessed by a validated China National Nutrition and Health Survey 2002 (CNHS2002) food-frequency questionnaire. Energy-adjusted DII (E-DII) scores were calculated from daily dietary information. In a multivariable linear regression analysis adjusted for potential confounders, E-DII was positively associated with brachial ankle pulse wave velocity (baPWV) in participants with diabetes (β = 12.820; 95% CI = 2.565, 23.076; P = 0.014) and prediabetes (β = 29.025; 95% CI = 1.110, 56.940; P = 0.042), but not in females with normal glucose homeostasis. In addition, per unit increase of E-DII was significantly associated with lower eGFR (β = -1.363; 95% CI = -2.335, -0.392; P = 0.006) in patients with diabetes. CONCLUSION We identified a direct association between E-DII and arterial stiffness, decreasedeGFR in middle-aged and elderly women with diabetes or prediabetes. Future studies are needed to verify and clarify the role of E-DII as an intervention target for cardiorenal complications of chronic hyperglycemia.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The aortic to femoral arterial stiffness gradient (af-SG) may be a novel measure of arterial health and cardiovascular disease (CVD) risk, but its association with CVD risk factors and CVD status, and whether or not they differ from the referent measure, carotid-femoral pulse-wave velocity (cfPWV), is not known. METHOD Accordingly, we compared the associations of the af-SG and cfPWV with (i) age and traditional CVD risk factors and (ii) CVD status. We evaluated 4183 older-aged (75.2 ± 5.0 years) men and women in the community-based Atherosclerosis Risk in Communities (ARIC) Study. cfPWV and femoral-ankle PWV (faPWV) were measured using an automated cardiovascular screening device. The af-SG was calculated as faPWV divided by cfPWV. Associations of af-SG and cfPWV with age, CVD risk factors (age, BMI, blood pressure, heart rate, glucose and blood lipid levels) and CVD status (hypertension, diabetes, coronary heart disease, heart failure, stroke) were determined using linear and logistic regression analyses. RESULTS (i) the af-SG and cfPWV demonstrated comparable associations with age and CVD risk factors, except BMI. (ii) a low af-SG was associated with diabetes, coronary heart disease, heart failure and stroke, whilst a high cfPWV was only associated with diabetes. CONCLUSION Although future studies are necessary to confirm clinical utility, the af-SG is a promising tool that may provide a unique picture of hemodynamic integration and identification of CVD risk when compared with cfPWV.

Abstract
Even though the new thresholds for defining prediabetes have been around for more than ten years, there is still controversy surrounding the precise characterization of this intermediate glucose metabolism status. The risk of developing diabetes and macro and microvascular disease linked to prediabetes is well known. Still, the prediabetic population is far from being homogenous, and phenotyping it into less heterogeneous groups might prove useful for long-term risk assessment, follow-up, and primary prevention. Unfortunately, the current definition of prediabetes is quite rigid and disregards the underlying pathophysiologic mechanisms and their potential metabolic progression towards overt disease. In addition, prediabetes is commonly associated with a cluster of risk factors that worsen the prognosis. These risk factors all revolve around a common denominator: inflammation. This review focuses on identifying the population that needs to be screened for prediabetes and the already declared prediabetic patients who are at a higher risk of cardiovascular disease and require closer monitoring.

Brachial-ankle pulse wave velocity and cardio-ankle vascular index are associated with future cardiovascular events in a general population: The Nagahama Study. J Clin Hypertens (Greenwich) 2021; 23:1390-1398. [PMID: 34041835 PMCID: PMC8678776 DOI: 10.1111/jch.14294] [Citation(s) in RCA: 6] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/11/2021] [Revised: 04/24/2021] [Accepted: 05/07/2021] [Indexed: 11/27/2022]
Abstract
Faster pulse wave velocity (PWV) is known to be associated with the incidence of cardiovascular diseases (CVD). The aim of this study was to clarify the hypothesis that PWV may be associated with future CVD events even when its time-dependent changes were adjusted. We also investigated a prognostic significance of cardio-ankle vascular index, another index of arterial stiffness. Study participants included 8850 community residents. The repeated measures of the clinical parameters at 5.0 years after the baseline were available for 7249 of the participants. PWV was calculated using the arterial waveforms measured at the brachia and ankles (baPWV). The cardio-ankle vascular index was calculated by estimated pulse transit time from aortic valve to tibial artery. During the 8.53 years follow-up period, we observed 215 cases of CVD. The incidence rate increased linearly with baPWV quartiles (per 10 000 person-years: Q1, 2.7; Q2, 12.6; Q3, 22.5; Q4, 76.2), and the highest quartile was identified as an independent determinant of incident CVD by conventional Cox proportional hazard analysis adjusted for known risk factors [hazard ratio (HR), 4.00; p = .007]. Per unit HR of baPWV (HR, 1.15; p < .001) remained significant in the time-dependent Cox regression analysis including baPWV and other clinical values measured at 5-year after the baseline as time-varying variables (HR, 1.14; p < .001). The cardio-ankle vascular index was also associated with CVD with similar manner though the associations were less clear than that of baPWV. baPWV is a good risk marker for the incidence of CVD.

Cytomegalovirus infection is associated with an increase in aortic stiffness in older men which may be mediated in part by CD4 memory T-cells. Theranostics 2021; 11:5728-5741. [PMID: 33897878 PMCID: PMC8058738 DOI: 10.7150/thno.58356] [Citation(s) in RCA: 7] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/18/2021] [Accepted: 03/07/2021] [Indexed: 12/31/2022] Open
Abstract
Human Cytomegalovirus (CMV) infection is associated with atherosclerosis, higher cardiovascular disease (CVD) risk, and an increase in memory T-cells (Tmem). T-cells have also been implicated in CVD, independently of CMV infection. To better understand the CMV-associated CVD risk, we examined the association between CMV (IgG) serostatus and central aortic (carotid-to-femoral) pulse wave velocity (cfPWV), an early, independent predictor of CVD. We also investigated if such an association might be reflected by the distribution of Tmem and/or other T-cell subsets. Methods: Healthy older volunteers (60-93 years) underwent routine clinical and laboratory evaluation, including assessment of cfPWV in eligible participants. Flow-cytometry was used to assess proportions of memory T-cells, CD28null T-cells, and CMV-specific T-cells. The following associations were examined; CMV serostatus/cfPWV, CMV serostatus/proportion of Tmem, proportion of Tmem/cfPWV, CD28null T-cells/cfPWV, and CMV-specific T-cells/cfPWV. Linear regression models were used to adjust for age, sex, socioeconomic status, smoking, waist-to-hip ratio, cholesterol, and blood pressure as required. Results: Statistically significant positive associations were found (P-values for the fully adjusted models are given); CMV serostatus/cfPWV in men (P ≤ 0.01) but not in women, CMV serostatus/proportions of CD4 Tmem in men (P ≤ 0.05) but not in women; proportions of CD4 Tmem/cfPWV among CMV seropositive (CMV+) people (P ≤ 0.05) but not CMV seronegative (CMV-) people. Conclusion: CMV infection increases the CVD risk of older men by increasing cfPWV. This may be mediated in part by increased proportions of CD4 Tmem, higher numbers of which are found in CMV+ older people and more so among men than women. Given the high prevalence of CMV worldwide, our findings point to a significant global health issue. Novel strategies to mitigate the increased CVD risk associated with CMV may be required.

Arterial Stiffness and Cardiometabolic-Based Chronic Disease: The Kardiovize Study. Endocr Pract 2021; 27:571-578. [PMID: 33722731 DOI: 10.1016/j.eprac.2021.03.004] [Citation(s) in RCA: 2] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.7] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/17/2020] [Revised: 02/23/2021] [Accepted: 03/02/2021] [Indexed: 02/07/2023]
Abstract
OBJECTIVE Arterial stiffness (ArSt) describes a loss of arterial wall elasticity and is an independent predictor of cardiovascular events. A cardiometabolic-based chronic disease model integrates concepts of adiposity-based chronic disease (ABCD), dysglycemia-based chronic disease (DBCD), and cardiovascular disease. We assessed if ABCD and DBCD models detect more people with high ArSt compared with traditional adiposity and dysglycemia classifiers using the cardio-ankle vascular index (CAVI). METHODS We evaluated 2070 subjects aged 25 to 64 years from a random population-based sample. Those with type 1 diabetes were excluded. ABCD and DBCD were defined, and ArSt risk was stratified based on the American Association of Clinical Endocrinologists criteria. RESULTS The highest prevalence of a high CAVI was in stage 2 ABCD (18.5%) and stage 4 DBCD (31.8%), and the lowest prevalence was in stage 0 ABCD (2.2%). In univariate analysis, stage 2 ABCD and all DBCD stages increased the risk of having a high CAVI compared with traditional classifiers. After adjusting for age and gender, only an inverse association between obesity (body mass index ≥30 kg/m2) and CAVI remained significant. Nevertheless, body mass index was responsible for only 0.3% of CAVI variability. CONCLUSION The ABCD and DBCD models showed better performance than traditional classifiers to detect subjects with ArSt; however, the variables were not independently associated with age and gender, which might be explained by the complexity and multifactoriality of the relationship of CAVI with the ABCD and DBCD models, mediated by insulin resistance.

The effect of oral glucose tolerance testing on changes in arterial stiffness and blood pressure in elderly women with hypertension and relationships between the stage of diabetes and physical fitness levels. Phys Act Nutr 2021; 24:34-43. [PMID: 33539693 PMCID: PMC7934524 DOI: 10.20463/pan.2020.0026] [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: 12/22/2020] [Accepted: 12/30/2020] [Indexed: 11/23/2022] Open
Abstract
[Purpose] The purpose of this study was to assess changes in blood glucose level, blood pressure, and arterial stiffness after a 75 g oral glucose tolerance test (OGTT) in elderly women aged over 65 years with hypertension and either normal glycemic control, impaired fasting glucose tolerance, or diabetes mellitus. We also wished to investigate the relationship between stages of diabetes and physical fitness. [Methods] A total of 24 elderly women with hypertension were assigned to a control group (CON; n=7), impaired fasting glucose group (IFG; n=9), and diabetes mellitus group (DM; n=8). In each group, blood glucose level, brachial ankle pulse wave velocity (PWV), and blood pressure were measured at baseline as well as 60 and 120 minutes after a 75 g OGTT. Physical fitness factors such as hand grip strength, balance test, 4 m gait speed test, chair stand test, short physical performance battery, and 6-minute walking test were subsequently assessed. [Results] In all three groups, blood glucose levels were significantly increased at 60 and 120 minutes after a 75 g OGTT. In the DM group, blood glucose levels were significantly higher before and after a 75 g OGTT than in the CON group. In the CON group, PWV was significantly increased at 60 minutes after a 75 g OGTT; however, there were no changes in other groups after glucose ingestion. In the CON group, systolic and diastolic blood pressures were significantly decreased at 60 and 120 minutes after a 75 g OGTT compared to baseline. However, there was no change in blood pressure after ingestion in the DM group. The IFG group had greater grip strength than the CON group; however, there were no differences in other variables between the groups. [Conclusion] After a 75 g OGTT, elderly women with hypertension and diabetes maintain higher blood glucose levels compared to those with hypertension alone. Unlike elderly women with hypertension alone, those with hypertension and diabetes did not show changes in arterial stiffness and blood pressure after a 75 g OGTT. Therefore, elderly women with hypertension and diabetes may not be able to control their blood vessels following a 75 g OGTT due to impaired vascular endothelial function. Moreover, there was no association between diabetes stage and physical fitness in elderly women with hypertension.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Diabetes was regarded as an independent risk factor for abnormal left heart remodeling. However, there was lacking population-based data on the relationship of glucose status with left ventricular hypertrophy (LVH) or left atrial enlargement (LAE). This study intended to clarify the influence of diabetes and prediabetes on the prevalence and incidence of LVH and LAE based on a northeast rural population of China. METHODS We analyzed clinical, laboratory and echocardiographic data of a total of 2824 participants aged over 35 years from a population-based prospective cohort NCRCHS study with 2 years of follow-up, which was carried out in rural areas of northeast China. All measurements were performed according to standardized protocols. RESULTS There were 2179 controls, 342 subjects with prediabetes and 303 ones with diabetes. The baseline distribution of LAD, IVSd, LVIDd, LVIDs, LVMI, E wave, A wave, E/A, E/e', diastolic dysfunction, LVEDV, LVESV and SV was significantly different among three groups (all Ptrend<0.05). After the adjustment for age, gender, BMI, waist circumference, heart rate, hypertension and dyslipidemia, glucose status remained associated with LVIDd and E/e' (all P < 0.05). At baseline, diabetes was independently related to the prevalence of LVH (OR = 1.53; 95%CI = 1.12-2.10; P < 0.01) and LAE (OR = 1.71; 95%CI = 1.19-2.43; P < 0.01) in the overall population, and the same significant results were also found in gender specific subgroups. During the 2-year follow-up, Cox regression models revealed that baseline diabetes had an independent association with the incidence of LAE in the total subjects (HR = 1.83; 95%CI = 1.10-3.06; P = 0.02) and females (HR = 1.90; 95%CI = 1.05-3.46; P = 0.04) after adjusting the potential confounders. CONCLUSION Diabetes, but not prediabetes, is an independent predictor for the prevalence of LVH and LAE, and for the new-onset LAE, it should be considered in the assessment of diabetes and cardiac structural remodeling.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The association between triglyceride-rich lipoprotein cholesterol (TRL-C) and diabetes mellitus (DM) remains unclear because of limited research and data. The aim of this study was to explore the independent association between TRL-C and DM in hypertensive patients and to examine whether a healthy lifestyle would have an impact on this relationship. METHODS In this study, data from 13,721 hypertensive patients who were not treated with lipid-lowering drugs were analyzed. TRL-C was calculated from total cholesterol (TC) minus [LDL cholesterol + HDL cholesterol]. DM was defined as fasting plasma glucose of ≥7.0 mmol/L and/or self-reported history of hypoglycemic drug use. RESULTS After adjusting for potential confounding factors, the TRL-C was significantly positively associated with elevated DM (odds ratio (OR): 1.73 and 95% confidence interval (CI): 1.54-1.94). In subgroup analysis, a healthy lifestyle (HL) failed to modify the positive association between TRL-C and DM (HL: OR 1.93, 95%CI 1.58-2.36; non-HL: OR 1.72, 95%CI 1.50-1.98; P for interaction = 0.38). CONCLUSION The results showed a positive association between TRL-C and DM in hypertensive patients. A healthy lifestyle failed to diminish the relationship between TRL-C and DM. The novel findings indicate that TRL-C might be a reliable marker of DM and may provide a new strategy for the prevention and treatment of DM.

The association of subclinical atherosclerosis with prediabetes is stronger in people with dyslipidaemia than in those with normoglycaemia: A cross-sectional study in Chinese adults. Prim Care Diabetes 2020; 14:760-767. [PMID: 32739221 DOI: 10.1016/j.pcd.2020.07.007] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/08/2020] [Revised: 06/08/2020] [Accepted: 07/16/2020] [Indexed: 02/02/2023]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Prediabetes is associated with a high risk of cardiovascular disease (CVD) and often occurs with dyslipidaemia. The present study investigated the association between subclinical atherosclerosis profiles and prediabetes with and without dyslipidaemia. METHODS This cross-sectional analysis included 4786 participants (1441 subjects with prediabetes and 3345 healthy controls). Prediabetes was defined by fasting plasma glucose (FPG) 5.6-6.9mmol/L or HbA1c 5.7-6.4% without antidiabetic drugs. Different markers of subclinical atherosclerosis were analysed: the carotid intima-media thickness (CIMT), carotid plaques (CP), and brachial-ankle pulse wave velocity (baPWV). RESULTS Subclinical atherosclerosis was significantly more prevalent in prediabetic subjects than in normoglycaemic subjects (P<0.001). Only individuals with prediabetes in the dyslipidaemic group had significantly elevated adjusted odds ratios for subclinical atherosclerosis profiles. When stratified by FPG-only, HbA1c-only or both, the three subcategories in combination with dyslipidaemia shared a similarly increased risk of subclinical atherosclerosis compared to normoglycaemia without dyslipidaemia (P<0.05). The risk profile increased directionally from FPG-only to HbA1c-only to both overall. CONCLUSION Our data suggest that subclinical atherosclerotic changes in the prediabetic state are mainly seen in dyslipidaemic subjects. Thus, strategies to prevent atherogenic changes might focus on persons with prediabetes combined with dyslipidaemia, especially for the prediabetes-both subcategory, because of potential effects on CVD risk.

Abstract
In recent studies, vibration-controlled transient elastography (FibroScan) has been reported as an alternative noninvasive approach for measuring liver steatosis and fibrosis. The present study aimed to investigate the feasibility of FibroScan controlled attenuation parameter (CAP) and liver stiffness measurement (LSM) in the detection of increased arterial stiffness in asymptomatic populations in China.A retrospective cohort recruiting 4747 asymptomatic patients with no underlying causes of liver disease and having FibroScan and brachial-ankle pulse wave velocity (baPWV) during wellness check-up was covered. Nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) was defined as a CAP ≥238 dB/m. NAFLD with significant fibrosis was defined as an LSM ≥7.3 kPa in the presence of NAFLD. Increased arterial stiffness was determined as a BaPWV ≥1.4m/second.Among the 4747 study participants, 1596 subjects (33.6%) suffered from increased arterial stiffness. The prevalence of increased arterial stiffness progressively increased across CAP quartiles and LSM quartiles in NAFLD (23.5%, 30.8%, 38.3%, 43.7%, P < .001 and 33.1%, 36.8%, 40.4%, 48.2%, P < .001, respectively). After conventional cardiovascular risk factors were adjusted (age, sex, overweight, diabetes mellitus, hypertension, hypercholesterolemia, and current smoking habits), multivariate logistic regression analysis revealed that CAP (odd ratio [OR] = 1.005; 95% confidence interval [CI]: 1.003-1.006; P < .001), NAFLD (OR = 1.427; 95% CI: 1.212-1.681; P < .001), LSM in NAFLD (OR = 1.073; 95% CI: 1.023-1.125; P = .003), and significant fibrosis in NAFLD (OR = 1.480; 95% CI: 1.090-2.010; P = .012) were independently associated with increased arterial stiffness. Furthermore, in a multivariate logistic regression analysis, OR (95% CI) for the maximal vs. the minimal quartile of CAP was 1.602 (1.268-2.024), and that of LSM in NAFLD was 1.362 (1.034-1.792) after adjustment for the above-mentioned risk factors. Notably, NAFLD and significant fibrosis in NAFLD were significantly correlated only with increased arterial stiffness in subjects without hypertension or diabetes mellitus after adjustment for the above-mentioned risk factors.CAP-defined NAFLD and LSM-defined significant fibrosis in NAFLD showed significant and independent relationships with increased arterial stiffness even after adjustment for conventional cardiovascular risk factors, which can be conducive to stratifying relative risk of subjects having undergone screening assessment for cardiovascular disease.

Abstract
RATIONALE Previous studies on the relationship between diabetes and arterial stiffness were mostly cross-sectional. A few longitudinal studies focused on one single direction. Whether the association between arterial stiffness and diabetes is bidirectional remains unclear to date. OBJECTIVE To explore the temporal relationship between arterial stiffness and fasting blood glucose (FBG) status. METHODS AND RESULTS Included were 14 159 participants of the Kailuan study with assessment of brachial-ankle pulse wave velocity (baPWV) from 2010 to 2015, and free of diabetes, cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases, and chronic kidney disease at baseline. FBG and baPWV were repeatedly measured at baseline and follow-ups. Cox proportional hazard regression model was used to estimate hazard ratios and 95% confidence intervals (CIs) of incident diabetes across baseline baPWV groups: <1400 cm/s (ref), 1400≤ baPWV <1800 cm/s, and ≥1800 cm/s. Path analysis was used to analyze the possible temporal causal relationship between baPWV and FBG, among 8956 participants with repeated assessment of baPWV and FBG twice in 2010 to 2017. The mean baseline age of the observed population was 48.3±12.0 years. During mean 3.72 years of follow-up, 979 incident diabetes cases were identified. After adjusting for potential confounders, the hazard ratio (95% CI) for risk of diabetes was 1.59 (1.34-1.88) for the borderline arterial stiffness group and 2.11 (1.71-2.61) for the elevated arterial stiffness group, compared with the normal ideal arterial stiffness group. In the path analysis, baseline baPWV was associated with follow-up FBG (the standard regression coefficient was 0.09 [95% CI, 0.05-0.10]). In contrast, the standard regression coefficient of baseline FBG for follow-up baPWV (β=0.00 [95% CI, -0.02 to 0.02]) was not significant. CONCLUSIONS Arterial stiffness, as measured by baPWV, was associated with risk of developing diabetes. Arterial stiffness appeared to precede the increase in FBG.

Abstract
BACKGROUND AND AIM Helicobacter pylori (H. pylori) is closely associated with pre-neoplastic lesions such as atrophic gastritis (AG) and gastric intestinal metaplasia (GIM). The relationshionship between inflammation, hyperhomocysteinemia and arterial stiffness is of pathophysiological relevance for the development of cardiovascular disease. This study aimed to investigate the relationship between vitamin B12, folic acid, homocysteine (Hcy) and pulse wave velocity (PWV) levels in patients with GIM, AG and non-atrophic non-metaplastic chronic gastritis. PATIENTS AND METHODS ninety-seven patients with GIM, 67 patients with AG and 69 patients with chronic gastritis were included in the study. Glucose, creatinine, total cholesterol, triglyceride, low-density lipoprotein, cholesterol, high-density lipoprotein cholesterol, vitamin B12, folic acid and Hcy levels were measured by biochemical methods. PWV and other vascular parameters were measured using the Phsyio-port AS device. MAIN RESULTS PWV was higher in patients with GIM and AG than in controls (p < 0.05 and p < 0.05, respectively). Vitamin B12 levels were significantly lower in patients with GIM and AG than in controls (p < 0.01 and p < 0.01, respectively). Folic acid levels were significantly lower in patients with GIM than in controls (p < 0.05). Hcy levels were significantly higher in patients with GIM and AG than in controls (p < 0.001 and p < 0.05, respectively). A logistic regression analysis showed that GIM, AG and vitamin B12 deficiency were predictors for arterial stiffness. CONCLUSIONS PWV values increased in patients with GIM and AG compared to non-atrophic non-metaplastic chronic gastritis, without different conventional cardiovascular risk factors.

Abstract
Aim To evaluate effects of different types of combination drug therapy on indexes of 24-h blood pressure monitoring (24-h BPM), arterial stiffness, and central aortic pressure (CAP) in patients with arterial hypertension (AH) and prediabetes.Materials and methods The study included 120 patients with AH and prediabetes. After randomization using envelopes, three treatment groups were formed: group 1, patients receiving perindopril, indapamide SR, and metformin (n=40); group 2, patients receiving perindopril, moxonidin, and metformin (n=40); and group 3, patients receiving perindopril, indapamide SR, and amlodipine (n=40). 24-h BPM, determination of arterial stiffness, and measurement of CAP were performed for all patients.Results After 24 weeks of treatment, patients of all groups showed statistically significant improvements of most indexes of 24-h BPM, arterial stiffness, and CAP. In groups 2 and 3, the treatment was associated with significantly more pronounced beneficial changes in 24-BPM, arterial stiffness, and CAP compared to group 1. Antihypertensive and vasoprotective effects of the perindopril+moxonidin+metformin and perindopril+indopamide SR+amlodipine combinations were comparable.Conclusion The observed statistically significant antihypertensive and vasoprotective effects of the perindopril+moxonidin+metformin combination along with its known positive metabolic effect allow recommendation of this combination therapy to patients with AH and prediabetes as an effective strategy for BP control.

Abstract
Type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) constitutes a global pandemic, representing the 7th cause of death worldwide. Morbidity and mortality of patients with T2DM are gradually increasing, while prevalence of cardiovascular disease (CVD) among these patients is almost 14% greater compared to the general population. Arterial stiffness is nowadays a valuable biomarker of CVD and a promising treatment target in specific patient groups, including those suffering from T2DM. Despite that fact, design of the available studies cannot prove causal relationship. Recently, a new antidiabetic drug class, namely sodium-glucose co-transporter-2 (SGLT-2) inhibitors, has attracted scientific interest, due to their multiple, beneficial, pleiotropic effects, especially those focused on CVD. There is limited relevant literature concerning the effects of SGLT-2 inhibitors on arterial stiffness, while retrieved results might be considered as conflicting. The aim of the present review article is to summarize acquired knowledge regarding the prognostic role of arterial stiffness in T2DM, along with the presentation of retrieved data on the potential role of SGLT-2 inhibitors.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The American Heart Association, in conjunction with the National Institutes of Health, annually reports on the most up-to-date statistics related to heart disease, stroke, and cardiovascular risk factors, including core health behaviors (smoking, physical activity, diet, and weight) and health factors (cholesterol, blood pressure, and glucose control) that contribute to cardiovascular health. The Statistical Update presents the latest data on a range of major clinical heart and circulatory disease conditions (including stroke, congenital heart disease, rhythm disorders, subclinical atherosclerosis, coronary heart disease, heart failure, valvular disease, venous disease, and peripheral artery disease) and the associated outcomes (including quality of care, procedures, and economic costs). METHODS The American Heart Association, through its Statistics Committee, continuously monitors and evaluates sources of data on heart disease and stroke in the United States to provide the most current information available in the annual Statistical Update. The 2020 Statistical Update is the product of a full year's worth of effort by dedicated volunteer clinicians and scientists, committed government professionals, and American Heart Association staff members. This year's edition includes data on the monitoring and benefits of cardiovascular health in the population, metrics to assess and monitor healthy diets, an enhanced focus on social determinants of health, a focus on the global burden of cardiovascular disease, and further evidence-based approaches to changing behaviors, implementation strategies, and implications of the American Heart Association's 2020 Impact Goals. RESULTS Each of the 26 chapters in the Statistical Update focuses on a different topic related to heart disease and stroke statistics. CONCLUSIONS The Statistical Update represents a critical resource for the lay public, policy makers, media professionals, clinicians, healthcare administrators, researchers, health advocates, and others seeking the best available data on these factors and conditions.

Abstract
Background Insulin resistance may contribute to aortic stiffening that leads to end-organ damage. We examined the cross-sectional association and prospective association of insulin resistance and aortic stiffness in older adults without diabetes. Methods We analyzed 2571 men and women at Visit 5 (in 2011–2013), and 2350 men and women at repeat examinations from baseline at Visit 1 (in 1987–1989) to Visit 5 (in 2011–2013). Linear regression was used to estimate the difference in aortic stiffness per standard unit of HOMA-IR, TG/HDL-C, and TyG at Visit 5. Linear mixed effects were used to assess if high, as opposed to non-high, aortic stiffness (> 75th percentile) was preceded by a faster annual rate of change in log-HOMA-IR, log-TG/HDL-C, and log-TyG from Visit 1 to Visit 5. Results The mean age of participants was 75 years, 37% (n = 957) were men, and 17% (n = 433) were African American. At Visit 5, higher HOMA-IR, higher TG/HDL-C, and higher TyG were associated with higher aortic stiffness (16 cm/s per SD (95% CI 6, 27), 29 cm/s per SD (95% CI 18, 40), and 32 cm/s per SD (95% CI 22, 42), respectively). From Visit 1 to Visit 5, high aortic stiffness, compared to non-high aortic stiffness, was not preceded by a faster annual rate of change in log-HOMA-IR from baseline to 9 years (0.030 (95% CI 0.024, 0.035) vs. 0.025 (95% CI 0.021, 0.028); p = 0.15) or 9 years onward (0.011 (95% CI 0.007, 0.015) vs. 0.011 (95% CI 0.009, 0.013); p = 0.31); in log-TG/HDL-C from baseline to 9 years (0.019 (95% CI 0.015, 0.024) vs. 0.024 (95% CI 0.022, 0.026); p = 0.06) or 9 years onward (− 0.007 (95% CI − 0.010, − 0.005) vs. − 0.009 (95% CI − 0.010, − 0.007); p = 0.08); or in log-TyG from baseline to 9 years (0.002 (95% CI 0.002, 0.003) vs. 0.003 (95% CI 0.003, 0.003); p = 0.03) or 9 years onward (0 (95% CI 0, 0) vs. 0 (95% CI 0, 0); p = 0.08). Conclusions Among older adults without diabetes, insulin resistance was associated with aortic stiffness, but the putative role of insulin resistance in aortic stiffness over the life course requires further study.

Abstract
Aim: The aim of the present study was to investigate the prevalence of macrovascular complications across different carbohydrate disturbances. Patients and methods: In the study, we included 167 patients, divided them into three age and BMI matched groups - group 1 with obesity without carbohydrate disturbances (n = 66), group 2 with prediabetes (n = 68) and group 3 with newly diagnosed type 2 diabetes (n = 33). Endothelial function was evaluated using EndoPAT, intima media thickness (IMT) was measured on the common carotid artery and ankle-brachial index (ABI) was calculated. Results: The patients with T2D had significantly higher mean IMT than the other two groups. The best predictors of increased IMT were fasting blood glucose followed by age and SBP. ROC-analysis showed that blood glucose on 60 min of OGTT had a very good predictive value for endothelial dysfunction. Conclusions: Patients with newly diagnosed diabetes have increased IMT and a tendency towards higher ABI compared to normoglycemic and prediabetic subjects.

Abstract
Obesity and insulin resistance stiffen the vasculature, with females appearing to be more adversely affected. As augmented arterial stiffness is an independent predictor of cardiovascular disease (CVD), the increased predisposition of women with obesity and insulin resistance to arterial stiffening may explain their heightened risk for CVD. However, the cellular mechanisms by which females are more vulnerable to arterial stiffening associated with obesity and insulin resistance remain largely unknown. In this study, we provide evidence that female mice are more susceptible to Western diet-induced endothelial cell stiffening compared with age-matched males. Mechanistically, we show that the increased stiffening of the vascular intima in Western diet-fed female mice is accompanied by enhanced epithelial sodium channel (ENaC) activity in endothelial cells (EnNaC). Our data further indicate that: (i) estrogen signaling through estrogen receptor α (ERα) increases EnNaC activity to a larger extent in females compared with males, (ii) estrogen-induced activation of EnNaC is mediated by the serum/glucocorticoid inducible kinase 1 (SGK-1), and (iii) estrogen signaling stiffens endothelial cells when nitric oxide is lacking and this stiffening effect can be reduced with amiloride, an ENaC inhibitor. In aggregate, we demonstrate a sexual dimorphism in obesity-associated endothelial stiffening, whereby females are more vulnerable than males. In females, endothelial stiffening with obesity may be attributed to estrogen signaling through the ERα-SGK-1-EnNaC axis, thus establishing a putative therapeutic target for female obesity-related vascular stiffening.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Mortality attributable to heart failure remains high. The prevalence of heart failure in patients with diabetes mellitus ranges from 19 to 26%. It is estimated that up to 21.1 million adults in the United States have diagnosed diabetes mellitus and around 80.8 million have impaired fasting glucose. We investigated the associations of fasting glucose (FG) and fasting insulin (FI), the homeostasis model assessment-insulin resistance index (HOMA-IR) and 2-h postload glucose (2HG) and insulin (2HI) with parameters of left ventricular geometry and function and arterial stiffness determined by magnetic resonance imaging in individuals without diagnosed type 2 diabetes. METHODS Cross-sectional analyses of 1001 individuals (453 women, 45.3%), aged 21 to 80 years, from two independent population-based studies, the Study of Health in Pomerania (SHIP-TREND-0) and KORA FF4 Study. FG, FI, HOMA-IR, 2HG and 2HI, as well as glucose tolerance categories, were analyzed for associations with heart and arterial parameters using multivariable-adjusted linear regression models. RESULTS In total, 390 individuals (39%) had prediabetes (isolated impaired fasting glucose, isolated glucose tolerance or both), and 49 (4.9%) were found to have unknown type 2 diabetes. In the multivariable-adjusted analysis, positive linear associations of FG, FI, HOMA-IR, 2HG and 2HI with arterial stiffness index and left ventricular wall-thickness and concentricity and inverse linear associations with left ventricular end-diastolic volume were observed. A 1 mmol/l higher FG was associated with a 1.18 ml/m2.7 (1.80 to 0.57; p < 0.001) lower left ventricular end-diastolic volume index, a 0.042 mm/m2.7 (0.014 to 0.070) higher left ventricular wall-thickness index, a 0.12 mmHg m2.7/ml (0.06 to 0.17; p < 0.001) greater arterial stiffness index and a 0.037 g/ml (0.018 to 0.056; p < 0.001) higher left ventricular concentricity. CONCLUSIONS Our findings suggest that higher glucose levels in the prediabetic range and insulin resistance might lead to higher arterial stiffness and concentric remodeling of the heart.

Association between ideal cardiovascular health score trajectories and arterial stiffness: the Kailuan Study. Hypertens Res 2019; 43:140-147. [PMID: 31666712 DOI: 10.1038/s41440-019-0341-4] [Citation(s) in RCA: 18] [Impact Index Per Article: 3.6] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/02/2019] [Revised: 08/20/2019] [Accepted: 09/18/2019] [Indexed: 01/10/2023]
Abstract
Some studies have shown that a higher ideal cardiovascular health score (CVHS) predicts a lower incidence of arterial stiffness. Few studies have used multiple measurements of CVHS to examine the impact of CVHS on arterial stiffness. The current study aimed to identify the long-term patterns in CVHS trajectory and to explore the association between CVHS trajectory and arterial stiffness. The study cohort consisted of 18,854 participants from the Kailuan Study who were followed up for five physical examinations over 8.10 years. Five discrete CVHS trajectories were identified among the participants: low-stable (8.10%), low-moderate (6.84%), moderate-low (23.46%), moderate-stable (39.83%), and elevated-stable (21.77%). After adjustment for confounding factors, generalized linear model analysis showed that CVHS trajectory group correlated negatively with brachial-ankle pulse wave velocity (baPWV). Compared with the low-stable group, the low-moderate group, moderate-low group, moderate-stable group, and elevated-stable group had B values of -41.81, -24.11, -86.79, and -169.54, respectively. We also used logistic regression to calculate odds ratios (ORs) and 95% confidence intervals (CIs) for CVHS trajectory groups and arterial stiffness. In fully adjusted models, ORs were 0.76 (95% CI: 0.62-0.94) for the low-moderate group, 0.80 (95% CI: 0.67-0.97) for the moderate-low group, 0.51 (95% CI: 0.42-0.62) for the moderate-stable group, and 0.23 (95% CI: 0.18-0.29) for the elevated-stable group compared with the low-stable group. The results were consistent across a number of sensitivity analyses. In conclusion, the higher long-term attainment and the improvement of CVHS were negatively associated with baPWV and could reduce the risk of arterial stiffness. Our study emphasizes the importance of optimizing CVH throughout life to prevent the incidence of arterial stiffness.

Positive association between baseline brachial-ankle pulse wave velocity and the risk of new-onset diabetes in hypertensive patients. Cardiovasc Diabetol 2019; 18:111. [PMID: 31462258 PMCID: PMC6714437 DOI: 10.1186/s12933-019-0915-0] [Citation(s) in RCA: 22] [Impact Index Per Article: 4.4] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/05/2019] [Accepted: 08/19/2019] [Indexed: 12/14/2022] Open
Abstract
Background There is no clearly defined temporal relationship between arterial stiffness and diabetes. We aimed to investigate the prospective association between baseline brachial–ankle pulse wave velocity (baPWV) and the risk of new-onset diabetes during follow-up, and examined whether there were effect modifiers, in hypertensive patients. Methods We included 2429 hypertensive patients with all the pertinent data but without diabetes at the baseline, who were part of the China Stroke Primary Prevention Trial (CSPPT), a randomized, double-blind, actively controlled trial conducted in 32 communities in Anhui and Jiangsu provinces in China. The primary outcome was new-onset diabetes, defined as physician-diagnosed diabetes or use of glucose-lowering drugs during follow-up, or fasting glucose (FG) ≥ 126.0 mg/dL at the exit visit. Results During a median follow-up duration of 4.5 years, 287 (11.8%) participants developed diabetes. There was a significant positive association between baseline baPWV and the risk of new-onset diabetes (per SD increment; OR, 1.33; 95% CI 1.13, 1.56). Consistently, when baPWV was assessed as quartiles, a significantly higher risk of new-onset diabetes was found in participants in quartiles 2–4 (≥ 15.9 m/s; OR, 1.80; 95% CI 1.22, 2.65) compared with those in quartile 1 (< 15.9 m/s). The positive association was consistent in participants with (per SD increment; OR, 1.29; 95% CI 1.06, 1.56) or without (per SD increment; OR, 1.40; 95% CI 1.15, 1.71) impaired fasting glucose (IFG, FG ≥ 100.8 and < 126.0 mg/dL, P-interaction = 0.486). Conclusions In this sample of hypertensive patients, we found a significant positive association between baseline baPWV and the risk of new-onset diabetes.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Greater arterial stiffness is associated independently with increased cardiovascular disease risk. The American Heart Association (AHA) has recommended following "Life's Simple 7 (LS7)" to optimize cardiovascular health; we tested whether better LS7 in middle age is associated with less arterial stiffness in later life. METHODS We studied 4,232 black and white participants aged 45-64 years at the baseline (1987-89) visit of the Atherosclerosis Risk in Communities Study cohort who also had arterial stiffness measured in 2011-13 (mean ± SD interval: 23.6 ± 1.0 years). We calculated a 14-point summary score for baseline LS7 and classified participants as having "poor" (0-4), "average" (5-9), or "ideal" (10-14) cardiovascular health. We used logistic regression to calculate odds ratios (ORs) and 95% confidence intervals (95% CI) for arterial stiffening: a high carotid-femoral pulse wave velocity (cfPWV, ≥13.23 m/s) or a high central pulse pressure (central PP, ≥ 82.35 mm Hg). RESULTS The age, race, sex, and heart rate-adjusted ORs (95% CI) for high cfPWV in the "ideal," "average," and "poor" LS7 summary categories were 1 (Reference), 1.30 (1.11, 1.53), and 1.68 (1.10,2.56), respectively (P-trend = 0.0003). Similarly, the adjusted ORs (95% CI) for high central PP across LS7 summary categories were 1 (Reference), 1.48 (1.27, 1.74), and 1.63 (1.04, 2.56), respectively (P-trend <0.0001). CONCLUSION Greater LS7 score in middle age is associated with less arterial stiffness 2-3 decades later. These findings further support the AHA recommendation to follow LS7 for cardiovascular disease prevention.

Abstract
Diabetes mellitus is characterized by increased central arterial stiffness and endothelial dysfunction leading to increased risk of cardiovascular complications. The aim of this study is to evaluate the effect of Curcuma longa on arterial stiffness and endothelial dysfunction in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus. This randomized controlled trial was conducted in 136 patients of type 2 diabetes. Among them, 114 completed at least one follow-up visit and included for data analysis. Arterial stiffness parameters were measured at baseline and every month for 3 months and endothelial dysfunction markers at baseline and after 3 months of treatment with C. longa or placebo. These parameters were compared between the two groups. Both C. longa and placebo groups were comparable at baseline. After 3 months of treatment, C. longa produced significant reduction from baseline in carotid-femoral pulse wave velocity (p = .002), left brachial-ankle pulse wave velocity (p = .001), aortic augmentation pressure (p = .007), aortic augmentation index (p = .007), and aortic augmentation index at heart rate 75 (p = .018) as compared with the placebo group. Three months treatment with C. longa significantly decreases arterial stiffness as compared with placebo in type 2 diabetes mellitus patients.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE African ancestry individuals are at high risk for hypertensive cardiovascular disease (CVD) and could benefit from early detection of arterial stiffening. We tested the association between the 2017 ACC/AHA hypertension categorizations, which include new blood pressure (BP) cutoffs and a definition for elevated BP, and arterial stiffness in 772 Afro-Caribbean men aged 50+ years (mean 64 years). METHODS Arterial stiffness was assessed by brachial-ankle pulse-wave velocity (PWV) using a waveform analyzer. Hypertension groups were based on the 2017 ACC/AHA guidelines and by pharmacologic control status. Multiple linear/logistic regression was used to determine the association of PWV with BP and hypertension. RESULTS Mean (SD) PWV was 1609 (298) cm/s and was independently correlated with age, SBP, pulse, diabetes, height, and alcohol intake (all P < 0.02). After adjusting for these, in men aged at least 65 years, those with stage 1 or uncontrolled stage 2 hypertension had significantly greater PWV than all other groups (all P < 0.05). Men with controlled hypertension had similar PWV to those with elevated BP (P = 0.7); however, this was significantly greater than men with normal BP (all P < 0.05). Patterns were similar, but with smaller effect sizes, in men aged less than 65 years (all P < 0.05 except controlled hypertension versus elevated or normal BP were not significant). CONCLUSION In these high-risk Afro-Caribbeans: stage 1 hypertension is associated with increased PWV, which supports the new guidelines; and, pharmacologic control appears to partially protect men from increased PWV. Longitudinal studies are needed to determine optimal PWV and timing of antihypertensive treatment for preventing future CVD.

Abstract
Background Heterogeneity in the underlying processes that contribute to heart failure with preserved ejection fraction ( HF p EF ) is increasingly recognized. Diabetes mellitus is a frequent comorbidity in HF p EF , but its impact on left ventricular and arterial structure and function in HF p EF is unknown. Methods and Results We assessed the impact of diabetes mellitus on left ventricular cellular and interstitial hypertrophy (assessed with cardiac magnetic resonance imaging, including T1 mapping pregadolinium and postgadolinium administration), arterial stiffness (assessed with arterial tonometry), and pulsatile arterial hemodynamics (assessed with in-office pressure-flow analyses and 24-hour ambulatory monitoring) among 53 subjects with HF p EF (32 diabetic and 21 nondiabetic subjects). Despite few differences in clinical characteristics, diabetic subjects with HFpEF exhibited a markedly greater left ventricular mass index (78.1 [95% CI , 70.4-85.9] g versus 63.6 [95% CI , 55.8-71.3] g; P=0.0093) and indexed extracellular volume (23.6 [95% CI , 21.2-26.1] mL/m2 versus 16.2 [95% CI , 13.1-19.4] mL/m2; P=0.0008). Pronounced aortic stiffening was also observed in the diabetic group (carotid-femoral pulse wave velocity, 11.86 [95% CI , 10.4-13.1] m/s versus 8.8 [95% CI , 7.5-10.1] m/s; P=0.0027), with an adverse pulsatile hemodynamic profile characterized by increased oscillatory power (315 [95% CI , 258-373] mW versus 190 [95% CI , 144-236] mW; P=0.0007), aortic characteristic impedance (0.154 [95% CI , 0.124-0.183] mm Hg/mL per second versus 0.096 [95% CI , 0.072-0.121] mm Hg/mL per second; P=0.0024), and forward (59.5 [95% CI , 52.8-66.1] mm Hg versus 40.1 [95% CI , 31.6-48.6] mm Hg; P=0.0010) and backward (19.6 [95% CI , 16.2-22.9] mm Hg versus 14.1 [95% CI , 10.9-17.3] mm Hg; P=0.0169) wave amplitude. Abnormal pulsatile hemodynamics were also evident in 24-hour ambulatory monitoring, despite the absence of significant differences in 24-hour systolic blood pressure between the groups. Conclusions Diabetes mellitus is a key determinant of left ventricular remodeling, arterial stiffness, adverse pulsatile hemodynamics, and ventricular-arterial interactions in HF p EF .
