[PMID: 38694567 PMCID: PMC11061535 DOI: 10.3389/fcvm.2024.1376861] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/26/2024] [Accepted: 04/04/2024] [Indexed: 05/04/2024] Open
Abstract
Objective The purpose of this meta-analysis was to investigate the effect of high-intensity interval training (HIIT) on arterial stiffness (AS) and vascular function in persons at high risk of cardiovascular disease (CVD). Methods We conducted a comprehensive search of randomized controlled trials (RCTs) published in electronic databases (PubMed, Web of Science, Cochrane, Embase, and Ebsco) since their inception through October 2023 to evaluate the effect of HIIT on AS and vascular function in persons at high risk for CVD. The weighted mean difference (WMD) and 95% confidence intervals (95% CI) were calculated, and heterogeneity was assessed using the I2 test. Results This study included 661 participants from 16 studies. HIIT significantly reduced pulse wave velocity (PWV) in persons at high risk for CVD [weighted mean difference (WMD), -0.62; 95% CI, -0.86--0.38; P < 0.00001]. Subgroup analysis showed that the PWV improvement effect was better when the HIIT program was performed 2-3 times per week and the duration was controlled within 40 min [2-3 times, -0.67; 95% CI, -0.93--0.41; P < 0.00001; time of duration, ≤40 min, -0.66; 95% CI, -0.91--0.41; P < 0.00001]. HIIT significantly reduced systolic blood pressure (SBP, -5.43; 95% CI, -8.82--2.04; P = 0.002), diastolic blood pressure (DPB, -2.96; 95% CI, -4.88--1.04; P = 0.002), and resting heart rate (RHR, -4.35; 95% CI, -7.04--1.66; P = 0.002), but had no significant effect on augmentation index (AIX, -2.14; 95% CI, -6.77-2.50; P = 0.37). Conclusion HIIT can improve PWV in high-risk individuals with CVD and reduce SBP, DBP, and RHR, but has no significant effect on AIX. HIIT can effectively improve AS and vascular function and can be recommended as an effective method to improve AS in high-risk persons with CVD.

Impact of Successive Office Blood Pressure Measurements During a Single Visit on Cardiovascular Risk Prediction: Analysis of CARTaGENE. Hypertension 2023; 80:2209-2217. [PMID: 37615094 DOI: 10.1161/hypertensionaha.123.21510] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/12/2023] [Accepted: 08/08/2023] [Indexed: 08/25/2023]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Multiple office blood pressure (BP) readings correlate more closely with ambulatory BP than single readings. Whether they are associated with long-term outcomes and improve cardiovascular risk prediction is unknown. Our objective was to assess the long-term impact of multiple office BP readings. METHODS We used data from CARTaGENE, a population-based survey comprising individuals aged 40 to 70 years. Three BP readings (BP1, BP2, and BP3) at 2-minute intervals were obtained using a semiautomated device. They were averaged to generate BP1-2, BP2-3, and BP1-2-3 for systolic BP (SBP) and diastolic BP. Cardiovascular events (major adverse cardiovascular event [MACE]: cardiovascular death, stroke, and myocardial infarction) during a 10-year follow-up were recorded. Associations with MACE were obtained using adjusted Cox models. Predictive performance was assessed with 10-year atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease scores and their associated C statistics. RESULTS In the 17 966 eligible individuals, 2378 experienced a MACE during follow-up. Crude SBP values ranged from 122.5 to 126.5 mm Hg. SBP3 had the strongest association with MACE incidence (hazard ratio, 1.10 [1.05-1.15] per SD) and SBP1 the weakest (hazard ratio, 1.06 [1.01-1.10]). All models including SBP1 (SBP1, SBP1-2, and SBP1-2-3) were underperformed. At a given SBP value, the excess MACE risk conferred by SBP3 was 2× greater than SBP1. In atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease scores, SBP3 yielded the highest C statistic, significantly higher than most other SBP measures. In contrast to SBP, all diastolic BP readings yielded similar results. CONCLUSIONS Cardiovascular risk prediction is improved by successive office SBP values, especially when the first reading is discarded. These findings reinforce the necessity of using multiple office BP readings.

Diabetes Metab Syndr Obes 2023; 16:653-662. [PMID: 36923684 PMCID: PMC10008911 DOI: 10.2147/dmso.s399928] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/19/2022] [Accepted: 02/21/2023] [Indexed: 03/10/2023] Open
Abstract
PURPOSE To investigate the association of visceral fat with arterial stiffness of heart failure patients with preserved ejection fraction (HFpEF) and to evaluate the extent to which this association is mediated by blood pressure (BP). PATIENTS AND METHODS This cross-sectional descriptive study (clinicaltrials.gov identifier: NCT04535726) recruited 94 patients with HFpEF totally from October to December 2020. The obesity-related measurements included visceral fat area (VFA), body mass index (BMI), waist circumference (WC), hip circumference (HC), waist-hip ratio (WC/HC), abdominal circumference (AC), body fat mass and fat percentage. Brachial-ankle pulse wave velocity (baPWV) was used to estimate the degree of arterial stiffness. Mediation analysis was performed to reveal whether the effect of visceral fat area on arterial stiffness can be mediated by BP in patients with HFpEF and the extent to which this association was mediated by BP. RESULTS About 93.6% of HFpEF patients were accompanied with abdominal obesity. Patients in baPWV ≥1800cm/s group were older, with a higher incidence of type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM), hypertension and abdominal obesity. VFA, systolic BP (SBP), diastolic BP (DBP) and pulse pressure (PP) were correlated with baPWV in total group. Adjusted for age ≥75 years old, gender, smoking, T2DM, calcium channel blocker and statins, the mediation effect of systolic SBP and PP on the VFA-baPWV association were 53.3% (indirect effect was 2.28, 95% CI 0.62-4.73) and 48.4% (indirect effect was 2.07, 95% CI 0.51-4.38), respectively. DBP failed to mediate the association between VFA and baPWV (indirect effect was 0.50, 95% CI -0.41-2.14). CONCLUSION The association of visceral fat with baPWV in HFpEF patients may be partly accounted for SBP or PP. Elevated SBP and PP might be important potential targets for preventing arterial stiffness in HFpEF patients.

Unattended versus Attended Blood Pressure Measurement: Relationship with Retinal Microcirculation. J Clin Med 2022; 11:jcm11236966. [PMID: 36498540 PMCID: PMC9736745 DOI: 10.3390/jcm11236966] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/28/2022] [Revised: 11/19/2022] [Accepted: 11/22/2022] [Indexed: 11/29/2022] Open
Abstract
Though the relationship between both “attended” and “unattended” BP and several forms of target organ damage have been evaluated, data on retinal arteriolar alterations are lacking. The aim of our study was to evaluate the relationship between “attended” or “unattended” BP values and retinal arteriolar changes in consecutive individuals undergoing a clinical evaluation and assessment of retinal fundus at an ESH Excellence Centre. An oscillometric device programmed to perform 3 BP measurements, at 1 min intervals and after 5 min of rest was used on all individuals to measure BP with the patient alone in the room (“unattended”) or in the presence of the physician (“attended”) in the same day in a random order. The retinal arteriole’s wall thickness (WT) was measured automatically by a localization algorithm as the difference between external (ED) and internal diameter (ID) by adaptive optics (RTX-1, Imagine Eyes, Orsay, Francia). Media-to-lumen ratio (WLR) of the retinal arterioles and cross-sectional area (WCSA) of the vascular wall were calculated. Results: One-hundred-forty-two patients were examined (mean age 57 ± 12 yrs, 48% female, mean BMI 26 ± 4). Among them, 60% had hypertension (84% treated) and 11% had type 2 diabetes mellitus. Unattended systolic BP (SBP) was lower as compared to attended SBP (129 ± 14.8. vs. 122.1 ± 13.6 mmHg, p < 0.0001). WLR was similarly correlated with unattended and attended SBP (r = 0.281, p < 0.0001 and r = 0.382, p < 0.0001) and with unattended and attended diastolic BP (r = 0.34, p < 0.001 and r = 0.29, p < 0.0001). The differences between correlations were not statistically significant (Steiger’s Z test). Conclusion: The measurement of “unattended” or “attended” BP provides different values, and unattended BP is lower as compared to attended BP. In this study a similar correlation was observed between attended and unattended BP values and structural changes of retinal arterioles.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Data are limited regarding differential and common effects of cardiovascular risk factors on subclinical changes in vascular structure and function. We aimed to examine the relationships of life-course cumulative burdens of cardiovascular risk factors with adult arterial pulse wave velocity (PWV) and carotid intima-media thickness (CIMT) in a longitudinal cohort of the Bogalusa Heart Study. METHODS The cohort consisted of 900 subjects who had aortic-femoral PWV and CIMT measurements. These participants were examined 5-16 times for body mass index (BMI), blood pressure, atherogenic index of plasma (AIP), and low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDLC) from childhood to adulthood. The area under the curve (AUC) was calculated as a measure of long-term burden of the risk factors. RESULTS Adjusting for covariates, adult PWV was associated with AUCs of BMI, systolic blood pressure (SBP) and AIP (standardized regression coefficient [β] = 0.191, 0.321, 0.153, respectively; P < 0.001 for all). Adult CIMT was associated with AUCs of BMI, SBP, AIP and LDLC (β = 0.115, 0.202, 0.141, 0.152, respectively; P < 0.001 for all). Moreover, childhood BMI was associated with adult PWV and CIMT (β = 0.088 and 0.075, respectively; false discovery rate q values < 0.05 for both), and childhood LDLC with adult CIMT (β = 0.079; false discovery rate q value < 0.05). These associations did not differ significantly among race and sex groups. CONCLUSIONS The life-course cumulative burden of BMI, SBP, and AIP has common effects on arterial wall stiffening and thickening, whereas LDLC is specifically associated with arterial wall thickness, and this effect starts in early life.

Abstract
Accurate blood pressure (BP) measurement is necessary for the evaluation and treatment of hypertension to prevent the progression of subclinical vascular disease, including arterial stiffness. We investigated the associations between brachial-ankle pulse wave velocity (baPWV), a measure of arterial stiffness, and each of office brachial systolic BP (SBP) with and without an observer present (attended or unattended office brachial SBP), attended or unattended office central SBP, and home brachial SBPs (specifically, the means of morning, evening, or morning-evening home brachial SBP) in patients being treated for hypertension. Measurements were performed among 70 adults (mean age, 67.0 ± 9.4 years; women, 51.4%) with a mean attended office brachial SBP of 127.6 ± 14.5 mmHg and mean baPWV of 16.3 ± 2.8 m/s. Univariate analysis showed that higher attended office brachial SBP, morning home brachial SBP, and morning-evening home brachial SBP were each statistically significantly associated with higher baPWV (r = 0.25, P = 0.04; r = 0.37, P = 0.002; and r = 0.32, P = 0.006, respectively). Multiple linear regression analysis with adjustments for traditional cardiovascular risk factors showed that only morning home brachial SBP was statistically significantly associated with baPWV [β = 0.06, 95% confidence interval (0.01-0.11), P = 0.02). In conclusion, higher morning home brachial SBP - but none of the office-measured SBP values - was associated with arterial stiffness.

Abstract
Hypertension is the most common cardiovascular (CV) risk factor, strongly and independently associated with an increased risk of major CV outcomes, including myocardial infarction, stroke, congestive heart failure, renal disease and death due to CV causes. Effective control of hypertension is of key importance for reducing the risk of hypertension-related CV complications, as well as for reducing the global burden of CV mortality. However, several studies reported relatively poor rates of control of high blood pressure (BP) in a setting of real-life practice. To improve hypertension management and control, national and international scientific societies proposed several educational and therapeutic interventions, among which the systematic implementation of out-of-office BP measurements represents a key element. Indeed, proper assessment of individual BP profile, including home, clinic and 24-h ambulatory BP levels, may improve awareness of the disease, ensure high level of adherence to prescribed medications in treated hypertensive patients, and thus contribute to ameliorate BP control in treated hypertensive outpatients. In line with these purposes, recent European guidelines have released practical recommendations and clear indications on how, when and how properly measuring BP levels in different clinical settings, with different techniques and different methods. This review aimed at discussing current applications and potential limitations of European guidelines on how to measure BP in office and out-of-office conditions, and their potential implications in the daily clinical management of hypertension.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Arterial stiffness, namely pulse wave velocity (PWV), is an emerging biomarker in the assessment of vascular health. This meta-analysis aims to determine the effects of exercise training on PWV in patients with hypertension, and to identify the possible moderator variables (e.g. type of exercise) of the effect of exercise on PWV. METHODS MEDLINE, EMBASE, Cochrane and Web of Science were searched up until July 2019 for randomized controlled trials assessing the effect of exercise interventions lasting 4 or more weeks on PWV in adults with hypertension. Random-effects modelling was used to compare changes from pre to postintervention in PWV between exercise and control groups. Data were reported as weighted mean difference (WMD) and 95% confidence interval (95% CI). Protocol registration: PROSPERO registration number CRD42019138658. RESULTS We included 14 trials (15 interventions), involving five aerobic, two dynamic resistance, six combined and two isometric resistance groups, totalling 642 participants with hypertension. PWV was significantly reduced by exercise training [(WMD (95% CI) = -0.76 m/s (-1.05 to -0.47)]. Analysis of moderator variables showed that aerobic exercise [WMD (95% CI) = -0.70 m/s (-1.20 to -0.19)], combined exercise [WMD (95% CI) = -0.74 m/s (-1.41 to -0.08)] and isometric resistance exercise [WMD (95% CI) = -0.98 m/s (-1.24 to -0.73)] reduced PWV. There was no significant reduction in PWV in participants undertaking dynamic resistance training [WMD (95% CI) = -0.58 (-1.58 to 0.42)]. CONCLUSION This meta-analysis supports that exercise interventions based on aerobic, combined or isometric exercise are suitable to improve PWV in adults with hypertension.
