[PMID: 37453997 DOI: 10.1007/s11325-023-02872-7] [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: 01/01/2023] [Revised: 04/27/2023] [Accepted: 06/12/2023] [Indexed: 07/18/2023]
Abstract
PURPOSE The purpose of the study was to evaluate the quantitative relationship between Oxygen Desaturation Index (ODI) and sleep structure of obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) and cardiac remodeling. METHODS In this study, patients were enrolled from January 2015 to October 2022, and were divided into 3 groups according to AHI: patients with AHI < 15, patients with 15 ≤ AHI < 30, and 260 patients with AHI ≥ 30. Stratified linear regression was used to analyze independent risk factors for cardiac remodeling in OSA. RESULTS A total of 479 patients were enrolled. We found that compared with AHI < 15 group (n = 120), the group with AHI > 30 (n = 260) had increased left atrial anteroposterior diameter, left ventricular end-diastolic internal diameter, left ventricular posterior wall thickness, right ventricular anteroposterior diameter, and interventricular septal thickness (P < 0.05). The group with 15 ≤ AHI ≤ 30 (n = 99) had increased left atrial anteroposterior diameter (P < 0.05). Multivariate linear regression revealed that N2 sleep was an independent risk factor for left ventricular posterior wall thickness, with positive correlation (p < 0.05). N3 sleep was an independent risk factor for transverse right atrial diameter and right ventricular anteroposterior diameter, with negative correlation (P < 0.05). ODI was an independent risk factor for interventricular septal thickness, with positive correlation (P < 0.05). The arousal index was an independent risk factor for increased left atrial anteroposterior diameter, with positive correlation (P < 0.05). CONCLUSIONS Increased ODI is an independent risk factor for interventricular septal thickness, while decreased slow wave sleep is an independent risk factor for right heart remodeling in OSA.

Risk Factors And Epigenetic Markers Of Left Ventricular Diastolic Dysfunction With Preserved Ejection Fraction In A Community-Based Elderly Chinese Population. Clin Interv Aging 2019; 14:1719-1728. [PMID: 31631991 PMCID: PMC6782027 DOI: 10.2147/cia.s219748] [Citation(s) in RCA: 3] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.6] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/17/2019] [Accepted: 09/19/2019] [Indexed: 12/28/2022] Open
Abstract
Purpose Left ventricular diastolic dysfunction with preserved ejection fraction (LVDD-PEF) is an early-stage manifestation but poorly understood in the process of heart failure. This study was designed to investigate risk factors and epigenetic markers for predicting LVDD-PEF. Patients and methods A community-based study in 1568 residents over 65 years was conducted in Shanghai, People's Republic of China, from June 2014 to August 2015. Echocardiography was performed to diagnose LVDD-PEF. DNA methylation by whole-genome bisulfite sequencing was used to determine those potential epigenetic markers contributing to LVDD-PEF. Results A total of 177 participants (11.3%) were diagnosed with LVDD-PEF, and higher prevalence in females than in males (15.0% vs 6.5%, P<0.001). Multivariate logistic regression analysis indicated that female sex (OR 2.46, 95% CI 1.47-4.13), body mass index (BMI) (OR 1.09, 95% CI 1.04-1.14), pulse pressure (PP) (OR 1.03, 95% CI 1.01-1.05) and carotid intima-media thickness (CIMT) (OR 4.20, 95% CI 1.40-12.55) showed a significant association with LVDD-PEF. Overall, 638 CpG sites were differentially methylated in LVDD-PEF group compared to non-LVDD-PEF group (P<0.001); 242 sites were significantly hypermethylated (covering 238 genes) and 396 sites were significantly hypomethylated (covering 265 genes). Conclusion Our findings found female, BMI, PP, and CIMT were independent predictors for LVDD-PEF in the community-dwelling elderly population. Regulation of DNA methylation might play a crucial role for LVDD-PEF.

Abstract
Objective Secreted frizzled related protein 5 (SFRP5) is a novel anti-inflammatory adipokine that is implicated in metabolic and cardiovascular disease (CVD). However, little is known about the relevance of SFRP5 with asymptomatic hypertensive target organ damages (TODs). We aimed to investigate the association between SFRP5 and TOD in a large population. Clinical trial registration NCT02368938. Methods A total of 1,745 community-dwelling elderly subjects aged over 65 years from northern Shanghai were recruited in the study. Plasma SFRP5 level was measured by an enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay. Asymptomatic TODs, including left ventricular mass index, peak transmitral pulsed Doppler velocity/early diastolic tissue Doppler velocity, carotid intima–media thickness (CIMT), pulse wave velocity (PWV), estimated glomerular filtration rate, and urinary albumin–creatinine ratio were evaluated. Results Plasma SFRP5 level was negatively associated with body mass index, waist/hip ratio, and fasting blood glucose (all P<0.001). Men, compared with women, had lower plasma SFRP5 level (4.19 vs 5.13 ng/mL, P<0.001). Additionally, plasma SFRP5 level was lower in diabetics than in those without diabetes (4.30 vs 4.81 ng/mL, P<0.05). Furthermore, an inverse association was observed between SFRP5 and PWV and CIMT (both P<0.05). Lastly, the multivariate logistic regression analysis showed lower SFRP5 level was significantly associated with increased arterial stiffness in the elderly (odds ratio 0.83, 95% confidence interval 0.71 to 0.99 per 1 standard deviation increase, P<0.05). Conclusion Plasma SFRP5 level was inversely correlated with conventional cardiovascular risk factors, and low plasma SFRP5 was also significantly associated with arterial stiffening in the elderly Chinese population.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Cardiovascular (CV) diseases are the leading cause of death and disability in the world. Increasing lifespans and ageing populations also contribute to an increasing CV burden. However, in China, there were few well-designed cohort studies focusing on the elderly population, let alone an established CV risk score. The objective of this study is to establish a CV risk score based on a community-dwelling Chinese elderly population, determining the profile of the associated CV risk factors and target organ damages (TODs), so as to guide the later intervention. METHODS AND ANALYSIS The Northern Shanghai Study is an ongoing prospective community-based study. After enrolment, clinical examination, anthropometric measurement and a questionnaire will be administered to each participant at baseline and after every 2 years in the follow-up. Our tests and examinations include: blood/urine sample and biochemical measurements, office blood pressure recording, carotid ultrasonograph, echocardiograph, pulse wave velocity, pulse wave analysis, 4-limb blood pressure recording, body mass index, etc. Baseline measurement will also include the assessments on TODs and the conventional CV risk factors. In the follow-up, the incidence of CV events and mortality will be recorded. The Northern Shanghai Risk Score will be calculated, with considerations on CV risk factors and TODs. ETHICS AND DISSEMINATION This study was approved by the Shanghai Tenth People's Hospital Institutional Review Board. All participants signed a written consent form. TRIAL REGISTRATION NUMBER NCT02368938; Pre-results.

Prevalence and correlates of left ventricular diastolic dysfunction and heart failure with preserved ejection fraction in elderly community residents. Int J Cardiol 2016; 227:820-825. [PMID: 27836303 DOI: 10.1016/j.ijcard.2016.10.041] [Citation(s) in RCA: 6] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.8] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/07/2016] [Revised: 10/10/2016] [Accepted: 10/14/2016] [Indexed: 10/20/2022]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Left ventricular diastolic dysfunction (LVDD) is closely related to heart failure with preserved ejection fraction (HFpEF), while the prevalence and correlates of either LVDD or HFpEF in elderly population remain largely unknown. METHODS The study was performed in 1274 community residents (769 women, aged ≥65years) who participated in the Shanghai Heart Health Study. Demographic, laboratory and echocardiographic data were obtained to analyze correlates of LVDD and HFpEF using univariate and multivariate Logistic analysis. RESULTS LVDD was detected in 31.9% (406/1274) residents and it was significantly higher in women than in men (34.2% vs. 28.3%, P=0.027). HFpEF prevalence was 2.8% (35/1274), and increased with aging in the whole cohort. For residents with left ventricular ejection fraction ≥50% and normal-sized ventricular cavity, female sex (odds ratio [OR] 1.69, 95% confidence interval [CI] 1.24-2.29), heart rate (OR 0.76, 95% CI 0.68-0.86), atrial fibrillation (OR 7.37, 95% CI 3.13-17.36), hypertension (OR 1.32, 95% CI 1.00-1.75), N-terminal pro-B type natriuretic peptide (OR 2.33, 95% CI 1.50-3.61) and high-sensitivity troponin T (hs-TnT) (OR 1.90, 95% CI 1.12-3.23) were independent correlates of asymptomatic LVDD. While age (OR 1.44, 95% CI 1.01-2.06), heart rate (OR 0.66, 95% CI 0.47-0.93) and hs-TnT (OR 4.37, 95% CI 1.46-13.12) were independently related to HFpEF. CONCLUSIONS LVDD is common in this community elderly population, and HFpEF is also not rare. Different factors played roles in different stages of HFpEF. Future studies are warranted to explore the predictors of LVDD and HFpEF in the community elderly.

Abstract
Background Advanced age is associated with left ventricle (LV) remodeling and impaired cardiac function that may increase the risk of heart failure. Even so, studies regarding age-related cardiac remodeling in a large, asymptomatic Asian population remain limited. Materials and Methods We studied 8,410 asymptomatic participants (49.7 ±11.7 y, 38.9% women) in a health evaluation cohort (2004–2012) at a tertiary center in Northern Taiwan. We analyzed age-related alterations for all echocardiography-derived cardiac structures/functions and the associations with circulating N-terminal prohormone of brain natriuretic peptide (NT-proBNP). We also explored sex-related differences in these measures. Results In our cohort of 8,410 participants, advanced age was associated with greater LV wall thickness, larger LV total mass (+5.08 g/decade), and greater LV mass index (4.41 g/m2/decade), as well as increased serum NT-proBNP level (+18.89 pg/mL/decade). An accompanying reduction of stress-corrected midwall fractional shortening (–0.1%/decade) with aging was apparent in women after multi-variate adjustment (–0.09%/decade, p = 0.001). Furthermore, women demonstrated greater overall increase in LV wall thickness, LV mass index, and NT-proBNP compared to men (p for interaction: <0.001). All blood pressure components, including systolic, diastolic, and pulse pressures were independently associated with greater wall thickness and LV mass index after adjustment for confounders (all p <0.001). The associations between age and cardiac remodeling or mid-wall functions were further confirmed in a subset of study subjects with repeated follow up by GEE model. Conclusions Significant associations of unfavorable LV remodeling and advanced age in our asymptomatic Asian population were observed, along with sex differences. These data may help explain the incidence of some diverse gender-related cardiovascular diseases, especially heart failure.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Brachial-ankle pulse wave velocity (PWV) is increasingly used for the measurement of arterial stiffness. In the present study, we quantified the interrelationship between brachial-ankle and carotid-femoral PWV in a workplace population, and investigated the associations with cardiovascular risk factors and carotid intima-media thickness (IMT). METHODS Brachial-ankle and carotid-femoral PWV were measured using the Omron-Colin VP1000 and SphygmoCor devices, respectively. We investigated the interrelationship by the Pearson's correlation analysis and Bland-Altman plot, and performed sensitivity and specificity analyses. RESULTS The 954 participants (mean ± standard deviation age 42.6 ± 14.2 years) included 630 (66.0%) men and 203 (21.3%) hypertensive patients. Brachial-ankle (13.4 ± 2.7 m/s) and carotid-femoral PWV (7.3 ± 1.6 m/s) were significantly correlated in all subjects (r = 0.75) as well as in men (r = 0.72) and women (r = 0.80) separately. For arterial stiffness defined as a carotid-femoral PWV of 10 m/s or higher, the sensitivity and specificity of brachial-ankle PWV of 16.7 m/s or higher were 72 and 94%, respectively. The area under the receiver operating characteristic curve was 0.953. In multiple stepwise regression, brachial-ankle and carotid-femoral PWV were significantly (p < 0.001) associated with age (partial r = 0.33 and 0.34, respectively) and systolic blood pressure (partial r = 0.71 and 0.66, respectively). In addition, brachial-ankle and carotid-femoral PWV were significantly (p < 0.001) associated with carotid IMT (r = 0.57 and 0.55, respectively) in unadjusted analysis, but not in analysis adjusted for cardiovascular risk factors (p ≥ 0.08). CONCLUSIONS Brachial-ankle and carotid-femoral PWV were closely correlated, and had similar determinants. Brachial-ankle PWV can behave as an ease-of-use alternative measure of arterial stiffness for assessing cardiovascular risk.

Abstract
Aortic blood pressure (BP) and 24-h ambulatory BP are both better associated with target organ damage than office brachial BP. However, it remains unclear whether a combination of these two techniques would be the optimal methodology to evaluate patients' BP in terms of left ventricular diastolic dysfunction (LVDD) prevention. In 230 participants, office brachial and aortic BPs were measured by a validated BP monitor and a tonometry-based device, respectively. 24-h ambulatory brachial and aortic BPs were measured by a validated ambulatory BP monitor (Mobil-O-Graph, Germany). Systematic assessment of patients' LVDD was performed. After adjustment for age, gender, hypertension and antihypertensive treatment, septum and lateral E/Ea were significantly associated with office aortic systolic BP (SBP) and pulse pressure (PP) and 24-h brachial and aortic SBP and PP (P ⩽ 0.04), but not with office brachial BP (P ⩾ 0.09). Similarly, 1 standard deviation in SBP was significantly associated with 97.8 ± 20.9, 86.4 ± 22.9, 74.1 ± 23.3 and 51.3 ± 22.6 in septum E/Ea and 68.6 ± 2 0.1, 54.2 ± 21.9, 37.9 ± 22.4 and 23.1 ± 21.4 in lateral E/Ea, for office and 24-h aortic and brachial SBP, respectively. In qualitative analysis, except for office brachial BP, office aortic and 24-h brachial and aortic BPs were all significantly associated with LVDD (P ⩽ 0.03), with the highest odds ratio in 24-h aortic SBP. Furthermore, aortic BP, no matter in the office or 24-h ambulatory setting, showed the largest area under receiver operating characteristic curves (P ⩽ 0.02). In conclusion, 24-h aortic BP is superior to other BPs in the association with LVDD.
