Atherosclerosis 2024; 394:117318. [PMID: 37839936 DOI: 10.1016/j.atherosclerosis.2023.117318] [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: 05/23/2023] [Revised: 09/27/2023] [Accepted: 09/28/2023] [Indexed: 10/17/2023]
Abstract
BACKGROUND AND AIMS Disparities in serum biomarker levels related to mortality persist within the US diabetic population. We conducted a study to explore the impact of alkaline phosphatase (ALP) on all-cause mortality and cardiovascular disease (CVD) mortality in type 2 diabetes patients. METHODS We analyzed a nationally representative sample of individuals aged 20 years and above from the National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (NHANES) conducted in the United States between 1999 and 2018. Baseline demographic information and biochemical markers, including blood glucose, γ-glutamyltranspeptidase, vitamin D and albumin, were collected. Participants were divided into four groups based on ALP levels and linked to the National Death Index to assess mortality. Follow-up continued until December 2019, and multiple mediation analyses were performed to assess the combined impact of different indicators on ALP differences in all-cause mortality and cardiovascular mortality risk. RESULTS Our analysis included 6481 NHANES participants, categorized as follows: 1626 (21.9%) had ALP levels below 58 U/L, 1674 in the second quartile (58-72 U/L), 1569 in the third quartile (72-88.3 U/L), and 1612 in the fourth quartile (above 88.3U/L). Significantly higher all-cause mortality and cardiovascular mortality rates were observed among participants in the 4th ALP quartile compared to other levels. The all-cause mortality rate was 38.06 per 1000 person-years (95% CI 34.89-41.51), and the cardiovascular mortality rate was 10.67 (9.06-12.57). Mediation analysis indicated that Vitamin D and albumin played a mediating role in the association between all-cause mortality, cardiovascular mortality, and ALP levels, with mediation proportions ranging from 10.33% to 27.64%. CONCLUSIONS Our study suggests that ALP levels have clinical value in predicting all-cause and CVD mortality risk in T2DM patients. The upregulation of Vitamin D and albumin might play a significant role in improving risk prediction and enable targeted interventions for reducing mortality risk in this population.

Abstract
Purpose The pathophysiological mechanisms underlying migraine remain elusive, with oxidative stress hypothesized as a potential etiological factor. The Oxidative Balance Score (OBS) is a comprehensive tool for assessing the impact of diet and lifestyle on oxidative stress, thereby gauging an individual's overall antioxidant capacity. In this cross-sectional study, we explored the correlation between OBS and migraine prevalence among a cohort of US adults. Methods We analyzed data from 6195 participants aged 20 years and above, drawn from the National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (NHANES) conducted between 1999 and 2004. We employed multiple logistic regression, coupled with sensitivity analyses, to investigate the relationship between OBS and migraine. Subsequent subgroup analyses and interaction tests were performed to assess the consistency of this association across the population. Results Multiple logistic regression revealed an inverse relationship between OBS and the likelihood of experiencing migraines. Specifically, individuals in the highest OBS quartile exhibited a significantly reduced migraine risk compared to those in the lowest quartile (OR = 0.98, 95% Confidence Interval (CI): 0.97-0.99, P = 0.0001). Furthermore, restricted cubic spline curves indicated a non-linear association between dietary OBS and migraine incidence (non-linear P = 0.0258). Discussion Our findings suggest that adherence to an antioxidant-rich diet may be an effective strategy for mitigating migraine, potentially by influencing oxidative balance.

Abstract
Objective This study aimed to explore the relationship between baseline bicarbonate levels and 30-day mortality in individuals with non-traumatic subarachnoid hemorrhage (SAH). Methods Patients with non-traumatic SAH were chosen from the Medical Information Mart for Intensive Care (MIMIC)-IV database. The relationship between baseline bicarbonate and 30-day mortality was examined using Cox regression models. Restricted cubic splines were used to test the hypothesis that there was an association between bicarbonate and mortality. With the use of Kaplan-Meier survival curve analysis, we looked deeper into the validity of these correlations. To find subgroups with differences, interaction tests were utilized. Results This retrospective cohort study consisted of 521 participants in total. Bicarbonate had a negative association with death at 30 days (HR = 0.93, 95%CI: 0.88-0.98, p = 0.004). Next, we divided bicarbonate into quartile groups. In comparison to the reference group Q1 (20 mEq/L), groups Q3 (23-25 mEq/L) and Q4 (26 mEq/L) had adjusted HR values of 0.47 (95%CI: 0.27-0.82, p = 0.007) and 0.56 (95%CI: 0.31-0.99, p = 0.047). No definite conclusions can be derived from this study, since there is no obvious curve link between baseline bicarbonate and 30-day mortality. Patients' 30-day mortality increased statistically significantly (p < 0.001, K-M analysis) in patients with low bicarbonate levels. The relationship between bicarbonate and 30-day mortality remained consistent in the stratified analysis, with no observed interactions. Conclusion Finally, 30-day mortality was negatively associated with baseline bicarbonate levels. Patients with non-traumatic SAH are more at risk of mortality if their bicarbonate levels are low.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Diabetes poses a significant threat to human health. There is a lack of large-scale cohort studies to explore the association between mortality risk and indicators beyond blood glucose monitoring in diabetic populations. METHODS Multivariable Cox proportional hazards regression models were performed to investigate the association of 13 blood biomarkers with mortality risk in the National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (NHANES) and biomarker levels were log-transformed and correlated with mortality. RESULTS During a median follow-up of 7.42 years, 1783 diabetic patients were enrolled. Compared to traditional risk factors, the addition of hs-cTnT, hs-cTnI, NT-proBNP, creatinine, cystatin C, and β-2 microglobulin biomarkers increased the predictive ability for all-cause mortality by 56.4%, 29.5%, 38.1%, 18.8%, 35.7%, and 41.3%, respectively. However, the inclusion of blood glucose monitoring had no impact on the prediction of all-cause mortality. Compared with the 1st quartiles of creatinine and Cystatin C, the risk of diabetes mortality were higher in the highest quartiles (HR: 5.16, 95% CI: 1.87-14.22; HR: 10.06, 95% CI: 4.20-24.13). CONCLUSIONS In the diabetic population, elevated plasma levels of hs-cTnT, hs-cTnI, NT-proBNP, creatinine, cystatin C, and β-2 microglobulin serve as robust and straightforward predictors of long-term mortality compared to blood glucose levels and HbA1c values. Creatinine and cystatin C stand out as more precise markers for predicting diabetes mortality prior to blood glucose monitoring.

Abstract
SIGNIFICANCE STATEMENT Lower serum bicarbonate levels, even within the normal range, are strongly linked to risks of cardiovascular disease in CKD, possibly by modifying vascular function. In this randomized, controlled trial, treatment with sodium bicarbonate (NaHCO 3 ) did not improve vascular endothelial function or reduce arterial stiffness in participants with CKD stage 3b-4 with normal serum bicarbonate levels. In addition, NaHCO 3 treatment did not reduce left ventricular mass index. NaHCO 3 did increase plasma bicarbonate levels and urinary citrate excretion and reduce urinary ammonium excretion, indicating that the intervention was indeed effective. NaHCO 3 therapy was safe with no significant changes in BP, weight, or edema. These results do not support the use of NaHCO 3 for vascular dysfunction in participants with CKD. BACKGROUND Lower serum bicarbonate levels, even within the normal range, are strongly linked to risks of cardiovascular disease in CKD, possibly by modifying vascular function. Prospective interventional trials with sodium bicarbonate (NaHCO 3 ) are lacking. METHODS We conducted a randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled trial examining the effect of NaHCO 3 on vascular function in 109 patients with CKD stage 3b-4 (eGFR 15-44 ml/min per 1.73 m 2 ) with normal serum bicarbonate levels (22-27 mEq/L). Participants were randomized 1:1 to NaHCO 3 or placebo at a dose of 0.5 mEq/lean body weight-kg per day for 12 months. The coprimary end points were change in brachial artery flow-mediated dilation (FMD) and change in aortic pulse wave velocity over 12 months. RESULTS Ninety patients completed this study. After 12 months, plasma bicarbonate levels increased significantly in the NaHCO 3 group compared with placebo (mean [SD] difference between groups 1.35±2.1, P = 0.003). NaHCO 3 treatment did not result in a significant improvement in aortic pulse wave velocity from baseline. NaHCO 3 did result in a significant increase in flow-mediated dilation after 1 month; however, this effect disappeared at 6 and 12 months. NaHCO 3 resulted in a significant increase in 24-hour urine citrate and pH and a significant decrease in 24-hour urine ammonia. There was no significant change in left ventricular mass index, ejection fraction, or eGFR with NaHCO 3 . NaHCO 3 treatment was safe and well-tolerated with no significant changes in BP, antihypertensive medication, weight, plasma calcium, or potassium levels. CONCLUSION Our results do not support the use of NaHCO 3 for vascular dysfunction in participants with CKD and normal serum bicarbonate levels.

Abstract
Aim To explore the relationship between baseline bicarbonate levels and their changes with 30-day mortality in patients with acute ischemic stroke who were admitted to the intensive care unit (ICU). Methods This cohort study collected the data of 4,048 participants from the Medical Information Mart for Intensive Care (MIMIC)-III and MIMIC-IV databases. Univariate and multivariable Cox proportional risk models were utilized to explore the relationship between bicarbonate T0 and Δbicarbonate with 30-day mortality in patients with acute ischemic stroke. The Kaplan-Meier curves were plotted to measure the 30-day survival probability of patients with acute ischemic stroke. Results The median follow-up time was 30 days. At the end of the follow-up, 3,172 patients survived. Bicarbonate T0 ≤ 21 mEq/L [hazard ratio (HR) = 1.24, a 95% confidence interval (CI): 1.02-1.50] or 21 mEq/L < bicarbonate T0 ≤ 23 mEq/L (HR = 1.29, 95%CI: 1.05-1.58) were associated with an increased risk of 30-day mortality in patients with acute ischemic stroke compared with bicarbonate T0 > 26 mEq/L. -2 mEq/L < Δbicarbonate ≤ 0 mEq/L (HR = 1.40, 95%CI: 1.14-1.71), 0 mEq/L < Δbicarbonate ≤ 2 mEq/L (HR = 1.44, 95%CI: 1.17-1.76), and Δbicarbonate >2 mEq/L (HR = 1.40, 95%CI: 1.15-1.71) were correlated with an elevated risk of 30-day mortality in acute ischemic stroke patients. The 30-day survival probability of acute ischemic stroke patients with 21 mEq/L < bicarbonate T0 ≤ 23 mEq/L, 23 mEq/L < bicarbonate T0 ≤ 26 mEq/L, or bicarbonate T0 >26 mEq/L was higher than that of patients with bicarbonate T0 ≤ 21 mEq/L. The 30-day survival probability was greater for patients in the Δbicarbonate ≤ -2 mEq/L group than for those in the Δbicarbonate >2 mEq/L group. Conclusion Low baseline bicarbonate levels and decreased bicarbonate levels during the ICU stay were associated with a high risk of 30-day mortality in acute ischemic stroke patients. Special interventions should be offered to those with low baseline and decreased bicarbonate levels during their ICU stay.
