Tabara Y, Shoji-Asahina A, Ogawa A, Sato Y. Metabolically healthy obesity and risks of cardiovascular disease and all-cause mortality, a matched cohort study: the Shizuoka study. Int J Obes (Lond) 2024; 48:1164-1169. [PMID: 38762621 DOI: 10.1038/s41366-024-01541-3] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/28/2023] [Revised: 05/07/2024] [Accepted: 05/09/2024] [Indexed: 05/20/2024]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Metabolically healthy obesity is not always a benign condition. It is associated with an increased incidence of cardiovascular disease and all-cause mortality. We investigated the prognostic significance of metabolically healthy obesity by comparing clinical profile-matched metabolically healthy obesity and non-obesity groups. METHODS We analyzed a health insurance dataset with annual health checkup data from Japan. The analyzed data included 168,699 individuals aged <65 years. Obesity was defined as ≥25 kg/m2 body mass index. Metabolically healthy was defined as ≤1 metabolic risk factor (high blood pressure, low high-density lipoprotein cholesterol, high low-density lipoprotein cholesterol, or high hemoglobin A1c). Incidence rates of stroke, myocardial infarction, and all-cause mortality identified from the insurance data were compared between metabolically healthy obesity and non-obesity groups (n = 8644 each) using a log-rank test. RESULTS The stroke (obesity: 9.2 per 10,000 person-years; non-obesity: 10.5; log-rank test p = 0.595), myocardial infarction (obesity: 3.7; non-obesity: 3.1; p = 0.613), and all-cause mortality (obesity: 26.6; non-obesity: 23.2; p = 0.304) incidence rates did not differ significantly between the metabolically healthy obesity and non-obesity groups, even when the abdominal obesity was considered in the analysis. The lack of association was also observed in the comparison between the metabolically unhealthy obesity and non-obesity groups (n = 10,965 each). The population with metabolically healthy obesity reported negligibly worse metabolic profiles than the population with non-obesity at the 5.6-year follow-up. CONCLUSION Obesity, when accompanied by a healthy metabolic profile, did not increase the risk of cardiovascular outcomes and all-cause mortality.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The burden of modifiable risk factors in young Egyptian adults presenting with first acute myocardial infarction (AMI), sex differences, sex-age interplay, and its relationship with demographic, angiographic characteristics, and type of AMI is a good topic for discussion. METHODS The study enrolled 165 young (≤45 years old) consecutive, eligible patients diagnosed with first AMI (ST-elevation myocardial infarction, non-ST-elevation myocardial infarction), for their demographic, angiographic, echocardiographic, and laboratory investigations and gender differences. RESULTS Our population were 29-45 years old and 12.1% were females, most of whom had ST-elevation myocardial infarction; obesity in females and smoking in males were the most prevalent; and the younger the age of females presenting with AMI the more aggressive underlying risk factors and the more reduction in left ventricular ejection fraction. Most of the female culprit lesions were thrombotic and the severity of atherosclerotic culprit lesions correlated positively with blood pressure. CONCLUSIONS The age paradox in young females (regarding left ventricular ejection fraction and the traditional risk factors) and the thrombotic nature of the culprit lesion mandate early intensive 1-year and 2-year preventive strategies against coronary heart disease (CHD) with special concern for obesity as the main trigger early in life with proper control of blood pressure. In males, smoking cessation programs are the main target to ameliorate the progress of CHD hand in hand with the other 1-year and 2-year preventive strategies of CHD.

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.

Abstract
Obesity epidemic reached the dimensions of a real global health crisis with more than one billion people worldwide living with obesity. Multiple obesity-related mechanisms cause structural, functional, humoral, and hemodynamic alterations with cardiovascular (CV) deleterious effects. A correct assessment of the cardiovascular risk in people with obesity is critical for reducing mortality and preserving quality of life. The correct identification of the obesity status remains difficult as recent evidence suggest that different phenotypes of obesity exist, each one associated with different degrees of CV risk. Diagnosis of obesity cannot depend only on anthropometric parameters but should include a precise assessment of the metabolic status. Recently, the World Heart Federation and World Obesity Federation provided an action plan for management of obesity-related CV risk and mortality, stressing for the instauration of comprehensive structured programs encompassing multidisciplinary teams. In this review we aim at providing an updated summary regarding the different obesity phenotypes, their specific effects on CV risk and differences in clinical management.

Abstract
Objectives: Various diseases are associated with obesity and metabolism. We sought to investigate the risk of cardiovascular disease (CVD) in diverse metabolic obesity phenotypes. Methods and Results: A prospective observational study of 1517 participants ≥25 years of age without CVD at baseline was conducted. Participants were categorized into four groups based on the condition of central obesity and metabolic health status: metabolically healthy normal weight, metabolically healthy obesity (MHO), metabolically unhealthy normal weight, and metabolically unhealthy obese (MUO). A multivariate Cox regression analysis was used to analyze the relationship between different obesity phenotypes and CVD. During 14830.49 person-years of follow-up, there were 244 incident cases of CVD. Of the 1517 participants, 72 (4.75%) and 812 (53.53%) were classified as having MHO and MUO, respectively. MHO and MUO had a tendency toward a higher risk of CVD [adjusted hazard ratios (HRs) = 1.49, 95% confidence interval (CI): 1.11-2.02 and HR = 1.25, 95% CI: 1.00-1.55, respectively] based on the waist circumference criterion. Conclusion: MHO and MUO can increase the risk of CVD.

Metabolically healthy obesity is associated with higher risk of both hyperfiltration and mildly reduced estimated glomerular filtration rate: the role of serum uric acid in a cross-sectional study. J Transl Med 2023; 21:216. [PMID: 36959674 PMCID: PMC10035285 DOI: 10.1186/s12967-023-04003-y] [Citation(s) in RCA: 3] [Impact Index Per Article: 3.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/10/2022] [Accepted: 02/16/2023] [Indexed: 03/25/2023] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND The impact of metabolically healthy obesity (MHO) on kidney dysfunction remains debatable. Moreover, few studies have focused on the early stages of kidney dysfunction indicated by hyperfiltration and mildly reduced eGFR. Thus, we aimed to investigate the association between the MHO and early kidney dysfunction, which is represented by hyperfiltration and mildly reduced estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR), and to further explore whether serum uric acid affects this association. METHODS This cross-sectional study enrolled 1188 residents aged ≥ 40 years old from Yonghong Communities. Metabolically healthy phenotypes were categorized based on Adult Treatment Panel III criteria. Obesity was defined as body mass index (BMI) ≥ 25 kg/m2. Mildly reduced eGFR was defined as being in the range 60 < eGFR ≤ 90 ml/min/1.73m2. Hyperfiltration was defined as eGFR > 95th percentile after adjusting for sex, age, weight, and height. RESULTS Overall, MHO accounted for 12.8% of total participants and 24.6% of obese participants. Compared to metabolically healthy non-obesity (MHNO), MHO was significantly associated with an increased risk of mildly reduced eGFR (odds ratio [OR] = 1.85, 95% confidence interval [CI] 1.13-3.01) and hyperfiltration (OR = 2.28, 95% CI 1.03-5.09). However, upon further adjusting for uric acid, the association between the MHO phenotype and mildly reduced eGFR was reduced to null. Compared with MHNO/non-hyperuricemia, MHO/non-hyperuricemia was associated with an increased risk of mildly reduced eGFR (OR = 2.04, 95% CI 1.17-3.58), whereas MHO/hyperuricemia was associated with an observably increased risk (OR = 3.07, 95% CI 1.34-7.01). CONCLUSIONS MHO was associated with an increased risk of early kidney dysfunction, and the serum uric acid partially mediated this association. Further prospective studies are warranted to clarify the causality.

Abstract
PURPOSE OF REVIEW This review aims to detail the current global research state of metabolically healthy obesogenesis with regard to metabolic factors, disease prevalence, comparisons to unhealthy obesity, and targeted interventions to reverse or delay progression from metabolically healthy to unhealthy obesity. RECENT FINDINGS As a long-term condition with increased risk of cardiovascular, metabolic, and all-cause mortality risks, obesity threatens public health on a national level. The recent discovery of metabolically healthy obesity (MHO), a transitional condition during which obese persons carry comparatively lower health risks, has added to confusion about the true effect of visceral fat and subsequent long-term health risks. In this context, the evaluation of fat loss interventions, such as bariatric surgery, lifestyle changes (diet/exercise), and hormonal therapies require re-evaluation in light of evidence that progression to high-risk stages of obesity relies on metabolic status and that strategies to protect the metabolism may be useful in the prevention of metabolically unhealthy obesity. Typical calorie-based exercise and diet interventions have failed to reduce the prevalence of unhealthy obesity. Holistic lifestyle, psychological, hormonal, and pharmacological interventions for MHO, on the other hand, may at least prevent progression to metabolically unhealthy obesity.

Abstract
PURPOSE Previous studies have shown that metabolically healthy obesity (MHO) and changes in its status are connected to an increased incidence of cardiovascular disease (CVD). Yet, fewer studies have been conducted in China, especially for the middle-aged and elderly population, a high-risk group. The purpose of the study was to investigate the association between metabolic health status and CVD events. PATIENTS AND METHODS A total of 46,055 participants were categorized into 6 subgroups with different metabolic states according to the existence of metabolic syndrome and body mass index (BMI). The changes in obesity and metabolic health status were defined from baseline to follow-up outcomes with a combination of overweight and obesity. Cox proportional hazards models estimated the association of CVD events and each BMI-metabolic groups. RESULTS MHO and metabolic abnormality normal weight (MANW) subjects had a higher HR of CVD, 1.62 (95% CI, 1.36-1.92) and 1.24 (95% CI, 1.07-1.44), respectively, than their metabolically healthy normal weight (MHNW) counterparts. Then, more than 50% and 30% of the metabolically healthy overweight or obesity (MHOO) populations maintained their status and converted to a metabolically unhealthy state, respectively. Stable MANW, MHOO and metabolically abnormal obesity (MAO) were associated with a higher risk for CVD, 1.68 (95% CI, 1.37-2.05),1.26 (95% CI, 1.08-1.47) and 1.65 (95% CI, 1.45-1.88), respectively, than stable MHNW. CONCLUSION Despite being of normal weight, MANW status is in fact a risk factor for CVD, as well as MHO, especially for the Chinese middle-aged and elderly population. Furthermore, metabolic health is a transient state for partial middle-aged and elderly Chinese individuals, and MAO has the highest risk of CVD, including coronary heart disease (CHD) and stroke.

Abstract
We conducted a systematic review of cohort studies comparing the risk of heart failure in people with differing metabolic health and obesity statuses. We searched three electronic databases (PubMed, Web of Science, Scopus), where the studies of the relationships of metabolic health and obesity statuses with heart failure were included. Fixed-effects or random-effects models were used to estimate the summary relative risks [RRs]. Ten cohort studies were selected. Compared with individuals with normal metabolic health and body mass, the pooled RRs (95% confidence intervals) for heart failure were 1.23 (1.17, 1.29) for metabolic healthy overweight individuals, 1.52 (1.40, 1.64) for metabolic healthy individuals with obesity, 1.56 (1.30, 1.87) for metabolically unhealthy normal-weight individuals, 1.75 (1.55, 1.98) for metabolically unhealthy overweight individuals, and 2.28 (1.96, 2.66) for metabolic unhealthy individuals with obesity. A sensitivity analysis suggested that no single study had a substantial effect on the results. The Egger's and Begg's tests showed no evidence of publication bias. People with overweight or obesity were at a higher risk of heart failure, even if metabolically healthy. In addition, compared with metabolically healthy normal-weight individuals; metabolically unhealthy normal-weight individuals, and those with overweight or and obesity, were at higher risk of heart failure.

Body mass index (BMI) distribution and its impact on cardiovascular disease (CVD) vary between Asian and western populations. The study aimed to reveal time-related trends in the prevalence of obesity and underweight and safe ranges of BMI in Japanese patients with CVD. We analyzed 5,020,464 records from the national Japanese Registry of All Cardiac and Vascular Diseases-Diagnosis Procedure Combination dataset over time (2012-2019) and evaluated BMI trends and the impact on in-hospital mortality for six acute CVDs: acute heart failure (AHF), acute myocardial infarction (AMI), acute aortic dissection (AAD), ischemic stroke (IS), intracerebral hemorrhage (ICH), and subarachnoid hemorrhage (SAH). Patients were categorized into five groups using the WHO Asian-BMI criteria: underweight (< 18.5 kg/m2), normal (18.5-22.9 kg/m2), overweight at risk (23.0-24.9 kg/m2), obese I (25.0-29.9 kg/m2), and obese II (≥ 30.0 kg/m2). Age was significantly and inversely related to high BMI for all diseases (P < 0.001). The proportion of BMI categories significantly altered over time; annual BMI trends showed a significant and gradual increase, except AAD. In adjusted mixed models, underweight was significantly associated with a high risk of in-hospital mortality in all CVD patients (AHF, OR 1.41, 95% CI 1.35-1.48, P < 0.001; AMI, OR 1.27, 95% CI 1.20-1.35, P < 0.001; AAD, OR 1.23, 95% CI 1.16-1.32, P < 0.001; IS, OR 1.45, 95% CI 1.41-1.50, P < 0.001; ICH, OR 1.18, 95% CI 1.13-1.22, P < 0.001; SAH, OR 1.17, 95% CI 1.10-1.26, P < 0.001). Moreover, obese I and II groups were significantly associated with a higher incidence of in-hospital mortality, except AHF and IS. Age was associated with in-hospital mortality for all BMI categories in six CVD patients. BMI increased annually in patients with six types of CVDs. Although underweight BMI was associated with high mortality rates, the impact of obesity on in-hospital mortality differs among CVD types.

Abstract
BACKGROUND AND AIMS To examine associations between metabolically obese phenotypes or their changes and increased carotid intima-media thickness (CIMT). METHODS AND RESULTS This prospective cohort included 13,681 Chinese adults aged 20-80 years who completed follow-up health examination with carotid ultrasound and were divided according to metabolic and weight status: metabolically healthy and normal weight (MHNW); metabolically obese but normal weight (MONW); metabolically healthy but obese (MHO); metabolically abnormal and obese (MAO). Cox and logistic regression were used to evaluate the associations of the phenotypes or their changes with increased CIMT. During a mean follow-up of 33 months, 1927 participants developed increased CIMT. After adjusting for age, sex and potential biochemical confounders, MAO was significantly associated with increased CIMT (HR 1.22, 95% CI [1.07, 1.4]); the association remained significant in those 40 years or older. Compared with stable MHNW, increased CIMT risk was higher for stable MAO (OR 1.35 [1.16, 1.57]), transitional MAO from MONW (OR 1.44 [1.04, 1.97]), and transitional MHO from MHNW (OR 1.59 [1.10, 2.26]) in demographic adjusted models; only stable MAO remained significant in the multivariate adjusted model (OR 1.23 [1.05, 1.45]). CONCLUSION MAO significantly elevated the risk of increased CIMT. Stable MAO and obese transitions also promoted CIMT progression.

Relationship of normal-weight central obesity with the risk for heart failure and atrial fibrillation: analysis of a nationwide health check-up and claims database. EUROPEAN HEART JOURNAL OPEN 2022; 2:oeac026. [PMID: 35919350 PMCID: PMC9242061 DOI: 10.1093/ehjopen/oeac026] [Citation(s) in RCA: 3] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/22/2022] [Revised: 03/25/2022] [Accepted: 04/06/2022] [Indexed: 11/25/2022]
Abstract
Aims There have been scarce data on the relationship of normal-weight central obesity (NWCO) with the subsequent risk for heart failure (HF) and atrial fibrillation (AF). Using a nationwide health check-up and administrative claims database, we sought to clarify whether NWCO would be associated with the incidence of HF and AF. Methods and results Medical records of 1 697 903 participants without prior history of cardiovascular disease (CVD) and normal-weight (body mass index of 18.5–23.0 kg/m2) were extracted from the JMDC Claims Database, which is a health check-up and claims database. We defined NWCO as normal-weight and CO (waist circumference ≥ 90 cm for men or ≥ 80 cm for women). The median age was 44.0 (37.0–52.0) years and 872 578 (51.4%) participants were men. Overall, 154 778 individuals (9.1%) had CO. The mean follow-up period was 3.3 ± 2.6 years. Participants with NWCO were older and more likely to be women than those without. HF and AF occurred in 26 936 (1.6%) and 6554 (0.4%) participants, respectively. People having NWCO were associated with a greater risk for HF [hazard ratio (HR): 1.072, 95% confidence interval (CI) 1.026–1.119] and AF (HR: 1.202, 95% CI: 1.083–1.333) compared with those having normal-weight without CO. Conclusion Our analysis of a nationwide health check-up and administrative claims database including ∼1.7 million participants without prevalent CVD history demonstrated the potential impact of NWCO on the risk for HF and AF, suggesting the importance of abdominal obesity in the developing HF and AF even in normal-weight individuals.

Abstract
Background and Purpose Overweight/obesity is a modified risk factor for stroke. This systematic review and meta-analysis aimed to assess the impact of different obesity phenotypes on stroke risk in adults. Methods The PubMed, Embase, and Cochrane Library databases were searched from their inception to 7 March 2021 to identify the prospective cohort studies investigating stroke risk among different metabolic overweight/obesity phenotypes. The methodological quality of the included studies was evaluated using the Newcastle–Ottawa Scale. Pooled hazard ratios (HRs) with 95% confidence intervals (CIs) were calculated using a random-effects model. Results A total of eleven prospective cohorts (n = 5,609,945 participants) were included in the systematic review, nine of which were included in the meta-analysis. All metabolically unhealthy phenotypes had a higher risk of stroke than the metabolically healthy normal-weight phenotypes, including metabolically unhealthy normal weight (HR = 1.63, 95% CI: 1.41–1.89, I2 = 89.74%, n = 7 cohort studies, 1,042,542 participants), metabolically unhealthy overweight (HR = 1.94, 95% CI: 1.58–2.40, I2 = 91.17%, n = 4 cohort studies, 676,166 participants), and metabolically unhealthy obese (HR = 1.99, 95% CI: 1.66–2.40, I2 = 93.49%, n = 6 cohort studies, 1,035,420 participants) phenotypes. However, no risk of stroke was observed in the populations with metabolically healthy overweight (MHOW) (HR = 1.07, 95% CI: 1.00–1.14, I2 = 69.50%, n = 5 studies, 4,171,943 participants) and metabolically healthy obese (MHO) (HR = 1.07, 95% CI: 0.99–1.16, I2 = 54.82%, n = 8 studies, 5,333,485 participants) phenotypes. The subgroup analyses for the MHO studies suggested that the risk of stroke increased only when the MHO participants were mainly females, from North America, and when the World Health Organization standard was applied to define obesity. In the subgroup analysis of the risk of stroke in MHOW, a longer follow-up duration was also associated with a higher risk of stroke. Conclusion The risk of stroke increase for all metabolically unhealthy phenotypes irrespective of the body mass index (BMI). The associated risk of stroke with metabolic health but high BMI shows substantial heterogeneity, which requires future research considering the impact of sex and transition of the metabolic status on the risk of stroke. Systematic Review Registration The study protocol was prospectively registered in PROSPERO (No. CRD42021251021).

Abstract
Background: Single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) in nitric oxide synthase 3 (NOS3) are associated with cardiovascular risk factors. However, it is not clear whether the NOS3 SNP is a genetic risk factor for cardiovascular diseases. Methods and Results: This prospective cohort study included 2,726 subjects aged ≥40 years who participated in a community-based health checkup. We genotyped 639 SNPs, including 2 NOS3 SNPs (rs1799983 and rs1808593). All subjects were monitored prospectively over a median follow-up period of 16.0 years, with the endpoint being cardiovascular events, including cardiovascular death and/or non-fatal myocardial infarction. Kaplan-Meier analysis demonstrated that both rs1799983 GT/TT and rs1808593 GG carriers had a higher risk of the endpoint than non-carriers. Univariate and multivariate Cox proportional hazard regression analyses revealed that both rs1799983 GT/TT and rs1808593 GG were independently associated with cardiovascular events after adjusting for confounding risk factors. The net reclassification index and integrated discrimination index were significantly improved by the addition of NOS3 SNPs as cardiovascular risk factors. Conclusions:NOS3 gene polymorphisms could be genetic risk factors for cardiovascular events in the general Japanese population, and could be used to facilitate the early identification of individuals at high risk of cardiovascular events.

[PMID: 35434409 PMCID: PMC8977194 DOI: 10.1253/circrep.cr-21-0165] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/06/2022] [Revised: 02/27/2022] [Accepted: 03/10/2022] [Indexed: 11/09/2022] Open
Abstract
Background: Non-communicable diseases (NCDs) are the leading cause of death worldwide. However, current evidence regarding the efficacy and cost-effectiveness of community intervention and health promotion programs for NCDs, specifically hypertension, obesity, diabetes, and dyslipidemia, in East and Southeast Asia has not yet been systematically reviewed. We systematically reviewed the literature from East and Southeast Asian countries to answer 2 clinical questions: (1) do health promotion programs for hypertension, obesity, diabetes, and dyslipidemia reduce cardiovascular events and mortality; and (2) are these programs cost-effective? Methods and Results: Electronic literature searches were performed across Medline, Cochrane Library, and Ichushi using key words and relevant subject headings related to randomized controlled trials, comparative studies, quasi-experimental studies, or propensity score matching that met eligibility criteria that were defined for each question. In all, 3,389 records were identified, of which 12 full-text articles were reviewed. Three papers were from Japan, 7 were from China/Hong Kong Special Administrative Region, and 2 were from South Korea. None were from Southeast Asia. Four papers examined the effect of community intervention or health promotion on the incidence of cardiovascular events or mortality. Eight studies examined the cost-effectiveness of interventions. Conclusions: The literature review revealed that community intervention and health promotion programs for the control of NCDs are a cost-effective means of reducing cardiovascular events and mortality in East Asian countries.

The Effectiveness of Mobile Cloud 12-Lead Electrocardiogram Transmission System in Patients with ST-Segment Elevation Myocardial Infarction. Medicina (B Aires) 2022; 58:medicina58020247. [PMID: 35208570 PMCID: PMC8876768 DOI: 10.3390/medicina58020247] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/07/2022] [Revised: 02/03/2022] [Accepted: 02/03/2022] [Indexed: 11/16/2022] Open
Abstract
Backgroundand Objectives: Delay of reperfusion therapy is related to high mortality in cases of ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI). Guidelines emphasize that the first-medical-contact-to-balloon (FMCTB) time should be within 90 min. A mobile cloud-based 12-lead electrocardiogram (MC-ECG) transmission system might be useful in such cases, especially in rural areas. Materials and Methods: From April 2019 to June 2021, both an MC-ECG transmission system and the conventional method in which a physician checks the ECG in a hospital (Conventional) were used for transport by emergency medical services in Shin-Yukuhashi Hospital, Fukuoka, Japan. During this period, 8684 consecutive patients were transported to this hospital. Among them, we investigated 48 STEMI patients. The MC-ECG group (n = 23) and the Conventional group (n = 25) were enrolled. Results: There was no significant difference in FMCTB time between the MC-ECG and Conventional groups (MC-ECG: 72.0 (60.5–107) min vs. Conventional: 80.0 (63.0–92.0) min, p = 0.77). The length of hospital stay in the MC-ECG group was significantly shorter than that in the Conventional group (12.0 (10.0–15.0) days vs. 16.0 (12.0–19.0) days, p = 0.039). The logistic regression model showed that patients’ non-use of MC-ECG was associated with a risk of more than 15-day length of hospital stay with an adjusted odd ratio of 0.08 (95% CI: 0.013–0.55, p = 0.0098). Conclusions: Using the MC-ECG, the length of hospital stay in patients with STEMI was significantly reduced.

Abstract
Arachidonic acid (AA) is an essential fatty acid that is released by phospholipids in cell membranes and metabolized by cyclooxygenase (COX), cytochrome P450 (CYP) enzymes, and lipid oxygenase (LOX) pathways to regulate complex cardiovascular function under physiological and pathological conditions. Various AA metabolites include prostaglandins, prostacyclin, thromboxanes, hydroxyeicosatetraenoic acids, leukotrienes, lipoxins, and epoxyeicosatrienoic acids. The AA metabolites play important and differential roles in the modulation of vascular tone, and cardiovascular complications including atherosclerosis, hypertension, and myocardial infarction upon actions to different receptors and vascular beds.

Abstract
BACKGROUND We aimed to identify the relationship between metabolically healthy obesity (MHO), a special subtype of obesity, and the incidence of cardiovascular disease (CVD) in rural Xinjiang. METHODS Body mass index (BMI) and the Joint Interim Statement criteria were utilized to define obesity and metabolic status, respectively. A baseline survey was conducted between 2010 and 2012. The cohort was followed-up until 2017, including 5059 participants (2953 Uyghurs and 2106 Kazakhs) in the analysis. RESULTS During 6.78 years of follow-up, 471 individuals developed CVD, 10.8% (n=545) of whom were obese, and the prevalence of MHO and MHNW was 5.2% and 54.5%, respectively. Compared with metabolically healthy normal weight subjects, the subjects with MHO had an increased risk of CVD (hazard ratio [HR]=1.76, 95% confidence interval [CI]: 1.23-2.51), while the metabolically unhealthy obesity (MUO) group had an even higher risk (HR=3.80, 95% CI: 2.87-5.03). Additionally, there were sex differences in the relationship between BMI-metabolic status and incident CVD (P interaction =0.027). Compared with the subjects with MHO, those with MUO had an increased risk of CVD (HR=1.84, 95% CI: 1.26-2.71). CONCLUSION MHO was associated with a high risk of CVD among adults in rural Xinjiang. In each BMI category, metabolically unhealthy subjects had a higher risk of developing CVD than did metabolically healthy subjects.
