Prognostic Value of Different Levels of Uric Acid in Patients with Coronary Chronic Total Occlusion Undergoing Percutaneous Coronary Intervention. J Clin Med 2023; 12:jcm12113794. [PMID: 37297987 DOI: 10.3390/jcm12113794] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/12/2023] [Revised: 05/10/2023] [Accepted: 05/22/2023] [Indexed: 06/12/2023] Open
Abstract
Recent data suggest that uric acid (UA) might be an independent predictor of clinical outcomes following percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI). The predictive value of uric acid in patients undergoing PCI for chronic total occlusions (CTO) is unknown. We included patients with CTO who underwent PCI at our center in 2005 and 2012, with available uric acid levels before angiography. Subjects were divided into groups according to uric acid tertiles (<5.5 mg/dL, 5.6-6.9 mg/dL, and >7.0 mg/dL), and outcomes were compared among the groups. Out of the 1963 patients (mean age 65.2 ± 11 years), 34.7% (n = 682) had uric acid concentrations in the first tertile, 34.3% (n = 673) in the second tertile, and 31% (n = 608) in the third tertile. Median follow-up was 3.0 years. Uric acid levels in the first tertile were associated with significantly lower all-cause mortality, as compared to the third tertile, with an adjusted hazard ratio (HR) of 0.67 (95% confidence interval (CI): 0.49 to 0.92; p = 0.012). No significant differences regarding all-cause mortality were found between patients in the first and second tertiles (HR: 0.96 [95% CI: 0.71 to 1.3; p = 0.78]). High levels of uric acid emerged as an independent predictor of all-cause mortality in patients with chronic total occlusion treated with PCI. Hence, uric acid levels should be incorporated into the risk assessment of patients with CTO.

Abstract
The diffusing capacity of the lung for carbon monoxide (DLCO) is indicative of the alveolar-capillary membrane function. A reduced DLCO is associated with poor prognosis in chronic heart failure (HF). However, the significance of DLCO as an independent prognostic predictor has not been established. Here, we aimed to determine the prognostic value of DLCO in patients with chronic HF.We enrolled 214 patients (139 females, mean age: 63 ± 16 years, left ventricular ejection fraction [LVEF]: 45 ± 21%) with stable chronic HF who underwent pulmonary function tests. Only never smokers were included in the analysis because smoking can decrease DLCO.During a median follow-up period of 2.1 years, 52 patients (24.3%) experienced cardiac events, including unplanned HF admissions, left ventricular assist device (LVAD) implantations, all-cause deaths, and cardiopulmonary arrests (CPAs). The median percent predicted DLCO (%DLCO) was 87.3%. In a Cox regression analysis, a %DLCO of ≤87.3% was independently associated with the cardiac events, even after adjusting for age, sex, systolic blood pressure (SBP), LVEF, anemia, brain natriuretic peptide, estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR), and prior HF admission (hazard ratio [HR]: 1.87, 95% confidence interval: 1.03-3.53, P = 0.030).A reduced DLCO is an independent predictor of poor prognosis in nonsmoking patients with chronic HF.

Abstract
In this study, we aim to investigate the association of serum uric acid (SUA) with the prevalence of premature ventricular contraction (PVC). The relationship between SUA and the prevalence of PVC in 98,965 subjects (79,034 male subjects, mean age: 51.9 ± 12.6 years old) in the Kailuan cohort study (n = 101,510, age range: 18-98 years) from June 2006 to October 2007 was investigated. These subjects were divided into five groups on the basis of their SUA levels. A multivariate logistic regression model was constructed to evaluate the association between SUA and the prevalence of PVC. The prevalence of PVC was 1.1% in all subjects, 1.1% in male subjects, and 1.0% in female subjects. Compared with the first quintile of SUA, the odds ratio (OR) and 95% confidence interval (95% CI) of other quintiles were 1.33 (1.05-1.69), 1.14 (0.90-1.46), 1.37 (1.08-1.74), and 1.63 (1.30-2.06) in male subjects; 1.12 (0.68-1.87), 1.27 (0.77-2.09), 1.45 (0.90-2.36), and 1.33 (0.81-2.18) in female subjects; and 1.30 (1.04-1.61), 1.20 (0.96-1.50), 1.33 (1.07-1.66), and 1.57 (1.26-1.95) for all subjects. The correlation between SUA and the prevalence of PVC was significant in all subjects and in male subjects, but not in female subjects. We demonstrated that SUA was apparently associated with the prevalence of PVC. The significant relationship between SUA and PVC identified in male subjects suggests the potential involvement of a gender-specific mechanism. Prospective studies are needed to further corroborate our results.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Little is known about the relationship between serum uric acid (SUA) and cardio-ankle vascular index (CAVI) in Chinese population. Therefore, we aimed to investigate the gender difference in the association of SUA and CAVI in a southwestern Chinese population. METHODS Data were obtained from subjects via routine physical examinations in the Public Health Center of our hospital between 2011 and 2014 in Chongqing. The data included completed anthropometry and blood biochemical indicators. The CAVI were recorded using an automatically VaseraVS-1000 vascular screening system. RESULTS We found females with hyperuricemia (HUA) had significantly higher CAVI than women with normal SUA (8.45 ± 1.40 vs 7.67 ± 1.15, P<0.05). Then we defined high CAVI as CAVI≥9 m/s, and compared the percentage of high CAVI, we found women with HUA had higher percentage of high CAVI than women with normal SUA (26.83% vs 9.38%, P<0.05). Those differences were not significant in males. Also, the logistic regression analysis found age and hypertension were major independent risk factors associated with high CAVI in both genders. HUA and hyperglycemia were independently associated with high CAVI in females with an OR of 3.65, 95%CI (1.37-9.73) and 3.02, 95%CI (1.38-6.63) respectively. However, these significant associations were not be found in males. CONCLUSIONS Our data showed positive associations between elevated SUA levels and higher CAVI risk in the inland Chinese females, but not in males. The reason for the gender differences were still unclear, sex hormones may play a role. Further prospective studies including detailed personal information and multicenter were required.
