Clinical correlates of circulating small dense low-density lipoproteins in acute infective endocarditis. Infection 2024; 52:935-944. [PMID: 38114685 DOI: 10.1007/s15010-023-02139-z] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/07/2023] [Accepted: 11/14/2023] [Indexed: 12/21/2023]
Abstract
BACKGROUND AND AIM Infective endocarditis (IE) is a complex thrombo-inflammatory disorder, the pathogenesis of which involves a multifaceted interplay between vascular damage and bacterial virulence factors. This study aimed to assess the prognostic role of small dense low-density lipoprotein (sdLDL) cholesterol in patients with IE and its correlation with various disease-related features. METHODS A cohort of 198 patients with definite IE was included in this study. Clinical, laboratory, and echocardiographic parameters were meticulously analyzed, with a specific focus on comorbidities. sdLDL levels were measured using stored plasma samples obtained upon admission during the acute phase of the disease. RESULTS The median level of sdLDL was 24 mg/dL [with an interquartile range of 17.9-35.2 mg/dL], and this value showed a statistically significant positive correlation with LDL/HDL cholesterol and triglycerides (p < 0.01 for all). Furthermore, a remarkable inverse correlation between C-reactive protein and D-dimer levels was observed (p < 0.0001). Univariate analysis revealed that patients with sdLDL levels ≤ 24 mg/dL had 2.75 times higher odds of in-hospital mortality (95% Confidence Interval:1.08-6.98, p = 0.031). In addition, nonsurvivors had significantly lower median sdLDL levels (19.7 vs. 26.0 mg/dL, p = 0.041). Lower sdLDL levels were also associated with embolic complications, larger vegetation size, and positive blood cultures for Staphylococci (p = 0.019, p = 0.022, and p < 0.001, respectively). CONCLUSIONS Low circulating sdLDL levels in the acute phase of IE were significantly correlated with unfavorable clinical outcomes. These results suggest that the sdLDL level may serve as an important marker of disease severity in IE and may represent a link between vascular damage, embolic complications, and disease progression.

Remnant cholesterol is associated with the progression and regression of metabolic dysfunction-associated steatotic liver disease in Chinese adults. J Clin Lipidol 2024:S1933-2874(24)00044-8. [PMID: 38960813 DOI: 10.1016/j.jacl.2024.03.006] [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: 08/01/2023] [Revised: 01/06/2024] [Accepted: 03/21/2024] [Indexed: 07/05/2024]
Abstract
BACKGROUND The aim of this study was to explore the associations of serum remnant cholesterol (RC) levels with the progression and regression of metabolic dysfunction-associated steatotic liver disease (MASLD) in Chinese adults. METHODS We conducted a cross-sectional study in 13,903 individuals who underwent transient elastography tests (cohort 1) and a longitudinal study in 17,752 individuals who underwent at least two health check-up exams with abdominal ultrasound (cohort 2). Anthropometric and biochemical parameters were collected. Serum RC levels were calculated. Noninvasive fibrosis indices such as FIB-4 were evaluated in cohort 2. RESULTS In cohort 1, serum RC levels were positively and independently associated with the severity of hepatic steatosis and liver fibrosis according to logistic regression analysis. In cohort 2, baseline serum RC levels were increased in participants with the incidence of MASLD and decreased in participants with the regression of MASLD during the follow-up period. Baseline serum RC levels were independently associated with an increased risk of development and a decreased likelihood of regression of MASLD: the fully adjusted hazard ratios (HR) were 2.785 (95 % CI 2.332-3.236, P < 0.001) and 2.925 (95 % CI 2.361-3.623, P < 0.001), respectively. In addition, when we used FIB-4 to evaluate liver fibrosis, baseline serum RC levels were positively correlated with the incidence of high-intermediate probability of advanced fibrosis. However, we did not find an association between serum RC levels and the regression of liver fibrosis. CONCLUSION Serum RC levels are independently correlated with the progression and regression of MASLD in Chinese adults, suggesting that RC may participate in the pathophysiological process of MASLD.

Role of remnant cholesterol in the relationship between physical activity and diabetes mellitus: an intermediary analysis. Front Public Health 2024; 12:1322244. [PMID: 38532980 PMCID: PMC10963391 DOI: 10.3389/fpubh.2024.1322244] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/16/2023] [Accepted: 02/26/2024] [Indexed: 03/28/2024] Open
Abstract
Objective The purpose of this investigation was to evaluate the potential link between physical activity (PA) and the heightened susceptibility to diabetes mellitus (DM), by examining whether remnant cholesterol (RC) might act as a mediator in this correlation. Methods The research utilized data from the National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey, spanning from 2005 to 2018. Various statistical analyses were conducted for continuous and categorical variables, including the t-test, ANOVA, and χ2 test. Logistic regression was employed to analyze the association between PA and DM across three distinct models. Mediation analysis was also conducted to assess the potential mediation effects of RC. Results The study encompassed a total of 9,149 participants, and it was observed that individuals with DM exhibited lower levels of PA. Furthermore, PA levels were found to be associated with all participant characteristics except poverty income ratio, fasting blood glucose, and HOMA-IR (p < 0.05). After adjusting for covariates (Model 3), individuals with high PA levels demonstrated a decreased likelihood of developing DM compared to those in the low PA group (OR: 0.73, 95%CI: 0.54-0.99). A significant dose-response relationship was identified (p < 0.05). No interaction between PA and RC in relation to DM risk was detected, and RC was found to serve as a mediator in the connection between PA and DM. After considering covariates, the mediating effect of RC between PA and DM weakens. Discussion Our findings suggest that higher levels of PA are linked to a reduced risk of DM in U.S. adults, with RC likely playing a mediating role.

Abstract
AIM A high level of directly measured small dense low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (sdLDL-C) is a strong risk factor for ischemic heart disease (IHD). However, it remains unclear whether estimated sdLDL-C level is a predictor for IHD. We investigated the associations of new onset of IHD with levels of total cholesterol (TC), high-density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL-C), non-HDL-C, triglycerides (TG), LDL-C and calculated sdLDL-C by Sampson's equation. METHODS After exclusion of subjects with IHD or those with TG ≥ 800 mg/dL, a total of 18,176 subjects (men/women: 11,712/6,464, mean age: 46 years) were recruited among 28,990 Japanese individuals who received annual health checkups. RESULTS During the 10-year follow-up period, 456 men (3.9%) and 121 women (1.9%) newly developed IHD. Multivariable Cox proportional hazard analyses after adjustment of age, sex, obesity, smoking habit, family history of IHD, estimated glomerular filtration rate, hypertension and diabetes mellitus at baseline showed that the hazard ratio (HR) (1.38 [95% confidence interval: 1.03-1.85]) for new onset of IHD in subjects with the 4th quartile (Q4) of sdLDL-C (≥ 42 mg/dL) was significantly higher than that in subjects with the 1st quartile (Q1) (≤ 24 mg/dL) as the reference, though the adjusted HRs in subjects with Q2-Q4 of TC, HDL-C, non-HDL-C, LDL-C and TG were comparable with those in subjects with Q1 of the respective lipid fractions. The adjusted HR with a restricted cubic spline increased with a higher level of calculated sdLDL-C as a continuous value at baseline. CONCLUSIONS sdLDL-C level calculated by Sampson's equation is a predominant predictor for the development of IHD in a general Japanese population.

Abstract
BACKGROUND AND AIM Remnant cholesterol (RC) has garnered increasing attention recently due to its association with adverse cardiovascular events. However, the relationship between RC levels and inflammation remains unclear. The goal of this study was to investigate and compare the predictive value of multiple inflammatory biomarkers for high RC in patients with percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI). METHODS AND RESULTS Initially, a total of 10,724 consecutive individuals hospitalized for PCI at Fu Wai Hospital in 2013 were enrolled. Finally, 9983 patients receiving dual antiplatelet therapy and drug-eluting stent were selected for analysis. The inflammatory biomarkers included high-sensitivity C-reactive protein (hs-CRP), hs-CRP-to-albumin ratio (CAR), neutrophil-to-lymphocyte ratio (NLR), platelet-to-lymphocyte ratio (PLR), lymphocyte-to-monocyte ratio (LMR), lymphocyte-to-hs-CRP ratio (LCR), and systemic immune-inflammation index (SII). Patients were divided into higher RC and lower RC groups based on the median RC level. Multivariate logistic regression showed that hs-CRP (OR per SD: 1.254), CAR (OR per SD: 1.245), PLR (OR per SD: 1.139), and SII (OR per SD: 1.077) were associated with high RC (≥median), while LCR (OR per SD: 0.792) was associated with low RC ( CONCLUSIONS In PCI patients, hs-CRP, CAR, PLR, LCR, and SII were independently associated with RC levels. Among these inflammatory biomarkers, hs-CRP conferred better prediction for high RC. This investigation further supports the close relationship between inflammation and residual lipid risk biomarker RC.

Abstract
Contrast-induced nephropathy (CIN) is an acute renal complication that can occur after the use of iodinated contrast media. Remnant cholesterol (RC) is one of the markers of atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease risk. We evaluated the impact of RC on CIN and clinical outcomes after coronary angiography (CAG) and/or percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI). Consecutive patients (n = 3332) undergoing CAG and/or PCI were assessed in this retrospective study. Patients were divided into four groups based on baseline RC levels. In the quartile analysis, RC were associated with a higher risk of CIN, especially when RC ≤0.20 or ≥0.38 mmol/L (P < .05). However, after adjustment, the association of RC with CIN was not significant. There was a significant correlation between RC and repeated revascularization in patients undergoing PCI (P < .001) and driven primarily by the highest quartile level. After adjustment, this remained statistically significant (adjusted odds ratio (aOR) 4.06; 95% CI 2.10-7.87; P < .001). This is the first large study to show a possible association between RC and the risk of CIN after CAG and/or PCI; however, this finding was not further confirmed after adjustment. The complex clinical risk profile of patients, rather than RC itself, may contribute to the risk of CIN in this high-risk subgroup.

Abstract
PURPOSE Cholesterol metabolism is a risk factor for cardiovascular disease, and recent studies have shown that cholesterol metabolism poses a residual risk of cardiovascular disease even when conventional lipid risk factors are in the optimal range. The association between remnant cholesterol (RC) and cardiovascular disease has been demonstrated; however, its association with hypertension, type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM), and the concomitance of the two diseases requires further study. This study aimed to evaluate the association of RC with hypertension, T2DM, and both in a large sample of the U.S. population, and to further explore the potential mechanisms involved. METHODS This cross-sectional study used data from the 2005-2018 cycles of the National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (N = 17,749). Univariable and multivariable logistic regression analyses were performed to explore the relationships of RC with hypertension, T2DM, and both comorbidities. A restricted cubic spline regression model was used to reveal the dose effect. Mediation analyses were performed to explore the potential mediating roles of inflammation-related indicators in these associations. RESULTS Of the 17,749 participants included (mean [SD] age: 41.57 [0.23] years; women: 8983 (50.6%), men: 8766 (49.4%)), the prevalence of hypertension, T2DM, and their co-occurrence was 32.6%, 16.1%, and 11.0%, respectively. Higher RC concentrations were associated with an increased risk of hypertension, T2DM, and their co-occurrence (adjusted odds ratios for per unit increase in RC were 1.068, 2.259, and 2.362, and 95% confidence intervals were 1.063-1.073, 1.797-2.838, and 1.834-3.041, respectively), with a linear dose-response relationship. Even when conventional lipids were present at normal levels, positive associations were observed. Inflammation-related indicators (leukocytes, lymphocytes, monocytes, and neutrophils) partially mediated these associations. Among these, leukocytes had the greatest mediating effect (10.8%, 14.5%, and 14.0%, respectively). CONCLUSION The results of this study provide evidence that RC is associated with the risk of hypertension, T2DM, and their co-occurrence, possibly mediated by an inflammatory response.

OBJECTIVE Remnant cholesterol (RC) was associated with carotid atherosclerosis in patients with clinical settings. But the value of RC as a risk management indicator for subclinical carotid atherosclerosis in health examination has not been fully determined. METHODS This was a real-world, cross-sectional study including 12317 Chinese general population. Carotid intima-media thickness (CIMT) and carotid atherosclerotic plaque (CAP) were assessed by ultrasound. RC was calculated by total cholesterol minus low density lipoprotein-cholesterol (LDL-C) minus high density lipoprotein-cholesterol (HDL-C).Carotid atherosclerosis (CAS) was defined as a composite of increased CIMT and CAP. Multivariable logistic regression models were used to investigate the association of RC and CAS, increased CIMT and CAP. RESULTS Among 12317 participants (mean age: 51.21±13.76 years; 8303 men and 4014 women), the prevalence of CAS and increased CIMT was higher in participants with higher RC levels (P for trend<0.01). After multivariable adjustment, the highest quartile of RC was significantly associated with higher risk of CAS (OR: 1.45 95%CI: 1.26-1.67) and increased CIMT (OR: 1.48 95%CI: 1.29-1.71) with the lowest quartile of RC as reference. And the relationships remained significant even after adjustment of LDL-C and HDL-C. Every 1-SD increase of RC level was positively associated with 17% risk increment for CAS (6-30%) and 20% risk increment for increased CIMT (8-34%). CONCLUSION Elevated serum RC levels were significantly associated with CAS and increased CIMT among Chinese general population, independent of LDL-C and HDL-C. RC evaluation could be applied for the risk management of early stage of subclinical carotid atherosclerosis in health examination.

Estimated sdLDL-C for predicting high-risk coronary plaque features in psoriasis: a prospective observational study. Lipids Health Dis 2023; 22:55. [PMID: 37106374 PMCID: PMC10134516 DOI: 10.1186/s12944-023-01819-x] [Citation(s) in RCA: 5] [Impact Index Per Article: 5.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/20/2022] [Accepted: 04/21/2023] [Indexed: 04/29/2023] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND Psoriasis (PSO) is a skin disorder with systemic inflammation and high coronary artery disease risk. A distinct lipid phenotype occurs in psoriasis, which is characterized by high plasma triglycerides (TGs) with typically normal or even low LDL-C. The extent to which cholesterol on LDL subfractions, such as small dense LDL-C (sdLDL-C), are associated with vulnerable coronary plaque characteristics in PSO remains elusive. METHODS A recently developed equation for estimating sdLDL-C from the standard lipid panel was utilized in a PSO cohort (n = 200) with 4-year follow-up of 75 subjects. Coronary plaque burden was assessed by quantitative coronary computed tomography angiography (CCTA). Multivariate regression analyses were used for establishing associations and prognostic value of estimated sdLDL-C. RESULTS Estimated sdLDL-C was positively associated with non-calcified burden (NCB) and fibro-fatty burden (FFB), which remained significant after multivariate adjustment for NCB (β = 0.37; P = 0.050) and LDL-C adjustment for FFB (β = 0.29; P < 0.0001). Of note, total LDL-C calculated by the Friedewald equation was not able to capture these associations in the study cohort. Moreover, in the regression modelling estimated sdLDL-C was significantly predicting necrotic burden progression over 4 years follow-up (P = 0.015), whereas LDL-C did not. Finally, small LDL particles (S-LDLP) and small HDL particles (S-HDLP), along with large and medium TG-rich lipoproteins (TRLPs) had the most significant positive correlation with estimated sdLDL-C. CONCLUSIONS Estimated sdLDL-C has a stronger association than LDL-C with high-risk features of coronary atherosclerotic plaques in psoriasis patients. CLINICAL TRIAL REGISTRATION URL: https://www.

Abstract
The public health issue of glucolipid metabolic disorders (GLMD) has grown significantly, posing a grave threat to human wellness. Its prevalence is rising yearly and tends to affect younger people. Metaflammation is an important mechanism regulating body metabolism. Through a complicated multi-organ crosstalk network involving numerous signaling pathways such as NLRP3/caspase-1/IL-1, NF-B, p38 MAPK, IL-6/STAT3, and PI3K/AKT, it influences systemic metabolic regulation. Numerous inflammatory mediators are essential for preserving metabolic balance, but more research is needed to determine how they contribute to the co-morbidities of numerous metabolic diseases. Whether controlling the inflammatory response can influence the progression of GLMD determines the therapeutic strategy for such diseases. This review thoroughly examines the role of metaflammation in GLMD and combs the research progress of related therapeutic approaches, including inflammatory factor-targeting drugs, traditional Chinese medicine (TCM), and exercise therapy. Multiple metabolic diseases, including diabetes, non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD), cardiovascular disease, and others, respond therapeutically to anti-inflammatory therapy on the whole. Moreover, we emphasize the value and open question of anti-inflammatory-based means for treating GLMD.

Temporal relationship between atherogenic dyslipidemia and inflammation and their joint cumulative effect on type 2 diabetes onset: a longitudinal cohort study. BMC Med 2023; 21:31. [PMID: 36691001 PMCID: PMC9870774 DOI: 10.1186/s12916-023-02729-6] [Citation(s) in RCA: 7] [Impact Index Per Article: 7.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/14/2022] [Accepted: 01/09/2023] [Indexed: 01/25/2023] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND Concurrent atherogenic dyslipidemia and elevated inflammation are commonly observed in overt hyperglycemia and have long been proposed to contribute to diabetogenesis. However, the temporal relationship between them and the effect of their cumulative co-exposure on future incident type 2 diabetes (T2D) remains unclear. METHODS Longitudinal analysis of data on 52,224 participants from a real-world, prospective cohort study (Kailuan Study) was performed to address the temporal relationship between high-sensitivity C-reactive protein (hsCRP) and the atherogenic index of plasma (AIP, calculated as triglyceride/high-density lipoprotein) in an approximately 4-year exposure period (2006/2007 to 2010/2011). After excluding 8824 participants with known diabetes, 43,360 nondiabetic participants were included for further analysis of the T2D outcome. Cox regression models were used to examine the adjusted hazard ratios (aHRs) upon the cumulative hsCRP (CumCRP) and AIP (CumAIP) in the exposure period. RESULTS In temporal analysis, the adjusted standardized correlation coefficient (β1) of hsCRP_2006/2007 and AIP_2010/2011 was 0.0740 (95% CI, 0.0659 to 0.0820; P < 0.001), whereas the standardized correlation coefficient (β2) of AIP_2006/2007 and hsCRP_2010/2011 was - 0.0293 (95% CI, - 0.0385 to - 0.0201; P < 0.001), which was significantly less than β1 (P < 0.001). During a median follow-up of 7.9 years, 5,118 T2D cases occurred. Isolated exposure to CumAIP or CumCRP was dose-dependently associated with T2D risks, independent of traditional risk factors. Significant interactions were observed between the median CumAIP (- 0.0701) and CumCRP thresholds (1, 3 mg/L) (P = 0.0308). Compared to CumAIP < - 0.0701 and CumCRP < 1 mg/L, those in the same CumAIP stratum but with increasing CumCRP levels had an approximately 1.5-fold higher T2D risk; those in higher CumAIP stratum had significantly higher aHRs (95% CIs): 1.64 (1.45-1.86), 1.87 (1.68-2.09), and 2.04 (1.81-2.30), respectively, in the CumCRP < 1, 1 ≤ CumCRP < 3, CumCRP ≥ 3 mg/L strata. Additionally, the T2D risks in the co-exposure were more prominent in nonhypertensive, nondyslipidemic, nonprediabetic, or female participants. CONCLUSIONS These findings suggest a stronger association between elevated hsCRP and future AIP changes than vice versa and highlight the urgent need for combined assessment and management of chronic inflammation and atherogenic dyslipidemia in primary prevention, particularly for those with subclinical risks of T2D.

Phenolic compounds can induce systemic and central immunomodulation, which result in a neuroprotective effect. J Food Biochem 2022; 46:e14260. [PMID: 35633197 DOI: 10.1111/jfbc.14260] [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: 02/01/2022] [Revised: 03/25/2022] [Accepted: 05/02/2022] [Indexed: 01/13/2023]
Abstract
Inflammation may negatively impact health, particularly that of the central nervous system. Phenolic compounds are bioactive molecules present in fruits and vegetables with potential anti-inflammatory effects. The purpose of the present work is to review the immunomodulatory bioactivities of phenolic compounds in the periphery and in the central nervous system. Results show that various types of phenolics are able to counter diet- or pathogen-induced systemic inflammation (among others) in various models. In vitro data show significant effects of flavonoids and phenolic acids in particular; similar bioactivities were reported in vivo, when administering them as pure compounds or from fruit and vegetable extracts that contain them. In the central nervous system, phenolics counter chronic inflammation and aggressive acute inflammatory processes, such as ischemic events, when administered preemptively and even therapeutically. We therefore conclude that the immunomodulatory potential of phenolic compounds can maintain an adequate immune response; their regular consumption should therefore be prioritized in order to maintain health. PRACTICAL APPLICATIONS: The immune response must be carefully regulated in order to avoid its deleterious effects. The present work highlights how phenolic compounds, dietary components ubiquitous in everyday diet, are able to maintain it within an adequate range. As humans are exposed to more proinflammatory stimuli (inadequate dietary pattern, mental stress, environmental pollution, chronic diseases, etc.), it becomes necessary to counter them, and consuming adequate amounts of foods that contain compounds with this ability is a rather simple strategy. Thus, the present work highlights how fruits and vegetables can help to maintain an adequate immune response that can preserve systemic health and that of the central nervous system. Furthermore, specific compounds contained in them can also be ideal candidates for additional in-depth studies, which can potentially lead to the development of potent, targeted, and safe anti-inflammatory molecules.

Modulation of Lipid Profile and Lipoprotein Subfractions in Overweight/Obese Women at Risk of Cardiovascular Diseases through the Consumption of Apple/Berry Juice. Antioxidants (Basel) 2022; 11:2239. [PMID: 36421425 PMCID: PMC9686658 DOI: 10.3390/antiox11112239] [Citation(s) in RCA: 2] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/04/2022] [Revised: 11/03/2022] [Accepted: 11/08/2022] [Indexed: 07/30/2023] Open
Abstract
Polyphenol-rich foods protect the cellular systems of the human body from oxidative damage, thereby reducing the risk of chronic diseases such as cardiovascular disease (CVD). We investigated the effect of phenolic-rich apple/berry juice (chokeberry, blueberry, and cranberry) on lipidemic profiles in overweight/obese women. The 6 week single-arm pre-post intervention study involved 20 women (mean age 52.95 ± 5.8 years, body mass index ≥25 kg/m2, and ≥1 CVD risk factors) consuming 300 mL/day of the apple/berry juice. Lipid profile, low-density lipoprotein (LDL) subfractions assessed using Lipoprint® electrophoresis, and other parameters related to cardiovascular risk (C-reactive protein, glucose, blood pressure) were analyzed before and again after the intervention in the monitored group of women. High-density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL-C) increased from 1.30 ± 0.29 to 1.55 ± 0.32, magnesium from 0.85 ± 0.03 to 0.90 ± 0.05, and total antioxidant status from 1.68 ± 0.08 to 1.81 ± 0.10. The LDL/HDL ratio significantly decreased from 3.40 ± 0.99 to 2.66 ± 0.63 mmol/L, and the glucose from 5.50 ± 0.72 to 5.24 ± 0.74 mmol/L. However, the hs-CRP did not change significantly. Women with atherogenic subfractions LDL3-7 at baseline (n = 6) showed a significant reduction from 0.45 ± 0.19 to 0.09 ± 0.07 mmol/L. Overweight/obese women may benefit from apple/berry juice as part of a healthy lifestyle to improve their lipid profile, and thus, contribute to cardiovascular health.

Association between remnant lipoprotein cholesterol, high-sensitivity C-reactive protein, and risk of atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease events in the Multi-Ethnic Study of Atherosclerosis (MESA). J Clin Lipidol 2022; 16:870-877. [PMID: 36180367 DOI: 10.1016/j.jacl.2022.09.005] [Citation(s) in RCA: 9] [Impact Index Per Article: 4.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/20/2022] [Revised: 09/03/2022] [Accepted: 09/13/2022] [Indexed: 10/14/2022]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Elevated remnant-lipoprotein (RLP)-cholesterol (RLP-C) and high-sensitivity C-reactive protein (hsCRP) are each individually associated with atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease (ASCVD). OBJECTIVE To evaluate the interplay of nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR)-derived RLP-C and hsCRP and their association with ASCVD in the Multi-Ethnic Study of Atherosclerosis (MESA). METHODS Lipoprotein particles were measured using NMR spectroscopic analysis at baseline. RLP-C includes very-low-density lipoprotein cholesterol and intermediate-density lipoprotein cholesterol. Four groups were created as follows: Group 1: RLP-C ≤ median (≤29.14 mg/dL) and hsCRP < 2 mg/L; Group 2: RLP-C ≤ median and hsCRP≥ 2 mg/L; Group 3: RLP-C > median and hsCRP level < 2 mg/L; and Group 4: RLP-C > median and hsCRP level ≥ 2 mg/L. Kaplan-Meier survival curves and multivariable-adjusted Cox proportional hazard models were used to examine the relationship between RLP-C and hsCRP with incident ASCVD. RESULTS A total of 6,720 MESA participants (mean age 62.2 y, 53% female) with a median follow-up of 15.6 years were included. In the fully adjusted model, compared to those in the reference group (Group 1), participants in Group 2, Group 3, and Group 4 demonstrated a 20% (95% CI, -2%-48%), 18% (-4%-44%), and 43% (18%-76%) increased risk of incident ASCVD events, respectively (p < 0.01). An additive and multiplicative interaction between RLP-C and hsCRP was not statistically significant. CONCLUSION NMR-derived RLP-C and hsCRP showed a similar independent association with incident ASCVD. Notably, the combination of increased RLP-C and hsCRP was associated with an increased risk of future ASCVD events.

Association of remnant cholesterol and lipid parameters with new-onset carotid plaque in Chinese population. Front Cardiovasc Med 2022; 9:903390. [PMID: 36110413 PMCID: PMC9468421 DOI: 10.3389/fcvm.2022.903390] [Citation(s) in RCA: 2] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/24/2022] [Accepted: 08/09/2022] [Indexed: 11/24/2022] Open
Abstract
Background Remnant lipoprotein cholesterol (RC) is an independent risk factor for cardiovascular disease (CVD). However, the relationships of remnant cholesterol and other conventional lipid parameters with new-onset carotid plaque are not fully understood in the Chinese community-based population. Materials and methods A total of 872 plaque-free participants (51.39 ± 4.96 years old) with no history of CVD were included in this study. The plasma concentrations of RC were calculated by subtracting low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C) and high-density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL-C) from total cholesterol (TC). Multivariate regression models were used to evaluate and compare the associations between RC and other lipid parameters and new-onset carotid plaque. Results After a mean 6.77-year follow-up, the incidence of new-onset carotid plaque was 188 (21.56%). RC was significantly associated with new-onset carotid plaque [Odd ratio (OR) = 1.57 per 1 mmol/L increase, 95% confidence interval (CI): 1.03–2.41, p = 0.038]. The highest tertile of RC (T3 group) had the highest risk of new-onset carotid plaque (OR = 2.53, 95% CI: 1.63–3.95). Similar results were seen for increased other lipid parameters, but decreased HDL-C levels. When adding another lipid parameter into the adjusted model with RC simultaneously, only RC remained significantly associated with new-onset carotid plaque after adjusting for other lipid parameters (all p value < 0.005). Furthermore, RC was strongly associated with new-onset carotid plaque in participants with lower baseline LDL-C levels. Conclusion Increased RC levels were superior to other conventional lipid parameters to be associated with new-onset carotid plaque in the Chinese community-based population. Furthermore, RC should be considered in participants with lower LDL-C levels for the purpose of early atherosclerosis prevention.

Synergistic effect of the commonest residual risk factors, remnant cholesterol, lipoprotein(a), and inflammation, on prognosis of statin-treated patients with chronic coronary syndrome. J Transl Med 2022; 20:243. [PMID: 35619146 PMCID: PMC9134647 DOI: 10.1186/s12967-022-03448-x] [Citation(s) in RCA: 7] [Impact Index Per Article: 3.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/06/2022] [Accepted: 05/18/2022] [Indexed: 12/24/2022] Open
Abstract
Background Currently, remnant cholesterol (RC), lipoprotein(a) [Lp(a)], and inflammation are considered the principal residual cardiovascular risk (RCVR) factors. This study sought to evaluate the combined impact of RC, Lp(a), and inflammation on prognosis of statin-treated patients with chronic coronary syndrome (CCS), which has not been investigated. Methods A total of 6839 patients with CCS were consecutively enrolled. Baseline RC, Lp(a), and high-sensitivity C-reactive protein (hsCRP) concentrations were measured and their medians were used for categorizations. All patients were followed for the major adverse cardiovascular events (MACEs), including cardiovascular death, non-fatal myocardial infarction, and stroke. The individual and combined effects of RC, Lp(a), and hsCRP on MACEs were examined and stratification analysis according to low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C) was performed. Results Over an average of 54.93 ± 18.59 months follow-up, 462 MACEs were recorded. Multivariate Cox analysis showed that elevated RC and Lp(a) levels were significantly associated with an increased risk of MACEs, while high hsCRP levels were related to a slightly but non-significantly increased MACEs risk. Moreover, when participants were subgrouped according to RC, Lp(a), and hsCRP levels together, only High RC-High Lp(a)-High hsCRP group had significantly higher risk of MACEs [hazard ratio (HR) 1.99, 95% confidence interval (CI) 1.15–3.47] compared with the reference group (Low RC-Low Lp(a)-Low hsCRP), especially in patients with LDL-C < 2.6 mmol/L. Conclusions The combination of elevated levels of RC, Lp(a), and hsCRP potentiated the adverse effect on MACEs among statin-treated patients with CCS, suggesting that multiple RCVR factors assessment may be a better strategy to improve stratification in very-high risk population.

Increased estimated remnant-like particle cholesterol is associated with impaired coronary collateralization in patients with coronary chronic total occlusions. Diabetol Metab Syndr 2022; 14:57. [PMID: 35449027 PMCID: PMC9022345 DOI: 10.1186/s13098-022-00829-6] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/14/2021] [Accepted: 04/06/2022] [Indexed: 11/10/2022] Open
Abstract
AIMS This study intends to explore whether, or to what extent, the estimated remnant-like particle cholesterol was associated with coronary collateralization in patients with chronic total occlusion lesions. METHODS 792 patients with at least one coronary chronic total occlusion lesion were enrolled. Serum level of lipid profiles were determined and the estimated remnant-like particle cholesterol was calculated. The development of coronary collateralization was graded as low (Rentrop score 0-1) or high (Rentrop score 2-3) collateralization according to the Rentrop classification system and then the association between the estimated remnant-like particle cholesterol and collateralization was assessed. RESULTS 222 participants were classified into low collateralization group. The estimated remnant-like particle cholesterol level was significantly higher in low collateralization (P < 0.001) and type 2 diabetes mellitus (P = 0.009) group. To further explore the association between the estimated remnant-like particle cholesterol and the development of coronary collateralization, these patients were divided into 3 groups based on the estimated remnant-like particle cholesterol tertiles. The prevalence of low collateralization increased stepwise with the tertile groups (T1 12.5% vs. 27.1% vs. 45.3%, P < 0.001). Multivariate logistic regression analysis showed that the estimated remnant-like particle cholesterol was independently associated with the under-developed collateralization, with an OR and 95%CI of 2.34 (1.46-3.74) and 4.91 (3.01-8.02) in the T2 and T3 group, respectively. The following receiver-operating characteristic analysis indicated that the diagnostic value of estimated remnant-like particle cholesterol for the low collateralization was 0.696, with a cut-off value of 0.485, and its sensitivity was 82.88%. Besides, the addition of the estimated remnant-like particle cholesterol into the baseline model consisting of traditional risk factors could improve the incremental value of the discrimination of impaired collateralization only in overall and type 2 diabetes mellitus populations. CONCLUSIONS The increased estimated remnant-like particle cholesterol is independently associated with impaired collateralization in patients with coronary chronic total occlusion lesions. Therapies targeting at remnant-like particle cholesterol may be needed in advanced coronary artery disease patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus not suitable for vascular revascularization.

Abstract
Background Lipid management in people at high risk of stroke is an important measurement to prevent the occurrence of stroke. The study aims to investigate the association between sdLDL and cardiovascular and cerebrovascular events in high‐risk stroke populations. Methods This was a prospective study. Screened from 15,933 individuals aged >40 years in April 2013 and followed up at 3rd, 6th, 12th, and 24th months, 823 participants met the screening criteria and were investigated for clinical data and biochemical parameters. Results A total of 286 subjects had varying degrees of carotid stenosis, and 18 subjects experienced cardiovascular and cerebrovascular events during the two‐year follow‐up period. There was no positive correlation between sdLDL and carotid stenosis. Carotid stenosis and extent of carotid stenosis involvement did not predict cardiovascular and cerebrovascular events in patients with high‐risk stroke, while sdLDL did. The sdLDL level in the events group was significantly higher than those in the no event group (p = 0.002). In the events group, the risk of events in the fourth quartile of sdLDL was 10.136 times higher than in the first quartile (HR = 10.136, 95% CI: 1.298–79.180, p = 0.027). Conclusions sdLDL was positively correlated with the incidence of cardiovascular and cerebrovascular events, which can predict the occurrence of an event and provide a scientific basis for early prevention.

Abstract
Aim. To study of the relationship between cardiovascular risk factors and biological vascular age.Material and methods. The biological vascular age was estimated using models based on the arterial wall parameters. Using multiple logistic and linear regression, we studied the relationship between the biological vascular age and cardiovascular risk factors in 143 people without cardiovascular disease (CVD). Persons with a positive difference between the vascular and chronological age were assigned to the “old” vascular group, and persons with no or negative difference between the vascular and chronological age were assigned to the “young” vascular group.Results. Linear regression in the “young” vascular group showed an inverse relationship between the difference between the vascular and chronological age with the levels of low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (p=0,001; β±SE=-1,67±0,47), triglycerides (p=0,017; β±SE=-1,66±0,68), urea (p=0,025; β±SE=-0,89±0,39) and insulin resistance index (p=0,001; β±SE=-1,22±0,36). In the “old” vascular group, a direct relationship was found between the difference between the vascular and chronological age and central systolic blood pressure (p=0,015; β±SE=0,10±0,04). According to logistic regression, the likelihood of having “old” vessels increased by 1,23 times with an increase in blood glucose levels by 0,5 mmol/l (p=0,044; odds ratio (OR)=1,23; 95% confidence interval (CI): 1,011,51), the presence of hypertension (p=0,034; OR=3,11; 95% CI: 1,09-8,86) and type 2 diabetes (p=0,025; OR=3,61; 95% CI: 1,1711,09), as well as decreased by 2 times with an increase in high-density lipoprotein cholesterol by 0,3 mmol/l (p=0,003; OR=0,5; 95% CI: 0,32-0,79).Conclusion. The difference between the biological vascular age and chronological age is associated with traditional CVD risk factors.

Association of triglyceride-rich lipoprotein-cholesterol with recurrent cardiovascular events in statin-treated patients according to different inflammatory status. Atherosclerosis 2021; 330:29-35. [PMID: 34225103 DOI: 10.1016/j.atherosclerosis.2021.06.907] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/02/2021] [Revised: 06/13/2021] [Accepted: 06/23/2021] [Indexed: 10/21/2022]
Abstract
BACKGROUND AND AIMS The association of triglyceride-rich lipoprotein-cholesterol (TRL-C) with recurrent cardiovascular events (RCVEs) has not been studied. Moreover, whether inflammation can affect TRL-C-associated cardiovascular risk is unknown. This study sought to examine the association between TRL-C and RCVEs, and whether this relationship is modulated by systemic inflammation in statin-treated patients with coronary artery disease (CAD) and nearly normal triglyceride. METHODS In this study, 6723 CAD patients were consecutively enrolled, following a first CVE with triglyceride <2.3 mmol/L. Baseline lipid profile and high-sensitivity C-reactive protein (hsCRP) levels were determined. All patients were searched for RCVEs. The risk of RCVEs was assessed across quartiles (Q) of baseline TRL-C and further stratified by the median of hsCRP. RESULTS Over a mean follow-up of 58.91 ± 17.79 months, 538 RCVEs were recorded. After adjustment for potential confounders, Q4 of TRL-C was significantly associated with the risk of RCVEs, which remained unchanged after hsCRP stratification. When subjects were grouped according to both TRL-C and hsCRP levels, patients with Q4 of TRL-C and hsCRP had the highest increase of the risk of RCVEs compared with the reference group (TRL-C Q1-3 and hsCRP Q1-3; HR, 1.90; 95%CI: 1.27-2.87). Furthermore, adding TRL-C to the original predicting model led to a slight but significant improvement. CONCLUSIONS The present analysis firstly showed that elevated TRL-C was associated with an increased RCVEs risk in statin-treated patients with CAD independent of systemic inflammation, suggesting that it might be a useful marker for risk stratification and a treatment target in this patient population.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES Small dense low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (sdLDL-C) might be a better cardiovascular disease (CVD) indicator than low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C); however, details regarding its epidemiology remain elusive. The present study aimed at evaluating the association between the demographic factors, such as age, gender and menopausal status, and sdLDL-C levels and sdLDL-C/LDL-C ratio in the Japanese population. DESIGN This was a cross-sectional study. SETTING 13 rural districts in Japan, 2010-2017. PARTICIPANTS This study included 5208 participants (2397 men and 2811 women), who underwent the health mass screening that was conducted in accordance with the medical care system for the elderly and obtained informed consent for this study. RESULTS In total, 517 premenopausal women (mean age ±SD, 45.1±4.2 years), 2294 postmenopausal women (66.5±8.8 years) and 2397 men (64.1±11.2 years) were analysed. In men, the sdLDL-C levels and sdLDL-C/LDL-C ratio increased during younger adulthood, peaked (36.4 mg/dL, 0.35) at 50-54 years, and then decreased. In women, relatively regular increasing trends of sdLDL-C level and sdLDL-C/LDL-C ratio until approximately 65 years (32.7 mg/dL, 0.28), followed by a downward or pleated trend. Given the beta value of age, body mass index, fasting glucose and smoking and drinking status by multiple linear regression analysis, standardised sdLDL-C levels and sdLDL-C/LDL-C ratio in 50-year-old men, premenopausal women and postmenopausal women were 26.6, 22.7 and 27.4 mg/dL and 0.24, 0.15 and 0.23, respectively. The differences between premenopausal and postmenopausal women were significant (p<0.001). CONCLUSIONS SdLDL-C and sdLDL-C/LDL-C ratios showed different distributions by age, gender and menopausal status. A subgroup-specific approach would be necessary to implement sdLDL-C for CVD prevention strategies, fully considering age-related trends, gender differences and menopausal status.

Abstract
The relationship between small dense low‐density lipoprotein cholesterol (sdLDL‐C) and different cardiovascular events has been observed in several large community studies, and the results have been controversial. However, there is currently no cross‐sectional or longitudinal follow‐up study on sdLDL‐C in the Chinese hypertension population. We analyzed the association of plasma sdLDL‐C levels with major adverse cardiovascular events in 1325 subjects from a longitudinal follow‐up community‐based population in Beijing, China. During the follow‐up period, a total of 191 subjects had MACEs. Cox regression analysis showed that sdLDL‐C is a major risk factor for MACEs independent of sex, age, BMI, hypertension, diabetes, smoking, SBP, DBP, FBG, eGFR in the general community population (1.013 (1.001 −1.025, P < .05)), but the correlation disappeared after adjusting for TC and HDL‐C in Model 3. Cox analysis showed that hypertension combined with high level of sdLDL‐C was still the risk factor for MACEs ((2.079 (1.039‐4.148)). Our findings in the Chinese cohort support that sdLDL‐C is a risk factor for major adverse cardiovascular events in hypertension subjects.

J Clin Lab Anal 2020; 35:e23660. [PMID: 33377258 PMCID: PMC7957989 DOI: 10.1002/jcla.23660] [Citation(s) in RCA: 2] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/19/2020] [Revised: 10/11/2020] [Accepted: 11/06/2020] [Indexed: 12/24/2022] Open
Abstract
Background We validated the performance of seven different reagents of peroxidase method for sdLDL‐C in two automatic analyzers that are common in Chinese laboratories. Methods Seven commercially available sdLDL‐C assays were analyzed with the Beckman AU5400 and Mindray BS2000 automatic analyzers. A total of 336 blood samples were collected and the reference interval was also validated in 298 apparently healthy individuals. Serum samples were used for method comparison of precision, recovery, lower limit of detection, comparison and concurrence analysis, as well as reference interval for the Mindray reagent. Results The repeatability CV% of the seven sdLDL‐C assays were 0.81%~3.66% for Mindray BS2000 and 0.76%~3.91% for Beckman AU5400, while Total CVs for Mindray BS2000 sdLDL‐C assay were 1.34%~4.81%, and that of Beckman AU5400 were 2.25%~10.33%. The measured recovery rates of sdLDL‐C assays were within the allowable ±10% deviation range. There was no obvious difference between the reagents in the lower limit detection. There was a difference between the validation results of the reference range and the manufacturer's.BSBE, Mindray, and Dongou had a high degree of association with DENKA SEIKEN on Mindray BS2000, while BSBE, Mindray, Dongou and Merit Choice had a high degree of association with DENKA SEIKEN on Beckman AU5400. Passing–Bablok regression showed excellent linear correlation between BSBE and Mindray and DENKA SEIKEN and on Beckman AU5400. Conclusions Our results indicate that the basic performance can meet the testing requirements, but the comparability between them is still insufficient.

Feng X, Guo Q, Zhou S, Sun T, Liu Y, Zhou Z, Zhou Y. Could remnant-like particle cholesterol become a risk factor in diabetic menopausal women with coronary artery disease? A cross-sectional study of single academic center in China. Lipids Health Dis 2020; 19:44. [PMID: 32178671 PMCID: PMC7076918 DOI: 10.1186/s12944-020-01224-8] [Citation(s) in RCA: 5] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/05/2020] [Accepted: 03/09/2020] [Indexed: 02/07/2023] Open
Abstract
Background and aims It has been confirmed that remnant-like particle cholesterol (RLP-C) mediates the progression of coronary artery disease (CAD). Currently there is limited information on RLP-C in menopausal women. With the special status of diabetes mellitus (DM) combined with the special body changes of the menopausal women, the RLP-C is particularly important when studying the changes that occurred in response to CAD and its associated risk factors. This study discussed whether RLP-C could be an independent risk factor for menopausal women with CAD and DM. Methods The cohort consisted of 4753 menopausal women who had undergone coronary angiography. Subjects were separated into CAD and non-CAD groups, and univariate and multivariate logistic regression analysis of CAD risk factors were performed. All patients with a history of DM were divided into DM subgroups. Then, the univariate and multivariate logistic regression analysis of the risk factors of CAD and the comparison among age groups in the DM subgroup were performed. After age stratification of the DM group, the Kruskal-Wallis test was used to analyze the differences of various lipid indexes among age groups. Results The multivariate logistic regression showed that RLP-C was an independent risk factor for CAD in menopausal women (OR 1.232, 95%CI 1.070–1.419). In the DM subgroup, it was also found that RLP-C was an independent risk factor for CAD (OR 1.366, 95%CI 1.043–1.791). Kruskal-Wallis test analysis found that RLP-C had no significant difference among three groups (P > 0.05). Conclusions RLP-C was proved to be an independent risk factor for menopausal women with CAD and DM.
