Abstract
The morphological characteristics of in-stent restenosis (ISR) in relation to varying degrees of area stenosis have not been comprehensively examined. This study aimed to explore the tissue characteristics of patients experiencing ISR with different degrees of area stenosis through the utilization of optical coherence tomography (OCT). In total, 230 patients with ISR who underwent OCT were divided into the following three groups: area stenosis (AS) < 70% (n = 26); 70-80% (n = 119) and AS ≥ 80% (n = 85). Among the 230 patients, the clinical presentation as stable angina was 61.5% in AS < 70%, followed by 47.2% in 70% < AS ≤ 80%, and 31.8% in AS ≥ 80% (P = 0.010). The OCT findings showed that heterogeneous neointima, ISNA, LRP, neointima rupture, TCFA-like pattern, macrophage infiltration, red and white thrombus was more common with AS increased. Ordinal logistic regression analysis showed that higher AS was associated with previous dyslipidemia (odds ratio [OR], 4.754; 95% confidence interval [CI], 1.419-15.927, P = 0.011), neointimal rupture (OR: 3.640; 95% CI, 1.169-11.325, P = 0.026), red thrombus (OR: 4.482; 95% CI, 1.269-15.816, P = 0.020) and white thrombus (OR: 5.259; 95% CI, 1.660-16.659, P = 0.005). Patients with higher degrees of area stenosis in the context of ISR exhibited a greater number of discernible morphological characteristics as identified through OCT analysis. Furthermore, previous dyslipidemia, neointimal rupture, white thrombus and red thrombus were highly associated with and the progression of ISR lesions.

Abstract
AIM This study aimed to investigate the association between a combination of elevated triglyceride (TG) and reduced high-density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL-C) levels and target lesion revascularization (TLR) following everolimus-eluting stent (EES) implantation. The adverse impact of clinical, lesion, and procedural characteristics on TLR in patients with elevated TG and reduced HDL-C levels was also assessed. METHODS We retrospectively collected data on 3,014 lesions from 2,022 consecutive patients, who underwent EES implantation at Koto Memorial Hospital. Atherogenic dyslipidemia (AD) is defined as a combination of non-fasting serum TG ≥ 175 mg/dL and HDL-C <40 mg/dL. RESULTS AD was observed in 212 lesions in 139 (6.9%) patients. The cumulative incidence of clinically driven TLR was significantly higher in patients with AD than in those without AD (hazard ratio [HR] 2.31, 95% confidence interval [CI] 1.43-3.73, P=0.0006). Subgroup analysis showed that AD increased the risk of TLR with the implantation of small stents (≤ 2.75 mm). Multivariable Cox regression analysis showed that AD was an independent predictor of TLR in the small EES stratum (adjusted HR 3.00, 95% CI 1.53-5.93, P=0.004), whereas the incidence of TLR was similar in the non-small-EES stratum, irrespective of the presence or absence of AD. CONCLUSIONS Patients with AD had a higher risk of TLR after EES implantation, and this risk was greater for lesions treated with small stents.

Abstract
Aim: Coronary artery disease (CAD) is a major contributor to the worldwide prevalence of cardiovascular disease. In-stent restenosis (ISR) is a common complication which can lead to stent implantation failure, necessitating repeated intervention and presenting a significant obstacle for CAD management. Methods: To accurately assess and determine the hub genes associated with ISR, CAD databases from the Gene Expression Omnibus were utilized and weighted gene coexpression network analysis was employed to identify key genes in blood samples. Results: APOB was identified as a risk gene for ISR occurrence. Subsequent correlation analysis of APOB demonstrated a positive association with ISR. Clinical validation further confirmed the predictive value of APOB in ISR detection. Conclusion: We have identified APOB as a critical predictive biomarker for ISR in CAD patients.

Hepatic steatosis evidenced by computed tomography in patients undergoing primary percutaneous coronary intervention for acute myocardial infarction. J Cardiol 2023; 82:414-422. [PMID: 37236437 DOI: 10.1016/j.jjcc.2023.05.008] [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: 01/09/2023] [Revised: 04/20/2023] [Accepted: 04/27/2023] [Indexed: 05/28/2023]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) and acute myocardial infarction (AMI) have common pathological links. This study investigates the prognostic impact of NAFLD assessed as hepatic steatosis (HS) by computed tomography (CT) in AMI patients and explores the mechanistic role of NAFLD in cardiovascular (CV) events using coronary angioscopy (CAS). METHODS We retrospectively examined 342 AMI patients who underwent CT followed by primary percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) between January 2014 and December 2019. HS was defined as a hepatic to spleen attenuation ratio of <1.0 on CT scans. Major cardiac events (MCE) included cardiac death, non-fatal myocardial infarction, target-vessel revascularization, and target-lesion revascularization. RESULTS HS was identified in 88 patients (26 %). Patients with HS were significantly younger, had a higher body mass index, and higher hemoglobin A1c, triglyceride, and malondialdehyde low-density lipoprotein levels (all p < 0.05). MCE occurred more frequently [27 (30.7 %) vs. 39 (15.4 %), p = 0.001] in the HS group than in the non-HS group. In the multivariate analysis, the presence of HS was an independent predictor of MCE after adjusting for metabolic risk factor and liver function markers. Among the 74 patients who underwent CAS for a median of 15 days after primary PCI, 51 (69 %) had intrastent thrombus, which was strongly associated with the presence of HS [18 (35 %) vs. 1 (4 %), p = 0.005]. CONCLUSIONS AMI patients with NAFLD detected by CT often had CAS-derived intrastent thrombi and were at a high risk for CV events. Therefore, these patients should be carefully monitored.

[PMID: 37480052 PMCID: PMC10362700 DOI: 10.1186/s12944-023-01869-1] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/02/2023] [Accepted: 07/05/2023] [Indexed: 07/23/2023] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND Generally, low-density lipoprotein (LDL) particle size can be inferred from the LDL cholesterol concentration to total apolipoprotein B concentration ratio (LDL-C/ApoB ratio, hereinafter called LAR), which is a good predictor of cardiovascular disease. However, the predictive ability of LAR for mortality risk in the general population is still unclear. This study aimed to explore the association between LAR and cardiovascular as well as all-cause mortality among American adults. METHODS The present study was a secondary analysis of existing data from the National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (NHANES). The final analysis included 12,440 participants from 2005 to 2014. Survival differences between groups were visualized using Kaplan‒Meier curves and the log-rank test. The association of LAR with cardiovascular and all-cause mortality was evaluated using multivariate Cox regression and restricted cubic spline analysis. Age, sex, coronary artery disease, diabetes, lipid-lowering medication use and hypertriglyceridemia were analyzed in subgroup analyses. RESULTS The median age in the study cohort was 46.0 years [interquartile range (IQR): 31.0-62.0], and 6,034 (48.5%) participants were male. During the follow-up period, there were 872 (7.0%) all-cause deaths and 150 (1.2%) cardiovascular deaths. Compared with individuals without cardiovascular events, those who experienced cardiovascular deaths had a lower LAR (1.13 vs. 1.25) (P < 0.001). The adjusted Cox regression model indicated that lower LAR was an independent risk factor for both cardiovascular [hazard ratio (HR) = 0.304, 95% confidence interval (CI): 0.114-0.812] and all-cause mortality (HR = 0.408, 95% CI: 0.270-0.617). Moreover, a significant age interaction was observed (P for interaction < 0.05), and there was a strong association between LAR and mortality among participants over 65 years of age. Further analysis showed an inverse association between LAR and both cardiovascular and all-cause mortality. CONCLUSIONS LAR can independently predict cardiovascular and all-cause mortality in the general population.

Abstract
PURPOSE The ratio of low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C)/apolipoprotein B (apo B) is associated with all-cause mortality and cardiovascular events in chronic kidney disease patients. The aim of this study was to investigate the association between the LDL-C/apo B ratio (LAR) and all-cause mortality and cardiovascular events in peritoneal dialysis (PD) patients. METHODS A total of 1199 incident PD patients were enrolled from November 1, 2005 to August 31, 2019. The LAR was used to divide the patients into two groups by X-Tile software and restricted cubic splines using 1.04 as the cutoff. The incidence of all-cause mortality and cardiovascular events at follow-up was compared according to LAR. RESULTS Of the 1199 patients, 58.0% were men, the mean age was 49.3 ± 14.5 years, 225 patients had a history of diabetes, and 117 patients had prior cardiovascular disease. During the follow-up period, 326 patients died, and 178 patients experienced cardiovascular events. After full adjustment, a low LAR was significantly associated with HRs for all-cause mortality of 1.37 (95% CI 1.02-1.84, P = 0.034) and for cardiovascular events of 1.61 (95% CI 1.10-2.36, P = 0.014). CONCLUSION This study suggests that a low LAR is an independent risk factor for all-cause mortality and cardiovascular events in PD patients, indicating that the LAR may provide significant information when assessing all-cause mortality and cardiovascular risks.

Abstract
BackgroundPeripheral artery disease (PAD) is a common atherosclerotic vascular disease. The use of drug-coated balloon (DCB) for the treatment of femoropopliteal artery disease has gradually increased. A certain percentage of patients developed target lesion restenosis after DCB treatment of the femoral popliteal artery. The neutrophil-to-lymphocyte ratio (NLR) is closely related to the level of inflammatory activity and has predictive value for atherosclerotic vascular disease. This study aimed to analyze the relationship between NLR and 1-year restenosis after DCB for femoropopliteal artery disease.MethodsPatients with femoropopliteal artery disease who were treated with DCBs at our hospital from May 2016 to December 2020 were retrospectively included. Baseline data during the patient’s first hospital stay and data during follow-up were collected. Demographic data, laboratory test results, lesion examination results, and major adverse events during the follow-up period were collected. Logistic regression was used to analyze the factors associated with restenosis after DCB.ResultsA total of 117 patients were included. During 1-year follow-up, 19 cases (16.2%) of restenosis were detected. Five of these patients (4.3% of total included patients) were readmitted for symptomatic ischemia. No deaths or amputations occurred. Baseline NLR in patients with restenosis was higher than that in patients without restenosis (2.4 (2.1, 3.4) vs. 1.8 (1.3, 2.3), P < 0.001). Logistic univariate and multivariate analysis showed that baseline hs-CRP level (OR = 1.10, 95%CI: 1.05–1.34), lesion length (OR = 1.04, 95%CI: 1.02–1.27), use of rivaroxaban (OR = 1.08, 95%CI: 1.05–1.39), NLR (OR = 1.47, 95%CI: 1.13–2.48), LDL-C level (OR = 1.25, 95%CI: 1.05–1.52), and diabetes (OR = 1.25, 95%CI: 1.05–1.52) = 1.18, 95%CI: 1.06–1.66) were predictors of restenosis.ConclusionBaseline NLR before DCB can predict the risk of restenosis after surgery.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Dyslipidemia is a well-recognized risk factor for diabetic kidney disease (DKD) in patients with type 2 diabetes (T2D). Growing evidences have shown that compared with the traditional lipid parameters, some lipid ratios may provide additional information of lipid metabolism. Thus, the present study aimed to investigate which lipid index was most related to DKD. METHODS This study was a cross-sectional study that enrolled patients with T2D from January 2021 to October 2021. Each participant was screened for DKD, and the diagnostic criterion for DKD is estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) < 60 ml/min/1.73 m2 or urinary albumin-to-creatinine ratio (UACR) ≥ 30 mg/g for 3 months. Fasting blood was collected to determine lipid profiles by an automatic biochemical analyzer, and lipid ratios were calculated based on corresponding lipid parameters. Spearman's correlation analyses were conducted to assess the correlations between lipid indices and kidney injury indices, and binary logistic regression analyses were conducted to explore the relationship between lipid indices and the risk of DKD. RESULTS A total of 936 patients with T2D were enrolled in the study, 144 (15.38%) of whom had DKD. The LDL-C/Apo B ratios were positively correlated with eGFR (r = 0.146, p < 0.05) and inversely correlated to cystatin C and UACR (r = -0.237 and -0.120, both p < 0.001). Multiple logistic regression demonstrated that even after adjusting for other clinical covariates, the LDL-C/Apo B ratios were negatively related to DKD, and the odds ratio (95% confidence interval) was 0.481 (0.275-0.843). Furthermore, subgroup analyses revealed that compared with patients with normal lipid profiles and a high LDL-C/Apo B ratio, the odds ratio of DKD in patients with normal lipid metabolism and a low LDL-C/Apo B ratio was 2.205 (1.136-4.280) after adjusting for other clinical covariates. CONCLUSION In patients with T2D, the LDL-c/Apo B ratio was most closely associated with DKD among various lipid indices, and a lower LDL-C/Apo B ratio was associated with increased risks of DKD among patients with T2D.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Dyslipidemia may contribute to low bone turnover in patients with type 2 diabetes (T2D) through mediating oxidative stress and atherosclerosis. The low-density lipoprotein cholesterol/apoprotein B (LDL-C/Apo B) ratio is a surrogate marker of small and density low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (sd-LDL-C), a most harmful group of LDL-Cs. The present study aimed to investigate the association between the LDL-C/Apo B ratio and bone turnover in patients with T2D. METHODS This study was a cross-sectional study enrolled patients with T2D from January 2021 to December 2021. Each participant was assessed for lipid profiles, bone turnover markers (BTMs), lumbar spine (L1-L4) and hip dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry (DXA) scans. Osteoporosis was diagnosed as a T-score lower than or equal to -2.5 at the spine or hip. RESULTS A total of 335 patients with T2D were enrolled in the study, and the LDL-C/Apo B ratio ranged from 0.78 to 4.00. Along with the LDL-C/Apo B ratio tertile ascending, osteocalcin (OC), C-terminal telopeptide (CTx) and N-terminal propeptide of type-I procollagen (PINP) levels gradually increased (all p < 0.05). There were no differences in lumbar spine and hip T-score, proportion of osteoporosis (all p > 0.05) among the three subgroups. The LDL-C/Apo B ratio was positively correlated with lnOC (r = 0.244, p < 0.001), lnCTx (r = 0.226, p < 0.01) and lnPINP (r = 0.211, p < 0.001). These significant positive correlations persisted even when divided into male and female subgroups. Furthermore, three multiple linear regression analyses were constructed to investigate the independent association of the LDL-C/Apo B ratio with the BTMs levels. After adjusting for other clinical parameters, the LDL-C/Apo B ratio was still significantly associated with OC level (β = 0.199, t = 3.348, p < 0.01), CTx level (β = 0.238, t = 4.084, p < 0.001) and PINP level (β = 0.162, t = 2.741, p < 0.01). CONCLUSION The LDL-C/Apo B ratio was significantly and positively associated with BTMs in patients with T2D. In clinical practice, more attention should be paid to the patients with T2D whose LDL-C/Apo B ratio is relatively low for the purpose of maintaining bone health.

Association between apolipoprotein B/A1 ratio and coronary plaque vulnerability in patients with atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease: an intravascular optical coherence tomography study.

Abstract
Background Apolipoprotein (Apo) A1 and Apo B are strongly associated with the risk of atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease (ASCVD). However, the relationship between the Apo B/A1 ratio and the morphology of coronary vulnerable plaques has not been fully elucidated in patients with ASCVD. Methods A total of 320 patients with ASCVD undergoing percutaneous coronary intervention were enrolled and assigned into acute coronary syndrome (ACS) or chronic coronary syndrome (CCS) group. The morphology of culprit plaque was analyzed by intravascular optical coherence tomography. Association between the Apo B/A1 ratio and coronary vulnerable plaques were evaluated using logistic regression models and receiver operator characteristic (ROC) curve analyses. Results The Apo B/A1 ratio was higher in ACS patients than CCS patients (0.77 ± 0.28 vs. 0.64 ± 0.22, P < 0.001) and it was also higher in patients with plaque rupture, erosion or thrombus than those without culprit plaques. The high Apo B/A1 ratio was associated with high percent of vulnerable plaques compared with low ratio group. The Apo B/A1 ratio was negatively related to fibrous cap thickness in lipid-rich plaque (r = − 0.228, P = 0.043). Univariate and multivariate logistic regression analyses revealed that the Apo B/A1 ratio was an independent factor of plaque rupture, erosion, and thrombus. The area under the ROC curve of the Apo B/A1 ratio for plaque rupture, erosion, and thrombus were 0.632, 0.624, and 0.670 respectively (P < 0.001 for all), which were higher than that of low-density lipoprotein cholesterol. Conclusions The Apo B/A1 ratio is an independent predictor for plaque rupture, erosion, and thrombus in patients with ASCVD.
