Subjects: hip circumference, mortality, obesity, waist circumference, Diseases of the circulatory (Cardiovascular) system, RC666-701
Abstract: Background Waist circumference and hip circumference are both strongly associated with risk of death; however, their joint association has rarely been investigated. Methods and Results The MONICA Risk, Genetics, Archiving, and Monograph (MORGAM) Project was conducted in 30 cohorts from 11 countries; 90 487 men and women, aged 30 to 74 years, predominantly white, with no history of cardiovascular disease, were recruited in 1986 to 2010 and followed up for up to 24 years. Hazard ratios were estimated using sex‐specific Cox models, stratified by cohort, with age as the time scale. Models included baseline categorical obesity measures, age, total and high‐density lipoprotein cholesterol, systolic blood pressure, antihypertensive drugs, smoking, and diabetes mellitus. A total of 9105 all‐cause deaths were recorded during a median follow‐up of 10 years. Hazard ratios for all‐cause death presented J‐ or U‐shaped associations with most obesity measures. With waist and hip circumference included in the same model, for all hip sizes, having a smaller waist was strongly associated with lower risk of death, except for men with the smallest hips. In addition, among those with smaller waists, hip size was strongly negatively associated with risk of death, with ≈20% more people identified as being at increased risk compared with waist circumference alone. Conclusions A more complex relationship between hip circumference, waist circumference, and risk of death is revealed when both measures are considered simultaneously. This is particularly true for individuals with smaller waists, where having larger hips was protective. Considering both waist and hip circumference in the clinical setting could help to best identify those at increased risk of death.

2. Thrombotic Events after COVID-19 Vaccination in the Over-50s: Results from a Population-Based Study in Italy

Author: Ileana Baldi, Danila Azzolina, Andrea Francavilla, Patrizia Bartolotta, Giulia Lorenzoni, Diego Vanuzzo, and Dario Gregori
Subjects: claims data, COVID-19, Vaxzevria, safety, adverse events, Italy, Medicine
Abstract: Several European countries suspended or changed recommendations for the use of Vaxzevria (AstraZeneca) for suspected adverse effects due to atypical blood-clotting. This research aims to identify a reference point towards the number of thrombotic events expected in the Italian population over 50 years of age who received Vaxzevria from 22 January to 12 April 2021. The venous thromboembolism (VT) and immune thrombocytopenia (ITP) event rates were estimated from a population-based cohort. The overall VT rate was 1.15 (95% CI 0.93–1.42) per 1000 person-years, and the ITP rate was 2.7 (95% CI 0.7–11) per 100,000 person-years. These figures translate into 83 and two expected events of VT and ITP, respectively, in the 15 days following the first administration of Vaxzevria. The number of thrombotic events reported from the Italian Medicines Agency does not appear to have increased beyond that expected in individuals over 50 years of age.

Author: Cecilia Guastadisegni, Chiara Donfrancesco, Luigi Palmieri, Sara Grioni, Vittorio Krogh, Diego Vanuzzo, Pasquale Strazzullo, Serena Vannucchi, Graziano Onder, and Simona Giampaoli
Subjects: hypertension, diabetes, dyslipidemia, dietary recommendations, Nutrition. Foods and food supply, TX341-641
Abstract: The aim of this study is to evaluate whether nutrients intake in an Italian adult population receiving pharmacological treatment for hypertension, dyslipidemia, and diabetes are within the recommended values proposed by dietary guidelines. Cross-sectional data from the Cardiovascular Epidemiology Observatory/Health Examination Survey in 8462 individuals 35–79 years were used. Food consumption was assessed with a self-administered semi-quantitative food frequency questionnaire. Dietary sodium and potassium intakes were measured in 24-hour urine collection. Recommendations from WHO were used for salt and potassium intakes, those from the Diabetes and Nutrition Study Group for diabetes, and those from the European Society of Cardiology for hypertension and dyslipidemia. Salt intake in urine collection of participants receiving treatment for hypertension was 11.1 ± 4.0 g/day for men and 8.6 ± 3.3 g/day for women, higher than recommended. In participants treated for dyslipidemia, mean saturated fat intake was 11.4% and 11.6% total Kcal in men and women respectively, higher than recommended, while cholesterol intake was higher only in men (365.9 ± 149.6 mg/day). In both men and women receiving treatment for diabetes, mean intake of saturated fats (12.3% and 12.2% of total Kcal), simple carbohydrates (17.5% and 19.8% of total Kcal) and cholesterol (411.0 ± 150.4 and 322.7 ± 111.1 mg/day) were above the recommendations, while fiber intake was below (19.5 ± 6.3 and 17.5 ± 6.2 mg/day). Overall, 70% to 80% of participants treated for these conditions received advice from family doctors on dietary management; however, nutrition is far from being optimal.

Abstract: Limited data are available on the prevalence and correlates of statin use for secondary cardiovascular (CV) prevention in the older adult population. We used data of older adults (65-79 years) with established atherosclerotic CV disease from the cross-sectional Italian Health Examination Survey 2008-2012 to address this issue. Lifestyles, CV risk factors, chronic diseases, and therapies were assessed using standardized procedures. A comprehensive geriatric assessment was performed to evaluate cognitive function, disability in basic activities of daily living/instrumental activities of daily living, mobility, and polypharmacy. Multiple regression analyses were performed to identify independent correlates of statin use. A total of 392 participants (mean age 72.1 ± 4.4 years, 61.5% men) were considered for this analysis. Coronary heart disease was identified in 67.1% of participants, cerebrovascular disease in 23.5%, and peripheral artery disease (PAD) in 18.1%. One hundred ninety (48.5%) were statin users. By multiple regression analysis, functional disability (odds ratio [OR] = 0.81; 95% confidence interval [CI] = 0.71-0.92

Abstract: From 1985 to 2016, the prevalence of underweight decreased, and that of obesity and severe obesity increased, in most regions, with significant variation in the magnitude of these changes across regions. We investigated how much change in mean body mass index (BMI) explains changes in the prevalence of underweight, obesity, and severe obesity in different regions using data from 2896 population-based studies with 187 million participants. Changes in the prevalence of underweight and total obesity, and to a lesser extent severe obesity, are largely driven by shifts in the distribution of BMI, with smaller contributions from changes in the shape of the distribution. In East and Southeast Asia and sub-Saharan Africa, the underweight tail of the BMI distribution was left behind as the distribution shifted. There is a need for policies that address all forms of malnutrition by making healthy foods accessible and affordable, while restricting unhealthy foods through fiscal and regulatory restrictions., Wellcome Trust, Medical Research Council, peer-reviewed

Abstract: Several European countries suspended or changed recommendations for the use of Vaxzevria (AstraZeneca) for suspected adverse effects due to atypical blood-clotting. This research aims to identify a reference point towards the number of thrombotic events expected in the Italian population over 50 years of age who received Vaxzevria from 22 January to 12 April 2021. The venous thromboembolism (VT) and immune thrombocytopenia (ITP) event rates were estimated from a population-based cohort. The overall VT rate was 1.15 (95% CI 0.93–1.42) per 1000 person-years, and the ITP rate was 2.7 (95% CI 0.7–11) per 100,000 person-years. These figures translate into 83 and two expected events of VT and ITP, respectively, in the 15 days following the first administration of Vaxzevria. The number of thrombotic events reported from the Italian Medicines Agency does not appear to have increased beyond that expected in individuals over 50 years of age.

Abstract: Background This study aims to assess time trends in first hospitalization for heart failure (HF) in a community-based population over the period from 1977 to 2014. Methods Population-based cohort study using resources from the "Martignacco project" started in 1977 and promoted by the WHO. Three thousand and sixty-six subjects were involved in the project with follow-up through December 2014. Estimates were made for age-specific incidence rates for the first hospitalization for HF by birth cohort, calendar period, and gender. To disentangle the effects of age, calendar period, and birth cohort on the overall temporal trend in HF, we performed an age-period-cohort (APC) analysis. Results An incident hospitalization for HF was reported for 427 subjects. In the APC model, a cohort effect with a turning point in 1930 was observed. After 1930, a sharp decrease in the rate ratios (RRs) occurred in among both genders. The estimated RR in the 1940 birth cohort decreased to 0.43, (95% CI 0.19–0.92), in men and to 0.45, (95% CI 0.16–1.26), in women. A residual effect of calendar period on RR was observed with a plateau in 1995 for women and in 2000 for men, followed by a decline. Conclusions The current findings showed that HF hospitalization incidence has declined over the period considered in subjects over 65 years living in a geographically defined community in Northeast Italy. Moreover, the age of birth, calendar period of diagnosis, and birth cohort play an important role in the incidence of the first hospitalization for HF.

Abstract: The aim of this study is to evaluate whether nutrients intake in an Italian adult population receiving pharmacological treatment for hypertension, dyslipidemia, and diabetes are within the recommended values proposed by dietary guidelines. Cross-sectional data from the Cardiovascular Epidemiology Observatory/Health Examination Survey in 8462 individuals 35&ndash, 79 years were used. Food consumption was assessed with a self-administered semi-quantitative food frequency questionnaire. Dietary sodium and potassium intakes were measured in 24-hour urine collection. Recommendations from WHO were used for salt and potassium intakes, those from the Diabetes and Nutrition Study Group for diabetes, and those from the European Society of Cardiology for hypertension and dyslipidemia. Salt intake in urine collection of participants receiving treatment for hypertension was 11.1 &plusmn, 4.0 g/day for men and 8.6 &plusmn, 3.3 g/day for women, higher than recommended. In participants treated for dyslipidemia, mean saturated fat intake was 11.4% and 11.6% total Kcal in men and women respectively, higher than recommended, while cholesterol intake was higher only in men (365.9 &plusmn, 149.6 mg/day). In both men and women receiving treatment for diabetes, mean intake of saturated fats (12.3% and 12.2% of total Kcal), simple carbohydrates (17.5% and 19.8% of total Kcal) and cholesterol (411.0 &plusmn, 150.4 and 322.7 &plusmn, 111.1 mg/day) were above the recommendations, while fiber intake was below (19.5 &plusmn, 6.3 and 17.5 &plusmn, 6.2 mg/day). Overall, 70% to 80% of participants treated for these conditions received advice from family doctors on dietary management, however, nutrition is far from being optimal.

Abstract: Background: Waist circumference (WC) and hip circumference (HC) are both strongly associated with risk of death, however their joint association has rarely been investigated. This study aimed to assess the combined influence of WC and HC, as well as a range of other obesity measures, with the risk of all-cause and cardiovascular disease (CVD) death. Methods: This study uses participant data from 30 cohorts of the MORGAM Project conducted in 11 countries; 90,487 males and females aged 30-74 years, predominantly Caucasian, with no history of CVD, recruited in 1986-2010, and followed-up for up to 24 years. Hazard ratios were estimated using sex specific Cox models stratified by cohort with age as the time scale. Models included baseline categorical obesity measures, age, total and HDL cholesterol, systolic blood pressure, antihypertensive drugs, smoking and diabetes. Findings: 9105 all-cause deaths were recorded during a median follow up of 10 years. Hazard ratios for all-cause death presented J- or U-shaped associations with most obesity measures. When WC and HC were included in the same model, in both men and women, for all hip sizes, having a smaller waist was found to be strongly associated with lower risk of death, except for males with the smallest hip size. In addition, among those with smaller waists, hip size was strongly negatively associated with risk of death, with around 20% more people identified as being at increased risk compared to WC alone. Interpretation: A more complex relationship between HC, WC and risk of death is revealed when both measures are considered simultaneously. This is particularly true for individuals with smaller waists, where having larger hips was protective. Considering both WC and HC in the clinical setting could help to best identify those at increased risk of death. Funding Statement: The MORGAM Project received funding from Medical Research Council London grant G0601463 (80983) and European Union FP7 project BiomarCaRE (HEALTH-F2-2011-278913). The activities of the MORGAM Data Centre have been sustained also by recent funding from European Union FP 7 project CHANCES (HEALTH-F3-2010-242244). AJC, HR and LO were supported by Deakin University. AJC is the recipient of an Australian Research Council Discovery Early Career Researcher Awards (project number DE160100141). SS was supported by the Swedish Heart-Lung Foundation, the County Council of Vasterbotten (ALF, VLL-548791), and Umea University. Declaration of Interests: No conflicts of interest exist in relation to this work. Ethics Approval Statement: Each MORGAM participating centre was responsible for ethical approval and patient consent, according to local rules at the time of study enrollment.

Abstract: Background Obesity is a risk factor for the majority of non-communicable diseases-NCDs. In the Italian country profile, the NCD Risk Factor Collaboration estimated the 2010 obesity prevalence at 19.0% (95% confidence interval - C.I. 15.7-22.7) in women aged 18 years and over and 18.5% (95% C.I. 15.1-22.0) in men, with a very low probability (2-9%) of halting the increase of obesity by 2025 (WHO global obesity target). This preliminary analysis aims to assess 20 years trend of BMI and obesity in the Italian general adult population using the data collected within the CUORE Project. Methods Mean of BMI and prevalence of obesity (BMI > =30 kg/m2) in random samples of resident population in 6 Italian Regions, aged 35-74 years, stratified by age and sex, were assessed in an on-going survey started in 2018 (men 612; women 649), and compared to those assessed in the same Regions in 1998-2002 (men 1933, women 1926) and in 2008-2012 (men 1306; women 1318). Weight and height were measured using standardized methodologies. Surveys were partly funded by the Italian Ministry of Health-CCM and approved by the National Institute of Health ethical committee. Results In men, mean values of BMI resulted 26.6 kg/m2 (95% C.I. 26.4-26.8) in 1998 survey, 27.5 (27.2-27.7) in 2008 and 26.5 (26.1-26.8) in 2018; prevalence of obesity was 16.8% (95% C.I. 15.1-18.4) in 1998, 23.5% (21.2-25.8) in 2008 and 17.3% (14.4-20.4) in 2018. In women mean values of BMI were 26.1 kg/m2 (95% C.I.: 25.9-26.4) in 1998, 26.4 (26.1-26.7) in 2008 and 25.5 (25.1-25.9) in 2018; prevalence of obesity was 20.7% (95% C.I.: 18.9-22.5), 21.9% (19.7-24.2) and 19.0% (15.9-22.0) respectively. Conclusions Preliminary data of first 6 Regions (out of 10 to be examined in the on-going survey) suggest that mean BMI and prevalence of obesity in Italian adult population are still very high; if confirmed, in the last ten years a reduction seems to be occurred increasing the probability of meeting the WHO obesity target by 2025. Key messages Mean BMI and prevalence of obesity in Italian adult population are still high. If confirmed, in the last ten years a reduction of mean BMI and prevalence of obesity in Italian adult population seems to be occurred.

Abstract: High blood pressure (BP) is a major risk factor for cardiovascular disease. The urgency of the problem was underlined by the World Health Organization (WHO) Global Action Plan for the prevention and control of noncommunicable diseases, which recommends a 25% relative reduction in the prevalence of raised BP by 2020. A surveillance system represents a useful tool to monitor BP in the general population. Since 1980s, the National Institute of Health has conducted several surveys of the adult general population, measuring cardiovascular risk factors by standardized procedures and methods. To describe mean BP levels and high BP prevalence from 1978 to 2012 by sex and quinquennia of age. Data were derived from the following three studies: (i) Risk Factors and Life Expectancy (RIFLE), conducted between 1978 and 2002 in 13 Italian regions (>70,000 persons); (ii) Osservatorio Epidemiologico Cardiovascolare (OEC), conducted between 1998–2002 in the general population from all Italian regions (>9000 persons); and (iii) Osservatorio Epidemiologico Cardiovascolare/Health Examination Survey (OEC/HES), conducted between 2008–2012 in the general population from all Italian regions (>9000 persons). A significant decrease in mean systolic and diastolic BP levels and prevalence of high BP from 1978 to 2012 was observed both in men and women. BP and high BP increased by age classes in all considered periods. BP awareness and control also improved. Our data suggest that BP control could be achieved by 2020, as recommended by WHO.

Abstract: BACKGROUND: To simplify the assessment of the recording and control of coronary heart disease risk factors in different countries and regions. DESIGN: The SUrvey of Risk Factors (SURF) is an international clinical audit. METHODS: Data on consecutive patients with established coronary heart disease from countries in Europe, Asia and the Middle East were collected on a one-page collection sheet or electronically during routine clinic visits. Information on demographics, diagnostic category, risk factors, physical and laboratory measurements, and medications were included and key variables summarized in a Cardiovascular Health Index Score. RESULTS: Coronary heart disease patients (N = 10,186; 29% women) were enrolled from 79 centres in 11 countries. Recording of risk factors varied considerably: smoking was recorded in over 98% of subjects, while about 20% lacked data on laboratory measurements relevant to cardiovascular disease risk. Sixteen per cent of participants reported smoking, 29% were obese, and 46% had abdominal obesity. Sixty per cent of participants had blood pressure

Abstract: Surveillance of and monitoring trends for cardiovascular diseases and risk factors are relevant when we consider that these diseases and conditions are largely preventable. The aim of this paper is to assess time trends of cardiovascular diseases, lifestyles, risk factors and high risk conditions in different socioeconomic levels.Paired but independent population samples of men and women aged 35-74 years located in all 20 Italian regions were examined in 1998-2002 (n = 9612) and in 2008-2012 (n = 8141). Time trends of lifestyles, cardiovascular risk factors, prevalence of high-risk conditions and cardiovascular diseases are shown for two different socioeconomic levels, as assessed by educational level.Over 10 years, in both genders and socioeconomic classes, the prevalence of smoking decreased (from 32% to 23% in men) as well as mean levels of blood pressure (systolic from 136 mmHg to 133 mmHg in men and from 132 mmHg to 127 mmHg in women), while the prevalence of dyslipidemia and obesity increased reaching 35% and 25% of the population respectively; the prevalence of myocardial infarction remained stable (1.6% in men; about 0.5% in women), that of stroke decreased in men (from 1.2% to 0.7%); the prevalence of diabetes did not change (12% in men; 8% in women). In the low educational class, cardiovascular risk factors and diseases remained unfavourable compared with the high educational class.The burden of cardiovascular diseases and their risk factors remain high and require continuous appropriate action at the community and individual levels, as suggested by the European Guidelines for Cardiovascular Prevention.

Abstract: Objective: As excess sodium and inadequate potassium intake are causally related to hypertension and cardiovascular disease, the MINISAL-GIRCSI Program aimed to provide reliable estimates of dietary sodium and potassium intake in representative samples of the Italian population. Design and methods: Random samples of adult population were collected from 12 Italian regions, including 1168 men and 1112 women aged 35-79 yrs. Electrolyte intake was estimated from 24 hour urine collections and creatinine was measured to estimate the accuracy of the collection. Anthropometric indices were measured with standardised procedures. Results: The average sodium excretion was 189 mmol (or 10.9 g of salt/day) among men and 147 mmol (or 8.5 g) among women (range 27-472 and 36-471 mmol, respectively). Ninety-seven % of men and 87% of women had a consumption higher than the WHO recommended target of 5g/day. The 24 h average potassium excretion was 63 and 55 mmol, respectively (range 17-171 and 20-126 mmol), 96% of men and 99% of women having an intake lower than 100 mmol/day (European and American guideline recommendation). The mean sodium/potassium ratio was 3.1 and 2.8 respectively, i.e. over threefold greater than the desirable level of 0.85. The highest sodium intake was observed in Southern regions. Sodium and potassium excretion were both progressively higher the higher the BMI (p < 0.0001). Conclusions: These MINISAL preliminary results indicate that in all the Italian regions thus far surveyed dietary sodium intake was largely higher and potassium intake lower than the recommended intakes. They also highlight the critical association between overweight and excess salt intake.

Abstract: Background: The extent to which adult height, a biomarker of the interplay of genetic endowment and early-life experiences, is related to risk of chronic diseases in adulthood is uncertain. Methods: We calculated hazard ratios (HRs) for height, assessed in increments of 6.5 cm, using individual-participant data on 174 374 deaths or major non-fatal vascular outcomes recorded among 1 085 949 people in 121 prospective studies. Results: For people born between 1900 and 1960, mean adult height increased 0.5-1 cm with each successive decade of birth. After adjustment for age, sex, smoking and year of birth, HRs per 6.5 cm greater height were 0.97 (95% confidence interval: 0.96-0.99) for death from any cause, 0.94 (0.93-0.96) for death from vascular causes, 1.04 (1.03-1.06) for death from cancer and 0.92 (0.90-0.94) for death from other causes. Height was negatively associated with death from coronary disease, stroke subtypes, heart failure, stomach and oral cancers, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, mental disorders, liver disease and external causes. In contrast, height was positively associated with death from ruptured aortic aneurysm, pulmonary embolism, melanoma and cancers of the pancreas, endocrine and nervous systems, ovary, breast, prostate, colorectum, blood and lung. HRs per 6.5 cm greater height ranged from 1.26 (1.12-1.42) for risk of melanoma death to 0.84 (0.80-0.89) for risk of death from chronic obstructive pulmonary disease. HRs were not appreciably altered after further adjustment for adiposity, blood pressure, lipids, inflammation biomarkers, diabetes mellitus, alcohol consumption or socio-economic indicators. Conclusion: Adult height has directionally opposing relationships with risk of death from several different major causes of chronic diseases.

Abstract: Objectives This study sought to assess the prevalence of normal levels of high sensitivity C-reactive protein (hsCRP) at the very onset of ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI). Background Levels of hsCRP ≥2 mg/l identify individuals who benefit from lipid lowering and possibly anti-inflammatory agents, but how many patients develop infarction in spite of hsCRP levels Methods We studied 887 patients with unequivocally documented STEMI as the first manifestation of coronary disease and 887 matched control subjects from urban areas of Italy, Scotland, and China. Blood samples were obtained before reperfusion strategies Results hsCRP values were similar in samples obtained Conclusions The measurement of hsCRP, with a 2 mg/l cutoff, would not have predicted 41% of unequivocally documented STEMIs in 3 ethnic groups without evidence of previous coronary disease, thus indicating both its limitations as an individual prognostic marker and as an indicator of a generalized inflammatory pathogenetic component of STEMI. New specific prognostic and therapeutic approaches should be found for such a large fraction of patients at risk.

Abstract: In a previous paper, as the first of a series of three on the importance of characteristics and modalities of physical activity (PA) and exercise in the management of cardiovascular health within the general population, we concluded that, in the population at large, PA and aerobic exercise capacity clearly are inversely associated with increased cardiovascular disease risk and all-cause and cardiovascular mortality and that a dose–response curve on cardiovascular outcome has been demonstrated in most studies. More and more evidence is accumulated that engaging in regular PA and exercise interventions are essential components for reducing the severity of cardiovascular risk factors, such as obesity and abdominal fat, high BP, metabolic risk factors, and systemic inflammation. However, it is less clear whether and which type of PA and exercise intervention (aerobic exercise, dynamic resistive exercise, or both) or characteristic of exercise (frequency, intensity, time or duration, and volume) would yield more benefit for each separate risk factor. The present paper, therefore, will review and make recommendations for PA and exercise training in the management of cardiovascular health in individuals with cardiovascular risk factors. The guidance offered in this series of papers is aimed at medical doctors, health practitioners, kinesiologists, physiotherapists and exercise physiologists, politicians, public health policy makers, and individual members of the public. Based on previous and the current literature overviews, recommendations from the European Association on Cardiovascular Prevention and Rehabilitation are formulated regarding type, volume, and intensity of PA and regarding appropriate risk evaluation during exercise in individuals with cardiovascular risk factors. ispartof: European Journal of Preventive Cardiology vol:19 issue:5 pages:1005-1033 ispartof: location:England status: published

Abstract: Background and Purpose— The clinical usefulness of noninvasive measurement of carotid intima media thickness and plaque visualization in the general population is still uncertain. Methods— We evaluated the age-specific incidence rates of cerebrovascular events in a cohort of 1348 subjects randomly taken from the census list of San Daniele Township and followed for a mean period of 12.7 years. The association among common carotid intima media thickness, measured at baseline, arterial risk factors, and incidence of ischemic cerebrovascular events was modeled using Poisson regression. The predictive ability of common carotid intima media thickness over arterial risk factors (summarized in the Framingham Stroke Risk Score) was evaluated by receiver operating characteristic curve analysis. Results— During the follow-up, 115 subjects developed nonfatal ischemic stroke, transient ischemic attack, or vascular death, which were the predefined study end points. After adjustment for age and sex, hypertension, diabetes, common carotid intima media thickness above 1 mm, and carotid plaques were all independent risk factors for development of vascular events. Inclusion of carotid findings (presence of common carotid intima media thickness above 1 mm or carotid plaques) resulted in a predictive power higher than Framingham Stroke Risk Score alone only on for those subjects with a Framingham Stroke Risk Score over 20%. Conclusions— Although common carotid intima media thickness and presence of carotid plaques are known to be risk factors for the development of vascular events and to be independent from the conventional risk factors summarized in the Framingham Stroke Risk Score, their contribution to individual risk prediction is limited. Further studies will be required to address the role of carotid ultrasonography in the primary prevention of high-risk subjects.

Abstract: Background: The Italian register of cardiovascular diseases is a surveillance system of fatal and nonfatal cardiovascular events in the general population aged 35–74 years. It was launched in Italy at the end of the 1990s with the aim of estimating periodically the occurrence and case fatality rate of coronary and cerebrovascular events in the different geographical areas of the country. This paper presents data for cerebrovascular events. Methods: Currentevents were assessed through record linkage between two sources of information: death certificates and hospital discharge diagnosis records. Events were identified through the ICD codes and duration. To calculate the number of estimated events, current events were multiplied by the positive predictive value of each specific mortality or discharge code derived from the validation of a sample of suspected events. Attack rates were calculated by dividing estimatedevents by resident population, and case fatality rate at 28 days was determined from the ratio of estimated fatal to total events. Results: Attack rates were found to be higher in men than in women: mean age-standardized attack rate was 21.9/10,000 in men and 12.5/10,000 in women; age-standardized 28-day case fatality rate was higher in women (17.1%) than in men (14.5%). Significant geographical differences were found in attack rates of both men and women. Case fatality was significantly heterogeneous in both men and women. Conclusions: Differences still exist in the geographical distribution of attack and case fatality rates of cerebrovascular events, regardless of the north-south gradient. These data show the feasibility of implementing a population-based register using a validated routine database, necessary for monitoring cardiovascular diseases.

Abstract: BACKGROUND: Cardiovascular risk factor research has recently broadened its focus based on new data indicating the benefits of low risk, i.e. favorable levels of all major risk factors. The aims of this study were to assess further the relation of low risk to coronary heart disease risk, and implications for prevention. DESIGN: We conducted a prospective population-based Italian study, of 7438 men and 13 009 women aged 35-69 years, with a mean follow-up of 10.4 years and validated first coronary events. METHODS: Baseline coronary heart disease risk was classified into three categories: low risk; unfavorable but not high risk; and high risk. To analyze the relation of these risk profiles to coronary heart disease incidence, age-adjusted, sex-averaged coronary heart disease incidence was calculated for persons free of coronary heart disease and stroke, stratified as baseline low risk, unfavorable but not high risk or high risk. To assess the independent relationship of individual risk factors to coronary heart disease incidence, multivariate proportional hazards models were computed for combinations of risk factors. RESULTS: Only 2.7% of participants met low risk criteria; 81.4% were high risk. Age-adjusted coronary heart disease incidence for the whole cohort was 37.1 out of 10000 person-years (men 59.0; women 15.3). No coronary heart disease events occurred in low-risk men, only two in low-risk women. For women and men who were not high risk, the age-sex standardized coronary heart disease rate was 62% lower than for high-risk participants. Blood pressure, need for antihypertensive medication, smoking, hyperglycemia, diabetes, total and high-density lipoprotein cholesterol were independently related to coronary heart disease risk. CONCLUSIONS: Favorable levels of all modifiable readily measured risk factors - rare among Italian adults - assure minimal coronary heart disease risk. Population-wide prevention is needed, especially improved lifestyles, to increase the proportion of the population at low risk. © 2006 The European Society of Cardiology.

Abstract: Background: Increased carotid intima media thickness (CIMT) is frequently associated with established modifiable and non-modifiable cardiovascular risk factors, and is thought to be an independent predictor of ischemic cerebrovascular and cardiac events. The presence of carotid plaque is considered an established feature of atherosclerosis. There exist few longitudinal data on the predictive role of CIMT in the occurrence of carotid plaque. Methods: We restudied the survivors of a cohort of the San Daniele Project, a large randomized general population study, investigated in 1990 regarding the prevalence and determinants of carotid atherosclerosis. Using ultrasonography, we determined in 1,193 subjects (548 men and 645 women), the common carotid IMT and the presence of non-stenotic and stenotic plaque. Results: In 795 subjects without plaques or previous ischemic events at baseline, we found in multivariate analysis that CIMT ≧1 mm, age, hypertension and history of smoking are significant predictive elements of the occurrence of a new carotid plaque. The incremental probability of plaque occurrence is greater in midlife. CIMT and age are the most predictive risk factors with ORs of 3.66 (95% CI 1.4–9.4) and 3.02 (95% CI 2.4–3.7), respectively. The ORs for hypertension and smoking account for 1.5 (95% CI 1.1–3.4) and 1.7 (95% CI 1.1–2.8), respectively. Conclusions: Age, hypertension, history of smoking and B-mode detection of CIMT increases in subjects without carotid atherosclerosis and free of previous vascular events predict the occurrence of carotid atherosclerotic plaque.

Abstract: Background and Purpose— Coronary heart disease (CHD) and stroke are leading causes of death and disability. Because they share major common risk factors, it would be expected that trends in mortality and incidence of these 2 major cardiovascular diseases would be similar. Methods— Data from the World Health Organization (WHO) Multinational Monitoring of Trends and Determinants in Cardiovascular Disease (MONICA) Project were used to compare 10-year trends in mortality, event rates, and case fatality from both CHD and stroke. Fifteen populations in the WHO MONICA Project provided data on both CHD (60 763 events) and stroke (10 442 events) in men and women aged 35 to 64 years (23.4 million person-years of observation in total). Results— Trends for the 2 cardiovascular diseases varied within and between populations, and when data from all populations were combined, trends in CHD and stroke mortality differed in men ( P =0.001) but not in women, whereas trends in event rates differed significantly in both men and women ( P P =0.011, respectively). The differences in trends for CHD and stroke case fatality were not statistically significant in either men or women. In sensitivity analyses, differences in trends in event rates remained statistically significant in men ( P Conclusions— Trends for CHD and stroke mortality rates, event rates, and case fatality differ substantially between and within the study populations.

Abstract: Background and Purpose— Previous studies have indicated a reasonably strong relationship between secular trends in classic cardiovascular risk factors and stroke incidence within single populations. To what extent variations in stroke trends between populations can be attributed to differences in classic cardiovascular risk factor trends is unknown. Methods— In the World Health Organization Monitoring of Trends and Determinants in Cardiovascular Disease (WHO MONICA) Project, repeated population surveys of cardiovascular risk factors and continuous monitoring of stroke events have been conducted in 35- to 64-year-old people over a 7- to 13-year period in 15 populations in 9 countries. Stroke trends were compared with trends in individual risk factors and their combinations. A 3- to 4-year time lag between changes in risk factors and change in stroke rates was considered. Results— Population-level trends in systolic blood pressure showed a strong association with stroke event trends in women, but there was no association in men. In women, 38% of the variation in stroke event trends was explained by changes in systolic blood pressure when the 3- to 4-year time lag was taken into account. Combining trends in systolic blood pressure, daily cigarette smoking, serum cholesterol, and body mass index into a risk score explained only a small fraction of the variation in stroke event trends. Conclusions— In this study, it appears that variations in stroke trends between populations can be explained only in part by changes in classic cardiovascular risk factors. The associations between risk factor trends and stroke trends are stronger for women than for men.

Subjects: Physiology (medical), Cardiology and Cardiovascular Medicine
Abstract: Background: The number of elderly persons with cardiovascular disease (CVD) is rapidly increasing, mainly due to worldwide aging population. All CVD risk scores consider age as risk factor but most of them assume that the etiological role of other established risk factors is similar at all ages. This analyses aimed to assess the predictive role of cardiovascular risk factors in elderly persons. Methods: We considered 10,979 men and 16,533 women aged 35-74 years from cohorts in North, Centre and South of Italy with 10 years median follow-up time for fatal and non fatal coronary and cerebrovascular events (819 in men and 467 in women) validated according to MONICA criteria. In all cohorts risk factors were assessed by using standardized procedures. Two age groups were defined: adult 35-54 years of age (6,353 men and 10,358 women) and elderly 55-74 years (4,626 men and 6,175 men). Cox models were implemented including age, systolic blood pressure (SBP), total (TC) and HDL cholesterol (HDL-C), smoking, diabetes (DM - fasting blood glucose >=126 mg/dl or under glucose treatment) and hypertension treatment (HT). For continuous variables, hazard ratios (HR) were reported at 1 standard deviation higher level and for dichotomized variables, yes vs no. Results: For adult men SBP resulted having a stronger impact on CVD risk than for elderly even if not statistically significant: adult HR 1.32, 95% confidence interval 1.18-1.48, vs elderly HR 1.25, 1.15-1.36; similar results for TC (HR 1.47 vs 1.25), smoking (HR 1.91, vs 1.52), DM (HR 1.76 vs 1.56), HT (HR 2.30 vs 1.25). HDL-C resulted not significantly associated with CVD risk in elderly men. Among adult women a stronger impact was found than in elderly for SBP (HR 1.59 vs 1.26), HDL-C (0.65 vs 0.84), smoking (2.43 vs 1.99), and HT (2.34 vs 1.45); the opposite for TC (1.19 vs 1.27). DM resulted not significantly associated with CVD risk in adult women. Age resulted having a stronger impact in elderly persons both in men and women (HR 1.22, 1.07-1.39, vs 1.44, 1.29-1.61; 1.45, 1.17-1.80, vs 1.63, 1.42-1.86 respectively). Conclusions: SBP and HT resulted having a pronounced lower impact on CVD risk in elderly than in adult as well as HDL-C for men; age shows a stronger impact in elderly than in adult. Further analyses are recommended to study the reliability of risk scores based on age-specific risk models, evaluating the introduction of different risk factors and considering survival probability derived from data in elderly population.

Abstract: Background: Strategies aiming at reducing dietary sodium are being implemented in many countries based on evidence-based knowledge supporting their cost-effectiveness for reduction of cardiovascular and other chronic diseases. From 2009 to 2011 a Preventive Program of the Italian Ministry of Health has been implemented in Italy including the agreement with bread makers’ associations for the gradual reduction of the salt content in bread, public information campaigns, and the evaluation of population current dietary sodium intakes. This analyses aim to monitor dietary intake of sodium and potassium in representative samples of the Italian adult population before and after the Preventive Program. Methods: Data from random samples of persons aged 35-79 years and resident in Italian central regions were collected from October 2009 to September 2010 (299 men and 280 women) and from April to July 2012 (205 men and 210 women). Determinations of sodium and potassium were assessed in a centralized laboratory. Information on the consumption of high salt content food were collected through a questionnaire. Comparisons between mean levels and prevalences were performed using t-test and chi-squared test respectively. Results: In men, mean level of sodium chloride per day resulted 185 mmol (95% confidence interval: 177-193 mmol) in 2009-2010 samples and 161 mmol (152-169 mmol) in 2012 samples (p Conclusions: Presented data show that average daily sodium intake in central Italy is still largely higher than that recommended but a significant improvement of mean level of sodium intake and consumption of bread without salt resulted. This results fully justify and encourage the preventive initiatives for reduction of sodium intake and its monitoring in the general population.

Abstract: Population-based data on coronary events are generally lacking for large areas, such as at the nation-wide level. While mortality data are currently and exhaustively collected in all developed countries and in a few developing countries, incidence and prevalence are often available only for certain subgroups of the population under study.We propose to estimate population-based incidence and prevalence of coronary events through a mathematical method using mortality and survival data as input, and to forecast coronary event occurrence using an age, period and cohort approach. The method reconstructs incidence and prevalence of major coronary events in Italy from 1970 to 1997 and projects trends up to the year 2007 using survival data on coronary events from the Area Friuli-MONICA (MONItoring of CArdiovascular diseases) register.Major coronary event incidence has been decreasing since 1977 for men and since 1974, for women. Conversely, major coronary event prevalence increased up to the end of the 1980s for men and up to the early 1980s for women, and it has been declining thereafter. Major coronary event prevalence results from three main effects: increasing survival, population ageing, and incidence trend.Availability of national population data, collection of population-based survival data from the MONICA registers and appropriate statistical and mathematical methods help to estimate and project incidence and prevalence trends for major coronary events. This information is essential to plan and implement actions aimed at improving medical care services, and to evaluate the impact of public health interventions as well as spontaneously changing habits.

Abstract: We have examined the potential for cholesterol lowering in secondary prevention of coronary heart disease based on data from the European Action on Secondary Prevention through Intervention to Reduce Events (EUROASPIRE) study carried out in 1995-1996 in nine European centres (Czech Republic, Finland, France, Germany, Hungary, Italy, The Netherlands, Slovenia and Spain). Consecutive patients aged < or = 70 years in four diagnostic categories--coronary artery bypass grafting, percutaneous transluminal coronary angioplasty, acute myocardial infarction, and acute myocardial ischaemia without infarction--were identified from hospital records and invited for an interview and risk factor assessment at least 6 months after hospital admission. Plasma lipid measurements were carried out in a central laboratory. Combining patients from all centres and diagnostic categories (n = 2749) the medians (interquartile ranges) for plasma lipids were: total cholesterol 5.36 (4.76-6.03) mmol/l, high density lipoprotein (HDL) cholesterol 1.19 (1.01-1.42) mmol/l, triglycerides 1.55 (1.15-2.24) mmol/l, and low density lipoprotein (LDL) cholesterol 3.32 (2.76-3.91) mmol/l. Only 33% of the patients received lipid-lowering drugs. If the therapeutic goal given in the 1998 European recommendations, total cholesterol < 5.0 mmol/l, were applied, 67% of these patients would have needed an intensified cholesterol-lowering action, and with an even stricter goal, total cholesterol < 4.5 mmol/l, this proportion would have been as high as 84%.

Abstract: Summary Background The revolution in coronary care in the mid-1980s to mid-1990s corresponded with monitoring of coronary heart disease (CHD) in 31 populations of the WHO MONICA Project. We studied the impact of this revolution on coronary endpoints. Methods Case fatality, coronary-event rates, and CHD mortality were monitored in men and women aged 35–64 years in two separate 3–4-year periods. In each period, we recorded percentage use of eight treatments: coronary-artery reperfusion before, thrombolytics during, and β-blockers, antiplatelet drugs, and angiotensin-converting-enzyme (ACE) inhibitors before and during non-fatal myocardial infarction. Values were averaged to produce treatment scores. We correlated changes across populations, and regressed changes in coronary endpoints on changes in treatment scores. Findings Treatment changes correlated positively with each other but inversely with change in coronary endpoints. By regression, for the common average treatment change of 20, case fatality fell by 19% (95% Cl 12–26) in men and 16% (5–27) in women; coronary-event rates fell by 25% (16–35) and 23% (7–39); and CHD mortality rates fell by 42% (31–53) and 34% (17–50). The regression model explained an estimated 61% and 41% of variance for men and women in trends for case fatality, 52% and 30% for coronary-event rates, and 72% and 56% for CHD mortality. Interpretation Changes in coronary care and secondary prevention were strongly linked with declining coronary endpoints. Scores and benefits followed a geographical east-to-west gradient. The apparent effects of the treatment might be exaggerated by other changes in economically successful populations, so their specificity needs further assessment.

Abstract: Many epidemiological projects and clinical trials on determinants of atherosclerotic cardiovascular diseases (CVDs) have been conducted to identify risk factors and demonstrate the reversibility of risk through actions directed at their reduction, both in healthy subjects and in patients with established CVDs. At the international level, the Seven Countries Study identified risk factors common to different cultures, consistent for their importance, predictive power, and frequency among the general population.1 Smoking habit, and a rich diet with consequent high levels of total cholesterol and high blood pressure, were ascertained to be partly responsible for differences in the incidence of stroke and coronary heart disease (CHD) between countries.2,3 The WHO's European Collaborative Trial of the multifactorial prevention of CHD demonstrated the reversibility of risk among European populations, through healthier lifestyles and treatment of high risk subjects.4 To this extent the North Karelia Project represents the best example of community-based primary prevention.5 In all these studies, risk factors were carefully standardized and CVD incident events and deaths validated. The scenario may be different when evaluating whole countries. In fact in most industrialized countries CHD mortality has decreased since 1960, but in others it has increased. Time trends have been described for total cholesterol, smoking habit, blood pressure, and body mass index. However, the comparability of mortality and risk factors data was poor. The MONICA-WHO Project (Monitoring Trends and Determinants in Cardiovascular Disease) was the first multinational large-scale study specifically designed to understand the wide variations in CHD and stroke mortality among different countries, … *Corresponding author.

Abstract: Background: From 2008 to 2012 an Health Examination Survey (HES)-Osservatorio Epidemiologico Cardiovascolare (OEC) has been implemented in Italy with the aim of assessing cardiovascular (CV) risk factors, prevalence of risk conditions and CV diseases for the Italian adult population. Methods: Random samples of general population stratified by age and sex were examined in all Italian regions (participation rate 56%). Risk factor were collected using standardized procedures and methods; biochemical tests were assayed in a central laboratory; a questionnaire investigates behaviours and CVD history; a ECG read in Minnesota code was used to define previous myocardial infarction. Comparisons between men and women were assessed using t-test for means and chi-squared test for prevalence. Results: Data of 4371 men and 4339 women ages 35-79 years were analysed. Majority of risk factors mean levels resulted higher in men than in women: systolic blood pressure (SBP) was 134 mmHg and 129 mmHg (p=140 mmHg or DBP>=90 mmHg or in treatment (p=200 mg/dl or in treatment for (p2 ) (p=30 kg/m 2 ) resulted similar in men and women: 25% and 27% respectively (p=0.0818). Prevalence of myocardial infarction was 2.1% in men and 0.7% in women (p Conclusions: At present obesity and smoking are still a priority in public health. In combination with other information sources, the OEC can contribute greatly to plan community actions and health services at national and regional level.

Abstract: Background: Health Interview Survey (HIS) collects only self-reported height and weight to estimate obesity prevalence. Because of self-reporting, estimated obesity prevalence could be too low. From 2008 to 2012 an Health Examination Survey/Osservatorio Epidemiologico Cardiovascolare (HES/OEC) has been implemented in Italy with the aim of assessing cardiovascular (CV) risk factors, prevalence of risk conditions and CV diseases for the Italian adult population. Differences in measured and self-reported main anthropometric measures are described. Methods: Random samples of general population stratified by age and sex were examined in all Italian regions (participation rate 56%). Self-reported height and weight were requested to participants just after the welcome at the screening center. Height and weight were then measured using standardized procedures and methods. BMI was categorized in 3 groups: normal (BMI=30 kg/m2). Comparisons between measured and reported height, weight, and calculated BMI in men and women were assessed using t-test for means and chi-squared test for prevalence for paired samples. Results: Data from 2,583 men and 2,575 women aged 35-79 years were analysed. In men, measured height was lower than self-reported (-2.1 cm.), measured weight resulted higher than self-reported (+0.3 kg.); as a consequence BMI calculated on measured data resulted higher than that based on self-reported data (+0.8 kg/m2). Prevalence of obesity was higher for measured data than for self-reported (+7.1%). In men, difference between measured and self-reported height resulted higher in obese category than in the overweight or normal groups (-2.6 cm.), as well as for weight (+1.6 kg.). Similar results were registered in women: measured height was lower than self-reported (-3.6 cm.), measured weight resulted higher than self-reported (+0.8 kg.); as a consequence BMI calculated on measured data resulted higher than that based on self-reported data (+1.6 kg/m2). Prevalence of obesity was higher for measured data than for self-reported (+9.2%). Difference between measured and self-reported height resulted higher in obese category than in the overweight or normal groups (-5.0 cm.), as well as for weight (1.8 kg.). Both in men and women differences increased by age-group. Conclusions: Our results confirm how important is to produce standardised measures, also to adjust and correct self-reported height and weight, in order to have a reliable picture of obesity in the population. At present obesity is still a priority in public health and is one of the main indicator to plan community actions for cardiovascular disease prevention in the population.

Abstract: Over the last years - late 1970s to early 1990s - the incidence of prostate carcinoma has nearly doubled, even though many more patients die suffering from prostate cancer than because of it. This finding, together with the slow growth of this tumor and the absence of a controlled trial that would suggest a benefit from screening, makes early diagnosis of this disease quite questionable. On the other hand, it is well known that prostatic carcinoma is curable as long as it is intracapsular, and that there is an ever increasing encouragement to early detection in all diseases. The costs of screening and the difficulty in balancing the benefits of screening against its negative effects, such as psychological impact and overtreatment, must be taken into account as well. In our opinion, one of the advantages of early diagnosis should be that the patients’ quality of life improves, because the stage at diagnosis and, as a result, the number of patients suffering from bone metastasis decrease, and unknown benign pathologies can be cured. These observations are not at all negligible. Our study aims to demonstrate that by using PSA as an initial test, the screening costs are reasonable and the disease incidence is just as expected.
