1. Measuring Cardiorespiratory Fitness without Exercise Testing: The Development and Validation of a New Tool for Spanish Adults

Author: Helmut Schröder, Isaac Subirana, Roberto Elosua, Anna Camps-Vilaró, Helena Tizón-Marcos, Montserrat Fitó, Santiago F. Gómez, Irene R. Dégano, and Jaume Marrugat
Subjects: cardiorespiratory fitness, non-exercise cardiorespiratory fitness, validity, Medicine
Abstract: Background: Cardiorespiratory fitness (CRF) is an important component of overall physical fitness and is associated with numerous health benefits, including a reduced risk of heart disease, diabetes, and obesity. However, direct measurement of CRF is time-consuming and therefore not feasible for screening purposes. Methods: A maximal treadmill exercise test with the Bruce protocol was performed to estimate VO2max in 1047 Spanish men and women aged 17 to 62 years. Weight, height, and heart rate were measured. Leisure-time physical activity (LTPA) was recorded using the Minnesota Leisure Time Physical Activity Questionnaire. A multiple linear regression model was developed to predict exercise-based VO2max. The validity of the model was examined by correlation, concordance, Bland–Altman analysis, cross-validation, and construct validity analysis. Results: There was no significant difference between VO2max obtained by the Bruce protocol (43.56 mL/kg/min) or predicted by the equation (43.59 mL/kg/min), with R2 of 0.57, and a standard error of the estimate of 7.59 mL/kg/min. Pearson’s product–moment correlation and Lin’s concordance correlation between measured and predicted CRF values were 0.75 and 0.72, respectively. Bland–Altman analysis revealed a significant proportional bias of non-exercise eCRF, overestimating unfit and underestimating highly fit individuals. However, 64.3% of participants were correctly classified into CRF tertile categories, with an important 69.9% in the unfit category. Conclusions: The eCRF equation was associated with several cardiovascular risk factors in the anticipated directions, indicating good construct validity. In conclusion, the non-exercise eCRF showed a reasonable validity to estimate true VO2max, and it may be a useful tool for screening CRF.

Subjects: Medicine, Science
Abstract: Abstract Familial hypercholesterolemia (FH) is an autosomal dominant disease that has a prevalence of approximately 1/250 inhabitants and is the most frequent cause of early coronary heart disease (CHD). We included 1.343.973 women and 1.210.671 men with at least one LDL-c measurement from the Catalan primary care database. We identified 14.699 subjects with Familial hypercholesterolemia-Phenotype (FH-P) based on LDL-c cut-off points by age (7.033 and 919 women, and 5.088 and 1659 men in primary and secondary prevention, respectively). Lipid lower therapy (LLT), medication possession ratio (MPR) as an indicator of adherence, and number of patients that reached their goal on lipid levels were compared by sex. In primary and secondary prevention, 69% and 54% of women (P = 0.001) and 64% and 51% of men (P = 0.001) were on low-to-moderate-potency LLT. Adherence to LLT was reduced in women older than 55 years, especially in secondary prevention (P = 0.03), where the percentage of women and men with LDL-c > 1.81 mmol/L were 99.9% and 98.9%, respectively (P = 0.001). Women with FH-P are less often treated with high-intensity LLT, less adherent to LLT, and have a lower probability of meeting their LDL-c goals than men, especially in secondary prevention.

Author: Anna Vilalta-Lacarra, Joan Vilalta-Franch, Domènec Serrano-Sarbosa, Ruth Martí-Lluch, Jaume Marrugat, and Josep Garre-Olmo
Subjects: depressive syndrome, somatic symptoms, mortality, antidepressant drug, cancer, Psychology, BF1-990
Abstract: ObjectiveThis study aimed to assess the association of somatic depressive symptoms (SDS), cognitive/emotional depressive symptoms (C-EDS), and antidepressant treatment on mortality due to cancer and other causes in a community cohort.MethodsA community-based sample recruited in 1995, 2000, and 2005 aged between 35 and 75 years was examined in two waves and followed for a median of 6.7 years. SDS and C-EDS phenotypes were assessed using the Patient Health Questionnaire-9. Medication used by participants was collected. Deaths and their causes were registered during follow-up. Cox proportional hazard models stratified by sex were performed to determine the association between depressive phenotypes and mortality.ResultsThe cohort consisted of 5,646 individuals (53.9% women) with a mean age of 64 years (SD = 11.89). During the follow-up, 392 deaths were recorded, of which 27.8% were due to cancer. C-EDS phenotype was associated with an increased risk of cancer mortality in both men (HR = 2.23; 95% CI = 1.11–4.44) and women (HR = 3.69; 95% CI = 1.69–8.09), and SDS was significantly associated with non-cancer mortality in men (HR = 2.16; 95 CI % = 1.46–3.18). Selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors (SSRIs) were significantly associated with both cancer (HR = 2.78; 95% CI = 1.10–6.98) and non-cancer mortality (HR = 2.94; 95% CI = 1.76–4.90) only in the male population.ConclusionC-EDS phenotype was related to an increased risk of cancer mortality at 6 years. In addition, the use of SSRIs in the male population was associated with cancer and all-cause mortality.

5. The natural history of QTc interval and its clinical impact in coronavirus disease 2019 survivors after 1 year

Author: Diana Mojón-Álvarez, Andrea Izquierdo, Héctor Cubero-Gallego, Alicia Calvo-Fernández, Jaume Marrugat, Silvia Pérez-Fernández, Paula Cabero, Claudia Solà-Richarte, Cristina Soler, Núria Farré, and Beatriz Vaquerizo
Subjects: COVID-19, electrocardiogram (ECG), arrhythmia, QTc interval, mortality, Diseases of the circulatory (Cardiovascular) system, RC666-701
Abstract: Background and objectiveProlonged QTc interval on admission and a higher risk of death in SARS-CoV-2 patients have been reported. The long-term clinical impact of prolonged QTc interval is unknown. This study examined the relationship in COVID-19 survivors of a prolonged QTc on admission with long-term adverse events, changes in QTc duration and its impact on 1-year prognosis, and factors associated with a prolonged QTc at follow-up.MethodsWe conducted a single-center prospective cohort study of 523 SARS-CoV-2-positive patients who were alive on discharge. An electrocardiogram was taken on these patients within the first 48 h after diagnosis and before the administration of any medication with a known effect on QT interval and repeated in 421 patients 7 months after discharge. Mortality, hospital readmission, and new arrhythmia rates 1 year after discharge were reviewed.ResultsThirty-one (6.3%) survivors had a baseline prolonged QTc. They were older, had more cardiovascular risk factors, cardiac disease, and comorbidities, and higher levels of terminal pro-brain natriuretic peptide. There was no relationship between prolonged QTc on admission and the 1-year endpoint (9.8% vs. 5.5%, p = 0.212). In 84% of survivors with prolonged baseline QTc, it normalized at 7.9 ± 2.2 months. Of the survivors, 2.4% had prolonged QTc at follow-up, and this was independently associated with obesity, ischemic cardiomyopathy, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, and cancer. Prolonged baseline QTc was not independently associated with the composite adverse event at 1 year.ConclusionsProlonged QTc in the acute phase normalized in most COVID-19 survivors and had no clinical long-term impact. Prolonged QTc at follow-up was related to the presence of obesity and previously acquired chronic diseases and was not related to 1-year prognosis.

6. Five-Year Changes in Inflammatory, Metabolic, and Oxidative Biomarkers and 10-Year Cardiovascular Disease Incidence: The REGICOR Cohort Study

Author: Anna Camps-Vilaro, Isaac Subirana, Rafel Ramos, Miguel Cainzos-Achirica, Helena Tizon-Marcos, Montse Fito, Irene R. Degano, and Jaume Marrugat
Subjects: atherosclerosis, biomarkers, cardiovascular diseases, incidence, inflammation, interleukin-6, Biology (General), QH301-705.5, Chemistry, QD1-999
Abstract: Ischemic cardiovascular diseases (CVD) originate from an imbalance between atherosclerotic plaque formation, instability, and endothelial healing dynamics. Our aim was to examine the relationship between 5-year changes in inflammatory, metabolic, and oxidative biomarkers and 10-year CVD incidence in a population without previous CVD. This was a prospective cohort study of individuals aged 35–74 years (n = 419) randomly selected from 5263 REGICOR participants without CVD recruited in 2005. Biomarkers were measured at baseline and in 2010. Participants were followed up until 2020 for a composite CVD endpoint including coronary artery disease, stroke, and peripheral artery disease. We used Cox regression to analyze the effect of biomarker levels on the occurrence of the composite endpoint, adjusted for traditional CVD risk factors and baseline levels of each biomarker. Individuals with elevated IL-6 or insulin after 5 years had a higher independent risk of CVD at 10 years, compared to those with lower levels. Each rise of 1 pg/mL of IL-6 or 10 pg/mL of insulin increased the 10-year risk of a CVD event by 32% and 2%, respectively. Compared to a model with traditional CVD risk factors only, the inclusion of IL-6 and insulin improved continuous reclassification by 51%. Elevated serum levels of IL-6 and insulin were associated with a higher risk of CVD at 10 years, independently of traditional CVD risk factors.

Subjects: ST-elevation myocardial infarction, reperfusion, primary percutaneous coronary intervention, mortality, inequalities, Diseases of the circulatory (Cardiovascular) system, RC666-701
Abstract: BackgroundDespite the spread of ST-elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) emergency intervention networks, inequalities in healthcare access still have a negative impact on cardiovascular prognosis. The Family Income Ratio of Barcelona (FIRB) is a socioeconomic status (SES) indicator that is annually calculated. Our aim was to evaluate whether SES had an effect on mortality and complications in patients managed by the “Codi IAM” network in Barcelona.MethodsThis is a cohort study with 3,322 consecutive patients with STEMI treated in Barcelona from 2010 to 2016. Collected data include treatment delays, clinical and risk factor characteristics, and SES. The patients were assigned to three SES groups according to FIRB score. A logistic regression analysis was conducted to estimate the adjusted effect of SES on 30-day mortality, 30-day composite cardiovascular end point, and 1-year mortality.ResultsThe mean age of the patients was 65 ± 13% years, 25% were women, and 21% had diabetes mellitus. Patients with low SES were younger, more often hypertensive, diabetic, dyslipidemic (p < 0.003), had longer reperfusion delays (p < 0.03) compared to participants with higher SES. Low SES was not independently associated with 30-day mortality (OR: 0.95;9 5% CI: 0.7–1.3), 30-day cardiovascular composite end point (OR: 1.03; 95% CI: 0.84–1.26), or 1-year all-cause mortality (HR: 1.09; 95% CI: 0.76–1.56).ConclusionAlthough the low-SES patients with STEMI in Barcelona city were younger, had worse clinical profiles, and had longer revascularization delays, their 30-day and 1-year outcomes were comparable to those of the higher-SES patients.

Abstract: Background: Recently, common genetic risk factors for intracranial aneurysm (IA) and aneurysmal subarachnoid hemorrhage (ASAH) were found to explain a large amount of disease heritability and therefore have potential to be used for genetic risk prediction. We constructed a genetic risk score to (1) predict ASAH incidence and IA presence (combined set of unruptured IA and ASAH) and (2) assess its association with patient characteristics. Methods: A genetic risk score incorporating genetic association data for IA and 17 traits related to IA (so-called metaGRS) was created using 1161 IA cases and 407 392 controls from the UK Biobank population study. The metaGRS was validated in combination with risk factors blood pressure, sex, and smoking in 828 IA cases and 68 568 controls from the Nordic HUNT population study. Furthermore, we assessed association between the metaGRS and patient characteristics in a cohort of 5560 IA patients. Results: Per SD increase of metaGRS, the hazard ratio for ASAH incidence was 1.34 (95% CI, 1.20–1.51) and the odds ratio for IA presence 1.09 (95% CI, 1.01–1.18). Upon including the metaGRS on top of clinical risk factors, the concordance index to predict ASAH hazard increased from 0.63 (95% CI, 0.59–0.67) to 0.65 (95% CI, 0.62–0.69), while prediction of IA presence did not improve. The metaGRS was statistically significantly associated with age at ASAH (β=−4.82×10 −3 per year [95% CI, −6.49×10 −3 to −3.14×10 −3 ]; P =1.82×10 −8 ), and location of IA at the internal carotid artery (odds ratio=0.92 [95% CI, 0.86–0.98]; P =0.0041). Conclusions: The metaGRS was predictive of ASAH incidence, although with limited added value over clinical risk factors. The metaGRS was not predictive of IA presence. Therefore, we do not recommend using this metaGRS in daily clinical care. Genetic risk does partly explain the clinical heterogeneity of IA warranting prioritization of clinical heterogeneity in future genetic prediction studies of IA and ASAH.

Abstract: Accurate identification of individuals at high coronary risk would reduce acute coronary syndrome incidence and morbi-mortality. We analyzed the effect on coronary risk prediction of adding coronary artery calcification (CAC) and Segment Involvement Score (SIS) to cardiovascular risk factors. This was a prospective cohort study of asymptomatic patients recruited between 2013–2017. All participants underwent a coronary computed tomography angiography to determine CAC and SIS. The cohort was followed-up for a composite endpoint of myocardial infarction, coronary angiography and/or revascularization (median = five years). Discrimination and reclassification of the REGICOR function with CAC/SIS were examined with the Sommer’s D index and with the Net reclassification index (NRI). Nine of the 251 individuals included had an event. Of the included participants, 94 had a CAC = 0 and 85 a SIS = 0, none of them had an event. The addition of SIS or of SIS and CAC to the REGICOR risk function significantly increased the discrimination capacity from 0.74 to 0.89. Reclassification improved significantly when SIS or both scores were included. CAC and SIS were associated with five-year coronary event incidence, independently of cardiovascular risk factors. Discrimination and reclassification of the REGICOR risk function were significantly improved by both indexes, but SIS overrode the effect of CAC.

Abstract: Myocardial injury, which is present in >20% of patients hospitalized for COVID-19, is associated with increased short-term mortality, but little is known about its mid- and long-term consequences. We evaluated the association between myocardial injury with one-year mortality and readmission in 172 COVID-19 patients discharged alive. Patients were grouped according to the presence or absence of myocardial injury (defined by hs-cTn levels) on admission and matched by age and sex. We report mortality and hospital readmission at one year after admission in all patients and echocardiographic, laboratory and clinical data at six months in a subset of 86 patients. Patients with myocardial injury had a higher prevalence of hypertension (73.3% vs. 50.0%, p = 0.003), chronic kidney disease (10.5% vs. 2.35%, p = 0.06) and chronic heart failure (9.3% vs. 1.16%, p = 0.03) on admission. They also had higher mortality or hospital readmissions at one year (11.6% vs. 1.16%, p = 0.01). Additionally, echocardiograms showed thicker walls in these patients (10 mm vs. 8 mm, p = 0.002) but without functional disorder. Myocardial injury in COVID-19 survivors is associated with poor clinical prognosis at one year, independent of age and sex, but not with echocardiographic functional abnormalities at six months.

Abstract: People living with HIV (PLWH) have an increased risk of cardiovascular (CV) disease, likely due to a higher prevalence of CV risk factors. We compared the age-standardized prevalence and management of CV risk factors in PLWH to that of the general population in Spain. Blood pressure, lipid, glucose, and anthropometric profiles were cross-sectionally compared along with the treatment of hypertension, dyslipidemia, and diabetes in a general population cohort and a PLWH cohort. Prevalence rates were standardized by the direct method by 10-year age groups in European standard populations and stratified by gender. We included 47,593 individuals aged 35 to 74 years, 28,360 from the general population cohort and 19,233 from the PLWH cohort. Compared to the general population, PLWH had a higher concentration of triglycerides (>35 mg/dL in women and >26 mg/dL in men) and a higher prevalence of smoking (>23% and >17%) and diabetes (>9.9% and >8.5%). The prevalence of treated diabetes, hypertension, and dyslipidemia were up to three-fold lower in both women and men living with HIV. There was a significant difference in PLWH compared to the general population in the lipid, glucose, and anthropometric profile. In addition, PLWH were less often treated for diagnosed diabetes, hypertension, and dyslipidemia.

Subjects: body mass index, dna methylation, epigenome-wide study, obesity, waist, Genetics, QH426-470
Abstract: Obesity is associated with increased risk of several diseases and has become epidemic. Obesity is highly heritable but the genetic variants identified by genome-wide association studies explain only limited variability. Epigenetics could contribute to explain the missing variability. The study aim was to discover differential methylation patterns related to obesity. We designed an epigenome-wide association study with a discovery phase in a subsample of 641 REGICOR study participants, validated by analysis of 2,515 participants in the Framingham Offspring Study. Blood DNA methylation was assessed using Illumina HumanMethylation450 BeadChip. Next, we meta-analyzed the data using the fixed effects method and performed a functional and pathway analysis using the Ingenuity Pathway Analysis software. We were able to validate 94 CpGs associated with body mass index (BMI) and 49 CpGs associated with waist circumference, located in 95 loci. In addition, we newly discovered 70 CpGs associated with BMI and 33 CpGs related to waist circumference. These CpGs explained 25.94% and 29.22% of the variability of BMI and waist circumference, respectively, in the REGICOR sample. We also evaluated 65 of the 95 validated loci in the GIANT genome-wide association data; 10 of them had Tag SNPs associated with BMI. The top-ranked diseases and functions identified in the functional and pathway analysis were neurologic, psychological, endocrine, and metabolic.

Abstract: The present study aimed to determine the relationship between the prevalence of cardiovascular risk factors and the number and severity of coronary artery atherosclerotic lesions obtained by coronary angiography. We reviewed and analyzed 1642 records from consecutive patients at the Catheter Laboratory of Talca Regional Hospital in Chile between March 2018 and May 2019. Patients were stratified according to the presence and severity of atherosclerotic lesions: 632 (38.5%) had no lesions or p-values < 0.02). Serum potassium, glycaemia, creatinine and glomerular filtration rates were also associated with CALS-30 (all p-values < 0.01) in males. The age and the proportion of males with CALS-30 increased with the number of risk factors (p-values for trends < 0.001). Our results showed a stronger association between the accumulation of risk factors and CALS-30 in women than in men. Serum potassium levels were inversely associated with CALS-30 in men but not in women.

16. Trajectories of antidepressant use and 6-year change in body weight: a prospective population-based cohort study

Author: Camille Lassale, Gabriela Lugon, Álvaro Hernáez, Philipp Frank, Jaume Marrugat, Rafael Ramos, Josep Garre-Olmo, and Roberto Elosua
Abstract: Background: Antidepressant drug treatment may be associated with weight gain, but long-term studies are lacking. Methods: We included 3127 adults (1701 women) from the REGICOR study, on average aged 55.6 (SD=11.6) years in 2003-2006, living in North-East of Spain. They had data at two time points (baseline and a median of 6.3 years later) on self-reported antidepressant use, body weight and height, and on baseline smoking, physical activity, diet quality, education, civil status, and depressive symptoms assessed with the Patient Health Questionnaire (PHQ-9) at follow-up. We defined four trajectories of antidepressants use: never use, new use at follow-up, initial use discontinued, persistent use. We used multivariable linear models to estimate the association of these trajectories with the percentage of weight change. In people without obesity at baseline (n=2404), we also estimated the association with obesity incidence at follow-up. Results: The average 6-year weight gain was 0.53 kg (1.01% body weight), and 24.5% of the participants gained >5% of body weight. The majority (83.6%) of participants did not report any use of antidepressants, 6.2% initiated during follow-up, 5.1% discontinued it, and 5.1% reported their use at both time points. In multivariable analyses, compared to never users, all trajectories were associated with greater weight gain: +1.78% (0.57, 2.98) for initial use discontinued, +2.08% (0.97, 3.19) for new use at follow-up, and +1.98% (95% CI: 0.75, 3.20) for persistent use. In non-obese participants at baseline (n=2404), the odds ratio for becoming obese was 2.06 (1.03, 3.96) for persistent use, and non-statistically significant for the other trajectories. Conclusions: In a population-based adult cohort, persistent use of antidepressants was strongly associated with weight gain. New and discontinued use was associated with weight gain, but non-significantly to obesity incidence. In light of the obesity pandemic, weight management in the context of antidepressant prescriptions is warranted.

Abstract: Depressió; Epidemiologia; Personalitat Depresión; Epidemiología; Personalidad Depression; Epidemiology; Personality Background: We aimed to determine the prevalence and course of subthreshold depressive symptomatology (sDS) and probable major depressive episode (MDE) and to examine their association with personality traits among men and women. Methods: A community-based sample aged 35 years or older was examined in two waves (median follow-up of 6.9 years). The Patient Health Questionnaire-9 (PHQ-9) was used to assess sDS and MDE. The 10-item version of the Big Five Inventory was used to assess personality traits. Prevalence was assessed at baseline (n=5,557) and incidence and persistence-recurrence rates were computed at follow up (n=3,102). Logistic regression models were adjusted to explore the association of personality traits with prevalence and course of depressive disorders. Results: The prevalence of sDS and MDE was 14.04% (95% CI = 17.04-19.08) and 8.54 (95% CI=7.82-9.31), the incidence was 14.30 per 1,000 person-years (95% CI=12.49-16.31) and 4.34 per 1,000 person-years (95% CI=3.46-5.36), and the persistence-recurrence was 35.04 per 1,000 person-years (95% CI=29.00-41.96) and 28.8 per 1,000 person-years (95% CI=20.49-38.14). The gender gap was higher for MDE. Personality traits were differentially associated with the prevalence and course of depressive disorders between men and women. Limitations: Because this study used questionnaires to assess depressive disorders and personality traits, information bias could not be ruled out. Conclusions: The gender gap was higher for the prevalence and course of the probable MDE. There were more personality traits related with the course of the sDS and they had a major role in the course of the probable MDE in women. This study was supported by research grant STL006/17/00234 from the Strategic Plan for Health Research and Innovation (PERIS) 2016-2020 of the Department of Health. Government of Catalunya.

Abstract: Background: The prognostic value of a prolonged QT interval in SARS-Cov2 infection is not well known. Objective: To determine whether the presence of a prolonged QT on admission is an independent factor for mortality in SARS-Cov2 hospitalized patients. Methods: Single-center cohort of 623 consecutive patients with positive polymerase-chain-reaction test (PCR) to SARS Cov2, recruited from 27 February to 7 April 2020. An electrocardiogram was taken on these patients within the first 48 h after diagnosis and before the administration of any medication with a known effect on QT interval. A prolonged QT interval was defined as a corrected QT (QTc) interval >480 milliseconds. Patients were followed up with until 10 May 2020. Results: Sixty-one patients (9.8%) had prolonged QTc and only 3.2% had a baseline QTc > 500 milliseconds. Patients with prolonged QTc were older, had more comorbidities, and higher levels of immune-inflammatory markers. There were no episodes of ventricular tachycardia or ventricular fibrillation during hospitalization. All-cause death was higher in patients with prolonged QTc (41.0% vs. 8.7%, p < 0.001, multivariable HR 2.68 (1.58–4.55), p < 0.001). Conclusions: Almost 10% of patients with COVID-19 infection have a prolonged QTc interval on admission. A prolonged QTc was independently associated with a higher mortality even after adjustment for age, comorbidities, and treatment with hydroxychloroquine and azithromycin. An electrocardiogram should be included on admission to identify high-risk SARS-CoV-2 patients.

Dapagliflozin, a sodium-glucose cotransporter-2 (SGLT2) inhibitor, reduced cardiovascular mortality and hospitalization for HF compared to placebo in patients with chronic HF, and reduced ejection fraction (EF) in the Dapagliflozin and Prevention of Adverse Outcomes in Heart Failure (DAPA-HF) study. Our aim was to estimate the number of patients with DAPA-HF characteristics in Spain. Our literature review identified epidemiological studies whose objective was to quantify the prevalence of HF and its comorbidities in Spain. We estimated the prevalence of HF with reduced EF, of New York Heart Association (NYHA) functional class II–IV, and with a glomerular filtration rate (GFR) ≥ 30 mL/min/1.73 m². In this population, we analysed the prevalence of diabetes using data from the REDINSCOR (Spanish Network for Heart Failure) registry. Our estimations indicate there are 594,684 patients ≥45 years old with HF in Spain (2.6% of this population age group), of which 52.4%, 84.0%, and 93.9% have reduced EF, are NYHA II–IV, and have a GFR ≥ 30 mL/min/1.73 m², respectively. By our calculations, approximately 245,789 Spanish patients would meet the DAPA-HF patient profile, and therefore could benefit from the protective cardiovascular effects of dapagliflozin.

Abstract: Risk prediction tools cannot identify most individuals at high coronary artery disease (CAD) risk. Oxidized low-density lipoproteins (oxLDLs) and microRNAs are actively involved in atherosclerosis. Our aim was to examine the association of CAD and oxLDLs-induced microRNAs, and to assess the microRNAs predictive capacity of future CAD events. Human endothelial and vascular smooth muscle cells were treated with oxidized/native low-density lipoproteins, and microRNA expression was analyzed. Differentially expressed and CAD-related miRNAs were examined in serum samples from (1) a case-control study with 476 myocardial infarction (MI) patients and 487 controls, and (2) a case-cohort study with 105 incident CAD cases and 455 randomly-selected cohort participants. MicroRNA expression was analyzed with custom OpenArray plates, log rank tests and Cox regression models. Twenty-one microRNAs, two previously undescribed (hsa-miR-193b-5p and hsa-miR-1229-5p), were up- or down-regulated upon cell treatment with oxLDLs. One of the 21, hsa-miR-122-5p, was also upregulated in MI cases (fold change = 4.85). Of the 28 CAD-related microRNAs tested, 11 were upregulated in MI cases-1 previously undescribed (hsa-miR-16-5p)-, and 1/11 was also associated with CAD incidence (adjusted hazard ratio = 0.55 (0.35–0.88)) and improved CAD risk reclassification, hsa-miR-143-3p. We identified 2 novel microRNAs modulated by oxLDLs in endothelial cells, 1 novel microRNA upregulated in AMI cases compared to controls, and one circulating microRNA that improved CAD risk classification.

Abstract: Introduction and objectives COVID-19 is currently causing high mortality and morbidity worldwide. Information on cardiac injury is scarce. We aimed to evaluate cardiovascular damage in patients with COVID-19 and determine the correlation of high-sensitivity cardiac-specific troponin T (hs-cTnT) and N-terminal pro-B-type natriuretic peptide (NT-proBNP) with the severity of COVID-19. Methods We included 872 consecutive patients with confirmed COVID-19 from February to April 2020. We tested 651 patients for high-sensitivity troponin T (hs-TnT) and 506 for NT-proBNP on admission. Cardiac injury was defined as hs-TnT > 14ng/L, the upper 99th percentile. Levels of NT-proBNP > 300 pg/mL were considered related to some extent of cardiac injury. The primary composite endpoint was 30-day mortality or mechanical ventilation (MV). Results Cardiac injury by hs-TnT was observed in 34.6% of our COVID-19 patients. Mortality or MV were higher in cardiac injury than noncardiac injury patients (39.1% vs 9.1%). Hs-TnT and NT-proBNP levels were independent predictors of death or MV (HR, 2.18; 95%CI, 1.23-3.83 and 1.87 (95%CI, 1.05-3.36), respectively) and of mortality alone (HR, 2.91; 95%CI, 1.211-7.04 and 5.47; 95%CI, 2.10-14.26, respectively). NT-ProBNP significantly improved the troponin model discrimination of mortality or MV (C-index 0.83 to 0.84), and of mortality alone (C-index 0.85 to 0.87). Conclusions Myocardial injury measured at admission was a common finding in patients with COVID-19. It reliably predicted the occurrence of mortality and need of MV, the most severe complications of the disease. NT-proBNP improved the prognostic accuracy of hs-TnT.

Abstract: Resumen Introduccion y objetivos La practica de actividad fisica (AF) es un factor protector contra las enfermedades cardiovasculares y la mortalidad. Sin embargo, el patron de esta relacion aun no esta claro. El objetivo de este estudio es evaluar la relacion de la AF recreativa con los eventos cardiovasculares y la mortalidad total en una poblacion espanola. Metodos Cohorte prospectiva de 11.158 individuos de la poblacion general. La AF recreativa se evaluo mediante un cuestionario validado y se identificaron los casos mortales y los eventos cardiovasculares en el seguimiento (mediana, 7,24 anos). La asociacion entre la AF recreativa y los eventos de interes se analizo mediante modelos aditivos generalizados multivariados. Resultados Se observo una relacion no lineal entre la AF recreativa y la mortalidad total y los eventos cardiovasculares. La AF moderada-vigorosa se asocio con estos efectos beneficiosos, pero no la AF ligera. Se identifico un umbral en 400 MET-min/dia; por debajo de este, cada aumento de 100 MET-min/dia se asociaba con una reduccion del riesgo de mortalidad total del 16% (HR = 0,84; IC95%, 0,77-0,91), del riesgo de mortalidad cardiovascular del 27% (HR = 0,73; IC95%, 0,61-0,87) y del de eventos cardiovasculares del 12% (HR = 0,88; IC95%, 0,79-0,99). Por encima de 400 MET-min/dia no se observo un beneficio adicional. Conclusiones Existe una relacion inversa y no lineal de la AF recreativa de intensidad moderada-vigorosa con la enfermedad cardiovascular y la mortalidad.

Abstract: To explore the role of chronic inflammation inherent to autoimmune diseases in the development of subclinical atherosclerosis and arterial stiffness, this study recruited two population-based samples of individuals with and without autoimmune disease (ratio 1:5) matched by age, sex, and education level and with a longstanding (≥6 years) diagnosis of autoimmune disease. Common carotid intima-media thickness (IMT) and arterial distensibility and compliance were assessed with carotid ultrasound. Multivariable linear and logistic regression models were adjusted for 10-year cardiovascular risk. In total, 546 individuals with and without autoimmune diseases (91 and 455, respectively) were included. The mean age was 66 years (standard deviation 12), and 240 (43.9%) were women. Arterial stiffness did not differ according to the presence of autoimmune diseases. In men, the diagnosis of autoimmune diseases significantly increased common carotid IMT [beta-coefficient (95% confidence interval): 0.058 (0.009; 0.108); p value = 0.022] and the percentage with IMT ≥ 75th percentile [1.012 (0.145; 1.880); p value = 0.022]. Women without autoimmune disease were more likely to have IMT ≥ the 75th percentile [-2.181 (-4.214; -0.149); p value = 0.035], but the analysis of IMT as a continuous variable did not yield significant results. In conclusion, subclinical carotid atherosclerosis, but not arterial stiffness, was more common in men with autoimmune diseases. Women did not show significant differences in any of these carotid features. Sex was an effect modifier in the association between common carotid IMT values and the diagnosis of autoimmune diseases.

Abstract: To develop and validate a short questionnaire to estimate physical activity (PA) practice and sedentary behavior for the adult population.The short questionnaire was developed using data from a cross-sectional population-based survey (n = 6352) that included the Minnesota leisure-time PA questionnaire. Activities that explained a significant proportion of the variability of population PA practice were identified. Validation of the short questionnaire included a cross-sectional component to assess validity with respect to the data collected by accelerometers and a longitudinal component to assess reliability and sensitivity to detect changes (n = 114, aged 35 to 74 years).Six types of activities that accounted for 87% of population variability in PA estimated with the Minnesota questionnaire were selected. The short questionnaire estimates energy expenditure in total PA and by intensity (light, moderate, vigorous), and includes 2 questions about sedentary behavior and a question about occupational PA. The short questionnaire showed high reliability, with intraclass correlation coefficients ranging between 0.79 to 0.95. The Spearman correlation coefficients between estimated energy expenditure obtained with the questionnaire and the number of steps detected by the accelerometer were as follows: 0.36 for total PA, 0.40 for moderate intensity, and 0.26 for vigorous intensity. The questionnaire was sensitive to detect changes in moderate and vigorous PA (correlation coefficients ranging from 0.26 to 0.34).The REGICOR short questionnaire is reliable, valid, and sensitive to detect changes in moderate and vigorous PA. This questionnaire could be used in daily clinical practice and epidemiological studies.

Abstract: Resumen Las estrategias de prevención de las enfermedades cardiovasculares necesitan refinamiento porque su incidencia se reduce muy lentamente. Las funciones de riesgo incorporaron los factores de riesgo clásicos (edad, sexo, consumo de tabaco, diabetes, presión arterial, y perfil lipídico básico) en cohortes seguidas generalmente más de 10 años. Son razonablemente precisas para el cribado poblacional del riesgo de enfermedad coronaria exigido en las guías de práctica clínica. Clasifican a los pacientes en niveles de riesgo para concentrar un mayor esfuerzo terapéutico y preventivo en los de mayor riesgo, y en los que el número necesario a tratar y el coste-efectividad son óptimos. Proporcionar el riesgo relativo y de la edad vascular al paciente, le motiva a cumplir seguir tratamientos y estilos de vida. Alrededor del 20% de la población de 35 a 74 años tiene riesgo intermedio y requiere reclasificación a alto o bajo riesgo porque concentra 35% de eventos poblacionales de enfermedad coronaria. Se ensayan nuevos biomarcadores (bioquímicos, genéticos o de imagen) para mejorar la precisión de las predicciones. Si los equipos informáticos de los sistemas de salud incorporaran el cálculo automatizado del riesgo se facilitaría la tarea preventiva del personal asistencial.

Abstract: In the statin era, the incidence of atherosclerotic cardiovascular diseases (ASCVD) in patients with familial hypercholesterolemia (FH) has not been updated. We aimed to determine the incidence of ASCVD in patients with FH-phenotype (FH-P) and to compare it with that of normal low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C) patients. We performed a retrospective cohort study using the Database of the Catalan primary care system, including ≥18-year-old patients with an LDL-C measurement. From 1,589,264 patients available before 2009, 12,823 fulfilled FH-P criteria and 514,176 patients were normolipidemic (LDL-C < 115 mg/dL). In primary prevention, patients with FH-P had incidences of ASCVD and coronary heart disease (CHD) of 14.9/1000 and 5.8/1000 person-years, respectively, compared to 7.1/1000 and 2.1/1000 person-years in the normolipidemic group. FH-P showed hazard ratio (HR) of 7.1 and 16.7 for ASCVD and CHD, respectively, in patients younger than 35 years. In secondary prevention, patients with FH-P had incidences of ASCVD and CHD of 89.7/1000 and 34.5/1000 person-years, respectively, compared to 90.9/1000 and 28.2/1000 person-years in the normolipidemic group (HR in patients younger than 35 years: 2.4 and 6.0). In the statin era, FH-P remains associated with high cardiovascular risk, compared with the normolipidemic population. This excess of risk is markedly high in young individuals.

Abstract: We assessed the correlation between the biomarkers of lower limb atherosclerosis (eg, ankle-brachial index [ABI]) and of carotid atherosclerosis (eg, common carotid intima-media thickness (IMT) and presence of atherosclerotic plaque) in a population-based cohort from Girona (Northwest Spain) recruited in 2010. Ankle-brachial index and carotid ultrasound were performed in all participants. Generalized additive multivariable models were used to adjust a regression model of common carotid IMT on ABI. Logistic regression multivariable models were adjusted to assess the probability of carotid plaque in individuals with peripheral artery disease. We included 3307 individuals (54.2% women), mean age 60 years (standard deviation 11). Two patterns of association were observed between subclinical biomarkers of atherosclerosis at the lower limb and carotid artery. Ankle-brachial index and common carotid IMT showed a linear trend in men [beta coefficient (95% confidence interval) =-.068 (−.123; −.012); P = .016]. Women with peripheral artery disease presented with high risk of atherosclerotic plaque at the carotid artery [Odds ratio (95% confidence interval) = 2.61, (1.46; 4.69); P = .001]. Men showed a significant linear association between ABI levels and common carotid IMT values. Women with peripheral artery disease presented with high risk of atherosclerotic plaque at the carotid artery.

Abstract: Resumen Introduccion y objetivos Se considera que los individuos con disminucion leve-moderada de la tasa de filtrado glomerular estimada (TFGe, 30-59 ml/min/1,73 m 2 ) estan en alto riesgo de enfermedad cardiovascular (ECV). Ningun estudio ha comparado este riesgo con TFGe 30-59, diabetes mellitus (DM) y enfermedad coronaria (EC) en regiones con baja incidencia de EC. Metodos Se realizo un estudio de cohortes retrospectivo en 122.443 individuos de 60-84 anos de una region de baja incidencia de EC con creatinina determinada entre el 1 de enero de 2010 y 31 de diciembre de 2011. Se identificaron los ingresos por EC (infarto de miocardio, angina de pecho) o ECV (EC, accidente cerebrovascular o accidente isquemico transitorio) hasta el 31 de diciembre de 2013 segun registros electronicos. Se estimaron las tasas de incidencia y la subdistribution hazard ratio (sHR) ajustadas mediante regresion de Cox considerando los riesgos competitivos en individuos con TFGe 30-59, DM y EC o combinaciones, respecto a individuos sin estas afecciones. Resultados La mediana de seguimiento fue de 38,3 [intervalo intercuartilico, 33,8-42,7] meses. Las sHR de EC de los individuos con TFGe 30-59, DM, TFGe 30-59 mas DM, EC previa, EC mas DM y EC mas TFGe 30-59 mas DM fueron, respectivamente, 1,34 (IC95%, 1,04-1,74), 1,61 (IC95%, 1,36-1,90), 1,96 (IC95%, 1,42-2,70), 4,33 (IC95%, 3,58-5,25), 7,05 (IC95%, 5,80-8,58) y 7,72 (IC95%, 5,72-10,41), y las sHR de ECV, 1,25 (IC95%, 1,06-1,46), 1,56 (IC95%, 1,41-1,74), 1,83 (IC95%, 1,50-2,23), 2,86 (IC95%, 2,48-3,29), 4,54 (IC95%, 3,93-5,24) y 5,33 (IC95%, 4,31-6,60). Conclusiones Los individuos de 60-84 anos con TFGe 30-59, de modo similar que la DM, presentaron un riesgo de ingreso por EC y ECV un 50% inferior que aquellos con EC previa.

Abstract: Assessment of individual cardiovascular risk, distinguishing primary and secondary prevention, would improve the clinical management of the population with familial hypercholesterolemia. We aimed to develop and validate two risk functions to predict incident and recurrent atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease (ASCVD) in a primary care-based population with familial hypercholesterolemia phenotype (FHP), and to compare their predictive capacity with that of the SpAnish Familial hypErcHolEsterolemiA cohoRT (SAFEHEART) risk equation (SAFEHEART-RE).Data from the Catalan primary care system database (SIDIAP) of patients ≥18 years old with FHP in 2006-2013 were used to develop and validate two risk functions to predict incident and recurrent ASCVD. A validation dataset was also used to compare the model predictive capacity to that of SAFEHEART-RE.The new model (SIDIAP-FHP) included age, diabetes, smoking, sex (male), hypertension, and baseline low-density lipoprotein cholesterol in the primary prevention cohort and age, diabetes, smoking, and disease characteristics (progressive, recent, polyvascular, or included myocardial infarction) in the secondary prevention cohort. The models demonstrated a fair fit: C-Statistic: 0.71 (95%CI:0.68-0.75) in primary prevention and 0.65 (95%CI:0.60-0.70) in secondary prevention (higher than that of SAFEHEART-RE: 0.64 [95%CI:0.60-0.68] and 0.55 [95%CI:0.51-0.59], respectively; both p 0.01). The Brier scores obtained with the SIDIAP-FHP score were significantly lower than that obtained with SAFEHEART-RE in both the primary and secondary prevention cohorts.The SIDIAP-FHP score provides accurate ASCVD risk estimates for primary and secondary prevention in the FHP population, with better predictive capacity than that of SAFEHEART-RE in this general population, especially in persons with previous ASCVD.

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

41. Association of physical activity with high-density lipoprotein functionality in a population-based cohort: the REGICOR study

Subjects: General Medicine
Abstract: To determine the dose-response association between current and past leisure-time physical activity (LTPA), total and at different intensities, and high-density lipoprotein (HDL) functionality parameters.Study participants (n=642) were randomly drawn from a large population-based survey. Mean age of the participants was 63.2 years and 51.1% were women. The analysis included data from a baseline and a follow-up visit (median follow-up, 4 years). LTPA was assessed using validated questionnaires at both visits. Two main HDL functions were assessed: cholesterol efflux capacity and HDL antioxidant capacity, at the follow-up visit. Linear regression and linear additive models were used to assess the linear and nonlinear association between LTPA and HDL functionality.Total LTPA at follow-up showed an inverse and linear relationship between 0 and 400 METs x min/d with HDL antioxidant capacity (regression coefficient [beta]: -0.022; 95%CI, -0.030, -0.013), with a plateau above this threshold. The results were similar for moderate (beta: -0.028; 95%CI, -0.049, -0.007) and vigorous (beta: -0.025; 95%CI, -0.043, -0.007), but not for light-intensity LTPA. LTPA at follow-up was not associated with cholesterol efflux capacity. Baseline LTPA was not associated with any of the HDL functionality parameters analyzed.Current moderate and vigorous LTPA showed a nonlinear association with higher HDL antioxidant capacity. Maximal benefit was observed with low-intermediate doses of total LTPA (up to 400 METs x min/d). Our results agree with current recommendations for moderate-vigorous LTPA practice and suggest an association between PA and HDL functionality in the general population.

Abstract: Objetivo: Estudiar la validez del cuestionario cardiovascular Multinational Monitoring of Trends and Determinants in Cardiovascular Disease (MONICA) comparado con la historia clínica. Métodos: Estudio descriptivo, prospectivo, multicéntrico, realizado en 3.329 personas >50 años de edad (estudio ARTPER [arteriografía periférica]). La muestra se seleccionó por muestreo aleatorio simple en 32 centros de salud de atención primaria. Los diagnósticos considerados fueron: infarto agudo de miocardio, ángor, enfermedad vascular cerebral, hipertensión arterial, diabetes mellitus e hipercolesterolemia. Se estudió además el tratamiento con antihipertensivos, hipolipemiantes o insulina, hipoglucemiantes y antiagregantes o anticoagulantes. La validez entre cuestionario y registro en la historia clínica se estudió con la sensibilidad, la especificidad, los valores predictivos y el índice kappa. Resultados: La edad media fue de 65 años (desviación estándar: 8,9), y el 54,8% eran mujeres. La sensibilidad del cuestionario fue >90% en todas las variables, excepto en el ángor (89,9%) y la enfermedad vascular cerebral (86,5%). La especificidad también fue >90%, excepto en el ángor (88,3%) y la hipercolesterolemia (77,5%). El valor predictivo positivo fue >90% en todos los tratamientos farmacológicos; >80% en el ángor, el infarto agudo de miocardio y la hipertensión arterial; 79,4% en la enfermedad vascular cerebral; 79,1% en la hipercolesterolemia, y 73,4% en la diabetes mellitus. Los valores predictivos negativos fueron >90% en todos los casos. Los índices kappa fueron >0,80 en todas las variables, excepto en la hipercolesterolemia (0,69) y la diabetes mellitus (0,79). Conclusiones: El cuestionario cardiovascular MONICA es un método válido para encuestar a las personas >50 años sobre sus enfermedades, factores de riesgo y tratamientos cardiovasculares.Objective: To assess the validity of the questionnaire Multinational Monitoring of Trends and Determinants in Cardiovascular Disease (MONICA) compared with clinical records. Methods: A descriptive, prospective, multicenter study was performed within the framework of the Peripheral Arterial Disease Study (PERART) in 3,329 persons aged >50 years old. The sample was selected by simple random sampling in 32 primary health care centers. The diagnoses included were acute myocardial infarction, angina pectoris, cerebrovascular disease, hypertension, diabetes mellitus, and hypercholesterolemia. Treatment variables were also considered (antihypertensive, lipid-lowering and hypoglycemic agents or insulin, as well as antiplatelet or anticoagulant agents). The sensitivity, specificity, predictive values, and kappa index were computed to test the validity of the MONICA questionnaire. Results: The mean age was 65 years (SD 8.9) and 54.8% were women. The sensitivity of the questionnaire was >90% for all the variables apart from angina pectoris (89.9%) and cerebrovascular disease (86.5%). Specificity was also >90%, except for angina pectoris (88.3%) and hypercholesterolemia (77.5%). The positive predictive value was >90% for all the treatments; >80% for angina pectoris, acute myocardial infarction and hypertension; 79.4% for cerebrovascular disease; 79.1% for hypercholesterolemia and 73.4% for diabetes mellitus. The negative predictive value was >90% for all the variables. The kappa indexes were >0.80 for all the variables apart from hypercholesterolemia (0.69) and diabetes mellitus (0.79). Conclusions: The MONICA cardiovascular questionnaire is valid in the assessment of cardiovascular disease, risk factors and treatments in patients aged >50 years old.

Abstract: The present study aimed to determine the relationship between the prevalence of cardiovascular risk factors and the number and severity of coronary artery atherosclerotic lesions obtained by coronary angiography. We reviewed and analyzed 1642 records from consecutive patients at the Catheter Laboratory of Talca Regional Hospital in Chile between March 2018 and May 2019. Patients were stratified according to the presence and severity of atherosclerotic lesions: 632 (38.5%) had no lesions or &lt, 30% stenosis and 1010 (61.5%) had at least one coronary atherosclerotic lesion with ≥30% stenosis (CALS-30). CALS-30 was more frequent in males, smokers, and patients with diabetes and/or hypertension (all p-values &lt, 0.02). Serum potassium, glycaemia, creatinine and glomerular filtration rates were also associated with CALS-30 (all p-values &lt, 0.01) in males. The age and the proportion of males with CALS-30 increased with the number of risk factors (p-values for trends &lt, 0.001). Our results showed a stronger association between the accumulation of risk factors and CALS-30 in women than in men. Serum potassium levels were inversely associated with CALS-30 in men but not in women.

Abstract: INTRODUCTION:The aim of this study was to determine prognostic factors for the risk of new vascular events during the first 6 months after acute myocardial infarction (AMI) or atherothrombotic stroke (AS). We were interested in the prognostic role of endothelial progenitor cells (EPC) and circulating endothelial cells (CEC). METHODS:Between February 2009 and July 2012, 100 AMI and 50 AS patients were consecutively studied in three Spanish centres. Patients with previously documented coronary artery disease or ischemic strokes were excluded. Samples were collected within 24h of onset of symptoms. EPC and CEC were studied using flow cytometry and categorized by quartiles. Patients were followed for up to 6 months. NVE was defined as new acute coronary syndrome, transient ischemic attack (TIA), stroke, or any hospitalization or death from cardiovascular causes. The variables included in the analysis included: vascular risk factors, carotid intima-media thickness (IMT), atherosclerotic burden and basal EPC and CEC count. Multivariate survival analysis was performed using Cox regression analysis. RESULTS:During follow-up, 19 patients (12.66%) had a new vascular event (5 strokes; 3 TIAs; 4 AMI; 6 hospitalizations; 1 death). Vascular events were associated with age (P = 0.039), carotid IMT≥0.9 (P = 0.044), and EPC count (P = 0.041) in the univariate analysis. Multivariate Cox regression analysis showed an independent association with EPC in the lowest quartile (HR: 10.33, 95%CI (1.22-87.34), P = 0.032] and IMT≥0.9 [HR: 4.12, 95%CI (1.21-13.95), P = 0.023]. CONCLUSIONS:Basal EPC and IMT≥0.9 can predict future vascular events in patients with AMI and AS, but CEC count does not affect cardiovascular risk.
