The association between arterial stiffness and cancer occurrence: Data from Kailuan cohort study.

ABSTRACT:

Background

This study aimed to investigate whether increased arterial stiffness, measured by brachial-ankle pulse wave velocity (baPWV) is associated with cancer.

Materials and methods

A total of 45,627 Chinese adults underwent a baPWV examination. The participants were followed up from 1st January 2012 to 31st December 2018. Cox proportional hazards model was used to assess the association between the baPWV values and cancer.

Results

During a total follow-up duration of 172,775.69 person-years, there were 553 new cases of cancer. The subjects in the highest baPWV group showed an increased risk of cancer when compared with the lowest baPWV group as confirmed by multivariate-adjusted hazard ratios (HR = 1.51, 95% CI = 1.14∼2.00) in the entire cohort. Compared with participants in the lowest baPWV group, the HRs (95% CI) for digestive cancer in the second and third groups were 1.55 (1.00∼2.40) and 1.99 (1.19∼3.33), respectively. The Kaplan-Meier analysis demonstrated a significant increase in cancer in participants with a baPWV ≥ 18 m/s (P < 0.001). Compared with the lowest baPWV group, the highest baPWV group showed an increased risk of cancer in men (HR = 1.72, 95% CI = 1.22∼2.43) and those < 60 years (HR = 1.75, 95% CI = 1.20∼2.55), respectively.

Conclusion

Increased arterial stiffness measured by baPWV is associated with cancer occurrence, especially digestive cancer occurrence.

Project description:BackgroundTriglyceride-glucose (TyG) index, a simple surrogate marker of insulin resistance, has been reported to be associated with arterial stiffness. However, previous studies were limited by the cross-sectional design. The purpose of this study was to explore the longitudinal association between TyG index and progression of arterial stiffness.MethodsA total of 6028 participants were derived from the Kailuan study. TyG index was calculated as ln [fasting triglyceride (mg/dL) × fasting glucose (mg/dL)/2]. Arterial stiffness was measured using brachial-ankle pulse wave velocity (baPWV). Arterial stiffness progression was assessed by the annual growth rate of repeatedly measured baPWV. Multivariate linear regression models were used to estimate the cross-sectional association of TyG index with baPWV, and Cox proportional hazard models were used to investigate the longitudinal association between TyG index and the risk of arterial stiffness.ResultsMultivariate linear regression analyses showed that each one unit increase in the TyG index was associated with a 39 cm/s increment (95%CI, 29-48 cm/s, P < 0.001) in baseline baPWV and a 0.29 percent/year increment (95%CI, 0.17-0.42 percent/year, P < 0.001) in the annual growth rate of baPWV. During 26,839 person-years of follow-up, there were 883 incident cases with arterial stiffness. Participants in the highest quartile of TyG index had a 58% higher risk of arterial stiffness (HR, 1.58; 95%CI, 1.25-2.01, P < 0.001), as compared with those in the lowest quartile of TyG index. Additionally, restricted cubic spline analysis showed a significant dose-response relationship between TyG index and the risk of arterial stiffness (P non-linearity = 0.005).ConclusionParticipants with a higher TyG index were more likely to have a higher risk of arterial stiffness. Subjects with a higher TyG index should be aware of the following risk of arterial stiffness progression, so as to establish lifestyle changes at an early stage.

Project description:BackgroundConduit arteries, especially the aorta, play a major role in ensuring efficient cardiac function and optimal microvascular flow due to their viscoelastic properties. Studies in animals and on isolated arteries show that acute systemic inflammation can cause aortic stiffening which affects hemodynamic efficiency. Carotid-femoral pulse wave velocity, a measure of aortic stiffness, may be useful as a bedside investigational method in patients with early sepsis admitted to intensive care, as circulatory changes can lead to multiple organ failure and increased mortality. This study aims to investigate arterial stiffness in early sepsis and its association with clinical outcomes.MethodsThis prospective observational study included adult patients with severe sepsis or septic shock admitted to our intensive care unit (n = 45). Their carotid-femoral pulse wave velocity was measured within 24 h of admission. We assessed the progression of multiple organ as well as cardiovascular failure by sequential SOFA scores. Prediction models for the progression of multiple organ and cardiovascular failure were constructed using multivariate logistic regression with pulse wave velocity and vasopressor use as predictors. A Cox proportional hazards model was used to examine the relationship between pulse wave velocity and survival time.ResultsThe median pulse wave velocity for the cohort was 14.6 (8.1-24.7) m/s. There was no association between pulse wave velocity and the progression of multiple organ failure, before or after adjustment for vasopressor use. No association was found between pulse wave velocity and subsequent improvement in cardiovascular failure in the subgroup of patients who had cardiovascular instability at baseline. Cox regression and survival analyses with age, APACHE II, and baseline SOFA as confounders showed a shorter hospital survival time for patients with pulse wave velocity > 24.7 m/s (HR = 9.45, 95% CI 1.24-72.2; P = 0.03).ConclusionsPatients with severe sepsis and septic shock admitted to intensive care have higher arterial stiffness than in the general population. No convincing association was found between pulse wave velocity at admission and the progression of multiple organ or cardiovascular failure, although the group with pulse wave velocity > 24.7 m/s had shorter survival time.
