Fitness attenuates long-term cardiovascular outcomes in women with ischemic heart disease and metabolic syndrome.

ABSTRACT:

Background

The prevalence of metabolic syndrome continues to increase steadily while fitness remains relatively low. The contribution of fitness on longer-term cardiovascular outcomes and mortality in individuals with cardiovascular disease and metabolic syndrome remains unknown.

Design

Women's Ischemia Syndrome Evaluation (WISE) prospective cohort (enrolled 1996-2001) of women undergoing invasive coronary angiography with signs/symptoms of ischemic heart disease.

Methods

Investigated the association of fitness, defined as >7METs measured by self-reported Duke Activity Status Index (DASI), and both metabolic syndrome (ATPIII criteria) and dysmetabolism (ATPIII criteria and/or treated diabetes) with long-term cardiovascular outcomes and all-cause mortality risk.

Results

Among the 492 women followed for a median of 8.6 years (range 0-11 years), 19.5% were fit-metabolically healthy (reference), 14.4% fit-metabolic syndrome, 29.9% unfit-metabolically healthy, and 36.2% unfit-metabolic syndrome. Compared to reference, MACE risk was 1.52-fold higher in fit-metabolic syndrome women (HR 1.52, 95% CI 1.03-2.26) and 2.42-fold higher in unfit-metabolic syndrome women (HR 2.42, 95% CI 1.30-4.48). Compared to reference, mortality risk was 1.96-fold higher in fit-dysmetabolism (HR 1.96, 95% CI 1.29-3.00) and 3-fold higher in unfit-dysmetabolism women (HR 3.0, 95% CI 1.66-5.43).

Conclusions

In a high risk cohort of women with signs/symptoms of ischemic heart disease, unfit-metabolically healthy and fit-metabolically unhealthy women were at higher risk of long-term MACE and mortality compared to fit-metabolically healthy women; and women who were unfit and metabolically unhealthy were at the highest risk. Our study demonstrates that metabolic health and fitness play an important role in long term outcomes that warrants further investigation.

Project description:BackgroundWomen who deliver pre-term have been reported to have increased future risks of cardiometabolic disorders. However, their long-term risks of ischemic heart disease (IHD) and whether such risks are due to shared familial factors are unclear. A better understanding of these risks may help improve long-term clinical follow-up and interventions to prevent IHD in women.ObjectivesThe purpose of this study was to determine the long-term risks of IHD in women by pregnancy duration.MethodsA national cohort study was conducted of all 2,189,190 women with a singleton delivery in Sweden from 1973 to 2015, who were followed up for IHD through the end of 2015. Cox regression was used to compute adjusted hazard ratios (aHRs) for IHD associated with pregnancy duration, and cosibling analyses assessed the influence of shared familial (genetic and/or environmental) factors.ResultsIn 47.5 million person-years of follow-up, 49,955 (2.3%) women were diagnosed with IHD. In the 10 years following delivery, the aHR for IHD associated with pre-term delivery (<37 weeks) was 2.47 (95% confidence interval [CI]: 2.16 to 2.82), and further stratified was 4.04 (95% CI: 2.69 to 6.08) for extremely pre-term (22 to 27 weeks), 2.62 (95% CI: 2.09 to 3.29) for very pre-term (28 to 33 weeks), 2.30 (95% CI: 1.97 to 2.70) for late pre-term (34 to 36 weeks), and 1.47 (95% CI: 1.30 to 1.65) for early-term (37 to 38 weeks), compared with full-term (39 to 41 weeks). These risks declined but remained significantly elevated after additional follow-up (pre-term vs. full-term, 10 to 19 years: aHR: 1.86; 95% CI: 1.73 to 1.99; 20 to 29 years: aHR: 1.52; 95% CI: 1.45 to 1.59; 30 to 43 years: aHR: 1.38; 95% CI: 1.32 to 1.45). These findings did not appear attributable to shared genetic or environmental factors within families. Additional pre-term deliveries were associated with further increases in risk.ConclusionsIn this large national cohort, pre-term delivery was a strong independent risk factor for IHD. This association waned over time but remained substantially elevated up to 40 years later. Pre-term delivery should be recognized as a risk factor for IHD in women across the life course.

Project description:BackgroundObesity and metabolic syndrome (MetS) are known to expose to atrial fibrillation (AF), cardiovascular diseases (CVD) and mortality. Metabolically healthy obesity refers to obesity without MetS. This study aimed to investigate how obesity and MetS modify the risk of CVD, AF and mortality in very long-time follow-up.MethodsFinnish middle-aged subjects (n = 1045) were grouped into four subgroups according to the presence of obesity and MetS. CVD events and AF were followed for 24 years and total mortality for 30 years. Moreover, 600 available patients had a follow-up visit for metabolic examinations after approximately 22 years.ResultsOne-hundred and sixty-two (30%) subjects without obesity or MetS died during the follow-up. Ninety-two (17%) of the patients in this group had a CVD event and 58 (11%) were diagnosed with AF. As compared to them, obese subjects without MetS had similar metabolic fate and mortality (mortality 26 (38%), p = .143; CVD event 12 (18%), p = .858 and AF 7 (10%), p = .912, respectively), whereas subjects with obesity and MetS had greater mortality (102 (49%), p < .001), more CVD (71 (34%), p < .001) and AF (49 (23%), p < .001). Non-obese individuals with MetS had greater rates of mortality (96 (44%), p < .001) and CVD (80 (37%), p < .001), but not of AF (26 (12%), p = .606). Of the 40 subjects with obesity but without MetS at baseline and available for the follow-up visit, 15 (38%) were metabolically healthy at the follow-up visit.ConclusionsIn the present long-term follow-up study, the presence of MetS, but not obesity only, implies a greater risk of mortality and CVD. The risk of AF is increased only in subjects with both obesity and MetS. However, obesity without MetS tends to progress eventually to obesity with MetS. Key messagesThe presence of metabolic syndrome (MetS), but not obesity only, entails a greater risk of mortality and cardiovascular diseases.The risk of atrial fibrillation is increased only in subjects with both obesity and MetS.Obesity without MetS tends to progress eventually to obesity with MetS.

Project description:BackgroundHistory of a hypertensive disorder of pregnancy (HDP) among women may be useful to refine atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease risk assessments. However, future risk of diverse cardiovascular conditions in asymptomatic middle-aged women with prior HDP remains unknown.ObjectivesThe purpose of this study was to examine the long-term incidence of diverse cardiovascular conditions among middle-aged women with and without prior HDP.MethodsWomen in the prospective, observational UK Biobank age 40 to 69 years who reported ≥1 live birth were included. Noninvasive arterial stiffness measurement was performed in a subset of women. Cox models were fitted to associate HDP with incident cardiovascular diseases. Causal mediation analyses estimated the contribution of conventional risk factors to observed associations.ResultsOf 220,024 women included, 2,808 (1.3%) had prior HDP. The mean age at baseline was 57.4 ± 7.8 years, and women were followed for median 7 years (interquartile range: 6.3 to 7.7 years). Women with HDP had elevated arterial stiffness indexes and greater prevalence of chronic hypertension compared with women without HDP. Overall, 7.0 versus 5.3 age-adjusted incident cardiovascular conditions occurred per 1,000 women-years for women with versus without prior HDP, respectively (p = 0.001). In analysis of time-to-first incident cardiovascular diagnosis, prior HDP was associated with a hazard ratio (HR) of 1.3 (95% CI: 1.04 to 1.60; p = 0.02). HDP was associated with greater incidence of CAD (HR: 1.8; 95% CI: 1.3 to 2.6; p < 0.001), heart failure (HR: 1.7; 95% CI: 1.04 to 2.60; p = 0.03), aortic stenosis (HR: 2.9; 95% CI: 1.5 to 5.4; p < 0.001), and mitral regurgitation (HR: 5.0; 95% CI: 1.5 to 17.1; p = 0.01). In causal mediation analyses, chronic hypertension explained 64% of HDP's association with CAD and 49% of HDP's association with heart failure.ConclusionsHypertensive disorders of pregnancy are associated with accelerated cardiovascular aging and more diverse cardiovascular conditions than previously appreciated, including valvular heart disease. Cardiovascular risk after HDP is largely but incompletely mediated by development of chronic hypertension.
