A Posteriori Dietary Patterns and Coronary Artery Disease in a Greek Case-Control Study.

ABSTRACT:

Introduction

Diet is one of the most important modifiable risk factors associated with cardiovascular health (CH). Research identifying dietary patterns (DPs) through data-driven analysis and reporting associations between DPs and coronary artery disease (CAD) outcomes is rather limited.

Objective

The aim of the present report was to generate DPs through factor analysis (FA) and to examine their association with CAD risk.

Methods

Participants (n = 1017) consisted of cases diagnosed with CAD (n = 356) and controls (n = 661) drawn from the THISEAS study. Demographic, anthropometric and lifestyle data were collected. Dietary components were generated through FA. Logistic regression analysis was performed to estimate CAD relative risks.

Results

FA generated seven dietary components, explaining 53.5% of the total variation in intake. The Western-type DP showed a modest significant association with CAD risk, after controlling for confounders (OR = 1.20; 95% CI = 1.09-1.32, p < 0.001). The vegetarian-type DP was not significantly associated with the likelihood of CAD (OR = 0.95; 95% CI = 0.84-1.04, p = 0.259).

Discussion

The Western-type DP was positively associated with CAD risk and the odds were further increased after controlling for confounders. This finding is in concordance with previously reported positive associations between Western patterns and CAD risk. Limited data exist regarding a posteriori DPs and their effect on CAD risk.

Project description:Lung cancer in men and breast cancer in women are the most commonly diagnosed cancers in Poland and worldwide. Results of studies involving dietary patterns (DPs) and breast or lung cancer risk in European countries outside the Mediterranean Sea region are limited and inconclusive. This study aimed to develop a 'Polish-adapted Mediterranean Diet' ('Polish-aMED') score, and then study the associations between the 'Polish-aMED' score and a posteriori-derived dietary patterns with breast or lung cancer risk in adult Poles. This pooled analysis of two case-control studies involved 560 subjects (280 men, 280 women) aged 40-75 years from Northeastern Poland. Diagnoses of breast cancer in 140 women and lung cancer in 140 men were found. The food frequency consumption of 21 selected food groups was collected using a 62-item Food Frequency Questionnaire (FFQ)-6. The 'Polish-adapted Mediterranean Diet' score which included eight items-vegetables, fruit, whole grain, fish, legumes, nuts and seeds-as well as the ratio of vegetable oils to animal fat and red and processed meat was developed (range: 0-8 points). Three DPs were identified in a Principal Component Analysis: 'Prudent', 'Non-healthy', 'Dressings and sweetened-low-fat dairy'. In a multiple logistic regression analysis, two models were created: crude, and adjusted for age, sex, type of cancer, Body Mass Index (BMI), socioeconomic status (SES) index, overall physical activity, smoking status and alcohol abuse. The risk of breast or lung cancer was lower in the average (3-5 points) and high (6-8 points) levels of the 'Polish-aMED' score compared to the low (0-2 points) level by 51% (odds ratio (OR): 0.49; 95% confidence interval (Cl): 0.30-0.80; p < 0.01; adjusted) and 63% (OR: 0.37; 95% Cl: 0.21-0.64; p < 0.001; adjusted), respectively. In the middle and upper tertiles compared to the bottom tertile of the 'Prudent' DP, the risk of cancer was lower by 38-43% (crude) but was not significant after adjustment for confounders. In the upper compared to the bottom tertile of the 'Non-healthy' DP, the risk of cancer was higher by 65% (OR: 1.65; 95% Cl: 1.05-2.59; p < 0.05; adjusted). In conclusion, the Polish adaptation of the Mediterranean diet could be considered for adults living in non-Mediterranean countries for the prevention of the breast or lung cancers. Future studies should explore the role of a traditional Mediterranean diet fitted to local dietary patterns of non-Mediterranean Europeans in cancer prevention.

Project description:BackgroundType D personality has been associated with a variety of emotional and social difficulties as well as with poor prognosis in patients with established coronary heart disease (CHD). We examined the psychometric properties and validity of the Type D Scale-14 (DS14) and the prevalence of Type D personality among Greek patients with CHD while taking into account demographic; clinical, such as diabetes mellitus, hypertension, and hypercholesterolemia; as well as psychological variables such as depression, anxiety, and psychological stress.MethodsNinety-six patients with stable coronary heart disease and 80 healthy participants from the general population completed the Greek version of the DS14 and the Hospital Anxiety and Depression Scale (HADS).ResultsCronbach's α coefficient for the negative affectivity (NA) and social inhibition (SI) subscales was 0.83 and 0.72 for the CHD and 0.88 and 0.76 for the control group, respectively. Internal-structural validity was assessed by a factor analysis (two-factor solution), and the factor structure of the original DS14 was replicated. Using the standardized cutoff point of NA ≥10 and SI ≥10, instead of the median scores, in order to have compatible results with the majority of studies, the prevalence of Type D personality was 51% for the CHD patients and 13% for the control group. Higher NA and SI were connected with higher anxiety, depression, and total psychological stress. Finally, more patients with CHD and Type D personality than those without were diagnosed with type 2 diabetes; however, no differences were observed in hypertension or hypercholesterolemia.ConclusionsThese results indicate that the Type D construct is reliable and valid in a Greek population. The prevalence of Type D personality was higher in patients with stable coronary heart disease than in people from the general population. The DS14 subscales were positively correlated with higher anxiety, depression, and total psychological stress. Regarding other CHD risk factors, only diabetes mellitus was found more frequently in CHD patients with Type D personality.

Project description:Background: Coronary artery disease (CAD) is one of the main fatal diseases all over the world. CAD is a complex disease, which has multiple risk factors mechanisms. In recent years, genome-wide association study (GWAS) had revealed single nucleotide polymorphism genes (SNPs) which were closely related with CAD risks. The relationship between long non-coding RNA (lncRNA) MALAT1 (metastasis-associated lung adenocarcinoma transcript 1) and CAD risk is largely unknown. To our knowledge, this is the first study which demonstrated the interaction effects of SNP-SNP and SNP-environment with CAD risk. In general, our case-control study is to detect the association between MALAT1 (rs619586, rs4102217) SNPs and CAD risk. Methods: Three hundred and sixty-five CAD patients and three hundred and eighty-four matched control participants blood samples were collected in Liaoning province, China. Two polymorphisms (rs619586, rs4102217) in lncRNA MALAT1 were genotyped by KASP platform. Results: In a stratified analysis, we found that non-drinkers with GC genotype and the recessive model of rs4102217 had higher CAD risk (P=0.010, odds ratio (OR): 1.96, 95% confidence interval (CI) = 1.17-3.28; P=0.026, OR: 1.73, 95% CI = 1.07-2.79) and diabetes mellitus (DM) history group (P=0.010, OR: 4.07, 95% CI = 1.41-11.81; P=0.019, OR: 3.29, 95% CI = 1.22-8.88). In SNP-SNP interactions analysis between MALAT1 and CAD risk, we found rs4102217 had an increase in smokers (GG: OR: 2.04, 95% CI = 1.42-2.92; CC+GC: OR: 2.64, 95% CI = 1.64-4.26) and a decrease in drinkers (CC+GC: OR: 0.33, 95% CI = 0.20-0.55). Smokers with MALAT1 rs619586 AA genotype (OR: 2.20, 95% CI = 1.57-3.07) and GG+AG genotype (OR: 2.11, 95% CI = 1.17-3.81) had a higher risk of CAD. Moreover, drinkers with AA genotype (OR: 0.22, 95% CI = 0.10-0.48) and GG+AG genotype (OR: 0.38, 95% CI = 0.22-0.65) had a lower risk of CAD. According to the MDR software, MALAT1 rs4102217 polymorphism-smoking-drinking was the best interaction model, which has higher risk of CAD (Testing Bal.ACC. = 0.6979). Conclusion: Our study demonstrated that the GC genotype and the recessive model of rs4102217 potentially increased CAD risk in some specific group.
