Project description:ObjectiveThis study aims to sheds light on the correlation between urinary cadmium (Cd-U) exposure and coronary heart disease (CHD) and the mediating effects of serum alkaline phosphatase (ALP) based on a sample of adults in the United States.MethodsA comprehensive cross-sectional study was performed on 8,998 CHD participants who participated in the National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (NHANES) from 2009 to 2018. Weighted logistic regression was employed to elucidate the association between Cd-U and the likelihood of CHD. We investigated the link of Cd-U exposure to the prevalence of CHD using limited cubic spline models to analyze the exposure-dose relationship. In addition, mediation analyses were conducted to explore the role of serum ALP in metal exposure-induced CHD.Results8,998 participants were included, and 323 among them were diagnosed with CHD. Our study found that elevated levels of Cd-U in U.S. are linked to a heightened likelihood of CHD. Additionally, there is a non-linear positive correlation between Cd-U and CHD, and a saturation effect was observed. Further mediation analysis revealed that the association between Cd-U and CHD prevalence was mediated through serum ALP mellitus, with the mediation percentage being 2.5% (P value <0.05).ConclusionsOur study indicates a strong association between the levels of Cd-U exposure in urine and the likelihood of CHD, with serum ALP serving as a mediator.

Project description:Epidemiological studies have established that noise from transportation sources exceeding the safe limits elevates the risk for cardiovascular diseases. The results however have remained heterogeneous. The present study was conducted to investigate the association between road traffic noise exposure and prevalence of coronary artery disease besides sub-group analysis was performed for identifying the most susceptible population. Traffic noise exposure was measured using the Lden metric in both continuous and categorical forms. A cross-sectional study was performed and information about sociodemographic, lifestyle, and health-related factors was collected. Noise level < 60 dB(A) representing the quiet areas was used as the reference group. Univariate and multivariate logistic regressions were performed to estimate the odds for self-reported coronary artery disease concerning road traffic noise after adjusting for confounding variables. The residents living in noisy areas were found to have a 2.25 times higher risk per 5 dB(A) increment in the noise levels (95% CI = 1.38 to 3.67). Males were at a higher risk of CAD (OR = 2.61; 95% CI = 1.84 to 3.72) as compared to females (OR = 2.07; 95% CI = 1.37-3.13). The subgroup analysis revealed that being sensitive to noise, belonging to a higher age group, reporting higher stress levels, and poor sleep quality were associated with higher risk. The study also provides evidence that exposure to noise levels greater than 60 dB(A) is associated with the prevalence of coronary artery disease in adults.

Project description:BackgroundInsulin resistance (IR) is associated with coronary artery disease (CAD) severity. However, its underlying mechanisms are not fully understood. Therefore, our study aimed to explore the relationship between IR and coronary inflammation and investigate the synergistic and mediating effects of coronary inflammation on the association between IR and CAD severity.MethodsConsecutive patients with CAD who underwent coronary angiography and coronary computed tomography angiography between April 2018 and March 2023 were enrolled. The triglyceride-glucose index (TyG index) and peri-coronary adipose tissue (PCAT) attenuation around the proximal right coronary artery (RCA) were used to evaluate IR and coronary inflammation, respectively. The correlation between the TyG index and PCAT attenuation was analyzed using linear regression models. Logistic regression models were further used for investigating the correlation of the TyG index and PCAT attenuation with CAD severity. A mediation analysis assessed the correlation between IR and CAD severity mediated by coronary inflammation.ResultsA total of 569 participants (mean age, 62 ± 11 years; 67.8% men) were included in the study. PCAT attenuation was positively associated with the TyG index (r = 0.166; P < 0.001). After adjusting for potential confounders, the per standard deviation increment in the TyG index was associated with a 1.791 Hounsfield unit (HU) increase (95% confidence interval [CI], 0.920-2.662 HU; P < 0.001) in the PCAT attenuation. In total, 382 (67.1%) patients had multivessel CAD. The patients in the high-TyG index/high PCAT attenuation group had approximately 3.2 times the odds of multivessel CAD compared with those in the low-TyG index/low PCAT attenuation group (odds ratio, 3.199; 95%CI, 1.826-5.607; P < 0.001). Mediation analysis indicated that PCAT attenuation mediated 31.66% of the correlation between the TyG index and multivessel CAD.ConclusionsThe TyG index positively correlated with PCAT attenuation in patients with CAD. The TyG index and PCAT attenuation showed a synergistic correlation with multivessel CAD. Furthermore, PCAT attenuation partially mediated the relationship between the TyG index and CAD severity. Controlling inflammation in patients with high IR and coronary inflammation may provide additional benefits.

Project description:The human LncRNA microarray analysis of the 6 plasma samples from Coronary Artery Disease patients and non Coronary Artery Disease Agilent Feature Extraction software (version 11.0.1.1) was used to analyze acquired array images. Quantile normalization was performed using Expander6 and subsequent data processing was performed using the GeneSpring GX v11.5.1 software package (Agilent Technologies). After low intensity filtering, LncRNAs and mRNAs that at least 2 out of 12 samples have flags in Present or Marginal (“All Targets Value”) were chosen for quantile normalization and further data analysis. Differentially expressed LncRNAs and mRNAs with statistical significance were identified through Volcano Plot filtering. Pathway analysis and GO analysis were applied to determine the roles of these differentially expressed mRNAs played in these biological pathways or GO terms. Finally, Hierarchical Clustering was performed to show the distinguishable LncRNAs expression pattern among samples.

Project description:ObjectivesTo assess the perceptions of patients with stable coronary artery disease of the urgency and benefits of elective percutaneous coronary intervention and to examine how they vary across centers and by providers.DesignCross sectional study.Setting10 US academic and community hospitals performing percutaneous coronary interventions between 2009 and 2011.Participants991 patients with stable coronary artery disease undergoing elective percutaneous coronary intervention.Main outcome measuresPatients' perceptions of the urgency and benefits of percutaneous coronary intervention, assessed by interview. Multilevel hierarchical logistic regression models examined the variation in patients' understanding across centers and operators after adjusting for patient characteristics, using median odds ratios.ResultsThe most common reported benefits from percutaneous coronary intervention were to extend life (90%, n=892; site range 80-97%) and to prevent future heart attacks (88%, n=872; site range 79-97%). Although nearly two thirds of patients (n=661) reported improvement of symptoms as a benefit of percutaneous coronary intervention (site range 52-87%), only 1% (n=9) identified this as the only benefit. Substantial variability was noted in the ways informed consent was obtained at each site. After adjusting for patient and operator characteristics, the median odds ratios showed significant variation in patients' perceptions of percutaneous coronary intervention across sites (range 1.4-3.1) but not across operators within a site.ConclusionPatients have a poor understanding of the benefits of elective percutaneous coronary intervention, with significant variation across sites. No sites had a high proportion of patients accurately understanding the benefits. Coupled with the wide variability in the ways in which hospitals obtain informed consent, these findings suggest that hospital level interventions into the structure and processes of obtaining informed consent for percutaneous coronary intervention might improve patient comprehension and understanding.

Project description:Previously, we have reported that daily glucose fluctuations could affect coronary plaque vulnerability, but the underlying mechanisms remained unclear. This study sought to investigate the impact of CD14++CD16+ monocytes on plaque vulnerability, as assessed by virtual histology intravascular ultrasound (VH-IVUS), as well as their relationship to fluctuating glucose levels in patients with asymptomatic coronary artery disease (CAD).Fifty-one patients with asymptomatic CAD, who were undergoing lipid-lowering therapy and underwent VH-IVUS evaluation for angiographically mild to moderate lesions, were enrolled in the study. Standard VH-IVUS parameters, including the percentage volume of the necrotic core (%NC) within the plaque and the presence of a virtual histology thin-cap fibroatheroma (VH-TCFA), were then evaluated. Additionally, monocyte subsets were assessed by flow cytometry, and daily glucose fluctuations were analyzed by measuring the mean amplitude of glycemic excursion (MAGE).Among 82 plaques from 22 diabetes mellitus (DM) patients and 29 non-DM patients, 15 VH-TCFAs were identified. CD14++CD16+ monocyte counts significantly correlated with both %NC and the presence of VH-TCFA (%NC: r = 0.339, p = 0.002; VH-TCFA: p = 0.003). Multivariate logistic regression analysis revealed that CD14++CD16+ monocyte counts were independently associated with VH-TCFA (odds ratio = 1.029, p = 0.004). Furthermore, CD14++CD16+ monocyte counts were significantly correlated with the MAGE score in the non-DM patients (r = 0.544, p = 0.005).CD14++CD16+ monocyte levels are associated with coronary plaque vulnerability and can serve as a biomarker for VH-TCFA in patients with CAD undergoing lipid-lowering therapy. In patients without DM, glucose fluctuations may alter the balance of monocyte subsets. Trial registration UMIN Registry number: UMIN000021228.

Project description:BackgroundMicrobiome has been linked to the pathogenesis of coronary artery disease (CAD) but data providing direct evidence for an association of short-chain fatty acids (SCFA) with CAD are lacking. This study aimed to evaluate the role of propionate, the most important SCFA in patients with CAD.MethodsWe performed a cross-sectional study enrolling patients admitted for invasive coronary angiography in two university hospitals in Germany. Patients with known or suspected CAD and risk factors for cardiovascular disease were prospectively recruited. Blood sampling was performed after overnight fasting and before invasive procedures. Measurement of propionate was performed by liquid chromatography.ResultsThe study included 1,253 patients (median [IQR], 67 [58-76] years; 799 men [64%]). A total of 739 had invasively confirmed CAD with at least one coronary artery stenosis ≥50% and 514 had exclusion of CAD. CAD patients had significant lower levels of propionate (median 5.75 μM, IQR, 4.1-7.6) compared to the non-CAD groups 6.53 μM (4.6-8.6, p < 0.001). Multivariate linear regression analysis revealed an odds ratio of 0.94 (CI 0.90-0.98, p = 0.002) for propionate as predictor of CAD. The odds ratio was further decreased to 0.45 (CI 0.31-0.65, p < 0.001) when comparing patients in the lowest quartile of propionate with those with higher levels of propionate.ConclusionThe study provides large-scale in vivo data for the association of propionate to manifest coronary artery disease, independent of other traditional cardiovascular risk factors.
