The use of circulating biomarkers for heart failure (HF) is engrained in contemporary cardiovascular practice and provides objective information about various pathophysiological pathways associated with HF syndrome. However, biomarker profiles differ considerably among women and men. For instance, in the general population, markers of cardiac stretch (natriuretic peptides) and fibrosis (galectin‐3) are higher in women, whereas markers of cardiac injury (cardiac troponins) and inflammation (sST2) are higher in men. Such differences may reflect sex‐specific pathogenic processes associated with HF risk, but may also arise as a result of differences in sex hormone profiles and fat distribution. From a clinical perspective, sex‐related differences in biomarker levels may affect the objectivity of biomarkers in HF management because what is considered to be ‘normal’ in one sex may not be so in the other. The objectives of this review are, therefore: (i) to examine the sex‐specific dynamics of clinically relevant HF biomarkers in the general population, as well as in HF patients; (ii) to discuss the overlap between sex‐related and obesity‐related effects, and (iii) to identify knowledge gaps to stimulate research on sex‐related differences in HF. 相似文献

Our group has previously reported that excessive vascular access bleeding during dialysis treatment in stable hemodialysis (HD) patients was associated with anemia and may indicate poorer health. The association between excessive blood loss from access cannulation site and clinical outcomes was unknown. We hypothesized that excessive access bleeding may have an impact on all‐cause and cardiovascular (CV) mortality in this population. We prospectively conducted an observational, longitudinal study of 360 HD patients. Excessive access bleeding was defined as at least an occurrence of blood loss greater than 4 mL per HD session during a study period of one month. During a median follow‐up of 83 months, all‐cause mortality and CV mortality were registered. Outcomes were analyzed by Kaplan–Meier and Cox proportional hazards regression analyses. A total of 118 (32.8%) participants died and 54 of these were from CV death. Using a multivariate Cox proportional hazards regression, access bleeding was found to be an independent predictor of all‐cause mortality (HR 1.67, 95% CI 0.96–2.91, P = 0.070) but not for CV death (HR 1.53, 95% CI 0.88–2.68, P = 0.135). Our study identified that excessive access cannulation site bleeding could be a novel marker for increased risk of death in HD patients. 相似文献

Left ventricular (LV) function is impaired in most hemodialysis (HD) patients. We conducted an observational cohort study to investigate whether LV end‐diastolic diameter (LVDd) could predict all‐cause mortality in a cohort of 166 HD patients. The LVDd values (5.06 ± 0.64 cm) of the non‐survivor group were significantly greater than in the survivor group (4.78 ± 0.71 cm). The area under the receiver operating characteristic curve for an LVDd cut‐off value of 5.01 cm was 0.6145 (P = 0.0234). The sensitivity and specificity of the LVDd threshold of 5.01 cm were 75.7% and 50.4%, respectively. The 4‐year survival rate was significantly lower in the group with LVDd ≥ 5.01 cm than in the group with LVDd < 5.01 cm (log‐rank test, P = 0.0047). Multivariate analysis with adjustments for clinical and echocardiographic parameters showed that increased LVDd was an independent predictor of all‐cause mortality (hazard ratio 2.363, 95% CI 1.320–4.228, P = 0.0013). The results of the present study showed that increased LVDd predicts the all‐cause mortality of chronic HD patients better than other echocardiographic parameters. Our findings suggest that LVDd measurements may be helpful for risk stratification and providing therapeutic direction for the management of HD patients. 相似文献

Chronic kidney disease is a risk factor for cardiovascular mortality and morbidity of cardiovascular events (CVEs). We obtained baseline data regarding blood biochemistry, ankle‐brachial index (ABI), brachial‐ankle pulse wave velocity (baPWV) and echocardiographic parameters from 300 patients on hemodialysis in 2005. We also measured ABI and baPWV annually from June 2005 until June 2012 and calculated rates of changes in ABI and baPWV to identify factors associated with CVEs. Seventy‐three patients died of cardiovascular disease and 199 CVEs occurred in 164 patients during the study period. Cardiac, cerebrovascular and peripheral artery disease (PAD) events occurred in 124, 43 and 32 patients, respectively, and 30 patients had more than two types of CVEs. Analysis using the Cox proportional hazards model showed that a higher rate of decline in ABI (hazard ratio [HR], 4.034; P < 0.001) was the most significant risk factor for decreased patient survival. Multivariate Cox analysis revealed that a higher rate of ABI decline (HR, 2.342; P < 0.001) was a significant risk factor for cardiac events, and that a lower baseline ABI was a risk factor for cerebrovascular (HR, 0.793; P = 0.03) and PAD (HR, 0.595; P < 0.0001) events. Our findings suggested that the rate of a decline in ABI and the baseline ABI value are potent correlation factors for survival and CVE morbidity among patients on hemodialysis in Japan. 相似文献

Objective. Advancements in the preoperative management of patients with single‐ventricle physiology continue to evolve. Previous reports have questioned the benefit of using inhaled nitrogen in single‐ventricle patients, suggesting that this therapeutic modality may not provide adequate systemic cardiac output. The objective of this study was to review our institutional experience managing preoperative patients with single‐ventricle physiology using a combination of afterload reduction and inhaled hypoxemic therapy. Design, Setting, and Patients. This is a retrospective review of 49 consecutive single‐ventricle patients admitted preoperatively between July 2004 and January 2009, to the cardiac intensive care unit at Children's Hospital of Pittsburgh who underwent single‐ventricle palliation, and treated preoperatively with milrinone and inhaled nitrogen. Therapeutic interventions and indirect indicators of cardiac output were collected on day of admission (time 0) and compared with those collected on the morning of surgery (time 1); data included clinical assessment, hemodynamic measurements, and laboratory values. Results. When comparing time 0 to time 1, there was a statistically significant decrease in lactate (from 2.2 to 1.8 mEq/L [P < 0.001]) and an increase in pH (from 7.36 to 7.41 [P < 0.001]), serum bicarbonate (from 24.16 to 27.55 mmol/L [P < 0.001]) and arterial PaO2 (from 38.10 to 41.82 mm Hg [P= 0.027]). Preoperatively, there were no deaths, and only two patients had an evidence of multiorgan dysfunction on day of surgery (time 1). Conclusion. Our results suggest that a combination of afterload reduction and hypoxemic therapy was able to maintain an appropriate distribution of the cardiac output in the majority of preoperative patients with single‐ventricle physiology. An adequate balance of systemic and pulmonary blood flow was successfully achieved with an increase in arterial Pa02 values. 相似文献

Background: Growing epidemiological evidence indicates that moderate alcohol consumption is associated with reduced total mortality among middle‐aged and older adults. However, the salutary effect of moderate drinking may be overestimated owing to confounding factors. Abstainers may include former problem drinkers with existing health problems and may be atypical compared to drinkers in terms of sociodemographic and social‐behavioral factors. The purpose of this study was to examine the association between alcohol consumption and all‐cause mortality over 20 years among 1,824 older adults, controlling for a wide range of potential confounding factors associated with abstention. Methods: The sample at baseline included 1,824 individuals between the ages of 55 and 65. The database at baseline included information on daily alcohol consumption, sociodemographic factors, former problem drinking status, health factors, and social‐behavioral factors. Abstention was defined as abstaining from alcohol at baseline. Death across a 20‐year follow‐up period was confirmed primarily by death certificate. Results: Controlling only for age and gender, compared to moderate drinkers, abstainers had a more than 2 times increased mortality risk, heavy drinkers had 70% increased risk, and light drinkers had 23% increased risk. A model controlling for former problem drinking status, existing health problems, and key sociodemographic and social‐behavioral factors, as well as for age and gender, substantially reduced the mortality effect for abstainers compared to moderate drinkers. However, even after adjusting for all covariates, abstainers and heavy drinkers continued to show increased mortality risks of 51 and 45%, respectively, compared to moderate drinkers. Conclusions: Findings are consistent with an interpretation that the survival effect for moderate drinking compared to abstention among older adults reflects 2 processes. First, the effect of confounding factors associated with alcohol abstention is considerable. However, even after taking account of traditional and nontraditional covariates, moderate alcohol consumption continued to show a beneficial effect in predicting mortality risk. 相似文献

Red Blood Cell Distribution Width Is Associated With All‐Cause and Cardiovascular Mortality in Hemodialysis Patients 下载免费PDF全文

Red blood cell distribution width (RDW) is an index of red blood cell variability that is usually used to differentiate the cause of anemia. However, clinical evidence for the relationship between RDW and mortality in hemodialysis patients is still lacking. We performed a single center, prospective longitudinal study. During more than 5 years of follow‐up in 80 patients undergoing maintenance hemodialysis, 34 patients (42.5%) died. In the Kaplan–Meier curve analyses, higher RDW levels (≥ 14.9%) were significantly associated with all‐cause and cardiovascular mortality (log‐rank test, P < 0.05, each). In multivariate Cox proportional hazard models, each 1.0% increase in RDW value predicted an estimated 25% higher risk of mortality (P < 0.05) and a 40% higher risk of cardiovascular mortality (P < 0.05). In conclusion, higher RDW value was a significant predictor for all‐cause and cardiovascular mortality in patients undergoing maintenance hemodialysis. 相似文献

The prevalence of atherosclerotic diseases is higher in hemodialysis patients. The aim of the current study was to investigate associations between cholesterol level and the incidences of cardiovascular disease (CVD) and mortality in hemodialysis patients. A total of 3517 participants undergoing maintenance hemodialysis were followed up for 10 years. Total cholesterol (TC) level was divided into quartile in baseline data. The multivariate analyses were calculated by a Cox proportional hazards model. The incidences of ischemic heart disease (IHD), peripheral artery disease (PAD), and CVD were significantly positively associated with higher cholesterol levels after adjustment for confounding factors (P < 0.01, P = 0.04, and P < 0.01, respectively). Furthermore, the incidences of cancer‐associated mortality and all‐cause mortality were significantly positively associated with lower cholesterol levels after adjustment for confounding factors (both P < 0.01). The lowest TC level at all‐cause mortality risk was 179 mg/dL. From these results, higher TC predicts IHD, PAD, and CVD events, and lower TC predicts cancer‐associated mortality and all‐cause mortality in patients undergoing maintenance hemodialysis. 相似文献
