Background and aimsThe joint effect of famine exposure and adulthood obesity on risk of dyslipidemia remains unclear. Thus, we aim to explore the joint effect of famine exposure and adulthood obesity on the risk of dyslipidemia, and the potential effect of adult general or abdominal obesity on the association between famine exposure and dyslipidemia.Methods and resultsWe conducted a community-based cohort study in 8880 subjects aged 40 years or older. Participants were divided into nonexposed, fetal-exposed, childhood-exposed, adolescent-exposed according to birth date. General obesity and abdominal obesity were defined according to body mass index (BMI: overweight≥24.0 kg/m2, obesity≥28.0 kg/m2) and waist-to-hip ratio (WHR, men/women: moderate≥0.90/0.85, high≥0.95/0.90). Dyslipidemia was defined using the National Cholesterol Education Program Adult Treatment Panel III criteria. Compared with nonexposed participants, fetal-exposed individuals had significantly increased risk of dyslipidemia (OR:1.24, 95%CI: 1.03–1.50) in the whole study. Significant increased risk of dyslipidemia related to famine exposure was observed in women [ORs (95%CIs) were 1.36 (1.05–1.76) and 1.70 (1.22–2.37) for the fetal and childhood-exposed group, respectively] but not in men. Moreover, both general and central obesity had significant multiplicative interactions with famine exposure for the risk of dyslipidemia (P for interaction = 0.0001 and < 0.0001, respectively). Significant additive interaction was found between famine exposure and WHR on risk of dyslipidemia in women, with the relative excess risk due to interaction (RERI) and 95% CI of 0.43 (0.10–0.76).ConclusionCoexistence of early-life undernutrition and adulthood obesity was associated with a higher risk of dyslipidemia in later life.  相似文献

Background and aimsObstructive sleep apnea (OSA) is closely linked to obesity and related adverse metabolic changes, including dyslipidemia. However, it is not clear whether OSA is an independent contributing factor to dyslipidemia, or the observed association is a reflection of a concomitant presence of obesity. Additionally, dyslipidemia is usually evaluated through measurement of parameters of routine lipid status, while more precise evaluation of lipid homeostasis is rarely performed in OSA. In this study, we analyzed markers of cholesterol synthesis and absorption in patients with OSA with respect to the presence of obesity and the disease severity.Methods and resultsThis study enrolled 116 OSA patients. Concentrations of non-cholesterol sterols (NCS), measured by LC-MS/MS, were used as markers of cholesterol synthesis and absorption. Apnea-hypopnea index (AHI) and oxygen saturation (SaO2) were utilized as markers of OSA severity. Serum lipid status parameters were determined by routine enzymatic methods. Markers of cholesterol synthesis were increased (P = 0.005), whilst markers of cholesterol absorption decreased (P = 0.001) in obese OSA patients. Cholesterol synthesis/absorption ratio was elevated in obese subjects (P < 0.001). Concentration of cholesterol synthesis marker lathosterol was significantly higher in subjects with severe OSA (P = 0.014) and we observed a trend of decreased cholesterol absorption in these patients. AHI was revealed as an independent determinant of lathosterol concentration (P = 0.022).ConclusionsOur results suggest that the presence of obesity and severe forms of OSA is characterized by elevated endogenous cholesterol synthesis. AHI was singled out as an independent determinant of the serum level of cholesterol synthesis marker lathosterol.  相似文献

Background and aimsSevere acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) is the sole causative agent of coronavirus infectious disease-19 (COVID-19).Methods and resultsWe performed a retrospective single-center study of consecutively admitted patients between March 1st and May 15th, 2020, with a definitive diagnosis of SARS-CoV-2 infection. The primary end-point was to evaluate the association of lipid markers with 30-days all-cause mortality in COVID-19.A total of 654 patients were enrolled, with an estimated 30-day mortality of 22.8% (149 patients). Non-survivors had lower total cholesterol (TC) and low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-c) levels during the entire course of the disease. Both showed a significant inverse correlation with inflammatory markers and a positive correlation with lymphocyte count. In a multivariate analysis, LDL-c ≤ 69 mg/dl (hazard ratio [HR] 1.94; 95% confidence interval [CI] 1.14–3.31), C-reactive protein >88 mg/dl (HR 2.44; 95% CI, 1.41–4.23) and lymphopenia <1000 (HR 2.68; 95% CI, 1.91–3.78) at admission were independently associated with 30-day mortality. This association was maintained 7 days after admission. Survivors presented with complete normalization of their lipid profiles on short-term follow-up.ConclusionHypolipidemia in SARS-CoV-2 infection may be secondary to an immune-inflammatory response, with complete recovery in survivors. Low LDL-c serum levels are independently associated with higher 30-day mortality in COVID-19 patients.  相似文献

AimsThe ratio of triglyceride (TG) to high-density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL-C) has been regarded as a novel surrogate indicator of insulin resistance and the atherogenic index of plasma. This meta-analysis aimed to evaluate the association between the TG/HDL-C ratio and the incidence of cardiovascular events in the general population.Data synthesisCohort studies reporting the association between the TG/HDL-C ratio and cardiovascular events in the general population were obtained by a systematic literature search of PubMed, Embase and Web of Science databases until April 11, 2021. 13 cohort studies with a total of 207,515 participants were included in this meta-analysis. In a random-effects model, compared with those with the lowest category of the TG/HDL-C ratio, participants with the highest category were independently associated with a higher risk of cardiovascular events (pooled HR: 1.43, 95%CI: 1.26–1.62, I2 = 72.9%). For the presence of publication bias detected by the Egger's test (p = 0.011), correction for publication bias using the trim-and-fill method reduced the HR to 1.26 (95%CI: 1.11–1.44). This result was consistent with the finding of the TG/HDL-C ratio analyzed as a continuous variable (pooled HR per unit increment of the TG/HDL-C ratio: 1.08, 95%CI: 1.04–1.12, I2 = 67.0%). Subgroup analyses indicated that population gender, geographical region, duration of follow-up, adjustment for other lipid parameters, adjustment for diabetes and categorical number did not significantly vary the relationship.ConclusionElevated TG/HDL-C ratio may be independently associated with an increased risk of cardiovascular events in the general population. More well-designed studies are needed to confirm the current findings.Registration number in PROSPEROCRD42021244583.  相似文献

Background and aimsManagement of dyslipidemia remains the cornerstone for prevention of cardiovascular diseases. We aimed to evaluate the epidemiology of dyslipidemia in northeast China.Methods and resultsThis cross-sectional survey was administered on 18,796 participants aged ≥40 years from September 2017 to March 2019 through a multistage, stratified, and cluster random sampling method. Lipid profiles were proposed by National Cholesterol Education Program Adult Treatment Panel III. The crude prevalence of dyslipidemia was 35.8%, higher in urban and women than their counterparts (49.5% vs 30.2%, 37.6% vs 33.0%, p < 0.001). The age-standardized prevalence of dyslipidemia was 34.0% (urban 47.9%, and rural 28.9%; men 36.2%, and women 33.4%). The prevalence of high total cholesterol (TC), high triglyceride (TG), high low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C) and low high-density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL-C) were 14.2%, 17.7%, 5.7% and 11.4% respectively. Noticeably, the prevalence of high LDL-C and low HDL-C in urban areas showed a 2.2-fold and 6.3-fold increase over the rural areas (9.3% vs 4.2% and 28.4% vs 4.5%, respectively). Among participants with dyslipidemia, 14.7% were aware of their condition; 5.9% were taking lipid-regulating medications; and only 2.9% had their dyslipidemia controlled. Comorbidities including hypertension (63.6%), and diabetes (25.2%) were highly prevalent in patients with dyslipidemia, however, the control rates of those comorbidities were only 40.0% and 6.6%.ConclusionsPatients with dyslipidemia showed high cardiovascular burden with low control rates of dyslipidemia, high prevalence of coexisting risk factors. Therefore, region- and sex-specific strategies to manage dyslipidemia and related risk factors should be highlighted.  相似文献

Background and aimsUric acid (UA) and high-density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL-C) are positively and negatively associated with atherosclerosis, respectively. UA and HDL-C are involved in the balance of proinflammatory and anti-inflammatory processes in atherosclerosis. However, it is still unclear whether UA affects the effect of HDL-C on atherosclerosis.Methods and resultsIn this retrospective study, we enrolled 1437 patients with multiple risk factors for atherosclerosis. Patients were categorized into two groups according to their baseline UA level. Multivariate logistic regression analysis and restricted cubic spline curves were used to assess the relationship between HDL-C and carotid atherosclerosis (abnormal carotid intima–media thickness [cIMT] and carotid artery plaque) at different UA levels. Compared to patients with normouricemia, patients with hyperuricemia were older and had a more extensive history of disease and unhealthy behavior. In the normouricemia group, multivariate-adjusted odds ratios (95% CIs) for HDL-C were 0.55 (0.33–0.92) for abnormal mean cIMT, 0.59 (0.35–1.00) for abnormal maximum cIMT, and 0.53 (0.29–0.94) for the occurrence of carotid artery plaque, while the correlation between each of these three indicators with HDL-C were not significant in those with hyperuricemia. Spline regression models yielded similar results. The effect of UA on the association between HDL-C and carotid atherosclerosis remained in the subset of patients with optimal low-density lipoprotein cholesterol.ConclusionElevated UA marks a pre-inflammatory state and impacts the role of HDL-C on carotid atherosclerosis.  相似文献

ObjectivesThis study sought to evaluate the association and burden of coronary artery calcium (CAC) with long-term, cause-specific mortality across the spectrum of baseline risk.BackgroundAlthough CAC is a known predictor of short-term, all-cause mortality, data on long-term and cause-specific mortality are inadequate.MethodsThe CAC Consortium cohort is a multicenter cohort of 66,636 participants without coronary heart disease (CHD) who underwent CAC testing. The following risk factors (RFs) were considered: 1) current cigarette smoking; 2) dyslipidemia; 3) diabetes mellitus; 4) hypertension; and 5) family history of CHD.ResultsDuring the 12.5-years median follow-up, 3,158 (4.7%) deaths occurred; 32% were cardiovascular disease (CVD) deaths. Participants with CAC scores ≥400 had a significantly increased risk for CHD and CVD mortality (hazard ratio [HR]: 5.44; 95% confidence interval [CI]: 3.88 to 7.62; and HR: 4.15; 95% CI: 3.29 to 5.22, respectively) compared with CAC of 0. Participants with ≥3 RFs had a smaller increased risk for CHD and CVD mortality (HR: 2.09; 95% CI: 1.52 to 2.85; and HR: 1.84; 95% CI: 1.46 to 2.31, respectively) compared with those without RFs. Across RF strata, CAC added prognostic information. For example, participants without RFs but with CAC ≥400 had significantly higher all-cause, non-CVD, CVD, and CHD mortality rates compared with participants with ≥3 RFs and CAC of 0.ConclusionsAcross the spectrum of RF burden, a higher CAC score was strongly associated with long-term, all-cause mortality and a greater proportion of deaths due to CVD and CHD. Absence of CAC identified people with a low risk over 12 years of follow-up, with most deaths being non-CVD in nature, regardless of RF burden.  相似文献

Background and aimTo evaluate the association of Glycemic Load (GL) with glucose metabolism and blood lipids among young adults.Methods and resultsThis study included 1538 participants (51% females), evaluated at 21 years of age as part of the EPITeen cohort. The GL of each individual was obtained from the assessment of their dietary intake by using a 86-item semi-quantitative food frequency questionnaire. The evaluation included anthropometric measurements and a fasting blood sample was used to measure glucose, insulin, triglycerides, total cholesterol, high-density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL-C) and low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C). Insulin resistance was calculated based on the homeostasis model method (HOMA-IR). The association between the GL and the biochemical parameters was evaluated by linear regression models using β and 95% confidence intervals (95% CI), stratified by sex and adjusted for body mass index (BMI), energy and fiber intake, and self-perceived social class. No association was found between GL and the glucose metabolism parameters after adjustment. Regarding blood lipids, a positive association was found with LDL-C (β = 1.507, 95% CI 0.454; 2.561 for females; β = 0.216, 95% CI -0.587; 1.020 for males) and a negative association with HDL-C (β = ?0.647, 95% CI -1.112; ?0.181 for females; β = ?0.131, 95% CI -0.422; 0.160 for males).ConclusionsOur results suggest that, in healthy young subjects, a high GL diet may have a negative impact on lipid profile.  相似文献

Background and aimTo determine trends in lipid profiles and lipid control in US adults with diabetes and assess variation in these trends across sex and race/ethnicity from 2007 to 2018.Methods and resultsSerial cross-sectional analysis of data from diabetic adults participating in the National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (NHANES; 2007–2008 to 2017–2018). Among the 6116 participants included (weighted mean age, 61.0 years; 50.7% men), age-adjusted TC (p for trend < 0.001), LDL-C (p for trend < 0.001), TG (p for trend = 0.006), TG/HDL-C (p for trend = 0.014) and VLDL-C (p for trend = 0.015) decreased significantly. Age-adjusted LDL-C levels were consistently higher in women than in men over the study period. Age-adjusted LDL-C improved significantly for diabetic whites and blacks but did not change significantly for the other races/ethnicity. Lipid parameters improved for non-coronary heart disease (CHD) diabetic adults, except for HDL-C, while no lipid parameter significantly changed for diabetic adults with concomitant CHD. Among diabetic adults receiving statin therapy, age-adjusted lipid control remained unchanged from 2007 to 2018, as did adults with concomitant CHD. However, age-adjusted lipid control improved significantly for men (p for trend < 0.01) and diabetic Mexican Americans (p for trend < 0.01). In 2015–2018, female diabetic participants receiving statins had lower odds of achieving lipid control (OR: 0.55; 95% CI: 0.35–0.84; P = 0.006) than men. Differences in lipid control across different races/ethnicities no longer existed.ConclusionsLipid profiles improved in the US adults with diabetes from 2007 to 2018. Although rates of lipid control did not improve nationally in adults receiving statins, these patterns varied by sex and race/ethnicity.  相似文献

Background and aimsParaoxonase 1 (PON1) is considered to play a crucial role as an anti-atherosclerotic factor. The PON1 activity is affected by genetic polymorphisms, environmental factors, age, sex, lifestyle, pharmaceutical drugs, and dietary factors. The aim of this study was to evaluate the association between macro- and micronutrients as well as PON1 concentration and activities in patients with cardiovascular diseases (CVD), cardiovascular risk factors but no CVD (CRF), and in healthy controls (control group).Methods and resultsA case-control study was carried out with 356 volunteers from the Mexican Institute of Social Security, Mexico. Clinical parameters, lipid profile, PON1 activities (AREase, LACase, CMPAase and PONase), and PON1 concentration were evaluated. There was a differential intake of macro- and micronutrients among the study groups. The intake of proteins and carbohydrates was higher in the CVD group than in the CFR and control groups (p < 0.05). AREase, LACase, and CMPAase activities and PON1 concentration were lowest in the CVD group.ConclusionLACase and CMPAase activities, as well as PON1 concentration, could be included in the battery of CVD predictive biomarkers in the Mexican population.  相似文献

Background and aimsThe monocyte to high-density lipoprotein cholesterol ratio (MHR) is associated with multiple cardiovascular diseases. However, the role of the MHR in predicting cardiovascular diseases in patients on peritoneal dialysis remains unclear.Methods and resultsEight hundred and eighty incident peritoneal dialysis patients were enrolled from November 1, 2005, to February 28, 2017, and followed until May 31, 2017. Primary outcomes were cardiovascular events. Using the X-tile program, these patients were divided into three groups according to the MHR. Kaplan–Meier method and Cox regressions were used for survival analysis. During a median follow-up period of 26 months (interquartile range: 12–39 months), 139 cardiovascular events were recorded. After multiple adjustment, the high MHR group was associated with a 1.97-fold increase in the cardiovascular events hazard compared to that of the low group in the overall population (hazard ratio: 1.97; 95% CI, 1.19–3.28; P = 0.009). Subgroup analysis demonstrated that the association between the MHR and a higher risk of cardiovascular events was strongest in the subgroup of patients with diabetes (P for interaction = 0.004). In this subgroup, the high MHR group was found to be associated with a higher risk of cardiovascular events compared to the low group (hazard ratio: 7.69; 95% CI, 2.76–21.47).ConclusionThis study suggests that the MHR is independently associated with the risk of cardiovascular events in patients undergoing peritoneal dialysis, and diabetes status can influence the association between the MHR and the risk of cardiovascular events.  相似文献

BackgroundBone scintigraphy is extremely valuable when assessing patients with suspected cardiac amyloidosis (CA), but the clinical significance and associated phenotype of different degrees of cardiac uptake across different types is yet to be defined.ObjectivesThis study sought to define the phenotypes of patients with varying degrees of cardiac uptake on bone scintigraphy, across multiple types of systemic amyloidosis, using extensive characterization comprising biomarkers as well as echocardiographic and cardiac magnetic resonance (CMR) imaging.MethodsA total of 296 patients (117 with immunoglobulin light-chain amyloidosis [AL], 165 with transthyretin amyloidosis [ATTR], 7 with apolipoprotein AI amyloidosis [AApoAI], and 7 with apolipoprotein AIV amyloidosis [AApoAIV]) underwent deep characterization of their cardiac phenotype.ResultsAL patients with grade 0 myocardial radiotracer uptake spanned the spectrum of CMR findings from no CA to characteristic CA, whereas AL patients with grades 1 to 3 always produced characteristic CMR features. In ATTR, the CA burden strongly correlated with myocardial tracer uptake, except in Ser77Tyr. AApoAI presented with grade 0 or 1 and disproportionate right-sided involvement. AApoAIV always presented with grade 0 and characteristic CA. AL grade 1 patients (n = 48; 100%) had characteristic CA, whereas only ATTR grade 1 patients with Ser77Tyr had characteristic CA on CMR (n = 5; 11.4%). After exclusion of Ser77Tyr, AApoAI, and AApoAIV, CMR showing characteristic CA or an extracellular volume of >0.40 in patients with grade 0 to 1 cardiac uptake had a sensitivity and specificity of 100% for AL.ConclusionsThere is a wide variation in cardiac phenotype between different amyloidosis types across different degrees of cardiac uptake. The combination of CMR and bone scintigraphy can help to define the diagnostic differentials and the clinical phenotype in each individual patient.  相似文献

ObjectivesThe aim of this study was to investigate the accuracy of pre–percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) predicted nonhyperemic pressure ratios (NHPRs) with actual post-PCI NHPRs and to assess the efficacy of PCI strategy using pre-PCI NHPR pullback.BackgroundPredicting the functional results of PCI is feasible using pre-PCI longitudinal vessel interrogation with the instantaneous wave-free ratio (iFR), a pressure-based, adenosine-free NHPR. However, the reliability of novel NHPRs (resting full-cycle ratio [RFR] and diastolic pressure ratio [dPR]) for this purpose remains uncertain.MethodsIn this prospective, multicenter, randomized controlled trial, vessels were randomly assigned to receive pre-PCI iFR, RFR, or dPR pullback (50 vessels each). The pre-PCI predicted NHPRs were compared with actual NHPRs after contemporary PCI using intravascular imaging. The number and the total length of treated lesions were compared between NHPR pullback–guided and angiography-guided strategies.ResultsThe predicted NHPRs were strongly correlated with actual NHPRs: iFR, r = 0.83 (95% confidence interval: 0.72 to 0.90; p < 0.001); RFR, r = 0.84 (95% confidence interval: 0.73 to 0.91; p < 0.001), and dPR, r = 0.84 (95% confidence interval: 0.73 to 0.91; p < 0.001). The number and the total length of treated lesions were lower with the NHPR pullback strategy than with the angiography-guided strategy, leading to physiological improvement.ConclusionsPredicting functional PCI results on the basis of pre-procedural RFR and dPR pullbacks yields similar results to iFR. Compared with an angiography-guided strategy, a pullback–guided PCI strategy with any of the 3 NHPRs reduced the number and the total length of treated lesions.

Background and aimsCarbohydrate quality may play a key role in cardiometabolic health and disease risk. This study aimed to assess the dietary carbohydrate quality of the free-living middle-aged and older adults in Singapore, and its association with overall diet quality and cardiometabolic health.Methods and resultsThis cross-sectional study examined the diet and cardiometabolic disease risk indicators of middle-aged and older adults in Singapore (n = 104). Dietary carbohydrate quality was assessed as the pass and fail rate of the population to four measures of carbohydrate quality: (i) dietary fiber recommended daily allowance (RDA), (ii) whole-grain recommendation, (iii) free sugar recommendation, and (iv) carbohydrate metrics. The association between each carbohydrate quality measure and diet quality, as well as cardiometabolic health, was assessed. Except for free sugar recommendation, the carbohydrate quality of the population was found to be poor with a low adherence (20–36%) to three measures. Subjects meeting these measures had generally higher intakes of fiber, protein, and most micronutrients compared with subjects who failed. Meeting different variants of the carbohydrate metrics was associated with 60% lower odds of pre-hypertensive blood pressure (p = 0.037; p = 0.047), and meeting the dietary fiber RDA was associated with lower waist circumference (p = 0.021).ConclusionAn improvement in carbohydrate quality is warranted among free-living middle-aged and older adults in Singapore. Not all measures of carbohydrate quality were equally effective in preserving overall diet quality; the carbohydrate metrics and dietary fiber RDA can be identified as effective measures in relation to cardiometabolic disease risk.Clinical trial registrationhttps://clinicaltrials.gov/Clinical trial registrationNCT03554954, 13 Sept. 2018.  相似文献

AimsThe prevalence of metabolic syndrome (MetS) has been increasing in recent years. Investigation of whether consumption of legumes as a part of healthy diet could reduce the odds of MetS has led to inconsistent conclusions. Here, we performed the first meta-analysis of observational studies to analyze the association between legume consumption and prevalence of MetS.Data synthesisPubMed, EMBASE, and Web of Science databases were searched to identify observational studies up to June 1, 2019. We extracted data from the studies included and performed quality assessments. Summary odds ratios (ORs) with 95% confidence intervals (CIs) were calculated using a random-effects model. Publication bias and subgroup and sensitivity analyses were also performed. We finally included four cross-sectional studies, two cohort studies, and one case–control study involving 56,028 participants. The summary OR revealed no statistically significant association between legume consumption and odds of MetS (OR = 0.93, 95% CI = 0.76–1.12, I2 = 73.5%). Subgroup analysis of study characteristics and adjustment for confounding along with sensitivity analyses revealed no statistically significant differences. No evidence of publication bias was detected.ConclusionLegume consumption is not associated with the odds of MetS. These findings require validation in well-designed cohort studies and randomized clinical trials with accurate measurement of legume intake and strict control of confounders.RegistrationThis study was registered with the International Prospective Register of Systematic Reviews (registration number: CRD42019131777).  相似文献

BackgroundThe relations of hypertension onset age with cardiovascular diseases (CVD) and all-cause mortality remain inconclusive.ObjectivesThis study sought to examine the associations of hypertension onset age with CVD and all-cause mortality.MethodsThis prospective study included 71,245 participants free of hypertension and CVD in the first survey (July 2006 to October 2007) of the Kailuan study, a prospective cohort study in Tangshan, China. All participants were followed biennially until December 31, 2017. A total of 20,221 new-onset hypertension cases were identified during follow-up. We randomly selected 1 control participant for each new-onset hypertensive participant, matching for age (±1 year) and sex, and included 19,887 case-control pairs. We used weighted Cox regression models to calculate the average hazard ratios of incident CVD and all-cause mortality across the age groups.ResultsDuring an average follow-up of 6.5 years, we identified 1,672 incident CVD cases and 2,008 deaths. After multivariate adjustment, with the increase in hypertension onset age, the hazards of outcomes were gradually attenuated. The average hazard ratio (95% confidence interval) of CVD and all-cause mortality were 2.26 (1.19 to 4.30) and 2.59 (1.32 to 5.07) for the hypertension onset age <45 years old group, 1.62 (1.24 to 2.12) and 2.12 (1.55 to 2.90) for the 45- to 54-year age group, 1.42 (1.12 to 1.79) and 1.30 (1.03 to 1.62) for the 55- to 64-year age group, and 1.33 (1.04 to 1.69) and 1.29 (1.11 to 1.51) for the ≥65-year age group, respectively (p for interaction = 0.38 for CVD and <0.01 for death).ConclusionsHypertension was associated with a higher risk for CVD and all-cause mortality, and the associations were stronger with a younger age of onset.  相似文献

Background & aimsThis study aimed to investigate whether neck circumference (NC) could be used to predict future cardiovascular (CV) events in a community-based Chinese cohort.Methods and resultsWe enrolled 1435 participants aged 50–80 years (men, 43.62%) from communities in Shanghai. High NC was defined as NC ≥ 38.5 cm in men and NC ≥ 34.5 cm in women. Kaplan-Meier analysis and Cox proportional hazards regression were performed to explore the association between NC and CV events. During a mean follow-up period of 7.6 years, 148 CV events (10.31%) occurred. The incidence of CV events was higher in men than in women (83 (13.26%) vs. 65 (8.03%), P = 0.002). Multivariable-adjusted Cox regression analysis showed that for every 1-SD increase in NC in the whole population, the hazard ratio (HR) of CV events was 1.45 (95% confidence interval [CI], 1.15–1.83). The dose-response association between NC and CV events was significant in men (HR, 1.37, 95% CI, 1.10–1.71) but not in women (HR, 1.19, 95% CI, 0.94–1.52). In comparison with participants showing low baseline NC, those with high baseline NC showed a significantly higher risk of CV events (HR, 1.59, 95% CI, 1.14–2.22). Further stratified by sex, the positive association remained significant in men (HR, 1.90, 95% CI, 1.21–2.98) but not in women (HR, 1.25, 95% CI, 0.75–2.07).ConclusionNC was significantly associated with the risk of future CV events in middle-aged and elderly populations in the community and was a better predictor in men.  相似文献
