Haptoglobin genotype is a consistent marker of coronary heart disease risk among individuals with elevated glycosylated hemoglobin.

ABSTRACT: This study sought to investigate into the biologically plausible interaction between the common haptoglobin (Hp) polymorphism rs#72294371 and glycosylated hemoglobin (HbA(1c)) on risk of coronary heart disease (CHD).Studies of the association between the Hp polymorphism and CHD report inconsistent results. Individuals with the Hp2-2 genotype produce Hp proteins with an impaired ability to prevent oxidative injury caused by elevated HbA(1c).HbA(1c) concentration and Hp genotype were determined for 407 CHD cases matched 1:1 to controls (from the NHS [Nurses' Health Study]) and in a replication cohort of 2,070 individuals who served as the nontreatment group in the ICARE (Prevention of Cardiovascular Complications in Diabetic Patients With Vitamin E Treatment) study, with 29 CHD events during follow-up. Multivariate models were adjusted for lifestyle and CHD risk factors as appropriate. A pooled analysis was conducted of NHS, ICARE, and the 1 previously published analysis (a cardiovascular disease case-control sample from the Strong Heart Study).In the NHS, Hp2-2 genotype (39% frequency) was strongly related to CHD risk only among individuals with elevated HbA(1c) (? 6.5%), an association that was similar in the ICARE trial and the Strong Heart Study. In a pooled analysis, participants with both the Hp2-2 genotype and elevated HbA(1c) had a relative risk of 7.90 (95% confidence interval: 4.43 to 14.10) for CHD compared with participants with both an Hp1 allele and HbA(1c) <6.5% (p for interaction = 0.004), whereas the Hp2-2 genotype with HbA(1c) <6.5% was not associated with risk (relative risk: 1.34 [95% confidence interval: 0.73 to 2.46]).Hp genotype was a significant predictor of CHD among individuals with elevated HbA(1c).

Project description:Glycosylated hemoglobin (HbA1c) is a critical measure of glycemic control, which may be a reliable predictor of complications after percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI). This systematic review and meta-analysis evaluates the association between HbA1c levels and clinical outcomes in diabetic patients after PCI.Pubmed, Embase, and Cochrane Library databases (dated to December 2015) were screened for relevant studies. Appropriate diabetic cases and controls, assessed using blood HbA1c levels, were extracted, and statistical analysis was conducted using RevMan 5.3 software. Summary odds ratios (ORs) with 95% confidence intervals (CIs) were used to calculate the associations between HbA1c levels and clinical outcomes in diabetic patients after PCI. Ethics review and approval was not necessary because this systematic meta-analysis did not involve any direct human trials or animal experiments.Eight studies that reported HbA1c levels for a total of 3290 diabetic subjects after PCI were included in this meta-analysis. Comprehensive integration and analysis revealed a significant correlation between higher HbA1c levels and the risk of target vessel revascularization progression (OR 1.36, 95% CI 1.03-1.82) and nonfatal myocardial infarction after PCI (OR 2.47, 95% CI 1.38-4.44). However, no significant association was found between HbA1c levels and major adverse cardiovascular events (OR 1.02, 95% CI 0.83-1.27), all-cause mortality (OR 0.73, 95% CI 0.52-1.02), cardiac death (OR 1.12, 95% CI 0.62-2.03), or in-stent thrombosis (OR 0.65, 95% CI 0.23-1.87) among diabetic patients after PCI. Sensitivity analysis indicated a statistically robust result and revealed no publication bias.Our meta-analysis demonstrated that blood HbA1c levels might be associated with higher risks of target vessel revascularization progression and nonfatal myocardial infarction among diabetic patients after PCI. However, further studies with larger sample sizes are required to verify the association.
