Contrasting Associations of Body Mass Index and Hemoglobin A1c on the Excess Risk of Acute Myocardial Infarction and Heart Failure in Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus.

ABSTRACT: Background Body mass index (BMI) may be a stronger risk factor for heart failure than for coronary heart disease in type 2 diabetes mellitus, but prior studies have not been powered to investigate the relative and absolute risks for acute myocardial infarction and heart failure in type 2 diabetes mellitus by BMI and glycemic level combined as compared with age- and sex-matched general population comparators. Methods and Results We identified 181 045 patients from The Swedish National Diabetes Registry, registered during 1998 to 2012 and 1538 434 general population comparators without diabetes mellitus, matched for age, sex, and county, all without prior major cardiovascular disease. Cases and comparators were followed with respect to the outcomes through linkage to the Swedish Inpatient Registry. Over a median follow-up time of 5.7 years, there were 28 855 acute myocardial infarction and 33 060 heart failure cases among patients and comparators. Excess risk (above that of comparators in whom no data on hemoglobin A1c and BMI was available), incidence rates and hazard ratios for heart failure were substantially higher among the obese patients compared with those with low BMI, where very obese patients (BMI ?40 kg/m²) who also had poor glycemic control, suffered a 7-fold risk of heart failure versus comparators (reference level). By contrast, for acute myocardial infarction, the highest absolute and relative risks were found among patients with poor glycemic control, with no additional risk conferred by increasing BMI. Conclusions BMI is a strong independent risk factor for heart failure but not for acute myocardial infarction among patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus.

Project description:AIMS:Sarcolipin (SLN) is a key regulator of sarcoplasmic reticulum calcium-ATPase (SERCA)2a, which handles intracellular calcium re-uptake. This study was aimed to investigate the involvement of SLN in post-myocardial infarction (MI) heart failure (HF) in diabetes. METHODS AND RESULTS:Diabetes/MI rat models were established. Altered SLN expression in diabetic hearts was screened out by microarray. A myocardiotropic viral vector was used to deliver siRNA to silence SLN. DNA methylation was evaluated by bisulfite sequencing. Cardiac functions were evaluated by invasive haemodynamic examinations. The SERCA2a activity, cytoplasmic calcium concentration ([Ca2+ ]i ), calcium spark, and myocyte contraction were detected. Correlation between HF and diabetes was analysed in a cohort consisted of 101 ST-segment elevated myocardial infarction (STEMI) patients between 2017 and 2019 [53.54 ± 4.64 years old; 61.4% male gender; HbA1c% 6.15 ± 2.00; and left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF%) 40.64 ± 3.20%]. SLN expression was evaluated in left ventricular tissue sample from six STEMI patients complicated with diabetes and six STEMI patients without diabetes. Expressions of DNA methyltransferase 1a and DNA methyltransferase 3 were reduced in diabetic hearts, leading to down-regulation of SLN promoter methylation, resulting in increased SLN expression in rats. Impaired heart systolic functions were found in experimental diabetic MI rats, which were attenuated by SLN silencing. SERCA2a activity reduction and [Ca2+ ]i elevation were attenuated by SLN silencing in diabetic animal hearts and high-glucose incubated primary myocytes. SLN silencing suppressed calcium sparks and improved contraction and sarcoplasmic reticulum calcium re-uptake in high-glucose incubated primary myocytes. Expression of SLN was up-regulated in LV sampled from STEMI patients complicated with diabetes compared with non-diabetic ones (P < 0.05). LVEF% was reduced in STEMI patients complicated with diabetes compared with non-diabetic ones (P < 0.01). HbA1c% and LVEF% was related (r = -0.218, P = 0.028). Increased HbA1c% was correlated with reduced LVEF% after adjustment for age, sex, body mass index, cigarette smoking, creatinine, UA, low density lipoprotein, K+ , Na+ , and troponin I (adjusted odds ration = 0.75, 95% confidence interval 0.62-0.90, P = 0.002). CONCLUSIONS:Diabetes increases the vulnerability of STEMI patients to post-MI HF by down-regulating SLN promoter methylation, which further regulates SERCA2a activity via increasing cardiac SLN expression.

Project description:BackgroundDiabetes mellitus is a chronic burden, with a prevalence that is increasing worldwide. Telemetric interventions have attracted great interest and may provide effective new therapeutic approaches for improving type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) care.ObjectiveThe objective of this study was to analyze the clinical effectiveness of telemetric interventions on glycated hemoglobin A1c (HbA1c) specifically and T2DM management generally in a systematic meta-review.MethodsA systematic literature search was performed in PubMed, CINAHL, Cochrane Library, Web of Science Core Collection, and EMBASE databases from January 2008 to April 2020. Studies that addressed HbA1c, blood pressure, fasting blood glucose, BMI, diabetes-related and health-related quality of life, cost-effectiveness, time savings, and the clinical effectiveness of telemetric interventions were analyzed. In total, 73 randomized controlled trials (RCTs), 10 systematic reviews/meta-analyses, 9 qualitative studies, 2 cohort studies, 2 nonrandomized controlled studies, 2 observational studies, and 1 noncontrolled intervention study were analyzed.ResultsOverall, 1647 citations were identified. After careful screening, 99 studies (n=15,939 patients; n=82,436 patient cases) were selected by two independent reviewers for inclusion in the review. Telemetric interventions were categorized according to communication channels to health care providers: (1) "real-time video" interventions, (2) "real-time audio" interventions, (3) "asynchronous" interventions, and (4) "combined" interventions. To analyze changes in HbA1c, suitable RCTs were pooled and the average was determined. An HbA1c decrease of -1.15% (95% CI -1.84% to -0.45%), yielding an HbA1c value of 6.95% (SD 0.495), was shown in studies using 6-month "real-time video" interventions.ConclusionsTelemetric interventions clearly improve HbA1c values in both the short term and the long term and contribute to the effective management of T2DM. More studies need to be done in greater detail.
