Influence of sex on the incidence of potential coronary artery disease and long-term outcomes in asymptomatic patients with diabetes mellitus.

ABSTRACT: Background:Diabetic patients often have coronary artery disease (CAD) without symptoms. It is known that females tend to have silent or less chest pain and worse prognoses when they develop acute coronary syndrome. Thus, sex differences may impact long-term outcomes in diabetes mellitus (DM) patients with silent myocardial ischemia (SMI). The present study aimed to assess the influence of sex on long-term outcomes in DM patients with SMI. Methods:A total of 461 consecutive asymptomatic and self-sufficient DM patients seen at our hospital from 2011 to 2017 were prospectively reviewed. Patients underwent an ergometer exercise test. When the exercise test was positive or the patient could not achieve 90% of their target heart rate, coronary angiography was performed. The primary endpoint was major adverse cardiac and cerebrovascular events (MACCEs), including death, non-fatal myocardial infarction, and stroke. Results:SMI was diagnosed in 81 patients. The median follow-up duration from diagnosis was 35 (15-57) months. The incidence of SMI was similar in females and males [34/170 (20%) vs. 47/291 (16.2%), p = 0.36]. Enrolled patients were divided into four groups according to sex and the presence/absence of SMI. Female patients with SMI showed worse clinical outcomes. After adjustment for age and coronary risk factors, female SMI was independently associated with MACCEs [hazard ratio 2.59, 95% confidence interval 1.07-5.68, p = 0.024], while male SMI was not. Conclusions:Female SMI was associated with worse long-term outcomes in DM patients. Early diagnosis of potential SMI and appropriate care are required in female DM patients. (UMIN000038340).

Project description:BackgroundNeutrophil extracellular traps NETs have been linked to glucose and the pathogenesis of type 1 diabetes mellitus (T1DM). NETs also play a role in vascular inflammation and the development of coronary artery disease (CAD). The role of NETs in CAD progression in patients with long-term T1DM is unclear. We aimed to 1) investigate whether levels of circulating NETs markers were elevated in long-term T1DM subjects compared to controls, and 2) explore whether levels of NETs were related to the presence of CAD.Material and methods102 patients with > 45 years of T1DM and 75 age-matched controls were enrolled in a cross-sectional study. Median age was 62 years. Computed tomography coronary angiography (CTCA) was performed in 148 subjects without established coronary heart disease. For the current study, CAD was defined as a coronary artery stenosis >50%. Double-stranded deoxyribonucleic acid (dsDNA) was measured by a nucleic acid stain, myeloperoxidase-DNA (MPO-DNA), citrullinated histone 3 (H3Cit) and peptidylarginine deiminase 4 (PAD4) by ELISAs, while gene expression of PAD4 was measured in leukocytes from PAXgene tubes.ResultsCirculating MPO-DNA levels were significantly lower in patients with T1DM than in controls (0.17 vs 0.29 OD, p<0.001), while dsDNA, H3Cit, PAD4 and gene expression of PAD4 did not differ with respect to the presence of T1DM. There were no significant associations between NETs markers and HbA1c in the T1DM group. None of the NETs markers differed according to the presence of CAD in patients with T1DM. While all circulating NETs markers correlated significantly with circulating neutrophils in the control group (r=0.292-393, p<0.014), only H3Cit and PAD4 correlated with neutrophils in the T1DM group (r= 0.330-0.449, p ≤ 0.001).ConclusionsIn this cross-sectional study of patients with long-term T1DM and age-matched controls, circulating NETs levels were not consistently associated with the presence of T1DM or glycemic status, and did not differ according to the presence of CAD in patients with T1DM. Our results entail the possibility of altered neutrophil function and reduced NETosis in T1DM. This warrants further investigation.

Project description:BackgroundType 2 diabetes mellitus (DM) is a frequent co-morbidity among patients undergoing coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG) surgery. The aim of this study was to evaluate the impact of DM on the early- and long-term outcomes of patients who underwent isolated CABG.MethodsWe performed an observational cohort study in a large tertiary medical center over a period of 11 years. All data from patients who had undergone isolated CABG surgery between 2004 and 2014 were obtained from our departmental database. The study population included 2766 patients who were divided into two groups: Group I (1553 non-diabetic patients), and Group II (1213 patients suffering from type 2 DM). Group II patients were then divided into two subgroups: subgroup IIA (981 patients treated with oral antihyperglycemic medications) and subgroup IIB (232 insulin-treated patients with or without additional oral antihyperglycemic drugs). In-hospital, 1-, 3-, 5- and 10-year mortality outcome variables were evaluated. Mean follow-up was 97?±?41 months.ResultsIn-hospital mortality was similar between Group I and Group II patients (1.87% vs. 2.31%, p?=?0.422) and between the subgroups IIA and IIB (2.14% vs. 3.02%, p?=?0.464). Long-term mortality (1, 3, 5 and 10 years) was higher in Group II (DM type 2) compared with Group I (non-diabetic patients) (5.3% vs. 3.6%, p?=?0.038; 9.3% vs. 5.6%, p?<?0.001; 15.3% vs. 9.3%, p?<?0.001 and 47.3% vs. 29.6% p?<?0.001). Kaplan-Meier analysis demonstrated that all-cause mortality was higher in Group II compared with Group I (p?<?0.001) and in subgroup IIB compared with subgroup IIA (p?=?0.001). Multivariable analysis showed that DM increased the mortality hazard by twofold, and among diabetic patients, insulin treatment increased the mortality hazard by twofold.ConclusionsDiabetic and non-diabetic patients have similar in-hospital mortality rates. Survival rates of diabetic patients start to deteriorate 3 year after surgery. Type 2 DM is an independent predictor for long-term mortality after isolated CABG surgery. Mortality is even higher when the diabetes treatment strategy included insulin.

Project description:To evaluate the impact of screening stress testing for coronary artery disease in asymptomatic patients with diabetes in a community-based population.This observational study included 3146 patients from Olmsted County, Minnesota, with no history of coronary artery disease or cardiac symptoms in whom diabetes was newly diagnosed from January 1, 1992, through December 31, 2008. With combined all-cause mortality and myocardial infarction as the primary outcome, weighted Cox proportional hazards regression was performed with screening stress testing within 2 years of diabetes diagnosis as the time-dependent covariate. For descriptive analysis, participants were classified by their clinical experience during the first 2 years postdiagnosis as screened (asymptomatic, underwent stress test), unscreened (asymptomatic, no stress test), or symptomatic (experienced symptoms or event).Among the screened and unscreened participants, 54% (1358 of 2538) were men; the mean (SD) age at diabetes diagnosis was 55 years (13.8 years), and 97% (2442 of 2520) had type 2 diabetes. In event-free survival analysis, 292 patients comprised the screened cohort and 2246 patients comprised the unscreened cohort. Death or myocardial infarction occurred in 454 patients (32 patients in the screened cohort and 422 in the unscreened cohort [5-year rate, 1.9% and 5.3%, respectively]) during median (interquartile range) follow-up of 9.1 years (5.3-12.5 years). Screening stress testing was associated with improved event-free survival (hazard ratio, 0.61; P=.004), independent of cardiac risk factors. However, while stress test results were abnormal in 47 of the 292 screened patients (16%), only 6 (2%) underwent coronary revascularization.Although screening cardiac stress testing in asymptomatic patients with diabetes in this community-based population was associated with improvement in long-term event-free survival, this result does not appear to occur by coronary revascularization alone.

Project description:BackgroundCoronary artery disease (CAD) is the leading cause of morbidity and mortality in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM). The purpose of the present study was to discriminate the Indian CAD patients with or without T2DM by using multiple pathophysiological biomarkers.MethodsUsing sensitive multiplex protein assays, we assessed 46 protein markers including cytokines/chemokines, metabolic hormones, adipokines and apolipoproteins for evaluating different pathophysiological conditions of control, T2DM, CAD and T2DM with CAD patients (T2DM_CAD). Network analysis was performed to create protein-protein interaction networks by using significantly (p?<?0.05) altered protein markers in each disease using STRING 10.5 database. We used two supervised analysis methods i.e., between class analysis (BCA) and principal component analysis (PCA) to reveals distinct biomarkers profiles. Further, random forest classification (RF) was used to classify the diseases by the panel of markers.ResultsOur two supervised analysis methods BCA and PCA revealed a distinct biomarker profiles and high degree of variability in the marker profiles for T2DM_CAD and CAD. Thereafter, the present study identified multiple potential biomarkers to differentiate T2DM, CAD, and T2DM_CAD patients based on their relative abundance in serum. RF classified T2DM based on the abundance patterns of nine markers i.e., IL-1?, GM-CSF, glucagon, PAI-I, rantes, IP-10, resistin, GIP and Apo-B; CAD by 14 markers i.e., resistin, PDGF-BB, PAI-1, lipocalin-2, leptin, IL-13, eotaxin, GM-CSF, Apo-E, ghrelin, adipsin, GIP, Apo-CII and IP-10; and T2DM _CAD by 12 markers i.e., insulin, resistin, PAI-1, adiponectin, lipocalin-2, GM-CSF, adipsin, leptin, Apo-AII, rantes, IL-6 and ghrelin with respect to the control subjects. Using network analysis, we have identified several cellular network proteins like PTPN1, AKT1, INSR, LEPR, IRS1, IRS2, IL1R2, IL6R, PCSK9 and MYD88, which are responsible for regulating inflammation, insulin resistance, and atherosclerosis.ConclusionWe have identified three distinct sets of serum markers for diabetes, CAD and diabetes associated with CAD in Indian patients using nonparametric-based machine learning approach. These multiple marker classifiers may be useful for monitoring progression from a healthy person to T2DM and T2DM to T2DM_CAD. However, these findings need to be further confirmed in the future studies with large number of samples.
