Peripheral Vascular Disease Susceptibility Based on Diabetes Mellitus and rs17367504 Polymorphism of the MTHFR Gene.

ABSTRACT:

Purpose

Peripheral vascular disease (PVD) is a life-threatening condition affecting the lower extremities. Common risk factors include type 2 diabetes (T2D), hypertension, dyslipidemia, smoking, and older age. There is a little-documented research on the genetic basis of the disease in Taiwan. We examined the impact of T2D and the blood pressure-associated rs17367504 variant of the Methylenetetrahydrofolate reductase (MTHFR) gene on PVD risk.

Materials and methods

In this population-based association study, we linked data from 8992 participants in Taiwan Biobank (TWB) to their medical records in the National Health Insurance Research Database (NHIRD). Participants were 30 to 70 years old at recruitment and included those assessed between 2008 and 2015. We tested for association of PVD with rs17367504 and T2D using multiple logistic regression models. The rs17367504 variant was assessed using the Axiom-Taiwan Biobank Array Plate (TWB chip: Affymetrix, Inc., Santa Clara, CA, USA).

Results

Among cases with T2D (n = 1294), 158 (12.21%) were identified with PVD. T2D was associated with PVD (odds ratio [OR], 1.52; 95% confidence interval [CI], 1.21-1.91; p<0.001) whereas rs17367504 variant was not (OR, 0.96; CI, 0.76-1.21; p = 0.728 in AG/GG compared to AA homozygotes). However, T2D and rs17367504 had an interactive effect on PVD (p for interaction = 0.0076). Results from our stratified analyses displayed OR of 1.75 (CI, 1.35-2.26; p<0.001) in AA individuals with DM and 0.94 (CI, 0.56-1.58; p = 0.811) in AG+GG individuals with T2D. Using the AA genotype and no T2D as the reference group, the respective OR of PVD was 1.77 (CI, 1.38-2.28; p<0.001) in AA individuals with T2D; 1.18 (CI, 0.91-1.55; p = 0.215) in AG+GG individuals with no T2D, and 1.03 (CI, 0.66-1.60; p = 0.892) in AG+GG individuals with T2D .

Conclusion

We found that type 2 diabetes was associated with increased risk of peripheral vascular disease, particularly in AA genotype carriers of the rs17367504 variant in Taiwan.

Project description:PurposePatients with diabetes mellitus (DM) are known to be at higher risk for peripheral artery disease (PAD), amputations, and major adverse cardiovascular events, though it is unclear whether they are at any higher risk for repeat intervention. LIBERTY 360 offered an opportunity to study a real-world cohort of patients who underwent distal superficial femoral artery endovascular revascularizations. We aimed to describe patients with DM, their outcomes following peripheral vascular intervention, and the effect of DM on outcomes in the LIBERTY 360 cohort.MethodsLIBERTY 360 is a prospective, multi-center, non-randomized, mono-industry funded observational study of patients undergoing endovascular revascularization. Outcomes included 30-day and 1-year all-cause mortality, major amputation, target vessel/lesion revascularization, and a composite of those events. A multivariable regression model including DM was constructed to examine the effect of DM on outcomes. Multivariable survival estimates were made using Cox proportional hazards models.ResultsA total of 1,204 patients were enrolled, of whom 727 had DM (60.4%). Patients with DM had significantly more comorbidities and a third required insulin for DM management. Patients with DM had more severe disease based on Rutherford classification at baseline. After adjusting for comorbidities and disease severity, DM patients had more frequent major amputations at 1 year (5.2% versus 1.2%; HR 2.71, 95%CI 1.05-6.98, p = 0.040). The 1-year rates of all-cause mortality and target vessel/lesion revascularization were not significantly higher for patients with DM.ConclusionsDiabetes mellitus was associated with increased major amputations at 1 year following endovascular revascularization after accounting for demographics, comorbidities, and PAD-related characteristics. Further research is needed to determine which aspects of PAD and DM are most strongly associated with poor outcomes following lower extremity revascularization.

Project description:BackgroundDiabetes is one of the common chronic diseases in which susceptibility is determined by a combination of genetic and environmental factors, and more than 90% of diabetic patients are diabetes mellitus type 2 (T2DM). The existing studies on the association between CDKAL1 rs10946398 gene polymorphism and susceptibility to type 2 diabetes are inconsistent across populations.AimWe aim to explore the association between CDKAL1 rs10946398 gene polymorphism and susceptibility to type 2 diabetes in different populations.MethodsWe examined all studies before June 12, 2021, that associated CDKAL1 rs10946398 with T2DM. Heterogeneity was assessed by meta-analysis of allelic inheritance models (A vs. C), dominant inheritance models (AA vs. AC+CC), and recessive inheritance model (AA+AC vs. CC); I 2 was used to assess the heterogeneity (if I 2 < 50%, the fixed-effects model was used; if I 2 ≥ 50%, the random-effects model was used for data consolidation); correlation was judged by a forest map; potential publication bias was tested by the Egger test (p > 0.05 indicates that there is no publication bias).ResultsFourteen data totaling 30288 subjects, including 19272 controls and 11016 patients with T2DM, met our inclusion criteria. In the Asian population, the differences were statistically significant (p < 0.01) for dominant genetic model (OR = 0.75, 95%CI = 0.64-0.88, p = 0.0003). But the allelic effect model (OR = 0.87, 95%CI = 0.75-1.02, p = 0.08) and the recessive genetic model (OR = 0.85, 95%CI = 0.66-1.10, p = 0.23) were not statistically significant (p > 0.01). In the non-Asian population, the differences were statistically significant (p < 0.01) for the allelic effect model (OR = 0.83, 95%CI = 0.77-0.88, p < 0.00001), the dominant model (OR = 0.79, 95%CI = 0.72-0.87, p < 0.00001), and the recessive model (OR = 0.78, 95%CI = 0.70-0.87, p < 0.0001).ConclusionIn this study, CDKAL1 RS10946398 was positively associated with T2DM, but the association was different in Asian populations.
