Project description:BACKGROUND:Anemia is thought to increase mortality risks, but the effects of high hemoglobin concentration on survival are unclear. The effect of change in hemoglobin concentrations on survival in the general population is also unknown. This study aimed to examine the effect of hemoglobin concentrations and their changes on cardiovascular and all-cause mortality risks. METHODS AND RESULTS:We retrospectively analyzed a cohort from the NHIS-HEALS (National Health Insurance Service-National Health Screening Cohort) database, including 170 078 men and 122 116 women without cardiovascular diseases, aged >40 years at baseline, with hemoglobin concentrations available for both first and second health examinations. We assessed 2 independent variables: "One-time" hemoglobin concentrations and changes in hemoglobin from first to second examination. Participants were followed up for a median of 8 years to determine mortality related to myocardial infarction, stroke, all cardiovascular diseases, and all causes. Hemoglobin concentrations showed a U- or J-shaped association with cardiovascular and all-cause mortality after adjusting for cardiovascular risk factors. When anemic men achieved normal hemoglobin concentrations, the all-cause mortality risk decreased, with an adjusted hazard ratio of 0.67 (95% confidence interval, 0.59-0.77), in comparison with those whose anemia persisted. Both increases and decreases of hemoglobin concentration outside the normal range elevated all-cause mortality risk (adjusted hazard ratio: 1.39 [95% confidence interval, 1.28-1.49] and 1.10 [95% confidence interval, 1.01-1.20], respectively), compared with persistent normal hemoglobin concentrations. The trend was similar in women but was less significant. CONCLUSIONS:Low or high hemoglobin concentrations were associated with elevated cardiovascular and all-cause mortality. Reaching and maintaining hemoglobin concentrations within the normal range correlated with decreased all-cause mortality.

Project description:Context:There is a substantial interindividual variation in the association between glycated hemoglobin (HbA1c) and plasma glucose concentrations. Its impact on cardiovascular disease (CVD) has not been comprehensively evaluated. Objective:We examined associations between interindividual variations in HbA1c, which was estimated as the hemoglobin glycation index (HGI), and CVD. Design, Setting, and Participants:We performed a cross-sectional analysis with 1248 treatment-naïve subjects with prediabetes or diabetes. The HGI was defined as the measured HbA1c minus predicted HbA1c, which was calculated from the linear relationship between HbA1c and fasting plasma glucose levels. Main Outcome Measures:The prevalence of composite and individual CVDs including coronary artery disease (CAD), stroke, and peripheral artery disease (PAD). Results:The overall prevalence of composite CVD was 10.3% and individual prevalences of CAD, stroke, and PAD were 5.7%, 5.1%, and 1.3%, respectively. All prevalences significantly increased from the first to third tertile of HGI. In multivariate analysis, the highest HGI tertile was independently associated with composite CVD [odds ratio (95% confidence interval): 2.81 (1.59-4.98)], and individual CAD [2.30 (1.12-4.73)], stroke [3.40 (1.50-7.73)], and PAD [6.37 (1.18-34.33)] after adjustment for other CVD risk factors including HbA1c levels. Two consecutive measurements of HGI obtained on different days showed good correlation (r = 0.651, P < 0.001) and high concordance rate in the tertile classification (69.1%). Conclusions:High HGI was independently associated with overall and individual CVDs. This result suggests that discrepancy between HbA1c and fasting glucose levels can reflect vascular health in subjects with impaired glucose metabolism.

Project description:BackgroundWe aimed to assess the impact of healthy cardiovascular health (CVH) on diabetic complications, mortality, and life expectancy among people with type 2 diabetes and to explore whether inflammation marker mediate these associations.MethodsThis prospective cohort study included 33,236 participants (aged 40-72) with type 2 diabetes from the UK Biobank with annual follow-up from 2006 to 2010 to 2020. Type 2 diabetes was ascertained from self-report, glycated hemoglobin ≥ 6.5%, hospital inpatient registry, or glucose-lowering medication use. Information on mortality was derived from the national death registry. Favorable CVH metrics consisted of non-smoker, regular physical activity, a healthy diet, non-overweight, untreated resting blood pressure < 120/<80 mm Hg, and untreated total cholesterol < 200 mg/dL. Participants were categorized into three groups according to the number of favorable CVH metrics: unfavorable (0 or 1); intermediate (any 2 or 3); and favorable (4 or more). Inflammation marker, as measured by C-reactive protein (CRP), was assessed at baseline and categorized as low (≤ 3 mg/L) and high (> 3 mg/L). Data were analyzed using Cox regression models, flexible parametric survival models, and mediation models.ResultsDuring the follow-up (median: 11.7 years), 3133 (9.4%) cases of diabetes complications and 4701 (14.1%) deaths occurred. Compared to unfavorable CVH, favorable CVH was associated with a reduced risk of diabetes complications (HR, 0.35; 95% CI, 0.26-0.47) and all-cause mortality (HR, 0.53; 95% CI, 0.43-0.65). In participants with unfavorable CVH, life expectancy at age 45 had a significantly reduction of 7.20 (95% CI, 5.48-8.92) years compared to those with a favorable CVH. Among people with type 2 diabetes, the proportions of diabetes complications and all-cause mortality that would be reduced by promoting the favorable CVH was 61.5% and 39.1%, respectively. CRP level mediated 14.3% and 29.7% of the associations between CVH and diabetic complication and all-cause mortality, respectively.ConclusionA favorable CVH was associated with lower risk of diabetes complications and mortality risk, and was associated with a longer life expectancy among people with type 2 diabetes. This association may be in part accounted for by inflammatory processes. Our findings highlight the importance of favorable CVH for the prevention of diabetic complications and all-cause mortality among people with type 2 diabetes, and underscores the need to monitor inflammation among people with unfavorable CVH.

Project description:Background Anemia is considered to increase the risk of mortality in high-risk populations, but its effect has not been examined among young populations. This study aimed to determine the effect of hemoglobin (Hb) concentration and its changes on the risk of acute myocardial infarction ( AMI ), stroke, cerebrovascular disease and all-cause mortality among young women. Methods and Results We analyzed data from the Korean National Health Information Database on 808 143 women aged 20 to 39 years without any cardiocerebrovascular disease. A 1-time Hb concentration and changes in Hb over a 2-year period were calculated as exposures. Participants were followed for a median of 10 years to determine the risk of AMI , stroke, cerebrovascular disease, and all-cause mortality. There were U- or J-shaped associations between Hb concentration or change in Hb and AMI , stroke, cerebrovascular disease, and all-cause mortality. Increasing the Hb concentration from normal to high increased the risk for AMI (hazard ratio [95% confidence interval]: 1.49 [1.08-2.04]). With regard to the risk for stroke, increasing the Hb concentration from a normal to a high range increased the risk (hazard ratio [95% confidence interval]: 1.10 [1.02-1.35]), and decreasing the Hb concentration from a high to a normal range decreased this risk (hazard ratio [95% confidence interval]: 0.80 [0.60-0.97]). Improving anemia to the normal Hb range decreased all-cause mortality (hazard ratio [95% confidence interval]: 0.81 [0.69-0.94]); however, overcorrection of Hb concentration (Hb≥14.0 g/dL) was not significant. Conclusions These findings suggest that regular Hb analysis may assist in identifying young women who are at risk of AMI , stroke, cerebrovascular disease, and all-cause mortality.

Project description:ObjectiveThe aim of the study was to investigate the association between body roundness index (BRI) and all-cause mortality and cardiovascular mortality in general population.DesignA retrospective cohort study.SettingThe status of cardiovascular mortality and all-cause mortality of participants were followed through 31 December 2015. Multivariate adjusted Cox restricted cubic spline regression models and Kaplan-Meier survival curves were used to evaluate the relationship between BRI and cardiovascular mortality and all-cause mortality.ParticipantsA sample of 47 356 participants from the National Health and Nutrition Examination Surveys 1999-2014 with aged ≥18 years.ResultsMean age was 47 years and female were 49·9 %. During a median follow-up of 92 months, 4715 participants died from any cause, with 985 died of CVD. In multivariate adjusted Cox regression, compared with the lowest quartile of Body roundness index (BRI), the hazard ratios (HR) for all-cause mortality from other quartiles were 0·83, 95 % CI (0·75, 0·92), 0·73, 95 % CI (0·65, 0·81) and 0·80, 95 % CI (0·72, 0·89), respectively (Pfor trend < 0·05) and the HR for cardiovascular mortality from other quartiles were 0·79, 95 % CI (0·62, 1·00), 0·78, 95 % CI (0·62, 0·99) and 0·79, 95 % CI (0·62, 1·01), respectively (P for trend > 0·05). In the restricted cubic spline regression models, the relationship was showed U-shaped between BRI and all-cause mortality and cardiovascular mortality. In Kaplan-Meier survival curves, the lowest cumulative survival rate of cardiovascular mortality and all-cause mortality was recorded in the highest BRI quartile.ConclusionsThe U-shaped association between BRI and all-cause mortality and cardiovascular mortality in a large population-based cohort was observed.

Project description:ObjectiveThe prognostic significance of diabetic retinopathy (DR) for death and cardiovascular (CV) outcomes is debated. We investigated the association of DR with all-cause mortality and CV events in patients with diabetes by a systematic review and meta-analysis.Research design and methodsThe electronic databases Medline and Embase were searched for cohort studies that evaluated DR in type 2 or type 1 diabetic patients and reported total mortality and/or fatal and nonfatal CV events, including myocardial infarction, angina pectoris, coronary artery bypass graft, ischemic changes on a conventional 12-lead electrocardiogram, transient ischemic attack, nonfatal stroke, or lower leg amputation. Data extraction was performed by two reviewers independently. Pooled effect estimates were obtained by using random-effects meta-analysis.ResultsThe analysis included 20 studies that fulfilled the inclusion criteria, providing data from 19,234 patients. In patients with type 2 diabetes (n = 14,896), the presence of any degree of DR increased the chance for all-cause mortality and/or CV events by 2.34 (95% CI 1.96-2.80) compared with patients without DR. In patients with type 1 diabetes (n = 4,438), the corresponding odds ratio was 4.10 (1.50-11.18). These associations remained after adjusting for traditional CV risk factors. DR was also predictive of all-cause mortality in type 2 diabetes (odds ratio 2.41 [1.87-3.10]) and type 1 diabetes (3.65 [1.05-12.66]).ConclusionsThe presence of DR was associated with an increased risk of all-cause mortality and CV events in both type 2 and type 1 diabetic patients.

Project description:Importance:The association of diabetic microvascular complications such as diabetic retinopathy (DR) and diabetic kidney disease (DKD) with mortality in populations is not clear. Objective:To examine the association of DR and DKD separately and jointly with all-cause and cardiovascular disease (CVD) mortality in a multiethnic Asian population. Design, Setting, and Participants:A population-based cohort study was conducted including 2964 adults between the ages of 40 and 80 years with diabetes who participated in the Singapore Epidemiology of Eye Diseases study (baseline, 2004-2011). Data analysis was performed from January to May 2018. Exposures:Diabetic retinopathy ascertained from retinal photographs and DKD from estimated glomerular filtration rate. Main Outcomes and Measures:All-cause and CVD mortality obtained by linkage with the National Registry of Births and Deaths until May 2017. Results:Of the 2964 adults (mean [SD] age, 61.8 [10.0] years; 1464 [49.4%] female; 592 Chinese, 1052 Malay, and 1320 Indian), 29.9% of the participants had DR, while 20.7% had DKD. Over a median (interquartile range) follow-up of 8.8 (7.2-11.0) years, 610 deaths occurred (20.6%), of which 267 (9.0%) were due to CVD. In separate models, the multivariable hazard ratios for all-cause and CVD mortality were 1.54 (95% CI, 1.24-1.91) and 1.74 (95% CI, 1.27-2.40), respectively, for DR and 2.04 (95% CI, 1.64-2.56) and 2.29 (95% CI, 1.64-3.19), respectively, for DKD. In models including both DR and DKD, the subgroup with DKD alone (27.1% and 12.6%) followed by DR alone (6.5% and 5.2%) contributed substantially to the excess risk of all-cause and CVD mortality. Compared with those with no DR and DKD, the hazard ratios of all-cause and CVD mortality were 1.89 (95% CI, 1.40-2.57) and 2.26 (95% CI, 1.42-3.61), respectively, for DKD alone and 1.38 (95% CI, 1.03-1.86) and 1.64 (95% CI, 1.06-2.56), respectively, for DR alone. Hazard ratios for all-cause and CVD mortality were 2.76 (95% CI, 2.05-3.72) and 3.41 (95% CI, 2.19-5.32), respectively, for those with both DKD and DR. The relative excess risk associated with the interaction was 0.49 (95% CI, -0.29 to 1.27; P = .20) for all-cause mortality and 0.51 (95% CI, -0.83 to 1.85; P = .50) for CVD mortality. Conclusions and Relevance:These results suggest that risks of all-cause and CVD mortality were significantly higher in those with DKD and DR, but DKD was more strongly associated with excess risk. The findings underscore the importance of early identification and close monitoring and management of patients with DR and DKD to reduce the risk of death.

Project description:ObjectiveSystemic immune-inflammation index (SII), derived from blood cell counts of circulating platelets, neutrophils, and lymphocytes, has been identified as a novel inflammatory and prognostic marker. However, the clinical value of SII in patients with arteriosclerotic cardiovascular disease (ASCVD) had not been further explored. Thus, this study is designed to explore the associations of SII with mortality in ASCVD individuals.MethodsAll individuals with ASCVD aged ≥20 years were included from the National Health and Nutritional Examination Surveys (NHANES) 2005-2014 and followed for survival until 31 December 2019. Multivariable Cox analysis investigated the associations between SII, evaluated as a continuous variable with splines, as categorical ones (quartiles), and the all-cause death. To demonstrate the association between SII and mortality, subgroup analysis, restricted cubic spline along with piecewise linear regression were also conducted.ResultsA total of 2,595 participants (57.8% men) were included. During a median of 7.7 years of follow-up, 1,122 deaths due to all-cause were recorded. After adjusting for multiple confounders, when compared with the patients in quartile 1 (SII ln transform), those in quartile 4 had a 46% increased risk for all-cause death [hazard ratio (HR) = 1.46, 95% confidence interval (CI) = 1.22-1.75]. As a continuous variable, each unit of raised ln-SII was associated with a 24% increased risk of all-cause death (HR = 1.24, 95% CI = 1.10-1.38). In the restricted cubic spline regression model, the relationship between ln-SII and all-cause death was non-linear. The cutoff value of ln-SII for mortality was 6.57 and those with a higher than the threshold point had a 1.25-fold risk of mortality. No significant difference was noted below the threshold points.ConclusionAn association was detected between the baseline ln-SII and all-cause mortality in a United States ASCVD population. Increased SII is associated with poor survival in individuals with ASCVD.

Project description:BackgroundThe evidence regarding the association between the systemic immune inflammatory index (SII) and mortality among individuals with diabetes is limited. This study aims to evaluate the associations between SII and all-cause and cause-specific mortality among individuals with diabetes.MethodsThe study included 8,668 participants with diabetes from the National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (NHANES) 1999-2018 with follow-up until 31 December 2019. The calculation of SII in this study was performed using the following formula: the neutrophil-to-lymphocyte ratio multiplied by the platelet count (10^9 cells/µL).ResultsThe study documented 2,463 deaths over 68,542 person-years, including 853 deaths from CVD and 424 from cancer. An increase in SII was significantly associated with higher all-cause and CVD mortality risk after multivariate adjustment. For each standard deviation increment in natural log transformed SII (lnSII), all-cause mortality increased by 17%, and CVD mortality increased by 34% (both P < 0.001). Additionally, the association between SII and all-cause mortality was U-shaped, with the inflection point at 6.02. The association between SII and CVD mortality was non-linear and J-shaped, where the risk increased significantly when lnSII exceeded 6.22. Furthermore, the association between SII and CVD mortality was attenuated in female and hyperlipidemia patients.ConclusionIn this study, we observed a significant positive association between the SII and both all-cause and CVD mortality in patients with diabetes. Additionally, it was discovered that this association exhibited a non-linear pattern. These findings suggest that maintaining SII within an optimal range may play a critical role in mitigating the risk of mortality.

Project description:ObjectiveTo evaluate the associations between prediabetes and the risk of all cause mortality and incident cardiovascular disease in the general population and in patients with a history of atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease.DesignUpdated meta-analysis.Data sourcesElectronic databases (PubMed, Embase, and Google Scholar) up to 25 April 2020.Review methodsProspective cohort studies or post hoc analysis of clinical trials were included for analysis if they reported adjusted relative risks, odds ratios, or hazard ratios of all cause mortality or cardiovascular disease for prediabetes compared with normoglycaemia. Data were extracted independently by two investigators. Random effects models were used to calculate the relative risks and 95% confidence intervals. The primary outcomes were all cause mortality and composite cardiovascular disease. The secondary outcomes were the risk of coronary heart disease and stroke.ResultsA total of 129 studies were included, involving 10 069 955 individuals for analysis. In the general population, prediabetes was associated with an increased risk of all cause mortality (relative risk 1.13, 95% confidence interval 1.10 to 1.17), composite cardiovascular disease (1.15, 1.11 to 1.18), coronary heart disease (1.16, 1.11 to 1.21), and stroke (1.14, 1.08 to 1.20) in a median follow-up time of 9.8 years. Compared with normoglycaemia, the absolute risk difference in prediabetes for all cause mortality, composite cardiovascular disease, coronary heart disease, and stroke was 7.36 (95% confidence interval 9.59 to 12.51), 8.75 (6.41 to 10.49), 6.59 (4.53 to 8.65), and 3.68 (2.10 to 5.26) per 10 000 person years, respectively. Impaired glucose tolerance carried a higher risk of all cause mortality, coronary heart disease, and stroke than impaired fasting glucose. In patients with atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease, prediabetes was associated with an increased risk of all cause mortality (relative risk 1.36, 95% confidence interval 1.21 to 1.54), composite cardiovascular disease (1.37, 1.23 to 1.53), and coronary heart disease (1.15, 1.02 to 1.29) in a median follow-up time of 3.2 years, but no difference was seen for the risk of stroke (1.05, 0.81 to 1.36). Compared with normoglycaemia, in patients with atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease, the absolute risk difference in prediabetes for all cause mortality, composite cardiovascular disease, coronary heart disease, and stroke was 66.19 (95% confidence interval 38.60 to 99.25), 189.77 (117.97 to 271.84), 40.62 (5.42 to 78.53), and 8.54 (32.43 to 61.45) per 10 000 person years, respectively. No significant heterogeneity was found for the risk of all outcomes seen for the different definitions of prediabetes in patients with atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease (all P>0.10).ConclusionsResults indicated that prediabetes was associated with an increased risk of all cause mortality and cardiovascular disease in the general population and in patients with atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease. Screening and appropriate management of prediabetes might contribute to primary and secondary prevention of cardiovascular disease.
