Project description:Epidemiological studies have found that low 25-hydroxyvitamin D levels may be associated with coronary risk factors and adverse cardiovascular outcomes. Additionally, vitamin D deficiency causes an increase in parathyroid hormone, which increases insulin resistance and is associated with diabetes, hypertension, inflammation, and increased cardiovascular risk. In this review, we analyze the association between vitamin D supplementation and the reduction in cardiovascular disease. The role of vitamin D deficiency in cardiovascular morbidity and mortality is still controversial, and larger scale, randomized placebo controlled trials are needed to investigate whether oral vitamin D supplementation can reduce cardiovascular risk. Given the low cost, safety, and demonstrated benefit of higher 25-hydroxyvitamin D levels, vitamin D supplementation should become a public health priority for combating common and costly chronic cardiovascular diseases.

Project description:The purpose of this paper is to assess the effect of glucagon-like peptide-1 receptor agonists (GLP-1RAs) on stroke or heart disease in patients having chronic respiratory disease and diabetes (CD) with underlying diseases related to COVID-19. From 1998 to 2019, we adjusted competing risk by assessing the effect of GLP-1RAs on stroke or heart disease in a CD cohort after propensity matching based on the Taiwan National Health Insurance Research Database. We also used the time-dependent method to examine the results. GLP-1 RA and non-GLP-1 RA user groups included 15,801 patients (53% women and 46% men with a mean age of 52.6 ± 12.8 years). The time between the diagnoses of DM and the initial use of the GLP-1 RA among the stroke subcohort (<2000 days) was shorter than that of the heart disease subcohort (>2000 days) (all p-values < 0.05). The overall risks of stroke, ischemic, and hemorrhagic stroke were significantly lower in GLP-1 RA users than nonusers. The adjusted subhazard ratio (aSHR) was 0.76 [95% CI 0.65-0.90], 0.77 [95% CI 0.64-0.92], and 0.69 [95% CI 0.54-0.88] (p < 0.05 for all). Furthermore, a ≥351-day use had a significantly lower stroke risk than GLP-1 RA nonusers (aSHR 0.35 [95% CI 0.26-0.49]). The time-dependent method revealed the same result, such as lower stroke, and ischemic or hemorrhagic stroke risk. In contrast, the cardiac arrhythmia incidence was higher in GLP-1 RA users with an aSHR of 1.36 [95% CI 1.16-1.59]. However, this risk disappeared after the ≥351-day use with 1.21 (0.98, 1.68) aSHR. Longer GLP-1 RA use was associated with a decreased risk of ischemic or hemorrhagic stroke and the risk of cardiac arrhythmia disappears in a CD cohort. Both a shorter lag time use of the GLP-1 RA and a longer time use of GLP-1 RA were associated with a decreased risk of ischemic or hemorrhagic stroke in the CD cohort. The GLP-1 RA use in the early stage and optimal time use in the CD cohort may avoid the stroke risk.

Project description:Chronic kidney disease (CKD) is a significant health challenge associated with high cardiovascular mortality risk. Historically, cardiovascular mortality risk has been found to higher in men than women in the general population. However, recent research has highlighted that this risk may be similar or even higher in women than men in the CKD population. To address the inconclusive and inconsistent evidence regarding this relationship between sex and cardiovascular mortality within CKD patients, a systematic review and meta-analysis of articles published between January 2004 and October 2020 using PubMed/Medline, EMBASE, Scopus and Cochrane databases was performed. Forty-eight studies were included that reported cardiovascular mortality among adult men relative to women with 95% confidence intervals (CI) or provided sufficient data to calculate risk estimates (RE). Random effects meta-analysis of reported and calculated estimates revealed that male sex was associated with elevated cardiovascular mortality in CKD patients (RE 1.13, CI 1.03-1.25). Subsequent subgroup analyses indicated higher risk in men in studies based in the USA and in men receiving haemodialysis or with non-dialysis-dependent CKD. Though men showed overall higher cardiovascular mortality risk than women, the increased risk was marginal, and appropriate risk awareness is necessary for both sexes with CKD. Further research is needed to understand the impact of treatment modality and geographical distribution on sex differences in cardiovascular mortality in CKD.

Project description:ObjectivesThis study assessed whether the physical component summary score of the RAND-36 health-related quality-of-life survey was associated with incidence of coronary heart disease, stroke, congestive heart failure, angina, or peripheral arterial disease, and whether baseline chronic conditions modified these associations.MethodsAnalysis was limited to 69,155 postmenopausal women (50-79 years) in the Women's Health Initiative Study who had complete data on the RAND-36, the outcomes, and covariates. Chronic conditions were defined as blood pressure ⩾140/90 mm or self-reported heart disease, diabetes, hypertension, arthritis, asthma, emphysema, cancer, and/or cholesterol-reducing medication use. Outcomes data were ascertained during follow-up (1993-2005) with medical records.ResultsThere were 2451 coronary heart disease, 1896 stroke, 1533 congestive heart failure, 1957 angina, and 502 peripheral arterial disease events during follow-up (median 8.2 years). Participants in the lowest physical component summary quintile, compared to the highest, had a significantly higher risk of developing coronary heart disease (hazard ratio (95% confidence interval) 2.0 (1.7, 2.3)), stroke (1.8 (1.5, 2.2)), angina (2.4(2.0, 2.9)), and peripheral arterial disease (3.0 (2.0, 4.4)), irrespective of chronic conditions. Interactions between physical component summary and existing chronic conditions were not significant for any outcome except congestive heart failure (p = 0.005); after adjustment, participants in the lowest physical component summary quintile and with any chronic condition had nearly a twofold higher risk of congestive heart failure (Yes = 4.4 (3.3, 5.8) vs No = 2.4 (1.2, 4.3)).ConclusionWe found a low physical component summary score was a significant risk factor for individual cardiovascular disease incidence in postmenopausal women.

Project description:It is unclear whether ideal cardiovascular health (CVH) behaviors and factors, particularly cumulative exposure to ideal CVH (cumCVH), is associated with chronic kidney disease (CKD). The aim of the study was to examine the effect of cumCVH on CKD using the data from the Kailuan study. The study included the 27,970 (21,199 males) of the Kailuan community (China). The participants were 19 to 98 years of age. They were followed in 2008-2009, 2010-2011, and 2012-2013 by the same medical staff that did the initial physical examinations in 2006-2007. Participants were censored on the visit reporting CKD. A CVH score was created based on the seven AHA health metrics. The cumCVH score was CVH1×timev1-v2+CVH2×timev2-v3+CVH3×timev3-v4. In the fully adjusted model, compared with the lowest quintile of cumCVH, individuals in the highest quintile had a 75% lower risk of CKD (95% confidence interval (CI): 66-82%). Every additional year lived with a 1-unit increase in ideal CVH was associated with an 11% (95% CI: 9-13%) reduction in the incidence of CKD. Furthermore, when we excluded each of the six metrics from the cumCVH score in turn, the association was unaffected after the exclusion of individual risk factors. Ideal CVH is associated with a reduced incidence of CKD. Measurements of cumCVH are more likely to reflect the lifetime risk of CKD and possibly of other health outcomes.

Project description:ObjectiveThe aim of this study was to compare the association between age and disability length across common chronic conditions.MethodsAnalysis of 39,915 nonwork-related disability claims with a diagnosis of arthritis, diabetes, hypertension, coronary artery disease, depression, low back pain, chronic pulmonary disease, or cancer. Ordinary least squares regression models examined age-length of disability association across chronic conditions.ResultsArthritis (76.6 days), depression (63.2 days), and cancer (64.9 days) were associated with longest mean disability lengths; hypertension was related to shortest disability lengths (41.5 days). Across chronic conditions, older age was significantly associated with longer work disability. The age-length of disability association was most significant for chronic pulmonary disease and cancer. The relationship between age and length of work disability was linear among most chronic conditions.ConclusionsWork disability prevention strategies should consider both employee age and chronic condition diagnosis.

Project description:IntroductionChronic Kidney Disease (CKD) is a growing global health issue, affecting approximately 9.1% of the world's population. Oxidative stress is believed to play a key role in CKD development, with indicators such as the Oxidative Balance Score (OBS), Pro-Oxidant-Antioxidant Balance (PAB), and Total Antioxidant Capacity (TAC) being of particular interest. However, their association with CKD remains unclear.MethodsThis study conducted a cross-sectional analysis using data from the National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (NHANES) 2009-2018. A total of 18,951 participants were included after applying specific inclusion criteria. Logistic regression models and restricted cubic spline regression were employed to examine the associations between these oxidative balance indicators and CKD. Subgroup and interaction analyses were also conducted for further data analyses. Finally, ROC curve analysis was used to assess the predictive performance of these indicators for CKD risk.ResultsAfter adjusting for various confounding factors, higher levels of OBS and PAB were significantly associated with a reduced risk of CKD (OR = 0.97, 95% CI: 0.96-0.99, P < 0.001; OR = 0.94, 95% CI: 0.92-0.97, P < 0.001, respectively). The ORs for the highest quartiles of OBS and PAB were 0.60 (95% CI: 0.49-0.75, P < 0.001) and 0.77 (95% CI: 0.63-0.94, P = 0.013), respectively. In contrast, TAC showed no significant association with CKD. ROC curve analysis further indicated that OBS had a superior predictive ability for CKD risk (AUC = 0.579) compared to PAB (AUC = 0.519) and TAC (AUC = 0.492).ConclusionThe study suggests that oxidative balance indicators, particularly OBS and PAB, are inversely associated with CKD risk, while TAC showed no significant link. OBS demonstrated the strongest predictive ability among the indicators. These findings highlight the potential role of oxidative balance in CKD prevention. Further research is needed to confirm these associations in diverse populations and to explore the underlying mechanisms.

Project description:Observational studies suggest that cardiovascular disease (CVD) increases the risk of developing Alzheimer's disease (AD). However, the causal relationship between the two is not clear. This study applied a two-sample bidirectional Mendelian randomization method to explore the causal relationship between CVD and AD. Genome-wide association study (GWAS) data from 46 datasets of European populations (21,982 cases of AD and 41,944 controls) were utilized to obtain genetic instrumental variables for AD. In addition, genetic instrumental variables for atrial fibrillation (AF), heart failure (HF), myocardial infarction (MI), coronary heart disease (CHD), angina pectoris (AP), and ischemic stroke (IS) (including large-artery atherosclerotic stroke [LAS] and cardioembolic stroke [CES]) were selected from GWAS data of European populations (P < 5E-8). The inverse variance weighting method was employed as the major Mendelian randomization analysis method. Genetically predicted AD odds ratios (OR) (1.06) (95% CI: 1.02-1.10, P = 0.003) were linked to higher AP analysis. A higher genetically predicted OR for CES (0.9) (95% CI 0.82-0.99, P = 0.02) was linked to a decreased AD risk. This Mendelian randomized study identified AD as a risk factor for AP. In addition, CES was related to a reduced incidence of AD. Therefore, these modifiable risk factors are crucial targets for preventing and treating AD.
