J Diabetes Complications 2024; 38:108766. [PMID: 38759539 DOI: 10.1016/j.jdiacomp.2024.108766] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/29/2024] [Revised: 04/17/2024] [Accepted: 05/09/2024] [Indexed: 05/19/2024]
Abstract
AIM To evaluate the relationship between common carotid artery intima media thickness (CIMT) in patients with prediabetes and new-onset diabetes mellitus without proven cardiovascular disease and some classic cardio-metabolic risk factors. PATIENTS AND METHODS The study included 461 obese patients with an average age of 53.2 ± 10.7 years, divided into three groups - group 1 without carbohydrate disturbances (n = 182), group 2 with prediabetes (n = 193) and group 3 with newly diagnosed diabetes mellitus (n = 86). RESULTS The patients with new-onset diabetes had significantly higher mean CIMT values compared to those with prediabetes or without carbohydrate disturbances and a higher frequency of abnormal IMT values. CIMT correlated significantly with age, systolic BP, diastolic BP and fasting blood glucose and showed a high predictive value for the presence of diabetic neuropathy and sudomotor dysfunction. Patients with abnormal CIMT values had a higher incidence of arterial hypertension, dyslipidemia, metabolic syndrome, peripheral neuropathy, and sudomotor dysfunction. Patients who developed type 2 diabetes during follow-up had a significantly higher initial mean CIMT, which showed the highest predictive value for the risk of new-onset diabetes, with CIMT≥0.7 mm having 53 % sensitivity and 83 % specificity for the risk of progression to diabetes mellitus. CONCLUSION Patients with new-onset diabetes mellitus had significantly greater intima media thickness of the common carotid artery and a greater frequency of abnormal CIMT values compared to those with normoglycemia and prediabetes. CIMT has a high predictive value for the presence of diabetic neuropathy, sudomotor dysfunction and the risk of new onset diabetes.

Yue L, Tian Y, Ma M, Jing L, Sun Q, Shi L, Sun J, Wang W, Li G, Xing L, Liu S. Prevalence of prediabetes and risk of CVD mortality in individuals with prediabetes alone or plus hypertension in Northeast China: insight from a population based cohort study. BMC Public Health 2024; 24:475. [PMID: 38360567 PMCID: PMC10868051 DOI: 10.1186/s12889-024-17996-y] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/12/2023] [Accepted: 02/05/2024] [Indexed: 02/17/2024] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND To evaluate the current prevalence of prediabetes in northeast China, and further determine the association between prediabetes alone or coexistent with hypertension and cardiovascular disease (CVD) mortality. METHODS In the prospective study, 15,557 participants without diabetes among aged ≥40 years in northeast China, were followed for a median of 5.5 years. Following the American Diabetes Association, prediabetes was defined as fasting plasma glucose (FPG) range of 5.6-6.9 mmol/L or glycated hemoglobin (HbA1c) range of 5.7-6.4% in people without diabetes. RESULTS The prevalence of prediabetes was 44.3% among population aged ≥40 years in northeast China. Prediabetes alone did not promote risk of CVD mortality. However, when the subgroups were stratified by hypertension, the CVD mortality risk in prediabetes plus hypertension subjects increased significantly compared with population without prediabetes and hypertension. Multivariate-adjusted hazard ratios for CVD mortality in prediabetes subgroups plus hypertension were 2.28 (95% CI: 1.50, 3.47) for those diagnosed by FPG < 5.6 mmol/L & HbA1c 5.7-6.4%, 2.18 (95% CI: 1.53, 3.10) for those diagnosed by FPG 5.6-6.0 mmol/L & HbA1c < 6.5% and 2.35 (95% CI: 1.65, 3.35) for those diagnosed by FPG 6.1-6.9 & HbA1c < 6.5% compared with the reference group. Moreover, the percentage of hypertension in prediabetes subjects was high (60.4%), but the awareness, treatment and control rates were far from satisfactory (45.3, 35.1 and 4.8%, respectively). CONCLUSIONS The prevalence of prediabetes remains high in northeast China, and the CVD mortality was elevated significantly in prediabetes coexistent with hypertension. Considering the high percentage and low control rate of hypertension in prediabetes, strategies focused on HbA1c screening, FPG lowering and blood pressure management should be emphasized in northeast China.

Risk Factors for Coronary Artery Calcifications in Overweight or Obese Persons with Prediabetes: Can They Predict T2 Diabetes and Coronary Vascular Events? J Clin Med 2023; 12:3915. [PMID: 37373609 DOI: 10.3390/jcm12123915] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/22/2023] [Revised: 05/29/2023] [Accepted: 06/05/2023] [Indexed: 06/29/2023] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND It is difficult to predict the risk of developing atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease in subjects with prediabetes and obesity. The aim of this study was to assess risk factors for coronary artery calcifications (CACs) and the development of type 2 diabetes (T2D) and coronary vascular events (CVEs) after 7 years in 100 overweight or obese persons with prediabetes, according to the baseline coronary artery calcium score (CACS). METHODS Lipids, HbA1c, uric acid, and creatinine were assessed. Glucose, insulin, and c-peptide were determined during an oral glucose tolerance test. Multi-sliced computerized tomography with evaluation of CACS was performed. After 7 years, the subjects were assessed for T2D/CVE. RESULTS CACs were present in 59 subjects. No single biochemical marker could predict presence of a CAC. After 7 years, T2D developed in 55 subjects (61.8% initially had both IFG and IGT). A gain in weight was the only contributing factor for T2D. Nineteen subjects developed a CVE; increased initial clustering of HOMA-IR > 1.9, LDL > 2.6, and mmol/Land TGL > 1.7 mmol/L and higher CACS were present in that group. CONCLUSIONS No risk factors for CACs could be identified. A gain in weight is associated with T2D development, as are higher CACS and clustering of high LDL+TGL+HOMA-IR with CVEs.

Abstract
Isolated postchallenge hyperglycemia (IPH) is a type of diabetes mellitus defined as 2-h glucose ≥200 mg/dL but fasting glucose <126 mg/dL. The purpose of the study was to assess impacts of IPH on 10-year atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease (ASCVD) risk scores in postmenopausal women. This study analyzed data from 428 postmenopausal women who underwent oral glucose tolerance test at a medical center. Ten-year ASCVD risk was evaluated by using Pooled Cohort Equations. Logistic regression analysis was performed to estimate odds ratios for having high 10-year ASCVD risk scores (≥5%) among these women. The subjects with IPH had higher systolic blood pressure and worse lipid profile than those without IPH. Ten-year ASCVD risk scores for postmenopausal women with IPH were calculated under 2 scenarios: the IPH women were considered non-diabetic, they were designated as patients with DM. The median ASCVD risk score of the participants with IPH increased significantly from 3.7% under scenario 1 to 7.1% under scenario 2. Approximately 20% women with IPH were re-categorized from risk category of <5% to ≥7.5% once they were identified as patients with DM (scenario 2). The results of logistic regression analyses showed that IPH was independently positively associated with 10-year ASCVD risk scores ≥5% under both scenarios. Postmenopausal women with IPH were characterized by unfavorable cardiovascular risk profile and high predicted 10-year ASCVD risk. Knowing the women's hidden DM status would significantly alter their risk categorization.

Key process features of personalized diet counselling in metabolic syndrome: secondary analysis of feasibility study in primary care. BMC Nutr 2022; 8:45.

Abstract
Background Personalized diet counselling, as part of lifestyle change programs for cardiometabolic risk conditions (combinations of prediabetes or type 2 diabetes, hypertension, dyslipidemia and high waist circumference) has been shown to reduce progression to type 2 diabetes overall. To identify key process of care measures that could be linked to changes in diet, we undertook a secondary analysis of a Canadian pre-post study of lifestyle treatment of metabolic syndrome (MetS). Diet counselling process measures were documented and association with diet quality changes after 3 months were assessed. Results of the primary study showed 19% reversal of MetS after 1 year. Methods Registered dietitians (RDs) reported on contact time, specific food behaviour goals (FBG), behaviour change techniques (BCT; adapted from the Michie CALO-RE taxonomy) and teaching resources at each contact. Diet quality was measured by 2005 Canadian Healthy Eating Index (HEI-C) and assessed for possible associations with individual BCT and FBG. Results Food behaviour goals associated with improved HEI-C at 3 months were: poultry more than red meat, increased plant protein, increased fish, increased olive oil, increased fruits and vegetables, eating breakfast, increased milk and alternatives, healthier fats, healthier snacks and increased nuts, with an adverse association noted for more use (> 2 times/ 3 months) of the balanced meal concept (F test; p < 0.001). Of 16 BCT, goal setting accounted for 15% of all BCT recorded, yet more goal setting (> 3 times/3 months) was associated with poorer HEI-C at 3 months (F test; p = 0.007). Only self-monitoring, feedback on performance and focus on past success were associated with improved HEI-C. Conclusions These results identify key aspects of process that impact diet quality. Documentation of both FBG and BCT is highly relevant in diet counselling and a summary diet quality score is a promising target for assessing short-term counselling success.

Abstract
BACKGROUND This study aimed to investigate whether the relationship of prediabetes with the risk of stroke and its subtypes differed among individuals with or without hypertension. METHODS This prospective study included 85,763 participants without diabetes or a history of stroke at the baseline from the Kailuan study (2006). Prediabetes was defined as a fasting plasma glucose concentration between 5.6 and 6.9 mmol/L. We performed multiplicative and additive interaction analyses to assess the interaction effect between prediabetes and hypertension on the risk of incident stroke. RESULTS We found that 47.13% of all participants had no prediabetes or hypertension, 11.45% had prediabetes alone, 30.12% had hypertension alone, and 11.31% had both prediabetes and hypertension at baseline. During a median follow-up period of 11.05 years, we documented 3972 events of incident stroke. We found that hypertension modified the relationship of prediabetes with total stroke and ischaemic stroke (p for interaction <0.05). After adjustment for potential confounders, prediabetes was significantly associated with the risk of total stroke (hazard ratio [HR] 1.33, 95% confidence interval [CI] 1.18-1.52], p for interaction = 0.0147) and ischaemic stroke (HR 1.33, [95% CI 1.16-1.54], p for interaction = 0.0413) among participants without hypertension, but not among participants with hypertension. However, no interaction effect of the association between prediabetes and hypertension was observed on the risk of haemorrhagic stroke. CONCLUSIONS Hypertension modified the association between prediabetes and risk of total and ischaemic stroke. Prediabetes was associated with an increased risk of total and ischaemic stroke only in the non-hypertension population.

Risk factors for incident cardiovascular events among adults in low- and middle-income countries: A systematic review and meta-analysis of prospective cohort studies. Prev Med 2022; 158:107036.

Abstract
The relative contributions of risk factors for cardiovascular events at a population level has received little attention in low- and middle-income countries (LMICs). We estimated the population attributable fraction (PAF) of risk factors associated with incident cardiovascular events in LMICs. We searched six databases for relevant articles, supplemented with a manual search of reference lists. Articles included in the meta-analyses were those based on prospective community-based cohorts and incorporating adjusted hazard ratios (HR) or relative risks with 95% confidence intervals (95% CI) for associations between risk factors and a composite cardiovascular and/or stroke endpoint. Pooled HRs and 95% CI were calculated using the random effects model. We assessed heterogeneity using the I2 test and study quality using the Newcastle-Ottawa Scale. We calculated the PAF of each associated risk factor. The protocol was registered in PROSPERO (CRD42019122741). We identified 18 cohorts from LMICs with 1,125,846 participants, 77,045 composite cardiovascular events and 42,216 strokes. Substantial proportions of incident cardiovascular events were attributable to hypertension (HR [95% CI], 2.23 [2.01-2.48], PAF = 28%); current smoking (1.44 [1.31-1.58], PAF = 10%); and diabetes mellitus (1.93 [1.67-2.23], PAF = 8%). Other risk factors identified included number of children, depression, bone mineral density, and air pollution. A substantial proportion of incident cardiovascular events were linked to traditional metabolic and behavioural modifiable risk factors. However, other novel risk factors also appear to contribute. Targeting of these established and novel risk factors has the potential to reduce the burden of CVD in LMICs.

J Diabetes Res 2022; 2022:1609267. [PMID: 35493611 PMCID: PMC9054436 DOI: 10.1155/2022/1609267] [Citation(s) in RCA: 9] [Impact Index Per Article: 4.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/08/2021] [Revised: 03/17/2022] [Accepted: 03/18/2022] [Indexed: 11/18/2022] Open
Abstract
OBJECTIVES To analyze diabetes mellitus (DM) mortality and years of life lost (YLL) in different years and different subgroups at the national and regional levels in China from 2005 to 2020. METHODS We estimated mortality and YLL of DM and its subcategories for 31 provinces in China during 2005-2020 using multisource data from the National Mortality Surveillance System (NMSS). RESULTS The age standardized mortality rate (ASMR) of DM increased from 12.18 per 100,000 in 2005 to 13.62 per 100,000 in 2020, which was an increase of 11.86%. The ASMR of type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) was much higher than that of type 1 diabetes mellitus (T1DM). The ASMR of T1DM remained stable, but the rate of T2DM increased, and the increase in male patients was higher than that in their female counterparts. At the same time, the burden of premature death was highest in the group ≥ 80 years old, and ASMR increased from 236.02 per 100,000 in 2005 to 358.86 per 100,000 in 2020. In 2005, the eastern region had the highest ASMR of DM, but the western region's ASMR grew faster and eventually became the highest in 2020. In addition, the YLL rate in the eastern region showed a downward trend; however, in the middle and western regions the YLL rate continued to rise, with that of the western region rapidly increasing. CONCLUSION A dramatically upward trend in DM deaths can be seen in China from 2005 to 2020. DM remains a chronic disease in urgent need of prevention and control, especially in the elderly and people in less-affluent provinces. We must put forward more targeted policies to effectively allocate medical resources and focus on high-risk groups to reduce the premature-mortality burden of DM and its subcategories.

Abstract
Studies on the association between serum magnesium level and prediabetes yielded inconsistent results. Therefore, the present meta-analysis was designed to examine the association between serum magnesium levels and prediabetes. Online databases including PubMed, Embase, Scopus and Google Scholar were searched up to October, 2020. A total of 10 studies that reported mean and standard deviation (SD) of magnesium levels in prediabetes and healthy control group were identified. Random effects models were used to pool weighted mean differences (WMDs) of serum magnesium levels. Pooled-analysis showed that subjects with prediabetes had significantly lower serum magnesium levels compared with healthy controls (WMD = - 0.07 mmol/L; 95% CI - 0.09, - 0.05 mmol/L, P < 0.001). A significant heterogeneity observed across included studies (I2 = 95.6%, P < 0.001). However, different subgroup analysis did not detect the potential source of observed heterogeneity. Withdrawal of each individual study had no effect on the overall results. The present meta-analysis showed that circulating magnesium levels in people with prediabetes were significantly lower than healthy controls, confirming that magnesium deficiency may play a role in development and progression of prediabetes. Further studies with larger sample size and robust design are warranted to confirm present results.

Abstract
Accurate measurement requires assessment of measurement equivalence/invariance (ME/I) to demonstrate that the tests/measurements perform equally well and measure the same underlying constructs across groups and over time. Using structural equation modeling, the measurement properties (stability and responsiveness) of intervention measures used in a study of metabolic syndrome (MetS) treatment in primary care offices, were assessed. The primary study (N = 293; mean age = 59 years) had achieved 19% reversal of MetS overall; yet neither diet quality nor aerobic capacity were correlated with declines in cardiovascular disease risk. Factor analytic methods were used to develop measurement models and factorial invariance were tested across three time points (baseline, 3-month, 12-month), sex (male/female), and diabetes status for the Canadian Healthy Eating Index (2005 HEI-C) and several fitness measures combined (percentile VO2 max from submaximal exercise, treadmill speed, curl-ups, push-ups). The model fit for the original HEI-C was poor and could account for the lack of associations in the primary study. A reduced HEI-C and a 4-item fitness model demonstrated excellent model fit and measurement equivalence across time, sex, and diabetes status. Increased use of factor analytic methods increases measurement precision, controls error, and improves ability to link interventions to expected clinical outcomes.

Abstract
Abstract
Cardiovascular disease is the leading cause of mortality in China. Primary prevention of cardiovascular disease with a focus on lifestyle intervention and risk factor control has been shown to effectively delay or prevent the occurrence of cardiovascular events. To promote a healthy lifestyle and enhance the detection, diagnosis, and treatment of cardiovascular risk factors such as hypertension, dyslipidemia, and diabetes, and to improve the overall capacity of primary prevention of cardiovascular disease, the Chinese Society of Cardiology of Chinese Medical Association has collaborated with multiple societies to summarize and evaluate the latest evidence with reference to relevant guidelines and subsequently to develop recommendations for primary cardiovascular disease prevention in Chinese adults. The guideline consists of 10 sections: introduction, methodology for developing the guideline, epidemiology of cardiovascular disease in China and challenges in primary prevention, general recommendations for primary prevention, assessment of cardiovascular risk, lifestyle intervention, blood pressure control, lipid management, management of type 2 diabetes, and use of aspirin. The promulgation and implementation of this guideline will play a key role in promoting the practice of primary prevention for cardiovascular disease in China.

Abstract
AIMS To analyze the sex-based differences in the prevalence of cardiovascular disease risk factors and outcomes in older patients with prediabetes using demographically matched national cohorts of hospitalized patients aged ≥65 years. METHODS We queried the 2007-2014 National Inpatient Database to identify older patients (>65 years) admitted with prediabetes using ICD-9 Clinical Modification codes. The older patients were then subcategorized based on sex. Comparative analyses of their baseline characteristics, the prevalence of cardiovascular(CV) disease comorbidities, hospitalization outcomes, and mortality rates were performed on propensity-matched cohorts for demographics. RESULTS A total of 1,197,978 older patients with prediabetes (599,223 males; mean age 75years and 598,755 females; mean age 76years) were identified. Higher admission rates were found commonly among older white males (84.1%) and females (81.7%). Prediabetic older males showed a higher frequency of cardiovascular comorbidities compared to females. Prediabetic older males had higher all-cause in-hospital mortality (4.2% vs. 3.6%, p < 0.001), acute myocardial infarction (7.0% vs. 4.7%, p < 0.001), arrhythmia (36.3% vs. 30.5%, p < 0.001), stroke (4.8% vs. 4.6%, p < 0.001), venous thromboembolism (3.3% vs. 3.0%, p < 0.001) and percutaneous coronary intervention (3.1% vs. 1.5%, p < 0.001) compared to females. CONCLUSIONS Our analysis revealed that among older patients hospitalized with prediabetes, males suffered worse in-hospital CV outcomes and survival rates compared to females.

The Association of Metabolic Syndrome with the development of cardiovascular disease among Kazakhs in remote rural areas of Xinjiang, China: a cohort study. BMC Public Health 2021; 21:216. [PMID: 33499822 PMCID: PMC7836449 DOI: 10.1186/s12889-021-10241-w] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/09/2020] [Accepted: 01/14/2021] [Indexed: 11/10/2022] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND Metabolic syndrome (MS) can promote the development of cardiovascular disease (CVD). The objective of this study was to examine the association of MS and its components with CVD, to further prevent and control CVD in Kazakhs. METHODS In the cohort study, a total of 2644 participants completed the baseline survey between April 2010 and December 2012.The follow-up survey was conducted from April 2016 to December 2016 and was completed by 2286 participants (86.46% follow-up rate). Cox regression was used to evaluate the association of each component and the number of combinations of MS components on the development of CVD. RESULTS A total of 278 CVD patients were enrolled from rural residents of Xinjiang. The average age of the MS and non-MS groups was 46.33 and 38.71 years, respectively. Independent associations with CVD were found for elevated blood pressure (BP) (adjusted hazard ratio (HR) [aHR] = 1.50,95%confidence interval [CI]: 1.08-2.08), elevated waist circumference (WC) (aHR = 1.60, 95%CI: 1.19-2.15), and elevated triglycerides (TG) (aHR = 1.44, 95%CI: 1.04-2.01). Participants with one to 5 MS components had an increased HR for developing CVD, from 1.82to 8.59 (P for trend < 0.001), compared with those with no MS components. The risk of developing CVD increased when TG and WC coexisted (aHR = 2.16, 95%CI: 1.54-3.04)), when TG and BP coexisted ((aHR = 1.92, 95%CI: 1.32-2.79), and when WC and BP coexisted (aHR = 1.93, 95%CI: 1.33-2.82)). However, no significant interactions were found between BP, WC, and TG. CONCLUSIONS Elevations of BP, WC, and TG were independent risk factors for CVD in Kazakhs. Control of these factors is important to prevent CVD in this population.

Abstract
Background It is unclear whether reversion from pre–diabetes mellitus to normoglycemia reduces cardiovascular disease (CVD) and all‐cause mortality risk in a Chinese population. We aimed to fill this research gap. Methods and Results The current study included 14 231 Chinese participants (mean age, 58.08 years) who were free from myocardial infarction and stroke at the time of survey participation (2006–2007 and 2008–2009). Participants were divided into 3 categories according to the 2‐year changes in pre–diabetes mellitus, defined by fasting plasma glucose: those with progression to diabetes mellitus, those with reversion from pre–diabetes mellitus to normoglycemia, and those with persistent pre–diabetes mellitus. Cox proportional hazards models were used to calculate hazard ratios (HRs) and their 95% CIs for CVD and all‐cause mortality. After a median follow‐up period of 8.75 years, a total of 879 CVD events (including 180 myocardial infarction events and 713 stroke events) and 941 all‐cause mortality events were recorded. After adjustment for confounding factors, reversion from pre–diabetes mellitus to normoglycemia was associated with decreased risks of CVD (HR, 0.78; 95% CI, 0.64–0.96), myocardial infarction (HR, 0.62; 95% CI, 0.40–0.97), stroke (HR, 0.79; 95% CI, 0.63–0.98), and all‐cause mortality (HR, 0.82; 95% CI, 0.68–0.99) compared with progression to diabetes mellitus. Conclusions Reversion from fasting plasma glucose–defined pre–diabetes mellitus to normoglycemia was associated with a reduction in the future risk of CVD and all‐cause mortality in a Chinese population.

Abstract
Background Current recommendations suggest prediabetes testing for overweight or obese adults with at least one cardiovascular risk factor. However, it is important to understand whether testing should be conducted in adults with hypertension regardless of their cardiovascular risk factors. Methods Participants from the 1999–2014 National Health and Nutrition Examination Surveys (NHANES) aged at least 18 years and without diabetes were enrolled in the study. Participants were classified according to their prediabetes and hypertension status and followed up to track cardiovascular and all-cause mortality until December 31, 2015. Cox proportional hazards models were built to estimate the hazard ratios (HRs). Results were stratified by age, sex, ethnicity, body mass index, and cardiovascular disease history. Results At baseline, 5,011 (14.72%) out of 34,047 participants had combined prediabetes and hypertension. Prediabetes alone was not associated with all-cause or cardiovascular mortality. Hypertension alone was significantly associated with all-cause (HR: 1.30) and cardiovascular (HR: 1.89) mortality, and combined prediabetes and hypertension were significantly associated with all-cause (HR: 1.37) and cardiovascular (HR: 2.11) mortality. Age and ethnicity were significantly associated with combined prediabetes and hypertension and all-cause mortality, where the association was stronger among people aged <60 years (HR: 1.94 vs. 1.22) and White (HR: 1.50 vs. 1.21). Conclusions Prediabetes might elevate the risk of all-cause and cardiovascular mortality among people with hypertension. This relationship is more evident among younger and White individuals.

Abstract
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE Ischemic stroke is associated with the metabolic syndrome (MetS) as diagnosed using dichotomous criteria; however, these criteria exhibit racial/ethnic discrepancies. Our goal was to assess whether ischemic stroke risk extended over the spectrum of worsening MetS severity using a sex- and race/ethnicity-specific MetS-severity Z score. METHODS We used Cox-proportional hazards models to assess the relationship between baseline MetS-Z score and incident ischemic stroke among participants of the Atherosclerosis Risk in Communities study and Jackson Heart Study who were free from diabetes, coronary heart disease or stroke at baseline, evaluating 13 141 white and black individuals with mean follow-up of 18.6 years. RESULTS We found that risk of ischemic stroke increased consistently with MetS severity, with a hazard ratio of 1.75 (95% CI, 1.35-2.27) for those >75th percentile compared to those <25th percentile. This risk was highest for white females (hazard ratio, 2.63 [CI, 1.70-4.07]) though without significant interaction by sex and race. Relationships between stroke and all the individual components of MetS were only noted for white females, though again without sex-race interactions. Hazard ratio's for systolic blood pressure and stroke were significant among all sex/racial subgroups. CONCLUSIONS Ischemic stroke risk increased over the spectrum of MetS severity in the absence of baseline diabetes mellitus, further implicating potential etiologic risks from processes underlying MetS. Individuals with elevated MetS severity should be counselled toward lifestyle modification to lower ischemic stroke risk.

Abstract
Metabolic syndrome is becoming more common worldwide. Studies suggest environmental pollution, including traffic noise, might be linked with metabolic syndrome. This study sought to evaluate how noise exposure is linked to the development of metabolic syndrome and its components in Taiwan. Using data from a cohort of 42,509 participants and Cox proportional hazards regression models, the effects of noise exposure on metabolic syndrome and its components were quantified. After adjustment for covariates (age, gender, body mass index, and physical activity), the hazard ratio for metabolic syndrome was 1.13 (95% CI: 1.04–1.22) for medium noise exposure and 1.24 (95% CI: 1.13–1.36) for high noise exposure. Noise exposure was also positively associated with all of metabolic syndrome’s components. This finding suggests noise exposure might contribute to metabolic syndrome and its components. Policies aiming to reduce noise pollution might reduce the risks of metabolic syndrome and its components.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Diabetes is a known independent risk factor for stroke. However, whether higher glucose levels (126-139.9 mg/dl) can increase the risk of stroke in people without diabetes is still unknown. Moreover, as a fluctuating parameter, long-term glucose levels may also be related to the risk of stroke outcome. It is important to explore the correlation between long-term average blood glucose, as well as its variability, and stroke. METHODS We used 40,975 clinical measurements of glucose levels and 367 measurements of glycated hemoglobin A1c levels from 12,321 participants without stroke to examine the relationship between glucose levels and the risk of stroke. Participants were from the Weitang Geriatric Diseases study, including 5,707 men and 6,614 women whose mean age at baseline was 60.8 years; 1,011 participants had diabetes, and 11,310 did not. We estimated the long-term average blood glucose level based on the multilevel Bayesian model and fit in Cox regression models, stratified according to diabetes status. RESULTS Over a median follow-up period of 5 years, stroke developed in 279 of the 12,321 participants (244 without diabetes and 35 with). For people with an average glucose level of 126-139.9 mg per deciliter, compared with 90-99.9 mg per deciliter, the adjusted hazard ratio (HR) for total stroke was 1.78 (95% confidence interval (CI), 1.16-2.75), and the HR for levels higher than 140 mg per deciliter was 1.89 (95% CI, 1.09-3.29). Among those without diabetes whose glucose level was higher than 140 mg per deciliter, compared with 90-99.9 mg per deciliter, the adjusted HRs for total stroke and fatal stroke were 3.66 (95% CI, 1.47-9.08) and 5 (95% CI, 1.77-14.15), respectively. For a glucose standard deviation level higher than 13.83 mg per deciliter, compared with that lower than 5.91 mg per deciliter, the adjusted HR for total stroke was 2.31 (95% CI, 1.19-4.48). CONCLUSIONS Our results suggest that higher average glucose levels (126-139.9 mg/dl) and variance may be risk factors for stroke, even among people without diabetes diagnosis.

A meta-analysis and trial sequential analysis. Ther Adv Neurol Disord 2019; 12:1756286419864830. [PMID: 31384308 PMCID: PMC6657129 DOI: 10.1177/1756286419864830] [Citation(s) in RCA: 15] [Impact Index Per Article: 3.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/06/2019] [Accepted: 06/30/2019] [Indexed: 12/15/2022] Open
Abstract
Background: It remains debatable whether statin increases the risk of intracerebral
hemorrhage (ICH) in poststroke patients. Methods: We systematically searched PubMed, EMBASE, and CENTRAL for randomized
controlled trials. Trial sequential analysis (TSA) was conducted to assess
the reliability and conclusiveness of the available evidence in the
meta-analysis. To evaluate the overall effectiveness, the net composite
endpoints were derived by totaling ischemic stroke, hemorrhagic stroke,
transient ischemic attack (TIA), myocardial infarction, and cardiovascular
mortality. Results: A total of 17 trials with 11,576 subjects with previous ischemic stroke, TIA,
or ICH were included, in which statin therapy increased the risk of
hemorrhagic stroke (risk ratio [RR], 1.42; 95% confidence interval [CI],
1.07–1.87), but reduced the risk of ischemic stroke (RR, 0.85; 95% CI,
0.75–0.95). For the net composite endpoints, statin therapy was associated
with a 17% risk reduction (95% CI, 12–21%; number needed to treat = 6). With
a control event rate 2% and RR increase 40%, the TSA suggested a conclusive
signal of an increased risk of hemorrhagic stroke in stroke survivors taking
statin. However, with the sensitivity analysis by changing assumptions, the
conclusions about hemorrhagic stroke risk were less robust. Conclusions: Statin therapy in poststroke patients increased the risk of hemorrhagic
stroke but effectively reduced ischemic stroke risk. Weighing the benefits
and potential harms, statin has an overall beneficial effect in patients
with previous stroke or TIA. However, more studies are required to
investigate the conclusiveness of the increased hemorrhagic stroke risk
revealed in our study.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To investigate the separate and combined associations of obesity and metabolic syndrome (MetS) with depression and the role of inflammation. METHOD Depression was assessed with the Patient Health Questionnaire-9 (PHQ-9) and was defined with a cutpoint of ≥10. Obesity was defined as body mass index (BMI) ≥30 kg/m2 from measured height and weight. MetS was defined based on the American Heart Association consensus definition. Participants were divided into four groups: healthy normal weight (MHN), metabolically healthy obese (MHO), metabolically unhealthy normal weight (MUN), and metabolic unhealthy obese (MUO). C-Reactive protein was assessed in a subsample. RESULTS A total of 18,025 subjects were included in the analysis. Participants with MUO had the highest prevalence of depression compared with the MHN group (14.8% vs. 6.8, p < .001). While both obesity and MetS were independently associated with depression, there was a significant interaction between the two (p < .001), indicating that the associations of obesity and MetS with depression were synergistic. After adjusting for baseline characteristics, compared with the MHN group, the MUO group had the highest odds of depression (odds ratio [OR] = 2.30, 95% CI [2.03, 2.61]), followed by MHO group (OR = 1.51, 95% CI [1.30, 1.74]) and the MUN group (OR = 1.39, 95% CI [1.18, 1.64]). The MUO group also showed the highest level of C-reactive protein, and the latter partially mediated the effect between MUO and depressive symptoms (20.5% of the total effect). CONCLUSION Both obesity and MetS are associated with depression independent of each other, but when present together, these conditions have a synergistic association with depression.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Current knowledge of the effects of prediabetes on the postsurgical outcomes of mortality and major adverse cardiovascular events (MACE) after coronary artery bypass graft surgery (CABG) is limited. The aim of this study is to evaluate the MACE and overall 1-year survival of patients with prediabetes who underwent elective isolated CABG. MATERIAL AND METHODS After a thorough analysis of CABG database since January 2016, 3741 patients were included. Patients were categorized as follows: diabetes mellitus type 2 (n = 2695), prediabetics (fasting blood sugar = 100-125 mg/dL and hemoglobin A1c (HbA1c) = 5.7%-6.4%) (n = 471), and nondiabetics (fasting blood sugar < 100 mg/dL and HbA1c < 5.7%) (n = 575). Primary end point (MACE) was the composite death, acute coronary syndrome, coronary revascularization, and cerebrovascular events after 1 month of surgery. Event-free survival was assessed and compared between groups over a median follow-up of 1 year. RESULTS In this retrospective cohort design, 3741 patients who underwent elective isolated CABG were evaluated. One-year overall survival percent was 100% for nondiabetic and prediabetic patients and 99.9% for diabetic patients (P value = 0.56). One-year event-free survival was 97.4% for nondiabetics, 98.1% for prediabetics, and 96.8% for diabetic patients (P value = 0.08). CONCLUSIONS One-year overall survival and also the event-free survival of prediabetic patients were similar to those without diabetes mellitus. Over the median follow-up of 1 year, descending trends shows the higher probability of adverse events in diabetic patients with longer follow-ups.

Abstract
AIMS Previous studies have proposed potential benefit of glycated hemoglobin (HbA1c) supplementary to fasting glucose in detecting metabolic syndrome (MetS). This study was to investigate an association of incident MetS with levels of HbA1c and fasting glucose. METHODS In a cohort of Korean Genome and Epidemiology Study, 5515 non-diabetic adults were grouped by the levels of baseline fasting glucose and HbA1c, and followed-up for 10 years. Using multivariate Cox proportional hazards assumption, hazards ratios (HRs) and 95% confidence interval (CI) for incident MetS (adjusted HRs [95% CI]) were calculated according to baseline fasting glucose and HbA1c. In individuals with normal fasting glucose, subgroup analysis was conducted to evaluate an association of HbA1c levels with MetS. RESULTS The risk for MetS significantly increased proportionally to fasting glucose ≥ 80 mg/dL and HbA1c ≥ 5.5%, compared with fating glucose < 80 mg/dL and HbA1c < 5.3%, respectively. In subgroups of normal fasting glucose, HbA1c ≥ 5.7% had the increased risk of MetS in fasting glucose < 80 mg/dL (5.7-5.9%: 1.41 [1.07-1.86] and 6.0-6.4%: 2.20 [1.40-2.92]), and HbA1c ≥ 5.5% had the increased risk of MetS in fasting glucose of 80-99 mg/dL (5.5-5.6%: 1.33 [1.08-1.64], 5.7-5.9%: 1.57 (1.27-1.93), and 6.0-6.4%: 2.37 [1.87-3.00]). CONCLUSIONS Both elevated fasting glucose and HbA1c were significantly associated with the increased risk of MetS even within normal range. HbA1c is effective in identifying high-risk group for MetS in individuals with normal fasting glucose.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The prevalence of prediabetes has been increasing significantly in recent years. Individuals with prediabetes have an increased risk of developing diabetes and cardiovascular diseases. The objectives of this study were to identify risk factors for prediabetes and their interactions among the elderly in rural communities of Hunan Province and to provide a scientific basis for prediabetes prevention. METHODS A case-control study was conducted to explore risk factors for prediabetes among the elderly in rural areas. The general sociodemographic information, lifestyle behaviours, and physiological results of elderly individuals with prediabetes and controls were collected by a questionnaire and laboratory testing. Conditional logistic regression was performed to identify the risk factors for prediabetes among the elderly, and additive interactions were used to analyse the interactions between risk factors. RESULTS A total of 425 elderly subjects with prediabetes were included in the case group, and 425 elderly subjects with normal plasma glucose levels were included in the control group. The main risk factors for prediabetes among the elderly in rural communities of Hunan Province were a family history of diabetes (OR = 2.48; 95% CI: 1.13, 5.46), physical inactivity (OR = 3.27; 95% CI: 1.95, 5.49), a lack of health literacy on diabetes prevention and control (OR = 3.26; 95% CI: 1.62, 6.55), hypertension (OR = 2.01; 95% CI: 1.38, 2.93), overweight (OR = 2.53; 95% CI: 1.67, 3.81), obesity (OR = 3.08; 95% CI: 1.48, 6.40), and a high waist-to-hip ratio (WHR) (OR = 2.26; 95% CI: 1.45, 3.51). Additive interactions for prediabetes were detected between a high WHR and physical inactivity, with a relative excess risk due to interaction (RERI) of 6.30 (95% CI: 0.42, 12.18), and between a high WHR and overweight or obesity, with an RERI of 2.92 (95% CI: 0.56, 5.29). CONCLUSION The independent risk factors for prediabetes are a family history of diabetes, physical inactivity, a lack of health literacy on diabetes prevention and control, hypertension, overweight or obesity, and a high WHR. A high WHR has additive interactions with physical inactivity and overweight or obesity for the risk of prediabetes. These findings have significant implications for prediabetes prevention among the elderly in rural areas.

Abstract
The incidence of metabolic syndrome is rapidly increasing worldwide, and adequate animal
models are crucial for studies on its pathogenesis and therapy. In the search of an
adequate experimental model to simulate human metabolic syndrome, the present study was
performed to examine the pharmacological response of
WBN/Kob-Leprfa (WBKDF) rats supplemented with a
fructose-rich diet (FRD) to liraglutide, a GLP-1 receptor agonist. Male WBKDF rats fed FRD
at 7 weeks of age were divided into 3 groups, and administered liraglutide (75, 300
µg/kg subcutaneously) or saline (control group), once daily for 4 weeks. All
rats in the control group became overweight, and developed hyperglycemia, hypertension and
dyslipidemia as they aged. The rats given liraglutide exhibited a dose-dependent reduction
in body weight, visceral fat content and food intake compared with control rats. In
addition, liraglutide suppressed the development of hyperglycemia, hypertension and
dyslipidemia. An intravenous glucose tolerance test revealed that liraglutide improved
glucose tolerance, insulin secretion and insulin resistance. On histological examination,
decreased hepatic fatty degeneration was observed in the liraglutide groups. The present
study demonstrated that liraglutide protected against obesity, hyperglycemia,
hypertension, dyslipidemia, and hepatic steatosis in WBKDF rats fed FRD, suggesting that
WBKDF rats fed FRD may be a useful model to investigate the etiology of human metabolic
syndrome.

Abstract
Metabolic syndrome (MetS) is a complex problem that contains risk factors related with obesity, cardiovascular diseases, and type-II diabetes. The incidence of MetS is increasing every year throughout the world.The aim of this study was to evaluate and compare physical activity levels, nutrition quality, and depression status of the individuals who are diagnosed with and without MetS.International Physical Activity Questionnaire (IPAQ), Mediterranean Diet Adherence Screener (MEDAS), Beck Depression Inventory (BDI) was used. In addition, biochemical analysis and anthropometric measurements were also taken.According to IPAQ, 81.1% of the MetS group is inactive, 6.8% is active, and 5.1% is highly active, whereas 22.3% of the non-MetS group is inactive, 46.2% is active, and 31.5% is highly active. MEDAS was found to be lower in the MetS group. BDI levels were also determined high in the MetS group.Sedentary lifestyle, depression, and unhealthy nutrition habits are among the significant factors for the development of MetS. The knowledge levels of the people should be increased by developing national physical activity and nutrition guidelines.

Abstract
Whether prediabetes mellitus (Pre-DM) alone or combined with hypertension is an independent risk factor for cardiovascular disease has not been fully clarified. This study aimed to further confirm whether the relation of Pre-DM to cardiovascular disease differs between individuals with or without hypertension. A total of 7121 consecutive patients with angina-like chest pain who received coronary angiography were evaluated and 4193 patients with angiography-proven stable, new-onset coronary artery disease were enrolled into the study. They were divided into 3 groups according to diabetes mellitus status and further stratified by hypertension. The severity of coronary artery disease was assessed by number of diseased vessels and Gensini score. All subjects were regularly followed up for the occurrence of the composite end points. Comparisons of coronary artery disease severity and outcomes were performed among these groups. During an average of 11 338 patient-years of follow-up, 434 (10.35%) cardiovascular events occurred. No significant difference was observed in coronary severity and composite end point events between Pre-DM and normal glucose regulation groups (both P>0.05). However, when hypertension was also incorporated as a stratifying factor, cardiovascular disease risk, assessed by coronary severity and clinical prognosis, was significantly elevated in Pre-DM plus hypertension and diabetes mellitus plus hypertension groups, compared with the reference group with normal glucose regulation and normal blood pressure (all P<0.05). The present study indicated that among patients with stable, new-onset coronary artery disease, the increased cardiovascular risk with Pre-DM is largely driven by the coexistence of hypertension rather than Pre-DM per se.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES Hyperglycemia on admission and diabetes mellitus type II are associated with unfavorable outcome in stroke patients. We studied whether impaired fasting glucose (IFG) is associated with unfavorable outcome in ischemic stroke patients treated with intravenous alteplase as well and if IFG is a stronger prognostic factor than hyperglycemia on admission. METHODS We studied 220 consecutive patients with ischemic stroke treated with intravenous alteplase. In all nondiabetic patients, fasting glucose was determined on day 2-5. IFG was defined as fasting glucose level of ≥ 5.6 mmol/L, hyperglycemia on admission as glucose levels ≥ 7.9 mmol/L. The primary effect measure was the adjusted common odds ratio (acOR) for a shift in the direction of worse outcome on the modified Rankin Scale at 3 months, estimated with ordinal logistic regression, and adjusted for common prognostic factors. RESULTS The fasting glucose levels were available in 194 and admission glucose levels in 215 patients. Sixty-three (32.5%) had IFG, 58 (27%) hyperglycemia on admission and 32 (14.6%) pre-existent diabetes. Patients with IFG showed a shift towards worse functional outcome compared with patients with normal fasting glucose levels (acOR 2.77; 95% CI 1.54-4.97), which was stronger than hyperglycemia on admission (acOR 1.75; 95% CI 0.91-3.4). CONCLUSIONS IFG is associated with unfavorable outcome after treatment with intravenous alteplase for acute ischemic stroke. IFG predicts unfavorable outcome better than hyperglycemia on admission.

Abstract
Aims: To investigate the association between circulating oxidized low-density lipoprotein (ox-LDL) levels and progression of subclinical atherosclerosis and to examine whether this link is independent of other low-density lipoprotein (LDL)-related parameters. Methods: Totally, 804 subjects who were free of cardiovascular disease at baseline completed risk factor surveys and carotid ultrasound measurements in 2002 and 2012. Modified Poisson regression was performed to examine the association between baseline serum ox-LDL levels and the 10-year risk of progression of carotid atherosclerosis which was defined as the development of at least one new plaque in a previously plaque-free carotid segment at re-examination. Results: The mean age of the subjects was 58.6 ± 7.7 years at baseline and 43.3% were men. A total of 504 (62.7%) subjects had carotid plaque progression at re-examination. Subjects in the intermediate and highest tertiles of ox-LDL had a significantly higher adjusted risk of atherosclerosis progression than those in the lowest tertile [relative risk (95% confidence interval) 1.17 (1.01–1.34) for the intermediate tertile and 1.23 (1.07–1.42) for the highest tertile]. This association was independent of baseline levels of LDL-C, total LDL particle number, and small LDL particle number. Conclusion: This study demonstrates that serum ox-LDL levels predict 10-year progression of subclinical atherosclerosis. Moreover, this effect is independent of the cholesterol content, the number, and the size of LDL particles.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To examine the change in fasting blood glucose (FBG) during repeated assessments over time and its potential impact on the risk of developing myocardial infarction (MI). RESEARCH DESIGN AND METHODS This prospective cohort study included 68,297 participants without diabetes (mean age 49 years) who were free of MI, stroke, and cancer prior to or in 2010 (baseline of the current analysis). FBG concentrations were measured in 2006, 2008, and 2010. The FBG trajectories during 2006-2010, the primary exposure of the current study, were identified by latent mixture modeling. Incident MI cases were confirmed via review of medical records by cardiologists. RESULTS We identified five discrete FBG trajectories according to FBG range and changing pattern over time: elevated-stable (n = 3,877), elevated-decreasing (n = 7,060), moderate-increasing (n = 10,298), moderate-stable (n = 40,352), and low-stable (n = 6,710). During 4 years of follow-up, we documented 283 incident MI cases. Relative to the moderate-stable pattern (FBG ranged from 4.9 to 5.1 mmol/L), adjusted hazard ratios (HRs) were 1.53 (95% CI 1.04, 2.26) for the elevated-stable pattern (FBG ranged from 6.1 to 6.3 mmol/L) and HR 0.61 (95% CI 0.38, 0.98) for the elevated-decreasing pattern (FBG decreased from 6.0 to 5.4 mmol/L), after adjustment for potential confounders such as age, sex, lifestyle factors, obesity, medical history, blood pressure, blood lipids, and C-reactive protein. Consistently, cumulative average and increasing rate of FBG during 2006-2010, but not a single baseline FBG, predicted future risk of MI. CONCLUSIONS We found that discrete FBG trajectories were significantly associated with subsequent risk of MI in individuals without diabetes. These observations suggest that long-term trajectories of FBG may be important for risk prediction of MI and possibly other macrovascular diseases.

Abstract
AIMS To investigate the association of serum ferritin levels and ferritin level changes with the 10-year risk of new-onset type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM). METHODS Among 2359 subjects without T2DM at baseline in 2002, 1956 subjects were re-examined in 2007, and 1660 subjects were invited to be re-examined in 2012. Serum ferritin (ng/ml) levels were measured by latex-enhanced turbidimetric immunoassay. Five-year serum ferritin changes were categorized into four groups using the median as the cut-off point. Multivariate logistic regression was performed to examine the independent association of serum ferritin levels and 5-year ferritin level changes with 10-year new-onset T2DM. RESULTS At the 10-year follow-up, 205 (12.3%) subjects had developed new-onset T2DM. After adjusting for traditional risk factors and high-sensitivity C-reactive protein, 10-year new-onset T2DM risk was significantly increased in subjects in the highest tertile of baseline serum ferritin levels [odds ratio (OR)=1.80, 95% confidence interval (CI): 1.17-2.79] and in subjects with high serum ferritin levels in both 2002 and 2007 (OR=1.54, 95% CI: 1.01-2.34). After adjusting for baseline fasting blood glucose, the effect was attenuated and became borderline or non-significant. CONCLUSIONS Serum ferritin levels and ferritin level changes were associated with 10-year new-onset T2DM risk in the Chinese population, whereas the independent effect awaits validation from studies with larger sample sizes.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES Newly diagnosed disturbed glucose metabolism is highly prevalent in patients with stroke. Limited data are available on their prognostic value on outcome after stroke. We aimed to assess the association of glucose in the prediabetic and diabetic range with unfavourable short-term outcome after stroke. MATERIALS AND METHODS We included 839 consecutive patients with ischemic stroke and 168 patients with intracerebral haemorrhage. In all nondiabetic patients, fasting glucose levels were determined on day 2-4. Prediabetic range was defined as fasting glucose of 5.6-6.9 mmol/L, diabetic range as ≥7.0 mmol/L, pre-existent diabetes as the use of anti-diabetic medication prior to admission. Outcome measures were poor functional outcome or death defined as modified Rankin Scale (mRS) score >2 and discharge not to home. The association of prediabetic range, diabetic range and pre-existent diabetes (versus normal glucose) with unfavourable outcome was expressed as odds ratios, estimated with multiple logistic regression, with adjustment for prognostic factors. RESULTS Compared with normal glucose, prediabetic range (aOR 1.8; 95%CI 1.1-2.8), diabetic range (aOR 2.5; 95%CI 1.3-4.9) and pre-existent diabetes (aOR 2.6; 95%CI 1.6-4.0) were associated with poor functional outcome or death. Patients in the prediabetic range (aOR 0.6; 95%CI 0.4-0.9), diabetic range (aOR 0.4; 95%CI 0.2-0.9) and pre-existent diabetes (aOR 0.6; 95%CI 0.4-0.9) were more likely not to be discharged to home. CONCLUSIONS Patients with glucose in the prediabetic and diabetic range have an increased risk of unfavourable short-term outcome after stroke. These findings illustrate the potential impact of early detection and treatment of these patients.

Abstract
IMPORTANCE In China, diabetes prevalence has increased substantially in recent decades, but there are no reliable estimates of the excess mortality currently associated with diabetes. OBJECTIVES To assess the proportional excess mortality associated with diabetes and estimate the diabetes-related absolute excess mortality in rural and urban areas of China. DESIGN, SETTING, AND PARTICIPANTS A 7-year nationwide prospective study of 512 869 adults aged 30 to 79 years from 10 (5 rural and 5 urban) regions in China, who were recruited between June 2004 and July 2008 and were followed up until January 2014. EXPOSURES Diabetes (previously diagnosed or detected by screening) recorded at baseline. MAIN OUTCOMES AND MEASURES All-cause and cause-specific mortality, collected through established death registries. Cox regression was used to estimate adjusted mortality rate ratio (RR) comparing individuals with diabetes vs those without diabetes at baseline. RESULTS Among the 512 869 participants, the mean (SD) age was 51.5 (10.7) years, 59% (n = 302 618) were women, and 5.9% (n = 30 280) had diabetes (4.1% in rural areas, 8.1% in urban areas, 5.8% of men, 6.1% of women, 3.1% had been previously diagnosed, and 2.8% were detected by screening). During 3.64 million person-years of follow-up, there were 24 909 deaths, including 3384 among individuals with diabetes. Compared with adults without diabetes, individuals with diabetes had a significantly increased risk of all-cause mortality (1373 vs 646 deaths per 100 000; adjusted RR, 2.00 [95% CI, 1.93-2.08]), which was higher in rural areas than in urban areas (rural RR, 2.17 [95% CI, 2.07-2.29]; urban RR, 1.83 [95% CI, 1.73-1.94]). Presence of diabetes was associated with increased mortality from ischemic heart disease (3287 deaths; RR, 2.40 [95% CI, 2.19-2.63]), stroke (4444 deaths; RR, 1.98 [95% CI, 1.81-2.17]), chronic liver disease (481 deaths; RR, 2.32 [95% CI, 1.76-3.06]), infections (425 deaths; RR, 2.29 [95% CI, 1.76-2.99]), and cancer of the liver (1325 deaths; RR, 1.54 [95% CI, 1.28-1.86]), pancreas (357 deaths; RR, 1.84 [95% CI, 1.35-2.51]), female breast (217 deaths; RR, 1.84 [95% CI, 1.24-2.74]), and female reproductive system (210 deaths; RR, 1.81 [95% CI, 1.20-2.74]). For chronic kidney disease (365 deaths), the RR was higher in rural areas (18.69 [95% CI, 14.22-24.57]) than in urban areas (6.83 [95% CI, 4.73-9.88]). Among those with diabetes, 10% of all deaths (16% rural; 4% urban) were due to definite or probable diabetic ketoacidosis or coma (408 deaths). CONCLUSIONS AND RELEVANCE Among adults in China, diabetes was associated with increased mortality from a range of cardiovascular and noncardiovascular diseases. Although diabetes was more common in urban areas, it was associated with greater excess mortality in rural areas.

Abstract
Background Diabetes is a risk factor for cardiovascular diseases (CVDs) and there are reports of increasing prevalence of prediabetes in Nigeria. This study therefore characterised CVDs risk factors in subjects with impaired fasting glucose (IFG) and diabetes. Methods Data from 4 population-based cross-sectional studies on 2447 apparently healthy individuals from 18 - 89 years were analysed. Anthropometric, blood pressure and biochemical parameters were collected and classified. Individuals with IFG (prediabetes) and diabetes were merged each for positive cases of dyslipidaemia, high blood pressure (HBP) or obesity. Optimal Discriminant and Hierarchical Optimal Classification Tree Analysis (HO-CTA) were employed. Results Overall prevalence of IFG and diabetes were 5.8% (CI: 4.9 – 6.7%) and 3.1% (CI: 2.4 – 3.8%), respectively. IFG co-morbidity with dyslipidaemia (5.0%; CI: 4.1 – 5.8%) was the highest followed by overweight/obese (3.1%; CI: 2.5 – 3.8%) and HBP (1.8%; CI: 1.3 – 2.4%). The predicted age of IFG or diabetes and their co-morbidity with other CVD risk factors were between 40 – 45 years. Elevated blood level of total cholesterol was the most predictive co-morbid risk factor among IFG and diabetes subjects. Hypertriglyceridaemia was an important risk factor among IFG-normocholesterolaemic-overweight/obese individuals. Conclusion The higher prevalence of co-morbidity of CVD risk factors with IFG than in diabetes plus the similar age of co-morbidity between IFG and diabetes highlights the need for risk assessment models for prediabetes and education of individuals at risk about factors that mitigate development of diabetes and CVDs.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Identification of the population at high risk of developing atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease (ASCVD) is critical for its prevention. The aim of the present study was to evaluate the use of fasting blood glucose (FBG) to predict ASCVD. METHODS In all, 18 610 participants, aged 35-74 years at enrollment, were included in this prospective study. Baseline information was collected using a standardized questionnaire, physical examinations, and laboratory tests. During follow-up, disease status and vital information were updated. Cox proportional hazards regression analysis was used to estimate associations, with normal FBG (70-99 mg/dL) as the reference group. Anthropometric measurements, socioeconomic status, and conventional cardiovascular risk factors were included in the multivariate-adjusted model. RESULTS After 7.8 years follow-up (145 223 person-years), there were 519 cases of ASCVD. The multivariate-adjusted hazard ratios (HR), with 95% confidence intervals (CI), for ASCVD in patients with low FBG (<70 mg/dL), impaired fasting glucose (IFG; 100-125 mg/dL), and diabetes (≥126 mg/dL, use of antidiabetic medication and/or self-report) were 1.35 (0.84, 2.15), 1.02 (0.81, 1.27), and 1.68 (1.26, 2.23), respectively. Although IFG was associated with the development of diabetes (multivariate-adjusted HR 3.67; 95% CI 3.20, 4.21), it was only associated with incident ASCVD in the univariate model (HR 1.52; 95% CI 1.23, 1.88). The association of diabetes with coronary heart disease was more pronounced than that with stroke. Gender and residential differences were also identified. CONCLUSIONS In the present study, IFG was associated with the development of diabetes but not incident ASCVD. Prevention strategies to reduce the development of diabetes in people with IFG are critical to improve cardiovascular health.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES To evaluate associations between different definitions of prediabetes and the risk of cardiovascular disease and all cause mortality. DESIGN Meta-analysis of prospective cohort studies. DATA SOURCES Electronic databases (PubMed, Embase, and Google Scholar). SELECTION CRITERIA Prospective cohort studies from general populations were included for meta-analysis if they reported adjusted relative risks with 95% confidence intervals for associations between the risk of composite cardiovascular disease, coronary heart disease, stroke, all cause mortality, and prediabetes. REVIEW METHODS Two authors independently reviewed and selected eligible studies, based on predetermined selection criteria. Prediabetes was defined as impaired fasting glucose according to the criteria of the American Diabetes Association (IFG-ADA; fasting glucose 5.6-6.9 mmol/L), the WHO expert group (IFG-WHO; fasting glucose 6.1-6.9 mmol/L), impaired glucose tolerance (2 hour plasma glucose concentration 7.8-11.0 mmol/L during an oral glucose tolerance test), or raised haemoglobin A1c (HbA1c) of 39-47 mmol/mol : (5.7-6.4%) according to ADA criteria or 42-47 mmol/mol (6.0-6.4%) according to the National Institute for Health and Care Excellence (NICE) guideline. The relative risks of all cause mortality and cardiovascular events were calculated and reported with 95% confidence intervals. RESULTS 53 prospective cohort studies with 1 611 339 individuals were included for analysis. The median follow-up duration was 9.5 years. Compared with normoglycaemia, prediabetes (impaired glucose tolerance or impaired fasting glucose according to IFG-ADA or IFG-WHO criteria) was associated with an increased risk of composite cardiovascular disease (relative risk 1.13, 1.26, and 1.30 for IFG-ADA, IFG-WHO, and impaired glucose tolerance, respectively), coronary heart disease (1.10, 1.18, and 1.20, respectively), stroke (1.06, 1.17, and 1.20, respectively), and all cause mortality (1.13, 1.13 and 1.32, respectively). Increases in HBA1c to 39-47 mmol/mol or 42-47 mmol/mol were both associated with an increased risk of composite cardiovascular disease (1.21 and 1.25, respectively) and coronary heart disease (1.15 and 1.28, respectively), but not with an increased risk of stroke and all cause mortality. CONCLUSIONS Prediabetes, defined as impaired glucose tolerance, impaired fasting glucose, or raised HbA1c, was associated with an increased risk of cardiovascular disease. The health risk might be increased in people with a fasting glucose concentration as low as 5.6 mmol/L or HbA1c of 39 mmol/mol.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Limited data are available on the impact of fasting glucose on outcome after intra-arterial treatment (IAT). We studied whether hyperglycemia on admission and impaired fasting glucose (IFG) are associated with unfavorable outcome after IAT in acute ischemic stroke. METHODS Patients were derived from the pretrial registry of the MR CLEAN-trial. Hyperglycemia on admission was defined as glucose>7.8mmol/L, IFG as fasting glucose>5.5mmol/L in the first week of admission. Primary effect measure was the adjusted common odds ratio (acOR) for a shift in the direction of worse outcome on the modified Rankin Scale at discharge, estimated with ordinal logistic regression, adjusted for common prognostic factors. RESULTS Of the 335 patients in which glucose on admission was available, 86 (26%) were hyperglycemic, 148 of the 240 patients with available fasting glucose levels (62%) had IFG. Median admission glucose was 6.8mmol/L (IQR 6-8). Increased admission glucose (acOR 1.2, 95%CI 1.1-1.3), hyperglycemia on admission (acOR 2.6, 95%CI 1.5-4.6) and IFG (acOR 2.8, 95%CI 1.4-5.6) were associated with worse functional outcome at discharge. CONCLUSION Increased glucose on admission and IFG in the first week after stroke onset are associated with unfavorable short-term outcome after IAT of acute ischemic stroke.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Prediabetes is associated with an increased risk of cardiovascular disease (CVD). While the association of impaired glucose tolerance with CVD has been shown in many studies, the relationship between impaired fasting glucose (IFG) and CVD remains unclear. OBJECTIVES The purpose of this study was to compare the coronary artery calcium (CAC) scores of participants with normal fasting glucose versus those with IFG, according to fasting plasma glucose (FPG) levels, and to assess whether differences in CAC scores were independent of important confounders. DESIGN Retrospective study. SETTING Health Promotion Center of the University Hospital (Gyeonggi-do, South Korea), during the period 2010-2014. PATIENTS AND METHODS Participants were enrolled from the general population who visited for a medical check-up. CAC was assessed in asymptomatic individuals by multidetector computed tomography. Anthropometric parameters and metabolic profiles were also recorded. Subjects were divided into four fasting glucose groups. Participants with a history of CVD or diabetes mellitus were excluded. MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES Correlation between FPG and CAC scores, CAC score categories, and association between CAC score and FPG categories. RESULTS Of 1112 participants, 346 (34.2%) had a CAC score > 0. FPG values in the IFG patients were positively but weakly correlated with CAC scores (r=0.099, P=.001). The incidence of CAC differed according to FPG level (P < .001) and in Kruskal-Wallis test the mean CAC score differed by FPG group (P < .001). After adjustment for other factors in a multiple logistic regression analysis, those subjects with FPG >=110 mg/dL had a significantly higher risk of CAC than did subjects with normal fasting glucose (110.

Association of prediabetes, defined by fasting glucose, HbA1c only, or combined criteria, with the risk of cardiovascular disease in Koreans. J Diabetes 2016; 8:657-66.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The aim of the present study was to compare the association between cardiovascular diseases (CVD) and prediabetes defined by either fasting plasma glucose (FPG), HbA1c, or their combination in a Korean population. METHODS In all, 76 434 South Koreans who voluntarily underwent a general health examination in the Health Screening & Promotion Center (Asan Medical Center) were analyzed after excluding patients with a previous history of CVD. Cardiovascular events and death due to CVD during a median follow-up period of 3.1 years (interquartile range 1.9-4.3 years) were identified from the Nationwide Health Insurance Claims Database and death certificates using ICD-10 codes. RESULTS Age- and sex-adjusted hazard ratios (HRs) for overall CVD events were significantly greater for subjects with prediabetes defined by FPG only (HR 1.19; 95% confidence interval [CI] 1.08-1.31), HbA1c only (HR 1.28; 95% CI 1.16-1.42), and combined criteria (HR 1.20; 95% CI 1.09-1.32) compared with the normoglycemic group. After adjusting for multiple conventional risk factors (e.g. hypertension, low-density lipoprotein cholesterol, high-density lipoprotein cholesterol, smoking status, family history of CVD, and BMI), the HRs for overall CVD were significantly increased only for participants with prediabetes defined by HbA1c. Age- and sex-adjusted HRs for major ischemic heart disease events were significantly increased for subjects with prediabetes defined either by HbA1c or combined criteria. Similarly, age- and sex-adjusted HRs for percutaneous coronary intervention were significantly higher for subjects with prediabetes defined by HbA1c only. For diabetes, the multivariate-adjusted HRs for all outcomes were significantly increased by all three criteria. CONCLUSIONS Adding an HbA1c criterion when defining prediabetes in Koreans can help identify individuals with an increased risk of CVD.

Abstract
BACKGROUND In China, diabetes prevalence is rising rapidly, but little is known about the associated risks and population burden of cardiovascular diseases. We assess associations of diabetes with major cardiovascular diseases and the relevance of diabetes duration and other modifiable risk factors to these associations. METHODS AND FINDINGS A nationwide prospective study recruited 512,891 men and women aged 30-79 y between 25 June 2004 and 15 July 2008 from ten diverse localities across China. During ~7 y of follow-up, 7,353 cardiovascular deaths and 25,451 non-fatal major cardiovascular events were recorded among 488,760 participants without prior cardiovascular disease at baseline. Cox regression yielded adjusted hazard ratios (HRs) comparing disease risks in individuals with diabetes to those without. Overall, 5.4% (n = 26,335) of participants had self-reported (2.7%) or screen-detected (2.7%) diabetes. Individuals with self-reported diabetes had an adjusted HR of 2.07 (95% CI 1.90-2.26) for cardiovascular mortality. There were significant excess risks of major coronary event (2.44, 95% CI 2.18-2.73), ischaemic stroke (1.68, 95% CI 1.60-1.77), and intracerebral haemorrhage (1.24, 95% CI 1.07-1.44). Screen-detected diabetes was also associated with significant, though more modest, excess cardiovascular risks, with corresponding HRs of 1.66 (95% CI 1.51-1.83), 1.62 (95% CI 1.40-1.86), 1.48 (95% CI 1.40-1.57), and 1.17 (95% CI 1.01-1.36), respectively. Misclassification of screen-detected diabetes may have caused these risk estimates to be underestimated, whilst lack of data on lipids may have resulted in residual confounding of diabetes-associated cardiovascular disease risks. Among individuals with diabetes, cardiovascular risk increased progressively with duration of diabetes and number of other presenting modifiable cardiovascular risk factors. Assuming a causal association, diabetes now accounts for ~0.5 million (489,676, 95% CI 335,777-681,202) cardiovascular deaths annually in China. CONCLUSIONS Among Chinese adults, diabetes is associated with significantly increased risks of major cardiovascular diseases. The increasing prevalence and younger age of onset of diabetes foreshadow greater diabetes-attributable disease burden in China.

Abstract
AIM Controlling cardiovascular (CV) risk factors is paramount in reducing atherosclerotic events. This 6-month prospective noninterventional trial assessed the safety and effectiveness of fixed-combination lisinopril-amlodipine plus rosuvastatin. PATIENTS & METHODS Patients with mild/moderate hypertension and hypercholesterolemia, at high-/very high-CV risk, received lisinopril-amlodipine (10/5, 20/5 or 20/10 mg/day) plus rosuvastatin (10 or 20 mg/day). Primary end points: systolic/diastolic blood pressure, low-density lipoprotein cholesterol. RESULTS At 6 months, 91% of 2241 evaluable patients achieved blood pressure target (<140/90 mmHg); low-density lipoprotein cholesterol targets, <3, <2.5 and 1.8 mmol/l, were achieved by 67, 49 and 40% of patients, respectively. Adverse events (4.4%) were mostly mild. CONCLUSION Lisinopril-amlodipine plus rosuvastatin was well tolerated and effective in patients with mild/moderate hypertension and hypercholesterolemia at high/very high CV risk.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES Obesity, diabetes, and heart disease-the most costly epidemics of our time-share a common but rarely treated mechanism: autonomic imbalance. We examined the contribution of autonomic imbalance, relative to selected demographic and biobehavioral risk factors, to the development of metabolic syndrome in a community sample for 12 years. METHODS We identified offspring cohort participants from the Framingham Heart Study who did not have metabolic syndrome at Examination 3 (1983-1987, baseline for this analysis) and whose metabolic syndrome status was assessed at the 4-, 8-, and 12-year follow-ups. We created logistic regression models, using baseline resting heart rate (RHR) and heart rate variability (HRV), to predict the odds of developing metabolic syndrome within 12 years, adjusting for age, sex, depressive symptoms, and smoking. HRV indices (standard deviation of the beat-to-beat interval [SDNN] and root mean square of the standard deviation) were calculated from 2-hour Holter monitor data. RESULTS Our sample consisted of 1143 participants (mean [SD] age = 46.6 (9.9) years, 57% female). One standard deviation of a decrease in SDNN increased the odds of developing metabolic syndrome within 12 years by 43% (95% confidence interval = 1.302-1.572, p < .001). Without HRV in the model, each increase in RHR of 10 beats/min increased the odds of developing metabolic syndrome by 24% (95% confidence interval = 1.094-1.426, p < .001). CONCLUSIONS In this community sample, low HRV by both measures (SDNN and root mean square of the standard deviation), high RHR, increased age, cigarette smoking, and being male significantly increased the odds of developing metabolic syndrome within 12 years of baseline.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE The purpose of the study was to examine whether individuals with diagnoses of schizophrenia were differentially adherent to their statin or angiotensin-converting enzyme inhibitor/angiotensin receptor blocker (ACEI/ARB) medications compared to individuals without psychiatric illness. METHOD Using electronic medical record data across 13 Mental Health Research Network sites, individuals with diagnoses of schizophrenia or schizoaffective disorder receiving two or more medication dispensings of a statin or an ACEI/ARB in 2011 (N=710) were identified and matched on age, sex and Medicare status to controls with no documented mental illness and two or more medication dispensings of a statin in 2011 (N=710). Medication adherence, and sociodemographic and clinical characteristics of the study population were assessed. RESULTS Multivariable models indicated that having a schizophrenia diagnosis was associated with increased odds of statin medication adherence; the odds ratio suggested a small effect. After adjustment for medication regimen, schizophrenia no longer showed an association with statin adherence. Having a schizophrenia diagnosis was not associated with ACEI/ARB medication adherence. CONCLUSIONS Compared to patients without any psychiatric illness, individuals with schizophrenia were marginally more likely to be adherent to their statin medications. Given that patterns of adherence to cardioprotective medications may be different from patterns of adherence to antipsychotic medications, improving adherence to the former may require unique intervention strategies.
