Bays HE. Obesity, dyslipidemia, and cardiovascular disease: A joint expert review from the Obesity Medicine Association and the National Lipid Association 2024. OBESITY PILLARS 2024; 10:100108. [PMID: 38706496 PMCID: PMC11066689 DOI: 10.1016/j.obpill.2024.100108] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/04/2024] [Revised: 03/06/2024] [Accepted: 03/07/2024] [Indexed: 05/07/2024]
Abstract
Background This joint expert review by the Obesity Medicine Association (OMA) and National Lipid Association (NLA) provides clinicians an overview of the pathophysiologic and clinical considerations regarding obesity, dyslipidemia, and cardiovascular disease (CVD) risk. Methods This joint expert review is based upon scientific evidence, clinical perspectives of the authors, and peer review by the OMA and NLA leadership. Results Among individuals with obesity, adipose tissue may store over 50% of the total body free cholesterol. Triglycerides may represent up to 99% of lipid species in adipose tissue. The potential for adipose tissue expansion accounts for the greatest weight variance among most individuals, with percent body fat ranging from less than 5% to over 60%. While population studies suggest a modest increase in blood low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C) levels with excess adiposity, the adiposopathic dyslipidemia pattern most often described with an increase in adiposity includes elevated triglycerides, reduced high density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL-C), increased non-HDL-C, elevated apolipoprotein B, increased LDL particle concentration, and increased small, dense LDL particles. Conclusions Obesity increases CVD risk, at least partially due to promotion of an adiposopathic, atherogenic lipid profile. Obesity also worsens other cardiometabolic risk factors. Among patients with obesity, interventions that reduce body weight and improve CVD outcomes are generally associated with improved lipid levels. Given the modest improvement in blood LDL-C with weight reduction in patients with overweight or obesity, early interventions to treat both excess adiposity and elevated atherogenic cholesterol (LDL-C and/or non-HDL-C) levels represent priorities in reducing the risk of CVD.

A meta-analysis of treatment for early-stage cervical cancer: open versus minimally invasive radical trachelectomy. BMC Pregnancy Childbirth 2023; 23:727. [PMID: 37838671 PMCID: PMC10576315 DOI: 10.1186/s12884-023-06036-z] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/06/2022] [Accepted: 09/28/2023] [Indexed: 10/16/2023] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND In previous systematic reviews, meta-analysis was lacking, resulting in the statistical difference between the data of different surgeries being impossible to judge. This meta-analysis aims to contrast the fertility results and cancer outcomes between open and minimally invasive surgery. METHOD We systematically searched databases including PubMed, Embase, Cochrane, and Scopus to collect studies that included open and minimally invasive radical trachelectomy. A random-effect model calculated the weighted average difference of each primary outcome via Review Manager V.5.4. RESULT Eight studies (1369 patients) were incorporated into our study. For fertility results, the Open group excels MIS group in pregnancies-Third trimester delivery [OR = 2.68; 95% CI (1.29, 5.59); P = 0.008]. Nevertheless, there is no statistical difference in clinical pregnancy, miscarriage, and second-trimester rate. Concerning cancer outcomes, no difference was detected in the overall survival [OR = 1.56; 95% CI (0.70, 3.45); P = 0.27] and recurrence [OR = 0.63; 95% CI (0.35, 1.12); P = 0.12]. Concerning surgery-related outcomes, the comprehensive effects revealed that the estimated blood loss of the Open group was higher than that of the MIS group[MD = 139.40; 95% CI (79.05, 199.75); P < 0.0001]. However, there was no difference between the postoperative complication rate in the two groups [OR = 1.52; 95% CI (0.89, 2.60); P = 0.12]. CONCLUSION This meta-analysis suggested that the fertility result of the Open group may be better than the MIS group, while the MIS group has better surgery-related outcomes. Owing to the poor cases of our study, a more robust conclusion requires more relevant articles in the future. SYSTEMATIC REVIEW REGISTRATION PROSPERO CRD42022352999.

Abstract
Cardiovascular diseases (CVD) continue to be the main cause of death in our country. Adequate control of lipid metabolism disorders is a key challenge in cardiovascular prevention that is far from being achieved in real clinical practice. There is a great heterogeneity in the reports of lipid metabolism from Spanish clinical laboratories, which may contribute to its poor control. For this reason, a working group of the main scientific societies involved in the care of patients at vascular risk, has prepared this document with a consensus proposal on the determination of the basic lipid profile in cardiovascular prevention, recommendations for its realization and unification of criteria to incorporate the lipid control goals appropriate to the vascular risk of the patients in the laboratory reports.

Abstract
Diabetes mellitus (DM) is strongly associated with an increased risk of atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease (ASCVD). Proprotein convertase subtilisin/kexin type 9 (PCSK9) was recently identified as an important regulator of circulating low-density lipoprotein-cholesterol (LDL-C) levels via degradation of the LDL receptor, proving to be a valid target to improve lipoprotein profiles and cardiovascular outcomes in patients with ASCVD. Beyond LDL receptor processing and cholesterol homeostasis, the PCSK9 protein has recently been verified to be associated with glucose metabolism. Importantly, clinical trials suggest that treatment with PCSK9 inhibitors for patients with DM is more effective. Hence, in this review, we summarize the current findings derived from experimental, preclinical, and clinical studies regarding the association between PCSK9 and glucose metabolism, including the relationship of PCSK9 genetic mutations to glucose metabolism and diabetes, the link between plasma PCSK9 concentrations and glucose metabolic parameters, the effects of glucose-lowering drugs on plasma PCSK9 levels and the impacts of PCSK9 inhibitors on cardiovascular outcomes of patients with DM. Clinically, exploring this field may improve our understanding regarding the roles of PCSK9 in glucose metabolism and may offer an in-depth interpretation of how PCSK9 inhibitors exert effects on the treatment of patients with DM.

Abstract
Cardiovascular diseases (CVD) continue to be the main cause of death in our country. Adequate control of lipid metabolism disorders is a key challenge in cardiovascular prevention that is far from being achieved in real clinical practice. There is a great heterogeneity in the reports of lipid metabolism from Spanish clinical laboratories, which may contribute to its poor control. For this reason, a working group of the main scientific societies involved in the care of patients at vascular risk, has prepared this document with a consensus proposal on the determination of the basic lipid profile in cardiovascular prevention, recommendations for its realization and unification of criteria to incorporate the lipid control goals appropriate to the vascular risk of the patients in the laboratory reports.

Abstract
Las enfermedades cardiovasculares (ECV) siguen siendo la principal causa de muerte en nuestro país. El control adecuado de las alteraciones del metabolismo lipídico es un reto clave en prevención cardiovascular que está lejos de alcanzarse en la práctica clínica real. Existe una gran heterogeneidad en los informes del metabolismo lipídico de los laboratorios clínicos españoles, lo que puede contribuir al mal control del mismo. Por ello, un grupo de trabajo de las principales sociedades científicas implicadas en la atención de los pacientes de riesgo vascular, hemos elaborado este documento con una propuesta básica de consenso sobre la determinación del perfil lipídico básico en prevención cardiovascular, recomendaciones para su realización y unificación de criterios para incorporar los objetivos de control lipídico adecuados al riesgo vascular de los pacientes en los informes de laboratorio.

Inclisiran-Safety and Effectiveness of Small Interfering RNA in Inhibition of PCSK-9. Pharmaceutics 2023; 15:pharmaceutics15020323.

Abstract
Dyslipidemia is listed among important cardiovascular disease risk factors. Treating lipid disorders is difficult, and achieving desirable levels of LDL-cholesterol (LDL-C) is essential in both the secondary and primary prevention of cardiovascular disease. For many years, statins became the basis of lipid-lowering therapy. Nevertheless, these drugs are often insufficient due to their side effects and restrictive criteria for achieving the recommended LDL-C values. Even the addition of other drugs, i.e., ezetimibe, does not help one achieve the target LDL-C. The discovery of proprotein convertase subtilisin/kexin type 9 (PCSK9) discovery has triggered intensive research on a new class of protein-based drugs. The protein PCSK9 is located mainly in hepatocytes and is involved in the metabolism of LDL-C. In the beginning, antibodies against the PCSK9 protein, such as evolocumab, were invented. The next step was inclisiran. Inclisiran is a small interfering RNA (siRNA) that inhibits the expression of PCSK9 by binding specifically to the mRNA precursor of PCSK9 protein and causing its degradation. It has been noticed in recent years that siRNA is a powerful tool for biomedical research and drug discovery. The purpose of this work is to summarize the molecular mechanisms, pharmacokinetics, pharmacodynamics of inclisiran and to review the latest research.

Abstract
Since lipid abnormalities tend to progress from childhood to adulthood, it is necessary to early identify and treat children and adolescents with dyslipidemia. This is important in order to reduce the cardiovascular risk, delay the development of fatty streaks, slow the progression of atherosclerosis and reverse atherosclerotic plaques. Together with therapeutic lifestyle changes, statins are the most common lipid-lowering drugs. By inhibiting the endogenous cholesterol synthesis in the liver, statins increase the catabolism of LDL-C, reduce VLDL-C, IDL-C and TG and modestly increase HDL-C. Regardless of their lipid-lowering effect, statins have also pleiotropic effects. Statins have increasingly been prescribed in children and adolescents and mounting evidence suggests their beneficial role. As with adults, in children, several studies have demonstrated that statin therapy is efficient at lowering lipid levels and reducing CIMT progression and cumulative estimated atherosclerotic burden in children. Statins are generally very well-tolerated in both adults and children and adverse events are quite uncommon. When evaluating the need and the timing for statin treatment, the presence of several factors (secondary causes, familial history, additional risk factors) should also be considered. Before initiating statins, it is imperative for clinical practitioners to consult patients and families and, as with any new medication therapy, to monitor patients taking statins. Despite being safe and effective, many children with lipid disorders are not on statin therapy and are not receiving the full potential benefit of adequate lipid-lowering therapies. It is therefore important that clinicians become familiar with statins.

Abstract
Background This "Anti-Obesity Medications and Investigational Agents: An Obesity Medicine Association Clinical Practice Statement 2022" is intended to provide clinicians an overview of Food and Drug Administration (FDA) approved anti-obesity medications and investigational anti-obesity agents in development. Methods The scientific information for this Clinical Practice Statement (CPS) is based upon published scientific citations, clinical perspectives of OMA authors, and peer review by the Obesity Medicine Association leadership. Results This CPS describes pharmacokinetic principles applicable to those with obesity, and discusses the efficacy and safety of anti-obesity medications [e.g., phentermine, semaglutide, liraglutide, phentermine/topiramate, naltrexone/bupropion, and orlistat, as well as non-systemic superabsorbent oral hydrogel particles (which is technically classified as a medical device)]. Other medications discussed include setmelanotide, metreleptin, and lisdexamfetamine dimesylate. Data regarding the use of combination anti-obesity pharmacotherapy, as well as use of anti-obesity pharmacotherapy after bariatric surgery are limited; however, published data support such approaches. Finally, this CPS discusses investigational anti-obesity medications, with an emphasis on the mechanisms of action and summary of available clinical trial data regarding tirzepatide. Conclusion This "Anti-Obesity Medications and Investigational Agents: An Obesity Medicine Association Clinical Practice Statement 2022" is one of a series of OMA CPSs designed to assist clinicians in the care of patients with pre-obesity/obesity.

Clinical Utility of Amplification Refractory Mutation System-Based PCR and Mutation-Specific PCR for Precise and Rapid Genotyping of Angiotensin-Converting Enzyme 1 (ACE1-rs4646996 D>I) and Angiotensin-Converting Enzyme 2 (ACE2-rs4240157T>C) Gene Variations in Coronary Artery Disease and Their Strong Association with Its Disease Susceptibility and Progression. Diagnostics (Basel) 2022; 12:diagnostics12061321. [PMID: 35741131 PMCID: PMC9222124 DOI: 10.3390/diagnostics12061321] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/26/2022] [Revised: 05/09/2022] [Accepted: 05/17/2022] [Indexed: 11/30/2022] Open
Abstract
Background: Experimental clinical and research studies demonstrated that the renin−angiotensin system (RAS) affects the pathogenesis of atherosclerosis and the prognosis of coronary heart disease (CHD). The results show that ACE2 (angiotensin I-converting enzyme 2) might act as a protective protein for cardiovascular diseases; however, only a few studies in human populations have been carried out. The aim of this study was to develop, optimize, and validate a direct T-ARMS-based PCR assay for the precise and rapid genotyping of ACE1-rs4646996 D>I and ACE2-rs4240157T>C and study their association with coronary artery disease susceptibility and progression. Methodology: This study included 149 consecutive coronary artery disease patients and 150 healthy controls. We utilized T-ARMS for the precise and rapid genotyping of ACE2-rs4240157; rs4646994. Results: Our results indicated that the ACE1-rs4646996 D>I genotypes observed between CAD cases and controls were statistically significant (p < 0.008) and, similarly, the ACE2-rs4240157T>C genotypes observed were significant (p < 0.0001). Moreover, the frequency of the D allele (ACE1-D>I) and C allele (ACE2-rs4240157T>C) was found to be higher among CAD patients than the HC. Our results indicated that in the codominant model, the ACE2-ID genotype was strongly associated with increased CAD susceptibility in a codominant model with an OR of 2.37, (95%) CI = (1.023−5.504), and p < 0.04. Similarly, the ACE2-DD genotype was strongly associated with an increased CAD susceptibility with an OR of 3.48, (95%) CI = (1.49 to 8.117), and p < 0.003. Similarly, in allelic comparison, the D allele was strongly associated with CAD susceptibility with an OR of 1.59, (95%) CI = (1.12−2.24), and p < 0.003. Our results revealed that there was a significant correlation between ACE2-I/D genotypes and hypertension, T2D, and obesity (p < 0.05). The results of ACE2 rs4240157 genotyping indicated a strong association in the codominant model with an increased CAD susceptibility with an OR of 3.62, (95%) CI = (2.027 to 6.481), and p < 0.0001. Similarly, in a dominant inheritance model, a strong association is observed between the ACE2 rs4240157 (CT+CC) genotype with an OR of 6.34, (95%) CI = (3.741 to 10.749), and p < 0.0001. In allelic comparison, the T allele was strongly associated with CAD susceptibility with an OR of 5.56, (95% CI = (3.56 to 7.17), and p < 0.0001. Similarly, our results revealed that there was a significant association of the ACE2-rs4240157T>C genotypes with Triglycerides (mg/dL), HDL-C (mg/dL), total Cholesterol (mg/dL), and C-reactive protein (mg/L) in CAD. Conclusion: It was indicated that the ARMS technique and MS-PCR assay proved to be fast, accurate, and reliable for ACE2-rs4240157T>C and ACE1-rs4646996 D>I, respectively, and can be used as a potential molecular tool in the diagnosis of genetic diseases in undeveloped and developing countries—where there might be a shortage of medical resources and supplies. ACE1-I>D genotypes were strongly associated with T2D, hypertension, and obesity (p < 0.002). Besides the ACE2-rs4240157 CT heterozygosity genotype, the T allele was strongly associated with CAD susceptibility. Future longitudinal studies in different ethnic populations with larger sample sizes are recommended to validate these findings

Effects of dapagliflozin in the progression of atherosclerosis in patients with type 2 diabetes: a meta-analysis of randomized controlled trials. Diabetol Metab Syndr 2022; 14:41. [PMID: 35272683 PMCID: PMC8908556 DOI: 10.1186/s13098-022-00810-3] [Citation(s) in RCA: 4] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/20/2022] [Accepted: 02/23/2022] [Indexed: 02/07/2023] Open
Abstract
AIMS At present, an increasing number of studies are trying to determine whether dapagliflozin has a significant effect on the occurrence and development of atherosclerosis in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM), but there is no consensus. In addition, the former meta-analyses, relying on only a few previous studies and a minimal number of research indicators, have not been able to draw sufficient conclusions simultaneously. Consequently, we conducted a meta-analysis to evaluate the effectiveness of dapagliflozin in the occurrence and development of atherosclerosis in patients with T2DM. METHODS We searched electronic databases (PubMed, Embase, Cochrane, and Scopus) and reference lists in relevant papers for articles published in 2011-2021. We selected studies that evaluated the effects of dapagliflozin on the risk factors related to the occurrence or development of atherosclerosis in patients with T2DM. A fixed or random-effect model calculated the weighted average difference of dapagliflozin on efficacy, and the factors affecting heterogeneity were determined by Meta-regression analysis. RESULTS Twelve randomized controlled trials (18,758 patients) were incorporated in our meta-analysis. In contrast with placebo, dapagliflozin was associated with a significantly increase in high density lipoprotein-cholesterol (HDL-C) [MD = 1.39; 95% CI (0.77, 2.01); P < 0.0001], Δflow-mediated vasodilatation (ΔFMD) [MD = 1.22; 95% CI (0.38, 2.06); P = 0.005] and estimated Glomerular Filtration Rate(eGFR) [MD = 1.94; 95% CI (1.38, 2.51); P < 0.00001]. Furthermore, dapagliflozin had a tremendous advantage in controlling triglycerides (TG) in subgroups whose baseline eGFR < 83 ml/min/1.73m2 [MD = - 10.38; 95% CI (- 13.15, - 7.60); P < 0.00001], systolic blood pressure (SBP) [MD = - 2.82; 95% CI (- 3.22, - 2.42); P < 0.00001], HbA1c, BMI, body weight and waist circumference. However, dapagliflozin has an adverse effect on increasing total cholesterol (TC) and low-density lipoprotein-cholesterol (LDL-C). Besides, there were no significant changes in other indicators, including adiponectin and C-peptide immunoreactivity. CONCLUSIONS Our pooled analysis suggested that dapagliflozin has a terrifically better influence over HDL-C, ΔFMD, and eGFR, and it concurrently had a tremendous advantage in controlling TG, SBP, DBP, HbA1c, BMI, body weight, and waist circumference, but it also harms increasing TC and LDL-C. Furthermore, this study found that the effect of dapagliflozin that decreases plasma levels of TG is only apparent in subgroups of baseline eGFR < 83 ml/min/1.73m2, while the subgroup of baseline eGFR ≥ 83 ml/min/1.73m2 does not. Finally, the above results summarize that dapagliflozin could be a therapeutic option for the progression of atherosclerosis in patients with T2DM.

Abstract
Background: Proprotein convertase subtilisin/kexin type 9 (PCSK9) is an enzyme in the family of proprotein convertases implicated in lipid metabolism and is a significant genetic risk factor in cardiovascular diseases among various populations. Aim of the Study: This study explored the correlation between the alleles of the rs505151 (E670G) locus of the PCSK9 gene and its expression levels with coronary artery disease (CAD) risk in Egyptian patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM). Subjects and Methods: A case-control study was performed on 112 lean subjects compared to 100 T2DM patients without CAD and 84 T2DM patients with CAD to investigate the relationships among PCSK9 expression levels, the E670G (rs505151) gene variant, lipid concentrations, and CAD risk in an Egyptian diabetic population. A restriction fragment length polymorphism-polymerase chain reaction (PCR) assay was used to assess the gene polymorphism, and PCSK9 mRNA expression was determined by quantitative real-time PCR. Results: The prevalence of the E670G (rs505151) AG genotype in diabetics with CAD was significantly greater than the other two groups. The PCSK9 gene expression levels in diabetics with CAD were significantly greater than the other two groups. G allele carriers (AG+GG) had a higher relative PCSK9 expression than A allele carriers. Conclusion: PCSK9 relative expression levels and the E670G (rs505151) AG genotype are CAD risk factors among Egyptian diabetics and are linked positively to the atherogenic index of plasma.

Abstract
Despite great progress in the management of atherosclerosis (AS), its subsequent cardiovascular disease (CVD) remains the leading cause of morbidity and mortality. This is probably due to insufficient risk detection using routine lipid testing; thus, there is a need for more effective approaches relying on new biomarkers. Quantitative nuclear magnetic resonance (qNMR) metabolomics is able to phenotype holistic metabolic changes, with a unique advantage in regard to quantifying lipid-protein complexes. The rapidly increasing literature has indicated that qNMR-based lipoprotein particle number, particle size, lipid components, and some molecular metabolites can provide deeper insight into atherogenic diseases and could serve as novel promising determinants. Therefore, this article aims to offer an updated review of the qNMR biomarkers of AS and CVD found in epidemiological studies, with a special emphasis on lipoprotein-related parameters. As more researches are performed, we can envision more qNMR metabolite biomarkers being successfully translated into daily clinical practice to enhance the prevention, detection and intervention of atherosclerotic diseases.

Abstract
To evaluate the efficacy and safety of liraglutide in patients with Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus (T2DM) complicated with Coronary Artery Disease (CAD), we searched PubMed, Cochrane Library, Embase, China National Knowledge Infrastructure (CNKI), Chinese VIP Information (VIP), Wanfang Database and Chinese Biomedical Literature database (CBM) for relevant randomized controlled trials (RCTs) from inception to 7 October 2020. A total of 18 RCTs including 1557 patients with T2DM complicated with CAD were included. Meta-analysis revealed liraglutide reduced hemoglobin A1c (HbA1c) (WMD = -0.67; 95% CI[-0.94 to -0.39]; P < 0.00001), fasting plasma glucose (FPG) (WMD = -0.80; 95% CI[-1.06 to -0.54]; P < 0.00001) and 2 h plasma glucose (2hPG) (WMD = -1.64; 95% CI[-2.12 to -1.16]; P<0.00001); improved left ventricular ejection fraction(LVEF) (WMD = 4.79; 95% CI[4.08-5.51]; P < 0.00001), left ventricular end-diastolic diameter (LVEDD) (WMD = -5.70; 95% CI[-6.67 to -4.72]; P<0.00001), E/A (WMD = 0.13; 95% CI[0.11-0.14]; P < 0.00001) and left ventricular posterior wall thickness (LVPWT) (WMD = -1.86; 95% CI[-2.16 to -1.55]; P < 0.00001); reduced total cholesterol (TC) (WMD = -0.48; 95% CI[-0.56 to -0.39]; P < 0.00001), triglycerides (TG) (WMD = -0.42; 95% CI[-0.59 to -0.26]; P < 0.00001), low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C) (WMD = -0.41; 95% CI[-0.55 to -0.26]; P < 0.00001), and increased high-density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL-C) (WMD = -0.19; 95% CI[0.13-0.24]; P = 0.0005). As for safety assessment, liraglutide did not increase the incidence of hypoglycemia (OR = 0.75, 95% CI[0.32-1.77], P = 0.51) and gastrointestinal (OR = 1.15, 95% CI[0.72-1.85], P = 0.55) events. Consequently, liraglutide had favorable effects on blood glucose, cardiac function, lipid profile and an acceptable safety profile.

Abstract
Recent genetic data can offer important insights into the roles of lipoprotein subfractions and particle sizes in preventing coronary artery disease (CAD), as previous observational studies have often reported conflicting results. We used the LD score regression to estimate the genetic correlation of 77 subfraction traits with traditional lipid profile and identified 27 traits that may represent distinct genetic mechanisms. We then used Mendelian randomization (MR) to estimate the causal effect of these traits on the risk of CAD. In univariable MR, the concentration and content of medium high-density lipoprotein (HDL) particles showed a protective effect against CAD. The effect was not attenuated in multivariable analyses. Multivariable MR analyses also found that small HDL particles and smaller mean HDL particle diameter may have a protective effect. We identified four genetic markers for HDL particle size and CAD. Further investigations are needed to fully understand the role of HDL particle size.

Abstract
AIMS To investigate whether testosterone therapy (TTh) in men with hypogonadism and type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) improves glycaemic control and insulin sensitivity, and results in remission of T2DM. MATERIAL AND METHODS A total of 356 men who had total testosterone levels ≤12.1 nmol/L (350 ng/dL) and symptoms of hypogonadism were included in the study and followed up for 11 years. All patients received standard diabetes treatment and 178 patients additionally received parenteral testosterone undecanoate 1000 mg every 12 weeks following an initial 6-week interval. A control group comprised 178 hypogonadal patients who opted not to receive TTh. RESULTS Patients with hypogonadism and T2DM treated with testosterone had significant progressive and sustained reductions in fasting glucose, glycated haemoglobin (HbA1c) and fasting insulin over the treatment period. In the control group, fasting glucose, HbA1c and fasting insulin increased. Among the patients treated with testosterone 34.3% achieved remission of their diabetes and 46.6% of patients achieved normal glucose regulation. Of the testosterone-treated group, 83.1% reached the HbA1c target of 47.5 mmol/mol (6.5%) and 90% achieved the HbA1c target of 53.0 mmol/mol (7%). In contrast, no remission of diabetes or reductions in glucose or HbA1c levels were noted in the control group. There were fewer deaths, myocardial infarctions, strokes and diabetic complications in the testosterone-treated group. CONCLUSIONS Long-term TTh in men with T2DM and hypogonadism improves glycaemic control and insulin resistance. Remission of diabetes occurred in one-third of the patients. TTh is potentially a novel additional therapy for men with T2DM and hypogonadism.

Abstract
PURPOSE OF REVIEW Cardiovascular (CV) disease is a major cause of mortality in type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2D). Dyslipidemia is prevalent in children with T2D and is a known risk factor for CVD. In this review, we critically examine the epidemiology, pathophysiology, and recommendations for dyslipidemia management in pediatric T2D. RECENT FINDINGS Dyslipidemia is multifactorial and related to poor glycemic control, insulin resistance, inflammation, and genetic susceptibility. Current guidelines recommend lipid screening after achieving glycemic control and annually thereafter. The desired lipid goals are low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C) < 100 mg/dL, high-density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL-C) > 35 mg/dL, and triglycerides (TG) < 150 mg/dL. If LDL-C remains > 130 mg/dL after 6 months, statins are recommended with a treatment goal of < 100 mg/dL. If fasting TG are > 400 mg/dL or non-fasting TG are > 1000 mg/dL, fibrates are recommended. Although abnormal levels of atherogenic TG-rich lipoproteins, apolipoprotein B, and non-HDL-C are commonly present in pediatric T2D, their measurement is not currently considered in risk assessment or management.

Abstract
Aim. To conduct a cascade screening and to assess its effectiveness in the diagnosis of familial hypercholesterolemia (FH) in children.Material and methods. The study was conducted from January 2017 to August 2018 on the basis of the City Clinical Hospital № 7 and the Children’s Republican Clinical Hospital (Kazan, the Republic of Tatarstan). It consisted of identifying index cases — primary patients with FH with further examination of first- and second-degree relatives <18 years old. In adults, the diagnosis was established according to Dutch Lipid Clinic Network (DLCN) criteria): FH was diagnosed with a score of ≥6. In children and adolescents <6 years of age, the Simon Broome Registry criteria were used.Results. During this period, 2542 case histories of patients with cardiovascular diseases were analyzed, of which 1220 people with a total cholesterol >5 mmol/L were selected. Next, a targeted screening was carried out aimed at the diagnosis of FH, as a result of which 61 index patients were identified. At the next stage, as a part of cascade screening, 87 first- and second-degree relatives <18 years old were examined. In 43 (49,4%) children, heterozygous HF was diagnosed, of which in 4 patients the disease was detected by re-examination after 1 year.Conclusion. Cascade screening is a necessary and effective method for the diagnosis of АР in first- and second-degree relatives <18 years old. All children of the index patients should be monitored or genetic testing necessary to rule out FH. Today, it is important to increase awareness among clinicians about the diagnosis of FH in adults and children.

Abstract
Background Both immediate and deferred switching from a ritonavir-boosted protease inhibitor (PI/r)-based regimen to a dolutegravir (DTG)-based regimen may improve lipid profile. Methods European Network for AIDS Treatment 022 Study (NEAT022) is a European, open-label, randomized trial. Human immunodeficiency virus (HIV)-infected adults aged ≥50 years or with a Framingham score ≥10% were eligible if HIV RNA was <50 copies/mL. Patients were randomized to switch from PI/r to DTG immediately (DTG-I) or to deferred switch at week 48 (DTG-D). Week 96 endpoints were proportion of patients with HIV RNA <50 copies/mL, percentage change of lipid fractions, and adverse events (AEs). Results Four hundred fifteen patients were randomized: 205 to DTG-I and 210 DTG-D. The primary objective of noninferiority at week 48 was met. At week 96, treatment success rate was 92.2% in the DTG-I arm and 87% in the DTG-D arm (difference, 5.2% [95% confidence interval, -.6% to 11%]). There were 5 virological failures in the DTG-I arm and 5 (1 while on PI/r and 4 after switching to DTG) in the DTG-D arm without selection of resistance mutations. There was no significant difference in terms of grade 3 or 4 AEs or treatment-modifying AEs. Total cholesterol and other lipid fractions (except high-density lipoprotein) significantly (P < .001) improved both after immediate and deferred switching to DTG overall and regardless of baseline PI/r strata. Conclusions Both immediate and deferred switching from a PI/r to a DTG regimen in virologically suppressed HIV-infected patients ≥50 years old or with a Framingham score ≥10% was highly efficacious and well tolerated, and improved the lipid profile.

Abstract
The proprotein convertase subtilisin/kexin type 9 (PCSK9) acts via a canonical pathway to regulate circulating low-density lipoprotein-cholesterol (LDL-C) via degradation of the LDL receptor (LDLR) on the liver cell surface. Published research has shown that PCSK9 is involved in atherosclerosis via a variety of non-classical mechanisms that involve lysosomal, inflammatory, apoptotic, mitochondrial, and immune pathways. In this review paper, we summarized these additional mechanisms and described how anti-PCSK9 therapy exerts effects through these mechanisms. These additional pathways further illustrate the regulatory role of PCSK9 in atherosclerosis and offer an in-depth interpretation of how the PCSK9 inhibitor exerts effects on the treatment of atherosclerosis.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Familial hypercholesterolemia (FH) is an autosomal dominant disease characterized by an increased LDL-cholesterol (LDLc) serum concentration and premature cardiovascular disease. Screening of small populations where at least one homozygous (HoFH) patient has been identified may be a proper approach for detecting FH patients. Previously, we reported an HoFH patient carrying the mutation p.Asp360His LDLR, who was born in the Mexican community El Triunfo (Quimixtlan, Puebla). AIM OF THE STUDY To identify patients with familial hypercholesterolemia in the community El Triunfo and to describe their clinical and biochemical characteristics. METHODS We studied 308 individuals by quantifying lipid levels and by DNA sequencing. RESULTS Sixteen of 308 individuals presented an LDLc level >170 mg/dL and all of them turned out to be heterozygous for the LDLR p.Asp360His variant. Subsequently, 34 of their first-degree relatives (mainly siblings and parents) were genotyped rendering six additional HeFH patients, which resulted in 22 carriers of the mutated allele. The study of six LDLR polymorphisms in four unrelated individuals from the community (one HoFH and three HeFH) showed the same haplotype combination, suggesting a unique ancestral origin of the mutation. CONCLUSIONS The community El Triunfo, has the highest worldwide frequency ever reported of HeFH, with 7.14% (22/308, equivalent to 1/14 inhabitants). Since the HeFH patients showed variable biochemical expression, we suggest looking for factors with the potential to modify the phenotype. Finally, we stress the importance of establishing accurate LDLc cut-off points applicable to Mexican population for the diagnosis of FH.

Effect of alirocumab on individuals with type 2 diabetes, high triglycerides, and low high-density lipoprotein cholesterol. Cardiovasc Diabetol 2020; 19:14. [PMID: 32035487 PMCID: PMC7007683 DOI: 10.1186/s12933-020-0991-1] [Citation(s) in RCA: 14] [Impact Index Per Article: 3.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/07/2019] [Accepted: 01/22/2020] [Indexed: 01/17/2023] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND Mixed dyslipidemia [elevated non-high-density lipoprotein cholesterol (non-HDL-C) and triglycerides (TGs), and decreased HDL-C] is common in type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) and is associated with increased cardiovascular risk. Non-HDL-C and apolipoprotein B (ApoB) are the preferred therapeutic targets for mixed dyslipidemia. Alirocumab is a monoclonal antibody to proprotein convertase subtilisin/kexin type 9 (PCSK9) that effectively reduces low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C), non-HDL-C, ApoB, and lipoprotein(a) (Lp[a]), and is well-tolerated in individuals with T2DM. METHODS The previously reported open-label ODYSSEY DM-DYSLIPIDEMIA trial data demonstrated the effects of alirocumab on individuals with non-HDL-C ≥ 100 mg/dL and TGs ≥ 150 and < 500 mg/dL receiving stable maximally tolerated statin (n = 413). This post hoc subgroup analysis of the primary trial investigated the effects of alirocumab [75 mg every 2 weeks (Q2W) with possible increase to 150 mg Q2W at Week 12] versus usual care [ezetimibe, fenofibrate, or no additional lipid-lowering therapy (LLT)] on non-HDL-C and other lipids in individuals with T2DM and baseline TGs ≥ 200 mg/dL and HDL-C < 40 mg/dL (men) or < 50 mg/dL (women). RESULTS Alirocumab significantly reduced non-HDL-C [LS mean difference (standard error (SE)), - 35.0% (3.9)], ApoB [LS mean difference (SE), - 34.7% (3.6)], LDL-C [LS mean difference (SE), - 47.3% (5.2)], LDL particle number [LS mean difference (SE), - 40.8% (4.1)], and Lp(a) [LS mean difference (SE), - 29.9% (5.4)] versus usual care from baseline to Week 24 (all P < 0.0001). Results were similar for alirocumab versus usual care. TG reductions were similar between alirocumab and usual care (no significant difference), but greater with fenofibrate versus alirocumab (P = 0.3371). Overall, alirocumab significantly increased HDL-C versus usual care [LS mean difference (SE), 7.9% (3.6); P < 0.05], although differences with alirocumab versus ezetimibe or fenofibrate were non-significant. Most individuals receiving alirocumab achieved ApoB < 80 mg/dL (67.9%) and non-HDL-C < 100 mg/dL (60.9%). Adverse event frequency was similar between alirocumab (67.2%) and usual care (70.7%). Additionally, no clinically relevant effect of alirocumab on change in glycemic parameters or use of antihyperglycemic agents was observed. CONCLUSIONS Alirocumab is an effective therapeutic option for individuals with T2DM, TGs ≥ 200 mg/dL, and HDL-C < 40 mg/dL (men) or < 50 mg/dL (women). Atherogenic lipid (ApoB and non-HDL) reductions were greater with alirocumab than ezetimibe, fenofibrate, or no LLT. Consistent with previous studies, alirocumab was generally well tolerated.

Abstract
Cardiovascular disease is the number one cause of death and disability worldwide. While substantial gains have been made in reducing cardiovascular mortality, future projections suggest that we have reached a nadir and may be at an inflection point, given the rising tide of obesity and diabetes. Evaluation and management of plasma lipids is central to the prevention of atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease. Although the standard lipid panel represents a well-established platform to assess risk, this test alone can be insufficient and/or misleading. Advances in our understanding of atherosclerosis have led to the development of lipid-based biomarkers that help to discriminate the risk of cardiovascular disease when it is unclear. While these biomarkers provide novel information, their implementation into clinical medicine remains difficult given discrepancies in the literature, lack of assay standardisation, poor accessibility and high cost. However, additional measures of atherogenic lipoproteins or their surrogates may offer insight beyond the standard lipid panel, providing a more precise assessment of risk and more accurate assessment of lipid-lowering therapy.

Low-density lipoprotein cholesterol treatment and outcomes in patients with type 2 diabetes and established cardiovascular disease: Insights from TECOS. Am Heart J 2020; 220:82-88. [PMID: 31790905 DOI: 10.1016/j.ahj.2019.11.005] [Citation(s) in RCA: 3] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.8] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/11/2019] [Accepted: 11/11/2019] [Indexed: 01/21/2023]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Type 2 diabetes (T2D) patients are at increased risk for cardiovascular (CV) events. Most guidelines recommend treating low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C) levels to ≤70 mg/dL (1.8 mM) for patients with T2D and established atherosclerotic CV disease, and some a more aggressive target of ≤55 mg/dL (1.4 mM). Our objective was to assess the degree to which these LDL-C targets are achieved in routine practice. METHODS Using data from TECOS, an international pragmatic CV outcomes trial of sitagliptin vs placebo, we assessed lipid-lowering treatment among patients with T2D and CV disease, baseline lipid values, and the association between baseline LDL-C and 5-year risk for major adverse cardiac events (MACE; ie, CV death, nonfatal myocardial infarction, or nonfatal stroke). RESULTS Overall, 11,066 of 14,671 TECOS participants (75.4%) had LDL-C measured at baseline. Median age was 65 years, 72% were male, and median T2D duration was 10 years. Overall, 82.5% of patients were on statins; only 5.8% were on ezetimibe. At baseline, 14.3% had LDL-C ≤55 mg/dL, 18.4% between 55.1 and 70 mg/dL, 35% between 70.1 and 100 mg/dL, and 32.3% >100 mg/dL. Each 10 mg/dL higher LDL-C value was associated with a higher risk of MACE (HR 1.05, 95% CI 1.03-1.07) or CV death (HR 1.06, 95% CI 1.04-1.09). CONCLUSIONS Although most high-risk patients with T2D and CV disease were on lipid-lowering therapy, only 1:3 had LDL-C <70 mg/dL and 1:6 had LDL-C <55 mg/dL. Each 10 mg/dL higher LDL-C value was associated with a 5% and 6% higher 5-year incidence of MACE and CV death, respectively. (TECOS, NCT00790205).

Differential effects of 11 years of long-term injectable testosterone undecanoate therapy on anthropometric and metabolic parameters in hypogonadal men with normal weight, overweight and obesity in comparison with untreated controls: real-world data from a controlled registry study. Int J Obes (Lond) 2020; 44:1264-1278. [PMID: 32060355 PMCID: PMC7260126 DOI: 10.1038/s41366-019-0517-7] [Citation(s) in RCA: 22] [Impact Index Per Article: 5.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/19/2019] [Revised: 11/18/2019] [Accepted: 12/11/2019] [Indexed: 01/08/2023]
Abstract
Background and significance Obesity is a chronic disease, warranting long-term medical intervention. We evaluated effects of testosterone (T) therapy (Th) in men with T deficiency with normal weight, overweight and obesity on anthropometric and metabolic parameters, compared with untreated men. Methods Hypogonadal men (n = 823) with total T ≤ 12.1 nmol/L (age: 60.6 ± 7.0 years) participated in an ongoing registry study. Among these men 474 (57.6%) were obese, 286 (34.8%) overweight and 63 (7.7%) had normal weight. T undecanoate injections were administered to 428 men and 395 remained untreated. Anthropometric and metabolic parameters were measured at least twice a year and changes adjusted for confounding factors to account for baseline differences between groups. Results Long-term TTh in hypogonadal men, irrespective of weight at baseline, produced improvements in body weight, waist circumference (WC) and body mass index (BMI). Furthermore, TTh decreased fasting blood glucose and HbA1c and improved lipid profiles. Gradual decreases in blood pressure (systolic and diastolic) and pulse pressure occurred in men treated with T in each group. Marked reductions in mortality and major cardiovascular events were recorded in men receiving TTh. Conclusions Our findings demonstrate that TTh produces reductions in weight, WC, and BMI. There were 77 (19.5%) deaths in the untreated groups and 23 (5.4%) in the T-groups. Based on these findings we suggest that long-term TTh in overweight and obese hypogonadal men produces progressive and sustained clinically meaningful weight loss and that TTh may contribute to reductions in mortality and incident major adverse cardiovascular events.

Abstract
The way of defining the concept of health varies depending on the age, sex, social position of a person conditioned by place of residence, economic and family situation. The aim of the study was to assess subjective and objective health status of women over 65 living in a small and big town. In the subjective assessment of the nutritional status were the MNA questionnaire used, in the objective assessment was BMI used. Body composition analysis was carried out using the bioimpedance method. Lab tests were made using standard methods. The quantitative assessment of the diet was made using the 24-hour intake method, the results calculated in software Dieta 5. Significantly more often women from Nysa than from Wroclaw assessed their health status in comparison with their peers as just as good or better (p <0.05). The BMI value among Nysa women shows the overweight, and among women from Wroclaw, obesity. The average content of adipose tissue among all examined women indicated significant fatness of the examined group (36 - 37%). The average energy supply in the food rations of women from Nysa and Wroclaw differed statistically significantly and did not meet the accepted norms. In conclusion, we can say that older women from a small city assessed their health as better or as good compared to older women in a large city. The implementation of dietary norms and recommendations in the food rations of the subjects was insufficient. However, women from a small town provided statistically significantly more nutrients in their diets.

Effects of isotemporal substitution of sedentary behavior with light-intensity or moderate-to-vigorous physical activity on cardiometabolic markers in male adolescents. PLoS One 2019; 14:e0225856.

Abstract
Increasing prevalence of sedentary behavior (SB) combined with low levels of physical activity (PA) in children and adolescents has become a growing public health concern. Therefore, this study aimed to identify the daily behavioral pattern of adolescents and examine the isotemporal substitution effects of SB with light-intensity PA (LIPA) or moderate-to-vigorous PA (MVPA) on cardiometabolic markers. In this cross-sectional study, the daily behavioral pattern of Brazilian male adolescents was objectively measured for 7 days. Vector magnitude activity counts were used to estimate SB, LIPA, and MVPA with cut-points specifically validated for youth. The isotemporal substitution model was used to assess the effects of replacing different SB bouts (5, 10, 30, and 60 min) with LIPA or MVPA on cardiometabolic markers [body mass index, waist circumference, body fat percentage (BF%), total cholesterol, high-density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL-C), non-HDL-C, low-density lipoprotein cholesterol, triglyceride (TG), glucose, insulin, homeostatic model assessment of insulin resistance (HOMA2-IR), insulin sensitivity (HOMA2-S), beta cell function (HOMA2-β), systolic-blood pressure (SBP), diastolic-blood pressure, and cardiometabolic risk score]. Male adolescents (n = 84; age, 16.7 ± 0.9 years) wore the GT3X+ for 6.7 ± 0.6 days, during 15.2 ± 2.3 h, and spent 72.9% of the time in SB, 17.3% in LIPA, and 9.8% in MVPA. SB replacement with LIPA was associated with increased HDL-C, TG, HOMA2-IR, and HOMA2-S and decreased SBP. In contrast, SB replacement with MVPA was associated with decreased BF%. Therefore, our findings suggest that replacing SB with LIPA showed positive results on HDL-C, HOMA2-S and SBP, while replacing SB with MVPA was associated with only one obesity indicator (BF%). Moreover, participants met the daily MVPA recommendations, but they still had a daily behavioral pattern with high SB. In this context, LIPAs can be considered an effective alternative to reduce SB and improve the health indicators of this population.

Abstract
The SREBP2/LDLR pathway is sensitive to cholesterol content in the endoplasmic reticulum (ER), while membrane low-density lipoprotein receptor (LDLR) is influenced by sterol response element binding protein 2 (SREBP2), pro-protein convertase subtilisin/kexin type 9 (PCSK9) and inducible degrader of LDLR (IDOL). LDL-C, one of the risk factors in cardiovascular disease, is cleared through endocytosis recycling of LDLR. Therefore, we propose that a balance between LDLR endocytosis recycling and PCSK9-mediated and IDOL-mediated lysosomal LDLR degradation is responsible for cholesterol homeostasis in the ER. For statins that decrease serum LDL-C levels via cholesterol synthesis inhibition, the mechanism by which the statins increase the membrane LDLR may be regulated by cholesterol homeostasis in the ER.

Abstract
This study aimed to assess the effects of isotemporal replacement of sitting time (SIT) with standing (STA) on cardiometabolic biomarkers. In this cross-sectional study, male adolescents wore the GT3X+ activity monitor for 7 days to measure the SIT and STA. Moderate-to-vigorous physical activity (MVPA) was estimated by a youth-specific cut-off point. An isotemporal substitution approach was used to examine the effects of replacing different periods of SIT (15, 30, 60, and 120 min) with STA on cardiometabolic biomarkers [total cholesterol (TC), high-density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL-c), non-HDL-c, low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-c), triglycerides (TG), glucose, insulin, HOMA2-β, HOMA2-S, and HOMA2-IR]. Analysis of covariance (ANCOVA) with a post-hoc Bonferroni test was used to compare the adjusted means between the four subgroups that were clustered according to SIT and STA amount. Adolescents (n = 84; age, 16.7 ± 0.9 years) wore GT3X+ for 15.2 ± 2.3 h, for 6.7 ± 0.6 days. Isotemporal substitution of SIT with STA was associated with TC, non-HDL-c, LDL-c, and TG. ANCOVA results showed a statistically significant difference for TC, non-HDL-c, and LDL-c. These findings showed that for male adolescents, sitting less and standing more may be an effective alternative to reduce cardiometabolic biomarker levels related to lipid metabolism, regardless of MVPA.

Abstract
BACKGROUND AND AIMS Muscle-related symptoms with or without creatine kinase (CK) elevation are common adverse effects associated with statin use. Symptoms are ranging from benign myalgia to myositis and in rare cases to rhabdomyolysis. The aim was to characterize and describe muscular side effects and create an anatomical frequency mapping. METHODS The prospective observational study was performed at a large lipidology outpatient unit in Vienna. 1111 consecutively admitted patients with muscular side effects on statin monotherapy were included during a 4-year period. Anatomical mapping of the affected muscles, signs and symptoms, the onset of symptoms after starting statin therapy and disappearance after cessation of treatment was assessed. RESULTS In 96.5% of the patients with muscle symptoms, there was no elevation of CK. The anatomical mapping revealed exercised muscles as being mainly affected in 84%. In the upper extremity, symptoms were mainly described at the dominating side. Mostly affected muscles were the pectoral (61.4%), followed by the quadriceps femoris (59.8%), the biceps brachii (54.3%) and the deltoid (22.5%) muscles. The majority of symptoms (76.9%, n = 854) appeared within 29 days. Symptoms disappeared after discontinuation of statin therapy at a mean of 5.4 days. CONCLUSIONS Physical activity seems to be a key trigger for onset of statin-induced muscular side effects. The appearance of symptoms can be symmetrical, asymmetrical, generalized or in isolated muscle groups only. Different statins usually produce similar symptoms, but often some patients tolerate one statin better than another.

Abstract
The leading cause of mortality in the United States is atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease (ASCVD). Atherosclerotic lesions begin during childhood and can place individuals at greater risk for ASCVD. Providers play an active role in preventing the progression of risk factors and future ASCVD events through appropriate clinical management of genetic and acquired dyslipidemias in the pediatric population. Health care providers need to be aware of current recommendations related to screening for dyslipidemia, lifestyle modification strategies, pharmacologic treatment, and guidelines for ongoing monitoring. Most patients with mild to moderate dyslipidemia can be managed by a primary care provider. It is imperative that providers understand the pathophysiology, screening methods, and available treatment options to effectively manage the condition. Frequent reassessment of family history and adherence to lifestyle modifications and pharmacologic interventions is essential for effective treatment.

Testosterone Therapy in Men With Hypogonadism Prevents Progression From Prediabetes to Type 2 Diabetes: Eight-Year Data From a Registry Study. Diabetes Care 2019; 42:1104-1111. [PMID: 30862651 DOI: 10.2337/dc18-2388] [Citation(s) in RCA: 84] [Impact Index Per Article: 16.8] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/19/2018] [Accepted: 02/18/2019] [Indexed: 02/03/2023]
Abstract
OBJECTIVE Type 2 diabetes (T2D) is a public health threat. Prediabetes represents a window of opportunity for intervention to prevent T2D. Men with T2D and prediabetes often have low testosterone. Since testosterone improves glycemic control in T2D, we investigated whether testosterone therapy (TTh) in men with hypogonadism and prediabetes prevents progression to T2D. RESEARCH DESIGN AND METHODS Three hundred and sixteen men with prediabetes (defined as HbA1c 5.7-6.4%) and total testosterone levels ≤12.1 nmol/L combined with symptoms of hypogonadism were analyzed. Two hundred and twenty-nine men received parenteral testosterone undecanoate (T-group), and 87 men with hypogonadism served as untreated control subjects. Metabolic and anthropometric parameters were measured twice yearly for 8 years. RESULTS HbA1c decreased by 0.39 ± 0.03% (P < 0.0001) in the T-group and increased by 0.63 ± 0.1% (P < 0.0001) in the untreated group. In the T-group, 90% achieved normal glucose regulation (HbA1c <5.7%). In the untreated group, 40.2% progressed to T2D (HbA1c >6.5%). TTh was also associated with significant improvements in fasting glucose, triglyceride:HDL ratio, triglyceride-glucose index, lipid accumulation product, total cholesterol, LDL, HDL, non-HDL, triglycerides, and Aging Males' Symptoms (AMS) scale. Significant deterioration in all these parameters was seen in the untreated group. Mortality was 7.4% in the T-group and 16.1% in the untreated group (P < 0.05). The incidence of nonfatal myocardial infarction was 0.4% in the T-group and 5.7% in the untreated group (P < 0.005). CONCLUSIONS Long-term TTh completely prevents prediabetes progression to T2D in men with hypogonadism and improves glycemia, lipids, and AMS score. TTh holds tremendous potential for the large and growing population of men with prediabetes and hypogonadism.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Dyslipidemia, a risk factor for coronary heart disease (CHD), is a burden due to morbidity, mortality, and CHD-related costs. Patient-centered clinical interventions improve adherence to lifestyle modifications among adults with dyslipidemia. OBJECTIVE The study's objectives were to (a) promote participants' safety through increased knowledge on the risks and prevention of CHD, (b) help participants identify their own barriers to lifestyle modifications, and (c) develop strategies with participants on individualized plans to adhere to healthy living. METHODS Seventeen participants with dyslipidemia enrolled in a quality improvement over 6 weeks. Participants were from one employee health clinic in Mississippi. Measures are Heart Disease Fact Questionnaire (HDFQ), Framingham Tool, pre- and poststudy lipid panels, and physiologic measurements. Interventions include motivational technique-led interviews as a tool for behavioral change. RESULTS Pre- and post-HDFQ responses indicated an 18% increase in knowledge attainment because of the patient-centered care interventions. Postinterventions, mean plasma lipid panels were 29% lower, weight loss ranged from 0 to 10.1 pounds, and body mass indexes were 0.4 to 1.2 less. Blood pressures (BPs) preintervention ranged from 120/70 to 159/89. Postinterventions BP ranged from 107/82 to 146/70. CONCLUSIONS Patient-centered clinical interventions improve management of dyslipidemia through increased knowledge on risks and prevention of CHD and also through finding own barriers to healthy living. IMPLICATIONS Healthcare providers can make a difference in people's lives through exploring the unhealthy behaviors and discovering ways for better health outcomes.

Abstract
Epidemiological studies and meta-analyses have consistently suggested the importance of lowering low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C) to reduce cardiovascular (CV) events. However, these studies and mechanistic studies using intracoronary imaging modalities have reported patients who continue to experience CV events or disease progression despite optimal LDL-C levels on statins. These findings, including statin intolerance, have highlighted the importance of exploring additional potential therapeutic targets to reduce CV risk. Genomic insights have presented a number of additional novel targets in lipid metabolism. In particular, proprotein convertase subtilisin/kexin type 9 inhibitors have rapidly developed and recently demonstrated their beneficial impact on CV outcomes. Triglyceride (TG)-rich lipoproteins have been recently reported as a causal factor of atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease (ASCVD). Indeed, several promising TG-targeting therapies are being tested at various clinical stages. In this review, we present the evidence to support targeting atherogenic lipoproteins to target residual ASCVD risk in statin-treated patients.

Abstract
Atherosclerotic cardiovascular events are the leading cause of mortality and morbidity in those with diabetes. A key contributor to the development of atherosclerosis in this population is the presence of a particularly atherogenic lipid profile often referred to as 'Diabetic Dyslipidemia'. This profile is characterized by elevated triglycerides, triglyceride-rich lipoproteins, small dense LDL particles, and reduced HDL levels. This article reviews the underlying aetiology and pathophysiology of this dyslipidaemia and atherosclerosis in those with diabetes, provides insights from epidemiological and genetic studies, and current cardiovascular risk reducing interventions including novel therapies such as PCSK-9 inhibitors.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Previous research demonstrates increased utilization of high-intensity statins, but unchanged low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C) levels, immediately after the 2013 American College of Cardiology (ACC) and the American Heart Association (AHA) guideline release. OBJECTIVE The objective of this study was to determine achievement of statin therapy goals in patients with atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease (ASCVD) before and up to 4 years after the 2013 ACC/AHA guideline release compared with LDL-C goals of <70 mg/dL and <100 mg/dL previously recommended by other professional societies. METHODS The single-system cohort study used medical records, laboratory results, and claims data (November 2012-October 2017) of adults with ≥1 claim for a statin, ≥1 ASCVD diagnosis in propensity score-matched analyses. RESULTS Among 1938 patients (mean age 70 ± 11, 48% female) with ASCVD, the percentage on high-intensity statin therapy significantly increased over time: 24% in 2013, 34% 2014, 42% 2015, and 49% 2016 (P < .0001). The increase in high-intensity statin use was 13 to 22% higher among patients managed by subspecialists (cardiologist and endocrinologists) compared with those managed by primary care providers. Mean LDL-C level was slightly, but not significantly, lower in 2013 (80 mg/dL) than in other years: 85 mg/dL in 2014, 83 mg/dL in 2015, and 82 mg/dL in 2016. The proportion of patients reaching LDL-C goals ranged from 51% to 56% for the <70 mg/dL target and 77% to 85% for the <100 mg/dL target over time. CONCLUSION High-intensity statin use among secondary prevention patients increased significantly immediately after the 2013 ACC/AHA guidelines release, primarily in those managed by subspecialists. However, the mean LDL-C and the proportion of patients reaching LDL-C < 70 mg/dL and < 100 mg/dL remain unchanged across comparison cohorts.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) and hyperlipidemia are negatively related to bone regeneration. The aim of this study was to evaluate the effect of high-fat and high-glucose microenvironment on bone regeneration and to detect the expression of runt-related transcription factor 2 (Runx2) and transcriptional co-activator with PDZ-binding domain (TAZ) during this process. METHODS After establishing a high-fat and high-glucose mouse model, a 1 mm × 1.5 mm bone defect was developed in the mandible. On days 7, 14, and 28 after operation, bone regeneration was evaluated by hematoxylin-eosin staining, Masson staining, TRAP staining, and immunohistochemistry, while Runx2 and TAZ expression were detected by immunohistochemistry, RT-PCR, and Western blot analysis. RESULTS Our results showed that the inhibition of bone regeneration in high-fat and high-glucose group was the highest among the four groups. In addition, the expression of Runx2 in high-fat, high-glucose, and high-fat and high-glucose groups was weaker than that in the control group, but the expression of TAZ only showed a decreasing trend in the high-fat and high-glucose group during bone regeneration. CONCLUSIONS In conclusion, these results suggest that high-fat and high-glucose microenvironment inhibits bone regeneration, which may be related to the inhibition of Runx2 and TAZ expression.

Abstract
PROBLEM Cardiovascular disease (CVD) is the leading cause of death in the U.S. and in most Western countries. Early identification and treatment of individuals with elevated levels of atherogenic cholesterol, a major contributor to CVD, have been shown to be effective and safe in reducing premature morbidity and mortality, especially in familial hypercholesterolemia (FH). Cholesterol screening of youth also provides a unique means of identifying affected family members through reverse cascade screening (RCS). ELIGIBILITY CRITERIA A PubMed review of all relevant articles from 2000 to 2016 was conducted of familial hypercholesterolemia and cholesterol screening of youth. RESULTS We provide an overview of cholesterol screening, outline the role of the pediatric nurse in the lipid clinic, and discuss effectiveness and potential barriers, including cost and confidentiality considerations of RCS. CONCLUSIONS Early identification and effective intervention of youth with FH, including adoption of a heart-healthy lifestyle, has the potential of 1) markedly reducing or eliminating atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease and related events in future generations and 2) provides a unique means of identifying affected family members. IMPLICATIONS Pediatric nurses play a vital role in the education and care coordination of children diagnosed with FH and screening of relatives. Identification of a child with FH with effective screening of relatives combines the benefits of universal and cascade screening, and has the potential of detecting all living cases of FH. While potentially providing significant benefit to those at risk for premature CVD, a RCS program needs to carefully consider ethical, psychological, and financial implications as well.

Abstract
Background Familial apo C-II deficiency is a rare hereditary disorder frequently caused by lipoprotein lipase (LPL) and APOC2 gene mutations. To date, less than 30 patients with familial apo C-II deficiency with 24 different mutations have been identified in the literature. Here, we describe two familial chylomicronemia syndrome cases in infants with two novel mutations of the APOC2 gene. Case presentation Case 1, a 46-day-old female, was admitted to our hospital for evaluation due to the lipemic appearance of the blood sample. A clinical examination revealed hepatomegaly and lipemia retinalis. Triglyceride level of 6295 mg/dL was decreased with a strict low-fat diet, medium-chain triglycerides (MCT) oil-rich formula and omega-3 fatty acid supplementation. Due to low adherence to the diet, TG elevation was detected and fresh frozen plasma (10 mL/kg/day) was administered for 2 days. A novel homozygous p.Q25X (c.73C>T) mutation in the APOC2 gene was detected. Case 2, a 10-month-old female patient, referred to our center for the differential diagnosis of hyperlipidemia as her blood sample could not be assessed due to its lipemic appearance. Laboratory examinations showed a TG level of 4520 mg/dL which was reduced with a low-fat diet, MCT oil-rich formula and omega-3 fatty acid supplementation. Hepatosteatosis and splenomegaly were determined using abdominal sonography. A novel homozygous IVS2+6T>G (c.55+6T>G) mutation in the APOC2 gene was identified. Conclusions We describe two novel homozygous mutations (p.Q25X [c.73C>T] and IVS2+6T>G [c.55+6T>G]) in the APOC2 gene in infants with hyperchylomicronemia. To the best of our knowledge, Case 1 is the youngest patient with familial apo C-II deficiency in the literature to date.
