RESUMO
BACKGROUND: Major depressive disorder (MDD) has been identified as a causal risk factor for multiple forms of cardiovascular disease. Although observational evidence has linked MDD to peripheral artery disease (PAD), causal evidence of this relationship is lacking. METHODS AND RESULTS: Inverse variance weighted 2-sample Mendelian randomization was used to test the association the between genetic liability for MDD and genetic liability for PAD. Genetic liability for MDD was associated with increased genetic liability for PAD (odds ratio [OR], 1.17 [95% CI, 1.06-1.29]; P=2.6×10-3). Genetic liability for MDD was also associated with increased genetically determined lifetime smoking (ß=0.11 [95% CI, 0.078-0.14]; P=1.2×10-12), decreased alcohol intake (ß=-0.078 [95% CI, -0.15 to 0]; P=0.043), and increased body mass index (ß=0.10 [95% CI, 0.02-0.19]; P=1.8×10-2), which in turn were associated with genetic liability for PAD (smoking: OR, 2.81 [95% CI, 2.28-3.47], P=9.8×10-22; alcohol: OR, 0.77 [95% CI, 0.66-0.88]; P=1.8×10-4; body mass index: OR, 1.61 [95% CI, 1.52-1.7]; P=1.3×10-57). Controlling for lifetime smoking index, alcohol intake, and body mass index with multivariable Mendelian randomization completely attenuated the association between genetic liability for MDD with genetic liability for PAD. CONCLUSIONS: This work provides evidence for a possible causal association between MDD and PAD that is dependent on intermediate risk factors, adding to the growing body of evidence suggesting that effective management and treatment of cardiovascular diseases may require a composite of physical and mental health interventions.

OBJECTIVE: To identify genetic risk factors for incident cardiovascular disease (CVD) among people with type 2 diabetes (T2D). RESEARCH DESIGN AND METHODS: We conducted a multiancestry time-to-event genome-wide association study for incident CVD among people with T2D. We also tested 204 known coronary artery disease (CAD) variants for association with incident CVD. RESULTS: Among 49,230 participants with T2D, 8,956 had incident CVD events (event rate 18.2%). We identified three novel genetic loci for incident CVD: rs147138607 (near CACNA1E/ZNF648, hazard ratio [HR] 1.23, P = 3.6 × 10-9), rs77142250 (near HS3ST1, HR 1.89, P = 9.9 × 10-9), and rs335407 (near TFB1M/NOX3, HR 1.25, P = 1.5 × 10-8). Among 204 known CAD loci, 5 were associated with incident CVD in T2D (multiple comparison-adjusted P < 0.00024, 0.05/204). A standardized polygenic score of these 204 variants was associated with incident CVD with HR 1.14 (P = 1.0 × 10-16). CONCLUSIONS: The data point to novel and known genomic regions associated with incident CVD among individuals with T2D.
