RESUMO
OBJECTIVE: We aimed to investigate the association between triglyceride glucose index and cardiovascular disease (CVD) development in the Chinese middle-aged and elderly population using the China Health and Retirement Longitudinal Study dataset 2011-2018. METHODS: Basic characteristics of participants, including sociodemographic information, and health conditions, were acquired. Logistic regression analyses and restricted cubic spline regression analyses were conducted to investigate the association between the triglyceride glucose index and future CVD risks. Subgroup analyses were performed to evaluate potential interaction. RESULTS: Seven hundred fifty-three of 6114 (12.3%) participants have developed CVD in 2018 over an approximately 7-year follow-up. The logistic regression analysis exhibited that compared to the lowest triglyceride glucose index group, the multivariable OR for future CVD was 0.985 (95%CI 0.811-1.198) in the T2 triglyceride glucose index group and 1.288 (95%CI 1.068-1.555) in the T3 TyG index (P for trend 0.006). The restricted cubic spline regression analysis showed the nonlinear association between triglyceride glucose index and CVD incidence; the cut-off values were 8.07 and 8.57, respectively, after total adjustment. Gender, fast blood glucose, and triglycerides interacted with triglyceride glucose index and CVD except for BMI. CONCLUSION: The triglyceride glucose index was nonlinearly related to the risk of future cardiovascular disease in the middle-aged and elderly Chinese population.

OBJECTIVE: We aimed to investigate the effect of the triglyceride glucose (TyG) index on the association between diabetes and cardiovascular disease (CVD). METHODS: Data from 6,114 individuals were extracted and analyzed from the China Health and Retirement Longitudinal Survey (CHARLS) from 2011 to 2018. Logistic regression analyses were conducted to assess the relationship between diabetes and CVD across the various TyG index groups. The statistical method of subgroup analysis was used to determine the correlation between diabetes and CVD for each TyG index group by sex, history of hypertension and dyslipidemia, smoking, and drinking. RESULTS: Diabetes was positively associated with CVD risk after adjustment in 2011(odds ratio (OR) 1.475, 95% CI 1.243-1.752, P < 0.001). There was a gradient increase in the OR for new-onset CVD in 2018 due to diabetes at baseline across the value of the TyG index based on a fully adjusted model (P for trend < 0.05). The ORs of diabetes at baseline for CVD in 2018 were 1.657 (95% CI 0.928-2.983, P = 0.098), 1.834(95% CI 1.064-3.188, P = 0.037) and 2.234(95% CI 1.349-3.673, P = 0.006) for T1, T2 and T3 of the TyG index respectively. The gradient of increasing risk of CVD still existed among those with hypertension and nondrinkers in the subgroup analysis. CONCLUSION: Elevated TyG index strengthens the correlation between diabetes mellitus and CVD in middle-aged and elderly Chinese adults.

PURPOSE: Colorectal cancer (CRC) is a common malignancy that affects adults worldwide, causing a high disease burden. Few studies have examined the relationship between body composition (BC) measures and the prevalence of CRC. Our purpose was to investigate the relationship between pertinent BC indicators and CRC. METHODS: Bioelectrical impedance analysis, laboratory test results, face-to-face questionnaire investigation, and nutritional risk assessment (Nutritional Risk Screening 2002 and Patient-Generated Subjective Global Assessment) were used in this case-control study. Bioelectrical impedance analysis in the case group was performed prior to antitumor therapy/surgery. RESULTS: From June 2018 to January 2019, a total of 303 cases and 286 controls were included. The results showed that low body fat percentage (BFP) and high visceral adiposity index (VAI) groups had a higher risk of developing CRC in comparison to the normal BFP and normal VAI groups. The risk of CRC decreased with the increase of BFP. The group with a normal BC had a lower risk of developing CRC compared to those with a greater VAI and a lower BFP, as indicated by the results of the pairwise and total combinations of VAI, fat-free mass index (FFMI), and BFP. Additionally, FFMI and VAI had positive correlations with prealbumin, serum albumin, and nutritional risk scores. CONCLUSION: Low BFP and high VAI are associated with higher CRC risk. FFMI and VAI are positively correlated with prealbumin, serum albumin, and nutritional risk scores in CRC patients.

Background: Chronic kidney disease (CKD) patients have a high prevalence of coronary artery disease and a high risk of cardiovascular events. The present study assessed the value of the CHA2DS2-VASc score for predicting mortality among hospitalized acute coronary syndrome (ACS) patients with CKD. Methods: This was a retrospective cohort study that included CKD patients who were hospitalized for ACS from January 2015 to May 2020. The CHA2DS2-VASc score for each eligible patient was determined. Patients were stratified into two groups according to CHA2DS2-VASc score: <6 (low) and ≥6 (high). The primary endpoint was all-cause mortality. Results: A total of 313 eligible patients were included in the study, with a mean CHA2DS2-VASC score of 4.55 ± 1.68. A total of 220 and 93 patients were assigned to the low and high CHA2DS2-VASc score groups, respectively. The most common reason for hospitalization was unstable angina (39.3%), followed by non-ST-elevation myocardial infarction (35.8%) and ST-elevation myocardial infarction (24.9%). A total of 67.7% of the patients (212/313) received coronary reperfusion therapy during hospitalization. The median follow-up time was 23.0 months (interquartile range: 12-38 months). A total of 94 patients (30.0%) died during follow-up. The high score group had a higher mortality rate than the low score group (46.2 vs. 23.2%, respectively; p < 0.001). The cumulative incidence of all-cause death was higher in the high score group than in the low score group (Log-rank test, p < 0.001). Multivariate Cox regression analysis indicated that CHA2DS2-VASc scores were positively associated with all-cause mortality (hazard ratio: 2.02, 95% confidence interval: 1.26-3.27, p < 0.001). Conclusion: The CHA2DS2-VASc score is an independent predictive factor for all-cause mortality in CKD patients who are hospitalized with ACS. This simple and practical scoring system may be useful for the early identification of patients with a high risk of death.
RESUMO
BACKGROUND: ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) patients with a high thrombus burden have a relatively high slow-flow/no-reflow risk. However, the association between kaolin-induced maximum amplitude (MAthrombin) and slow-flow/no-reflow has been scarcely explored. METHODS: STEMI patients treated with primary percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) were retrospectively enrolled from January 2015 to December 2019 at China-Japan Friendship Hospital. MAthrombin levels were measured using thromboelastography before the PCI procedure. The patients were divided into two groups according to thrombolysis in myocardial infarction (TIMI) flow grade after primary PCI: the normal flow group (TIMI flow grade = 3) and slow-flow/no-reflow (TIMI flow grade ≤ 2). The logistic regression model and restricted cubic spline regression (RCS) were used to analyze the predictive value of MAthrombin for slow-flow/no-reflow. All patients were followed up after discharge and observed the adverse cardiovascular events between the two groups. RESULTS: A total of 690 patients were enrolled, with 108(15.7%) having slow-flow/no-reflow. The multivariate logistic regression model analysis showed that MAthrombin level was an independent risk factor for slow-flow/no-reflow. The RCS analysis showed a nonlinear relationship between MAthrombin levels and slow-flow/no-reflow. The cut-off value of MAthrombin levels for predicting slow-flow/no-reflow was 68 mm. During a median follow-up time of 4.4 years, slow-flow/no-reflow (hazard ratio 1.93, 95% confidence interval 1.27-2.93, P = 0.002) and MAthrombin levels (hazard ratio 1.06, 95% confidence interval 1.03-1.08, P < 0.001) were independent risk factors for predicting the long-term of adverse clinical cardiovascular events. CONCLUSION: MAthrombin was an independent risk factor for predicting slow-flow/ no-reflow in STEMI patients who underwent primary PCI.

OBJECTIVE: Our study aims to investigate the role of the ABO blood group in the development and severity of coronary artery disease (CAD) in end-stage renal disease (ESRD) patients with dialysis. METHODS: A total of 408 ESRD patients with dialysis between January 2010 and December 2020 were enrolled including 204 patients diagnosed with CAD undergoing coronary angiography for the first time, and baseline characteristics as well as Gensini score (GS) were collected. Logistic regression analysis and linear regression analysis were performed to evaluate the relation of ABO blood types to the risk and severity of CAD, respectively. RESULTS: Blood group O frequency was significantly low in dialysis ESRD patients with CAD (25 vs. 38.24%) compared with the non-CAD patients and multivariable logistic regression showed blood group O was negatively associated with the risk of CAD [adjusted odds ratio (OR) = 0.33, 95% CI = 0.19-0.60, p < 0.001] as well as the GS tertiles (adjusted OR = 0.23, 95% CI = 0.11-0.49, p < 0.001) compared with A blood group. Blood group A, B, and AB were positively associated with the high Gensini tertile compared with O blood group (adjusted OR = 4.26, 95% CI = 2.03-8.93, p < 0.001; adjusted OR = 2.39, 95% CI = 1.11-5.13, p < 0.05; adjusted OR = 4.33, 95% CI = 1.40-13.35, P < 0.05). Similarly, multivariable linear regression results revealed O blood type was negatively associated with the GS (ß = -26.129, 95% CI = -40.094 to -12.164, p < 0.001). CONCLUSION: This case-control study demonstrated that blood group O was a potential independent protective factor for the risk and severity of CAD in ESRD patients with dialysis.
