Relación entre la dislipidemia y otros factores de riesgo cardiovasculares conocidos con la presencia de enfermedad cardiovascular en pacientes con enfermedad pulmonar obstructiva crónica de las Islas Canarias / Dyslipidaemia and other cardiovascular risk factors in relation to manifest cardiovascular disease in patients with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease in the Canary Islands

INTRODUCCIÓN: La enfermedad cardiovascular tiene un impacto negativo en el pronóstico vital de los pacientes con enfermedad pulmonar obstructiva crónica (EPOC), siendo la dislipidemia (DLP) y la hipertensión arterial (HTA) los factores de riesgo más prevalentes. El objetivo del estudio fue: 1) evaluar la relación existente entre el diagnóstico de DLP y la presencia de enfermedad cardiovascular en pacientes con EPOC, y compararlo con otros factores conocidos de riesgo cardiovascular; y 2) determinar la relación entre las diferentes comorbilidades cardiovasculares y los grupos de gravedad según la clasificación GOLD 2017. MÉTODOS: Estudio observacional transversal de 454 pacientes con EPOC en seguimiento ambulatorio. Se calculó la prevalencia de cada una de las comorbilidades cardiovasculares y el riesgo de que cada uno de los factores de riesgo cardiovascular se presentase conjuntamente con una enfermedad vascular (RRij). RESULTADOS: El 66,7% de los pacientes eran dislipidémicos. La DLP mostró una mayor relación con la presencia de accidentes cerebrovasculares (ACV) (RRij 1.36; p = 0,0054), enfermedad renal crónica (ERC) (RRij 1.34; p = 0,00023) y arteriopatía periférica (AP) (RRij 1.38; p = 0,00015); la HTA se relacionó mayormente con ACV (RRij 1,41; p = 0,0014) y ERC (RRij 1,42; p < 0,0001); la DMT2 con AP (RRij 1,90; p = 0,0001), insuficiencia cardiaca (IC) (RRij 1,74; p = 0,0002) y ERC (RRij 1,76; p < 0,0001); la obesidad con IC (RRij 1,60; p = 0,0009) y ERC (RRij 1.54; p = 0,0001). CONCLUSIÓN: La DLP se relacionó con la presencia de ACV, ERC y AP. La HTA y DMT2 se relacionaban mayoritariamente con IC y ACV

INTRODUCTION: Cardiovascular disease has a negative impact on the vital prognosis of patients with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), where dyslipidaemia (DLP) and arterial hypertension (AHT) are considered the most prevalent risk factors. The objective of this study was 1) to assess the relationship between diagnosed DLP and cardiovascular disease in COPD patients and compare it with other known cardiovascular risk factors and 2) to determine the relationship between the different cardiovascular comorbidities and the severity groups according to the GOLD 2017 classification. METHODS: A cross-sectional, observational study was performed in 454 outpatients with COPD during their follow up. We calculated the prevalence of each of the cardiovascular comorbidities and the probability of each of the cardiovascular risk factors to occur jointly with a vascular disease (RRij). RESULTS: A total of 66.7% of the patients had DLP, whereby DLP was related to cerebrovascular accidents (CVA) (RRij 1.36, P=.0054), chronic kidney disease (CKD) (RRij 1.34, P=.00023), and peripheral arterial disease (PAD) (RRij 1.38, P=.00015). AHT was mostly related to CVA (RRij 1.41, P=.0014) and CKD (RRij 1.42, P<.0001). Type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) correlated with PAD (RRij 1.90, P=.0001), heart failure (HF) (RRij 1,74, P=.0002), and CKD (RRij 1.76, P<.0001), and obesity was associated with HF (RRij 1.60, P=.0009) and CKD (RRij 1.54, P=.0001). CONCLUSION: DLP was related to CVA, CKD, and PAD. AHT and T2DM are the conditions that mostly relate to HF and CVA
