RESUMO

OBJECTIVE: To investigate the association between red cell distribution width (RDW) and the RDW to platelet count ratio (RPR) and cardiovascular diseases (CVDs) and to further investigate whether the association involves population differences and dose-response relationships. DESIGN: Cross-sectional population-based study. SETTING: The National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (1999-2020). PARTICIPANTS: A total of 48 283 participants aged 20 years or older (CVD, n=4593; non-CVD, n=43 690) were included in this study. PRIMARY AND SECONDARY OUTCOME MEASURES: The primary outcome was the presence of CVD, while the secondary outcome was the presence of specific CVDs. Multivariable logistic regression analysis was performed to determine the relationship between RDW or the RPR and CVD. Subgroup analyses were performed to test the interactions between demographics variables and their associations with disease prevalence. RESULTS: A logistic regression model was fully adjusted for potential confounders; the ORs with 95% CIs for CVD across the second to fourth quartiles were 1.03 (0.91 to 1.18), 1.19 (1.04 to 1.37) and 1.49 (1.29 to 1.72) for RDW (p for trend <0.0001) compared with the lowest quartile. The ORs with 95% CIs for CVD across the second to fourth quartiles were 1.04 (0.92 to 1.17), 1.22 (1.05 to 1.42) and 1.64 (1.43 to 1.87) for the RPR compared with the lowest quartile (p for trend <0.0001). The association of RDW with CVD prevalence was more pronounced in females and smokers (all p for interaction <0.05). The association of the RPR with CVD prevalence was more pronounced in the group younger than 60 years (p for interaction=0.022). The restricted cubic spline also suggested a linear association between RDW and CVD and a non-linear association between the RPR and CVD (p for non-linear <0.05). CONCLUSION: There are statistical heterogeneities in the association between RWD, RPR distributions and the CVD prevalence, across sex, smoking status and age groups.

RESUMO

OBJECTIVE: We aimed to explore the association between periodontitis and abdominal aortic calcification (AAC) among a nationally representative sample of US adults. DESIGN: Cross- sectional study. SETTING: The National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (2013-2014). PARTICIPANTS: A total of 2149 participants aged 40 years or older who have complete information for periodontitis and AAC assessment test were included in this study. PRIMARY AND SECONDARY OUTCOME MEASURES: AAC scores can be accurately identified on lateral spine images obtained by dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry, and both the AAC-24 and AAC-8 semiquantitative scoring tools were used for AAC evaluation. Linear regression analysis was used to investigate the relationship between periodontitis and the AAC-8 and AAC-24 scores. Multivariate logistic regression models and reported ORs were used to examine the relationship between periodontitis and AAC. RESULTS: The prevalence of severe periodontitis combined with severe AAC was 8.49%-8.54%. According to the AAC-8 and AAC-24 score classifications, patients with severe periodontitis had higher odds of severe AAC (AAC-8 score ≥3: (OR: 2.53; 95% CI 1.04 to 6.17) and AAC-24 score >6: (OR: 3.60; 95% CI 1.48 to 8.78)). A positive association between mild-moderate periodontitis and severe AAC was found only when the AAC-24 score was applied (OR: 2.25; 95% CI 1.24 to 4.06). In the subgroup analyses, the likelihood ratio test showed no multiplicative interaction (all p value for interaction >0.05). CONCLUSIONS: The findings showed that periodontitis is associated with an increased risk of severe AAC in the US population aged 40 years and older; this requires further large-scale prospective studies for confirmation.

RESUMO

OBJECTIVE: To explore the distribution characteristics of apolipoprotein A5 (ApoA5) gene c.553G > T polymorphism and the relationship of serum lipid in Chinese Han and Uighur populations in Xinjiang, China. METHODS: The genotypes of ApoA5 gene c.553G > T polymorphism were detected in 406 Uighur and 527 Han people by polymerase chain reaction and restriction fragment length polymorphism (PCR-RFLP). RESULTS: The frequencies of GG, GT and TT genotypes of ApoA5 gene c.553G > T were 378 (93.1%), 27 (6.7%) and 1 (0.25%) patients in Uighurs versus 478 (90.7%) patients, 49 (9.3%) patients and 0% in Hans. There was no significant difference in the distribution of genotypes between two groups (P > 0.05). In both groups, individuals with T allele (TT + GT genotype) had a higher level of serum triglyceride than those with GG genotype. After adjusting for gender, age, smoking, alcoholism, body mass index, blood pressure and blood lipid, non-conditional logistic regression analyses revealed that individuals with T allele (TT + GT genotype) in both groups had an elevated risk of HTG versus the GG genotype (OR = 3.31, 95%CI: 1.31 - 8.36 in Uighurs vs OR = 3.98, 95%CI: 1.81 - 8.74 in Hans). CONCLUSION: The mutation of c.553G > T polymorphism of ApoA5 gene is associated with the level of serum triglyceride in Uighur and Han populations of Xinjiang. And T allele may be a risk factor of hypertriglyceridemia.
