ABSTRACT

Resumen: Objetivo: La prevalencia de calcificación valvular aórtica (CVA) tiene influencia importante de la etnia y se desconoce en población mexicana. Nuestro objetivo fue investigar la prevalencia de CVA y sus asociaciones con factores de riesgo cardiovascular y calcificación arterial coronaria (CAC). Método: En 1,267 sujetos (53% mujeres) sin enfermedad coronaria conocida y con edad de 35 a 75 años, la CVA y la CAC se evaluaron mediante tomografía computada multidetector, utilizando el método de Agatston. Los factores de riesgo cardiovascular se documentaron en todos los participantes. Las asociaciones de CVA con CAC y factores de riesgo se estimaron usando el análisis de regresión logística múltiple. Resultados: La prevalencia global de CVA y CAC fue del 19.89% y del 26.5%, respectivamente. Ambas condiciones aumentaron con la edad y se encontraron con mayor frecuencia en hombres (25.5 y 37.1%, respectivamente) que en mujeres (14.9 y 13%, respectivamente). La CVA se observó en únicamente el 8.5% de los sujetos sin CAC, mientras que en aquellos con CAC 1-99, 100-399 y > 400 unidades Agatston, las prevalencias fueron del 36.8, 56.8 y 84%, respectivamente. El análisis de regresión logística múltiple ajustado por edad, género, obesidad, inactividad física, hipertensión, dislipidemia y valores altos de insulina, mostró que la presencia de CAC (RM [IC95%]: 3.23 [2.26-4.60]), obesidad (1.94 [1.35-2.79]), género masculino (1.44 [1.01-2.05]) y edad (1.08 [1.03-1.10]), fueron predictores independientes y significativos de la CVA. Conclusiones: La prevalencia de CVA es alta y se asocia significativamente con factores de riesgo aterosclerótico y CAC en población mexicana.


Abstract: Objetive: The prevalence of aortic valve calcification (AVC), strongly influenced by ethnicity, is unknown in Mexican population. The aim of this study was to investigate the prevalence of AVC and its associations with cardiovascular risk factors and coronary artery calcification (CAC), in Mexican subjects. Methods: In 1,267 subjects (53% women) without known coronary heart disease, aged 35 to 75 years, AVC and CAC were assessed by multidetector-computed tomography using the Agatston score. Cardiovascular risk factors were documented in all participants. The associations of AVC with CAC and risk factors were assessed by multivariable logistic regression analyses. Results: The overall prevalence of AVC and CAC was 19.89% and 26.5%, respectively. AVC and CAC increased with age and were found more frequently in men (25.5% and 37.1%, respectively) than in women (14.9% and 13.0%, respectively). AVC was observed in only 8.5% of subjects wit-hout CAC, while those with CAC 1-99, 100-399, and > 400 Agatston units had AVC prevalences of 36.8%, 56.8%, and 84.0%, respectively. The multivariable logistic regression analyses, adjusted for age, gender, obesity, physical inactivity, hypertension, dyslipidemia and high insulin levels, showed that the presence of CAC (OR [CI95%]: 3.23 [2.26-4.60]), obesity (1.94 [1.35-2.79]), male gender (1.44 [1.01-2.05]) and age (1.08 [1.03-1.10]), were significant independent predictors of AVC. Conclusion: Prevalence of AVC is high and significantly associated with atherosclerotic risk factors and CAC in this Mexican population.
