RESUMO

BACKGROUND: Type 2 diabetes is a condition associated with a state of low-grade inflammation caused by adipose tissue dysfunction and insulin resistance. High sensitive-CRP (hs-CRP) is a marker for systemic low-grade inflammation and higher plasma levels have been associated with cardiovascular events in various populations. The aim of the current study is to evaluate the relation between hs-CRP and incident cardiovascular events and all-cause mortality in high-risk type 2 diabetes patients. METHODS: Prospective cohort study of 1679 type 2 diabetes patients included in the Second Manifestations of ARTerial disease (SMART). Cox proportional hazard models were used to evaluate the risk of hs-CRP on cardiovascular events (composite of myocardial infarction, stroke and vascular mortality) and all-cause mortality. Hs-CRP was log-transformed for continuous analyses. Findings were adjusted for age, sex, BMI, current smoking and alcohol use, non-HDL-cholesterol and micro-albuminuria. RESULTS: 307 new cardiovascular events and 343 deaths occurred during a median follow-up of 7.8 years (IQR 4.2-11.1). A one unit increase in log(hs-CRP) was related to an increased vascular- and all-cause mortality risk (HR 1.21, 95% CI 1.01-1.46 and HR 1.26, 95% CI 1.10-1.45 respectively). No relation was found between log(hs-CRP) and myocardial infarction or stroke. The relations were similar in patients with and without previous vascular disease. CONCLUSION: Low grade inflammation, as measured by hs-CRP, is an independent risk factor for vascular- and all-cause mortality but not for cardiovascular events in high-risk type 2 diabetes patients. Chronic low-grade inflammation may be a treatment target to lower residual cardiovascular risk in type 2 diabetes patients.

RESUMO

AIM: To quantify the magnitude and specific contributions of known cardiovascular risk factors leading to higher cardiovascular risk and all-cause mortality caused by type 2 diabetes (T2D). METHODS: Mediation analysis was performed to assess the relative contributions of known classical risk factors for vascular disease in T2D (insulin resistance, systolic blood pressure, renal function, LDL-cholesterol, triglycerides and micro-albuminuria), and what proportion of the effect of T2D on cardiovascular events and all-cause mortality these factors mediate in the Second Manifestations of ARTerial disease (SMART) cohort consisting of 1910 T2D patients. RESULTS: Only 35% (95% CI 15-71%) of the excess cardiovascular risk caused by T2D is mediated by the classical cardiovascular risk factors. The largest mediated effect was through insulin resistance [proportion of mediated effect (PME) 18%, 95% CI 3-37%], followed by elevated triglycerides (PME 8%, 95% CI 4-14%) and micro-albuminuria (PME 7%, 95% CI 3-17%). Only 42% (95% CI 18-73%) of the excess mortality risk was mediated by the classical risk factors considered. The largest mediated effect was by micro-albuminuria (PME 18%, 95% CI 10-29%) followed by insulin resistance (PME 15%, 95% CI 1-33%). CONCLUSION: A substantial amount of the increased cardiovascular risk and all-cause mortality caused by T2D cannot be explained by traditional vascular risk factors. Future research should focus on identifying non-classical pathways that might further explain the increased cardiovascular and mortality risk caused by T2D.

RESUMO

OBJECTIVE: To evaluate whether low HDL cholesterol (HDL-c) levels are a risk factor for cardiovascular disease and mortality in patients with type 2 diabetes and whether it remains a residual risk factor when attaining low LDL cholesterol (LDL-c) treatment goals or when LDL-c is treated with intensive lipid-lowering therapy. RESEARCH DESIGN AND METHODS: We performed a prospective cohort study of 1,829 patients with type 2 diabetes included in the Second Manifestations of ARTerial disease (SMART) cohort. Cox proportional hazard models were used to evaluate the risk of HDL-c on cardiovascular events and all-cause mortality. Analyses were performed in strata of LDL-c levels (<2.0, 2.0-2.5, and >2.5 mmol/L) and lipid-lowering therapy intensity and were adjusted for age, sex, BMI, smoking, alcohol, LDL-c, triglycerides, systolic blood pressure, estimated glomerular filtration rate, glucose, and HbA1c. RESULTS: A total of 335 new cardiovascular events and 385 deaths occurred during a median follow-up of 7.0 years (interquartile range 3.9-10.4). No relation was found between plasma HDL-c and cardiovascular events (hazard ratio [HR] 0.97, 95% CI 0.93-1.01) or all-cause mortality (HR 0.99, 95% CI 0.96-1.03). Subgroup analysis supported effect modification by plasma LDL-c levels. In patients with LDL-c levels <2.0 mmol/L, higher HDL-c was related to higher risk for all-cause mortality (HR 1.14, 95% CI 1.07-1.21). Higher HDL-c was also related to higher risk for cardiovascular events in patients with LDL-c levels <2.0 mmol/L (HR 1.10, 95% CI 1.07-1.21) in contrast to patients with LDL-c levels between 2.0 and 2.5 mmol/L (HR 0.85, 95% CI 0.75-0.95) and >2.5 mmol/L (HR 0.96, 95% CI 0.91-1.00). CONCLUSIONS: In high-risk patients with type 2 diabetes with LDL-c levels <2.0 mmol/L, higher HDL-c at baseline is unexpectedly related to a higher risk for cardiovascular events and all-cause mortality in contrast to high-risk patients with type 2 diabetes with LDL-c levels between 2.0 and 2.5 mmol/L.

RESUMO

BACKGROUND: Drug-induced torsade de pointes (TdP) arrhythmias can readily be induced in anesthetized dogs with remodeled hearts [chronic complete atrioventricular block (CAVB) dogs]. Similar studies in conscious CAVB dogs reveal lower TdP incidences. Regulations forced us to reconsider our anesthetic regimen, which consist of pentobarbital followed by halothane (P + H). We investigated the relevance of anesthesia for this enhanced susceptibility (part 1) and compared 3 anesthetic regimens (part 2). METHODS: Part 1-Ten CAVB dogs paced from the high septum at 1000 milliseconds were challenged with dofetilide (25 microg x kg(-1) x 5 min(-1)) twice: once under anesthesia and once awake. Anesthesia consisted of P + H (n = 5) and thiopental maintained by isoflurane (T + I). Part 2-In CAVB dogs (n = 6) with spontaneous idioventricular rhythm, the electrophysiological and arrhythmogenic consequences of different anesthetic regimens (P + H, T + I, and P + I) were serially compared. RESULTS: Part 1-In paced dogs, dofetilide-induced TdP was higher under anesthetized than in conscious circumstances, with the more severe outcome seen after T + I as compared with P + H or control (2x): 5/5, 2/5, 0/5, and 0/5, respectively; P < 0.05. Part 2-Electrophysiologically, T accelerated idioventricular rhythm, increased QTc, and transiently induced polymorphic ventricular tachycardias in 2 of 6 dogs. This was not seen after P. At 120 minutes (end of the preparation), QTc increase was highest after T + I, intermediate with P + I, and the smallest after P + H. Dofetilide in combination with T + I induced the most severe arrhythmogenic outcome. CONCLUSIONS: Thiopental anesthesia causes arrhythmias sec, whereas anesthesia in general predisposes for drug-induced TdP in the CAVB dog. In combination with dofetilide, T + I has a more arrhythmic outcome than P + I or P + H.
