AI Article Synopsis
- The study explored the link between metabolic syndrome (MetS) and the development of peripheral arterial disease (PAD) and venous thromboembolism (VTE) in a large Asian population using Korean national health data.
- It found that the incidence of PAD was significantly higher in individuals with MetS, while VTE did not show a similar association.
- Among MetS components, elevated fasting glucose, abdominal obesity, and elevated blood pressure were strong predictors for PAD, while abdominal obesity was the only significant predictor for VTE.
Article Abstract
Background: Limited data is available between metabolic syndrome (MetS) and the development of peripheral arterial disease (PAD) or venous thromboembolism (VTE) in the Asian population. We investigated the incidence of PAD and VTE according to the prevalence of MetS and evaluated the impact of individual components in MetS on the development of PAD and VTE using Korean national data.
Methods: Data obtained from national health screening examinations of the Korean National Health Insurance Service from January 1, to December 31, 2009. In total, 9,927,538 participants, 7,830,602 participants were included in this study and the incidence rate of PAD and VTE was investigated retrospectively during a 7-year follow-up. Using the National Cholesterol Education Program Adult Treatment Panel III criteria, patients were placed into one of three groups depending on MetS component numbers: 0 (normal), 1-2 (Pre-MetS), or 3-5 (MetS).
Results: The incidence rates of PAD and VTE in MetS were 2.25% and 0.71%, respectively. After multivariable adjustment, the risk of PAD was significantly associated with MetS (hazard ratio (HR) 1.45, 95% confidence interval (CI) 1.42-1.49), the risk of VTE was not associated with MetS (HR 1.01, 95% CI 0.96-1.05). When subgroup analyses were conducted according to MetS components, elevated fasting glucose (HR 1.26, 95% CI 1.23-1.27), abdominal obesity (HR 1.15, 95% CI 1.12-1.17), and elevated blood pressure (HR 1.13, 95% CI 1.12-1.15) were the most related to PAD. Abdominal obesity (HR 1.104, 95% CI 1.064-1.146) was associated with an increased risk of VTE.
Conclusions: MetS was significantly associated with an increased incidence rate of PAD among the general Korean population. On the other hand, MetS was not associated with the VTE incidence rate. Of the MetS components, only abdominal obesity was a significant predictor of VTE.

Aims: We investigated the association of the inflammatory biomarker YKL-40 with cardiovascular events (CVEs) and mortality in individuals with type 2 diabetes.
Methods: We followed 11,346 individuals recently diagnosed with type 2 diabetes for up to 14 years. Baseline YKL-40 levels (measured in 9,010 individuals) were grouped into percentiles (0-33 %, 34-66 %, 67-90 %, and 91-100 %) and analyzed continuously (per 1 SD log increment), with comparisons to CRP (measured in 9,644 individuals).
Integrative Metabolomics Differentiate Coronary Artery Disease, Peripheral Artery Disease, and Venous Thromboembolism Risks.

Background: Arterial and venous cardiovascular conditions, such as coronary artery disease (CAD), peripheral artery disease (PAD), and venous thromboembolism (VTE), are genetically correlated. Interrogating underlying mechanisms may shed light on disease mechanisms. In this study, we aimed to identify (1) epidemiological and (2) causal, genetic relationships between metabolites and CAD, PAD, and VTE.

Background: Individuals with inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) who lack traditional cardiovascular disease (CVD) risk factors, such as young females, are observed to experience adverse CVD outcomes. Whether women with IBD have increased CVD risk after the menopause transition is unclear.
Methods: We conducted a survival analysis of Women's Health Initiative (WHI) participants and excluded those with missing IBD diagnosis, model covariate data, follow-up data, or a baseline history of the following CVD outcomes: coronary heart disease (CHD), ischemic stroke, venous thromboembolism (VTE), peripheral arterial disease (PAD).

Observational studies have suggested that insulin resistance (IR) is associated with hypertension and various cardiovascular diseases. However, the presence of a causal relationship between IR and cardiovascular disease remains unclear. Here, we applied Mendelian randomization (MR) approaches to address the causal association between genetically determined IR and the risk of cardiovascular diseases.

Objective: In this study, we aimed to: identify and compare (1) epidemiologic and (2) causal, genetic relationships between metabolites and CAD, PAD, and VTE.
