Background and aims: Psychosocial factors such as depression, character traits, and lack of social support have been associated with increased risk of cardiovascular disease (CVD). However, data of peripheral artery disease (PAD) in this regard are sparse. Since risk factor profiles differ across atherosclerotic CVD (ASCVD) subtypes, to appreciate the contribution of psychosocial factors to overall ASCVD, we aimed to comprehensively explore the association of psychosocial factors with the risk of PAD and ASCVD in a community cohort. Methods: We included 12,090 participants from the Atherosclerosis Risk in Communities (ARIC) Study (mean age 56.7 [SD 5.7] years) free of PAD and ASCVD at baseline (1990-1992). Depressive symptom was evaluated by the Maastricht Questionnaire (MQ). Trait anger was assessed by the Spielberger Trait Anger Scale. Social support was measured by the Interpersonal Support Evaluation List, while the extent of social networks was evaluated by the Lubben Social Network Scale. PAD events were defined as hospitalizations with PAD diagnosis and procedures. ASCVD included adjudicated myocardial infarction, fatal coronary disease, and ischemic stroke events. Results: We observed 429 PAD and 2,539 ASCVD events during a median follow-up of 23.1 years. The cumulative incidence of PAD was highest in the highest quartile of MQ score. This association remained after adjusting for traditional CVD risk factors, socioeconomic status, and physical activity. A weaker association was observed for ASCVD. Social support also showed independent association with incident PAD, but not with ASCVD. Trait anger and social network were not significantly associated with either PAD or ASCVD (Table). Conclusions: Psychosocial factors demonstrated more evident associations with PAD than ASCVD. Our results suggest the importance of considering PAD when assessing the overall impact of those factors on CVD. Future studies are needed to explore potential mechanisms behind our observation.
