Abstract Background Evidence is limited about the joint health effects of the Mediterranean lifestyle on cardiometabolic health and mortality. The aim of this study was to evaluate the association of the Mediterranean lifestyle with the frequency of the metabolic syndrome (MS) and the risk of all-cause and cardiovascular mortality in Spain. Methods Data were taken from ENRICA study, a prospective cohort of 11,090 individuals aged 18+ years, representative of the population of Spain, who were free of cardiovascular disease (CVD) and diabetes at 2008–2010 and were followed-up to 2017. The Mediterranean lifestyle was assessed at baseline with the 27-item MEDLIFE index (with higher score representing better adherence). Results Compared to participants in the lowest quartile of MEDLIFE, those in the highest quartile had a multivariable-adjusted odds ratio 0.73 (95% confidence interval (CI) 0.5, 0.93) for MS, 0.63. (0.51, 0.80) for abdominal obesity, and 0.76 (0.63, 0.90) for low HDL-cholesterol. Similarly, a higher MELDIFE score was associated with lower HOMA-IR and highly-sensitivity C-reactive protein (P-trend < 0.001). During a mean follow-up of 8.7 years, 330 total deaths (74 CVD deaths) were ascertained. When comparing those in highest vs. lowest quartile of MEDLIFE, the multivariable-adjusted hazard ratio (95% CI) was 0.58 (0.37, 0.90) for total mortality and 0.33 (0.11, 1.02) for cardiovascular mortality. Conclusions The Mediterranean lifestyle was associated with lower frequency of MS and reduced all-cause mortality in Spain. Future studies should determine if this also applies to other Mediterranean countries, and also improve cardiovascular health outside the Mediterranean basin.

SummaryGrowing evidence suggests that metabolic syndrome (MetS) has both genetic and environmental bases. We estimated the heritability of the MetS and its components in the families from the Tehran Lipid and Glucose Study (TLGS). We investigated 904 nuclear families in TLGS with two biological parents and at least one offspring (1565 parents and 2448 children), aged 3–90 years, for whom MetS information was available and had at least two members of family with MetS. Variance component methods were used to estimate age and sex adjusted heritability of metabolic syndrome score (MSS) and MetS components using SOLAR software. The heritability of waist circumference (WC), HDL-cholesterol (HDL-C), triglycerides (TGs), fasting blood sugar (FBS), systolic blood pressure (SBP) and diastolic blood pressure (DBP) as continuous traits after adjusting for age and gender were 27, 46, 36, 29, 25, 26 and 15%, respectively, and MSS had a heritability of 15%. When MetS components were analysed as discrete traits, the estimates of age and gender adjusted heritability for MetS, abdominal obesity, low HDL-C, high TG, high FBS and high blood pressure (BP) were 22, 40, 34, 38 and 23%, respectively (P < 0·05). Three factors were extracted from the six continuous traits of the MetS including factor I (BP), factor II (lipids) and factor III (obesity and FBS). Heritability estimation for these three factors were 7, 13 (P < 0·05) and 2%, respectively. The highest heritability was for HDL-C and TG. The results strongly encourage efforts to identify the underlying susceptibility genes.

Experimental studies have suggested that tea consumption could lower the risk of dyslipidaemia. However, epidemiological evidence is limited, especially in southern China, where oolong tea is the most widely consumed beverage. We conducted a population-based case–control study to evaluate the association between consumption of tea, especially oolong tea, and risk of dyslipidaemia in Shantou, southern China, from 2010 to 2011. Information on tea consumption, lifestyle characteristics and food consumption frequency of 1651 patients with newly diagnosed dyslipidaemia and 1390 controls was obtained using a semi-quantitative questionnaire. Anthropometric variables and serum biochemical indices were determined. Drinking more than 600 ml (2 paos) of green, oolong or black tea daily was found to be associated with the lowest odds of dyslipidaemia risk (P< 0·001) when compared with non-consumption, but only oolong tea consumption was found to be associated with low HDL-cholesterol levels. A dose–response relationship between duration of tea consumption and risk of dyslipidaemia (OR 0·10, 95 % CI 0·06, 0·16), as well as that between amount of dried tea leaves brewed and risk of dyslipidaemia (OR 0·34, 95 % CI 0·24, 0·48), was found. Moreover, consumption of oolong tea for the longest duration was found to be associated with 3·22, 11·99 and 6·69 % lower blood total cholesterol, TAG and LDL-cholesterol levels, respectively. In conclusion, the present study indicates that long-term oolong tea consumption may be associated with a lower risk of dyslipidaemia in the population of Shantou in southern China.

Background —HDL cholesterol (HDL-C) is an important independent predictor of atherosclerosis, yet the role that HDL-C may play in the prediction of long-term survival after CABG remains unclear. The risk associated with a low HDL-C level in post-CABG men has not been delineated in relation to traditional surgical variables such as the use of arterial conduits, left ventricular function, and extent of disease. Methods and Results —We performed a prospective, observational study of 432 men who underwent CABG between 1978 and 1979 in whom preoperative HDL-C values were available. Baseline lipid and lipoprotein values, history of diabetes mellitus and hypertension, left ventricular ejection fraction, extent of disease, and use of internal thoracic arteries were recorded. Hazard ratios (HRs) were determined in the patients with and without a low HDL-C level, which was defined as the lowest HDL-C quartile (HDL-C ≤35 mg/dL). After adjustment for age, as well as for baseline metabolic parameters and surgical variables just noted, HDL-C corresponded to both overall (HR 0.40, CI 0.20 to 0.83, P =0.01) and event-free (HR 0.41, CI 0.24 to 0.70, P =0.001) survival. Patients with a high HDL-C level (>35 mg/dL) were 50% more likely to survive at 15 years than were patients with low HDL-C level (≤35 mg/dL) (74% versus 57% adjusted survival, respectively; HR 1.72, P =0.005). In addition, HDL-C showed a strong effect on time-to-event survival such that patients with an HDL-C level of >35 mg/dL were 50% more likely to survive without a subsequent myocardial infarction or revascularization (HR 1.42, P =0.02). Conclusions —HDL-C is an important predictor of survival in post-CABG patients. In this study of >8500 patient-years of follow-up, HDL-C was the most important metabolic predictor of post-CABG survival. One third fewer patients survive at 15 years if their HDL-C levels are ≤35 mg/dL at the time of CABG. The measurement of HDL-C provides a compelling strategy for the identification of high-risk subsets of patients who undergo CABG.

Background: Increased lipid peroxidation is associated with accelerated progression of atherosclerosis. Paraoxonase (PON1) is an antioxidative enzyme in high density lipoproteins (HDL), which protects against lipid per oxidation and Coronary Artery Disease (CAD). PON 1 activity is under genetic control and its molecular basis is a polymorphism in the PON 1 gene that shows two common isoforms: Q (192 Gln) with high ability to protect LDL from lipid peroxidation in vitro, and R (Arg) with lower ability. Aim: To explore the interaction of the R allele paraoxonase gene and low HDL cholesterol concentrations, in CAD risk emergence. Methods: 818 individuals participated in the study, 298 coronary patients, 55.0±10.3 years, 78.9% male sex, and 520 healthy controls, 47.3±12.6 years, 57.5% male sex, age and sex matched. Low HDL-C was defined as <0.90 mmol/L in men and < 1.11 mmol/L in the women. Comparisons of genotypes between cases and control subjects were performed by a chi-square test. Statistical significance was accepted at p<0.05. Odds ratio as well as their 95% confidence intervals for the RR genotypes and HDL deficient subjects were computed using univariate analysis (2x2 tables). To determine the interaction between the RR paraoxonase genotype and HDL-deficient subjects, we used the epidemiologic tables 4x2 and the synergy measures: the additive model (Rothman’s synergy index) and the multiplicative model (Khoury’s synergy index). We calculated the relative excess risk (RERI) and the attributable proportion (AP) due to interaction (Rothman). Results: The PON 1 RR192 is associated with coronary heart disease [OR=1.61; p=0.043] in whole population. The HDL-deficient subjects 192 RR homozygotes showed an increased risk of CAD (OR=17.38; p< 0.0001) compared to normal HDL 192 RR (OR=1.39; p=0.348) and HDL-deficient subjects not carrying RR genotype (OR=7.79; p<0.0001). The genotype PON 192 RR increases the risk of CAD in the HDL-deficient populations (SI=2.3, SIM=1.6). The attributable proportion due to this interaction (AP) was 0.53, meaning that 53% of CAD was explained by this interaction. Conclusion: These data suggest the existence of a synergistic effect of the RR 192 PON 1 genotype (with lower ability) and HDL-deficient subjects in CAD emergence.
