Evidence shows that objectives for detecting and controlling cardiovascular risk factors are not being effectively met, and moreover, outcomes differ between men and women. This study will assess the gender-related differences in diagnostic inertia around the three most prevalent cardiovascular risk factors: dyslipidemia, arterial hypertension, and diabetes mellitus, and to evaluate the consequences on cardiovascular disease incidence. This is an epidemiological and cohort study. Eligible patients will be adults who presented to public primary health care centers in a Spanish region from 2008 to 2011, with hypertension, dyslipidemia, or/and diabetes and without cardiovascular disease. Participants’ electronic health records will be used to collect the study variables in a window of six months from inclusion. Diagnostic inertia of hypertension, dyslipidemia, and/or diabetes is defined as the registry of abnormal diagnostic parameters—but no diagnosis—on the person’s health record. The cohort will be followed from the date of inclusion until the end of 2019. Outcomes will be cardiovascular events, defined as hospital admission due to ischemic cardiopathy, stroke, and death from any cause. The results of this study could inform actions to rectify the structure, organization and training of health care teams in order to correct the inequality.

Abstract Background and aim Prevention of heart failure (HF) relies on early identification and elimination of cardiovascular risk factors. ACC/AHA guidelines define consecutive asymptomatic precursor stages of HF, i.e. stage A (with risk factors for HF), and stage B (asymptomatic cardiac dysfunction). We aimed to identify frequency and characteristics of individuals at risk for HF, i.e. stage A and B, in the general population. Methods The prospective Characteristics and Course of Heart Failure Stages A-B and Determinants of Progression (STAAB) cohort study phenotyped a representative sample of 5000 residents (aged 30–79 y) of a medium sized German town, reporting no previous HF diagnosis. Echocardiography was highly quality-controlled. We applied these definitions: HF stage A: ≥1 risk factor for HF (hypertension, arteriosclerotic disease, diabetes mellitus, obesity, metabolic syndrome), but no structural heart disease (SHD); HF stage B: asymptomatic but SHD [reduced left ventricular (LV) ejection fraction, LV hypertrophy, LV dilation, stenosis or grade 2/3 regurgitation of aortic/mitral valve, grade 2/3 diastolic dysfunction], or prior myocardial infarction; Normal (N): no risk factor and no SHD. We focused on subjects in stage B without apparent cardiovascular risk factors qualifying for A (B-not-A) compared to those with risk factors (BA) and N. The first half of the sample (n=2473) served as derivation set (D), the second half (n=2434) as validation set (V). Results We found 42% (D)/45% (V) of subjects in stage A, and 18% (D)/17% (V) in stage B. Among stage B subjects, 31% (D)/29% (V) were B-not-A. Compared to BA, B-not-A subjects were younger [47 vs. 63 y (D)/50 vs 63 years (V); both p<0.001] and more often female [78% vs 56% (D)/79% vs 62% (V); both p<0.001], had higher LV ejection fraction [59% vs 56% (D)/53% vs 48% (V); both p<0.05], lower E/e' [6.7 vs 9.9 (D)/6.9 vs. 9.3 (V); both p<0.001], higher LV volume [64 vs 59 mL/m2 (D)/54 vs 48 mL/m2 (V); both p≤0.01], lower hemoglobin [13.3 vs 13.9 g/dL (D, p=0.02)/13.4 vs 13.8 g/dL (V, p=0.08); both adjusted for sex], and lower QTc interval [423 vs 433 ms (D)/427 vs 438 ms (V); both p≤0.001). Compared to N, subjects in B-not-A were more often female [78% vs 56% (D)/79% vs 61% (V); both p<0.001], had larger QTc interval [423 vs 418 ms (D)/427 vs 420 ms (V); both p<0.05], and more often anemia [11% vs 5% (D, p=0.02)/9% vs 5% (V, p=0.12)]. Conclusions We confirmed, by extensive internal validation, the presence of a hitherto undescribed group of individuals with relevant myocardial alterations, but lacking respective risk factors. Since algorithms in primary prevention do not include echocardiography, this subgroup might be missed. Further investigations should 1) externally validate our finding, 2) study the prognostic course of subjects in group B-not-A, and 3) elaborate the material differences between B-not-A and N to identify potential further novel risk factors for HF.
