The Relationship

Objective. To examine the relationship between depressive symptoms and cardiovascular disease (CVD) risk factors in a group of African American individuals.Design. A nonrandom sample of 253 (age 43.7 ± 11.6 years; 37% male) African American individuals was recruited by advertisements. Data were obtained by validated questionnaires, anthropometric, blood pressure, and blood sample measurements.Results. Regression analyses were performed to assess the relationship between depressive symptoms and CVD risk factors controlling for socioeconomic status indicators. These analyses demonstrated that those with higher levels of depressive symptoms had larger waist-to-hip ratios, higher percent body fat, higher triglycerides, and were more likely to be smokers.Conclusions. It has been well documented that higher levels of depressive symptoms are associated with higher CVD risk. However, this evidence is derived primarily from samples of predominantly Caucasian individuals. The present investigation demonstrates that depressive symptoms are related to CVD risk factors in African American individuals.

The Relationship

Vascular injury mobilizes bone marrow–derived proangiogenic cells into the circulation, where these cells can facilitate vascular repair and new vessel formation. We sought to determine the relationship between a new biomarker of circulating bone marrow–derived proangiogenic cell activity, the presence of atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease (CVD) and its risk factors, and clinical outcomes. Circulating proangiogenic cell activity was estimated using a reproducible angiogenic colony-forming unit (CFU-A) assay in 532 clinically stable subjects aged 20 to 90 years and ranging in the CVD risk spectrum from those who are healthy without risk factors to those with active CVD. CFU-A counts increased with the burden of CVD risk factors ( p < 0.001). CFU-A counts were higher in subjects with symptomatic CVD than in those without ( p < 0.001). During follow-up of 232 subjects with CVD, CFU-A counts were higher in those with death, myocardial infarction, or stroke than in those without (110 [70–173] vs 84 [51–136], p = 0.01). Therefore, we conclude that circulating proangiogenic cell activity, as estimated by CFU-A counts, increases with CVD risk factor burden and in the presence of established CVD. Furthermore, higher circulating proangiogenic cell activity is associated with worse clinical outcome in those with CVD.

Cardiovascular disease is the most frequent cause of death in patient with diabetes. It is difficult to evaluate cardiovascular status of patients with diabetes because of complex symptomatology. NTproBNP, a split peptide from pro BNP molecule is a novel biomarker, released from cardiac myocytes in response to myocardial stretch, cardio vascular disease, endothelial dysfunction and heart failure. We aimed to test that is elevated NTproBNP levels associated with increased risk of cardiovascular disease in diabetes patients in comparison to matched control. Demographic, anthropometric measure, NT pro BNP, lipid profile, blood glucose were estimated and compared among angiographically proven cardiovascular disease patients with diabetes and healthy controls. Univariate and multivariate analysis were carried out to compare individual factor using t-Test, ANOVA and the inter group comparisons were done by using Bon ferroni Post Hoc test. Patients with type 2 diabetes were shown to have higher NTproBNP values (n=50, 1481.021±813.405) than control subjects (n=50, 23.562±23.395) (p <0.05). NTproBNP levels were independently related to diabetes after adjustment for age, sex, family history, smoking, obesity, blood pressure and lipid profile. Our data suggests that the secretion of NT pro BNP is increased in type II diabetes patients, suggesting association of diabetes and NTproBNP in cardio vascular disease with higher prevalence. Thus NTproBNP may serve as a screening tool to diagnose patients with type II diabetes with cardiovascular disease having complex symptomatology.
