With a lipid lowering therapy (LLT), most individuals with FH may have a longer ASCVD-free survival. However, there is scant data about older individuals with FH. Methods: We compared characteristics of genetically defined FH older individuals with age-matched non-FH counterparts. Results: From 4111 genotyped individuals, 462 older than 60 years were included (198 positive and 264 negative for FH variants). There were no differences regarding median age [%25; 75%] 66.0 (62.0; 71.0) and 66.0 (62.2; 71.0) years, p = 0.68 for FH and non-FH, respectively. In both groups, there was a higher frequency of females, however, there were more males in the FH group 37.4% vs. 24.2%, p = 0.002. No differences were seen between FH and non-FH in LLT use: 88.5% vs. 91.5%, p = 0.29. Despite a longer LLT duration in FH patients (with 11.0 (7.0; 20.0) vs. 7.0 (3.0; 13.0) years, p < 0.001), treatment was started late in both groups: at 54.0 (47.0; 61.0) and 59.0 (52.0; 64.0) years, p < 0.001, in FH and non-FH, respectively. FH had greater frequencies of previous and early ASCVD (40.9% vs. 27.3%, p = 0.002, and 22.2% vs. 9.0%, p < 0.001). In FH, male sex [HR (95%C01 2.67 (1.50-4.73), p = 0.001, and LLT onset age 0.96 (0.93-0.99), p = 0.009, were independently associated with ASCVD. Conclusions: Among hypercholesterolemic older individuals participating in a cascade screening program, the genetic diagnosis of FH was associated with higher ASCVD rates, emphasizing the relevance of a monogenic defect as the cause of long-lasting hypercholesterolemia and ASCVD risk, particularly in men.
- Familial hypercholesterolemia in Brazil: Cascade screening program, clinical and genetic aspects(2015) JANNES, Cinthia E.; SANTOS, Raul D.; SILVA, Pamela R. de Souza; TUROLLA, Luciana; GAGLIARDI, Ana C. M.; MARSIGLIA, Julia D. C.; CHACRA, Ana P.; MINAME, Marcio H.; ROCHA, Viviane Z.; SALGADO FILHO, Wilson; KRIEGER, Jose E.; PEREIRA, Alexandre C.Background: There is little knowledge about familial hypercholesterolemia in Brazil. This study presents the first results of genetic cascade screening performed in the city of Sao Paulo. Material and methods: Two-hundred and forty-eight suspected index cases were initially included. DNA was extracted from peripheral blood and the complete coding sequence of low-density lipoprotein receptor, exon 7 of proprotein convertase subtilisin/kexin type 9 gene and part of exon 26 of apolipoprotein B genes were sequenced. Multiplex Ligation-dependent Probe Amplification was performed on cases where a causal mutation was not identified through sequencing. After the identification of a causal mutation screening in first-degree relatives was pursued. Results: From 248 index cases, a mutation was found in 125 individuals (50.4%). 394 relatives were included in the cascade screening program and a mutation was identified in 59.4%. Seventy different causal mutations in the low-density lipoprotein receptor gene (97.2%) and 2 in the apolipoprotein B gene (2.8%) were found. No mutations were encountered in the proprotein convertase subtilisin/ kexin type 9 gene. Mutations in exons 14 and 4 were the most prevalent and, 10 cases of true homozygotes (8 index cases and 2 relatives) and 1 compound heterozygote were identified. The most frequent mutation found was of Lebanese origin, the p.(Cys681*) mutation in exon 14 (8.5%). Conclusion: Genetic familial hypercholesterolemia cascade screening is feasible in Brazil and leads to identification of a mutation in approximately half of the index cases with higher rates of success in their relatives.
