    Adherence to a Mediterranean diet, dyslipidemia and inflammation in familial hypercholesterolemia
    (2021) ANTONIAZZI, Luiza; ARROYO-OLIVARES, Raquel; BITTENCOURT, Marcio S.; TADA, Mauricio T.; LIMA, Isabella; JANNES, Cinthia E.; KRIEGER, Jose E.; PEREIRA, Alexandre C.; QUINTANA-NAVARRO, Gracia; MUNIZ-GRIJALVO, Ovidio; DIAZ-DIAZ, Jose L.; ALONSO, Rodrigo; MATA, Pedro; SANTOS, Raul D.
    Background and aims: Familial Hypercholesterolemia (FH) is characterized by elevated LDL-cholesterol (LDL-C) and high atherosclerosis risk. The impact of different dietary patterns on atherosclerosis biomarkers has been poorly studied in FH. This study verified the association of adherence to a Mediterranean diet with biomarkers of dyslipidemia and low-grade inflammation in molecularly proven FH adults from Brazil (BR) and Spain (SP). Methods and results: In this cross-sectional study adherence to the Mediterranean diet was assessed by a validated score and generalized estimating equations were used to evaluate its association with plasma LDL-C, apolipoprotein-B (ApoB) and high sensitivity C-reactive protein (hsCRP) concentrations. We included 92 (mean age 45 years, 58.7% females) and 98 FH individuals (mean age 46.8 years, 60.2% females) respectively from BR and SP. FH causing variants did not differ between countries. LDL-C, ApoB and hs-CRP concentrations were higher in BR than in SP: 179 (135-250) and 161 (133-193) mg/dL; 141 (109-181) and 103 (88-134) mg/dL; and 1.6 (0.8-4.0) and 0.8 (0.4-1.5) mg/L respectively (all p < 0.001). Most of BR had low adherence (n = 77, 83.7%), while the majority of SP were divided into moderate (n = 35, 35.7%) and strong adherence to the Mediterranean diet (n = 37, 37.8%), p < 0.001. There was a significant inverse association of adherence to the Mediterranean diet score with higher LDL-C, ApoB, and hs-CRP after adjusting for socio economic parameters, caloric and fatty acid intakes as well as pharmacological lipid lowering therapies. Conclusions: Higher adherence to a Mediterranean diet was associated with better dyslipidemia and low-grade inflammation profiles in FH.

    Familial hypercholesterolemia and cardiovascular disease in older individuals
    (2021) COUTINHO, Elaine R.; MINAME, Marcio H.; ROCHA, Viviane Z.; BITTENCOURT, Marcio S.; JANNES, Cinthia E.; TADA, Mauricio T.; LIMA, Isabella R.; SALGADO FILHO, Wilson; CHACRA, Ana P.; PEREIRA, Alexandre C.; KRIEGER, Jose E.; SANTOS, Raul D.
    Background and aims: Familial hypercholestemlemia (FH) is characterized by high LDL-cholesterol (LDL-C) and early atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease (ASCVD). 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.
