Genes That Extend Lifespan May Do So by Mitigating the Increased Risk of Death Posed by Having Hypertension
Am J Hypertens. 2023 Aug 10:hpad070. doi: 10.1093/ajh/hpad070. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTGenetic factors influence lifespan. In humans, there appears to be a particularly strong genetic effect in those aged ≥ 90 years. An important contribution is nutrient sensing genes which confer cell resilience. Our research has been investigating the genetic factors by longitudinal studies of American men of Japanese descent living on the island of Oahu in Hawaii. This cohort began as the Honolulu Heart Program in the mid-1960s and most subjects are now deceased. We previously discovered various genes containing polymorphisms as...

Bioinformatic platforms for clinical stratification of natural history of atherosclerotic cardiovascular diseases
Eur Heart J Cardiovasc Pharmacother. 2023 Aug 10:pvad059. doi: 10.1093/ehjcvp/pvad059. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTAlthough bioinformatic methods gained a lot of attention in the latest years, their use in real-world studies for primary and secondary prevention of atherosclerotic cardiovascular diseases (ASCVD) is still lacking. Bioinformatic resources have been applied to thousands of individuals from the Framingham Heart Study as well as health care-associated biobanks such as the UK Biobank, the Million Veteran Program, and the CARDIoGRAMplusC4D Consortium and randomized controlled trials (i.e. ODYSSEY, FOURIER, ASPRE...

Impact of United States refugee ban and discrimination on the mental health of hypertensive Arabic-speaking refugees
This study qualitatively explores the impact of the refugee ban on United States resettled Syrian and Iraqi refugees with hypertension.MethodsParticipants were recruited through a federally qualified health center system that is the largest healthcare provider for refugees in San Diego, CA. All participants were Arabic-speaking refugees diagnosed with hypertension from Syria and Iraq. In-depth interviews took place between April 2021 and April 2022. Inductive thematic analysis was used to analyze data from semi-structured interviews.ResultsParticipants (N = 109) include 53 women and 56 men (23 Syrian, 86 Iraqi). The av...

Age-Related Differences in the Contribution of Systolic Blood Pressure and Biomarkers to Cardiovascular Disease Risk Prediction: The Atherosclerosis Risk in Communities (ARIC) Study
We sought to determine how biomarkers known to be associated with hypertension-induced end-organ injury complement the use of systolic blood pressure (SBP) for cardiovascular disease (CVD) risk prediction at different ages. Using data from visits 2 (1990 to 1992) and 5 (2011 to 2013) of the Atherosclerosis Risk in Communities (ARIC) study, 3 models were used to predict CVD (composite of coronary heart disease, stroke, and heart failure). Model A included traditional risk factors (TRFs) except SBP, model B —TRF plus SBP, and model C—TRF plus biomarkers (high-sensitivity troponin T [hsTnT] and N-terminal pro-B-type natri...
