Body mass index as a contributor to the accumulation of lipidic plaque materials in statin-treated type 2 diabetic patients with coronary artery disease: sub-analysis from the OPTIMAL randomized study

Zusammenfassung:Abstract Background Patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus more likely exhibit obesity. Pathophysiologically, obesity promotes a range of metabolic disturbances including insulin resistance, dyslipidemia and hypertension, in addition to the secretion of adipokines and pro-inflammatory cytokines from excessive fat accumulation. These atherogenic features may promote instability of atherosclerotic plaques, which ultimately result in elevating a risk of atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease. However, it remains to be fully elucidated how obesity affects atherosclerotic plaque features in type 2 diabetic patients with coronary artery disease (CAD). Near-infrared spectroscopy (NIRS) imaging enables to quantitatively visualize lipidic plaque materials in vivo. This imaging modality provides insights into lipidic plaque features in obese patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus. Purpose To elucidate the association of body mass index (BMI, kg/m2) with lipidic plaque materials in type 2 diabetic patients. Methods The OPTIMAL study was a prospective randomized controlled trial to evaluate the efficacy of continuous glucose monitoring (CGM) guided glycemic control on coronary atherosclerosis in statin-treated type 2 diabetic participants with CAD requiring PCI. 94 patients were randomized into CGM-guided or HbA1c-guided glycemic control. Serial NIRS imaging was conducted to monitor non-culprit lesions at baseline and week 48. The current sub-analysis included 78 patients with both baseline BMI data and evaluable baseline NIRS/IVUS images. Results All of study subjects received a statin (high-intensity statin use=36%), and the averaged LDL-C level was 86.7±26.3 mg/dL. The average BMI and HbA1c level were 24.7±3.1 kg/m2 and 7.5±0.9%, respectively (Table 1). On NIRS imaging analysis, maxLCBI4mm at non-culprit lesions was 286.2±167.0, and 21.8% of study subjects exhibited maxLCBI4mm >400 (Table 2). BMI was associated with maxLCBI4mm (p
