Increased homocysteine and lipoprotein(a) levels highlight systemic atherosclerotic burden in patients with a history of acute coronary syndromes

Background Strong evidence supports an association between high levels of homocysteine (Hcy) and lipoprotein(a) [Lp(a)] and an increased rate of ischemic vascular events. Methods The study population comprised 162 patients (50 women [30.9%]; age, 66.71 ± 12.76 years) having a history of acute corona...

description Background Strong evidence supports an association between high levels of homocysteine (Hcy) and lipoprotein(a) [Lp(a)] and an increased rate of ischemic vascular events. Methods The study population comprised 162 patients (50 women [30.9%]; age, 66.71 ± 12.76 years) having a history of acute coronary syndrome within 1 year who underwent fasting blood sampling, measurement of intima-media thickness and pulse wave velocity at the common carotid and femoral arteries by Doppler ultrasound, and ankle-brachial index measurement. Cutoff values were considered 0.9 mm and 1.2 mm for carotid and femoral intima-media thickness, respectively; 12 m/s for pulse wave velocity; and

Cutoff values were considered 0.9 mm and 1.2 mm for carotid and femoral intima-media thickness, respectively; 12 m/s for pulse wave velocity; and &lt;0.9 for ankle-brachial index. We included hypertension, dyslipidemia, diabetes, overweight/obesity, smoking, and family history of cardiovascular disease in the count of traditional risk factors (CRFs). Adding Hcy ≥15 μmol/L and Lp(a) ≥500 mg/L to CRFs, we obtained a new score, named TOTAL. Results On univariate analysis, Hcy and Lp(a) were significantly associated with presence of atherosclerotic extracoronary lesions (for Hcy: β = .934; standard error = 0.178; P  &lt; .0001; for Lp(a): β = .961; standard error = 0.177; P  &lt; .0001) and compliance alterations (for Hcy: odds ratio, 13.3; 95% confidence interval, 3.9-45.3; P  &lt; .0001; for Lp(a): odds ratio, 14.6; 95% confidence interval, 5.69-37.62; P  &lt; .0001).
