Prognostic impacts of lipoxin A4 in relation to diabetes and insulin resistance in patients with acute myocardial infarction: a prospective study
摘要
To investigate whether the prognostic impact of lipoxin A4 (LXA4) is affected by diabetes mellitus (DM) and insulin resistance (IR), as indicated by the triglyceride-glucose index (TyG).
Materials and methodsA total of 1569 consecutive patients with acute myocardial infarction (AMI) were prospectively recruited between March 2017 and January 2020. Plasma LXA4 levels were determined using enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay. Patients were stratified into four groups according to DM and TyG (high vs. low). The primary outcome was major adverse cardiovascular event (MACE), a composite of all-cause death, recurrent MI, ischemic stroke, and ischemia-driven revascularizations.
ResultsHigh levels of LXA4 (≥ 5.637 ng/mL) were associated lower risk of MACE (hazard ratio [HR]: 0.42, 95% confidence interval [CI]: 0.28–0.65, P < 0.001) in non-DM patients with low TyG (< 5.461) after multiple adjustments, which was not observed in patients with DM or high TyG (P interaction = 0.044). The risk reduction of MACE was mainly driven by fewer recurrent MI (HR, 0.21; 95% CI: 0.08–0.59; P = 0.003) and ischemia-driven revascularizations (HR: 0.45, 95% CI :0.25–0.80, P = 0.007).
ConclusionIn patients with AMI, ischemic risk reduction associated with high LXA4 levels is attenuated by DM and IR.
