A terapia anti-retroviral altamente potente (HAART), determinou uma melhora significativa do prognóstico dos pacientes vivendo com HIV/aids. Contudo, a presença de toxicidades agudas e crônicas, incluindo risco aumentado de doenças cardiovasculares, acarretou novas implicações para a qualidade e expectativa de vida destes pacientes. O objetivo deste estudo foi determinar o risco cardiovascular de pacientes HIV/aids tratados e nãotratados com esquema HAART. De 02/2008 a 07/2009 foram incluídos 118 indivíduos entre 18 e 70 anos, procedentes do Instituto de Infectologia Emílio Ribas e do Hospital Universitário da USP, além de voluntários saudáveis. Os indivíduos foram distribuídos em 4 grupos: (1) pacientes com infecção pelo HIV em uso de HAART; (2) pacientes com infecção pelo HIV sem tratamento (naïve); (3) pacientes diabéticos não insulino-dependentes (DM); (4) controle. Foram avaliados em todos os participantes: parâmetros bioquímicos, teste de tolerância oral à glicose, PCR ultra-sensível, microalbuminúria, sorologias para hepatite B e hepatite C, ECG, EMI, VOP, escore de risco de Framingham (ERF) e presença de síndrome metabólica (SM). Os pacientes DM tinham idade mais avançada (51,7 ± 9,7 anos) e 75, 8% eram do sexo feminino. Os dados foram ajustados para a idade (média ± erro-padrão). A relação cintura-quadril foi maior no grupo HAART que no controle (0,94 ± 0,01 vs. 0,88 ± 0,01, p< 0,0001); a pressão arterial sistólica média aferida no dia da visita foi maior no grupo HAART comparado ao grupo naive e controle (124,7 ± 2,3 vs. 118,1 ± 2,4 vs. 119,8 ± 2,2 mmHg, respectivamente; p= 0,001 e p= 0,005), e a pressão arterial diastólica média foi maior no grupo HAART que no naive (78,2 ± 1,8 vs. 75,9 ± 1,9 mmHg, respectivamente; p= 0,03); os níveis séricos de triglicérides estavam mais elevados no grupo HAART comparado aos grupos naive e controle (233,7 ± 193,4 vs. 137,3 ± 108,6 vs. 147,2 ± 87,3 mg/dL, respectivamente; p= 0,03 e p=0,04); microalbuminúria foi maior no grupo HAART que nos grupos naive e DM (86,2 ± 27,3 vs. 49,8 ± 30,5 vs. 30,8 ± 30,6 mg/dL, respectivamente; p= 0,01 e p= 0,009). A EMI da carótida direita foi maior no grupo naive comparado aos grupos HAART e controle (0,55 ± 0,02 vs. 0,52 ± 0,02 vs. 0,52 ± 0,02 mm, respectivamente; p< 0,0001), enquanto a EMI da carótida esquerda foi maior no grupo HAART comparado aos grupos naive e DM (0,64 ± 0,04 vs. 0,53 ± 0,04 vs. 0,52 ± 0,04, respectivamente; p< 0,0001). Houve diferença significativa em relação à VOP entre os grupos HAART e controle (9,7 ± 1,8 vs 8,7 ± 0,03 m/seg, p = 0,03). SM foi mais freqüente no grupo HAART que nos grupos naive e controle (41,4% vs. 25,0% vs. 28,1%, p= 0,0001). O ERF evidenciou risco alto em 27,6% dos pacientes do grupo HAART, o que foi significativo em relação aos grupos naive e controle (p=0,003). O nadir de CD4 foi menor nos pacientes do grupo HAART comparado ao grupo naive (208 ± 191 vs. 449 ± 176 células/L, p< 0,0001). A carga viral atual foi maior no grupo naive que no grupo HAART (13.633 ± 25.314 vs. 76 ± 61 cópias/ml, p= 0,005). Este estudo demonstra que pacientes com infecção pelo HIV em uso de HAART apresentam maior risco cardiovascular em relação aos pacientes não-tratados, evidenciado pela presença de maior freqüência de SM, maior ERF, maior rigidez arterial e presença de aterosclerose prematura mensurada pelo EMI da carótida esquerda. Isto ocorreu mesmo na ausência de viremia detectável, o que significa que devemos ter atenção para o risco de aterosclerose subclinica no seguimento de pacientes HIV/aids sob adequado tratamento antiretroviral, inclusive com eficaz controle imunológico e virológico. / The highly active antiretroviral therapy (HAART), led to a significant improvement in the prognosis of patients living with HIV/AIDS. However, the presence of acute and chronic toxicities, including increased risk of cardiovascular disease, yielded further implications for the quality and life expectancy of these patients. The aim of this study was to determine the cardiovascular risk of HIV/AIDS patients treated and untreated with HAART. From february/2008 to july/2009 we enrolled 118 subjects between 18 and 70 years, attending at the Institute of Infectious Diseases Emilio Ribas and the University Hospital from USP, as well as healthy volunteers. The subjects were divided into 4 groups: (1) patients with HIV-infection on HAART; (2) patients with untreated HIV-infection (ART-naive); (3) diabetic patients not insulin-dependent (DM); (4) controls. Were evaluated in all participants: biochemical parameters, oral glucose tolerance test, high-sensitivity Creactive protein, microalbuminuria, serologies for hepatitis B and hepatitis C, ECG, carotid IMT, PWV, Framingham risk score (FRE) and the presence of metabolic syndrome (MS). The DM patients were older (51.7 ± 9.7 years) and 75.8% were female. The data were adjusted for age (mean ± standard error). The waist-to-hip ratio was higher in the HAART-treated patients than in the controls (0.94 ± 0.01 vs. 0.88 ± 0.01, p< 0.0001), the mean systolic blood pressure measured on the day of the visit was higher in the HAARTtreated patients compared to the ART-naive and controls (124.7 ± 2.3 vs. 118.1 ± 2.4 vs. 119.8 ± 2.2 mmHg, respectively, p= 0.001 and p= 0.005), and the mean diastolic blood pressure was higher in the HAART-treated patients than in the ART-naive (78.2 ± 1.8 vs. 75.9 ± 1.9 mmHg, respectively, p= 0.03); serum triglycerides were higher in the HAART-treated patients compared to the ART-naive subjects and controls (233.7 ± 193.4 vs. 137.3 ± 108.6 vs. 147.2 ± 87.3 mg/dL, respectively, p= 0.03 and p= 0.04); microalbuminuria was higher in the HAART-treated patients than in the ARTnaive and DM (86.2 ± 27.3 vs. 49.8 ± 30.5 vs. 30.8 ± 30.6 mg/dL, respectively, p=0.01 and p=0.009). The right carotid IMT was increased in the ART-naive compared to HAART-treated patients and controls (0.55 ± 0.02 vs. 0.52 ± 0.02 vs. 0.52 ± 0.02 mm, respectively, p< 0.0001), while the left carotid IMT was increased in the HAART-treated patients compared to the ART-naive and DM (0.64 ± 0.04 vs. 0.53 ± 0.04 vs. 0.52 ± 0.04, respectively, p< 0.0001). There was significant difference in PWV between the HAART-treated patients and controls (9.7 ± 1.8 vs. 8.7 ± 0.03 m/s, p= 0.03). MS was more prevalent in the HAART-treated patients than in the ART-naive and controls (41.4% vs. 25.0% vs. 28.1%, p= 0.0001). The FRE showed high risk in 27.6% of HAART-treated patients, which was significant compared to ART-naive and controls (p= 0.003). The nadir CD4 count was lower in HAART-treated patients compared to the ART-naive (208 ± 191 vs. 449 ± 176 cells/L, p<0.0001). Current viral load was higher in the ART-naive than in the HAART-treated patients (13,633 ± 25,314 vs. 76 ± 61 copies/ml, p= 0.005). This study shows that patients with HIV infection receiving HAART have a higher cardiovascular risk compared to untreated patients, as evidenced by the presence of a higher frequency of MS, higher ERF, increased arterial stiffness and the presence of early atherosclerosis measured by left carotid IMT. These abnormalities occurred even in the absence of detectable viremia, which means that physicians must pay attention to the risk of subclinical atherosclerosis as a result of HIV-infected patients under appropriate antiretroviral treatment, including effective virological and immunological control.

Estudo da relação entre peso de nascimento, crescimento e aterosclerose subclínica em adultos do Centro de Saúde-Escola \"Prof. Samuel B. Pessoa\" da Faculdade de Medicina da Universidade de São Paulo / Study on the relationship between birth weight, growth, and subclinical atherosclerosis in adults at \"Prof. Samuel B. Pessoa\" Health Center-School from the Medical School of the University of São Paulo

Valente, Maria Helena 12 September 2013 (has links)
JUSTIFICATIVA E OBJETIVOS: Condições adversas no ambiente pré-natal e primeiros anos de vida são independentemente associados com risco aumentado de doença cardiovascular. A hipótese aceita atualmente para essa associação é a de que agravos, principalmente nutricionais, ocorridos durante a gestação alteram a organização de órgãos e sistemas, que ao serem solicitados na vida adulta, teriam menor capacidade funcional. Com base nessa premissa, o trabalho tem o objetivo de estudar a relação entre o peso ao nascer, crescimento no primeiro ano de vida e fatores de risco para doença cardiovascular e aterosclerose subclínica em adultos do Centro de Saúde-Escola (CSE) \"Prof. Samuel B. Pessoa\" da Faculdade de Medicina da Universidade de São Paulo. MÉTODOS: Em 2009, 88 adultos jovens com idade entre 20-31 anos, seguidos desde o início da vida no CSE, foram submetidos ao diagnóstico de aterosclerose subclínica. Informações relacionadas às características sociodemográficas, dados antropométricos, medidas da pressão arterial, perfil metabólico, e avaliação da aterosclerose subclínica pela ultrassonografia e métodos gráficos foram obtidas dos adultos, e estudadas de acordo com 2 pontos de corte em relação ao peso de nascimento (< 2.500 gramas; e, > 3.500 gramas) e ganho de peso no primeiro ano de vida. Os pesos foram obtidos dos registros de prontuários. Os achados atuais dos adultos foram analisados em relação às condições de nascimento e ao ganho de peso no primeiro ano de vida. Para realização das análises estatísticas foram realizadas regressões multivariadas. RESULTADOS: Baixo peso ao nascer, menor de 2.500 gramas (g) foi negativamente correlacionado com a relação cintura-quadril (RCQ) elevada, segundo coeficiente de regressão (CR) igual a -0,323, IC 95% [-0,571, -0,075] p < 0,05, níveis de pressão arterial diastólica (CR=-4,744, IC 95% [-9,017,-0,470] p < 0,05), HDL-colesterol reduzido (CR=-0,272, IC 95% [-0,516, -0,029] p < 0,05), e frequência da espessura da média-íntima (EMI) média da carótida esquerda (CE) acima do p75 (CR=-0,242, IC 95% [-0,476,-0,008] p < 0,05). Peso ao nascer maior do que 3.500 g foi positivamente associado com IMC (CR=2,832, IC 95% [0,433, 5,233] p < 0,05), IMC >= 25,0 kg/m2, (CR=0,317, IC 95% [0,782, 0,557] p < 0.05), cintura abdominal elevada (CR=0,284, IC 95% [0,054, 0,513] p < 0,05), RCQ elevada (CR=0,280, IC 95% [0,054, 0,505] p < 0,05), glicemia de jejum (CR=3,808, IC 95% [0,558, 7,058] p < 0,05), MEGA mínima (CR=4,354, IC 95% [0,821, 7,888] p < 0,05), MEGA máxima (CR=7,095, IC 95% [0,608, 13,583] p < 0,05), tamanho do lobo direito do fígado (CR=6,896, IC 95% [1,946, 11,847] p < 0,01), e com a frequência do lobo direito do fígado acima do p75 (CR=0,361, IC 95% [0,169, 0,552] p < 0,01). Ganho de peso no primeiro ano de vida menor que: a diferença entre o peso com 12 meses de idade e o peso de nascimento no p50 das curvas da Organização Mundial da Saúde, foi considerado inadequado, sendo negativamente correlacionado com EMI média da CE (CR=-0,046, IC 95% [-0,086, -0,006] p < 0,05), frequência da EMI média da CE acima do p75 (CR=-0,253, IC 95% [-0,487, -0,018] p < 0,05), EMI da (CE+CD)/2, com CR=-0,038, IC 95% [-0,073, -0,002] p < 0,05, e com a frequência da EMI (CE+CD)/2 acima do p75 (CR=-0,241, IC 95% [-0,442, -0,041] p < 0,05). CONCLUSÕES: Adultos com pesos de nascimento menores do que 2.500 g. e maiores do que 3.500 g. e com ganho de peso insuficiente no primeiro ano de vida apresentaram diferentes fenótipos metabólicos, mas todos relacionados com fatores de risco aumentados para doença cardiovascular e aterosclerose subclínica, quando comparados com aqueles que nasceram com peso adequado e com ganho de peso suficiente no primeiro ano de vida / BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVES: Adverse conditions in the prenatal environment and in the first years of life are independently associated with increased risk for cardiovascular disease. The currently accepted hypothesis for this association is the one that states that alterations occurred during pregnancy, mainly nutritional ones, affect the organization of organs and systems that would have a lower functional capacity when needed during adult life. This paper aims to study the relationship between weight at birth, growth in the first year of life and risk factors for cardiovascular disease and subclinical atherosclerosis subclinical atherosclerosis in adults of the \"Prof. Samuel B. Pessoa\" Health Center-School (CSE) from the Medical School of the University of São Paulo. METHODS: In the year of 2009, 88 young adults aged between 20 and 31, followed since the beginning of their lives in the CSE, were submitted to the diagnosis of subclinical atherosclerosis. Their sociodemographic qualities, anthropometric data, blood pressure measurements, metabolic profile, evaluation of subclinical atherosclerosis by ultrasound and graphical methods were collected. These pieces of information were later studied according to their birth weight (< 2,500 grams and > 3,500 grams) and to the gain of weight during their first year of life. Weights were obtained from the registrations of their medical records. The current findings in the adults were analysed in relation to their conditions of birth and weight gain in the first year of life. Multivariate regressions were performed in order to obtain the statistical analyses. RESULTS: Low birth weight, less than 2,500 grams (g) was negatively correlated with higher waist-to-hip ratio (WHR), according to regression coefficient (RC) equal to -0.323, 95% CI [-0.571, -0.075] p < 0.05, diastolic blood pressure (RC=-4.744, 95% CI [-9.017, -0.470] p < 0.05), reduced HDL cholesterol (RC=-0.272, 95% CI [-0.516, - 0.029] p < 0.05), and the frequency of the intima-media thickness (IMT) of the left carotid artery average above 75th p (RC=-0.242 95% CI [-0.476, -0.008] p < 0.05). Birth weight greater than 3,500g was positively associated with BMI (RC=2.832, 95% CI [0.433, 5.233] p < 0.05), BMI >= 25.0 kg/m2, (RC=0.317, 95% CI [0.782, 0.557] p < 0.05), waist circumference elevated (RC=0.284, 95% CI [0.054, 0.513] p < 0.05), WHR elevated (RC=0.280, 95% CI [0.054, 0.505] p < 0.05), fasting glucose (RC=3.809, 95% CI [0.559, 7.058] p < 0.05), minimum subcutaneous adipose tissue (SAT) with RC=4.354, 95% CI [0.821, 7.888] p < 0.05), maximum SAT (RC=7.095, 95% CI [0.608, 13.583] p < 0.05), size right lobe of the liver (RC=6.896, 95% CI [1.946, 11.847] p < 0.01), and the frequency of the right lobe of the liver above the 75th percentile (RC=0.361, 95% CI [0.169, 0.552] p < 0.01). Weight gain in the first year of life was considered inadequate when it was lower than the difference between the weight at 12 months of age and birth weight at the 50th percentile curves of the World Health Organization (WHO), and negatively correlated with media IMT of left carotid (RC=-0.046, 95% CI [-0.086, -0.006] p < 0.05, frequency of media IMT of left carotid above the 75th percentile (RC=-0.253, 95% CI [-0.487, -0.018] p < 0.05), media IMT(left carotid + right carotid)/2 com RC=-0.038, 95% CI [-0.073, -0.002] p < 0.05, and the frequency of the media IMT (left carotid + right carotid)/2 above the 75th percentile (RC=-0.241, 95% CI [-0.442,-0.041] p < 0.05). CONCLUSIONS: Adults with weight at birth lower than 2,500 g and higher than 3,500 g and with insufficient weight gain in the first year of life have showed different metabolic phenotypes, but all related to increased risk factors for cardiovascular disease and subclinical atherosclerosis when compared to those who were born with appropriate weight and who have gained enough weight during the first year of life

JUSTIFICATIVA E OBJETIVOS: Condições adversas no ambiente pré-natal e primeiros anos de vida são independentemente associados com risco aumentado de doença cardiovascular. A hipótese aceita atualmente para essa associação é a de que agravos, principalmente nutricionais, ocorridos durante a gestação alteram a organização de órgãos e sistemas, que ao serem solicitados na vida adulta, teriam menor capacidade funcional. Com base nessa premissa, o trabalho tem o objetivo de estudar a relação entre o peso ao nascer, crescimento no primeiro ano de vida e fatores de risco para doença cardiovascular e aterosclerose subclínica em adultos do Centro de Saúde-Escola (CSE) \"Prof. Samuel B. Pessoa\" da Faculdade de Medicina da Universidade de São Paulo. MÉTODOS: Em 2009, 88 adultos jovens com idade entre 20-31 anos, seguidos desde o início da vida no CSE, foram submetidos ao diagnóstico de aterosclerose subclínica. Informações relacionadas às características sociodemográficas, dados antropométricos, medidas da pressão arterial, perfil metabólico, e avaliação da aterosclerose subclínica pela ultrassonografia e métodos gráficos foram obtidas dos adultos, e estudadas de acordo com 2 pontos de corte em relação ao peso de nascimento (< 2.500 gramas; e, > 3.500 gramas) e ganho de peso no primeiro ano de vida. Os pesos foram obtidos dos registros de prontuários. Os achados atuais dos adultos foram analisados em relação às condições de nascimento e ao ganho de peso no primeiro ano de vida. Para realização das análises estatísticas foram realizadas regressões multivariadas. RESULTADOS: Baixo peso ao nascer, menor de 2.500 gramas (g) foi negativamente correlacionado com a relação cintura-quadril (RCQ) elevada, segundo coeficiente de regressão (CR) igual a -0,323, IC 95% [-0,571, -0,075] p < 0,05, níveis de pressão arterial diastólica (CR=-4,744, IC 95% [-9,017,-0,470] p < 0,05), HDL-colesterol reduzido (CR=-0,272, IC 95% [-0,516, -0,029] p < 0,05), e frequência da espessura da média-íntima (EMI) média da carótida esquerda (CE) acima do p75 (CR=-0,242, IC 95% [-0,476,-0,008] p < 0,05). Peso ao nascer maior do que 3.500 g foi positivamente associado com IMC (CR=2,832, IC 95% [0,433, 5,233] p < 0,05), IMC >= 25,0 kg/m2, (CR=0,317, IC 95% [0,782, 0,557] p < 0.05), cintura abdominal elevada (CR=0,284, IC 95% [0,054, 0,513] p < 0,05), RCQ elevada (CR=0,280, IC 95% [0,054, 0,505] p < 0,05), glicemia de jejum (CR=3,808, IC 95% [0,558, 7,058] p < 0,05), MEGA mínima (CR=4,354, IC 95% [0,821, 7,888] p < 0,05), MEGA máxima (CR=7,095, IC 95% [0,608, 13,583] p < 0,05), tamanho do lobo direito do fígado (CR=6,896, IC 95% [1,946, 11,847] p < 0,01), e com a frequência do lobo direito do fígado acima do p75 (CR=0,361, IC 95% [0,169, 0,552] p < 0,01). Ganho de peso no primeiro ano de vida menor que: a diferença entre o peso com 12 meses de idade e o peso de nascimento no p50 das curvas da Organização Mundial da Saúde, foi considerado inadequado, sendo negativamente correlacionado com EMI média da CE (CR=-0,046, IC 95% [-0,086, -0,006] p < 0,05), frequência da EMI média da CE acima do p75 (CR=-0,253, IC 95% [-0,487, -0,018] p < 0,05), EMI da (CE+CD)/2, com CR=-0,038, IC 95% [-0,073, -0,002] p < 0,05, e com a frequência da EMI (CE+CD)/2 acima do p75 (CR=-0,241, IC 95% [-0,442, -0,041] p < 0,05). CONCLUSÕES: Adultos com pesos de nascimento menores do que 2.500 g. e maiores do que 3.500 g. e com ganho de peso insuficiente no primeiro ano de vida apresentaram diferentes fenótipos metabólicos, mas todos relacionados com fatores de risco aumentados para doença cardiovascular e aterosclerose subclínica, quando comparados com aqueles que nasceram com peso adequado e com ganho de peso suficiente no primeiro ano de vida / BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVES: Adverse conditions in the prenatal environment and in the first years of life are independently associated with increased risk for cardiovascular disease. The currently accepted hypothesis for this association is the one that states that alterations occurred during pregnancy, mainly nutritional ones, affect the organization of organs and systems that would have a lower functional capacity when needed during adult life. This paper aims to study the relationship between weight at birth, growth in the first year of life and risk factors for cardiovascular disease and subclinical atherosclerosis subclinical atherosclerosis in adults of the \"Prof. Samuel B. Pessoa\" Health Center-School (CSE) from the Medical School of the University of São Paulo. METHODS: In the year of 2009, 88 young adults aged between 20 and 31, followed since the beginning of their lives in the CSE, were submitted to the diagnosis of subclinical atherosclerosis. Their sociodemographic qualities, anthropometric data, blood pressure measurements, metabolic profile, evaluation of subclinical atherosclerosis by ultrasound and graphical methods were collected. These pieces of information were later studied according to their birth weight (< 2,500 grams and > 3,500 grams) and to the gain of weight during their first year of life. Weights were obtained from the registrations of their medical records. The current findings in the adults were analysed in relation to their conditions of birth and weight gain in the first year of life. Multivariate regressions were performed in order to obtain the statistical analyses. RESULTS: Low birth weight, less than 2,500 grams (g) was negatively correlated with higher waist-to-hip ratio (WHR), according to regression coefficient (RC) equal to -0.323, 95% CI [-0.571, -0.075] p < 0.05, diastolic blood pressure (RC=-4.744, 95% CI [-9.017, -0.470] p < 0.05), reduced HDL cholesterol (RC=-0.272, 95% CI [-0.516, - 0.029] p < 0.05), and the frequency of the intima-media thickness (IMT) of the left carotid artery average above 75th p (RC=-0.242 95% CI [-0.476, -0.008] p < 0.05). Birth weight greater than 3,500g was positively associated with BMI (RC=2.832, 95% CI [0.433, 5.233] p < 0.05), BMI >= 25.0 kg/m2, (RC=0.317, 95% CI [0.782, 0.557] p < 0.05), waist circumference elevated (RC=0.284, 95% CI [0.054, 0.513] p < 0.05), WHR elevated (RC=0.280, 95% CI [0.054, 0.505] p < 0.05), fasting glucose (RC=3.809, 95% CI [0.559, 7.058] p < 0.05), minimum subcutaneous adipose tissue (SAT) with RC=4.354, 95% CI [0.821, 7.888] p < 0.05), maximum SAT (RC=7.095, 95% CI [0.608, 13.583] p < 0.05), size right lobe of the liver (RC=6.896, 95% CI [1.946, 11.847] p < 0.01), and the frequency of the right lobe of the liver above the 75th percentile (RC=0.361, 95% CI [0.169, 0.552] p < 0.01). Weight gain in the first year of life was considered inadequate when it was lower than the difference between the weight at 12 months of age and birth weight at the 50th percentile curves of the World Health Organization (WHO), and negatively correlated with media IMT of left carotid (RC=-0.046, 95% CI [-0.086, -0.006] p < 0.05, frequency of media IMT of left carotid above the 75th percentile (RC=-0.253, 95% CI [-0.487, -0.018] p < 0.05), media IMT(left carotid + right carotid)/2 com RC=-0.038, 95% CI [-0.073, -0.002] p < 0.05, and the frequency of the media IMT (left carotid + right carotid)/2 above the 75th percentile (RC=-0.241, 95% CI [-0.442,-0.041] p < 0.05). CONCLUSIONS: Adults with weight at birth lower than 2,500 g and higher than 3,500 g and with insufficient weight gain in the first year of life have showed different metabolic phenotypes, but all related to increased risk factors for cardiovascular disease and subclinical atherosclerosis when compared to those who were born with appropriate weight and who have gained enough weight during the first year of life
