Patients were stratified into two groups based on baseline RBP levels: the normal RBP group (≥36 mg/L) and the reduced RBP group (<36 mg/L). Baseline characteristics and clinical data after one year of treatment were collected and compared between the groups. Within the reduced RBP group, patients were further subclassified by changes in RBP levels after treatment (ΔRBP=post-treatment RBP-baseline RBP) into ΔRBP>0 and ΔRBP<0 subgroups. Worsening of global longitudinal strain (GLS) after treatment was defined as the primary outcome, logistic regression analysis was used to identify risk factors influencing therapeutic response to tafamidis in ATTR-CA patients. <b>Results:</b> A total of 52 ATTR-CA patients were included (aged (58.5±12.0) years, 46 males (88%)). Among 39 patients who completed one-year tafamidis treatment, no statistically significant difference was observed in RBP levels post-treatment versus baseline ((27.0±14.3) mg/L vs. (25.9±15.4) mg/L, <i>P</i>=0.261). Compared to the normal RBP group, the reduced RBP group had significantly higher estimated glomerular filtration rate-adjusted N-terminal pro-B-type natriuretic peptide levels (2 316.0 (1 161.5, 6 027.8) ng/L vs. 806.2 (349.5, 1 735.8) ng/L), higher left ventricular mass index ((164.4±46.5) g/m² vs. (123.9±31.8) g/m²), and lower left ventricular ejection fraction ((50.8±11.3)% vs. (58.8±6.2)%) (all <i>P</i><0.05). Among 31 patients in the reduced RBP group who completed one-year tafamidis treatment, 23 were classified as ΔRBP>0 and 8 as ΔRBP<0. The ΔRBP<0 group exhibited greater GLS worsening than the ΔRBP>0 group (0.7 (-0.1, 1.4)% vs. -0.4 (-1.4, 0.2)%, <i>P</i>=0.027). Multivariate logistic regression analysis revealed that ΔRBP<0 was an independent risk factor for GLS worsening (<i>OR</i>=8.584, <i>95%CI</i> 1.186-62.150, <i>P</i>=0.033) in ATTR-CA patients. <b>Conclusion:</b> ATTR-CA patients with reduced RBP levels exhibit more severe left ventricular structural and functional impairment compared to those with normal RBP levels. Decline in RBP during treatment (ΔRBP<0) is associated with poorer response to tafamidis treatment. Monitoring RBP dynamics may assist clinicians in assessing disease severity and therapeutic response in ATTR-CA patients.</p>","PeriodicalId":38755,"journal":{"name":"中华心血管病杂志","volume":"53 7","pages":"776-783"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2025-07-24","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144709286","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

All data were derived from Kailuan Cohort. Non-hypertensive individuals who completed two brachial-ankle pulse wave velocity (baPWV) measurements between January 2014 and December 2019 (using the first measurement as the baseline and the second as the follow-up) were enrolled, and clinical data such as blood pressure and baPWV were collected. According to the blood pressure level at baseline and follow-up, participants were divided into new-onset hypertension group (no hypertension at baseline but diagnosed at follow-up) and non-hypertension group (no hypertension at both baseline and follow-up). Multiple linear regression and multivariate logistic regression were used to analyze the impact of new-onset hypertension on arteriosclerosis progression. Subgroup analysis further classified participants into six blood pressure transition categories: normal-maintained, normal-to-high-normal, normal-to-hypertensive, high-normal-to-normal, high-normal-maintained, and high-normal-to-hypertensive groups. Multivariate logistic regression analysis was used to assess the impact of different blood pressure outcomes on arteriosclerosis progression. <b>Results:</b> A total of 7 049 participants were enrolled, with the age of (40.45±9.04) years, including 3 645 males (51.71%).

Data were collected through questionnaires, covering demographic characteristics, behavioral and lifestyle factors, and self-reported history of cardiometabolic diseases. CMM was defined as the coexistence of two or more cardiometabolic diseases in the same individual.
