Adjustment of the SMART risk score by bioactive adrenomedullin enables a more accurate prediction of mortality in patients with ASCVD
Background and aims
Bioactive adrenomedullin 1-52 (bio-ADM) is a novel biomarker for the assessment of endothelial function and prediction of adverse outcomes in patients with acute heart failure and cardiogenic shock. The SMART (Second Manifestations of Arterial Disease) risk score is a validated tool for risk assessment in patients with established atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease (ASCVD). Here we assessed whether bio-ADM adds incremental prognostic value to the SMART risk score in stable patients with ASCVD.
Methods
Circulating bio-ADM levels were measured in 452 stable patients with ASCVD. Endpoints evaluated were all-cause and cardiovascular mortality; follow up was 3 years.
Results
Bio-ADM was higher in non-survivors (n = 45; median 36.8 pg/mL) compared to survivors (n = 407; median 18.3 pg/mL; p < 0.0001). Bio-ADM was found to be a strong predictor for all-cause mortality (Chi2: 44.58; C-index: 0.79) as well as cardiovascular death (Chi2: 33.29; C-index: 0.85) and proved to be superior to other markers including hs-Troponin T (Chi2: 7.77; C-index: 0.73) and eGFRCKD-EPI 2021 (Chi2: 25.10; C-index: 0.70). In multivariable analyses adjusting for age, sex, diabetes mellitus, hypertension, smoking, NT-proBNP, and eGFRCKD-EPI 2021, bio-ADM remained independently associated with all-cause mortality (HR: 1.6; 95 % CI: 1.2–2.1; Chi2: 96.17; p < 0.00001; C-index: 0.89) and cardiovascular death (HR: 1.7; 95 % CI: 1.1–2.5; Chi2: 57.71; p < 0.00001; C-index: 0.88). Addition of bio-ADM to the SMART risk score meaningfully improved model performance in predicting mortality (SMART risk score: Chi2: 19.91; p = 0.0001; C-index: 0.69; SMART risk score + bio-ADM: Chi2: 54.51; p < 0.00001; C-index: 0.81).
Conclusions
Bio-ADM levels are independently associated with mortality and provide incremental added value on top of the SMART risk score in stable patients with ASCVD.
期刊介绍:
Atherosclerosis has an open access mirror journal Atherosclerosis: X, sharing the same aims and scope, editorial team, submission system and rigorous peer review.
Atherosclerosis brings together, from all sources, papers concerned with investigation on atherosclerosis, its risk factors and clinical manifestations. Atherosclerosis covers basic and translational, clinical and population research approaches to arterial and vascular biology and disease, as well as their risk factors including: disturbances of lipid and lipoprotein metabolism, diabetes and hypertension, thrombosis, and inflammation. The Editors are interested in original or review papers dealing with the pathogenesis, environmental, genetic and epigenetic basis, diagnosis or treatment of atherosclerosis and related diseases as well as their risk factors.
