Influence of Obesity and Metabolic Disease on Carotid Atherosclerosis in Patients with Coronary Artery Disease (CordioPrev Study). PLoS One. 2016 Apr 11;11(4):e0153096http://hdl.handle.net/10668/9982Recent data suggest that the presence of associated metabolic abnormalities may be important modifiers of the association of obesity with a poorer prognosis in coronary heart disease. We determined the influence of isolated overweight and obesity on carotid intima media thickness (IMT-CC), and also assessed whether this influence was determined by the presence of metabolic abnormalities. 1002 participants from the CordioPrev study were studied at entry. We determined their metabolic phenotypes and performed carotid ultrasound assessment. We evaluated the influence of obesity, overweight and metabolic phenotypes on the IMT-CC. Metabolically sick participants (defined by the presence of two or more metabolic abnormalities) showed a greater IMT-CC than metabolically healthy individuals (p = 4 * 10(-6)). Overweight and normal weight patients who were metabolically healthy showed a lower IMT-CC than the metabolically abnormal groups (all p In coronary patients, a metabolically abnormal phenotype is associated with a greater IMT-CC, and may be linked to a higher risk of suffering new cardiovascular events. The protection conferred in the IMT-CC by the absence of metabolic abnormality may be blunted by the presence of obesity.enCC0 1.0 Universalhttp://creativecommons.org/publicdomain/zero/1.0/AdultAgedBody mass indexBody weightCarotid artery diseasesCarotid intima-media thicknessCoronary artery diseaseFemaleHumansMaleMetabolic diseasesMiddle agedObesityOverweightPrognosisProspective studiesRisk factorsYoung adultresearch article27064675open accessEnfermedad de la arteria coronariaEnfermedades metabólicasObesidadPronósticoSobrepeso10.1371/journal.pone.01530961932-6203PMC4827867https://journals.plos.org/plosone/article/file?id=10.1371/journal.pone.0153096&type=printablehttps://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC4827867/pdf
