Higher lipoprotein(a) and oxidized phospholipid concentrations are associated with increased risk for coronary artery disease and valvular heart disease. The role of lipoprotein(a) or oxidized phospholipid as a risk factor for incident heart failure (HF) or its complications remains uncertain.
A total of 1251 individuals referred for coronary angiography in the Catheter Sampled Blood Archive in Cardiovascular Diseases (CASABLANCA) study were stratified on the basis of universal definition of HF stage; those in stage A/B (N=714) were followed up for an average 3.7 years for incident stage C/D HF or the composite of HF/cardiovascular death. During follow-up, 105 (14.7%) study participants in stage A/B progressed to symptomatic HF and 57 (8.0%) had cardiovascular death. In models adjusted for multiple HF risk factors, including severe coronary artery disease and aortic stenosis, individuals with lipoprotein(a) ≥150 nmol/L were at higher risk for progression to symptomatic HF (hazard ratio [HR], 1.90 [95% CI, 1.15-3.13]; =0.01) or the composite of HF/cardiovascular death (HR, 1.71 [95% CI, 1.10-2.67]; =0.02). These results remained significant after further adjustment of the model to include prior myocardial infarction (HF: HR, 1.89, 0.01; HF/cardiovascular death: HR, 1.68, =0.02). Elevated oxidized phospholipid concentrations were similarly associated with risk, particularly when added to higher lipoprotein(a). In Kaplan-Meier analyses, individuals with stage A/B HF and elevated lipoprotein(a) had shorter time to progression to stage C/D HF or HF/cardiovascular death (both log-rank <0.001).
Among individuals with stage A or B HF, higher lipoprotein(a) and oxidized phospholipid concentrations are independent risk factors for progression to symptomatic HF or cardiovascular death.

脂蛋白(a)和氧化磷脂浓度升高与冠状动脉疾病和心脏瓣膜病的风险增加有关。脂蛋白(a)或氧化磷脂作为心力衰竭(HF)事件或其并发症的风险因素的作用仍不确定。
在心血管疾病导管取样血库(CASABLANCA)研究中,根据 HF 阶段的通用定义,对 1251 名接受冠状动脉造影检查的个体进行分层;A/B 期(N=714)的患者平均随访 3.7 年,以观察 C/D 期 HF 或 HF/心血管死亡的复合终点。随访期间,A/B 期 105 名(14.7%)研究参与者进展为有症状的 HF,57 名(8.0%)发生心血管死亡。在调整了包括严重冠状动脉疾病和主动脉瓣狭窄在内的多个 HF 风险因素的模型中,脂蛋白(a)≥150nmol/L 的个体发生进展为有症状 HF 的风险更高(风险比[HR],1.90[95%置信区间,1.15-3.13];=0.01)或 HF/心血管死亡的复合终点(HR,1.71[95%置信区间,1.10-2.67];=0.02)。在进一步调整模型以纳入既往心肌梗死(HF:HR,1.89,0.01;HF/心血管死亡:HR,1.68,=0.02)后,这些结果仍然具有统计学意义。氧化磷脂浓度升高也与风险相关,尤其是当与较高的脂蛋白(a)结合时。在 Kaplan-Meier 分析中,A/B 期 HF 且脂蛋白(a)升高的个体进展为 C/D 期 HF 或 HF/心血管死亡的时间更短(对数秩检验<0.001)。
在 A 或 B 期 HF 患者中,较高的脂蛋白(a)和氧化磷脂浓度是发生有症状 HF 或心血管死亡的独立危险因素。
