1 Multiple comorbidities: additive and predictive of cardiovascular risk Peter M. Nilsson Lund University University Hospital Malmö, Sweden

2 Clinical outcomes: major complications of CVD Heart Attack/ACS Stroke/TIA ACS=acute coronary syndrome; CVD=cardiovascular disease; TIA=transient ischaemic attack

3 Myocardial ischaemia Atherosclerosis LV hypertrophy Chain of events leading to cardiovascular mortality Coronary thrombosis Coronary artery disease Stroke Myocardial infarction Renal failure Neurohormonal activation Arrhythmias Loss of muscle Remodeling Ventricular dilation Sudden death Risk factors Hyperlipidaemia Hypertension Diabetes Smoking Psychosocial stress Dzau, Braunwald. Am Heart J Heart failure Death

4 Genetic influences on CVD risk and Type 2 diabetes

5 Secular trends in CVD in the UK Coronary heart disease mortality per 100,000 population Men Women Year Secular trends in age-standardised mortality per 100,000 population from coronary heart disease for men and women, , England and Wales Lawlor et al. BMJ

6 The challenge: the clustering of related risk factors Hypertension Obesity Atherosclerosis Hyperinsulinaemia Type 2 diabetes Hypertriglyceridaemia Small, dense LDL Low HDL Type 2 diabetes HDL=high-density lipoprotein; LDL=low-density lipoprotein Deedwania. Am J Med. 1998

8 Metabolic syndrome: does it exist? arguments PRO Historical observations of the syndrome; it has been around for a long time! Logical clustering of risk factors for the metabolic syndrome is based on evolutionary selection and brain reward systems Risk prediction of CVD is possible based on the metabolic syndrome Treatment of metabolic syndrome/insulin resistance and associated risk factors is beneficial

9 NCEP ATP III criteria for the metabolic syndrome Fasting plasma glucose 6.1 mmol/l Abdominal obesity: waist circumference >88 cm (women) or >102 cm (men) Triglycerides 1.7 mmol/l 3 of the following: HDL cholesterol <1.29 mmol/l (women) or <1.03 mmol/l (men) Blood pressure 130/ 85 mmhg NCEP ATP III=National Cholesterol Education Program Adult Treatment Panel III Third Report of the Expert Panel on Detection, Evaluation, and Treatment of High Blood Cholesterol in Adults (Adult Treatment Panel III).

26 Conclusions Evolutionary biology and evolutionary medicine can provide new perspectives on the metabolic syndrome and clusters of CVD risk factors Survival genes do not match with modern lifestyle, resulting in abdominal obesity, chronic inflammation, and insulin resistance A life course approach takes into account the early programming (fetal life, catch-up post-natal growth) for prediction of cardiovascular risk and Type 2 diabetes Lifestyle programmes have to be tailored to brain reward systems and may prevent vascular ageing
