⢠In the long run (becoming shorter) our current
approach to ASCVD is not sustainable.
⢠Ideal cardiovascular health exists (ASCVD is
preventable) in a small portion of the
population.
⢠Ultimately, as a society, we will need to
confront the common source of the epidemic.
72. SSuummmmaarryy
⢠New guidelines attempt to improve risk
assessment and are open to the
transition from risk factor identification
to earlier disease identification with a
clear call for more outcomes research
in the field demonstrating favorable risk
reclassification.
73. SSuummmmaarryy
⢠Detection of subclinical vascular disease
identifies individuals at increased risk for clinical
events who are most likely to benefit from
aggressive preventive intervention.
⢠These individuals will continue to be important
populations for further study of synergistic
environmental and biologic modifiers of disease
progression.
⢠Parachutes save lives without RCTâs

Cardiovascular disease and other major causes of death for all males and females (United States: 2008). A indicates cardiovascular disease plus congenital cardiovascular disease (International Classification of Diseases, 10th Revision codes I00âI99, Q20âQ28); B, cancer (C00âC97); C, accidents (V01âX59, Y85âY86); D, chronic lower respiratory disease (J40âJ47); E, diabetes mellitus (E10âE14); and F, Alzheimer disease (G30).

Percentage breakdown of deaths attributable to cardiovascular disease (United States: 2008). Source: National Heart, Lung, and Blood Institute from National Center for Health Statistics reports and data sets. *Not a true underlying cause. With any mention deaths, heart failure accounts for 35% of cardiovascular disease deaths. Total may not add to 100 because of rounding. Coronary heart disease includes International Classification of Diseases (ICD), 10th Revision codes I20âI25; stroke, I60âI69; heart failure, I50; high blood pressure, I10âI13; diseases of the arteries, I70âI78; and other, all remaining ICD I categories.
The 20 leading diagnoses for direct health expenditures, United States, 2008 (in billions of dollars). COPD indicates chronic obstructive pulmonary disease; GI, gastrointestinal tract. Source: National Heart, Lung, and Blood Institute; estimates are from the Medical Expenditure Panel Survey, Agency for Healthcare Research and Quality, and exclude nursing home costs.
For any common source epidemic, genetic and other âhost susceptibilityâ factors determine the response to the common source.
These factors will also have great impact on extremes of the distribution of lipoprotein levels and the development of atherosclerosis at any given lipoprotein level.
It is the high levels lipoproteins or oxidized lipoproteins at the arterial wall that result in endothelial injury, a secondary cascade of inflammatory and metabolic events that result in the formation of atherosclerosis.
Several markers of subclinical disease have emerged like carotid ultrasound (measurement of IMT) or EBCT/MSCT (assessment of coronary calcium) that are also able to predict future cardiovascular endpoints. However, similar to the situation in the blood biomarker field there is still a controversy regarding the clinical utility of the various imaging methods, and in particular it is not yet clear whether these surrogate markers of subclinical disease contribute incremental information above and beyond what has been gained by traditional risk factors. The investigation of the diagnostic value of the combination of blood biomarkers and non-invasive imaging methods also represents an important current research area.

Coronary calcification and plaque morphology in humans. A, Radiograph of the coronary arteries following removal from the heart. B, Type of radiographic calcification in different plaques. Radiographic calcification was typed according to the classification of Friedrich et al24 and in brief absence of calcification, speckled, and fragmented (linear or wide, single focus of calcium &gt;2 mm in diameter), or diffuse (âĽ5-mm segment of continuous calcium). C, Bar graph shows mean area of calcification in different plaque morphologies in sudden coronary death victims. T bars indicate SEM. AIT indicates adaptive intimal thickening; FA, fibroatheroma; LAD, left anterior descending artery; LCX, left circumflex artery; LD, left diagonal artery; LM, left main coronary artery; LOM, left obtuse marginal branch; PIT, pathological intimal thickening; RCA, right coronary artery; and TCFA, thin-cap fibroatheroma.

Immunoreactivity pattern of bone matrix proteins in human nondiseased aorta, intimal xanthoma, fibrous cap atheroma, and fibrocalcific plaques. The table represents the immunohistochemical pattern of the bone matrix regulatory proteins matrix Gla protein (MGP), osteocalcin (OC), bone sialoprotein (BSP), bone morphogenic protein (BMP)-2, BMP-4, osteopontin (OPN), and osteonectin (ON) in human atherogenesis. Fibrocalcific plaques were divided into cartilage tissue, calcium deposits, and bone tissue, structures that were present in these lesions. MGP, OC, and BSP were present in early as well as advanced lesions, whereas BMP-2, BMP-4, OPN, and ON were only present in advanced plaques.

Schematic illustrating 4 nonmutually exclusive theories for vascular calcification: (1) cell death leading to release of apoptotic bodies and necrotic debris that may serve to nucleate apatite at sites of injury; (2) circulating nucleational complexes released from actively remodeling bone or matrix vesicular released locally; (3) loss of inhibition as a result of deficiency of constitutively expressed tissue-derived and circulating mineralization inhibitors leads to default apatite deposition; and (4) induction of bone formation resulting from altered differentiation of vascular smooth muscle (SMCs) or stem cells. MGP indicates matrix Gla protein; and OPN, osteopontin.
