Abstract
BACKGROUND Left ventricular hypertrophy (LVH) and dyslipidemia are strong, independent predictors for cardiovascular disease, but their relationship is less well studied. A longitudinal lipidomic profiling of left ventricular mass (LVM) and LVH is still lacking.METHODS Using liquid chromatography–mass spectrometry (LC-MS), we repeatedly measured 1,542 lipids from 1,755 unique American Indians attending 2 exams (mean, 5 years apart). Cross-sectional associations of individual lipid species with LVM index (LVMI) were examined by generalized estimating equation (GEE), followed by replication in an independent biracial cohort (65% White, 35% Black). Baseline plasma lipids associated with LVH risk beyond traditional risk factors were identified by logistic GEE model in American Indians. Longitudinal associations between changes in lipids and changes in LVMI were examined by GEE, adjusting for baseline lipids, baseline LVMI, and covariates.RESULTS Multiple lipid species were significantly associated with LVMI or the risk of LVH in American Indians. Some lipids were confirmed in Black and White individuals. Moreover, some LVH-related lipids were inversely associated with risk of coronary heart disease (CHD). Longitudinal changes in several lipid species were significantly associated with changes in LVMI.CONCLUSION Altered fasting plasma lipidome and its longitudinal change over time were significantly associated with LVMI and risk for LVH in American Indians. Our results offer insight into the role of individual lipid species in LV remodeling and risk of LVH, independent of known risk factors.FUNDING This study was supported by the NIH grant (R01DK107532).

Usage information is collected from two different sources: this site (JCI) and Pubmed Central (PMC). JCI information (compiled daily) shows human readership based on methods we employ to screen out robotic usage. PMC information (aggregated monthly) is also similarly screened of robotic usage.
Various methods are used to distinguish robotic usage. For example, Google automatically scans articles to add to its search index and identifies itself as robotic; other services might not clearly identify themselves as robotic, or they are new or unknown as robotic. Because this activity can be misinterpreted as human readership, data may be re-processed periodically to reflect an improved understanding of robotic activity. Because of these factors, readers should consider usage information illustrative but subject to change.
