    (American Heart Association, 2024) Suzuki, Takeki; Zhu, Xiaoqian; Adabag, Selcuk; Matsushita, Kunihiro; Butler, Kenneth R.; Griswold, Michael E.; Alonso, Alvaro; Rosamond, Wayne; Sotoodehnia, Nona; Mosley, Thomas H.; Medicine, School of Medicine
    Background: Sudden cardiac death (SCD) is a significant global public health problem accounting for 15% to 20% of all deaths. A great majority of SCD is associated with coronary heart disease, which may first be detected at autopsy. The ankle-brachial index (ABI) is a simple, noninvasive measure of subclinical atherosclerosis. The purpose of this study was to examine the relationship between ABI and SCD in a middle-aged biracial general population. Methods and results: Participants of the ARIC (Atherosclerosis Risk in Communities) study with an ABI measurement between 1987 and 1989 were included. ABI was categorized as low (≤0.90), borderline (0.90-1.00), normal (1.00-1.40), and noncompressible (>1.40). SCD was defined as a sudden pulseless condition presumed to be caused by a ventricular tachyarrhythmia in a previously stable individual and was adjudicated by a committee of cardiac electrophysiologists, cardiologists, and internists. Cox proportional hazards models were used to evaluate the associations between baseline ABI and incident SCD. Of the 15 081 participants followed for a median of 23.5 years, 556 (3.7%) developed SCD (1.96 cases per 1000 person-years). Low and borderline ABIs were associated with an increased risk of SCD (demographically adjusted hazard ratios [ HRs ], 2.27 [ 95% CI, 1.64-3.14 ] and 1.52 [ 95% CI, 1.17-1.96 ], respectively) compared with normal ABI. The association between low ABI and SCD remained significant after adjustment for traditional cardiovascular risk factors (HR, 1.63 [ 95% CI, 1.15-2.32 ]). Conclusions: Low ABI is independently associated with an increased risk of SCD in a middle-aged biracial general population. ABI could be incorporated into future SCD risk prediction models.

    Carotid Intima‐Media Thickness and the Risk of Sudden Cardiac Death: The ARIC Study and the CHS
    (American Heart Association, 2020-10-20) Suzuki, Takeki; Wang, Wanmei; Wilsdon, Anthony; Butler, Kenneth R.; Adabag, Selcuk; Griswold, Michael E.; Nambi, Vijay; Rosamond, Wayne; Sotoodehnia, Nona; Mosley, Thomas H.; Medicine, School of Medicine
    Background: Sudden cardiac death (SCD) is associated with severe coronary heart disease in the great majority of cases. Whether carotid intima-media thickness (C-IMT), a known surrogate marker of subclinical atherosclerosis, is associated with risk of SCD in a general population remains unknown. The objective of this study was to investigate the association between C-IMT and risk of SCD. Methods and Results We examined a total of 20 862 participants: 15 307 participants of the ARIC (Atherosclerosis Risk in Communities) study and 5555 participants of the CHS (Cardiovascular Health Study). C-IMT and common carotid artery intima-media thickness was measured at baseline by ultrasound. Presence of plaque was judged by trained readers. Over a median of 23.5 years of follow-up, 569 participants had SCD (1.81 cases per 1000 person-years) in the ARIC study. Mean C-IMT and common carotid artery intima-media thickness were associated with risk of SCD after adjustment for traditional risk factors and time-varying adjustors: hazard ratios (HRs) with 95% CIs for fourth versus first quartile were 1.64 (1.15-2.63) and 1.49 (1.05-2.11), respectively. In CHS, 302 participants developed SCD (4.64 cases per 1000 person-years) over 13.1 years. Maximum C-IMT was associated with risk of SCD after adjustment: HR (95% CI) for fourth versus first quartile was 1.75 (1.22-2.51). Presence of plaque was associated with 35% increased risk of SCD: HR (95% CI) of 1.37 (1.13-1.67) in the ARIC study and 1.32 (1.04-1.68) in CHS. Conclusions C-IMT was associated with risk of SCD in 2 biracial community-based cohorts. C-IMT may be used as a marker of SCD risk and potentially to initiate early therapeutic interventions to mitigate the risk.

    The hippocampal formation is a brain structure integrally involved in episodic memory, spatial navigation, cognition and stress responsiveness. Structural abnormalities in hippocampal volume and shape are found in several common neuropsychiatric disorders. To identify the genetic underpinnings of hippocampal structure here we perform a genome-wide association study (GWAS) of 33,536 individuals and discover six independent loci significantly associated with hippocampal volume, four of them novel. Of the novel loci, three lie within genes (ASTN2, DPP4 and MAST4) and one is found 200 kb upstream of SHH. A hippocampal subfield analysis shows that a locus within the MSRB3 gene shows evidence of a localized effect along the dentate gyrus, subiculum, CA1 and fissure. Further, we show that genetic variants associated with decreased hippocampal volume are also associated with increased risk for Alzheimer's disease (rg=-0.155). Our findings suggest novel biological pathways through which human genetic variation influences hippocampal volume and risk for neuropsychiatric illness.
