Artigo Association between kidney function and Framingham risk score in an admixed population of Brazil(Brazilian Journal of Pharmaceutical Sciences, 2018-02) Evangelista, Karine Cavalcanti Maurício de Sena; Costa, Brunna Soares Rodrigues; Freitas, Erika Paula Silva; Cruz, Marina Sampaio; Duarte, Victor Hugo Rezende; Silva, Ananília Medeiros Gomes da; Santos, Isabelle Cristina Clemente dos; Santos, Jéssica Cavalcante dos; Rezende, Adriana Augusto; Silbiger, Vivian NogueiraChronic kidney disease (CKD) increases cardiovascular disease (CVD) risk development. However, the mechanisms of reduced kidney function with CVD risk are unclear. This study aimed to investigate the association between kidney function and Framingham risk score (FRS) in participants with traditional cardiovascular risk factors and normal estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) > 60 mL/min/1.73 m² in an admixed population of Brazil. The participants were divided into three groups according to FRS: low risk group with 0% to <10%, moderate risk group with ≥10% to 20% and high risk group with >20%. The eGFR was calculated using Chronic Kidney Disease Epidemiology Collaboration (CKD-EPI). Data from participants were collected by questionnaire, and blood and urine samples were collected to analyze biochemical markers. A total of 214 subjects aged 53±10 years old was collected. There were 77 individuals in low risk group, 59 in moderate risk group and 78 in high-risk group. Mean eGFRCKD-EPI was 89.39±15.05 mL/min/1.73 m² and 90.74±16.17 mL/min/1.73 m2 when race adjustment. The results indicated that there is an increasing the cardiovascular risk with a decreased of eGFR, conforming to a significant inverse correlation observed between eGFR and FRS with Spearman correlation (R²=-0.256, p<0.001; R²=-0.224, p=0.001, when adjusted for race). There was a statistically significant difference in eGFRCKD-EPI (p<0.001) and eGFRCKD-EPI with race adjustment (p=0.002) among risk groups. The data suggests that the reduction eGFR is associated with elevated FRS among Brazilian adults without CKD. Furthermore, the results suggest that race adjustment it’s not necessary in Brazilian populationArtigo Factors associated with increased alpha-tocopherol content in milk in response to maternal supplementation with 800 IU of vitamin E(Nutrients, 2019) Ribeiro, Karla Danielly da Silva; Rebouças, Amanda de Sousa; Silva, Ana Gabriella Costa Lemos da; Oliveira, Amanda Freitas de; Silva, Lorena Thalia Pereira da; Felgueiras, Vanessa de Freitas; Cruz, Marina Sampaio; Silbiger, Vivian Nogueira; Dimenstein, Roberto; 0000-0002-2251-5967Background: Vitamin E supplementation might represent an efficient strategy to increase the vitamin E content in milk. The present study aimed to evaluate the impact of supplementation with 800 IU RRR-alpha-tocopherol on the alpha-tocopherol content of milk and the factors associated with the increase in vitamin E. Methods: Randomized clinical trial with 79 lactating women from Brazil, who were assigned to the control group, or to the supplemented group (800 IU of RRR-alpha-tocopherol). Milk and serum were collected between 30 and 90 days after delivery (collection 1), and on the next day (collection 2). Alpha-tocopherol was analyzed using high-performance liquid chromatography. Results: In the supplemented group, the alpha-tocopherol content in serum and milk increased after supplementation (p < 0.001). In the multivariate analysis, only alpha-tocopherol in milk (collection 1) was associated with the level of this vitamin in milk after supplementation (β = 0.927, p < 0.001), and binary logistic regression showed that the dietary intake was the only determinant for the greater effect of supplementation in milk. Conclusion: The pre-existing vitamin level in milk and diet are determinants for the efficacy of supplementation in milk, suggesting that in populations with vitamin E deficiency, high-dose supplementation can be used to restore its level in milk.Artigo The let-7b-5p, miR-326, and miR-125a-3p are associated with left ventricular systolic dysfunction in post-myocardial infarction(Frontiers in Cardiovascular Medicine, 2023-05) Reis, Bruna Zavarize; Komatsu, Raquel Costa Silva Dantas; Cruz, Marina Sampaio; Freire, Paula Paccielli; Diniz, Rosiane Viana Zuza; Bortolin, Raul Hernandes; Marques, Otávio Cabral; Souza, Kamilla Batista da Silva; Hirata, Mario Hiroyuki; Hirata, Rosario Dominguez Crespo; Jurisica, Igor; Silbiger, Vivian Nogueira; Luchessi, André DucatiBackground: Acute ST-elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) can lead to adverse cardiac remodeling, resulting in left ventricular systolic dysfunction (LVSd) and heart failure. Epigenetic regulators, such as microRNAs, may be involved in the physiopathology of LVSd. Objective: This study explored microRNAs in peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMC) of post-myocardial infarction patients with LVSd. Methods: Post-STEMI patients were grouped as having (LVSd, n = 9) or not LVSd (non-LVSd, n = 16). The expression of 61 microRNAs was analyzed in PBMC by RT-qPCR and the differentially expressed microRNAs were identified. Principal Component Analysis stratified the microRNAs based on the development of dysfunction. Predictive variables of LVSd were investigated through logistic regression analysis. A system biology approach was used to explore the regulatory molecular network of the disease and an enrichment analysis was performed. Results: The let-7b-5p (AUC: 0.807; 95% CI: 0.63–0.98; p = 0.013), miR-125a-3p (AUC: 0.800; 95% CI: 0.61–0.99; p = 0.036) and miR-326 (AUC: 0.783; 95% CI: 0.54–1.00; p = 0.028) were upregulated in LVSd ( p < 0.05) and discriminated LVSd from non-LVSd. Multivariate logistic regression analysis showed let-7b-5p (OR: 16.00; 95% CI: 1.54–166.05; p = 0.020) and miR-326 (OR: 28.00; 95% CI: 2.42–323.70; p = 0.008) as predictors of LVSd. The enrichment analysis revealed association of the targets of these three microRNAs with immunological response, cell-cell adhesion, and cardiac changes. Conclusion: LVSd alters the expression of let-7b-5p, miR-326, and miR-125a-3p in PBMC from post-STEMI, indicating their potential involvement in the cardiac dysfunction physiopathology and highlighting these miRNAs as possible LVSd biomarkers
