Objectives: This study aims to evaluate cluster of differentiation 146 (CD146) and pulse wave velocity (PWV) as non-invasive methods for prediction of early vascular affection in systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) patients without symptoms of vascular disease, to detect the outcome and reproducibility of these methods, and to correlate CD146 and PWV with lipid profile, intima media thickness (IMT), and ankle brachial index. Patients and methods: Thirty female SLE patients (mean age 26.6±6.6 years; range 15 to 35 years) fulfilling the American College of Rheumatology 1997 revised criteria for SLE classification, and 15 age and sex matched healthy controls were included. All participants were performed full clinical assessments including measurement of Systemic Lupus Erythematosus Disease Activity Index, lipid profile, CD146, carotid IMT, PWV, and rise time as an indication of how fast the waveform rises. Results: Cluster of differentiation 146 levels were elevated in patients with SLE compared to controls (p<0.001). There was a statistically significant difference between patients and controls in the femoral, lower thigh, and ankle rise time. There was a statistically significant correlation between IMT and ages of patients, Systemic Lupus Erythematosus Disease Activity Index, and brachial-below knee PWV, while there was no correlation between IMT and disease duration, lipid profile, brachial-femoral PWV, and brachial-ankle PWV. There was statistically significant correlations between brachial-femoral PWV and serum cholesterol level, and between brachial-ankle PWV and low density lipoprotein cholesterol. Conclusion: Our results showed that SLE vascular affection is more pronounced in small arteries. Also, elevated CD146 and brachial-femoral PWV are useful early markers of vascular affection in SLE as well as rise time may be a marker for arterial stiffness.

“…aimed to determine the possible relation of ascending baPWV to CAD risk factors and atheromatous changes in the coronary and lower extremity arteries (9). Baseline characteristics and biochemical results indicated that in the groups of baPWV, patients with a history of DM and smoking were more prevalent in the severe stiffness group, which was in agreement with previous reports.…”

Coronary artery disease (CAD) isbaseline data for each patient. All patients underwent cardioangiography and were divided into four groups according to their Gensini scores: a control group, and groups with a mild, moderate, or severe degree of stenosis. One hundred and five of these patients simultaneously underwent angiography of the lower extremities and were divided into four groups according to the degree of artery stenosis: a control group, and groups with a mild, moderate, or severe degree of stenosis. Grouping of baPWV levels was made according to Japanese surveys. Bilateral baPWV and ABI were measured using non-invasive arterial atherosclerosis measuring equipment. In the coronary artery groups based on Gensini score, ABI in the group with a high degree of stenosis was significantly lower than that in the control and moderate stenosis groups, while the baPWV was significantly higher than that in the control and mild stenosis groups. In the grouping of baPWV levels, it was indicated that the ABI level was significantly different between each group. The ABI <0.9 in groups with baPWV <1,400 cm/s and >2,100 cm/s was higher than that in other groups. In the grouping by angiography of the lower extremities, the ABI level was decreased with increasing degree of artery stenosis while the baPWV levels were increased under the same circumstance (p <0.05 or p <0.01). Logistic regression analysis indicated that relatively low ABI, high baPWV, abnormal fasting blood glucose, and smoking were independent risk factors for the development of cardiovascular diseases. The simultaneous measurement of bilateral baPWV and ABI using the newly developed equipment presented herein is

“…Brachial-ankle PWV was reported to have a high correlation with aortic PWV and is therefore considered a good alternative to aortic PWV (39). Recent studies have shown that baPWV is related to IMT, carotid plaque (40,41), calcification of the abdominal aorta (42), systemic vascular damage (43), and metabolic syndrome (44). In terms of its association with cardiovascular outcomes, baPWV was reported to correlate with coronary heart diseases (11), stroke (12), and overall cardiovascular death (13).…”
