Slide Source: Lipids Online www.lipidsonline.org Summary Lifestyle modification and some pharmacotherapies (full-dose ASA, statins) lower hs-CRP Lipid-modifying therapies with oral estrogens and fibrates are not associated with reduction in hs-CRP Individuals with high levels of hs-CRP are at increased risk for CHD events and benefit from ASA and statins

Slide Source: Lipids Online www.lipidsonline.org Infection and CHD - is there a connection? Local or systemic infections resulting from gram negative bacteria such as Chlamydia pneumoniae and Helicobacter pylori, including cytomegalovirus (CMV) have been implicated in atheroscelosis While several case control studies have shown increased titers of C.pneumoniae and H. Pylori in those with vs. without CHD, convincing evidence from prospective studies is lacking.
31
Slide Source: Lipids Online www.lipidsonline.org Prospective Studies of CHD and Infectious Pathogens Physician’s Health Study (nested case- control) shows RR 1.1 (0.8-1.5) for C. Pneumoniae, 0.94 (0.7-1.2) for cytomegalovirus, and 0.72 (0.6-0.9) for Herpes simplex virus. H. pylori also shows mixed results. Whincup showed a nonsignificant 1.3 OR when adjusted for other risk factors, the large ARIC study showed no relation, and the Caerphilly Prospective study showed RR=1.05 in 1796 men followed 14 years.
32
Slide Source: Lipids Online www.lipidsonline.org Infectious Agents and the Future Individuals with greater infectious burdens may be at greater risk, because they are older, have poorer health habits, less access to care. Observed associations often may be due to selection biases or confounding from age and other factors Prospective clinical trials under way examining role of certain antibiotics such as azithromycin on reduction of recurrent events in CHD patients. Until these data are available, no role for measurement or treatment of infectious burden.
