Resumen:
The relationship between bile acids (BAs) and adverse cardiovascular events following acute coronary syndrome (ACS) have been little investigated. We aimed to examine the associations of BAs with the risk of cardiovascular events and all-cause mortality in ACS. We conducted a prospective study on 309 ACS patients who were followed for 10 years. Plasma BAs were quantified by liquid chromatography coupled to tandem mass spectrometry. Cox regression analyses with elastic net penalties were performed to associate BAs with MACE and all-cause mortality. Weighted scores were computed using the 100 iterated coefficients corresponding to each selected BA, and the associations of these scores with these adverse outcomes were assessed using multivariable Cox regression models. A panel of 10 BAs was significantly associated with the increased risk of MACE. The hazard ratio of MACE per SD increase in the estimated BA score was 1.35 (95% CI 1.12-1.63). Furthermore, four BAs were selected from the elastic net model for all-cause mortality, although their weighted score was not independently associated with mortality. Our findings indicate that primary and secondary BAs may play a significant role in the development of MACE. This insight holds potential for developing strategies to manage ACS and prevent adverse outcomes.
