DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): This is a competing renewal application of HL28266. The Healthy Women Study (HWS) began in 1983-1984 to evaluate the effects of menopause on cardiovascular risk factors. At the 8th postmenopausal visit, n=355 women had electron-beam computed tomography (EBCT) of the coronaries and the aorta and these were repeated 3 years later, n=193. Approximately 55% of the women had no coronary calcium (Ca) at their 1st EBCT and 45% at the 2nd EBCT, an approximate 25% incidence of new coronary Ca. Progression of coronary Ca was strongly related to prior coronary Ca levels with an estimated 50-60% increase per year. Risk factors measured premenopausally, age 47, were powerful predictors of the risk of coronary Ca, especially lipoproteins, estimated insulin resistance, visceral fat and waist circumference. In this renewal, we propose to: (a) further test whether measures of subclinical disease in other vascular beds, such as aortic calcification, are determinants of the risk of new coronary Ca among women with 0 coronary Ca at their 1st EBCT; (b) whether risk factors at baseline premenopausal (20 years previously) or, early in the postmenopause, or change in risk factors from early postmenopause are predictors of both the extent of coronary calcification and carotid plaque and intimal medial wall thickness (IMT) and progression over time; and (c) whether behavioral attributes are predictors of both the extent and progression of subclinical disease. The 300+ women who have completed their 2nd EBCT examination will have a 3rd examination approximately 3 years after the 2nd and 6 years from the 1st EBCT. We estimate that approximately 48% of women with no coronary Ca at the 1st EBCT will have new incident coronary Ca, n=80. The increase in coronary Ca for women with coronary Ca at 1st EBCT is about 50% per year. The extent of atherosclerosis in other vascular beds such as the number of calcifications in aorta and risk factors pre- and early postmenopause are likely to be primary determinants of progression of coronary Ca, especially number of low density lipoprotein (LDL) particles, small LDL cholesterol, insulin resistance (high insulin levels). The amount of visceral fat or higher waist circumference even early in postmenopause is the primary determinant of coronary Ca. The HWS follow up provides a unique opportunity to study the development of new coronary Ca and progression of coronary Ca and relationship to both pre- and postmenopausal risk factors.

描述（由申请人提供）：这是HL 28266的竞争性延续申请。健康妇女研究（HWS）始于1983-1984年，旨在评估绝经对心血管危险因素的影响。在第8次绝经后访视时，n=355名妇女进行了冠状动脉和主动脉的电子束计算机断层扫描（EBCT），3年后重复这些检查，n=193。大约55%的女性在第一次EBCT时没有冠状动脉钙（Ca），45%在第二次EBCT时，大约25%的新冠状动脉Ca发生率。冠状动脉钙的进展与既往冠状动脉钙水平密切相关，估计每年增加50-60%。 绝经前测量的危险因素，47岁，是冠状动脉钙风险的强有力的预测因子，特别是脂蛋白，估计胰岛素抵抗，内脏脂肪和腰围。在这次更新中，我们建议：（a）进一步检验其他血管床亚临床疾病的测量，如主动脉钙化，是否是首次EBCT时冠状动脉Ca为0的女性新发冠状动脉Ca风险的决定因素;（B）在基线绝经前是否存在风险因素（20年前）或绝经后早期，绝经后早期的危险因素或变化是冠状动脉钙化程度和颈动脉斑块及内膜中层壁的预测因子（c）行为属性是否是亚临床疾病的程度和进展的预测因子。 完成第二次EBCT检查的300多名女性将在第二次EBCT检查后约3年和第一次EBCT检查后约6年进行第三次检查。我们估计，约48%的女性在第一次EBCT时没有冠状动脉钙将有新的事件冠状动脉钙，n=80。在第一次EBCT时患有冠状动脉Ca的女性的冠状动脉Ca增加约为每年50%。其他血管床的动脉粥样硬化程度，如主动脉钙化数量和绝经前和绝经后早期的危险因素可能是冠状动脉Ca进展的主要决定因素，特别是低密度脂蛋白（LDL）颗粒数量、小LDL胆固醇、胰岛素抵抗（高胰岛素水平）。绝经后早期内脏脂肪量或较高腰围是冠状动脉钙化的主要决定因素。HWS随访为研究新冠状动脉Ca的发展和冠状动脉Ca的进展以及与绝经前和绝经后风险因素的关系提供了独特的机会。
