Joint effects of serum ferritin and body mass index on the risk of coronary artery disease: a case–control study

Abstract: ObjectivesSerum ferritin and body mass index (BMI) have been reportedly associated with coronary artery disease (CAD) risk. The aim of the present study was to explore the interaction between serum ferritin and BMI on CAD risk.DesignHospital-based case–control study.SettingPatients with CAD and the controls were recruited from Qilu Hospital, Shandong University.Participants258 CAD cases and 282 healthy controls.MethodsMultiplicative interaction was assessed through a cross-product interaction term in a multiva… Show more

“…A case-control study reported that serum ferritin and BMI had an additive interaction on the risk of CAD. 33 In the present study, raised ferritin levels were observed in overweight and obese individuals as classified by South Asian criteria of BMI.…”

“…CAD patients with obesity are referred to cardiac rehabilitation and those who were enrolled in cardiac rehabilitation programme showed decreased weight and BMI (Sadeghiet et al 2013). However, while most earlier casecontrol studies showed significantly higher mean BMI (Kosuge et al 2006;Amani et al 2010;Singh et al 2013;Zhou et al 2013), Panwar et al (2011) could not find significant difference in BMI between patients and controls. There were also studies that showed higher prevalence of obesity in CAD patients than controls (Amani et al 2010;Singh et al 2013).…”

“…For example, serum ferritin levels and body mass index have an additive effect on the risk of coronary artery disease. 15 Cigarette smoking interacts synergistically with chronic infection of hepatitis C virus in men and with heavy alcohol consumption in women. 16 These reports suggest that smoking in women may interact with OC use in cervical carcinogenesis.…”
