Published by Oxford University Press for the Infectious Diseases Society of America.BACKGROUND Low serum bicarbonate level is associated with increased mortality, but its role as a predictor of cardiovascular disease (CVD) is unclear. This study evaluates the association between serum bicarbonate concentration and CVD and whether the effect of intensive blood pressure (BP) lowering on CVD outcomes is modified by serum bicarbonate level. METHODS The Systolic Blood Pressure Intervention Trial (SPRINT) randomized participants to a systolic BP target less then 120 mmHg (intensive treatment) or less then 140 mmHg (standard treatment). The primary CVD outcome was a composite of nonfatal myocardial infarction (MI), acute coronary syndrome not resulting in MI, stroke, acute decompensated heart failure and CVD death. Cox proportional hazards models adjusted for demographic, clinical and laboratory characteristics were used to evaluate the association of interest in 9334 SPRINT participants (ClinicalTrials.gov NCT01206062). RESULTS Over a median follow-up of 3.33 years (interquartile range 2.87-3.87 years), 618 (6.6%) participants experienced a primary CVD outcome. Participants with serum bicarbonate less then 22 mEq/L had a significantly higher risk of the primary CVD outcome (hazard ratio 1.54; 95% confidence interval 1.11-2.14, P = 0.01), compared with participants with bicarbonate 22-26 mEq/L. The magnitude of the CVD risk reduction with intensive BP lowering was similar across bicarbonate strata (P-value for interaction = 0.97). CONCLUSIONS In hypertensive individuals, serum bicarbonate level less then 22 mEq/L was associated with an increased CVD risk. The effect of intensive BP lowe
