Abstract | <p><b>BACKGROUND: </b>The association between changes in IGF-I and IGF binding protein (IGFBP) levels and mortality in older adults is unknown.</p><p><b>STUDY DESIGN: </b>Participants were 997 persons 77 to 100 yr old enrolled in the Cardiovascular Health Study All Stars Study. Plasma levels of IGF-I, IGFBP-1, and IGFBP-3 were assessed at two study examinations (1996-1997 and 2005-2006). Mortality was assessed between 2006 and 2010.</p><p><b>RESULTS: </b>Cumulative mortality (CM) was similar among individuals who had at least 10% decreases over time in IGF-I levels (CM = 29.6%), individuals who had at least 10% increases over time in IGF-I levels (CM = 24.7%), and individuals who had IGF-I levels remaining within ±10% over time (CM = 23.5%). Adjusted for age, sex, race, diabetes, body mass index, creatinine, albumin, and C-reactive protein, decreasing IGF-I level had no significant association with overall cancer mortality or noncancer mortality. Levels of IGFBP-1 increased markedly over time by 38% (median). Individuals with the largest increases in IGFBP-1 level over time had significantly increased risk of mortality. The adjusted hazard ratio per sd of IGFBP-1 change was 1.40 for overall cancer mortality (95% confidence interval = 1.10, 1.77; P = 0.01) and 1.14 for noncancer mortality (95% confidence interval = 1.02, 1.27; P = 0.02). Changes in IGFBP-3 levels were not significantly associated with mortality.</p><p><b>CONCLUSION: </b>Among older adults, decreasing IGF-I level over time does not predict subsequent all-cause mortality, whereas increasing IGFBP-1 predicts increased risk of mortality.</p> |
