Aims: We aimed to investigate the association between non-high-density lipoprotein cholesterol (non-HDL-C) levels and the risk of cardiovascular disease (CVD) and its subtypes. Methods: In this contemporary cohort study, we analyzed the data of 63,814 Japanese employees aged ≥ 30 years, without known CVD in 2012 and who were followed up for up to 8 years. The non-HDL-C level was divided into 5 groups: <110, 110-129, 130-149, 150-169, and ≥ 170 mg/dL. The Cox proportional hazards model was used to calculate the hazard ratios (HRs) and the corresponding 95% confidence intervals (CIs) for CVD and its subtypes associated with each non-HDL-C group, considering 130-149 mg/dL as the reference group. Results: During the study period, 271 participants developed CVD, including 78 myocardial infarctions and 193 strokes (102 ischemic strokes, 89 hemorrhagic strokes, and 2 unknowns). A U-shaped association between non-HDL-C and stroke was observed. In the analysis of stroke subtypes, the multivariable-adjusted HR (95% CI) for hemorrhagic stroke was 2.61 (1.19–5.72), 2.02 (0.95–4.29), 2.10 (1.01–4.36), and 1.98 (0.96-4.08), while that for ischemic stroke was 1.54 (0.77-3.07), 0.91 (0.46-1.80), 0.73 (0.38-1.41), and 1.50 (0.87-2.56) in the <110, 110-129, 150-169, and ≥ 170 mg/dL groups, respectively. Individuals with elevated non-HDL-C levels had a higher risk of myocardial infarction. Conclusions: High non-HDL-C levels were associated with an increased risk of myocardial infarction. Moreover, high and low non-HDL-C levels were associated with a high risk of stroke and its subtypes among Japanese workers.

Dendrobium officinale usually lives on rock or tree, but their endophyte diversity has not yet been fully revealed? In this study, high-throughput sequencing technology was used to investigate the endophyte diversity of the roots of D. officinale lived on tree (Group 1–3, arboreal type) and rock (Group 4, lithophytic type). The results showed that their composition of endophytic fungi and bacteria were similar at phylum level, while their relative abundance were different. Their taxa composition and abundance of endophytes differed significantly among groups at the genus level. Alpha diversity of endophytic fungi of lithophytic type was higher than those from arboreal type, while there was no advantage in endophytic bacteria. Beta diversity revealed that the endophytic fungi tended to cluster in each group, but the endophytic bacteria were dispersed among the groups. LEfSe analysis found that the numbers of predicted endophyte biomarkers of lithophytic type were more than arboreal types at genus level, and the biomarkers varied among groups. Microbial network analysis revealed similarities and differences in the taxa composition and abundance of shared and special endophytes in each group. These results suggested that the root endophytes of lithophytic and arboreal D. officinale differed in diversity.
