Background The association of moderate hyperhomocysteinemia (HHcy) (15–30 μmol/L) with cardiovascular diseases (CVD) has been challenged by the lack of benefit of vitamin supplementation to lowering homocysteine. Consequently, the results of interventional studies have confused the debate regarding the management of patients with intermediate/severe HHcy. Objective We sought to evaluate the association of intermediate (30–100 μmol/L) and severe (>100 μmol/L) HHcy related to vitamin deficiencies and/or inherited disorders with CVD outcomes. Methods We performed a retrospective cross-sectional study on consecutive patients who underwent a homocysteine assay in a French University Regional Hospital Center. Patients with CVD outcomes were assessed for vitamin B12, folate, Hcy, methylmalonic acid, and next-generation clinical exome sequencing. Results We evaluated 165 patients hospitalized for thromboembolic and other cardiovascular (CV) manifestations among 1006 patients consecutively recruited. Among them, 84% (138/165) had Hcy >30 μmol/L, 27% Hcy >50 μmol/L (44/165) and 3% Hcy >100 μmol/L (5/165). HHcy was related to vitamin B12 and/or folate deficiency in 55% (87/165), mutations in one or more genes of one-carbon and/or vitamin B12 metabolisms in 11% (19/165), and severe renal failure in 15% (21/141) of the studied patients. HHcy was the single vascular risk retrieved in almost 9% (15/165) of patients. Sixty % (101/165) of patients received a supplementation to treat HHcy, with a significant decrease in median Hcy from 41 to 17 µmol/L (IQR: 33.6–60.4 compared with 12.1–28). No recurrence of thromboembolic manifestations was observed after supplementation and antithrombotic treatment of patients who had HHcy as a single risk, after ∼4 y of follow-up. Conclusion The high frequency of intermediate/severe HHcy differs from the frequent moderate HHcy reported in previous observational studies of patients with pre-existing CVD. Our study points out the importance of diagnosing and treating nutritional deficiencies and inherited disorders to reverse intermediate/severe HHcy associated with CVD outcomes.
