The serum creatinine to cystatin C to waist circumference ratios predicts risk for type 2 diabetes: A Chinese cohort study. [PDF]
Highlights Higher creatinine to cystatin C to waist circumference ratio (CCR/WC ratio) was associated with decreased risk of type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) among Chinese people. A nonlinear association was found between CCR/WC and T2DM risk. Abstract Background There is a lack of research regarding the relationship between creatinine to cystatin C to ...

Highlights Few studies have investigated the association of large‐scale biomarkers and pulse wave velocity (PWV) among diabetic patients. This study investigates the relationships of serum laboratory tests with PWV and explored the associations between PWV and all‐cause mortality among diabetic patients.

Evaluation of Cardiac Structure and Function in Patients with Wilson Disease Based on RT-3DE: a Clinical Study [PDF]
Background Wilson disease (WD) is a rare autosomal recessive disease that causes impaired copper excretion, mainly manifestedashepatic and/or neuropsychiatric symptoms, but diversifies with the varying affected organs and severity of the disease.

Highlights Transcutaneous oxygen pressure (TcPO2) could be used to assess microcirculation, which revealed endothelial injury. As endothelial injury is a cause of albuminuria in diabetic kidney disease (DKD), albuminuria and creatinine (ACR) might be employed to assess microcirculation in DKD patients in rural hospital where TcPO2 is not available. Our

Highlights All three estimated glomerular filtration rates (GFRs) (based on creatinine [eGFRcr], cystatin C [eGFRcys], or both [eGFRcr‐cys]) were more strongly associated with risk of all‐cause mortality among individuals with diabetes than among those without diabetes. Regardless of diabetes status, eGFRcys and eGFRcr‐cys were more strongly associated

Characteristics and Prognosis of Herat Failure with Improved Ejection Fraction [PDF]
BackgroundLeft ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) is often used to classify heart failure (HF) . Some HF patients were observed to have improved ejection fraction after treatment, thus giving rise to the concept of HF with improved EF (HFimpEF ...
