Association of high sensitivity C-reactive protein-triglyceride glucose index and chronic kidney disease: a cross-sectional study [PDF]
BackgroundChronic kidney disease (CKD) represents a significant global health burden. Its pathogenesis is closely linked to a state of metabolic inflammation, involving insulin resistance and chronic low-grade inflammation.

Association between different dimensions of C-reactive protein-triglyceride-glucose index and the incidence of frailty in middle-aged and elderly adults in China: a nationwide prospective cohort study [PDF]
Background Inflammation and metabolic disorders significantly contribute to frailty development. The C-reactive protein-triglyceride-glucose index (CTI) indicates both inflammation and insulin resistance (IR).

Cumulative of c-reactive protein-triglyceride glucose index exposure and risk of diabetes in middle-aged and older Chinese adults: findings from a national longitudinal cohort [PDF]
Background The C-reactive protein-triglyceride glucose index (CTI) was a new biomarker to assess systemic inflammation and metabolic disturbances. However, research on its association with diabetes remained limited.

The predictive value of C-reactive protein-triglycerides-glucose index-waist-to-height ratio for stroke: a nationwide cohort study [PDF]
Background Combining biomarkers and anthropometric indicators is a common way to improve predictive efficacy. Yet the effect of the C-reactive protein-triglycerides-glucose index (CTI) and its derivatives on stroke is unknown.

Pilot study to explain runout distances of debris flow and immature debris flow considering depositing rate [PDF]
In Japan, many debris flows and sediment-laden floods cause serious damage to human life and property. Effective measures require high-accuracy reproduction and prediction of runout distance (bed variation reach) via numerical simulations.

Axial Force Measurement Using Digital Image Correlation
As a simple and highly accurate axial force management method during manufacturing and maintenance of bolt-tightened structures, we examined a method to calculate the axial force from images of the bolt head. In this method, the axial force is calculated
