The Homocysteine Paradox [PDF]
There is little doubt that elevation of plasma total homocysteine is associated with increased cardiovascular risk. Over the past 2 decades, many large prospective studies have established that hyperhomocysteinemia predicts for an increased relative risk of coronary events, stroke, venous thromboembolism, and death.1,2 Hyperhomocysteinemia also has ...

Second‐trimester multimetabolite panel for early preeclampsia rule‐out
Abstract Objective We aimed to establish a high‐sensitivity, multimetabolite rule‐out model for the development of preeclampsia (PE), prioritizing minimizing false negatives to exclude low‐risk individuals from intensive surveillance confidently. Methods In this prospective, nested case–control study, maternal serum samples were collected between 20+0 ...

Primary hepatic cancer (PHC), especially hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC), is still a significant burden worldwide. The efficacy of diagnosis, treatment response monitoring, and prognostication using laboratory biomarkers is still a challenge. This study analyzed multi‐laboratory parameters pre‐ and post‐treatment and their associations with clinical and

Diabetic Peripheral Neuropathy: Molecular Staging, Risk Factors, Therapeutics, and Emerging Trends
The heterogeneous landscape of DPN can be unified through a tripartite pathogenic model encompassing progressive stages of metabolic dysregulation, chronic inflammation, and overt neuronal damage. Within this framework, six clinical subtypes were identified, namely, hyperglycemia‐driven, dyslipidemia‐driven, inflammation‐driven, dysvascularity‐driven ...
