Abstract
OBJECTIVE α-HBDH serves as a biomarker of myocardial damage and is implicated in adverse outcomes across various critical illnesses. Our study aimed to assess the correlation between α-HBDH levels, and severity and recurrence of acute ischemic stroke (AIS). METHODS We enrolled patients with mild-to-moderate AIS within 72 h of onset. Based on the baseline score of the National Institutes of Health Stroke Scale (bNIHSS) at registration, patients were categorized into mild (bNIHSS ≤ 4 points) and moderate AIS groups (4 < bNIHSS ≤ 10 points). Subsequently, based on the normal upper limit of α-HBDH, patients were divided into low-level α-HBDH (≤ 180 U/L) and high-level α-HBDH (> 180 U/L) groups. Multivariate logistic regression analysis and Cox proportional hazard regression analysis were employed to evaluate the relationship between α-HBDH levels and bNIHSS scores as well as the risk of recurrent AIS within 90 days. RESULTS We observed a significant association between higher baseline levels of α-HBDH and increased bNIHSS scores, indicating a more severe AIS (odds ratio = 24.449; 95% confidence interval [CI], 8.749-68.324; p < 0.01). Additionally, the risk of recurrent AIS within 90 days was 4.666 times higher in the high-level α-HBDH group compared to the low-level group (hazard ratio = 4.666; 95% CI, 2.481-8.777; p < 0.01). CONCLUSIONS The baseline level of α-HBDH is significantly correlated with the severity of AIS and the risk of recurrent AIS within 90 days.

Serum α-hydroxybutyrate dehydrogenase as a biomarker for predicting survival outcomes in patients with UTUC after radical nephroureterectomy. BMC Urol 2024; 24:62. [PMID: 38509518 PMCID: PMC10953183 DOI: 10.1186/s12894-024-01439-2] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/30/2023] [Accepted: 02/26/2024] [Indexed: 03/22/2024] Open
Abstract
PURPOSE We aimed to determine the prognostic value of α-hydroxybutyrate dehydrogenase (α-HBDH) in upper tract urothelial carcinoma (UTUC) patients after radical nephroureterectomy (RNU). MATERIALS AND METHODS We retrospectively enrolled the data of 544 UTUC patients at West China Hospital from May 2003 to June 2019. Cancer-specific survival (CSS) was the endpoint of interest. The optimal cutoff value of α-HBDH was identified by X-Tile program. After propensity score matching (PSM), we utilized Kaplan‒Meier curves to estimate survival and Cox proportional hazard model for risk assessment. A nomogram was built based on the results of multivariate analysis, and calibration curve, time-dependent receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curves and decision curve analysis were also performed to evaluate the predictive accuracy. RESULTS Overall, 394 and 150 patients were divided into the α-HBDH-low group and α-HBDH -high group at the cutoff value of 158 U/L, respectively. After PSM, the two groups were well matched for all confounding factors. High α-HBDH was associated with inferior CSS (P = 0.006), and preoperative α-HBDH was an independent predictor for CSS (HR: 1.36; 95% CI:1.08, 1.80), especially in localized UTUC patients (HR: 2.04; 95% CI:1.11, 3.74). Furthermore, the nomogram based on α-HBDH achieved great predictive ability for CSS with areas under the curves of 0.800 and 0.778 for 3-year and 5-year CSS, respectively. CONCLUSION Serum α-HBDH was a novel and reliable biomarker for predicting survival outcomes in UTUC patients after RNU but should be further explored.

Differences in the severity and mortality risk factors for patients hospitalized for COVID-19 pneumonia between the early wave and the very late stage of the pandemic. Front Med (Lausanne) 2023; 10:1238713. [PMID: 37841011 PMCID: PMC10568453 DOI: 10.3389/fmed.2023.1238713] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/12/2023] [Accepted: 09/13/2023] [Indexed: 10/17/2023] Open
Abstract
Background Since China's dynamic zero-COVID policy is cancelled on December 7, 2022, the rapidly growing number of patients has brought a major public health challenge. This study aimed to assess whether there were differences in the severity and mortality risk factors for patients hospitalized for COVID-19 pneumonia between the early wave and the very late stage of the pandemic. Methods A retrospective cross-sectional study was carried out using data from 223 hospitalized patients diagnosed with COVID-19 pneumonia during the Omicron surge in Xi'an People's Hospital (Xi'an Fourth Hospital) from December 8, 2022, to January 31, 2023. Univariable and multivariable logistic regression analyses were used to identify potential risk factors associated with the severity and mortality of COVID-19 pneumonia during the first wave of the pandemic after the dynamic zero-COVID policy was retracted. Differences in the severity and mortality risk factors were assessed at different stages of the pandemic, mainly from demographic, clinical manifestation, laboratory tests and radiological findings of patients on admission. Results The mean age of the 223 participants was 71.2 ± 17.4. Compared with the patients in the initial stage of the pandemic, the most common manifestation among patients in this study was cough (90.6%), rather than fever (79.4%). Different from the initial stage of the pandemic, older age, chest tightness, elevated neutrophil-to-lymphocyte ratio (NLR), decreased albumin (ALB) level and ground glass opacification (GGO) in radiological finding were identified as severity risk factors, instead of mortality risk factors for COVID-19 patients in the very late stage of the pandemic. Arterial partial pressure of oxygen/fraction of inspired oxygen (PaO2/FiO2) ≤300 mmHg, cardiovascular disease and laboratory findings including elevated levels of D-dimer, α-hydroxybutyrate dehydrogenase (α-HBDH), total bilirubin (TBIL), alanine aminotransferase (ALT), urea nitrogen (BUN), creatinine (CR), fasting blood glucose (FBG) and decreased platelet count (PLT) were still associated with mortality in the very late stage of the pandemic. Conclusion Monitoring continuously differences in the severity and mortality risk factors for COVID-19 patients between different stages of the pandemic could provide evidence for exploring uncharted territory in the coming post-pandemic era.

Abstract
Background Sepsis stands as a dire medical condition, arising when the body's immune response to infection spirals into overdrive, paving the way for potential organ damage and potential mortality. With intestinal flora's known impact on sepsis but a dearth of comprehensive data, our study embarked on a two-sample Mendelian randomization analysis to probe the causal link between gut microbiota and their metabolites with severe sepsis patients who succumbed within a 28-day span. Methods Leveraging data from Genome-wide association study (GWAS) and combining it with data from 2,076 European descendants in the Framingham Heart Study, single-nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) were employed as Instrumental Variables (IVs) to discern gene loci affiliated with metabolites. GWAS summary statistics for sepsis were extracted from the UK Biobank consortium. Results In this extensive exploration, 93 distinct genome-wide significant SNPs correlated with gut microbial metabolites and specific bacterial traits were identified for IVs construction. Notably, a substantial link between Coprococcus2 and both the incidence (OR of 0.80, 95% CI: 0.68-0.94, P=0.007) and the 28-day mortality rate (OR 0.48, 95% CI: 0.27-0.85, P=0.013) of sepsis was observed. The metabolite α-hydroxybutyrate displayed a marked association with sepsis onset (OR=1.08, 95% CI: 1.02-1.15, P=0.006) and its 28-day mortality rate (OR=1.17, 95% CI: 1.01-1.36, P=0.029). Conclusion This research unveils the intricate interplay between the gut microbial consortium, especially the genus Coprococcus, and the metabolite α-hydroxybutyrate in the milieu of sepsis. The findings illuminate the pivotal role of intestinal microbiota and their metabolites in sepsis' pathogenesis, offering fresh insights for future research and hinting at novel strategies for sepsis' diagnosis, therapeutic interventions, and prognostic assessments.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Severe fever with thrombocytopenia syndrome (SFTS) usually demonstrates multi-organ injury with a high mortality rate. This study aimed to investigate associations of serum aspartate/alanine aminotransferase (AST)/ALT, cytosolic AST (cAST)/ALT and mitochondrial AST (mAST)/ALT ratios with the prognosis of SFTS patients. METHODS A total of 355 confirmed SFTS patients were included. Clinical and laboratory data were compared between survivors and nonsurvivors. Logistic regression analysis was used to assess the independent risk factors for fatality in all patients and those admitted to the intensive care unit (ICU). The predictive values of the risk factors and constructed risk models were evaluated. RESULTS Mean age and biochemical parameters were significantly greater in nonsurvivors than in survivors. In ICU patients, the three ratios, high-sensitivity troponin I (hsTnI), creatine kinase (CK), lactate dehydrogenase (LDH) and α-hydroxybutyrate dehydrogenase (α-HBDH) were elevated markedly in nonsurvivors than in survivors. Multivariate logistic regression analysis showed that age, three ratios and α-HBDH were independent risk factors for mortality in all patients. Only the three ratios were independent risk factors for death in ICU patients. Risk Models (M1, M2 and M3) and simplified models (sMs) containing the three ratios respectively had comparatively high predictive values for fatality in all patients with area under ROC curves (AUCs) > 0.85. In ICU patients, mAST/ALT ratio had the highest predictive value, sensitivity and odds ratio (OR) for mortality among three ratios. CONCLUSION AST/ALT, cAST/ALT and mAST/ALT ratios were associated with unfavorable clinical outcome of SFTS. The prognostic value of mAST/ALT ratio was higher in severe cases.

Abstract
This study set out to determine the key metabolite changes underlying the pathophysiology of severe preeclampsia (PE) using metabolic analysis. We collected sera from 10 patients with severe PE and from 10 healthy pregnant women of the same trimester and analyzed them using liquid chromatography mass spectrometry. A total of 3,138 differential metabolites were screened, resulting in the identification of 124 differential metabolites. Kyoto encyclopedia of genes and genomes pathway analysis revealed that they were mainly enriched in the following metabolic pathways: central carbon metabolism in cancer; protein digestion and absorption; aminoacyl-transfer RNA biosynthesis; mineral absorption; alanine, aspartate, and glutamate metabolism; and prostate cancer. After analysis of 124 differential metabolites, 2-hydroxybutyric acid was found to be the most critical differential metabolite, and its use allowed the differentiation of women with severe PE from healthy pregnant women. In summary, our analysis revealed that 2-hydroxybutyric acid is a potential key metabolite for distinguishing severe PE from healthy controls and is also a marker for the early diagnosis of severe PE, thus allowing early intervention.

Abstract
Background and aims Cardiac enzymes are recognized as a valuable tool for predicting the prognosis of various cardiovascular diseases. The prognostic value of alpha-hydroxybutyrate dehydrogenase (α-HBDH) in patients with intracerebral hemorrhage (ICH) was ambiguous and not evaluated. Methods Two hundred and thirteen Chinese patients with ICH participated in the study from December 2018 to December 2019. Laboratory routine tests and cardiac enzymes, including α-HBDH level, were examined and analyzed. All the patients were classified into two groups by the median value of α-HBDH: B1 <175.90 and B2 ≥175.90 U/L. The clinical outcomes included functional outcome (according to modified Rankin Scale (mRS) score ≥3), all-cause death, and recurrent cerebro-cardiovascular events 1 year after discharge. Associations between the α-HBDH and the outcomes were evaluated using logistic regression analysis. Univariate survival analysis was performed by the Kaplan-Meier method and log-rank test. Results Of the 213 patients, 117 had α-HBDH ≥175.90 U/L. Eighty-two patients had poor functional outcomes (mRS≥3). During the 1-year follow-up, a total of 20 patients died, and 15 of them had α-HBDH ≥175.90 U/L during the follow-up time. Moreover, 24 recurrent events were recorded. After adjusting confounding factors, α-HBDH (≥175.90) remained an indicator of poor outcome (mRS 3-6), all-cause death, and recurrent cerebro-cardiovascular events. The ORs for B2 vs. B1 were 4.78 (95% CI: 2.60 to 8.78, P = 0.001), 2.63 (95% CI: 0.80 to 8.59, P = 0.11), and 2.40 (95% CI: 0.82 to 7.02, P = 0.11) for poor functional outcomes with mRS ≥ 3, all-cause death, and recurrent cerebro-cardiovascular events, respectively. Conclusion Increased α-HBDH at admission was independently related to poor functional outcome and all-cause mortality in patients with ICH at 1-year follow-up.

Abstract
Background Previous Study Found That Implantation of a Cardioverter-Defibrillator Likely Caused a Worse Prognosis in Older Patients With non-Ischemic Systolic Heart Failure. This Suggests That More Precise Risk Stratification Is Needed in Elderly Patients. We Conducted a Retrospective Study to Evaluate the Association of α-Hydroxybutyrate Dehydrogenase (α-HBDH) With Mortality During Hospitalization in Elderly Patients With non-Ischemic Dilated Cardiomyopathy (NIDCM). Methods 1,019 Elderly Patients (age ≥60 Years) Diagnosed With NIDCM Were Retrospectively Enrolled From January 2010 to December 2019. Univariate and Multivariate Analyses Were Showed to Explore the Relationship Between α-HBDH and in- Hospital Death. Results Patients in elevated α-HBDH group (>182 U/L) had a longer hospital stays and higher in-hospital mortality. Univariate logistics regression analysis showed that elevated α-HBDH was significantly related to mortality (OR: 7.004, 95% CI: 3.583–13.693, p < 0.001). Receiver operator characteristic (ROC) curve analysis reflected that α-HBDH levels had excellent predictive power for in-hospital death (AUC = 0.810, 95% CI: 0.745–0.876, p < 0.001). After adjustment of age, serum creatine, albumin and LVEF, multivariate regression analysis validated the association of elevated α-HBDH with increased risk of in-hospital death (p < 0.05). Conclusions Elevated α-HBDH level is significantly related to in-hospital mortality in older patients with NIDCM.

[PMID: 35078628 DOI: 10.1016/j.surg.2021.08.045] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/22/2021] [Revised: 08/25/2021] [Accepted: 08/26/2021] [Indexed: 02/05/2023]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Preoperative serum alpha-hydroxybutyrate dehydrogenase is reportedly associated with myocardial infarction. Myocardial injury after noncardiac surgery is independently associated with postoperative mortality. However, the association between preoperative alpha-hydroxybutyrate dehydrogenase and outcomes after noncardiac surgery has not been researched. We aimed to assess the association between preoperative serum alpha-hydroxybutyrate dehydrogenase levels and mortality and morbidity after noncardiac surgery. METHODS We conducted a retrospective cohort study on patients undergoing noncardiac surgery from 2018 to 2020 in Sichuan University West China Hospital. After multivariate adjustment, the alpha-hydroxybutyrate dehydrogenase level was verified to be associated with postoperative outcomes by logistic regression analyses and propensity score weighting methods. RESULTS We obtained data from 130,880 patients. An elevated preoperative serum alpha-hydroxybutyrate dehydrogenase level was associated with increasing mortality (odds ratio 1.244, 1.190-1.300; P < .001), myocardial injury after noncardiac surgery (odds ratio 1.198, 1.141-1.257; P < .001), and intensive care unit admission (odds ratio 1.138, 1.111-1.166; P < .001) in logistic regression analyses. The covariate balancing generalized propensity score methodology demonstrated similar results. After classifying alpha-hydroxybutyrate dehydrogenase as a binary variable with a cut-off value of 182, we found that mortality, myocardial injury after noncardiac surgery, and intensive care unit admission >24 hours were significantly higher in the elevated alpha-hydroxybutyrate dehydrogenase group (5.458% vs 0.737%; odds ratio 1.771, 1.533-2.046; P < .001), (3.598% vs 0.572%; odds ratio 1.636, 1.393-1.922; P < .001), and (18.182% vs 6.442%; odds ratio 1.430, 1.327-1.542; P < .001), respectively. Similarly, the inverse-probability-of-treatment weighted estimation demonstrated similar results. CONCLUSION Our results suggest that the preoperative serum alpha-hydroxybutyrate dehydrogenase level was associated with in-hospital mortality, myocardial injury after noncardiac surgery, and intensive care unit admission after noncardiac surgery.

Front Med (Lausanne) 2021; 8:733999. [PMID: 34859002 PMCID: PMC8631935 DOI: 10.3389/fmed.2021.733999] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/30/2021] [Accepted: 10/04/2021] [Indexed: 12/23/2022] Open
Abstract
Background: To explore the differences in clinical manifestations and infection marker determination for early diagnosis of coronavirus disease-2019 (COVID-19) and influenza (A and B). Methods: A hospital-based retrospective cohort study was designed. Patients with COVID-19 and inpatients with influenza at a sentinel surveillance hospital were recruited. Demographic data, medical history, laboratory findings, and radiographic characteristics were summarized and compared between the two groups. The chi-square test or Fisher's exact test was used for categorical variables, and Kruskal–Wallis H-test was used for continuous variables in each group. Receiver operating characteristic curve (ROC) was used to differentiate the intergroup characteristics. The Cox proportional hazards model was used to analyze the predisposing factors. Results: About 23 patients with COVID-19 and 74 patients with influenza were included in this study. Patients with influenza exhibited more symptoms of cough and sputum production than COVID-19 (p < 0.05). CT showed that consolidation and pleural effusion were more common in influenza than COVID-19 (p < 0.05). Subgroup analysis showed that patients with influenza had high values of infection and coagulation function markers, but low values of blood routine and biochemical test markers than patients with COVID-19 (mild or moderate groups) (p < 0.05). In patients with COVID-19, the ROC analysis showed positive predictions of albumin and hematocrit, but negative predictions of C-reactive protein (CRP), procalcitonin (PCT), lactate dehydrogenase (LDH), hydroxybutyrate dehydrogenase (HBDH), and erythrocyte sedimentation rate. Multivariate analysis revealed that influenza might associate with risk of elevated CRP, PCT, and LDH, whereas COVID-19 might associated with high HBDH. Conclusion: Patients with influenza had more obvious clinical symptoms but less common consolidation lesions and pleural effusion than those with COVID-19. These findings suggested that influenza likely presents with stronger inflammatory reactions than COVID-19, which provides some insights into the pathogenesis of these two contagious respiratory illnesses.

Abstract
Cardiac resynchronization therapy (CRT) based on biventricular pacing (BVP) is an invaluable intervention currently used in heart failure (HF) patients. The therapy involves electromechanical dyssynchrony, which can not only improve heart function and quality of life but also reduce hospitalization and mortality rates. However, approximately 30% to 40% of patients remain unresponsive to conventional BVP in clinical practice. In the recent years, extensive research has been employed to find a more physiological approach to cardiac resynchronization. The His-Purkinje system pacing (HPSP) including His bundle pacing (HBP) and left bundle branch area pacing (LBBaP) may potentially be the future of CRT. These technologies present various advantages including offering an almost real physiological pacing, less complicated procedures, and economic feasibility. Additionally, other methods, such as isolated left-ventricular pacing and multipoint pacing, may in the future be important but non-mainstream alternatives to CRT because currently, there is no strong evidence to support their effectiveness. This article reviews the current situation and latest progress in CRT, explores the existing technology, and highlights future prospects in the development of CRT.
