Abstract
PURPOSE Hyperuricemia is common among patients with chronic kidney disease (CKD). In the general population, hyperuricemia is associated with secondary hyperparathyroidism (SHPT), in a mechanism that involves vitamin D metabolism. Data for patients with CKD, however, are scarce. We aimed to evaluate the relationship between hyperuricemia and mineral and bone metabolism, particularly hyperparathyroidism. METHODS This is a retrospective study that included 922 adult patients with stages 3, 4, or 5 CKD, not on dialysis. Clinical, demographic, and biochemical data were collected from charts and included uric acid, parathyroid hormone (PTH), 25(OH)-vitamin D, calcium, phosphate, renal function (estimated glomerular filtration rate-eGFR), and medications such as allopurinol, furosemide, and cholecalciferol. SHPT was defined as PTH > 65 pg/ml. RESULTS Our patients were mostly Caucasian women, with a mean age of 64 ± 16 years. SHPT and hyperuricemia were observed in 70% and 62.4% of patients, respectively. Patients with SHPT presented higher levels of uric acid (7.2 ± 1.8 vs. 6.6 ± 1.7 mg/dL, p = 0.0001) and a higher frequency of hyperuricemia (66% vs. 33%, p = 0.0001). Patients with hyperuricemia were mostly female, with lower eGFR, higher phosphate, and higher PTH. The risk of hypovitaminosis D was higher among patients with SHPT (69.7% vs. 53.1%, p = 0.0001). Hyperuricemia remained independently associated with hyperparathyroidism, (p = 0.033) even after adjustments for eGFR, calcium, phosphate, hypovitaminosis D, and use of allopurinol, calcitriol, furosemide, and cholecalciferol. CONCLUSION Hyperuricemia seems to be a contributing factor for SHPT in patients with CKD. The mechanisms behind this finding have yet to be elucidated.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Childhood hypertension is a growing public health problem. Simultaneously, hypovitaminosis D is widespread in this population and could be associated with hypertension. This study systematically reviewed the literature on the relationship between vitamin D status and blood pressure (BP) in children and adolescents. METHODS Following the PRISMA guidelines, PUBMED, MEDLINE, CINAHL, EMBASE, Cochrane Library, and ClinicalTrials.gov and the gray literature without language or time restrictions were searched. We included observational studies, assessed their risk of bias, and extracted data on population characteristics, vitamin D status and BP measurements, and the association between the two variables. A narrative analysis of the studies was performed. RESULTS In total, 85 studies were included. Prospective cohort studies showed no association between vitamin D and BP, and generally, they were flawed. Also, the majority of non-prospective cohort studies (cross-sectional, retrospective, case-control) did not report an association between vitamin D and BP. They were mostly flawed regarding BP measurement and adjusting to potential confounders. CONCLUSION The results on the relationship between vitamin D status and BP in children and adolescents varied between the studies, and mainly pointed towards lack of association.

Excess serum uric acid is associated with metabolic syndrome in obese adolescent patients. J Diabetes Metab Disord 2020; 19:535-543. [PMID: 32548073 PMCID: PMC7270295 DOI: 10.1007/s40200-020-00507-2] [Citation(s) in RCA: 10] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/15/2019] [Accepted: 02/06/2020] [Indexed: 01/09/2023]
Abstract
Purpose Obesity is a significant cause of morbidity in adolescents. Excess serum uric acid (SUA) has been associated with metabolic syndrome (MS) among adults. We evaluated the relationship among SUA and markers of insulin resistance (IR) and low-grade inflammation in obese adolescents with and without MS. Methods The study was a retrospective chart review of obese patients seen in the LeBonheur Endocrine clinic seen in clinic between September 2016 and December 2017. MS was defined as according to the International Diabetes Federation. Body mass index standard deviation score (BMI SDS), systolic blood pressure (SBP), diastolic blood pressure (DBP), body composition, fasting lipids, glucose, high sensitivity c-reactive protein (hs-CRP), serum uric acid (SUA), HbA1c, alanine transferase (ALT), aspartate transferase (AST), insulin and homeostatic model assessment for insulin resistance (HOMA-IR) were extracted from the charts of the 100 obese adolescents (57% female). Results Hyperuricemia (SUA >357 umol/L) was present in 41.8% of entire cohort without significant ethnic/racial and/or gender differences. Adolescents with HUA had higher FM, SBP, HbA1c, insulin and HOMA-IR (p < 0.05). While SUA was positively correlated with FM, SBP, HOMA-IR and HbA1c, and triglyceride:HDL-C ratio (TG:HDL-C) (p < 0.05). MS was identified in 32.8% of cohort. MS showed significantly higher FM, SBP, DBP, SUA, ALT, insulin, HOMA-IR, and TG:HDL-c ratio than non-MS subgroup (p < 0.05). FM was positively correlated with SUA, HOMA-IR and hsCRP (p < 0.01). Conclusions In our study, those with hyperuricemia (HUA) showed elevated markers of metabolic syndrome including BP, serum glucoses, IR and triglycerides. In our cohort, SUA appears to correlate with MS comorbidities.

Mechanism Investigation of Tagetes patula L. against Chronic Nonbacterial Prostatitis by Metabolomics and Network Pharmacology. Molecules 2019; 24:molecules24122266.

Abstract
The major objective of this study was to investigate the anti-chronic nonbacterial prostatitis (CNP) mechanism of T. patula by metabolomics and network pharmacology. The study demonstrated that the flavonoids and polysaccharides of T. patula could alleviate prostatitis by improving the level of DHT, reducing the secretion of PSA and TNF-α. Besides, both could enhance Na+/K+-ATPase activity, decrease the O2 consumption, CO2 production, heat production, energy expenditure of rats and promote respiratory exchange ratio of rats. Up to 28 potential biomarkers and 8 key metabolic pathways related to the treatment of CNP were elucidated by the metabolomics analysis, including phenylalanine metabolism, taurine and hypotaurine metabolism, tryptophan metabolism etc. Network pharmacology prediction also reflected the potential mechanism was associated with tryptophan metabolism and energy pathway. Generally, the potential anti-CNP mechanism of flavonoids and polysaccharides of T. patula might be through reducing the expression of inflammation factors, adjusting the level of hormone and regulating the amino acid metabolism, energy metabolism and glucose and lipid metabolism.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Deficient 25-hydroxyvitamin D (25(OH)D) levels have been associated with dyslipidemia and cardiovascular diseases, though the underlying mechanism of these associations is uncertain. We analyzed associations between vitamin D and other non-lipid biomarkers of cardiovascular risk to better elucidate possible relationships between deficient 25(OH)D and cardiovascular disease. MATERIAL AND METHODS We performed a cross-sectional analysis of 4,591 adults included in a clinical laboratory database from 2009 to 2011 with available measurements for 25(OH)D and the following biomarkers: homocysteine (Hcy), high-sensitivity C-reactive protein (hs-CRP), cystatin-C, creatinine, γ-glutamyltransferase (GGT), uric acid, and hemoglobin A1c (HbA1c). We calculated odds ratios (OR) of having high levels of each biomarker associated with 25(OH)D deficiency (< 20 ng/ml) compared to optimal levels (≥ 30 ng/ml) using logistic regression adjusted for age, sex, and lipids. RESULTS The mean ± SD age was 60 ±14 years and 46% of patients were women. In multivariable-adjusted models, adults with deficient 25(OH)D compared to those with optimal levels had increased odds of elevated biomarkers as follows: Hcy (OR = 2.53, 95% CI: 1.92-3.34), hs-CRP (1.62, 1.36-1.93), cystatin-C (2.02, 1.52-2.68), creatinine (2.06, 1.35-3.14), GGT (1.39, 1.07-1.80), uric acid (1.60, 1.31-1.95), and HbA1c (2.47, 1.95-3.13). In analyses evaluating women and men separately, 25(OH)D deficient women but not men had increased odds of elevated levels of all biomarkers studied. There were significant interactions based on sex between 25(OH)D and Hcy (p = 0.003), creatinine (p = 0.004), uric acid (p = 0.040), and HbA1c (p = 0.037). CONCLUSIONS Deficient 25(OH)D is associated with elevated levels of many biomarkers of cardiovascular risk, particularly among women, in a United States population.
