Predictive Value of the Naples Prognostic Score on Long-Term Outcomes in Patients with Peripheral Artery Disease Revascularized via Percutaneous Intervention. Ann Vasc Surg 2024; 102:121-132. [PMID: 38307231 DOI: 10.1016/j.avsg.2023.11.028] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/23/2023] [Revised: 10/15/2023] [Accepted: 11/01/2023] [Indexed: 02/04/2024]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Lower extremity peripheral artery disease (PAD) is the third most common clinical manifestation of atherosclerosis after coronary artery disease and stroke. Despite successful endovascular treatment (EVT), mortality and morbidity rates still remain higher in patients with PAD. Naples prognostic score (NPS) is a novel scoring system, reflects the patient's nutritional and immunological statuses as well as systemic inflammatory responses. In this study, we aimed to investigate the relationship between NPS and long-term outcomes in patients with PAD. METHODS The population of this retrospective study consisted of 629 PAD patients who underwent EVT at Kafkas University Hospital between 2020 and 2023. For each patient, the NPS was calculated and then patients were divided into 3 groups based on their NPS. The primary end point of the study was the rate of major adverse cardiovascular (MACEs) and limb events (MALEs), that is, all-cause death or development of critical limb ischemia with consequent amputation. RESULTS Of a total of 629 patients, 62 were classified into group 0 (NPS 0), 315 into group 1 (NPS 1 or 2), and 252 into group 2 (NPS 3 or 4). The distribution of patients' baseline characteristics, angiographic features and MACEs and MALEs according to the NPS groups was analyzed. Significant adverse outcomes differences were observed among the 3 groups (P < 0.001). Multivariate logistic regression analysis revealed that age, diabetes mellitus, chronic kidney disease, lowest preprocedure ankle-brachial index, left ventricular ejection fraction and NPS (hazard ratio 1.916, 95% confidence interval [CI] 1.530-2.398, P < 0.001) were independent predictors of MACE whereas diabetes mellitus, presence of previous PAD, hemoglobin level, in-hospital acute thrombotic occlusion and NPS (odds ratio 1.963, 95% CI 1.489-2.588, P < 0.001) were independent predictors of MALE. CONCLUSIONS The inflammatory and nutritional state reflected by NPS levels was strongly associated with all-cause mortality and amputation after EVT in patients with PAD. Furthermore, NPS was found to be an independent predictor of these clinical outcomes.

Front Endocrinol (Lausanne) 2024; 15:1272573. [PMID: 38405142 PMCID: PMC10884210 DOI: 10.3389/fendo.2024.1272573] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/04/2023] [Accepted: 01/22/2024] [Indexed: 02/27/2024] Open
Abstract
Aim The aim of this study is to explore the association between red blood cell distribution width-to-albumin ratio (RAR) and the risk of peripheral artery disease (PAD) in patients with diabetes. Methods This cross-sectional study extracted the data of 1,125 participants with diabetes from the National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey database. A weighted univariable logistic regression model was used to explore variables associated with PAD. With PAD as the outcome variable, a weighted logistic regression model was established. The odds ratio (OR) and 95% confidence interval (CI) were effect size. Results After adjusting for covariates, the risk of PAD in patients with diabetes was observed in those with higher RAR (OR = 1.83; 95% CI: 1.06-3.15). In addition, RAR ≥3.25 was related to increased risk of PAD in patients with diabetes (OR = 2.04; 95% CI: 1.05-3.95). In people with diabetes aged ≥65, RAR was a risk factor for PAD with an OR value of 2.67 (95% CI: 1.30-5.46). RAR ≥3.25 was associated with increased risk of PAD (OR = 3.06; 95% CI: 1.15-8.11) relative to RAR <2.80. In people with diabetes who smoked, the risk of PAD was elevated in those with RAR ≥3.25 (OR = 2.85; 95% CI: 1.28-6.32). As for patients with cardiovascular disease, the risk of PAD was elevated as the increase of RAR (OR = 2.31; 95% CI: 1.05-5.10). RAR ≥3.25 was correlated with increased risk of PAD (OR = 3.75; 95% CI: 1.42-9.87). The area under the curve of RAR for the risk of PAD in patients with diabetes was 0.631 (95% CI: 0.588-0.675). Conclusion A higher RAR was related to increased risk of PAD in patients with diabetes. The findings might offer a reference for the management of PAD in patients with diabetes.

Abstract
Shexiang Baoxin Pill (SBP) has an excellent therapeutic effect on atherosclerosis (AS), but the combinational mechanisms of SBP against AS remain unclear. This study aimed to investigate the combinational mechanisms of SBP against AS by comprehensive network pharmacology and fecal metabolomic analysis. Bufonis venenum, one of the adjuvant medicines in SBP, is an animal medicine with a narrow therapeutic window. Considering animal protection, we evaluated the anti-AS effect of SBP without BV (SBP-BV) using ApoE-/- mouse models, culture cells, and metabolomic methods. Our data suggested that SBP showed remarkable anti-atherosclerotic effects through multiple targets and multiple pathways, while each component in SBP played different roles in their synergistic effect. Notably, SBP-BV showed comparable effects with SBP in the treatment of AS. Both SBP and SBP-BV could reduce cholesterol uptake in RAW264.7 cells and prevent the occurrence and development of AS in WD-induced ApoE-/- mice by attenuating the atherosclerotic plaque area, and reducing inflammatory cytokines and cholesterol levels in vivo. Our finding might provide new insights into the research and development of new anti-atherosclerosis drugs.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Peripheral arterial disease (PAD) causes significant morbidity today. Atherosclerosis is evident in the pathophysiological process in most patients, so PAD has similar risk factors as coronary artery disease. Platelet-Hemoglobin ratio (PHR) has been proven to predict mortality in atherosclerotic heart disease. We aimed to determine the relationship between PHR and below-knee amputation. METHODS The study is a single-center retrospective study. Platelet count/hemoglobin amount formula was used for PHR. Only PAD patients with below-knee critical extremity ischemia and unsuitable for revascularization were included in the study. RESULTS 235 patients were included in the study retrospectively. The mean age was 65.7 ± 9.9 years and 175(74.5%) of them were male. In the amputated group, white blood cell, neutrophil, platelet, creatinine, glucose, and PHR were higher (p = .031, p = .045, p = .011, p = .048 p = .018, p = .004, respectively). Only hemoglobin values were lower (p = .003). Multivariable regression analysis showed; age, albumin and PHR were determined as independent risk factors for amputation (Age; OR (95%CI): (1.094(1.040-1.152), p = .001) (Albumin; OR (95% CI): 1.950(1.623-1.799), p = .001) (PHR; OR (95% CI): 1.872(1.246-2.812), p = .003). Receiver operating characteristics analysis performed to determine the optimal cut-off value of PHR for amputation, the optimal value was found 2.08 (65.8% sensitivity, 67.5% specificity, p < .001). CONCLUSIONS PHR was a good predictor for BKA. Using the PHR, it may be possible to identify high-risk patients for amputation.

Abstract
PURPOSE To investigate the incidence and risk factors of preoperative DVT in elderly patients with intertrochanteric fracture of the femur and determine the optimal preoperative time. METHODS Electronic medical records of 358 patients over 60 years of age with intertrochanteric fractures from May 1, 2016, to May 1, 2019, were retrospectively analyzed. The preoperative group was divided into DVT and non-DVT. Univariate analysis was used for preliminary comparison, and multivariate logistic regression analysis was used to identify independent risk factors associated with DVT development. ROC curve was drawn to analyze the specificity and sensitivity of risk factors for DVT diagnosis. The diagnostic value of the model was analyzed by the ROC curve of multivariable combined diagnosis. RESULTS A total of 358 patients who met the criteria were enrolled. The total prevalence of DVT before surgery was 8.38%. Multivariate logistic regression analysis showed that smoking status, preoperative time, albumin (ALB), D-dimer level, diabetes mellitus, and hypertension were independent risk factors for preoperative DVT. Preoperative time has the best sensitivity and specificity for diagnosing the occurrence of preoperative DVT. The ROC curve analysis model of multivariable combined diagnosis has a better diagnostic value. CONCLUSIONS In this study, elderly patients with intertrochanteric femur fracture had a higher incidence of deep vein thrombosis before surgery. Early identification of DVT-related risk factors may contribute to individualized risk assessment and preventing adverse outcomes in patients with intertrochanteric fractures.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Previous studies that explored the relationship of serum albumin with diabetic peripheral neuropathy (DPN) have indicated inconsistent results. Thus, the present study aimed to evaluated the association between serum albumin and DPN, defined as vibration perception threshold (VPT) values ≥ 25 V and/or inability to feel the monofilament, in Chinese patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM). METHODS 1465 T2DM patients aged ≥ 16 years, who completed the measurement of serum albumin and DPN screening between 2012 and 2015, were included in the cross-sectional study. Correlation and multivariate logistic regression analysis models were used to evaluate the possible relationship between serum albumin and DPN. RESULTS Patients with higher quartiles of serum albumin had significantly lower VPT values and prevalence of DPN compared with those with lower quartiles (P for trend < 0.01), and there was an inverse relationship between serum albumin and VPT values and prevalence of DPN (all P < 0.01). Multivariate logistic regression analysis demonstrated that the risk of DPN was progressively decreased across serum albumin quartiles (P for trend < 0.01), and participants in the highest quartile of serum albumin were at a significantly decreased risk of DPN compared to those in the lowest quartile (odds rate: 0.311, 95% confidence intervals 0.134-0.724, P < 0.01). ROC analysis revealed that the optimal cutoff point of serum albumin for the prevalence of DPN was 39.95 g/L in patients with T2DM, with a sensitivity of 65.88% and a specificity of 66.7%. CONCLUSIONS Decreased levels of serum albumin might be correlated with increased risk of DPN in Chinese patients with T2DM. Future longitudinal studies with large samples are warranted to confirm our findings, and elucidate putative mechanisms for the association.
