Eye (Lond) 2023; 37:1123-1129. [PMID: 35487961 PMCID: PMC10102014 DOI: 10.1038/s41433-022-02080-9] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/01/2021] [Revised: 04/20/2022] [Accepted: 04/21/2022] [Indexed: 11/09/2022] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND/OBJECTIVE To characterize incidence rates and identify risk factors for admission and mortality in patients with endogenous endophthalmitis (EE) in the United States (US). SUBJECTS/METHODS Patients with EE were identified using the Nationwide Emergency Department (NEDS) Database from 2006 to 2017 in this cross-sectional study. Subjects were required to have diagnoses of both endophthalmitis and septicaemia using contemporary International Classification of Diseases diagnosis codes. Incidence rates, mortality rates and demographics were evaluated. Risk factors for admission and mortality were identified using weighted logistic regression analysis. RESULTS A total of 6400 patients with EE were identified. Incidence increased from 0.10 (95% confidence interval [CI]: 0.07-0.12) per 100,000 in the US population in 2006 to 0.25 (95% CI: 0.21-0.30) in 2017 (p < 0.05). Most were female (55.4%), insured with Medicare (53.5%), were in the first income quartile earnings (29.3%) [bottom 25% income bracket], lived in the South (40.5%), and presented to metropolitan teaching hospitals (66.6%). Mortality increased from 8.6% (95% CI: 3.8-18.3%) in 2006 to 13.8% (95% CI: 9.7-19.2%) in 2017 (p = 0.94). Factors predicting admission included older age (odds ratio [OR] 32.59; [95% CI 2.95-359.78]) and intravenous drug use (OR 14.90 [95% CI: 1.67-133.16]). Factors associated with increased mortality included: human immunodeficiency virus infection/immune deficiencies (OR 2.58 [95% CI: 1.26-5.28]), heart failure (OR 2.12 [95% CI: 1.47-3.05]), and hepatic infections/cirrhosis (OR 1.89 [95% CI: 1.28-2.79]). Pneumonia and renal/urinary tract infections (UTI) were associated with both increased hospital admission [(pneumonia OR 9.64 (95% CI: 1.25-74.35, p = 0.030), renal/UTI OR 4.09 (95% CI: 1.77-9.48)] and mortality [(pneumonia OR 1.64 (95% CI: 1.17-2.29, p = 0.030), renal/UTI OR 1.87 (95% CI: 1.18-2.97)]. Patients with diabetes mellitus (DM) had decreased odds ratio for mortality (OR 0.49 [95% CI: 0.33-0.73]). CONCLUSION EE has increased in incidence throughout US. The two systemic factors that conferred both an increase in mortality and admission were pneumonia, and renal/UTI. Additional exploration of the potential protective association of DM with decreased mortality in this context is needed.

Implications of genetic variations, differential gene expression, and allele-specific expression on metformin response in drug-naïve type 2 diabetes. J Endocrinol Invest 2022; 46:1205-1218. [PMID: 36528847 DOI: 10.1007/s40618-022-01989-y] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/06/2022] [Accepted: 12/08/2022] [Indexed: 12/23/2022]
Abstract
PURPOSE Metformin is widely used to treat type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) individuals. Clinically, inter-individual variability of metformin response is of significant concern and is under interrogation. In this study, a targeted exome and whole transcriptome analysis were performed to identify predictive biomarkers of metformin response in drug-naïve T2DM individuals. METHODS The study followed a prospective study design. Drug-naïve T2DM individuals (n = 192) and controls (n = 223) were enrolled. T2DM individuals were administered with metformin monotherapy and defined as responders and non-responders based on their glycated haemoglobin change over three months. 146 T2DM individuals were used for the final analysis and remaining samples were lost during the follow-up. Target exome sequencing and RNA-seq was performed to analyze genetic and transcriptome profile. The selected SNPs were validated by genotyping and allele specific gene expression using the TaqMan assay. The gene prioritization, enrichment analysis, drug-gene interactions, disease-gene association, and correlation analysis were performed using various tools and databases. RESULTS rs1050152 and rs272893 in SLC22A4 were associated with improved response to metformin. The copy number loss was observed in PPARGC1A in the non-responders. The expression analysis highlighted potential differentially expressed targets for predicting metformin response (n = 35) and T2DM (n = 14). The expression of GDF15, TWISTNB, and RPL36A genes showed a maximum correlation with the change in HbA1c levels. The disease-gene association analysis highlighted MAGI2 rs113805659 to be linked with T2DM. CONCLUSION The results provide evidence for the genetic variations, perturbed transcriptome, allele-specific gene expression, and pathways associated with metformin drug response in T2DM.

Association between glucose-to-lymphocyte ratio and in-hospital mortality in intensive care patients with sepsis: A retrospective observational study based on Medical Information Mart for Intensive Care IV. Front Med (Lausanne) 2022; 9:922280. [PMID: 36091699 PMCID: PMC9448903 DOI: 10.3389/fmed.2022.922280] [Citation(s) in RCA: 6] [Impact Index Per Article: 3.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/17/2022] [Accepted: 08/01/2022] [Indexed: 12/15/2022] Open
Abstract
Background This study aimed to evaluate the association between the glucose-to-lymphocyte ratio (GLR) and in-hospital mortality in intensive care unit (ICUs) patients with sepsis. Methods This is a retrospective cohort study. Patients with sepsis from the Medical Information Mart for Intensive Care-IV (MIMIC-IV) database had their baseline data and in-hospital prognosis retrieved. Multivariable Cox regression analyses were applied to calculate adjusted hazard ratios (HR) with 95% confidence intervals (CI). Survival curves were plotted, and subgroup analyses were stratified by relevant covariates. To address the non-linearity relationship, curve fitting and a threshold effect analysis were performed. Results Of the 23,901 patients, 10,118 patients with sepsis were included. The overall in-hospital mortality rate was 17.1% (1,726/10,118). Adjusted for confounding factors in the multivariable Cox regression analysis models, when GLR was used as a categorical variable, patients in the highest GLR quartile had increased in-hospital mortality compared to patients in the lowest GLR quartile (HR = 1.26, 95% CI: 1.15–1.38). When GLR was used as a continuous variable, each unit increase in GLR was associated with a 2% increase in the prevalence of in-hospital mortality (adjusted HR = 1.02, 95% CI: 1.01–1.03, p = 0.001). Stratified analyses indicated that the correlation between the GLR and in-hospital mortality was stable. The non-linear relationship between GLR and in-hospital mortality was explored in a dose-dependent manner. In-hospital mortality increased by 67% (aHR = 1.67, 95% CI: 1.45–1.92) for every unit GLR increase. When GLR was beyond 1.68, in-hospital mortality did not significantly change (aHR: 1.04, 95% CI: 0.92–1.18). Conclusion There is a non-linear relationship between GLR and in-hospital mortality in intensive care patients with sepsis. A higher GLR in ICU patients is associated with in-hospital mortality in the United States. However, further research is needed to confirm the findings.

Abstract
Type 2 diabetes (T2D) is a common chronic disease whose etiology is known to have a strong genetic component. Standard genetic approaches, although allowing for the detection of a number of gene variants associated with the disease as well as differentially expressed genes, cannot fully explain the hereditary factor in T2D. The explosive growth in the genomic sequencing technologies over the last decades provided an exceptional impetus for transcriptomic studies and new approaches to gene expression measurement, such as RNA-sequencing (RNA-seq) and single-cell technologies. The transcriptomic analysis has the potential to find new biomarkers to identify risk groups for developing T2D and its microvascular and macrovascular complications, which will significantly affect the strategies for early diagnosis, treatment, and preventing the development of complications. In this article, we focused on transcriptomic studies conducted using expression arrays, RNA-seq, and single-cell sequencing to highlight recent findings related to T2D and challenges associated with transcriptome experiments.

Jiang L, Cheng M. Impact of diabetes mellitus on outcomes of patients with sepsis: an updated systematic review and meta-analysis. Diabetol Metab Syndr 2022; 14:39. [PMID: 35248158 PMCID: PMC8898404 DOI: 10.1186/s13098-022-00803-2] [Citation(s) in RCA: 14] [Impact Index Per Article: 7.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/21/2021] [Accepted: 02/07/2022] [Indexed: 12/29/2022] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND The effect of concurrent diabetes on the outcome of sepsis is not conclusively known. A meta-analysis published in 2017 indicated that diabetes did not influence the mortality of patients with sepsis but increased the risk of acute renal injury. In view of publication of several new studies in recent years, there is a need for updated evidence. METHODS A systematic search was conducted using the PubMed, Scopus, Embase, and Google Scholar databases. Studies that were done in patients with sepsis, were observational in design- either cohort or case-control or analysed retrospective data were considered for inclusion. Statistical analysis was performed using STATA software. RESULTS A total of 21 studies were included. The risk of in-hospital mortality (RR 0.98, 95% CI 0.93, 1.04) and mortality at latest follow up i.e., within 90 days of discharge (RR 0.94, 95% CI 0.86, 1.04) among diabetic and non-diabetic subjects was statistically similar. There was an increased risk of in-hospital mortality among those with high blood glucose level at admission (RR 1.45, 95% CI 1.01, 2.09). Among those who were diabetic, the risk of acute renal failure (RR 1.54, 95% CI 1.34, 1.78) was higher than non-diabetics. The risk of respiratory failure, adverse cardiac events, need for additional hospitalization post-discharge and length of hospital stay was similar among diabetics and non-diabetics. CONCLUSIONS Diabetes is not associated with poor survival outcomes in patients with sepsis but is associated with increased risk of acute renal failure. High blood glucose levels, irrespective of the diabetes status, are associated with increased risk of in-hospital mortality. Findings underscore the need for better evaluation of renal function in diabetic patients with concurrent sepsis.

Abstract
BACKGROUND This systematic review summarizes results of studies that evaluated the expression of microRNAs (miRs) in prediabetes or type 2 diabetes (T2D). METHODS The information was obtained from PubMed, EMBL-EBI, Wanfang, Trip Database, Lilacs, CINAHL, Human microRNA Disease Database (HMDD) v3.0, and Google. A qualitative synthesis of the results was performed and miRs frequency was graphically represented. From 1893 identified studies, only 55 fulfilled the inclusion criteria. These 55 studies analyzed miRs in T2D, and of them, 13 also described data of prediabetes. RESULTS In diabetics, 122 miRs were reported and 35 miRs for prediabetics. However, we identified that five miRs (-122-5p, 144-3p, 210, 375, and -126b) were reported more often in diabetics and four (144-3p, -192, 29a, and -30d) in prediabetics. CONCLUSIONS Circulating miRs could be used as biomarkers of T2D. However, it is necessary to validate these microRNAs in prospective and multicenter studies with different population subgroups, considering age, gender, and risk factors.

Abstract
During lactation, an improper glucose supply often threatens mammary gland (MG) health. However, information is limited on the metabolic trajectories and molecules that regulate lactating MGs with an excessive glucose supply. Based on the network analysis of transcriptome and microRNAs, we found that the oversupply of glucose-induced severe glucose metabolic disorders in MGs of lactating goats, shifting lactose synthesis to acute fermentative glycolysis which caused increased flux of glucose metabolism into lactate. Moreover, NF-κB2 played a key role in regulating glycolysis, exhibiting a metabolic shift when MGs had an excessive supply of glucose. In primary mammary epithelial cells, fermentative glycolysis, and intracellular concentration of reactive oxygen species (ROS) were reduced by ganoderic acid A through blocking NF-κB2, while activation of NF-κB2 with phorbol myristate acetate (PMA) upregulated fermentative glycolysis and increased cellular ROS accumulation under excessive glucose. Thus, we established an NF-κB2-targeting method to reform the metabolic shift toward glycolysis caused by glucose oversupply by integrating NF-κB2 blockade and intracellular ROS scavenging.

Abstract
In order to gain insight into the genetic architecture of economically important traits in pigs and to derive suitable genetic markers to improve these traits in breeding programs, many studies have been conducted to map quantitative trait loci. Shortcomings of these studies were low mapping resolution, large confidence intervals for quantitative trait loci-positions and large linkage disequilibrium blocks. Here, we overcome these shortcomings by pooling four large F2 designs to produce smaller linkage disequilibrium blocks and by resequencing the founder generation at high coverage and the F1 generation at low coverage for subsequent imputation of the F2 generation to whole genome sequencing marker density. This lead to the discovery of more than 32 million variants, 8 million of which have not been previously reported. The pooling of the four F2 designs enabled us to perform a joint genome-wide association study, which lead to the identification of numerous significantly associated variant clusters on chromosomes 1, 2, 4, 7, 17 and 18 for the growth and carcass traits average daily gain, back fat thickness, meat fat ratio, and carcass length. We could not only confirm previously reported, but also discovered new quantitative trait loci. As a result, several new candidate genes are discussed, among them BMP2 (bone morphogenetic protein 2), which we recently discovered in a related study. Variant effect prediction revealed that 15 high impact variants for the traits back fat thickness, meat fat ratio and carcass length were among the statistically significantly associated variants.

Abstract
Background Diabetes mellitus (DM) is a critical medical problem that can make people more likely to develop infectious complications, even sepsis. However, the influence of DM on the outcomes of septic patients is still controversial. Thus, we conducted the present meta-analysis to investigate whether DM worsens outcomes of septic patients. Material/Methods We searched studies from PubMed, Embase, and Cochrane Library databases from 1966 to July 1, 2016. The primary outcome we chose was 28-day or 30-day mortality or in-hospital mortality. Results Our meta-analysis of 10 enrolled studies performed between 2000 and 2016 shows that the mortality rate of septic patients with DM was slightly lower than that of non-diabetic patients (risk ratio [RR]=0.97, 95% confidence interval [CI]: 0.96 to 0.98, P<0.00001). On the other hand, septic patients with DM had a shorter hospital stay (weighted mean difference (WMD)=−2.27, 95% CI: −4.11 to −0.44, P=0.01), a higher incidence rate of AKI (RR=1.56, 95% CI: 1.25 to 1.95, P<0.001), and a similar incidence of respiratory dysfunction (RR=0.86, 95% CI: 0.71 to 1.04, P=0.11) compared with those without DM. Conclusions The results from the meta-analysis suggest that DM does not impair the outcome of patients with sepsis, and the incidence of acute kidney injury increases dramatically in septic patients with DM. Due to the limitations of the analysis, more well-designed trials are still necessary.
