Abstract
Objective Visceral fat area (VFA) levels have been found to exhibit a strong association with various conditions such as insulin resistance (IR), inflammation, oxidative stress, metabolic syndrome (MetS), hyperlipidemia, diabetes, and its vascular complications. These complications include hypertension, cardiovascular disease, diabetic retinopathy (DR), albuminuria, and cardiovascular autonomic dysfunction, which is considered one of the main types of diabetic neuropathy. This study aimed to investigate the correlation between visceral fat and peripheral neuropathy in patients with type 2 diabetes (T2DM). Methods A retrospective analysis of clinical data of patients diagnosed with type 2 diabetes admitted to our hospital was conducted. After excluding 28 cases, a total of 488 patients were included, divided into the group with peripheral neuropathy (207 cases) and the control group without peripheral neuropathy (281 cases). The correlation between VFA and the presence of DPN was assessed using correlation and multiple logistic regression analyses. Results In terms of general information, the group with peripheral neuropathy had lower BMI but longer duration of diabetes compared to the control group. Regarding biochemical indicators, VFA were lower in the group with peripheral neuropathy, while FPG and HbA1c levels were higher (all P<0.05). Spearman correlation analysis showed a negative correlation between VFA, and the presence of peripheral neuropathy in patients with type 2 diabetes (P<0.05). Logistic regression analysis indicated that VFA, duration of diabetes, and HbA1c level were influencing factors for the occurrence of peripheral neuropathy in patients with type 2 diabetes (P<0.05). Conclusion This study revealed a correlation between visceral fat and peripheral neuropathy in patients with type 2 diabetes, highlighting the importance of monitoring visceral fat in such patients. In addition to lower levels of VFA, factors such as duration of diabetes and glycated hemoglobin (HbA1c) level were also associated with peripheral neuropathy in patients with T2DM.

Abstract
Background: Cardiovascular diseases (CVD) are the main cause of death in the population with diabetes mellitus. This study purposed to determine clinical laboratory markers that might be correlated with the risk of CVD in individuals with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM). Methods: Using data from the Clinical Center of the University of Debrecen from 2016 to 2020, we assessed cardiovascular risk in 5593 individuals with T2DM over a five-year follow-up period. There were 347 new cases of acute myocardial infarction (AMI) and stroke during the period. Following the stratification of these individuals into two groups according to the diagnosis of these CVDs until 2020, the risk of these CVDs was assessed through the utilization of the Chi-square test and Cox proportional hazards regression. Results: The findings of the Cox proportional hazards regression model showed that the number of HbA1C measurements per year (HR = 0.46, 95% CI 0.31-0.7), decreased levels of estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) (HR = 1.6, 95% CI 1.04-2.47), and elevated triglyceride levels (HR = 1.56, 95% CI 1.06-2.29) were correlated with CVD in patients with T2DM. The area under the curve (AUC) was increased from 0.557 (95% CI 0.531-0.582) to 0.628 (95% CI 0.584-0.671) after the inclusion of the laboratory variables into the model showing improved discrimination for AMI and stroke. Conclusions: These findings indicated that eGFR, triglyceride, and the number of HbA1C per year are correlated with AMI and stroke in patients with T2DM.

Abstract
CONTEXT The urinary albumin to creatinine ratio (UACR) is a widely used indicator of albuminuria and has predictive value for adverse cardiovascular events. OBJECTIVE To evaluate the correlation between the UACR and the risk of developing major adverse cardiovascular events (MACEs) and total mortality in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM). METHODS This post hoc analysis included 10 171 participants from the Action to Control Cardiovascular Risk in Diabetes (ACCORD) study and the ACCORD follow-up study (ACCORDION) with baseline UACR data. The natural logarithm (ln) of each UACR measurement was calculated. Univariate and multivariate Cox proportional hazard regression analyses were conducted to examine the association between the UACR and the risk of MACEs and total mortality. The additional predictive value of UACR was further evaluated. Similar methods were used to analyze the correlation between the UACR and MACEs and total mortality within the normal range. RESULTS During a median follow-up period of 8.83 years, 1808 (17.78%) participants experienced MACEs, and there were 1934 (19.01%) total deaths. After adjusting for traditional cardiovascular risk factors, the multivariate analysis revealed a significant association between the UACR and the risk of MACEs and total mortality. The inclusion of UACR in the conventional risk model enhanced the predictive efficacy for MACEs and total mortality. CONCLUSION An elevated UACR is associated with a higher risk of MACEs and total mortality in patients with T2DM, even when it falls within the normal range. The UACR improves prediction of MACE and total mortality risk in patients with T2DM.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Elevated urinary albumin-to-creatinine ratio (UACR) was associated with increased mortality in general population and diabetic patients. However, whether the association remains similar in the subjects with different status of glucose metabolism was unclear. The optimal level of UACR in predicting mortality also remained unknown. This study aims to investigate the relationship between UACR with all-cause and cardiovascular mortality in population with different status of glucose metabolism and explore the predictive cutoff point of UACR. METHODS Six thousand three hundred and eighty-six community-dwelling individuals aged ≥45 years were enrolled and followed for an average of 5.3 years. Cox proportional hazards model was performed to analysis the association of baseline UACR and all-cause as well as cardiovascular mortality according to the status of glucose metabolism. Receiver operating characteristic curve was plotted to explore the optimal predictive cutoff point of UACR. RESULTS With UACR increasing, both the prevalence of all-cause and cardiovascular death increased. Cox analyses showed baseline UACR independently predicted the risk of all-cause and cardiovascular mortality in the patients with prediabetes mellitus (pre-DM) and diabetes mellitus (DM) but not in subjects with normal glucose tolerance (NGT). When divided by quartiles of UACR, the cumulative survival rate decreased acrossing the quartiles. Compared to the subjects with lowest quartile of UACR, participants with UACR ≥7.40 mg/gCr had a higher risk of all-cause mortality, and participants with UACR ≥16.60 mg/gCr had an increased risk of cardiovascular mortality in all hyperglycemia subjects. The optimal predictive cutoff point of UACR was about 17 mg/gCr. CONCLUSION UACR was an independent predictor of all-cause and cardiovascular mortality in population with pre-DM and DM but not in the subjects with NGT. The optimal predictive cutoff point of UACR is about 17 mg/gCr, which was far below the diagnostic cutoff point of microalbuminuria. Earlier interventions of albuminuria should be initiated from very early stage of hyperglycemia to reduce the burden of death in all patients whose glucose metabolism are impaired.

Abstract
Introduction To investigate the predictors of diabetic kidney disease (DKD) in type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) patients and establish a nomogram model for predicting the risk of DKD. Methods The clinical data of T2DM patients, admitted to the Endocrinology Department of Chengde Central Hospital from October 2019 to September 2020 and divided into a case group or a control group based on whether they had DKD, were collected. The predictive factors of DKD were screened by univariate and multivariate analysis, and a nomogram prediction model was constructed for the risk of DKD in T2DM. Bootstrapping was used for model validation, receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve and GiViTI calibration curve were used for evaluating the discrimination and calibration of prediction model, and decision analysis curve (DCA) was used for evaluating the practicality of model. Results Predictors for DKD are diabetic retinopathy (DR), hypertension, history of gout, smoking history, using insulin, elevation of body mass index (BMI), triglyceride (TG), cystatin C (Cys-C), and reduction of 25 (OH) D. The nomogram prediction model based on the above nine predictors had good representativeness (Bootstrap method: precision: 0.866, Kappa: 0.334), differentiation [the area under curve (AUC) value: 0.868], and accuracy (GiViTI-corrected curved bands, P = 0.836); the DAC curve analysis showed that the prediction model, whose threshold probability was in the range of 0.10 to 0.70, had clinical practical value. Conclusion The risk of DKD in T2DM could be predicted accurately by DR, hypertension, history of gout, smoking history, using insulin, elevation of BMI, TG, Cys-C, and reduction of 25 (OH) D.

Abstract
Normoalbuminuria has recently been associated with increased cardiovascular risk, and vascular aging is proposed as the early manifestation of cardiovascular disease. Here, the authors aimed to examine the association of high-normal albuminuria and vascular aging in a Chinese cohort. From our previously established cohort, 1942 participants with estimated glomerular filtration rate ≥60 mL/min/1.73 m2 or urinary albumin-creatinine ratio (UACR) <30 mg/g were enrolled. Brachial-ankle pulse wave velocity (baPWV) ≥1400 cm/s and/or carotid intima-media thickness (CIMT) ≥0.9 mm were used as indicators of vascular aging. Multivariate regression and receiving operating characteristic curve analysis were performed to examine the relationship between continuous and categorical UACR with vascular aging. We found an average UACR value of 8.08 (5.45-12.52) mg/g in this study. BaPWV and CIMT demonstrated positive correlations with lg-UACR (p < .05). High-normal albuminuria (10-29 mg/g) was significantly associated with the presence of vascular aging after adjusting for multiple cardiovascular confounders (OR = 1.540, 95% CI = 1.203-1.972, p = .001). In addition, a lg-UACR cutoff point of 0.918 lg(mg/g) (equal to UACR of 8.285 mg/g) was significantly associated with the presence of vascular aging and its components for all participants and those without hypertension or diabetes and without medication (p < .05). Briefly, high-normal albuminuria was significantly associated with vascular aging in this sample of Chinese adults. These findings implied the warning of elevated UACR even within normal range in clinical practice and the importance of UACR screening in normoalbuminuria for early detection and prevention of cardiovascular disease in otherwise healthy participants.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The role of albuminuria as a marker of the atherosclerosis burden and a predictor of prognosis in patients with polyvascular disease (PD) has been little studied. AIM To evaluate the prevalence, association with atherosclerosis burden, and prognostic value of albuminuria in relation to cardiovascular and bleeding complications in patients with PD. MATERIALS AND METHODS The data was obtained from the prospective registry REGATA-1 (NCT04347200). Seventy four patients (75.7% males, median age 67 [61-69] years) with PD (CAD and peripheral arterial disease) were enrolled. All patients received aspirin and rivaroxaban 2.5 mg. The albumin-creatinine ratio in a single morning urine sample, estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR), and von Willebrand factor levels were determined. RESULTS Mild albuminuria (10-29 mg/g) was detected in 45.9% of patients, moderate and severe (≥30 mg/g) - in 29.7%; eGFR<60 ml/min - in 21.7%, chronic kidney disease (CKD) according to the full KDIGO criteria (eGFR and/or albuminuria ≥30 mg/g) - twice as often (39.2%). The frequency of nephroprotective therapy prescription was insufficient. The level of albuminuria did not correlate with von Willebrand factor (endothelial dysfunction marker), but was associated with affecting of 4-5 vascular beds (ROC AUC 0.775; p=0.011). During the follow-up (12 [8-18] months) 3 patients developed MACE, 11 - BARC 2-3 bleedings. Neither albuminuria nor eGFR were predictors of MACE, bleeding, or net clinical benefit. CKD (KDIGO) was also not associated with bleedings. CKD (KDIGO) was independent predictor of MACE (in significant multiple regression model beta - coefficient for CKD was 0.097; p=0.042), however, the small number of end points allows us to speak only of a hypothesis-generating trend. The implementation of CKD (KDIGO) has increased the predictive value of the REACH score. CONCLUSION Albuminuria is highly prevalent in patients with PD. It is a marker of atherosclerosis burden. CKD, diagnosed taking into account the level of albuminuria, can be used in a comprehensive assessment of cardiovascular risk in this category of patients.

Abstract
Objective Impaired sensitivity to thyroid hormones has been reported as a common metabolic disorder, and it remains poorly understood whether it interplays with uric acid (UA) metabolism as an established risk factor for cardiovascular diseases (CVDs). We aimed to investigate the relationship between thyroid hormone sensitivity and elevated UA in a Chinese euthyroid population. Methods A total of 15,955 euthyroid subjects were included in this study. Thyroid hormone sensitivity indices were calculated, including the thyroid feedback quantile-based index (TFQI), the Chinese-referenced parametric TFQI (PTFQI), the TSH index (TSHI), and the thyrotropin thyroxine resistance index (TT4RI), and the FT3/FT4 ratio. Linear and logistic regression analyses were performed to detect the association between thyroid hormone sensitivity and elevated UA. Results Subjects with reduced sensitivity to thyroid hormones had increased UA levels in both genders (p for trend < 0.001). Logistic and linear regression analyses showed that higher TFQI, PTFQI, TSHI, and TT4RI were positively associated with elevated UA levels, but negatively associated with the FT3/FT4 ratio. The odds ratio (OR) of the highest versus the first quartile of TFQI was 1.20 (1.05, 1.38) in men and 1.80 (1.46, 2.23) in women (p < 0.001). PTHQI, TSHI, and TT4RI obtained similar results in both genders. Conversely, the highest quartile of the FT3/FT4 ratio was negatively correlated with elevated UA levels [men: OR 0.78 (0.68,0.89), women: OR 0.66 (0.53,0.81)]. Conclusion Impaired sensitivity to thyroid hormones was associated with elevated UA levels in euthyroid subjects. Our findings shed light on the role of thyroid hormone sensitivity in UA metabolism.
