Zhang P, Tan Z, Li C, Han Z, Zhou J, Yin Y. The correlation between serum total bile acid and adverse perinatal outcomes in pregnant women with intrahepatic cholestasis of pregnancy (ICP) and non-ICP hypercholanemia of pregnancy. Ann Med 2024; 56:2331059. [PMID: 38515230 PMCID: PMC10962286 DOI: 10.1080/07853890.2024.2331059] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/30/2023] [Accepted: 02/23/2024] [Indexed: 03/23/2024] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND The association between excessive serum total bile acid (TBA) and adverse perinatal outcomes in individuals with non-intrahepatic cholestasis of pregnancy (non-ICP) hypercholanemia has not been determined, and it is unclear if this link is similar to that observed in patients with ICP. OBJECTIVE To examine the adverse perinatal outcomes in two specific subcategories: those with ICP and those with non-ICP, including individuals with liver disease and asymptomatic hypercholanemia of pregnancy (AHP), at different levels of TBA. Investigate the correlation between TBA levels and adverse perinatal outcomes of ICP, liver disease, and AHP. METHODS From 2013 to 2021, pregnant women with excessive TBA levels were taken from the electronic medical record database of our hospital and categorized into three groups: ICP (n = 160), liver disease (n = 164), and AHP (n = 650). This was done as part of a retrospective cohort research project. Multivariable regression and subgroup analyses were performed to examine the association between TBA levels and adverse perinatal outcomes in each group. RESULTS The study found no significant differences in adverse perinatal outcomes between the ICP and liver disease groups at different TBA levels. However, at moderate TBA levels, both groups had a higher risk of adverse perinatal outcomes than the AHP group (p < 0.017). Among liver disease cases with TBA ≥ 100µmol/L, three cases of perinatal deaths (6.67%) associated with moderate-to-severe acute hepatitis occurred between 27 and 33 weeks of gestation. A 59% higher chance of perinatal death was found for every 10 µmol/L rise in TBA, even after significant variables and confounders were taken into account (adjusted odds ratio (aOR) = 1.59; 95% confidence interval (CI): 1.06-2.40; p = 0.03). CONCLUSIONS If a pregnant woman has moderate-to-severe liver disease and TBA ≥ 100µmol/L, preterm termination of pregnancy (before 34 weeks) may be considered.

[PMID: 39259035 DOI: 10.1080/27697061.2024.2401055] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/01/2024] [Revised: 07/30/2024] [Accepted: 09/01/2024] [Indexed: 09/12/2024]
Abstract
BACKGROUND The relationship between dietary vitamin E intake and mortality rates among rheumatoid arthritis (RA) patients remains a relatively uncharted territory in nutritional epidemiology, underscoring an important gap in research. OBJECTIVES This study is to explore the potential association between dietary vitamin E intake and all-cause mortality in the RA patient population. METHODS This longitudinal cohort study analyzed 2,906 RA patients aged 20 years or older who participated in the National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey from 1999 to 2018. Comprehensive data on mortality, dietary vitamin E intake, and pertinent confounding variables were systematically collected and analyzed using Cox regression and spline curve fitting to analyze the potential association. RESULTS Following the adjustment for confounding factors, a significant inverse relationship was identified between dietary vitamin E intake and the risk of all-cause mortality in patients with RA. The adjusted hazard ratios (HRs) for the second (Q2), third (Q3), and fourth (Q4) quartiles of vitamin E intake were 0.85, 0.60, and 0.68, respectively. Non-linear modeling indicated a threshold effect characterized by a curve that associated dietary vitamin E intake with mortality risk (p = 0.016). An intake threshold of 7.097 mg/day was identified, below which each unit increment in vitamin E intake was associated with a 11.1% decrease in all-cause mortality risk (HR = 0.889). Conversely, for intakes surpassing this threshold, no significant relationship with mortality risk was detected (HR = 1.0038). CONCLUSION The findings of this study indicate a beneficial relationship between elevated dietary vitamin E intake and a reduced risk of all-cause mortality in RA patients. The dose-response relationship exhibits a non-linear pattern, featuring a critical inflection point at an intake of approximately 7.097 mg/day.

Abstract
Sepsis is a severe medical condition characterized by a systemic inflammatory response, often culminating in multiple organ dysfunction and high mortality rates. In recent years, there has been a growing recognition of the pivotal role played by mitochondrial damage in driving the progression of sepsis. Various factors contribute to mitochondrial impairment during sepsis, encompassing mechanisms such as reactive nitrogen/oxygen species generation, mitophagy inhibition, mitochondrial dynamics change, and mitochondrial membrane permeabilization. Damaged mitochondria actively participate in shaping the inflammatory milieu by triggering key signaling pathways, including those mediated by Toll-like receptors, NOD-like receptors, and cyclic GMP-AMP synthase. Consequently, there has been a surge of interest in developing therapeutic strategies targeting mitochondria to mitigate septic pathogenesis. This review aims to delve into the intricate mechanisms underpinning mitochondrial dysfunction during sepsis and its significant impact on immune dysregulation. Moreover, we spotlight promising mitochondria-targeted interventions that have demonstrated therapeutic efficacy in preclinical sepsis models.

Ann Lab Med 2024; 44:401-409. [PMID: 38469636 PMCID: PMC11169773 DOI: 10.3343/alm.2023.0345] [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: 09/03/2023] [Revised: 12/06/2023] [Accepted: 02/13/2024] [Indexed: 03/13/2024] Open
Abstract
Background Millions of patients undergo cardiac surgery each year. The red blood cell distribution width (RDW) could help predict the prognosis of patients who undergo percutaneous coronary intervention or coronary artery bypass surgery. We investigated whether the RDW has robust predictive value for the 30-day mortality among patients in an intensive care unit (ICU) after undergoing cardiac surgery. Methods Using the Medical Information Mart for Intensive Care-IV Database, we retrieved data for 11,634 patients who underwent cardiac surgery in an ICU. We performed multivariate Cox regression analysis to model the association between the RDW and 30-day mortality and plotted Kaplan-Meier curves. Subgroup analyses were stratified using relevant covariates. Receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curves were used to determine the predictive value of the RDWs. Results The total 30-day mortality rate was 4.2% (485/11,502). The elevated-RDW group had a higher 30-day mortality rate than the normal-RDW group (P&0.001). The robustness of our data analysis was confirmed by performing subgroup analyses. Each unit increase in the RDW was associated with a 17% increase in 30-day mortality when the RDW was used as a continuous variable (adjusted hazard ratio=1.17, 95% confidence interval, 1.10-1.25). Our ROC results showed the predictive value of the RDW. Conclusions An elevated RDW was associated with a higher 30-day mortality in patients after undergoing cardiac surgery in an ICU setting. The RDW can serve as an efficient and accessible method for predicting the mortality of patients in ICUs following cardiac surgery.

Medicine (Baltimore) 2024; 103:e39438. [PMID: 39213238 PMCID: PMC11365617 DOI: 10.1097/md.0000000000039438] [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: 03/23/2024] [Revised: 05/26/2024] [Accepted: 08/02/2024] [Indexed: 09/04/2024] Open
Abstract
Hemodynamic management is crucial in patients with acute pancreatitis. Central venous pressure (CVP) is widely used to assess volume status. Our aim was to determine the optimal time window for obtaining CVP measurements to prevent adverse outcomes in patients. This study utilized data from the Medical Information Mart for Intensive Care (MIMIC) IV database. The primary outcome under investigation was the 28-day mortality, while secondary outcomes included 90-day mortality and 1-year mortality. To categorize the study population, a CVP waiting time of 12 hours was employed as the grouping criterion, followed by the utilization of Cox regression analysis to compare the outcomes between the 2 groups. Our study included a total of 233 patients, among whom 154 cases (66.1%) underwent CVP measurements within 12 hours after admission to the Intensive Care Unit (ICU). Univariate and multivariate Cox regression analyses revealed a significantly increased risk of 28-day mortality in patients from the delayed CVP monitoring group compared to those who underwent early CVP measurements (HR = 2.87; 95% CI: 1.35-6.13; P = .006). Additionally, consistent results were observed for the risks of 90-day mortality (HR = 1.91; 95% CI: 1.09-3.35; P = .023) and 1-year mortality (HR = 1.84; 95% CI: 1.09-3.10; P = .023). In the ICU, an extended waiting time for CVP measurements in patients with acute pancreatitis was associated with an increased risk of 28-day mortality.

Abstract
The relationship of weight change has extended to accelerated ageing, yet little is known about the association between weight change and anti-aging protein α-Klotho. This study included 10,972 subjects from the National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey 2007-2016. Participants were measured body weight and height at baseline and recalled weight at young adulthood and middle adulthood. α-Klotho concentrations were quantified. Generalized linear regression models were used to assess the association between weight change and α-Klotho. Across adulthood, maximal overweight, non-obese to obese, and stable obesity were consistently associated with lower serum Klotho levels. Compared with participants who remained at normal weight, from middle to late adulthood, participants experiencing maximal overweight, moving from the non-obese to obese, and maintaining obesity had 27.97 (95% CI: - 46.57 to - 9.36), 39.16 (95% CI: - 61.15 to - 17.18), and 34.55 (95% CI: - 55.73 to - 13.37) pg/ml lower α-Klotho, respectively; similarly, from young to late adulthood, those had 29.21 (95% CI: - 47.00 to - 11.42) , 34.14 (95% CI: - 52.88 to - 15.40), and 36.61 (95% CI: - 65.01 to - 8.21) lower, respectively. Interestingly, from middle to late adulthood, the absolute weight change values of 590 participants who changed from obese to non-obese were negatively associated with serum α-Klotho. Each 1 kg of weight loss during the process of changing from obese to non-obese brought about a relative increase in α-Klotho levels of 3.03 pg/ml. The findings suggest the potential role of weight management across adulthood for aging.

Abstract
This study aimed to assess the association between composite indices of femoral neck strength and the odds of hip fracture in Chinese adults.After adjusting for confounders, higher values of CSI and ISI were associated with a lower risk of fracture. They may provide useful information for improving hip fracture risk assessment. PURPOSE With the increased incidence of hip fractures worldwide, numerous studies have reported that composite indices of femoral neck strength can improve hip fracture risk assessment. This study aimed to assess the association between composite indices of femoral neck strength and the odds of hip fracture in Chinese adults. METHODS This retrospective cross-sectional study conducted at Changzhou Second People's Hospital included 937 Chinese adults (248 with hip fractures). After overnight fasting for ≥ 8 h, blood samples were collected from all participants within 24 h of admission. Composite indices of femoral neck strength were derived by combining bone mineral density, weight, and height with femoral axis length and width, which were measured by dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry. RESULTS In total, 937 participants (293 men and 644 women) were enrolled. The mean age was 68.3 years (SD 10.5). After adjusting for confounders, higher values of CSI and ISI were associated with a lower odd of hip fracture. Increase in CSI (per 1 g/m·kg) was associated with a 46% decrease in the odd of hip fracture (OR = 0.54; 95% CI, 0.39-0.74), and increase in ISI (per 0.1 g/m·kg) was associated with an 82% decrease (OR, 0.18; 95% CI, 0.11-0.30). Effect sizes of CSI and ISI on the odds of hip fracture remained robust and reliable in subgroup analyses. CONCLUSIONS Increased CSI and ISI were associated with a lower odd of hip fracture, especially in women, suggesting that composite indices of femoral neck strength may provide useful information for improving hip fracture risk assessment.

[PMID: 39170072 PMCID: PMC11335637 DOI: 10.3389/fneur.2024.1331626] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/01/2023] [Accepted: 07/29/2024] [Indexed: 08/23/2024] Open
Abstract
Objective This research aimed to investigate the association between the blood urea nitrogen-to-creatinine (BUN/Cr) ratio and the rate of in-hospital mortality in patients with acute ischemic stroke (AIS) and atrial fibrillation (AF), who are also receiving care in intensive care unit (ICU). Methods A retrospective study was conducted using the MIMIC-IV database. We collected data on BUN/Cr levels at admission for patients with AIS and concurrent AF. To assess the association between BUN/Cr and in-hospital mortality rate, statistical analysis was conducted employing multivariable logistic regression models and restricted cubic spline models. These models were utilized to investigate the potential relationship and provide insights into the impact of BUN/Cr on the likelihood of in-hospital mortality. Interaction and subgroup analyses were performed to evaluate the consistency of the correlation. Results There were a total of 856 patients (age ≥ 18 years) with a median age of 78.0 years, of which 466 (54.4%) were female. Out of 856 patients, 182 (21.26%) died in the hospital. Upon controlling for confounding factors, the multivariable logistic regression analysis elucidated that patients falling within the third trisection (Q3 > 22.41 mg/dL) exhibited a noticeably increased susceptibility to in-hospital mortality when contrasted with their counterparts positioned in the second trisection (Q2: 17.2-22.41 mg/dL) (OR = 2.02, 95% CI: 1.26-3.26, p = 0.004). A non-linear J-shaped relationship was observed between BUN/Cr at ICU admission and in-hospital mortality rate (p = 0.027), with a turning point at 19.63 mg/dL. In the threshold analysis, there was a 4% rise in in-hospital mortality for each 1 mg/dL increase in BUN/Cr (OR: 1.04, 95% CI: 1.01-1.06, p = 0.012). Conclusion In patients with AIS complicated by AF, BUN/Cr at admission shows a J-shaped correlation with in-hospital mortality rate. When BUN/Cr exceeds 19.63 mg/dL, the in-hospital mortality rate increases.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES Intracranial vessel wall enhancement (VWE) on high-resolution magnetic resonance imaging (HRMRI) is associated with the progression and poor prognosis of moyamoya disease (MMD). This study assessed potential risk factors for VWE in MMD. METHODS We evaluated MMD patients using HRMRI and traditional angiography examinations. The participants were divided into VWE and non-VWE groups based on HRMRI. Logistic regression was performed to compare the risk factors for VWE in MMD. The incidence of cerebrovascular events of the different subgroups according to risk factors was compared using Kaplan-Meier survival and Cox regression. RESULTS We included 283 MMD patients, 84 of whom had VWE on HRMRI. The VWE group had higher modified Rankin Scale scores at admission (p = 0.014) and a higher incidence of ischaemia and haemorrhage (p = 0.002) than did the non-VWE group. Risk factors for VWE included the ring finger protein 213 (RNF213) p.R4810K variant (odds ratio [OR] 2.01, 95% confidence interval [CI] 1.08-3.76, p = 0.028), hyperhomocysteinaemia (HHcy) (OR 5.08, 95% CI 2.34-11.05, p < 0.001), and smoking history (OR 3.49, 95% CI 1.08-11.31, p = 0.037). During the follow-up of 63.9 ± 13.2 months (median 65 months), 18 recurrent stroke events occurred. Cox regression showed that VWE and the RNF213 p.R4810K variant were risk factors for stroke. CONCLUSION The RNF213 p.R4810K variant is strongly associated with VWE and poor prognosis in MMD. HHcy and smoking are independent risk factors for VWE. CLINICAL RELEVANCE STATEMENT Vessel wall enhancement in moyamoya disease is closely associated with poor prognosis, especially related to the ring finger protein 213 p.R4810K variant, hyperhomocysteinaemia, and smoking, providing crucial risk assessment information for the clinic. KEY POINTS • The baseline presence of vessel wall enhancement is significantly associated with poor prognosis in moyamoya disease. • The ring finger protein 213 p.R4810K variant is strongly associated with vessel wall enhancement and poor prognosis in moyamoya disease. • Hyperhomocysteinaemia and smoking are independent risk factors for vessel wall enhancement in moyamoya disease.

Abstract
The association between composite dietary antioxidant index (CDAI) and asthma remains unclear. Our study aimed to investigate the association of CDAI with asthma in children aged 3-18 years in the United States. Cross-sectional analyses were carried out on 18,118 children aged 3-18 years old. Data was obtained from the National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (NHANES) conducted between 2003 and 2020. The Composite Dietary Antioxidant Index (CDAI) was measured by assessing the consumption of six dietary antioxidants (vitamin A, vitamin C, vitamin E, zinc, selenium and carotenoids). The association between CDAI and asthma was explored using multivariate weighted logistic regression, subgroup analyses, and sensitivity analyses. Among the 18,118 participants, 2045 (11.3%) reported a diagnosis of asthma by a healthcare provider. In both the crude and adjusted models, the odds ratios (ORs) for asthma with CDAI were not significant. Specifically, in the fully adjusted model, the OR for T2 was 0.98 (95% CI 0.83, 1.17) and the OR for T3 was 1.00 (95% CI 0.76, 1.31). Subgroup analyses by sex, age and BMI category also showed no significant associations. Sensitivity analyses, including weighted logistic multivariate analyses adjusting for family history of asthma, confirmed the absence of a significant association between CDAI and asthma. Our study showed no significant association between CDAI and asthma in children and adolescents.

Abstract
Sepsis-induced multiple organ dysfunction arises from the highly complex pathophysiology encompassing the interplay of inflammation, oxidative stress, endothelial dysfunction, mitochondrial damage, cellular energy failure, and dysbiosis. Over the past decades, numerous studies have been dedicated to elucidating the underlying molecular mechanisms of sepsis in order to develop effective treatments. Current research underscores liver and cardiac dysfunction, along with acute lung and kidney injuries, as predominant causes of mortality in sepsis patients. This understanding of sepsis-induced organ failure unveils potential therapeutic targets for sepsis treatment. Various novel therapeutics, including melatonin, metformin, palmitoylethanolamide (PEA), certain herbal extracts, and gut microbiota modulators, have demonstrated efficacy in different sepsis models. In recent years, the research focus has shifted from anti-inflammatory and antioxidative agents to exploring the modulation of energy metabolism and gut microbiota in sepsis. These approaches have shown a significant impact in preventing multiple organ damage and mortality in various animal sepsis models but require further clinical investigation. The accumulation of this knowledge enriches our understanding of sepsis and is anticipated to facilitate the development of effective therapeutic strategies in the future.

Abstract
Background The association between dietary zinc intake and epilepsy remains unclear. This study aimed to investigate the relationship between zinc intake from the diet and epilepsy, employing Mendelian randomization (MR) to explore potential causal links between zinc and epilepsy. Methods The cross-sectional study utilized data from the National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (NHANES) conducted between 2013 and 2018. Among the 4,434 participants included, 1.5% (67/4,434) reported having epilepsy. Restricted cubic spline models and logistic regression models were employed to examine the relationships between dietary zinc intakes and epilepsy. Subsequently, a 2-sample Mendelian randomization (MR) analysis was conducted using the inverse variance weighted (IVW) approach as the primary analysis. Results In the restricted cubic spline (RCS) analysis, the relationship between dietary zinc consumption and epilepsy displayed an L-shaped curve (nonlinear, p = 0.049). After multivariate adjustments, the adjusted odds ratios for epilepsy in T2 (5.0-11.0 mg/day) and T3 (≥11.0 mg/day) were 0.49 (95% confidence interval [CI]: 0.26-0.92, p = 0.026) and 0.60 (95% CI: 0.31-1.17, p = 0.132), respectively, compared to the lowest dietary zinc consumption tertile (T1, ≤5.0 mg/day). The IVW method indicated that genetically predicted zinc intake per standard-deviation increase was inversely associated with three types of epilepsy, including all types of epilepsy (OR = 1.06, 95% CI: 1.02-1.11, p = 0.008), generalized epilepsy (OR = 1.13, 95% CI: 1.01-1.25, p = 0.030), and focal epilepsy (documented hippocampal sclerosis) (OR = 1.01, 95% CI: 1.00-1.02, p = 0.025). Conclusion Our findings suggest that a daily zinc intake ranging from 5.0 to 11.0 mg is associated with the lowest risk of epilepsy. Furthermore, Mendelian randomization (MR) studies provide additional support for the existence of a causal relationship between zinc and epilepsy.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Vitamin D supplementation has shown promise in averting asthma. However, the association between 25(OH)D levels and asthma prevention in various demographic groups remains inconclusive. Here, we explore this relationship in the context of overweight and obese individuals in the United States. METHODS We scrutinized cross-sectional data derived from the National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey conducted between 2007 and 2018. This dataset encompasses comprehensive information about asthma patients with a body mass index greater than 25 kg/m2, in addition to data regarding 25(OH)D concentration and other pertinent variables. Among the 3889 participants, 16.2% (631/3889) reported a history of asthma, constituting 1765 (45.4%) males and 2124 (54.6%) females. The median age was 56.0 years, with a standard deviation of 16.0 years. We conducted restricted cubic spline (RCS) regression analysis to assess the correlation between 25(OH)D levels and asthma. RESULTS After adjusting for confounders, compared to individuals with lower 25-hydroxyvitamin D concentration (group1 ≤ 46.6 nmol/L), the adjusted odds ratios (OR) for asthma in group2 (46.7-62 nmol/L), group3 (62.1-78.2 nmol/L), and group4 (≥78.3 nmol/L) were 0.68 (95% CI: 0.49-0.94, p < 0.021), 0.65 (95% CI: 0.47-0.88, p < 0.006), and 0.83 (95% CI: 0.61-1.12, p < 0.22), respectively. Restricted cubic spline (RCS) regression analysis revealed a nonlinear U-shaped curve (p = 0.017) with an inflection point at approximately 84.95 nmol/L. CONCLUSIONS High levels of 25(OH)D are correlated with a diminished prevalence of asthma among overweight and obese individuals in the United States.

Abstract
Background Malnutrition adversely affects prognosis in various medical conditions, but its implications in older adults with Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD) in the ICU are underexplored. The geriatric nutritional risk index (GNRI) is a novel tool for assessing malnutrition risk. This study investigates the association between GNRI and 90-day mortality in this population. Methods We selected older adults with COPD admitted to the ICU from Medical Information Mart for Intensive Care (MIMIC)-IV 2.2 database. A total of 666 patients were categorized into four groups based on their GNRI score: normal nutrition (>98), mild malnutrition (92-98), moderate malnutrition (82-91), and severe malnutrition (≤81) groups. We employed a restricted cubic spline (RCS) analysis to assess the presence of a curved relationship between them and to investigate any potential threshold saturation effect. Results In multivariate Cox regression analyses, compared with individuals had normal nutrition (GNRI in Q4 >98), the adjusted HR values for GNRI in Q3 (92-98), Q2 (82-91), and Q1 (≤81) were 1.81 (95% CI: 1.27-2.58, p=0.001), 1.23 (95% CI: 0.84-1.79, p=0.296), 2.27 (95% CI: 1.57-3.29, p<0.001), respectively. The relationship between GNRI and 90-day mortality demonstrates an L-shaped curve (p=0.016), with an approximate inflection point at 101.5. Conclusion These findings imply that GNRI is a useful prognostic tool in older adults with COPD in the ICU. An L-shaped relationship was observed between GNRI and 90-day mortality in these patients.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES This study explored the association between the Frailty Index (FI) and low back pain (LBP) in middle-aged and older Chinese adults. We hypothesised that a higher FI correlates with increased LBP prevalence. DESIGN Cross-sectional analysis. SETTING The study used data from the China Health and Retirement Longitudinal Study (CHARLS) across various regions of China. PARTICIPANTS The analysis included 6375 participants aged 45 and above with complete LBP and FI data from the CHARLS for 2011, 2013 and 2015. We excluded individuals under 45, those with incomplete LBP data, participants with fewer than 30 health deficit items and those missing covariate data. OUTCOME MEASURES We constructed an FI consisting of 35 health deficits. Logistic multivariable regression examined the relationship between FI and LBP, using threshold analysis to identify inflection points. Sensitivity analyses were performed to ensure the robustness of the findings. RESULTS Of the participants, 27.2% reported LBP. A U-shaped association was observed between FI and LBP, with the highest quartile (Q4, FI ≥0.23) showing more than a twofold increased risk of LBP (OR=2.90, 95% CI: 2.45-3.42, p<0.001). Stratified analysis showed a significant association in participants under 60, particularly in the lowest FI quartile (OR=1.43, 95% CI: 1.14 to 1.79). Sensitivity analysis upheld the robustness of the primary results. CONCLUSIONS The findings suggest a complex relationship between frailty and LBP, highlighting the need for early screening and tailored interventions to manage LBP in this demographic. Further research is necessary to understand the mechanisms of this association and to validate the findings through longitudinal studies.

Abstract
Vitamin B12 plays a role in DNA methylation, influencing the 1-carbon cycle; However, its effect on colorectal cancer (CRC) mortality remains uncertain. This study assessed the relationship between vitamin B12 intake and all-cause and cancer-specific mortality among CRC patients. We analyzed data from the NHANES from 1999 to 2018, using multivariable Cox regression, competing risk model, Kaplan-Meier survival curves, and stratified analysis with interaction effects. The studied involved 4,554 cancer patients (mean age 65.8 years, 47.6% males). Results from multivariate Cox regression indicated that each additional 1 mcg/day of dietary vitamin B12 independently increased the risk of all-cause (HR, 1.07; 95% CI: 1.04-1.09, p < 0.001) and cancer-specific mortality (HR, 1.04; 95% CI, 1.02-1.06; p < 0.001). Kaplan-Meier curves indicated a higher risk of all-cause mortality with increased vitamin B12 intake (Log rank p = 0.01). Subgroup analysis suggested that higher vitamin B12 intake correlated with increased all-cause mortality risk, especially in individuals with higher protein (HR, 1.04; 95% CI, 1.02-1.06; p = 0.019) or carbohydrate intake (HR, 1.03; 95% CI, 1.01-1.05; p = 0.04). Thus, higher vitamin B12 intake correlates with increased all-cause and cancer-specific mortality in CRC patients, particularly those with higher protein or carbohydrate intake.

Abstract
Background The global impact of the COVID-19 pandemic had significantly altered the daily routines of people worldwide. This study aimed to compare how sleeptime and depression among Chinese residents had differed between periods during and outside the epidemic. Furthermore, it delved into the interactive effect of age in this relationship. Method Utilizing data from the China Health and Retirement Longitudinal Study (CHARLS) study in 2015 and the recently released data from 2020, which covered the pandemic period. Depression was assessed using Center for Epidemiologic Studies Depression Scale (CESD-10), considering a score of 10 or higher as indicative of depression. Participants were categorized based on age, specifically those aged 60 years and older. multivariate logistic regression and interaction analyses were employed to assess the interplay of age, supported by subgroup and sensitivity analyses to reinforce our findings. Results The 2020 database comprised 19,331 participants, while the 2015 database had 10,507 participants. Our findings demonstrated a significant correlation between sleeptime and depression in both unadjusted models and models adjusted for all variables in both datasets (p<0.001). Upon stratifying by age and adjusting for relevant factors, we identified an interaction effect among age, sleeptime, and depression (p=0.004 for the interaction in the 2020 database, compared to 0.004 in 2015). The restricted cubic spline analysis in both datasets showcased a nonlinear relationship between sleeptime and depression. Conclusions During both epidemic and non-epidemic periods in China, there existed a correlation between sleep duration and depression, which interacts with age.

Front Immunol 2024; 15:1391573. [PMID: 38799419 PMCID: PMC11116595 DOI: 10.3389/fimmu.2024.1391573] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/26/2024] [Accepted: 04/29/2024] [Indexed: 05/29/2024] Open
Abstract
Background Inflammation has been reported to be related to anemia. As a novel inflammatory marker, Systemic immune-inflammation index (SII) has not been studied with Anemia. The aim of this study was to investigate the possible relationship between SII and anemia. Methods This retrospective cross-sectional survey was conducted using data from the 2005-2018 National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (NHANES) population. In total, 19851 American adults aged ≥18 years were included. SII was calculated as the platelet count×neutrophil count/lymphocyte count. Anemia was defined as hemoglobin (Hgb) levels of < 13 g/dL in males and < 12 g/dL in females. Logistic regression analyses, subgroup analyses and sensitivity analyses were performed to investigate the relationship between SII and anemia. Results Our study included a total of 19851 patients, of which 1501 (7.6%) had anemia. After adjusting for all covariates, the multivariate logistic regression analysis showed that a higher SII (In-transform) level was associated with increased likelihood of anemia (OR=1.51, 95% CI: 1.36-1.68, P<0.001). The association between SII and anemia exhibited a nonlinear manner. The positive correlation between SII and anemia was related to the severity of anemia. Subgroup analysis showed that there was no significant dependence on age, family income, body mass index, hypertension, kidney disease and cancer except gender on this positive association. Furthermore, sensitivity analyses confirmed the robustness of our results. Conclusion Our study demonstrated that SII was positively associated with anemia especially among female participants. And this positive correlation was related to the severity of anemia. Further large-scale prospective studies are still needed to analyze the role of SII in anemia.

Abstract
Background Asthma, characterized by recurrent wheezing, breathlessness, chest tightness, and coughing, is a major health concern among children and adolescents worldwide, currently affecting more than 5 million children. The increasing prevalence of obesity and overweight among the pediatric population has made the issue of childhood respiratory health more complex. Compared with children of healthy weight, the risk of asthma is higher in overweight and obese children. Zinc, a nutrient that regulates the oxidant-antioxidant balance, has been studied for its potential protective effects against asthma in adults and children. However, the results are controversial, with some studies reporting a beneficial effect and others showing no effect. Therefore, our objective was to assess the correlation between zinc intake from diet and asthma occurrence among children and adolescents who are overweight or obese. Methods The National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (NHANES) (2011-2020) provided data on individuals aged ≤20 who were overweight or obese, had asthma, and consumed zinc in their diet. The association between dietary zinc and asthma was evaluated using a variety of statistical methods, including multivariate logistic regression, restricted cubic spline analysis, and subgroup analysis. Results A total of 4597 pediatrics and adolescents were enrolled, with 20.9% (963/4597) suffering from asthma. After adjusting for all covariates in the multivariate logistic regression, compared with the lowest zinc intake group Q1(≤5.68 mg/day), the adjusted OR values for zinc intake and asthma in Q2 (5.69-8.36 mg/day), Q3 (8.37-11.95 mg/day), and Q4 (≥11.96 mg/day) were 0.78 (95% CI: 0.62-0.98, p = 0.03), 0.76 (95% CI: 0.6∼0.98, p = 0.032), 0.71 (95% CI: 0.53∼0.95, p = 0.022), respectively. Stratified analysis showed no interactive role for dietary zinc intake and asthma in overweight or obese children and adolescents. Conclusions Dietary zinc intake is inversely associated with asthma in overweight or obese children and adolescents.

Abstract
Chronic pain, a substantial public health issue, may be influenced by dietary patterns through systemic inflammation. This cross-sectional study explored the association between Dietary Inflammatory Index (DII) and chronic pain among 2581 American adults from NHANES data. The DII, ranging from - 4.98 to 4.69, reflects the inflammatory potential of the diet, with higher scores indicating greater pro-inflammatory capacity. Our findings showed no significant association between the continuous DII score and chronic pain prevalence. However, a nonlinear relationship emerged. When the DII was categorized, a significant association between higher DII scores (DII ≥ 2.5) and chronic pain prevalence was observed. The analysis uncovered a U-shaped pattern, with an inflection point at a DII score of - 0.9, indicating an association between both low and high levels of dietary inflammation are associated with higher pain prevalence. This nuanced interaction between dietary inflammation and chronic pain indicates the possibility of incorporating dietary modification into pain management strategies and underscores the need for further research into the long-term effects of diet on chronic pain.

Front Med (Lausanne) 2024; 11:1369967. [PMID: 38651067 PMCID: PMC11033833 DOI: 10.3389/fmed.2024.1369967] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/13/2024] [Accepted: 03/28/2024] [Indexed: 04/25/2024] Open
Abstract
Introduction Acute pulmonary embolism (APE) is a life-threatening medical condition that is frequently encountered and associated with significant incidence and mortality rates, posing a substantial threat to patients' well-being and quality of life. Sepsis is prominent independent risk factor for the development of APE. Despite recent investigations indicating a reduced APE risk through statin therapy, its impact on patients with sepsis and APE remains unresolved. Methods The Medical Information Mart for Intensive Care (MIMIC)-IV database was utilized to identify patients diagnosed with sepsis and APE, irrespective of statin treatment status, as part of this study. The primary study aim was to assess the risk of APE, which was analyzed using multivariate logistic regression models. Results The study encompassed a total of 16,633 participants, with an average age of 64.8 ± 16.2 years. Multivariate logistic regression revealed that septic patients receiving statin therapy in the intensive care unit (ICU) exhibited a 33% reduction in the risk of developing APE (OR = 0.67, 95% CI: 0.52-0.86, p < 0.001). The findings of further analyses, including stratification based on statin usage, dosage, and propensity score matching, consistently reinforced the hypothesis that administering statins to patients with sepsis effectively mitigates their potential APE risk. Discussion The results of the study provide compelling evidence in favor of administering statins to septic patients as a prophylactic measure against APE, given that statins may reduce the risk of developing APE, and their anti-APE effect appears to be dose-dependent. Nonetheless, future randomized controlled trials are needed to validate these results.

Front Cardiovasc Med 2024; 11:1371606. [PMID: 38572310 PMCID: PMC10987860 DOI: 10.3389/fcvm.2024.1371606] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/16/2024] [Accepted: 03/11/2024] [Indexed: 04/05/2024] Open
Abstract
Background It is recognized that patients' blood glucose fluctuates over time during acute disease episodes, especially during the outbreak of cardiovascular events, regardless of the presence of an abnormal blood glucose profile prior to admission to the hospital. Glucose fluctuations in patients with acute myocardial infarction (AMI) in the intensive care unit (ICU) are currently not adequately monitored and studied. We focused on blood glucose fluctuation values within 24 h of admission to assess their association with 30-day and 1-year mortality. Methods Data of patients with AMI aged 18 years or older from the Critical Care Medical Information Marketplace database III V1.4 were available for analysis in this research. Glucose data were obtained by measurement. A total of 390 of them were treated with PCI. The principal consequence was 30-day and 1-year mortality in patients with AMI. The effect of different glucose fluctuations within 24 h of admission on mortality was predicted by constructing a multivariate Cox regression model with four model adjustments and Kaplan-Meier survival curves. Additionally, we performed curve-fitting analyses to show the correlation between blood glucose fluctuations and risk of death. Results We selected 1,699 AMI patients into our study through screening. The included population was categorized into three groups based on the tertiles of blood glucose fluctuation values within 24 h of admission to the ICU. The three groups were <25 mg/dl, 25-88 mg/dl and >88 mg/dl. By cox regression analysis, the group with the highest blood glucose fluctuation values (>88 mg/dl) had the most significant increase in 30-day and 1-year mortality after excluding confounding factors (30-day mortality adjusted HR = 2.11; 95% CI = 1.49-2.98 p < 0.001; 1-year mortality adjusted HR = 1.83; 95% CI = 1.40-2.39 p < 0.001). As demonstrated by the Kaplan-Meier survival curves, the group with the greatest fluctuations in blood glucose has the worst 30-day and 1-year prognosis. Conclusions The extent of glucose fluctuations in patients with AMI in the first 24 h after ICU admission is an essential predictor as to 30-day as well as 1-year mortality. When blood glucose fluctuates more than 88 mg/dl within 24 h, mortality increases significantly with the range of blood glucose fluctuations.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Acute exacerbation of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (AECOPD) combined with respiratory failure (RF) is a chronic respiratory disease that seriously endangers human health. This study aimed to specifically evaluate the relationship between admission heart rate (AHR) and in-hospital mortality in patients with combined AECOPD and RF to better inform clinical treatment. METHODS This retrospective cohort study included 397 patients admitted to a Chinese hospital between January 2021 and March 2023. The primary outcome measure was all-cause in-hospital mortality. Multivariate logistic regression analyses were performed to calculate adjusted hazard ratios (OR) with corresponding 95% confidence intervals (CI), and curve fitting and threshold effect were performed to address nonlinear relationships. RESULTS In total, 397 patients with AECOPD/RF were screened. The mean (± SD) age of the study cohort was 72.6 ± 9.5 years, approximately 49.4% was female, and the overall in-hospital mortality rate was 5%. Multivariate logistic regression analysis and smooth curve fitting revealed a nonlinear association between AHR and in-hospital mortality in the study population, with 100 beats/min representing the inflection point. Left of the inflection point, the effect size (OR) was 0.474 (95% CI 0.016 ~ 13.683; p = 0.6635). On the right side, each 1 beat/min increase in AHR resulted in an effect size (OR) of 1.094 (95% CI 1.01 ~ 1.186; p = 0.0281). CONCLUSIONS Results of the present study demonstrated a nonlinear relationship between AHR and in-hospital mortality in patients with AECOPD/RF. When AHR was < 100 beats/min, it was not statistically significant; however, AHR > 100 beats/min was a predictor of potential mortality, which increased by 9.4% for every 1 beat/min increase in AHR.

Abstract
Endometriosis is a multifactorial disease associated with inflammation. Vitamin D has anti-inflammatory, antiproliferative, anti-oxidative, and immunomodulatory effects. Whether vitamin D levels are correlated with endometriosis is a subject of ongoing debate. This study aimed to examine the association between endometriosis and serum vitamin D levels. From the National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey, this study examined the cross-sectional data of American women aged 20-54 years from 2001 to 2006. After adjusting for covariates, multivariable logistic regression analysis was used to assess correlations. A total of 3,232 women were included in this study. The multiple linear regression model demonstrated a negative correlation between the serum 25-hydroxyvitamin D3 (cholecalciferol) concentration and the risk of endometriosis after controlling for all confounding variables. The odds ratio was 0.73 with a 95% confidence interval of 0.54-0.97 in the adequate vitamin D level group compared with the insufficient vitamin D level group. Our results showed that endometriosis was inversely correlated with serum 25-hydroxyvitamin D3 levels. Further research is needed to establish a causal relationship and determine the potential benefits of maintaining sufficient vitamin D levels for endometriosis prevention.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Methods for early prediction of the occurrence of acute kidney injury (AKI) were limited. The relationship between triglyceride glucose index (TyG) and the incidence of acute kidney injury in ICU patients is unclear. This study aims to explore the relationship between the two. METHODS Based on their TyG index, participants from the Intensive Care Medical Information Market IV (MIMIC-IV) were divided into quartiles. A logistic regression model was constructed based on the risk of acute kidney injury as the main outcome, in order to detect a potential relationship that may exist between the TyG index and acute kidney injury in ICU patients. Finally, in order to confirm the relationship existing between the TyG index and the results, a restricted cubic spline model was used. RESULTS In total, 54,263 patients were involved in our present study, of whom 48.2% were male. The occurrence of acute kidney injury was 25.1%. An independent relationship was observed between the TyG index and an increased risk of acute kidney injury through multivariate logistic regression analysis (OR, 1.28 [95% CI 1.22-1.35] p < 0.001). Q4 (5.344-9.911) of the TyG index quartiles was independently associated with an increase in the risk of acute kidney injury (OR, 1.43 [95% CI (1.32-1.54)] p < 0.001). Through the restricted cubic spline regression model, the risk of acute kidney injury was also demonstrated to increase linearly with an increase in the TyG index. CONCLUSION The triglyceride glucose index is related to the risk of acute kidney injury in ICU patients. In the future, in order to further validate this finding, larger prospective studies are needed.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Chronic diarrhea is difficult to prevent and treat due to its complex etiology and pathogenesis. It places a huge burden on patients and public healthcare. It is known that the regulation of body homeostasis relies heavily on calcium. However, in the general population, the relationship between calcium and chronic diarrhea remains uncertain. METHODS We assessed the association between serum calcium and diarrhea using data from the 2005-2010 National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (NHANES). Serum calcium level was measured from collected blood samples. Diarrhea was assessed using the Bristol Stool Scale (BSFS) (types 1-7). The stability of the results was assessed using logistic regression and sensitivity analysis. The dose-response association between serum calcium and the risk of diarrhea was analyzed using a restricted cubic spline plot. RESULTS This study included 12,342 participants. In each of the five models, an increased calcium level was negatively associated with the incidence of diarrhea (OR[95%CI]:0.26 [0.13-0.53], 0.28 [0.14-0.58], 0.4 [0.19-0.82], 0.27 [0.11-0.64] and 0.24 [0.10-0.59], respectively). When serum calcium was analyzed as a categorical variable, a significant association between serum calcium and diarrhea prevalence was found. The restricted cubic spline plot showed a linear relationship between serum calcium and diarrhea. Sensitivity analysis confirmed that the results were stable. CONCLUSION The results of our cross-sectional study suggest that a higher level of serum calcium may reduce the incidence of diarrhea. In the future, this finding should be further validated in a randomized controlled trial.

[PMID: 37904197 PMCID: PMC10614394 DOI: 10.1186/s13018-023-04275-6] [Citation(s) in RCA: 2] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/08/2023] [Accepted: 10/10/2023] [Indexed: 11/01/2023] Open
Abstract
OBJECTIVE Disorders in glucose and lipid metabolism have been shown to exert an influence on bone metabolism. The TyG index, which combines measures of glucose and triglycerides, provides insights into the overall metabolic status. However, the investigation of concurrent disturbances in glucose and lipid metabolism and their specific implications for bone metabolism remains limited in the existing research literature. This study aimed to explore the correlation between the TyG index and bone mineral density (BMD) in US adults. METHODS In the National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (NHANES), subjects were classified based on the TyG index into four groups (< 7.97, 7.97-8.39, 8.39-8.85, > 8.86). Linear regression analysis was conducted to determine the β value and 95% confidence interval (CI). Four multivariable models were constructed. Restricted cubic spline analyses and piecewise linear regression were employed to identify the association between the BMD and TyG index. An analysis of subgroups was also conducted in this study. RESULTS Significant variations in related characteristics were found among the US adult population, who were distributed into four groups based on the quartiles of the TyG index. A negative correlation between the TyG index and lumbar spine BMD was observed. In the multi-adjusted models, compared to Q1 of the TyG index, the β for Q4 of the TyG index for lumbar spine BMD was [β = - 0.008, 95% CI (- 0.017, 0)] in US adults. The association between the TyG index and lumbar spine BMD was found to be nonlinear (all nonlinear p < 0.001), with a threshold value based on restricted cubic spline analyses. Above the threshold point, the β for lumbar spine BMD was - 0.042 (95% CI, - 0.059, - 0.024). Below the threshold points, no significant difference was observed (p > 0.05). No significant interactions were observed among subgroups based on age, gender, presence of diabetes, BMI, and use of antidiabetic and antihyperlipidemic agents. Similar patterns of association were observed in total and subtotal bone density. CONCLUSIONS This study identified a nonlinear association between the TyG index and BMD in the US population. Furthermore, an increased level of the TyG index may indicate a higher risk of osteoporosis among US adults. These findings highlight the importance of considering glucose and lipid metabolism disturbances in understanding bone health and the potential for developing preventive strategies for osteoporosis.

Abstract
Purpose This study aims to explore the association between red cell index (RCI) and hospital mortality in Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD) patients in the intensive care unit. Patients and Methods This was a retrospective cohort research. The study included 821 COPD patients. Clinical data from the Medical Information Mart for Intensive Care IV (MIMIC-IV) database was conducted. Multivariate logistic regression analysis was used to assess the correlation between RCI and in-hospital mortality. Age, SOFA score, diabetes mellitus, cerebrovascular disease, congestive heart failure and mechanical ventilation were considered for subgroup analysis. Results This study comprised 821 patients, of which 16.5% (124/821) suffered hospital mortality. In the multivariate logistic regression model, RCI was positively associated with hospital mortality, each unit increase in RCI was associated with a 3% increase in hospital mortality (odds ratio [OR] =1.03; 95% confidence interval [95CI%] =1.01-1.06). Meanwhile, compare with the lowest RCI group, the highest RCI groups tended to have higher risks of hospital mortality (OR [95% CI] 2.33 [1.27-4.27]). Additionally, subgroup analysis result was persistent among all the groups. Conclusion Higher RCI was positively associated with a higher risk of mortality in critically ill patients with COPD. Further investigation is necessary to confirm these findings.

Abstract
BACKGROUND High-fiber diet has been associated with better cognitive performance. However, the association between dietary fiber intake and cognition in older patients with chronic kidney disease (CKD) remains unknown. Hence, this study aimed to investigate the effect of dietary fiber intake on cognition in older patients with CKD. METHODS This study included participants aged ≥60 years who provided data on social demography, cognitive tests (Consortium to Establish a Registry for Alzheimer's disease Word Learning [CERAD-WL], CERAD Delayed Recall [CERAD-DR], Animal Fluency Test [AFT], and Digit Symbol Substitution Test [DSST]), diet, and other potential cognition-related variables from the National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey 2011-2014. Fully-adjusted multivariate logistic regression subgroup models were performed, and multiple linear regression analyses were employed to examine the association between dietary fiber intake and cognition in patients with CKD. RESULTS A total of 2461 older adults were included, with 32% who suffered from CKD. Participants with CKD scored lower in CERAD-WL, CERAD-DR, AFT, and DSST. Patients with CKD consuming low dietary fiber (≤25 g/day) had a higher risk of CERAD-WL and DSST impairments. High dietary fiber intake eliminated the differences in CERAD-WL and DSST impairments between the CKD and non-CKD participants. However, no associations were observed between CKD and CERAD-DR and AFT impairments regardless of dietary fiber intake. A positive linear relationship between dietary fiber intake and AFT score was observed in older patients with CKD. CONCLUSION High dietary fiber intake may benefit cognitive function in older patients with CKD. High-fiber diet management strategies could potentially mitigate cognitive impairment in this group of patients.

Abstract
Acute myeloid leukemia (AML) is a heterogeneous hematological malignancy, and is one of the triggers of DIC, the latter is an essential factor in the early death of patients with AML. However, the timely identification of DIC remains a challenge. The Chinese DIC Scoring System (CDSS) is a common consensus widely used in China; but, there are few reports on its application in patients with AML. We undertake this retrospective cohort study to investigate the association between CDSS score and 60-day mortality. CDSS scores were evaluated after admission. The outcome was all-cause 60-day mortality. Multivariate Cox regression analyses were performed to calculate the adjusted hazard ratio (HR) and the corresponding 95% confidence interval (CI). Survival curves were plotted by Kaplan-Meier and log-rank analyses. Subgroup analyses were stratified by relevant effect covariates. A total of 570 consecutive patients with primary AML were included. We found an association between a 39% increase in 60-day mortality and a 1 point increase in CDSS score (HR = 1.39, 95% CI 1.25-1.54), which was associated with a 189% increase in 60-day mortality in CDSS scores ≥ 6 compared with that in the CDSS scores < 6 (HR = 2.89, 95% CI 1.91-4.38). After adjusting for all potential con-founders, a 27% and a 198% increase were observed (HR = 1.27, 95% CI 1.01-1.61; HR = 2.98, 95% CI 1.24-7.19), respectively. There is association between 60-day mortality and CDSS score in patients with AML. These findings may help hematologists in making informed treatment decisions.

Abstract
Background The neonatal sequential organ failure assessment (nSOFA) score is an operational definition of organ dysfunction employed to predict sepsis-associated mortality. However, the relationship between the nSOFA score and bronchopulmonary dysplasia (BPD) has not been investigated clearly. This study evaluates whether the nSOFA score within 72 h after delivery could be used to predict the occurrence of BPD in very preterm infants. Methods In this retrospective, single-center cohort study, preterm infants born between 2019 and 2021 were investigated, the nSOFA score was calculated from medical records after admission to the neonatal intensive care unit (NICU) within 72 h after delivery, and the peak value was used for calculation. A logistic regression model was used to evaluate the relationship between the nSOFA score and BPD. Propensity score matching and subgroup analysis were performed to verify the reliability of the results. Results Of 238 infants meeting the inclusion criteria, 93 infants (39.1%) were diagnosed with BPD. The receiver operating characteristic curve of the nSOFA score in predicting BPD was 0.790 [95% confidence interval (CI): 0.731-0.849]. The logistic regression model showed that an increment of one in the nSOFA score was related to a 2.09-fold increase in the odds of BPD (95% CI: 1.57-2.76) and 6.36-fold increase when the nSOFA score was higher than 1.5 (95% CI: 2.73-14.79). Conclusions The nSOFA score within 72 h after delivery is independently related to BPD and can be used to identify high-risk infants and implement early interventions.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Asthma is an inflammatory disease. The potential of n-3 polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFAs) to alleviate asthma symptoms through their anti-inflammatory effects and immune modulation has been explored. However, the precise role of dietary n-3 PUFAs in childhood and adolescent asthma remains unclear. OBJECTIVE This study aimed to evaluate the association between dietary n-3 PUFAs intake and asthma in children and adolescents in the United States. METHODS We conducted a cross-sectional analysis of 8543 children and adolescents from the National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (NHANES) between 2013 and 2020 by adjusting for covariates and using multivariate logistic regression, restricted cubic spline, threshold effects, and subgroup analyses. RESULTS Among 8354 participants, 1456 (16.5%) self-reported diagnosis of asthma by a healthcare provider. After adjusting for potential confounding factors, compared with individuals in the lowest n-3 PUFA consumption group (T1, <26.07 mg/kg/day), the adjusted odds ratio (OR) for asthma was 0.71 (95% CI: 0.6-0.84, p < .001) in the second group (T2, 26.07-48.93 mg/kg/day) and 0.58 (95% CI: 0.47-0.73, p < .001) in the third group (T3, >48.93 mg/kg/day). Furthermore, a nonlinear (L-shaped) relationship was observed between n-3 PUFA intake and asthma (p = .009), with subgroup and sensitivity analyses confirming the stability of the results. In the threshold analysis, a critical turning point was observed at approximately 59.0 mg/kg/day (OR = 0.984, 95% CI: 0.977-0.991, p < .001). CONCLUSION Dietary intake of n-3 PUFAs exhibited an L-shaped relationship with asthma in children and adolescents in the United States, with a critical turning point observed at approximately 59.0 mg/kg/day.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE The study assessed the association between migraine and cardiovascular disease (CVD) mortality in the US population. BACKGROUND Previous studies have drawn different conclusions about the association between migraine and CVD mortality based on different populations; therefore, it is important to explore the relationship between migraine and CVD mortality in the US population. METHODS This prospective cohort study included 10,644 participants from the National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (NHANES) 1999-2004. Participants who reported having severe headache or migraine were classified as having migraine. Mortality data were obtained by linkage of the cohort database to the National Death Index as of December 31, 2019. Based on the International Classification of Diseases, Tenth Revision, CVD mortality includes the following disease codes: I00-I09 (acute rheumatic fever and chronic rheumatic heart diseases), I11 (hypertensive heart disease), I13 (hypertensive heart and renal disease), I20-I25 (ischemic heart diseases), I26-I28 (pulmonary embolism and other acute pulmonary heart diseases), I29 (various cardiovascular diseases caused by different reasons), I30-I51 (other forms of heart disease), and I60-I69 (cerebrovascular diseases). Data were analyzed from October to November 2022. RESULTS Among 10,644 adults included in the study (mean age, 46.4 [0.3] years, 5430 men [47.4%]), 2106 (20.4%) had migraine. During a median follow-up period of 201 months, there were 3078 all-cause deaths and 997 CVD deaths. Compared to individuals without migraine, those with migraine had an adjusted hazard ratio (HR) of 1.30 (95% confidence interval [CI], 1.04-1.62; p = 0.019) for CVD mortality and 1.23 (95% CI, 1.13-1.35; p < 0.001) for all-cause mortality. In subgroup analyses, migraine was associated with CVD mortality in participants who were women (HR, 1.43; 95% CI, 1.06-1.93), aged < 45 years (HR, 1.69; 95% CI, 1.04-2.76), non-Hispanic White (HR, 1.42; 95% CI, 1.09-1.86), those with a body mass index < 30 kg/m2 (HR, 1.36; 95% CI, 1.03-1.78), former or current smokers (HR, 1.36; 95% CI, 1.00-1.85), former or current alcohol drinkers (HR, 1.33; 95% CI, 1.03-1.72), and those without metabolic syndrome (HR, 1.31; 95% CI, 1.01-1.71). The association between migraine and CVD mortality was robust in sensitivity analyses, after excluding participants who died within 2 years of follow-up (HR, 1.31; 95% CI, 1.05-1.65) or those with a history of cancer at baseline (HR, 1.28; 95% CI, 1.01-1.62). CONCLUSIONS Migraine was associated with a higher CVD mortality rate in the US population.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Headache disorders are widely prevalent and pose a considerable economic burden on individuals and society. Globally, misdiagnosis and inadequate treatment of primary headache disorders remain significant challenges, impeding the effective management of such conditions. Despite advancements in headache management over the last decade, a need for comprehensive evaluations of the status of primary headache disorders in China regarding diagnosis and preventative treatments persists. METHODS In the present study, we analyzed the established queries in the Survey of Fibromyalgia Comorbidity with Headache (SEARCH), focusing on previous diagnoses and preventative treatment regimens for primary headache disorders. This cross-sectional study encompassed adults diagnosed with primary headache disorders who sought treatment at 23 hospitals across China between September 2020 to May 2021. RESULTS The study comprised 2,868 participants who were systematically examined. Migraine and tension-type headaches (TTH) constituted a majority of the primary headache disorders, accounting for 74.1% (2,124/2,868) and 23.3% (668/2,868) of the participants, respectively. Medication overuse headache (MOH) affected 8.1% (231/2,868) of individuals with primary headache disorders. Over half of the individuals with primary headache disorders (56.6%, 1,624/2,868) remained undiagnosed. The previously correct diagnosis rates for migraine, TTH, TACs, and MOH were 27.3% (580/2,124), 8.1% (54/668), 23.2% (13/56), and 3.5% (8/231), respectively. The misdiagnosis of "Nervous headache" was found to be the most prevalent among individuals with migraine (9.9%, 211/2,124), TTH (10.0%, 67/668), trigeminal autonomic cephalalgias (TACs) (17.9%, 10/56), and other primary headache disorders (10.0%, 2/20) respectively. Only a minor proportion of individuals with migraine (16.5%, 77/468) and TTH (4.7%, 2/43) had received preventive medication before participating in the study. CONCLUSIONS While there has been progress made in the rate of correct diagnosis of primary headache disorders in China compared to a decade ago, the prevalence of misdiagnosis and inadequate treatment of primary headaches remains a veritable issue. As such, focused efforts are essential to augment the diagnosis and preventive treatment measures related to primary headache disorders in the future.

Food Sci Nutr 2023; 11:4665-4677. [PMID: 37576051 PMCID: PMC10420777 DOI: 10.1002/fsn3.3429] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/25/2023] [Revised: 04/26/2023] [Accepted: 05/03/2023] [Indexed: 08/15/2023] Open
Abstract
Both iodine concentration and protein intake are important nutritional factors that may influence the development of depressive symptoms. However, there are no studies on the effect of protein intake on the relationship between iodine concentration and the risk of depression. The study aimed to explore the relationship between iodine and the risk of clinically relevant depression (CRD) according to protein intake. This study analyzed the adults (≥18 years) who participated in the 2007-2018 National Health and Nutrition Cross-sectional Survey (N = 10,462). CRD was assessed using the Patient Health Questionnaire (PHQ-9). Protein intake was assessed using two 24-h dietary recalls and urinary iodine concentration (UIC) was measured using inductively coupled plasma dynamic response cell mass spectrometry. Weighted multivariate logistic regression and restrictive cubic splines were performed to assess the relationship between UIC and CRD according to protein category (low protein intake <0.8 g/kg/day; high protein intake: ≥0.8 g/kg/day). After controlling for sociodemographic, behavioral, chronic diseases, and dietary factors, a positive correlation was observed between UIC (log10) and CRD (OR: 1.36, 95% CI: 1.026, 1.795). Low UIC (<100 μg/L) was associated with a lower prevalence of CRD (OR: 0.73, 95% CI: 0.533, 0.995) in high protein intake individuals, whereas this relationship did not exist in those with low protein intake. Moreover, restrictive cubic splines confirmed a near L-shaped relationship between UIC and CRD in the low-protein group (nonlinear p = .042) and a linear relationship between them in the high-protein group (nonlinear p = .392). This study illustrates that protein intake affects the relationship between UIC and CRD. Combining lower UIC and high protein intake may help reduce the prevalence of CRD, which would have significant implications for managing patients with depressive CRD in the clinical setting.

Abstract
Background Depression, a serious public health disorder, is increasingly prevalent worldwide. An association between alkaline phosphatase (ALP) and neurological disorders has been reported. However, data on ALP and depression risk are scarce, which warrants attention. Methods We assessed the association between ALP and risk of depression in adults from the 2007-2014 National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (NHANES). Depression was assessed using the Patient Health Questionnaire-9. Univariate and multivariate logistic regression were used to assess the association between ALP and risk of depression, and subgroup analyses were also performed. Results A total of 17,485 participants were included. The prevalence of depression was 9.3% (1,631/17,485) and ALP was significantly associated with the risk of depression when ALP was a categorical variable (quadratic or categorized by 79 U/L) in a multivariate logistic regression model after adjusting for confounding factors (≥79 U/L vs. <79 U/L, adjusted OR, 1.15; 95%CI, 1.02-1.29). Each 1-unit increase in ALP (log2) was associated with a 20% increase in depression prevalence (adjusted OR, 1.20; 95%CI, 1.06-1.36) when ALP was used as a continuous variable. Subgroup analysis showed that ALP was positively associated with the risk of depression with different characteristics. Conclusion Our findings suggest that higher alkaline phosphatase levels, even within the normal range, are significantly associated with a higher risk of depression in US adults. Such findings require further prospective studies to provide more evidence.

Abstract
The relationship between serum creatinine and type 2 diabetes is limited. We aimed to investigate the association of baseline serum creatinine and new-onset type 2 diabetes in Chinese population. This retrospective cohort study was conducted using data from the health screening program in China. The population were divided into four groups based on serum creatinine levels, and the outcome of interest was the occurrence of a diabetic event. Cox proportional risk model was used to assess the independent effect of baseline serum creatinine level on future diabetes risk. Sensitivity and subgroup analysis were used to verify the reliability of the results. After an average follow-up of 3.12 years, among 201,298 individuals aged ≥ 20 years, 3389 patients developed diabetes. Compared with participants in quartile 2-4 (> 51.6umol/L for female, > 71.8umol/L for male,), a significantly higher risk of new-onset Type 2 Diabetes (OR, 1.15; 95%CI: 1.07-1.23) was found in those in quartile 1 (< 51.6umol/L for female, < 71.8umol/L for male). Moreover, Similar results were found in various subgroups stratified by age, BMI, TG, TC, FPG and family history group. Low serum creatinine is independently associated with increased risk of type 2 diabetes in Chinese adults. It was also stable in various subgroups stratified.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE The optimal blood pressure (BP) targets for acute ischemic stroke are unclear. We aimed to assess the relationship between Mean BP and clinical outcomes during hospitalization. MATERIALS AND METHODS We included 649 patients with Acute ischemic stroke (AIS) from December 2020 to July 2021. BP was measured daily, and mean blood pressure was calculated. Clinical events recorded within 90 days of randomization were: recurrent ischemic stroke, symptomatic intracranial hemorrhage, and death. The modified Rankin Scale (mRS) was used to measure primary outcomes 3 months after AIS. Logistic multiple regression analysis was performed by statistical software R. RESULT There is a nonlinear U-shaped relationship between SBP and poor outcomes. This means higher SBP and lower SBP will increase the incidence of poor outcomes. The optimal mean SBP during hospitalization was 135-150 mmHg, and patients with SBP < 135mmhg OR 2.4 [95% Cl, (1.16 ~ 4.97)], P = 0.018; and > 150mmhg OR 2.04 [95% Cl, 1.02 ~ 4.08], p = 0.045 had a higher probability of poor outcomes. CONCLUSION Our study shows that the optimal SBP of patients with AIS during hospitalization was 135-150 mmHg. The findings suggest that the relationship between mean SBP and 3-month functional outcome after AIS was U-shaped. Both higher SBP and lower SBP lead to poor prognosis in AIS patients.

Abstract
Although research in adults has revealed a positive relationship between blood lead levels (BLLs) and homocysteine (Hcy) levels in adults, few studies have investigated this relationship in children and adolescents. We evaluated the relationship between lowlevel blood lead and Hcy levels in US children and adolescents. A total of 8,313 children and adolescents aged 8-19 participated in this study via the National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey 1999-2006. Multivariable linear regression analyses were performed to examine the association between continuous BLLs and Hcy levels. The dose-dependent relationship between continuous BLLs and Hcy levels was analyzed using smooth curve fitting. The average age of participants was 14.1 ± 3.3 years (50.3% male). The mean values of BLLs and Hcy levels were 1.45 μg/dL and 5.77 μmol/L, respectively. In a multivariable adjusted model, an increase in 1.0 μg/dL of BLLs was associated with an elevation of 0.06 μmol/L in Hcy levels (β = 0.06, 95%CI:0.02-0.10, P = 0.001). A linear relationship between BLLs and Hcy levels was discovered using smooth curve fitting (P non-linearity = 0.464). The relationship between low-level blood lead and Hcy levels was stronger on participants with lower serum folate levels (P for interaction = 0.002). Low BLLs were positively associated with plasma Hcy levels in children and adolescents, which varies depending on the levels of folate, vitamin B, and dietary supplements involved in Hcy metabolism.

Abstract
Growing evidence indicates that handgrip strength (HGS) is a conspicuous marker for assessing some diseases affecting middle-aged and elderly individuals. However, research regarding HGS and heart failure (HF) is sparse and controversial. Hence, we aimed to investigate the association between HGS and HF among adults aged 45 years and older in the United States. In this cross-sectional study, we included 4524 adults older than 45 years who were part of the National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey. A generalized additive model was used to estimate the association between HGS and HF. Age, gender, race, income, education, body mass index, smoking status, drinking status, diabetes, hypertension, stroke, vigorous physical activity, total energy intake, total protein intake, total sugars intake, and total fat intake covariates were adjusted using multiple regression models. And further subgroup analysis was conducted. We documented 189 cases of HF, including 106 men and 83 women. HGS was negatively associated with HF after adjusting for all the covariates (odds ratio = 0.97, 95% confidence interval = 0.96-0.99; P < 0.001). Compared with the lowest quintile, the highest quintile was associated with an 82% lower incidence of HF (odds ratio = 0.18, 95% confidence interval = 0.08-0.43; P < 0.001). Subgroup analysis showed that the results remained stable. In US adults older than 45, HGS was negatively associated with HF after adjusting for covariates. This finding had the potential to draw attention to the physiological and pathological effects of decreased muscle function on HF and may influence further prospective studies with intervention trials.

Approximately 20% of CRC patients are associated with a permanent stoma, which greatly affects the lifestyle of patients. This study aimed to investigate risk factors for predicting permanent stoma (PS) in patients with acute obstructive colorectal cancer. METHODS We retrospectively analyzed the clinical-pathological features of patients with acute obstructive colorectal cancer who underwent treatments from our hospital between January 2015 and December 2020. Univariate and multivariate logistic regression analyses were used to evaluate the risk factors for predicting PS chances of CRC patients using a nomogram method. Furthermore, the operating characteristic (ROC) curve and area under the ROC curve (AUC) were used to assess the discrimination power of the nomogram. Calibration plot was used to evaluate nomogram's calibration. RESULTS A total of 98 patients with acute obstructive colorectal cancer were enrolled in this study, including 24 PS patients with permanent stoma and 74 non-PS patients. Multivariate analysis showed that age [odds ratio (OR): 1.068, 95% confidence interval (CI): 1.006 ~ 1.135, P = 0.032], carcinoembryonic antigen (CEA) [OR: 1.015, 95% CI: 1.003 ~ 1.028, P = 0.013], and surgical method [emergency group vs. stent group, OR: 14.066, 95% CI: 3.625 ~ 54.572, p < 0.001] were independent risk factors for PS. These risk factors were incorporated into a nomogram and showed that the AUC of the nomogram was 0.867 (95% CI: 0.782-0.951). The calibration plot got consistent with prediction for PS in the nomogram. CONCLUSION Age, CEA, and surgical method were independent risk factors for PS in patients with acute obstructive colorectal cancer. Our nomogram has favorable predictive power for PS in CRC patients.

Natural course and risk factors of moyamoya disease with unruptured intracranial aneurysm. Front Neurol 2023; 14:1115909. [PMID: 36846147 PMCID: PMC9947525 DOI: 10.3389/fneur.2023.1115909] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/04/2022] [Accepted: 01/19/2023] [Indexed: 02/11/2023] Open
Abstract
Background and objective The natural course and risk factors of moyamoya disease (MMD) associated with unruptured intracranial aneurysms involving stenosed parental arteries are scarcely studied. This study aimed to elucidate the natural course of MMD and its associated risk factors in patients with MMD with unruptured aneurysms. Methods Between September 2006 and October 2021, patients with MMD with intracranial aneurysms at our center were examined. The natural course, clinical features, radiological features, and follow-up outcomes after revascularization were analyzed. Results This study included 42 patients with MMD with intracranial aneurysms (42 aneurysms). The age distribution of MMD cases ranged from 6 to 69 years, with four children (9.5%) and 38 adults (90.5%). A total of 17 male and 25 female subjects were included (male-to-female ratio: 1:1.47). The first symptom was cerebral ischemia in 28 cases, and cerebral hemorrhage occurred in 14 cases. There were 35 trunk aneurysms and seven peripheral aneurysms. There were 34 small aneurysms (<5 mm) and eight medium aneurysms (5-15 mm). During the average clinical follow-up period of 37.90 ± 32.53 months, there was no rupture or bleeding from aneurysms. Twenty-seven of these patients underwent a cerebral angiography review, in which it was found that one aneurysm had enlarged, 16 had remained unchanged, and 10 had shrunk or disappeared. A correlation exists between the reduction or disappearance of aneurysms and the progression of the Suzuki stages of MMD (P = 0.015). Nineteen patients underwent EDAS on the aneurysm side, and nine aneurysms disappeared, while eight patients did not undergo EDAS on the aneurysm side and one aneurysm disappeared. Conclusion The risk of rupture and hemorrhage of unruptured intracranial aneurysms is low when the parent artery already has stenotic lesions, thus, direct intervention may not be necessary for such aneurysms. The progression of the Suzuki stage of moyamoya disease may play a role in the shrinkage or disappearance of the aneurysms, thereby decreasing the risk of rupture and hemorrhage. Encephaloduroarteriosynangiosis (EDAS) surgery may also help promote atrophy or even the disappearance of the aneurysm, thus reducing the risk of further rupture and bleeding.

ENVIRONMENTAL SCIENCE AND POLLUTION RESEARCH INTERNATIONAL 2023; 30:20327-20336. [PMID: 36251185 PMCID: PMC9574790 DOI: 10.1007/s11356-022-23629-x] [Citation(s) in RCA: 3] [Impact Index Per Article: 3.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/03/2022] [Accepted: 10/10/2022] [Indexed: 06/16/2023]
Abstract
Clinical studies on the relationship between pesticide exposure at home and infertility in the general population are scarce. Whether the antioxidant nutrients or other health-related factors affect the pesticide-infertility relationship remains unknown. This nationwide study screened 29,400 participants of the National Health and Nutrition Examination Surveys conducted between 2013 and 2018. The participants were subdivided according to dietary zinc intake based on the recommended dietary allowances as the low-zinc and high-zinc groups (< 8 and ≥ 8 mg/day, respectively), and according to body mass index (BMI; cut-off 28 kg/m2) as the low-BMI and high-BMI groups. Participants who were exposed to pesticides at home had an increased risk of infertility (odds ratio [OR] = 1.56, 95% confidence intervals [CI]: 1.06-2.29). The incidence of infertility differed in low-zinc and high-zinc groups (OR, 95% CI: 2.38, 1.40-4.06 vs. 0.98, 0.53-1.79, respectively), indicating an interaction between pesticide exposure and zinc intake in households (P = 0.047), which suggests that a zinc-rich diet may reduce the risk of pesticide-induced infertility. Similarly, the relationship between pesticide exposure and infertility risk differed in the low-BMI and high-BMI groups (OR, 95% CI: 0.90, 0.42-1.93 vs. 2.23, 1.39-3.58, respectively; P = 0.045), suggesting that high BMI may intensify the infertility risk caused by pesticide exposure. These new findings reveal the antagonistic and synergistic effect of zinc and obesity, respectively, in pesticide-induced infertility risk and suggest that individuals who are obese and on a low-zinc diet may be more susceptible to infertility induced by household pesticide exposure.

Abstract
Background and purpose There was little evidence to study the relationship between hypocalcemia and mortality among critically ill patients with intracerebral hemorrhage (ICH) aged ≥16 years. This study aimed to determine the potential association between hypocalcemia and in-hospital and ICU mortality in patients with ICH in the United States. Methods We analyzed 1,954 patients with ICH from the e-Intensive Care Unit Collaborative Research Database and divided them into hypocalcemia and non-hypocalcemia groups. Hypocalcemia was defined as albumin-adjusted total calcium below 8.4 mg/dl. The primary and secondary outcomes were hospital and ICU mortality, respectively. We performed multivariable regression and subgroup analyses to evaluate the association of hypocalcemia with hospital and ICU mortality. Cumulative survival rate analysis was performed using Kaplan-Meier curves with log-rank statistics. Results We enrolled 1,954 patients with ICH who had been hospitalized in ICU for >24 h and were older than 16 years (average age, 61.8 years; men, 56.7%). We noted that 373 (19%) hospital mortality occurred, including 235 (12%) ICU mortality. In this sample, 195 patients had hypocalcemia. Multivariable logistic regression analyses showed that hypocalcemia was associated with a 67% increased risk of in-hospital and a 72% increased risk of ICU mortality. This association was consistent across subgroup analyses. Conclusions Hypocalcemia was associated with a high risk of hospital and ICU mortality among critically ill patients with ICH. Future prospective, randomized, controlled studies are needed to confirm our results.

Abstract
Background The relationship between human serum albumin levels and the prognosis of critical care patients with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) remains controversial. Objective To investigate the relationship between serum albumin levels and in-hospital mortality in critical care patients with COPD. METHODS: This study used a retrospective observational cohort from the Medical Information in Intensive Care database (MIMIC-IV) in the United States. Multivariate Cox regression analysis was used to assess the relationship between serum albumin levels and in-hospital mortality. A restricted cubic spline line was also used to explore nonlinear relationship. Results A total of 3,398 critical care patients with COPD were included. The overall in-hospital mortality was 12.4%. We found a negative relationship between human serum albumin and in-hospital mortality (HR = 0.97, 95% CI 0.96-0.99, p = 0.002). Conclusion In critical care patients with COPD, there was a negative association between human serum albumin and in-hospital mortality.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE The aims were to explore the prevalence and clinical features of fibromyalgia in Chinese hospital patients with primary headache. BACKGROUND Studies done in non-Chinese populations suggest that around one-third of patients with primary headache have fibromyalgia, but data from mainland China are limited. Investigations into the prevalence and clinical features of fibromyalgia in Chinese patients with primary headache would improve our understanding of these two complex disease areas and help guide future clinical practice. METHODS This cross-sectional study included adults with primary headache treated at 23 Chinese hospitals from September 2020 to May 2021. Fibromyalgia was diagnosed using the modified 2010 American College of Rheumatology criteria. Mood and insomnia were evaluated employing the Hospital Anxiety and Depression Scale and the Insomnia Severity Index. RESULTS A total of 2782 participants were analyzed. The fibromyalgia prevalence was 6.0% (166/2782; 95% confidence interval: 5.1%, 6.8%). Compared to primary headache patients without combined fibromyalgia, patients with primary headache combined with fibromyalgia were more likely to be older (47.8 vs. 41.7 years), women (83.7% [139/166] vs. 72.8% [1904/2616]), less educated (65.1% [108/166] vs. 45.2% [1183/2616]), and with longer-duration headache (10.0 vs. 8.0 years). Such patients were more likely to exhibit comorbid depression (34.3% [57/166] vs. 9.9% [260/2616]), anxiety (16.3% [27/166] vs. 2.7% [70/2612]), and insomnia (58.4% [97/166] vs. 17.1% [447/2616]). Fibromyalgia was more prevalent in those with chronic (rather than episodic) migraine (11.1% [46/414] vs. 4.4% [72/1653], p < 0.001) and chronic (rather than episodic) tension-type headache (11.5% [27/235] vs. 4.6% [19/409], p = 0.001). Most fibromyalgia pain was in the shoulders, neck, and upper back. CONCLUSIONS The prevalence of fibromyalgia in mainland Chinese patients with primary headache was 6.0%. Fibromyalgia was more common in those with chronic rather than episodic headache. The most common sites of fibromyalgia pain were the neck, shoulders, and back.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Fatty liver index (FLI) is a predictor of non-alcohol fatty liver disease (NAFLD). This study aimed to assess the association between FLI and carotid intima media thickness (CIMT). METHODS In this cross-sectional study, we enrolled 277 individuals for health examination from the China-Japan Friendship Hospital. Blood sampling and ultrasound examinations were conducted. Multivariate logistic regression and restricted cubic spline analyses were performed to evaluate the association between FLI and CIMT. RESULTS Overall, 175 (63.2%) and 105 (37.9%) individuals had NAFLD and CIMT, respectively. The multivariate logistic regression analyses results showed that high FLI was independently associated with a high risk of increased CIMT, T2 vs. T1 (odds ratio [OR], 95% confidence interval [CI]): 2.41, 1.10-5.25, p = 0.027; T3 vs. T1 (OR, 95% CI): 1.58, 0.68-3.64, p = 0.285. The association between FLI and increased CIMT exhibited a J-shaped curve (nonlinear, p = 0.019). In the threshold analysis, the OR for developing increased CIMT was 1.031 (95% CI: 1.011-1.051, p = 0.0023) in participants with FLI < 64.247. CONCLUSION The relationship between FLI and increased CIMT in the health examination population is J-shaped, with an inflection point of 64.247.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE The study examined the relationship between dietary zinc intake and migraine. BACKGROUND Neuroinflammatory and oxidative stress are involved in the pathogenesis of migraine. Little is known about the effects of zinc, an anti-inflammatory and antioxidant trace element, on migraine. METHODS The US National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey data from 1999 to 2004 were analyzed for this cross-sectional study. Participants who had severe headache or migraine were classified as having migraine. Dietary zinc intake was evaluated using the 24 h dietary recall system. RESULTS A total of 11,088 participants were included, of whom, 20.2% (2236/11,088) reported having migraine disease. Compared to the lowest dietary zinc intake quintile (Q1, ≤5.9 mg/day), the adjusted odds ratios for migraine in Q2 (6.0-8.4 mg/day), Q3 (8.5-11.2 mg/day), Q4 (11.3-15.7 mg/day), and Q5 (≥15.8 mg/day) were 0.73 (95% confidence interval [CI]: 0.61-0.88, p = 0.004), 0.71 (95% CI: 0.56-0.91, p = 0.013), 0.71 (95% CI: 0.57-0.90, p = 0.008), and 0.70 (95% CI: 0.52-0.94, p = 0.029), respectively. Sensitivity analysis of zinc supplementation survey participants also showed an association between dietary zinc intake and migraine. Compared to the lowest total zinc intake quintile (Q1: 0.5-9.6 mg/day), the adjusted odds ratios for migraine in Q3 (19.3-24.3 mg/day) and Q4 (24.4-32.5 mg/day) were 0.62 (95% CI: 0.46-0.83, p = 0.019) and 0.67 (95% CI: 0.49-0.91, p = 0.045), respectively. CONCLUSIONS Our findings indicate an inverse association between dietary zinc intake and migraine in adult Americans.

Abstract
Background There is limited research on the incidence of secondary lung cancer (SLC) after radiotherapy (RT) for oral cavity cancer (OCC). Therefore, we investigated the association between RT for OCC and the risk of SLC and the overall survival of these patients. Methods Patients diagnosed with OCC between 1975 and 2015 were selected from the Surveillance, Epidemiology, and End Results database. The cumulative incidence of SLC, relative risk (RR) of RT vs. no RT (NRT), standardized incidence ratios (SIR), and survival outcomes were assessed. Results A total of 10,936 patients with OCC were included. Of these, 429 (3.92%) patients developed SLC, where 136 (5.02%) received RT and 293 (3.56%) did not. The cumulative incidence of SLC during follow-up was 6.89% and 4.84% in the RT and NRT patients, respectively. RT was associated with a higher risk of SLC. In the subset analysis, the results showed that a higher risk of developing SLC among patients with index OCC in most subgroups. Dynamic RR and SIR revealed a decreased risk of SLC with increasing latency time. No difference was observed in the 10-year survival rates for patients with SLC who received RT or not or compared with primary lung cancer. Conclusion RT was associated with a higher risk of SLC, and patients diagnosed with OCC could be followed for 5-10 years after diagnosis.
