Abstract
Background The severe acute abdomen associated with Henoch-Schonlein purpura (HSP) is an acute intussusception (AI). There is no reliable specific marker for AI with abdominal-type HSP. The serum total bile acid (TBA) level is a new prognostic marker associated with the severity of intestinal inflammation. The purpose of this study was to identify the prognostic value of serum TBA levels for the diagnosis of AI in children with abdominal-type HSP. Methods A retrospective study of 708 patients with abdominal-type HSP was conducted, with demographic data, clinical symptoms, hepatic function index, immune function markers, and clinical outcomes assessed. Patients were divided into two groups: HSP (613 patients) and HSP with AI (95 patients). The data were analysed using SPSS 22.0. Results Of the 708 patients, the serum TBA levels were higher in the HSP with AI group than in the HSP group (P < 0.05). Logistic regression analysis showed that vomiting (OR = 396.492, 95% CI = 14.93-10,529.67, P < 0.001), haematochezia (OR = 87.436, 95% CI = 5.944-1,286.214, P = 0.001), TBA (OR = 16.287, 95% CI = 4.83-54.922, P < 0.001), and D-dimer (OR = 5.987, 95% CI = 1.892-15.834, P = 0.003) were independent risk factors for abdominal-type HSP with AI. Receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve analysis showed that the optimal cut-off serum TBA value (sensitivity = 91.58%, specificity = 84.67%, AUC = 93.6524%) was >3 μmol/L for predicting AI in children with abdominal-type HSP. In this group of HSP patients with AI, a serum TBA level ≥6.98 μmol/L was significantly associated with an increased incidence of operative treatment (51.85% vs. 75.61%, P = 0.0181), intestinal necrosis (9.26% vs. 29.27%, P = 0.0117), and length of hospital stay [15.76 ± 5.31 vs. 10.98 ± 2.83 (days), P < 0.0001]. Conclusion In children with HSP and AI, the serum TBA level was significantly higher. A novel but promising haematological indicator, the serum TBA level, helps identify HSP with and without AI and predicts intestinal necrosis in HSP with AI.

Abstract
Objective Bile acids have underlying protective effects on bones structure. Long-term diabetes also causes skeletal disorders including osteoporosis, Charcot arthropathy and renal osteodystrophy. Nevertheless, few studies have reported whether bile acid is associated with bone metabolism in diabetics. This study aimed to explore the relationship between total bile acid (TBA) and bone mineral density (BMD) among patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM). Methods We retrospectively included 1,701 T2DM patients who were hospitalized in Taian City Central Hospital (TCCH), Shandong Province, China between January 2017 to December 2019. The participants were classified into the osteopenia (n = 573), osteoporosis (n= 331) and control groups (n= 797) according to BMD in the lumbar spine and femoral. The clinical parameters, including TBA, bilirubin, vitamin D, calcium, phosphorus and alkaline phosphatase were compared between groups. Multiple linear regression was used to analyze the relationship between TBA and BMD in lumbar spine, femoral, trochiter, ward's triangle region. A logistic regression was conducted to develop a TBA-based diagnostic model for differentiating abnormal bone metabolism from those with normal BMD. We evaluated the performance of model using ROC curves. Results The TBA level was significantly higher in patients with osteoporosis (Median[M]= 3.300 μmol/L, interquartile range [IQR] = 1.725 to 5.250 μmol/L) compared to the osteopenia group (M = 3.200 μmol/L, IQR = 2.100 to 5.400 μmol/L) and control group (M = 2.750 μmol/L, IQR = 1.800 to 4.600 μmol/L) (P <0.05). Overall and subgroup analyses indicated that TBA was negatively associated with BMD after adjusted for the co-variates (i.e., age, gender, diabetes duration, BMI, total bilirubin, direct bilirubin, indirect bilirubin) (P <0.05). Logistic regression revealed that higher TBA level was associated with increased risk for abnormal bone metabolism (OR = 1.044, 95% CI = 1.005 to 1.083). A TBA-based diagnostic model was established to identify individuals with abnormal bone metabolism (T-score ≤ -1.0). The area under ROC curve (AUC) of 0.767 (95% CI = 0.730 to 0.804). Conclusion Our findings demonstrated the potential role of bile acids in bone metabolism among T2DM patients. The circulating TBA might be employed as an indicator of abnormal bone metabolism.
