Lifestyle and genetic predisposition are associated with incident irritable bowel syndrome: A population-based prospective cohort study. Clin Nutr 2024; 43:1544-1550. [PMID: 38754306 DOI: 10.1016/j.clnu.2024.05.016] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/05/2023] [Revised: 03/20/2024] [Accepted: 05/07/2024] [Indexed: 05/18/2024]
Abstract
Few prospective studies have investigated the joint effect of lifestyle factors and genetic susceptibility on the risk of irritable bowel syndrome (IBS). This study aims to evaluate the associations of lifestyle and genetic factors with incident IBS in the UK Biobank. We analyzed data from 481,057 participants (54% female) without prevalent IBS at enrollment in the UK Biobank. An overall healthy lifestyle was defined using six modifiable lifestyle factors, including smoking, body mass index (BMI), sleep duration, diet, physical activity, and alcohol consumption, and hence categorized into 'favorable', 'intermediate', and 'unfavorable' lifestyles. A Cox proportional hazard model was used to investigate the association between a healthy lifestyle and incident IBS. Furthermore, we constructed a polygenic risk score (PRS) for IBS and assessed whether lifestyle modified the effect of genetics on the development of IBS. During a median follow-up of 12.1 years, 8645 incident IBS were ascertained. Specifically, among the six modifiable lifestyle factors, adequate sleep demonstrates the greatest protective effect (hazard ratio [HR]: 0.72, 95% CI: 0.69,0.75) against IBS. Compared with a favorable lifestyle, an unfavorable lifestyle was associated with a 56% (95% CI: 46%-67%) increased risk of IBS (P = 8.99 × 10-40). The risk of incident IBS was 12% (95% CI: 4%-21%) higher among those at high genetic risk compared with those at low genetic risk (P = 0.005). When considering the joint effect of lifestyle and genetic susceptibility, the HR nearly doubled among individuals with high genetic risk and unfavorable lifestyle (HR: 1.80; 95% CI:1.51-2.15; P = 3.50 × 10-11) compared to those with low genetic risk and favorable lifestyle. No multiplicative or addictive interaction was observed between lifestyle and genetics. The findings from this study indicated that lifestyle and genetic factors were independently associated with the risk of incident IBS. All these results implicated a possible clinical strategy of lowering the incidence of IBS by advocating a healthy lifestyle.

Air pollutants, genetic susceptibility, and the risk of incident gastrointestinal diseases: A large prospective cohort study. ENVIRONMENTAL RESEARCH 2024; 247:118182. [PMID: 38218525 DOI: 10.1016/j.envres.2024.118182] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/26/2023] [Revised: 12/10/2023] [Accepted: 01/10/2024] [Indexed: 01/15/2024]
Abstract
A comprehensive overview of the associations between air pollution and the risk of gastrointestinal (GI) diseases has been lacking. We aimed to examine the relationships of long-term exposure to ambient particulate matter (PM) with aerodynamic diameter ≤2.5 μm (PM2.5), 2.5-10 μm (PMcoarse), ≤10 μm (PM10), nitrogen dioxide (NO2), and nitrogen oxides (NOx), with the risk of incident GI diseases, and to explore the interplay between air pollution and genetic susceptibility. A total of 465,703 participants free of GI diseases in the UK Biobank were included at baseline. Land use regression models were employed to calculate the residential air pollutants concentrations. Cox proportional hazard models were used to evaluate the associations of air pollutants with the risk of GI diseases. The dose-response relationships of air pollutants with the risk of GI diseases were evaluated by restricted cubic spline curves. We found that long-term exposure to ambient air pollutants was positively associated with the risk of peptic ulcer (PM2.5 : Q4 vs. Q1: hazard ratio (HR) 1.272, 95% confidence interval (CI) 1.179-1.372, NO2: 1.220, 1.131-1.316, and NOx: 1.277, 1.184-1.376) and chronic gastritis (PM2.5: 1.454, 1.309-1.616, PM10 : 1.232, 1.112-1.366, NO2: 1.456, 1.311-1.617, and NOx: 1.419, 1.280-1.574) after Bonferroni correction. Participants with high genetic risk and high air pollution exposure had the highest risk of peptic ulcer, compared to those with low genetic risk and low air pollution exposure (PM2.5: HR 1.558, 95%CI 1.384-1.754, NO2: 1.762, 1.395-2.227, and NOx: 1.575, 1.403-1.769). However, no significant additive or multiplicative interaction between air pollution and genetic risk was found. In conclusion, long-term exposure to ambient air pollutants was associated with increased risk of peptic ulcer and chronic gastritis.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To explore the associations between metabolic syndrome (MetS) and its individual components and the risk of rheumatoid arthritis (RA). METHODS A total of 369,065 individuals were included in the present study based on the UK Biobank. Multivariable Cox proportional hazards regression models were applied to estimate the associations between MetS and its individual components and the risk of RA. Mediation analysis was performed to further assess the potential mediating role of C-reactive protein (CRP) in the relationship between MetS and RA. RESULTS During a median follow-up period of 12.04 years, a total of 4901 incident RA cases were documented. MetS (hazard ratio [HR] 1.22, 95% CI 1.14-1.30) and 4 of its 5 components (elevated waist circumference [WC; HR 1.21, 95% CI 1.12-1.32], elevated triglyceride [TG] level [HR 1.12, 95% CI 1.05-1.19], reduced high-density lipoprotein cholesterol [HDL-C] level [HR 1.31, 95% CI 1.23-1.39], and hyperglycemia [HR 1.15, 95% CI 1.05-1.25]) were associated with an increased risk of RA. In addition, the risk of RA increased as the number of diagnosed MetS components increased, with the highest risk in participants with all 5 components. Mediation analysis showed that CRP might mediate the association between MetS and RA, accounting for 9.27% of the total effect. CONCLUSION These findings indicated positive associations between MetS and 4 of its components (WC, TG, HDL-C, and hyperglycemia) and the risk of RA, highlighting the importance of MetS management in the prevention of RA.

Clinicopathological and prognostic significance of PD-L1 and TIM-3 expression in medullary thyroid carcinoma: a retrospective immunohistochemistry study. J Endocrinol Invest 2024; 47:91-100. [PMID: 37464189 PMCID: PMC10776706 DOI: 10.1007/s40618-023-02126-z] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/06/2023] [Accepted: 05/30/2023] [Indexed: 07/20/2023]
Abstract
PURPOSE Expression of the programmed death-ligand 1 (PD-L1) and T-cell immunoglobulin and mucin-domain containing-3 (TIM-3) in medullary thyroid carcinoma (MTC) has been controversial and rarely reported. METHODS Surgical specimens of 190 MTC patients who had initial curative-intent surgery were collected. Immunohistochemistry of PD-L1 and TIM-3 was performed using 22C3 pharmDx (Dako, Carpinteria, CA) and anti-TIM-3 (1:500, ab241332, Abcam). Stained slides were scored using a combined positive score (CPS) with a cutoff of ≥ 1. We established correlations between PD-L1 expression, TIM-3 expression, clinicopathological, and survival data. RESULTS 13 cases (13/190, 6.84%) were positive for PD-L1 expression, and 42 cases (42/154, 27.27%) for TIM-3 expression. PD-L1 expression was correlated to TIM-3 expression (P = 0.002), but was not related to overall survival (OS) or progression-free survival (PFS). TIM-3 expression was correlated to perineural invasion (P = 0.040). Multivariate Cox analysis showed that lymphovascular invasion (LVI) was independently associated with OS. And tumor size, LVI, and lymph node metastases were significantly associated with PFS. Furthermore, the multivariate logistic analysis showed multifocal status, LVI, pathological T stage and lymph node metastasis were independent risk factors for biochemical recurrence/persistent disease. CONCLUSIONS We demonstrated that PD-L1 and TIM-3 expression were not frequent in MTC and were not associated with survival prognosis. Our results should be considered when clinical trials of PD-L1 or TIM-3 blockades are implemented.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE: To identify the risk factors associated with antimicrobial use on the initial acquisition of carbapenem-resistant Klebsiella pneumoniae (CRKP) in elderly intensive care unit (ICU) patients.METHODS: Respiratory secretion, blood, urine, anal swab and peritoneal drainage samples from all elderly patients with non-colonised CRKP who had been hospitalised from January 2021 to December 2022 were collected, and screened for CRKP colonisation using surveillance culture at the time of the first ICU admission and weekly thereafter in Zhejiang Provincial Hospital of Chinese Medicine, Zhejiang, China. Cumulative antibiotic variables included duration of antibiotic use, total amount of antimicrobials received in grams, total antibiotic consumption (defined daily dose) and the types of antimicrobial exposure. A time-dependent model based on Cox regression analysis was used to investigate the effect of each variable on the initial acquisition of CRKP infection or colonisation.RESULTS: Of 214 patients, 44 were infected or had CRKP colonies and death rate was 34.1%. males were the risk factor for acquiring CRKP in culture (HR 2.12, 95% CI 1.06-4.21; P = 0.033). It is notable that the hazard of acquiring CRKP increased by 9% with every single-point increase in the APACHE II score (HR 1.09, 95% CI 1.01-1.18; P = 0.025). The hazard of acquiring CRKP doubled when carbapenems were administered (HR 1.81, 95% CI 1.42-2.30; P < 0.001), In contrast, exposure to quinolone antimicrobials had a smaller effect on acquiring CRKP (HR 1.07; 95% CI 1.01-1.14; P = 0.024).CONCLUSION: This study found that male sex, APACHE II score and exposure to quinolones and carbapenems were independent risk factors for acquiring CRKP.

Abstract
To investigate the association of long-term exposure to ambient air pollution with the risk of allergic rhinitis (AR), we performed a longitudinal analysis of 379,488 participants (47.4% women) free of AR at baseline in the UK Biobank. The annual average concentrations of PM2.5, PMcoarse, PM10, NO2, and NOx were estimated by land use regression models. Cox proportional hazard models were used to calculate hazard ratios (HRs) and 95% confidence intervals (CIs). A weighted polygenic risk score was constructed. During a median follow-up period of 12.5 years, 3095 AR cases were identified. We observed significant associations between the risk of AR and PM2.5 (HR: 1.51, 95% CI: 1.27-1.79, per 5 μg/m3), PMcoarse (HR: 1.28, 95% CI: 1.06-1.55, per 5 μg/m3), PM10 (HR: 1.45, 95% CI: 1.20-1.74, per 10 μg/m3), NO2 (HR: 1.14, 95% CI: 1.09-1.19, per 10 μg/m3), and NOx (HR: 1.10, 95% CI: 1.05-1.15, per 20 μg/m3). Moreover, participants with high air pollution combined with high genetic risk showed the highest risk of AR, although no multiplicative or additive interaction was observed. In conclusion, long-term exposure to air pollutants was associated with an elevated risk of AR, particularly in high-genetic-risk populations, emphasizing the urgent need to improve air quality.

Abstract
PURPOSE/OBJECTIVE(S) This study examined the displacement and deformation in brain metastases (BMs) during adaptive hypofractionated radiotherapy (HFRT) on a magnetic resonance imaging linear accelerator (MR LINAC). In addition, the contouring variability between enhanced T1 (T1+c) and T2/FLAIR (T2f) sequence to define gross tumor volume (GTV) was compared. MATERIALS/METHODS Patients with 1-3 BMs and treated with MR LINAC were enrolled. T1+c sequence was acquired at initial planning, while T2/T2f was acquired during each fraction. GTV at initial planning (GTVi) and fraction 1-n (GTV1-n) were contoured in all images. Dice similarity coefficient (DSC) was used to quantify the contouring variability between different sequences at initial planning. The three-dimensional coordinate values of geometric centers of GTVi and GTV1-n were recorded and the distance was calculated. Statistical analysis was performed using two-sided paired t-test. RESULTS Between December 2019 and October 2022, 19 patients with 22 BMs were analyzed. The median age was 64 y (37-84 y) and the major primary tumor was lung cancer (89.5%). The median dose was 52 Gy in 13 fractions (30 Gy/5f- 60 Gy/20 f). The median GTVi on T1c, T2f and T2 sequences were 6.70cc (0.41-84.85 cc), 6.70 cc (0.35-84.14 cc, p = 0.924) and 6.16 cc (0.32-79.44 cc, p = 0.117), respectively. The mean DSC was 0.95 (0.76-1.00) and 0.86 (0.64-0.97) when comparing GTVi on T1c/T2f and T1c/T2, respectively. All of the lesions achieved volume reduction during HFRT and the mean reduction rate was 28.8% (4.8%-71.0%) at the end of HFRT. 54.5% of the BMs were reduced by more than 20%. The median treatment course and BED to get 20% reduction was 2/3 (40%-93%) and 40.8 Gy (24.5-67.5 Gy), respectively. The median shift of center of GTV1-n was 0.8 mm (0-2.5mm). The center of 7 lesions (31.8%) deviated more than 1mm from GTVi. CONCLUSION GTV contouring variability was seen between T1c, T2f and T2 sequences. The coincidence of T1+c and T2f was better than T1+c and T2 in BMs. Since reductions in volume and changes of lesion center was observed during HFRT, the use of MR-guided radiation therapy (RT) and treatment adaptation is needed. The optimal timing for treatment plan modification might be when the course of treatment reaches 2/3 for most large BMs. Further research to find out patients who may benefit form MR-guided adaptive RT is ongoing.

Abstract
Objective: To investigate the efficacy of sacubitril/valsartan in peritoneal dialysis (PD) patients with heart failure with preserved ejection fraction (HFpEF) and its effect on residual renal function. Methods: PD patients with HFpEF in Ningbo First Hospital from March 2018 to August 2021 were retrospectively enrolled and divided into study group with sacubitril/valsartan and control group with valsartan. The clinical baseline data before treatment and clinical indicators during follow-up (6 and 12 months after treatment) were collected and compared between the two groups, and the adverse reactions were also recorded. Results: A total of 99 patients were included in the study. There were 61 patients in the study group, including 44 males and 17 females, with a mean age of (52±13) years. Meanwhile, there were 38 patients in the control group, including 23 males and 15 females, with a mean age of (57±14) years. There was no statistically significant difference in clinical baseline data between the two groups (e.g., age, sex, body mass index, duration of dialysis) (all P>0.05). The N-terminal pro-B-type natriuretic peptide (NT-proBNP) and left ventricular end-systolic dimension (LVDs) were lower, but the left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) was higher in the study group than those in the control group at 6 and 12 months after treatment (all P<0.05). The systolic blood pressure (SBP) and diastolic blood pressure (DBP) of the two groups were lower than baseline values at 6 and 12 months after treatment respectively, with statistically significant differences (all P<0.05). However, there were no statistically significant differences in the decreases of SBP and DBP between the two groups at 6 and 12 months after treatment (all P>0.05). The decrease extents in residual estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) [0.52 (-0.05, 1.19) vs 1.72 (0.97, 2.39) ml·min-1·(1.73 m2)-1, P<0.001]and 24-h residual urine volume [200 (-100, 300) vs 300 (137, 400) ml, P=0.018] at 12 months after treatment were lower in the study group than those in the control group. During the follow-up period, hyperkalemia occurred in 16 cases (26.2%) and 13 cases (34.2%) in the study group and the control group, and hypotension occurred in 3 cases (4.9%) and 1 case (2.6%) in the study group and the control group, respectively. There were no adverse reactions such as cough and angioneurotic edema in the two groups. Conclusions: Sacubitril/valsartan can safely and effectively improve cardiac function and lower blood pressure in PD patients with HFpEF. Compared with valsartan, sacubitril/valsartan may be more beneficial to delay the loss of residual renal function in PD patients with HFpEF.

Genetically predicted iron status was associated with the risk of prostate cancer. Front Oncol 2022; 12:959892.

Abstract
Introduction Observational studies have reported a relationship between iron status and the risk of prostate cancer. However, it remains uncertain whether the association is causal or due to confounding or reverse causality. To further clarify the underlying causal relationship, we conducted a Mendelian randomization (MR) analysis. Methods We selected three genetic variants (rs1800562, rs1799945, and rs855791) closely correlated with four iron status biomarkers (serum iron, log-transformed ferritin, transferrin saturation, and transferrin) as instrumental variables. Summary statistics for prostate cancer were obtained from the Prostate Cancer Association Group to Investigate Cancer Associated Alterations in the Genome consortium including 79,148 cases and 61,106 controls of European ancestry. The inverse-variance weighted (IVW) method was conducted primarily to estimate the association of genetically predicted iron status and the risk of prostate cancer, supplemented with simple-median, weighted-median and maximum-likelihood methods as sensitivity analysis. MR-Egger regression was used to detect directional pleiotropy. We also conducted a meta-analysis of observational studies to assess the associations between iron status and the risk of prostate cancer. Results Genetically predicted increased iron status was associated with the decreased risk of prostate cancer, with odds ratio of 0.91 [95% confidence interval (CI): 0.84, 0.99; P = 0.035] for serum iron, 0.81 (95% CI: 0.65, 1.00; P = 0.046) for log- transformed ferritin, 0.94 (95% CI: 0.88, 0.99; P = 0.029) for transferrin saturation, and 1.15 (95% CI: 0.98, 1.35; P = 0.084) for transferrin (with higher transferrin levels representing lower systemic iron status), using the inverse-variance weighted method. Sensitivity analyses produced consistent associations, and MR-Egger regression indicated no potential pleiotropy. Our replication analysis based on FinnGen research project showed compatible results with our main analysis. Results from our meta-analysis similarly showed that serum ferritin [standardized mean difference (SMD): -1.25; 95% CI: -2.34, -0.16; P = 0.024] and transferrin saturation (SMD: -1.19; 95% CI: -2.34, -0.05; P = 0.042) were lower in patients with prostate cancer compared with that in controls. Discussion Our study suggests a protective role of iron in the risk of prostate cancer, further investigations are required to clarify the underlying mechanisms.

Abstract
The PHENIX collaboration presents first measurements of low-momentum (0.4<p_{T}<3 GeV/c) direct-photon yields from Au+Au collisions at sqrt[s_{NN}]=39 and 62.4 GeV. For both beam energies the direct-photon yields are substantially enhanced with respect to expectations from prompt processes, similar to the yields observed in Au+Au collisions at sqrt[s_{NN}]=200. Analyzing the photon yield as a function of the experimental observable dN_{ch}/dη reveals that the low-momentum (>1 GeV/c) direct-photon yield dN_{γ}^{dir}/dη is a smooth function of dN_{ch}/dη and can be well described as proportional to (dN_{ch}/dη)^{α} with α≈1.25. This scaling behavior holds for a wide range of beam energies at the Relativistic Heavy Ion Collider and the Large Hadron Collider, for centrality selected samples, as well as for different A+A collision systems. At a given beam energy, the scaling also holds for high p_{T} (>5 GeV/c), but when results from different collision energies are compared, an additional sqrt[s_{NN}]-dependent multiplicative factor is needed to describe the integrated-direct-photon yield.

Abstract
Objective:This study aimed to develop predictive models for sudden sensorineural hearing loss through deep belief network (DBN) and explore whether the model performances differ when adopting different outcome criteria. Method: 228 potential predictors involving the clinical characteristics, audio logical data, and serological parameters out of 1 220 hospitalized SSHL patients who were admitted from June 2008 to December 2015 were analyzed retrospectively. The hearing data of sudden deafness were classified into two or four categories based on Chinese criteria and Siegel criteria, which were used to develop the DBN models. The area under the receiver operating characteristic curve (ROC-AUC) and accuracy were used to compare the predictive performance of different models. Result: The DBN model developed for predicting the dichotomized outcomes had better performance than that of the fourcategory outcomes. When the iteration number reached 500 times, DBN model constructed for prediction of dichotomized outcomes based on Siegel's criteria had demonstrated the best performance with an accuracy of 76.25% and an AUC of 0.81. According to indices from first layer weights, DBN gave a rank of top 10 sensitive features for hearing outcome prediction focusing on indicators regarding coagulation, demographics and pre-treatment hearing levels independent of the outcome assessment criteria. Conclusion: DBN provides a robust outcome prediction ability in SSHL datasets with rich and complex variables, especially when utilized to predict dichotomized outcomes based on the Siegel criteria. In addition, this advanced deep learning technique can automatically extract valuable predictors, which is consistent with those that had been verified in previous studies by traditional statistical methods. This study provides further evidence for extending the use of DBN algorithm to the field of developing prediction or classification models for other otological diseases in the future..

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Sudden sensorineural hearing loss (SSHL) is a multifactorial disorder with high heterogeneity, thus the outcomes vary widely. This study aimed to develop predictive models based on four machine learning methods for SSHL, identifying the best performer for clinical application. DESIGN Single-centre retrospective study. SETTING Chinese People's liberation army (PLA) hospital, Beijing, China. PARTICIPANTS A total of 1220 in-patient SSHL patients were enrolled between June 2008 and December 2015. MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES An advanced deep learning technique, deep belief network (DBN), together with the conventional logistic regression (LR), support vector machine (SVM) and multilayer perceptron (MLP) were developed to predict the dichotomised hearing outcome of SSHL by inputting six feature collections derived from 149 potential predictors. Accuracy, precision, recall, F-score and the area under the receiver operator characteristic curves (ROC-AUC) were exploited to compare the prediction performance of different models. RESULTS Overall the best predictive ability was provided by the DBN model when tested in the raw data set with 149 variables, achieving an accuracy of 77.58% and AUC of 0.84. Nevertheless, DBN yielded inferior performance after feature pruning. In contrast, the LR, SVM and MLP models demonstrated opposite trend as the greatest individual prediction powers were obtained when included merely three variables, with the ROC-AUC ranging from 0.79 to 0.81, and then decreased with the increasing size of input features combinations. CONCLUSIONS With the input of enough features, DBN can be a robust prediction tool for SSHL. But LR is more practical for early prediction in routine clinical application using three readily available variables, that is time elapse between symptom onset and study entry, initial hearing level and audiogram.

Abstract
We investigated enhancement of articular cartilage regeneration using a combination of human adipose derived stem cells (hADSCs) and TGF-β3 microspheres (MS) in vivo. Poly-lactic-co-glycolic acid (PLGA)MS were prepared using a solid/oil/water emulsion solvent evaporation-extraction method. The morphology of the MS was evaluated by scanning electron microscopy (SEM). The release characteristic of the TGF-β3 MS was evaluated. A New Zealand rabbit model for experimental osteoarthritis (OA) was established using the anterior medial meniscus excision method. Thirty OA rabbits were divided randomly into three groups according to different treatments of the right knee joints on day 7 after surgery: hADSCs/MS group received injection of both hADSCs and TGF-β3 MS; hADSCs group was injected with hADSCs; control group was injected with normal saline. Gross observation, histological staining and RT-PCR for collagen II and aggrecan) were used to assess the severity of OA and for evaluating the effect of combined use of hADSCs and TGF-β3 MS on articular cartilage regeneration in vivo. The MS were spherical with a smooth surface and the average diameter was 28 ± 2.3 µm. The encapsulation efficiency test showed that 73.8 ± 2.9% of TGF-β3 were encapsulated in the MS. The release of TGF- β3 lasted for at least 30 days. At both 6 and 12 weeks after injection, three groups exhibited different degrees of OA. Histological analysis showed that the hADSCs/MS group exhibited less OA than the hADSCs group, and the control group exhibited the most severe OA. Real-time RT-PCR showed that the gene expression of both collagen II and aggrecan were significantly up-regulated in the hADSCs/MS group. At 12 weeks after injection, the hADSCs/MS group also exhibited less OA than the other two groups. Combined use of hADSCs and TGF-β3 MS promoted articular cartilage regeneration in rabbit OA models.
