Plasma metabolites, systolic blood pressure, lifestyle, and stroke risk: A prospective cohort study.

Background: To estimate the associations of stroke risk with plasma metabolites, metabolic risk score (MRS), the combinations of MRS with hypertension or lifestyle, and lifestyle-related metabolic signature. To assess the improvement of the stroke risk prediction model through the incorporation of MRS.

Methods: A total of 77,315 participants from the UK Biobank were included in this study.

Platelet-Lymphocyte Ratio, Neutrophil-Lymphocyte Ratio and Their Dynamic Changes with Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus: A Cohort Study in China.

Background: This study aimed at investigating the relationships between Platelet-Lymphocyte ratio (PLR) and Neutrophil-Lymphocyte ratio (NLR) and their dynamic changes (∆PLR, ∆NLR) with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) in a Chinese cohort study.

Methods: This study recruited 41,439 individuals who were diagnosed without T2DM at first health examination and completed at least one follow-up. The relationships between NLR, PLR, ∆PLR, ∆NLR and T2DM risk were analyzed using the Cox regression model with corresponding Hazard Ratios (HRs) and 95% Confidence Intervals (CIs).
