The triglyceride to high density lipoprotein cholesterol (TG/HDL-C) ratio has been consistently linked with the risk of coronary heart disease (CHD). Nevertheless, there is a paucity of studies focusing on acute coronary syndrome (ACS) patients undergoing percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) or experiencing bleeding events. The study encompassed 17,643 ACS participants who underwent PCI.

Sepsis is a severe disease with high mortality, and liver injury is an independent risk factor for sepsis morbidity and mortality. We analyzed co-differentially expressed genes (co-DEGs) to explore potential biomarkers and therapeutic targets for sepsis-related liver injury. Three gene expression datasets (GSE60088, GSE23767, and GSE71530) were downloaded from the Gene Expression Omnibus (GEO).

Hemorrhagic shock (HS) is common in clinical emergencies, leading to millions of deaths each year globally. CD226 is a costimulatory adhesion molecule expressed on both immune cells and endothelial cells (ECs) to regulate their metabolic activity and function. As endothelial dysfunction occurs after HS, the roles CD226 plays in vascular EC metabolism were investigated.

Objective To investigate the effects on acute lung injury (ALI) of CD226 conditional knockout (CD226 CKO) in vascular endothelial cells were investigated in mice with hemorrhagic shock (HS) and its mechanism. Methods Male wild type (WT) and CD226 CKO mice were randomly divided into sham and HS groups: in the sham group, a heart puncture was performed but blood was not drawn; in the HS group, the heart was punctured and 30% of the total blood volume was drawn. To assess lung injury, lung lesions were observed by HE staining.

Adenosine deaminase acting on double-stranded RNA 1 (ADAR1) mediates adenosine-to-inosine (A-to-I) RNA editing events. ADAR1 is highly expressed in "septic" macrophages and in small intestinal tissues of mice with sepsis. Overexpression of ADAR1 suppresses inflammation and intestinal damage.
