Prognostic evaluation model of diabetic nephropathy patients.

Background: Diabetic nephropathy (DN) affects about 40% of diabetes mellitus (DM) patients and is the leading cause of chronic kidney disease (CKD) and end-stage renal disease (ESRD) globally, especially in advanced countries. We aimed to explore the risk factors affecting the prognosis of DN, and to establish a prognostic evaluation line map.

Methods: We analyzed 471 cases of DN from December 2011 to April 2020, and extracted the basic clinical factors, including gender, age, and history of diabetes.

Ionic liquids with metal chelate anions.

A series of stable (air, water stable and with good thermal stability) and hydrophobic ionic liquids based upon metal chelate anions were synthesized, which were shown to be effective, mild, and easy to recycle catalysts at the same time stable solvents for the oxidation of cyclohexene.
