Effects of dietary intervention combined with insulin aspart on serum nesfatin-1 and CTRP12 levels and pregnancy outcomes in pregnant women with gestational diabetes mellitus.

To analyze the effects of dietary intervention combined with insulin aspart on the serum levels of nesfatin-1, C1q/TNF related protein-12 (CTRP12), and pregnancy outcomes in pregnant women with gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM). In this retrospective cohort study, 513 women with GDM admitted to Tangshan Central Hospital (Tangshan, China) between January 2019 and December 2022 were selected and divided into an observation group (dietary intervention combined with insulin aspart therapy; n = 284) and a control group (insulin aspart therapy, n = 229). The general characteristics, clinical outcomes, serum nesfatin-1 and CTRP12 levels, 2-hour postprandial blood glucose levels, pregnancy outcomes, and perinatal outcomes of the 2 groups were compared.

The carbon reduction effects of stepped carbon emissions trading and carbon capture and storage on hybrid wind-PV-thermal- storage generation operating systems.

To accelerate the low-carbon transformation of the power industry, a range of carbon emission reduction policies and technologies have emerged. However, the current China's carbon emissions trading (CET) policy is inadequate in encouraging power generation enterprises to take proactive measures towards emission reduction due to challenges like fixed and low carbon prices. The high proportion of renewable energy in electricity consumption also faces significant challenges due to the unpredictable nature of wind and PV energy.

The effect of vitamin D supplementation on glycemic status and C-reactive protein levels in type 2 diabetic patients with ischemic heart disease: A protocol for systematic review and meta-analysis.

Background: Vitamin D might be beneficial in diabetic patients with ischemic heart disease through its favorable effect on metabolic profiles and biomarkers of inflammation and oxidative stress. We performed a protocol for systematic review and meta-analysis to assess whether vitamin D supplementation could improve glucose control and inflammation in type 2 diabetic patients with ischemic heart disease.

Methods: The proposed systematic review and meta-analysis will conform to the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Review and Meta-analysis Protocols.

Differential expression of miR-130a-3p modulate ovarian epithelial carcinoma (OEC) cell development and could be a biomarker for OEC.

A lot of research investigations, conducted in the recent years, establishes that microRNAs (miRNAs) have an important role in keeping both growth and metastasis of Ovarian Epithelial Carcinoma (OEC) under control. However, the clinical and functional role of miR-130a-3p in OEC is yet to be explored. Through quantitative reaction i.
