Association analysis between serum asprosin and metabolic characteristics, Complications in type 2 diabetic patients with different durations.

Aims/introduction: To investigated the association between serum asprosin and metabolic characteristics in type 2 diabetes mellitus patients with different durations.

Materials And Methods: A total of 436 patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus were enrolled in this study from the community health service center in southeastern Shanxi Province. All the patients were divided into two groups according to their diabetes duration: diabetes duration ≤5 years group (n = 132) and diabetes duration ≥10 years group (n = 304).

The relationship between 25-hydroxy vitamin D and serum asprosin in patients with type 2 diabetes in the community.

Objectives: This study aimed to investigate the link between 25-hydroxy vitamin D and serum asprosin in individuals with type 2 diabetes within the community. The goal was to provide a foundation for clinical interventions.

Methods: Between November 2019 and July 2021, data from 463 patients with type 2 diabetes were consistently gathered at a community health service station in Southeast Shanxi Province.

Modular Edge Analysis Reveals Chemotherapy-induced Brain Network Changes in Lung Cancer Patients.

Background: Lung cancer patients with post-chemotherapy may have disconnected or weakened function connections within brain networks.

Objective: This study aimed to explore the abnormality of brain functional networks in lung cancer patients with post-chemotherapy by modular edge analysis.

Methods: Resting-state functional magnetic resonance imaging (rs-fMRI) scans were performed on 40 patients after chemotherapy, 40 patients before chemotherapy and 40 normal controls.

The clinical predictive value and regulation mechanism of microRNA-188-5p in contrast-induced acute kidney injury.

Contrast-induced acute kidney injury (CI-AKI), also known as contrast-induced nephropathy (CIN), has become the third leading cause of iatrogenic AKI. Serum creatinine (Scr) is currently used in CIN clinical diagnosis. Patients with increased Scr have developed severe kidney injury, so there is an urgent need to find a bio-marker for CIN early diagnosis.

Effectiveness of alteplase intravenous thrombolysis combined with butylphthalide in patients with acute severe cerebral infarction.

Introduction: The aim of the study was to investigate the effectiveness of alteplase intravenous thrombolysis combined with butylphthalide in patients with severe cerebral infarction.

Material And Methods: From February 2018 to March 2019, 100 patients with severe cerebral infarction in Rongcheng People's Hospital were recruited and randomly divided into two groups, i.e.

Different Patterns of Functional Connectivity Alterations Within the Default-Mode Network and Sensorimotor Network in Basal Ganglia and Pontine Stroke.

BACKGROUND The aim of this study was to investigate whether patients with basal ganglia stroke and patients with pontine stroke have different types of functional connectivity (FC) alterations in the early chronic phase. MATERIAL AND METHODS We included 14 patients with pontine stroke, 17 patients with basal ganglia stroke, and 20 well-matched healthy controls (HCs). All of them underwent resting-state functional magnetic resonance imaging (rs-fMRI) scanning.
