Objectives: The aim of this study was to investigate the metabolomic profile of acute myocardial ischemia (MIS) using nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy of peripheral blood serum of swine and patients undergoing angioplasty balloon-induced transient coronary occlusion.

Background: Biochemical detection of MIS is a major challenge. The validation of novel biosignatures is of utmost importance.

Methods: High-resolution nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy was used to profile 32 blood serum metabolites obtained (before and after controlled ischemia) from swine (n = 9) and patients (n = 20) undergoing transitory MIS in the setting of planned coronary angioplasty. Additionally, blood serum of control patients (n = 10) was sequentially profiled. Preliminary clinical validation of the developed metabolomic biosignature was undertaken in patients with spontaneous acute chest pain (n = 30).

Results: Striking differences were detected in the blood profiles of swine and patients immediately after MIS. MIS induced early increases (10 min) of circulating glucose, lactate, glutamine, glycine, glycerol, phenylalanine, tyrosine, and phosphoethanolamine; decreases in choline-containing compounds and triacylglycerols; and a change in the pattern of total, esterified, and nonesterified fatty acids. Creatine increased 2 h after ischemia. Using multivariate analyses, a biosignature was developed that accurately detected patients with MIS both in the setting of angioplasty-related MIS (area under the curve 0.94) and in patients with acute chest pain (negative predictive value 95%).

Conclusions: This study reports, to the authors' knowledge, the first metabolic biosignature of acute MIS developed under highly controlled coronary flow restriction. Metabolic profiling of blood plasma appears to be a promising approach for the early detection of MIS in patients.

Little is known about the impact of environmental pollution on thyroid function in the non-occupationally exposed population of Kazakhstan. This study aimed to investigate serum levels of thyroxine (T4), thyroid-stimulating hormone (TSH), and anti-thyroid peroxidase (TPO) antibodies in the environmentally exposed population of Kazakhstan in relation to symptoms of anxiety. A total of 1,388 nominally healthy individuals residing in areas exposed to three major types of environmental pollution prevalent in Kazakhstan-non-ferrous metallurgy, condensate gas extraction, and activities of the Semipalatinsk Nuclear Test Site (SNTS)-were enrolled.

Extensive research on COVID-19 has revealed a notable link between the disease and thyroid disorders, highlighting complex interactions between thyroid hormones, immunomodulatory signaling molecules within the thyroid gland, and viral infections. This study evaluated the relationship between thyroid function and COVID-19 in Iraqi patients at Adiwaniyah Teaching Hospital. The cohort for this investigation comprised all patients who were admitted to the isolation center at the Teaching Hospital during the timeframe extending from January 2024 to June 2024.

Prostate cancer is the most common type after the age of fifty. It affects males and affects the prostate gland, which protects the function of sperm by producing semen. The current study was designed to evaluate prostate cancer infection effects on some biomarkers such as irisin, Tumor necrosis factor-TNF-α, prostate acid phosphates -PAP, Glutathione-GSH, malondialdehyde-MDA, urea, and creatinine.

Renal fibrosis (RF) is a crucial pathological factor in the progression of chronic kidney disease (CKD) to end-stage renal failure, and accurate and noninvasive assays to monitor the progression of renal fibrosis are needed. Circular RNAs (circRNAs) are noncoding RNAs that can be used as diagnostic biomarkers and therapeutic targets for human diseases. In this study, we analysed the expression of hsa_circ_0008925 in human urinary renal tubular cells and investigated its role in renal fibrosis.
