Article Synopsis
  • Cardiovascular disease (CVD) is a major global health issue, making it essential to find biomarkers that can detect it early in healthy people to enhance preventive measures and improve overall health outcomes.
  • Various biomarkers, such as atherogenic lipoproteins and inflammatory markers like C-reactive protein (CRP), have shown connections to CVD risk factors, aiding in risk prediction when combined with traditional indicators.
  • Emerging biomarkers like myeloperoxidase (MPO) and procalcitonin (PCT) are being explored for their potential in early detection of systemic infections, emphasizing the importance of identifying the best biomarker combinations for effective diagnosis and risk assessment.

Background: Benign Paroxysmal Positional Vertigo (BPPV) is the most common cause of peripheral vertigo, with frequent recurrence, particularly pronounced among middle-aged and elderly populations, significantly affecting patients' quality of life. This study aimed to identify predictive factors for recurrence in middle-aged and older patients with BPPV and to develop a nomogram prediction model based on these predictors.

Methods: This retrospective study included 582 participants aged ≥45 years who were selected from the electronic medical records system of the First Hospital of Changsha between March 2021 and March 2024.

Background: Cerebral Microbleeds (CMBs) serve as critical indicators of cerebral small vessel disease and are strongly associated with severe neurological disorders, including cognitive impairments, stroke, and dementia. Despite the importance of diagnosing and preventing CMBs, there is a significant lack of effective predictive tools in clinical settings, hindering comprehensive assessment and timely intervention.

Objective: This study aims to develop a robust predictive model for CMBs by integrating a broad range of clinical and laboratory parameters, enhancing early diagnosis and risk stratification.

The relationship between serum uric acid and homocysteine is influenced by kidney function.

Nutr Metab Cardiovasc Dis

November 2024

Department of Endocrinology, The Second Affiliated Hospital of Shandong University of Traditional Chinese Medicine, Jinan, Shandong, 250001, People's Republic of China. Electronic address:

Background And Aim: Prior research has established a relationship between homocysteine (Hcy) and serum uric acid (SUA) levels; however, the precise mechanisms underlying this association remain unclear. The objective of this research was to explore the correlation between SUA and Hcy and to evaluate the possible role of kidney function as a mediator in the connection between SUA and Hcy.

Methods And Results: Consecutive enrollment of 16870 participants aged 20-60 years was conducted at the Third Xiangya Hospital of Central South University.
