AI Article Synopsis

  • The study aimed to assess how well changes in metabolic syndrome (MS) and fasting plasma glucose (FPG) can predict the risk of developing Type 2 Diabetes (T2DM) over time.
  • A cohort of 3,461 participants was followed for 3.8 years, using statistical methods to determine the predictive abilities of different indicators related to T2DM.
  • The findings revealed that the change in FPG was the most effective predictor of T2DM, significantly outperforming baseline measurements of FPG and MS in identifying at-risk individuals.

Article Abstract

Background: The aim was to compare the predictive power for Type 2 Diabetes mellitus (T2DM) using dynamic change (Difference) of metabolic syndrome (MS), Difference of fasting plasma glucose (FPG), baseline MS and FPG in cohort study.

Methods: Overall, 3461 subjects were recruited from Prevention of Multiple Metabolic disorders and MS in Jiangsu of China Study with 3.8 years follow-up. Cox proportional-hazards regression and receiver operating characteristic were used to evaluate the predictive power for T2DM using Difference MS, Difference of FPG, baseline MS and FPG.

Results: Adjusted relative risk (aRR 5.24, 95% CI 4.28-6.42) of Difference of FPG to T2DM was highest than other. Difference of FPG owns the largest AUC (0.89, P<0.05), the highest sensitivity (96.25%) and specificity (80.49%) demonstrating that Difference of FPG can provide strongest predictive information to T2DM, Difference of MS comes second. Between FPG related tools, sensitivity of Difference of FPG almost was twice than baseline FPG(96.25% vs. 54.38%) suggesting that using baseline FPG would missed found 46% T2DM patients. Among MS related indicators, sensitivity of Difference of MS almost was twice than baseline MS (sensitivity 66.25% vs. 39.38%) suggesting that using baseline would missed found 61% T2DM patients.

Conclusion: Dynamic change of FPG had the highest predictive power for T2DM in Chinese than Dynamic Change of MS, baseline MS and FPG.

The association of muscle weakness with poor outcomes is well defined in general older population, but there is insufficient data on the association of muscle weakness with functionality in older patients with diabetes mellitus (DM). We aimed to investigate the predictivity of muscle weakness defined as low grip strength thresholds determined by EWGSOP2, and two regional thresholds in older patients with DM for functional disability. Activities of Daily Living (ADL), Instrumental ADL (IADL), grip strength, comorbidities, anthropometric and biochemical data from outpatient clinic medical records were screened retrospectively.

Electrochemical energy storage and conversion play increasingly important roles in electrification and sustainable development across the globe. A key challenge therein is to understand, control, and design electrochemical energy materials with atomistic precision. This requires inputs from molecular modeling powered by machine learning (ML) techniques.

Background: Early allograft dysfunction (EAD) affects outcomes in liver transplantation (LT). Existing risk models developed for deceased-donor LT depend on posttransplant factors and fall short in living-donor LT (LDLT), where pretransplant evaluations are crucial for preventing EAD and justifying the donor's risks.

Methods: This retrospective study analyzed data from 2944 adult patients who underwent LDLT at 17 centers between 2016 and 2020.

Percutaneous superficial femoral interventions remain the preferred method of treatment for superficial femoral artery (SFA) disease. Nevertheless, long term restenosis continues to be a major limitation of percutaneous interventions. In this context, the objective of this study is to compare the efficacies of CHA2DS2-VASc, CHA2DS2-VASc-HS, ATRIA, ATRIA-HSV, and HATCH risk scoring systems in predicting long-term (5 years) restenosis due to percutaneous interventions to the superficial femoral artery.

Introduction: Predicting competitive alpine skiing performance using conventional statistical methods has proven challenging. Many studies assessing the relationship between physiological performance and skiing outcomes have employed statistical methods of questionable validity. Furthermore, the reliance on Fédération Internationale de Ski (FIS) points as a performance outcome variable presents additional limitations due to its potential unreliability in reflecting short-term, sport-specific performance.
