Background: Few studies have examined the relationships between the prevalence of chronic kidney disease (CKD) and the metabolic risk factors in a developing country such as China, where genetic and environmental backgrounds differ from those in Western countries.

Methods: The subjects of this cross-sectional study were the individuals from 18 to 92y. The metabolic syndrome (MetS) was defined based on the criteria of Adult Treatment Panel Third Report (ATP III), but using body mass index (BMI) instead of waist circumference. CKD was defined as decreased estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR<60mL/min/1.73m) or presence of proteinuria (urine protein≥1+) assessed using dipstick method.

Results: A total of 26,601 subjects (average age of 48.7y) were analyzed. Among them, the prevalence of the MetS and CKD was 36.4% and 3.0%, respectively. After adjustment for age, gender, cigarette smoking and alcohol drinking, the prevalence of CKD was significantly greater in subjects with than without MetS (OR 1.99, 95% CI 1.57-2.53, p<0.001). Multivariate-adjusted odd ratios for CKD in subjects with 3, 4 or 5 MetS components were 1.82 (95% CI 1.31-2.52, p<0.001), 2.92 (95% CI 2.09-4.09, p<0.001), and 3.07 (95% CI 1.67-5.67, p<0.001), respectively. After further adjustments were made for the other components of MetS, only high fasting glucose (OR 1.52, 95% CI 1.12-2.05) were significant risk factors for reduced renal function(eGFR<60mL/min/1.73m). High blood pressure (OR 1.81, 95% CI 1,42-2.29), high triglycerides (OR 1.34, 95% CI 1.11-1.67) and high fasting glucose (OR 2.07, 95% CI 1.62-2.66) were significant risk factors for proteinuria.

Conclusions: MetS was highly prevalent in the middle-aged and elderly Chinese population in the city of Jinan. There was a graded relationship between the number of MetS components and risk of CKD. High fasting blood glucose levels were the main risk factor of reduced renal function. High blood pressure, high fasting blood glucose levels and high triglycerides were main risk factors for proteinuria.

Introduction: Hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) disproportionately affects Hispanic persons with higher age-specific incidence and increased mortality rates compared to non-Hispanic Whites. These high rates of incidence and mortality may be explained by the variation in risk factors. Given the high prevalence of type 2 diabetes mellitus (DM) among the Hispanic population, we aimed to assess the risk and prognosis of HCC in Mexican Americans with type 2 DM with consideration of treatment for DM.

Sleep is a fundamental phenomenon that helps maintain normal physiological processes. Conversely, sleep disorders, usually presented as insomnia, are a common public health problem that can lead to multiple pathophysiological changes in humans, including lipid metabolic abnormality. Interestingly, several previous studies have examined the potential relation of insomnia to metabolic syndrome and hyperlipidemia and found that insomnia was associated with elevated plasma cholesterol and triglyceride concentrations.

Metabolic dysfunction-associated fatty liver disease (MAFLD) is a growing global health concern which is driven by the increasing prevalence of diabetes and obesity. MAFLD is characterized by excessive fat accumulation in the liver, which encompasses a range of conditions, from simple hepatic steatosis to more severe forms. This condition is associated with various complications, including chronic kidney disease (CKD), Cardiovascular Disease (CVD), liver cirrhosis, and even malignancy.

Antiandrogen therapies are effectively used to treat advanced prostate cancer, but eventually cancer adaptation drives unresolved metastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer (mCRPC). Adipose tissue influences metabolic reprogramming in cancer and was proposed as a contributor to therapy resistance. Using extracellular matrix (ECM)-mimicking hydrogel coculture models of human adipocytes and prostate cancer cells, we show that adipocytes from subcutaneous or bone marrow fat have dissimilar responses under the antiandrogen Enzalutamide.
