: Study the association of adropin and hypertensive disorders complicating pregnancy (HDCP). : Patients with HDCP were matched with normotensive women (47 pairs). Adropin concentrations were detected by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay. : Compared with the controls, the serum adropin levels were lower in the HDCP group ( < 0.001) and in HDCP subgroups (gestational hypertension, mild preeclampisa, and severe preeclampsia, term, preterm, early onset, and late onset) (all < 0.05). After adjustment for confounders, adropin remained negatively associated with HDCP ( = 0.027). : Lower adropin concentration is significantly associated with HDCP, suggesting that higher or normal adropin levels may be protective against HDCP.

Objective: To construct a nomogram model based on clinical risk factors and CT radiohistological features to predict the prognosis of hypertensive intracerebral hemorrhage (HICH).

Methods: A total of 148 patients with HICH from April 2022 to July 2024 were retrospectively selected as the research subjects. According to the modified Rankin scale at the time of discharge, they were divided into good group (Rankin scale score 0-2) and bad group (Rankin scale score 3-6).

Background: Chronic kidney disease (CKD) is a chief worldwide health concern that has a substantial financial impact on health systems, high rates of mortality and morbidity as well as cardiovascular disease (CVD) is a major cause of mortality in this population. Adropin is a unique hormone encoded by the energy homeostasis-associated (Enho) gene.

Aim Of The Work: We aimed to explore the efficacy of adropin as a diagnostic candidate biomarker for CVD in patients with CKD.

Serum adropin is unaltered in adolescents with histology-confirmed steatotic liver disease.

Section of Diabetes/Endocrinology, Department of Pediatrics, University of Oklahoma Health Sciences Center, Oklahoma City, Oklahoma, USA.

Article Synopsis
  • Recent research indicates that adropin levels in adolescents with metabolic dysfunction-associated steatotic liver disease (MASLD) were not lower than those in adolescents with obesity or normal weight, contrary to previous studies.
  • Adropin levels were found to be 5% to 20% higher in adolescents with MASLD compared to obesity and normal weight controls, and also showed a significant difference between boys and girls.
  • Additionally, while adropin levels were positively correlated with age in the MASLD group, they did not correlate with arterial stiffness or blood pressure, suggesting a more complex relationship with this liver-derived peptide that requires further study.

Introduction: Although contrast-induced (CI) acute kidney injury (AKI) is a common complication in high-risk individuals requiring evaluation with contrast-enhanced angiography, the possible predictors of CI-AKI in patients with obesity are not fully understood. The aim of this study was to elucidate plausible factors associated with the irreversibility of CI-AKI in individuals with obesity undergoing contrast-enhanced computed tomography coronary angiography.

Methods: A total of 96 adult patients with obesity and the KDIGO criteria of CI-AKI (increase of serum levels of creatinine ≥ 25% or ≥ 500 µmol/L at 48 h after procedure) were retrospectively screened from the cohort of 1833 patients who underwent iodine contrast medium (ICM)-enhanced computed tomography coronary angiography, and were included in the study.

Macrophage polarization is increasingly recognized as a vital pathogenetic factor in Crohn's disease (CD). Adropin is a secreted protein implicated in energy homeostasis, chiefly linked to glucose and lipid metabolism. However, the significance of adropin in CD is not clear.
