Rationale & Objective: Malnutrition-inflammation complex syndrome (MICS) is common in patients receiving hemodialysis and increases the risks of morbidity and mortality. However, few studies have examined the overall impact of MICS on disorders of the bone-cardiovascular axis.

Study Design: Prospective, multicenter, observational cohort study.

Setting & Participants: A total of 3,030 patients receiving maintenance hemodialysis registered in the Q-Cohort Study.

Predictors: A newly developed score for MICS composed of elements chosen from 8 baseline parameters related to nutrition and inflammation by bootstrap resampling, multivariable-adjusted Cox proportional hazard risk analysis for all-cause mortality, and the risk prediction rule. β-coefficients of each element analyzed in the multivariable-adjusted model were used for the creation of the MICS score.

Outcomes: Bone fractures, cardiovascular disease events, and the composite outcome of bone fractures and cardiovascular disease events.

Analytical Approach: Cox proportional hazard regression and Fine-Gray proportional subdistribution hazards regression.

Results: During a median follow-up of 4 years, 140 patients developed bone fractures and 539 developed cardiovascular disease events. Age; serum levels of creatinine, albumin, and C-reactive protein; and body mass index were selected for the creation of the MICS score. The median (IQR) MICS score was 196 (181-212). The multivariable-adjusted Cox proportional hazard risk model and the competing risk model showed that a higher MICS score was incrementally associated with elevated risks of bone fractures, cardiovascular disease events, and the composite outcome; hazard risks (95% CIs) of fractures, cardiovascular disease events, and the composite outcome for each 10-point increase in the MICS score were 1.18 (1.01-1.38), 1.16 (1.07-1.26), and 1.15 (1.07-1.24), respectively.

Limitations: One-time measurement of the parameters used for the creation of the MICS score.

Conclusions: Malnutrition and inflammation represented by the MICS score were associated with increased risks of bone-cardiovascular axis disorders in patients receiving maintenance hemodialysis.

Background And Hypothesis: Daprodustat, an oral hypoxia-inducible factor prolyl hydroxylase inhibitor, is approved for treatment of anemia in dialysis patients with CKD in some parts of the world. This subgroup analysis examined the efficacy and safety of daprodustat versus darbepoetin alfa in patients with anemia of CKD undergoing peritoneal dialysis (PD).

Methods: ASCEND-D (NCT02879305) was an open-label, Phase 3 trial; patients with CKD were randomized to daprodustat daily and epoetin alfa (HD patients) or darbepoetin alfa (PD patients).

Prostaglandin E2 (PGE2) plays a crucial role in inflammation. Non-steroidal anti-inflammatory medications are commonly utilized to alleviate pain and address inflammation by blocking the production of PGE2 and cyclooxygenase (COX). However, selective inhibition of COX can easily lead to a series of risks for cardiovascular diseases.

Sedentary lifestyles and prolonged physical inactivity are often linked to poor mental and physical health as well as an increased risk of a number of chronic illnesses, including cancer, obesity, type 2 diabetes, and cardiovascular problems. Metabolic Syndrome (MetS), as the new disease, has emerged as the world's leading cause of illness. Despite having its roots in the West, this issue has now completely globalized due to the development of the Western way of life throughout the world.

Delineating CYP2C19-Mediated Interactions: Network Pharmacology Investigation of Ilaprazole and Clopidogrel versus Conventional Proton Pump Inhibitors.

Curr Drug Discov Technol

Department of Pharmacy Practice, SRM College of Pharmacy, SRM Institute of Science and Technology, Kattankulathur, Chengalpattu District, Tamilnadu, 603203, India.

Background: Clopidogrel, an antiplatelet drug commonly used in cardiovascular disease, is metabolized by the liver mainly through CYP2C19. Concomitant use of Proton pump inhibitors along with clopidogrel may affect the potency of clopidogrel by CYP2C19 inhibition. However, a novel PPI, ilaprazole is known to differ in its pharmacokinetic features, given the potential differences between ilaprazole's interactions and their metabolism with clopidogrel.

Background: Venous thromboembolism (VTE), including pulmonary embolism (PE) and deep vein thrombosis (DVT), is a potentially fatal disease with a multifactorial nature, impacting different medical and surgical specialties. Recently, new guidelines and direct oral anticoagulants facilitated early discharge for most DVT patients and non-severe PE patients.

Objective: The aim of this study is to illustrate the distribution of VTE patients throughout the hospital and map their care pathway from Emergency Department (ED) to hospital discharge.
