Objective: Transcutaneous oxygen pressure (TcPO2) is used to assess microcirculation clinically; however, it is not widely available especially in rural hospital. The study was designed to explore potential alternatively biomarkers to assess microcirculation in diabetic kidney disease (DKD).
Methods: A total of 404 patients from Xuzhou first hospital were recruited according to the case records system. Patients were grouped via the ratio of albuminuria and creatinine (ACR; <30 mg/g, 30-300 mg/g, >300 mg/g). Biomarkers in different ACR groups were compared by analysis of variance. Correlation analysis was determined by Pearson or Spearman analysis and binary logistic regression. The receiver operating characteristics (ROC) curve was performed to elucidate the prediction effect of ACR on TcPO2.
Results: A total of 404 diabetic patients were recruited with 248 patients diagnosed as DKD and 156 non-DKDs. Age and cystatin C were significantly higher in the ACR3 group compared with those in the ACR1 group, whereas glomerular filtration rate, low-density lipoprotein cholesterol, and TcPO2 were markedly decreased in the ACR3 group (p < .05). Frequency of low TcPO2 (<40 mm Hg) was markedly increased as increment of ACR stages with 30.2% in the ACR3 group (p < .01). There was a negative correlation between TcPO2 and age, ACR, chronic kidney disease (CKD), fast blood glucose, diabetes mellitus (DM) duration, and diabetic neuropathy. Further, binary logistic regression showed ACR was an independent influence factor for low TcPO2. After adjusting for age, gender, hypertension, DM duration, body mass index, glycated hemoglobin, diabetic neuropathy, and CKD, ACR was still an independent influence factor for TcPO2 (odds ratio = 2.464, p < .01). The area under the ROC curve was 0.768 (95% confidence interval: 0.700-0.836, p < .001) for ACR. The analysis of ROC curves revealed a best cutoff for ACR was 75.25 mg/g and yielded a sensitivity of 71.7% and a specificity of 71.7%.
Conclusions: ACR could be used as an alternative biomarker for assessing microcirculation in DKD patients.

Introduction: Obesity and its complications are associated with high morbidity/mortality and a significant healthcare cost burden in Spain. It is therefore essential to know the potential clinical and economic benefits of reducing obesity. The objective of this study is to predict the decrease in rates of onset of potential complications associated with obesity and the cost savings after a weight loss of 15% over 10 years in Spain.

Type 2 diabetes (T2D) is a progressive metabolic disorder that could be an underlying cause of long-term complications that increase mortality. The assessment of the probability of such events could be essential for mortality risk management. This work aimed to establish a framework for risk predictions of macrovascular complications (MVC) and diabetic kidney disease (DKD) in patients with T2D, using real-world data from the Swedish National Diabetes Registry (NDR), in the presence of mortality as a competing risk.

Aims: Studies evaluating the relationship between adverse pregnancy outcomes (APOs), namely hypertensive disorders of pregnancy (HDP) and gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM), with the estimated risk of atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease (ASCVD) remains limited and could inform patient-centred decision-making in the postpartum period. We examined whether HDP or GDM were associated with a higher 10- and 30-year predicted risk of ASCVD measured 10-14 years after delivery.
Methods: A secondary analysis from the international prospective Hyperglycemia and Adverse Pregnancy Outcome Follow-up Study (2013-2016) cohort.
Background: This study aimed to explore the clinical and pathological features of patients with diabetic kidney disease (DKD), with and without non-diabetic kidney disease (NDKD), through a retrospective analysis. The objective was to provide clinical insights for accurate identification.
Methods: A retrospective analysis of 235 patients admitted to the Department of Nephrology at Hangzhou Hospital of Traditional Chinese Medicine was conducted between July 2014 and December 2022.

Chronic kidney disease (CKD) is a global health challenge associated with lifestyle factors such as diet, alcohol, BMI, smoking, sleep, and physical activity. Metabolomics, especially nuclear magnetic resonance(NMR), offers insights into metabolic profiles' role in diseases, but more research is needed on its connection to CKD and lifestyle factors. Therefore, we utilized the latest metabolomics data from the UK Biobank to explore the relationship between plasma metabolites and lifestyle factors, as well as to investigate the associations between various factors, including lifestyle-related metabolites, and the latent phase of CKD onset.
