The present study aimed to evaluate the predictive role of inflammatory biomarkers in the development of contrast-induced acute kidney injury (CI-AKI) in acute coronary syndrome (ACS) patients undergoing percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI). The inflammatory biomarkers assessed were: platelet-to-lymphocyte ratio (PLR), monocyte-to-lymphocyte ratio (MLR), neutrophil-to-lymphocyte ratio (NLR), derived neutrophil-to-lymphocyte ratio (dNLR), neutrophil-to-lymphocyte*platelet ratio (NLPR), systemic inflammatory index (SII), and systemic inflammation response index (SIRI). Overall, 950 patients undergoing PCI were enrolled. The frequency of CI-AKI was 15.2% (n = 144). The levels of NLR, MLR, NLPR, SII, and SIRI were higher in the CI-AKI group than in the Non-CI-AKI group (P < .05). The addition of NLR ≥2.96, dNLR ≥2.08, NLPR ≥.012, SII ≥558.04, and SIRI ≥1.13 to the Mehran score model significantly increased the area under the curve (P < .05). Multivariable logistic regression analyses indicated that inflammatory biomarkers were significantly associated with CI-AKI, including NLR ≥2.96 (OR = 1.588, P = .017), dNLR ≥2.08 (OR = 1.686, P = .007), SII ≥558.04 (OR = 1.521, P = .030), and SIRI ≥1.13 (OR = 1.601, P = .017). Therefore, inflammation is associated with the development of CI-AKI, and preoperative hematological inflammatory markers could predict the risk of CI-AKI in ACS patients undergoing PCI.

The pursuit of cutting-edge diagnostic systems capable of detecting biomarkers with exceptional sensitivity and precision is crucial for the timely and accurate monitoring of inflammatory responses. In this study, we introduce a dual gold nanoparticle-enhanced metasurface plasmon resonance (Bi-MSPR) biosensor for the ultrasensitive detection of C-reactive protein (CRP). The Bi-MSPR sensor is constructed upon a nanocup array chip with gradient-free electron density, where an innovative metasurface structure is built using a PEI-immobilized dual-gold nanoparticle amplification system.

Aim: Tissue-invasive bacteria have been proposed to be a crucial factor in the etiopathogenesis of periodontitis, with the probable interaction of tissue-invasive bacteria with the innate immune response through inflammasomes, perpetuating periodontal attachment loss. This study aims to reveal the correlation between such tissue-invasive bacteria in upregulating inflammasomes and pro-inflammatory cytokines.
Materials And Methods: This study recruited a total of 10 patients with stage III/IV and grade C periodontitis based on the bone loss to age ratio.

Salivary gland diseases encompass a broad range of conditions, including autoimmune, inflammatory, obstructive, and neoplastic disorders, significantly impacting oral health and overall well-being. Recent research has highlighted the crucial role of exosomes, small extracellular vesicles, in these diseases. Exosomes mediate intercellular communication by transferring bioactive molecules such as proteins, microRNAs, and lipids, positioning them as potential diagnostic biomarkers and therapeutic agents.

Diabetic cardiomyopathy (DCM) is one of the most prevalent and severe complications associated with diabetes mellitus (DM). The onset of DCM is insidious, with the symptoms being obvious only in the late stage. Consequently, the early diagnosis of DCM is a formidable challenge which significantly influences the treatment and prognosis of DCM.

Nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) is the most prevalent chronic liver condition, characterized by a spectrum that progresses from simple hepatic steatosis to nonalcoholic steatohepatitis, which may eventually lead to cirrhosis and hepatocellular carcinoma. The precise pathogenic mechanisms underlying NAFLD and its related metabolic disturbances remain elusive. Epigenetic modifications, which entail stable transcriptional changes without altering the DNA sequence, are increasingly recognized as pivotal.
