Many inflammation-based markers (IBMs) have been shown to be closely related to coronary slow flow (CSF), but the effect of the uric acid/albumin ratio (UAR) on CSF and its relationship with other IBMs are not clearly known. In this study, we aimed to compare the effects of UAR and other IBMs on CSF. After the exclusion criteria, 126 patients with CSF detected on coronary angiography and 126 subjects with normal coronary flow as the control group were included in the study. UAR was determined as an independent predictor for CSF. In addition, the UAR was superior to other IBMs in detecting CSF (p < 0.05 for all). This study is the first to investigate the effect of UAR on CSF in comparison with other IBMs.

Introduction: China has the largest population of individuals with diabetes, and the prevalence of various complications among patients with type 2 diabetes remains high. Diabetic nephropathy affects approximately 20% to 40% of diabetic patients, becoming a major cause of chronic kidney disease and end-stage renal disease. Furthermore, around 50% of patients develop diabetic peripheral neuropathy (DPN), which is closely associated with physical disability, increased healthcare costs, and reduced work productivity.

Objective: This study aims to investigate the diagnostic, biochemical, and hematological characteristics of patients with gouty arthritis and analyze their correlations with baseline characteristics to guide clinical practice, develop personalized treatment strategies, and improve patient outcomes.

Methods: A single-center retrospective analysis was conducted on 8,344 patients with acute gouty arthritis admitted to our hospital between January 2014 and December 2023. Baseline characteristics and laboratory data, including uric acid, blood glucose, triglycerides, total cholesterol, low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C), high-density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL-C), alanine aminotransferase (ALT), aspartate aminotransferase (AST), creatinine, erythrocyte sedimentation rate (ESR), high-sensitivity C-reactive protein (hs-CRP), C-reactive protein (CRP), white blood cell count, neutrophil count, lymphocyte count, monocyte count, fibrinogen, and serum albumin, were collected.

Purpose: To investigate the role of hematological and atherogenic biomarkers in evaluating systemic inflammation and cardiovascular risk in patients with pseudoexfoliation syndrome.

Methods: This retrospective study included 200 patients, 90 with pseudoexfoliation (PEX) syndrome (Group 1) and 110 healthy controls (Group 2). Twelve-hour fasting blood samples were collected to measure complete blood count, neutrophil/lymphocyte ratio (NLR), monocyte/lymphocyte ratio (MLR), platelet/lymphocyte ratio (PLR), systemic immune-inflammation index (SII) (neutrophil x platelet/lymphocyte), systemic inflammatory response index (SIRI) (neutrophil x monocyte/lymphocyte), pan-immune inflammation value (PIV) (neutrophil x platelet x monocyte/lymphocyte), C-reactive protein (CRP), uric acid, glucose, triglycerides (TG), total cholesterol, HDL, LDL, non-HDL, and triglyceride-glucose (TyG) index (Ln (TG [mg/dL] × glucose [mg/dL]/2)).

Division of Rheumatology, Department of Pediatrics, Faculty of Medicine Siriraj Hospital, Mahidol University, 2 Wanglang Road, Bangkoknoi, Bangkok, 10700, Thailand.

Background: Childhood-onset systemic lupus erythematosus (cSLE) is associated with significant morbidity and mortality. Dyslipidemia and metabolic syndrome are recognized risk factors for premature atherosclerosis. This study aimed to determine the prevalence of dyslipidemia and metabolic syndrome, and to explore the relationships between lipid profiles, anthropometry, and disease status in cSLE.
