Aims/introduction: To investigated the association between serum asprosin and metabolic characteristics in type 2 diabetes mellitus patients with different durations.
Materials And Methods: A total of 436 patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus were enrolled in this study from the community health service center in southeastern Shanxi Province. All the patients were divided into two groups according to their diabetes duration: diabetes duration ≤5 years group (n = 132) and diabetes duration ≥10 years group (n = 304). Fasting blood samples were gathered and serum asprosin was tested. Pearson/Spearman correlation analysis was carried out.
Results: Asprosin was comparable between the two groups. Asprosin was positively correlated with systolic blood pressure (SBP), triglycerides, creatinine, serum uric acid and low-density lipoprotein cholesterol in the diabetes duration ≤5 years group (P < 0.05). In the diabetes duration ≥10 years group, asprosin was independently correlated with SBP, diastolic blood pressure, body mass index, total cholesterol, triglycerides, low-density lipoprotein cholesterol, creatinine, serum uric acid, fasting plasma glucose and glycosylated hemoglobin (P < 0.05). Asprosin was associated with alanine aminotransferase and estimated glomerular filtration rate (P < 0.05). Multiple linear regression analysis found that SBP and diastolic blood pressure is an independent factor related to serum asprosin in the group with diabetes duration ≤5 years (P < 0.05). Fasting plasma glucose, SBP, total cholesterol and serum uric acid is an independent factor related to serum asprosin in the group with diabetes duration ≥10 years (P < 0.05).
Conclusions: Serum asprosin was significantly increased in the group with diabetes duration ≥10 years, and glycosylated hemoglobin, blood pressure and estimated glomerular filtration rate were independent risk factors in long-duration type 2 diabetes mellitus.

Background: Craniopharyngioma (CP), a benign tumor originating from remnants of Rathke's pouch in the sellar region, accounts for approximately 30% of all cases of craniopharyngioma. Radiation therapy has been used to treat CP patients for decades; however, there is still a lack of systematic reviews on the long-term tumor control outcomes in pediatric CP patients treated with external radiation therapy.
Methods: We conducted a comprehensive search of multiple databases for studies on the tumor progression rates of childhood-onset CP(COCP) patients who received external radiotherapy.

Background: Cognitive Reserve(CR) a concept based on the brain plasticity, is a mechanism that delays or minimizes clinical manifestations of brain changes due to aging. Prospective epidemiologic studies non-demented individuals have shown that education, occupational duration and complexity, and greater lifetime engagement in cognitively stimulating activities are associated with a reduced risk of dementia. We study the cognitive reserve and its neuroimaging correlate.

Convincing evidence for the efficacy of ablation as first-line therapy in paroxysmal AF (PAF) and its clear superiority to medical therapy for rhythm control in both PAF and persistent AF (PsAF) has generated considerable interest in the optimal timing of ablation. Based on this data, there is a widespread view that the principle of 'the earlier the better' should be generally applied. However, the natural history of AF is highly variable and non-linear, and for this reason, it is difficult to be emphatic that all patients are best served by ablation early after their initial AF episodes.

Pemphigus vulgaris is a chronic autoimmune blistering disease with significant morbidity. Rituximab, approved as its first-line treatment, effectively induces remission. However, few studies have analysed the prognostic factors for improved rituximab outcomes.

Objectives: To examine the association between the age at onset of diabetes and the risk of all-cause mortality in a population of individuals diagnosed with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) and to identify risk factors associated with all-cause mortality in young-onset T2DM (YOD) patients in China.
Methods: This study utilized a cohort of 9759 patients who were diagnosed with T2DM and who were registered and enrolled in the National Basic Public Health Service Management Program in Qinghe District (now Qingjiangpu District) and Huai'an District, Huai'an City, Jiangsu Province, China. The patients were observed from November 2013 to July 2014, and all-cause mortality data were obtained by comprehensive matching with the Huai'an City Resident Mortality Database as of December 31, 2019.
