Background: Diabetes mellitus (DM) is a metabolic disorder with increasing prevalence and poor control rates, leading to adverse events. Prognostic nutritional value (PNI) has been identified as a protective factor in DM, but its role in uncontrolled DM remains unclear.
Methods: This study based on the representative cohort of National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey from 2005 to 2018. A total of 3,313 participants with uncontrolled DM were included in our analyses. PNI was calculated as 5×lymphocyte count (10/L)+ 10×serum albumin (g/L). The endpoints were DM-related and cardiovascular mortality, which were obtained from National Death Index. Univariable and multivariable cox proportional hazard regression were performed to investigate prognostic value of PNI.
Results: Among 3,313 patients with uncontrolled DM (mean age of 61.75 ± 12.78 years, 53.4% male), PNI level was negatively associated with inflammatory markers and positively associated with metabolic markers of lipid and protein. During a median follow-up of 77 months, 247 DM-related deaths and 205 cardiovascular deaths occurred. Higher PNI levels independently predicted low DM-related (adjusted Hazard ratio [HR] = 0.872, 95% confidence interval [CI] 0.840-0.906, P < 0.001) and cardiovascular mortality (adjusted HR = 0.872, 95% CI 0.834-0.912, P < 0.001). The prognostic value of PNI significantly varied across different DM treatment conditions, which was more pronounced in patients receiving antidiabetic treatments (adjusted HR: insulin + oral antidiabetic drugs [OADs]: 0.832; insulin: 0.863; OADs: 0.894, all adjusted P < 0.001), but was absent in those without antidiabetic treatment.
Conclusions: A higher PNI level is an independent protective predictor for DM-related and cardiovascular mortality in uncontrolled DM patients. Evaluation of PNI level in uncontrolled DM patients could conduce to stringent intervention. Improvement of PNI could enhance the effective of antidiabetic therapy, especially the insulin therapy, and reduce DM-related mortality.

The discovery of RET mutations in Multiple Endocrine Neoplasia 2A (MEN2A) in 1993 ignited a revolution in our understanding of this versatile receptor. Since then, RET's influence has expanded to encompass diverse organs, including the pituitary gland. This review explores the multifaceted role of RET in somatotrophs, focusing on two opposing pathways: proliferation versus differentiation and apoptosis.

Background: With ageing and lifestyle changes, the coexistence of osteoporosis and type 2 diabetes (T2DM) is becoming more common, which greatly increases patient disability and mortality. However, the association of low bone mineral density (BMD) with cardiovascular disease (CVD) and all-cause mortality in T2DM patients have not been conclusively established.
Methods: Using the National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (NHANES) to obtain a nationally representative sample of the US population, we sought to determine the independent and incremental value of low BMD, particularly in patients with osteoporosis in assessing all-cause and CVD mortality in adults with T2DM.

Introduction: Ductal carcinoma (DCIS) accounts for 25% of newly diagnosed breast cancer cases with only 14%-53% developing into invasive ductal carcinoma (IDC), but currently overtreated due to inadequate accuracy of mammography. Subtypes of calcification, discernible from histology, has been suggested to have prognostic value in DCIS, while the lipid composition of saturated and unsaturated fatty acids may be altered in synthesis with potential sensitivity to the difference between DCIS and IDC. We therefore set out to examine calcification using ultra short echo time (UTE) MRI and lipid composition using chemical shift-encoded imaging (CSEI), as markers for histological calcification classification, in the initial step towards application.

Background: With the advent of improved chemotherapy options, neoadjuvant chemotherapy has gained acceptance as a multidisciplinary treatment approach for localized pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma. This study aimed to clarify whether neoadjuvant chemotherapy with gemcitabine and S-1 influences preoperative nutritional status and postoperative outcomes, particularly in patients undergoing highly invasive pancreatic resection.
Methods: Patients with resectable pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma who underwent pancreaticoduodenectomy as upfront surgery or after neoadjuvant chemotherapy with gemcitabine and S-1 between January 2015 and December 2022 were assessed.
