Background: The association between serum uric acid (SUA) and dyslipidaemia is still unclear in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM). This study aimed to examine the association between SUA and dyslipidaemia and to explore whether there is an optimal SUA level corresponding to the lower risk of suffering from dyslipidaemia.
Research Design And Methods: This cross-sectional study included 1036 inpatients with T2DM and the clinical data were extracted from the hospital medical records. Multivariate logistic regression analysis was performed to assess the association between hyperuricaemia and dyslipidaemia. Restricted cubic splines (RCS) analysis was performed to determine the optimal SUA level for the lower risk of dyslipidaemia.
Results: After adjustment for the potential confounders, hyperuricaemia was significantly associated with dyslipidaemia (OR=3.72, 95% CI: 2.28, 6.07) and hypertriglyceridaemia (OR=2.63, 95% CI: 1.68, 4.12). Notably, mediation analysis revealed a significant mediating effect of SUA in this relationship (indirect effect=0.08, p<0.001), elucidating 20.1% of the total relationship.
Conclusions: Hyperuricaemia was positively associated with dyslipidaemia and hypertriglyceridaemia. SUA mediated the effect of insulin resistance on triglyceride metabolism in patients with T2DM. A potential benefit of stricter control of SUA levels among patients with T2DM is possibly reducing the risk of dyslipidaemia.

Background: Microwave ablation is a new, minimally invasive technique for the treatment of thyroid nodules. Hyperthyroidism due to destructive thyroiditis is a known risk of microwave ablation, though it occurs in only a minority of cases. We report a rare case of a patient diagnosed with Graves' disease nearly six months after undergoing microwave ablation of a thyroid nodule.

Background: Pediatric CNS infections have been identified as a global health problem, associated with an increased death rate and fatal consequences. Pentraxin 3 (PTX3) is an acute-phase mediator that increases in body fluids and plasma throughout inflammation. Our study was designed to assess the diagnostic and prognostic value of cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) PTX3 levels in pediatric patients with different central nervous system (CNS) infections.

Background: Reduced Bone Mineral Density (BMD) has been linked to Human Immunodeficiency Virus (HIV) infection and treatment. There is a lack of information regarding the osteoporosis status of middle-aged patients with HIV in Iran, despite the fact that Antiretroviral Therapy (ART) is widely accessible.
Objective: The purpose of this cross-sectional study was to assess the BMD status and low BMD risk factors in patients with HIV under ART living in Iran.
