Background: The occurrence of adverse events after immunochemotherapy in patients with diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL) frequently affects the course of chemotherapy, leading to a further decline in quality of life and survival.

Objectives: The primary objective of this study was to investigate the association between Chinese visceral adiposity index (CVAI), lipid accumulation product (LAP) index and skeletal muscle mass index (SMI) at initial diagnosis and the risk of haematological toxicity following immunochemotherapy in patients with DLBCL.

Design: Retrospective, single-centre study.

Methods: CVAI, LAP and SMI were calculated by combining clinical data of the patients. This study included 213 patients, of whom 117 (55%) patients experienced grades 3-4 haematological toxicity after immunochemotherapy. Participants were divided into four groups (Q1, Q2, Q3, Q4) based on the quartiles of CVAI, LAP and SMI.

Results: In the fully adjusted model, the risk of grades 3-4 haematological toxicity in group with the highest CVAI and LAP was reduced by 75.1% (OR: 0.249, 95% CI: 0.102-0.606, = 0.002) and by 77.3% (OR: 0.227, 95% CI: 0.095-0.542, = 0.001) compared to the group with the lowest CVAI and LAP. For SMI, the risk of grades 3-4 haematological toxicities in the group with the highest SMI was reduced by 62.9% compared with the lowest SMI group in the unadjusted model. The multivariable-adjusted restricted cubic spline curves and subgroup interaction analyses further confirmed the robustness of these findings.

Conclusion: The results indicate that DLBCL patients with relatively high CVAI, LAP and SMI at initial diagnosis have a lower risk of severe haematological toxicity following chemotherapy. Therefore, CVAI, LAP and SMI at initial diagnosis are reliable and effective biomarkers for predicting severe haematological toxicity after immunochemotherapy in DLBCL patients.

Trial Registration: This is a retrospective study, and no registration on ClinicalTrials.gov.

Assessment of six surrogate insulin resistance indexes for predicting hypertension risk in rural Chinese adults.

Hypertens Res

February 2025

Department of Epidemiology and Biostatistics, College of Public Health, Zhengzhou University, Zhengzhou, Henan, PR China.

Insulin resistance (IR) is a complex abnormality and associated with hypertension. We aimed to assess the associations of six alternate IR measures and risk of hypertension, and to compare the predictive values for hypertension. We assessed 11,223 non-hypertensive Chinese adults enrolled in The Rural Chinese Cohort Study during 2007-2008.

Background: Given the established link between obesity and hyperuricemia (HUA), the research want to investigate the relationship between different obesity indices and HUA, and further analyze which obesity index can better predict HUA.

Methods: The data were obtained from a longitudinal study involving middle-aged and elderly populations in Dalian, China. The research encompassed individuals who exhibited typical uric acid levels initially and tracked their progress over a three-year period.

The Chinese visceral adiposity index: a novel indicator more closely related to cardiovascular disease than other abdominal obesity indices among postmenopausal women.

Background: Several abdominal obesity indices including waist circumference (WC), waist-hip ratio (WHR), visceral adiposity index (VAI), lipid accumulation product (LAP), and Chinese visceral adiposity index (CVAI) were considered effective and useful predictive markers for cardiovascular disease (CVD) in general populations or diabetic populations. However, studies investigating the associations between these indices among postmenopausal women are limited. Our study aimed to investigate the associations of the five indices with incident CVD and compare the predictive performance of CVAI with other abdominal obesity indices among postmenopausal women.
