Aims/introduction: To investigate the predictive value of the biliverdin reductase-A (BVR-A) and the homeostasis model assessment for insulin resistance (HOMA-IR) on mild cognitive impairment (MCI) in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus, and to establish a nomogram model.
Materials And Methods: This study included 140 patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus. Based on Montreal Cognitive Assessment (MoCA) scores, participants were categorized into the normal cognitive function (T2DM-NCF) group (65 cases) and the mild cognitive impairment (T2DM-MCI) group (75 cases). Multivariate logistic regression analysis was performed to identify the factors associated with MCI in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus. A nomogram prediction model was developed using R software for the selected factors, and its predictability and accuracy were verified.
Results: Compared with the T2DM-NCF group, subjects with MCI were older, had a longer duration of diabetes, higher HOMA-IR, lower BVR-A, lower cognitive scores, and lower education levels (all P < 0.05). Multivariate logistic regression analysis showed that duration of diabetes (OR = 1.407, 95% CI: 1.163-1.701), HOMA-IR (OR = 1.741, 95% CI: 1.197-2.53), and BVR-A (OR = 0.528, 95% CI: 0.392-0.712) were significantly associated with the development of MCI in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus. The C-index of the nomogram was 0.863 (95% CI: 0.752-0.937).
Conclusions: Our findings suggest that BVR-A and HOMA-IR are significantly associated with the development of MCI in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus. The nomogram incorporating BVR-A and HOMA-IR aids in predicting the risk of developing MCI in these patients.

Type A Aortic Dissection Following Abdominal Solid Organ Transplantation: Population-Level Outcomes in the United States.

Background: This study aims to analyze the patient characteristics, clinical outcomes, and contemporary trends concerning type A aortic dissection (TAAD) in previous recipients of abdominal solid organ transplantation (ASOT) in the United States.
Methods: The National Inpatient Sample was queried to identify all patients aged ≥18 with TAAD and a history of ASOT (TAAD-ASOT) between 2002 and 2015Q3 using ICD-9 diagnosis and procedure codes. Baseline characteristics and in-hospital outcomes were compared between TAAD-ASOT patients and TAAD patients without a history of ASOT (TAAD-non-ASOT).
Genetic factors contribute to the development of metabolic syndrome and subsequent arterial hypertension (AH). The study of the T786C polymorphism of the endothelial nitric oxide synthase (eNOS) gene in arterial hypertension is important as its correlation with adipokine imbalance is a novelty area to find associations between hypertension development, obesity, and heredity. The purpose of the current study was to investigate serum adipokines levels, depending on the T786C polymorphism of the eNOS in patients with arterial hypertension.

The CD2-depleting drug alefacept (LFA3-Ig) preserved beta cell function in new-onset type 1 diabetes (T1D) patients. The most promising biomarkers of response were late expansion of exhausted CD8 T cells and rare baseline inflammatory islet-reactive CD4 T cells, neither of which can be used to measure responses to drug in the weeks after treatment. Thus, we investigated whether early changes in T cell immunophenotypes could serve as biomarkers of drug activity.

Objectives: This study evaluates a staged selective hybrid approach for acute type A aortic dissection. The approach involves a zone 2 aortic arch replacement with debranching of the brachiocephalic trunk and left common carotid artery to create a landing zone for thoracic endovascular aortic repair. This repair is performed either preemptively in the subacute phase to promote remodelling or electively in the chronic phase to manage aneurysm formation.

Introduction: Insurance type can result in disparities in access to specialist orthopaedic care. Here, we sought to quantify how insurance type affects time to surgery in patients with a distal radius fracture that needs surgical treatment.
Methods: A retrospective cohort study of patients ≥18 years with surgically managed, closed distal radius fractures was conducted.
