Background: Charcot-Marie-Tooth disease (CMT), a slowly advancing hereditary nerve disorder, presents a significant challenge in the medical field. Effective drugs for treatment are lacking, and we struggle to find sensitive markers to track the disease's severity and progression. In this study, our objective was to investigate the levels of neurofilament light chain (NfL), glial fibrillary acid protein (GFAP), fibroblast growth factor 21 (FGF-21) and growth differentiation factor 15 (GDF-15) in individuals with CMT and to compare them to a control group.

Background: /aims. Pseudoxanthoma Elasticum (PXE, OMIM 264800) is an autosomal, recessive, metabolic disorder characterized by progressive ectopic calcification in the skin, the vasculature and Bruch's membrane. Variants in the ABCC6 gene are associated with low plasma pyrophosphate (PPi) concentration.

Purpose: Limited studies have examined the relationship between plasma aldosterone concentration (PAC) and arterial stiffness progression. This study aimed to investigate the longitudinal association between baseline PAC and arterial stiffness progression in hypertensive patients.
Patients And Methods: This was a longitudinal study conducted at the Hypertension Center of People's Hospital of Xinjiang Uygur Autonomous Region between April 2020 and October 2023.

Aim: Co-existing primary aldosteronism (PA) and autonomous cortisol secretion (ACS) has been recently recognized as a distinct entity. This study aimed to assess the incidence of ACS in patients with PA, and its impact on clinical and laboratory parameters.
Methods: Ninety-two patients diagnosed with PA were included.

In recent years, metabolite identification of chemical constituents of traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) has been extensively studied. However, due to the intricacy of metabolic processes and the low concentration of metabolites, identifying metabolites of TCM in vivo is still a tough work. Meanwhile, credibility of metabolite identification through mass spectrum technology has been called into question by reason of the lack of metabolite standards.
