RBP behavior was studied in different kidney diseases. Serum RBP was increased in chronic renal diseases when the serum creatinine increased. RBP clearance and RBP clearance as a percentage of albumin clearance increased when GFR decreased; this is more evident in tubular kidney diseases. Urinary RBP loss as a percentage of urinary albumin loss increased especially in kidney diseases with persistent tubular lesions.

Background: Understanding based on up-to-date data on the burden of non-communicable diseases (NCDs) is limited, especially regarding how subtypes contribute to the overall NCD burden and the attributable risk factors across locations and subtypes. We aimed to report the global, regional, and national burden of NCDs, subtypes, and attributable risk factors in 2021, and trends from 1990 to 2021 by age, sex, and socio-demographic index (SDI).

Materials And Methods: We used data from the Global Burden of Disease Study 2021 to estimate the prevalence, deaths, and disability-adjusted life years (DALYs) for NCDs and subtypes, along with attributable risk factors.

Sex differences in the metabolism of glucose and fatty acids by adipose tissue and skeletal muscle in humans.

Physiol Rev

Metabolism, Obesity, and Nutrition Lab, School of Health, Concordia University, Montréal, Québec, Canada.

Adult males and females have markedly different body composition, energy expenditure, and have different degrees of risk for metabolic diseases. A major aspect of metabolic regulation involves the appropriate storage and disposal of glucose and fatty acids. The use of sophisticated calorimetry, tracer, and imaging techniques have provided insight into the complex metabolism of these substrates showing that the regulation of these processes varies tremendously throughout the day, from the overnight fasting condition to meal ingestion, to the effects of physical activity.

The triglyceride-glucose index as a surrogate measure to assess glycemic control in type 2 diabetes patients.

Unidad de Investigación Biomédica, Delegación Durango, Instituto Mexicano del Seguro Social, Predio Canoas 100, Col. Los Angeles, Durango, 34077, México.

Background: It has been revealed that the potential utility of the triglycerides and glucose (TyG) index as an effective option for assessing glycemic control; however, evidence in this field is still scarce.

Aims: The goal of this study was to investigate the diagnostic accuracy of the TyG index, as an alternative option, to detect inadequate glycemic control in patients with type 2 diabetes (T2D).

Methods: Men and women between 30 and 60 years of age diagnosed with type 2 diabetes were included in a cross-sectional study.

Calcineurin inhibitors have been the choice for maintenance immunosuppression (IS) in kidney transplant recipients (KTR), but they are associated with nephrotoxicity and metabolic side effects. We aim to compare the long-term outcomes of KTR on belatacept (bela) versus tacrolimus (tac) IS, in all KTRs and various subgroups. Using the UNOS-STAR files, we identified adult first-KTR from 2010 to 2022.
