The Chronic Kidney Disease Epidemiology Collaboration (CKD-EPI) equation was introduced to estimate glomerular filtration rate (GFR) in chronic kidney disease (CKD) patients based on serum creatinine. CKD-EPI shows better accuracy compared with the current gold standard equation, Modification of Diet Renal (MDRD) but it has not been externally validated Chinese patients. This study original MDRD and two MDRD-based equations for estimating GFR 200 CKD 99m Tc-diethylenetriamine penta-acetate (...
Background Left ventricular (LV) diastolic dysfunction has been demonstrated to be an independent predictor of the future heart failure. Heart failure is one severe complications caused by overt hyperthyroidism. However, effects hyperthyroidism on are conflicting, and little known about prevalence risk factors in patients with Methods A total 388 were included compared age- gender- matched euthyroid control subjects. LV function was evaluated traditional tissue-Doppler echocardiography....
Abstract Background: Although 2-methylbutyrylcarnitine (2MBC) has been associated with metabolic disorders and promotes thrombosis, its effect on atherosclerosis remains elusive. This study was aimed at investigating the role of 2MBC in development. Methods Results: Apolipoprotein E-deficient (ApoE −/− ) mice were fed a Western diet for 18 weeks to induce atherosclerosis, then administered once-daily gavage or vehicle weeks. Parameters systemic lipid metabolism detected. did not upregulate...
Non-alcoholic steatohepatitis (NASH) is the progressive form of non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) which most common chronic worldwide. However, there are no FDA-approved drugs for treating NASH. The roles hypoxia-inducible factor-1α (HIF1α) playing in NASH not fully understood, and mainstream view that HIF1α knockout improved Here, order to explore clinical translation potential HIF1α, we used inhibitor KC7F2 treat diet-induced mice 10 weeks. Surprisingly, it turned out intensified...
Abstract Background: Hyperthyroidism heart disease (HHD) is the most severe complication of overt hyperthyroidism and increases mortality risk in affected patients. Early identification patients at a higher developing HHD could improve clinical outcomes through active surveillance management. Connective tissue growth factor (CTGF), secreted extracellular protein, plays significant role cardiac remodeling dysfunction. We aimed to investigate relationship between plasma CTGF level this study....
