RESUMO

Investigating the correlation between blood cadmium levels, platelet characteristics, and susceptibility to coronary heart disease (CHD). Utilized NHANES 2005-2018 data with covariates such as age, sex, race, marital status, and socio-economic status. Blood cadmium served as the independent variable, while platelet count (PC) and mean platelet volume (MPV) were dependent variables. The average age of the participants was 68.77 ± 11.03 years, and 67.4% of them were male. The mean values for WBC, MPV, PC, and blood cadmium were 7.53 ± 3.36 × 103 cells/µL, 11.33 ± 0.27fL, 57.61 ± 5.34 × 103 cells/µL, and 2.58 ± 0.61 µg/L, respectively. Adjusting for other variables revealed increased MPV and PC with rising blood cadmium levels in cardiac patients, indicating a higher risk of CHD in those with elevated blood cadmium. The average age of the participants was 68.77 ± 11.03 years, and 67.4% of them were male. The mean values for WBC, MPV, PC, and blood cadmium were 7.53 ± 3.36 × 103 cells/µL, 11.33 ± 0.27fL, 57.61 ± 5.34 × 103 cells/µL, and 2.58 ± 0.61 µg/L, respectively. Adjusting for other variables revealed increased MPV and PC with rising blood cadmium levels in cardiac patients, indicating a higher risk of CHD in those with elevated blood cadmium. This study enhances understanding of how cadmium impacts platelet characteristics, contributing to increased CHD risk, providing insights for primary prevention strategies.

RESUMO

Purpose: Our research introduces an innovative surgical approach, combining the Altemeier Procedure with Sigmoido-rectal Intussusception Anastomosis, effectively reducing recurrence, minimizing complications, and improving postoperative anal function in rectal prolapse patients. Materials and methods: This retrospective study, conducted at tertiary referral hospitals including Shandong University of Traditional Chinese Medicine's Affiliated Hospital, Linyi People's Hospital, and Pingyi People's Hospital, examined data from patients undergoing conventional Altemeier surgery or Altemeier combined with Sigmoido-rectal Intussusception Anastomosis. Analyzing hospitalization and follow-up data from January 2009 to December 2022, the study focused on prolapse recurrence, complications, and anal function as primary outcome indicators across these three study centers. Results: In the study, both groups had an average follow-up of (12.5 ± 2.41) months, and only two traditional group patients experienced mortality. Recurrence rates significantly differed, with 26.47% in the traditional group and 1.54% in the modified group (P < 0.001). The modified group showed no perioperative anastomotic dehiscence, contrasting with a 13.24% occurrence in the conventional group (P = 0.003). Primary complications in the modified group included anastomotic hemorrhage, with rates of 17.65% and 6.15% in the traditional and modified groups, respectively (P = 0.077). At 12 months postoperatively, both groups improved in anal manometry parameters and the Wexner anal incontinence score. Resting pressure was significantly lower in the traditional group (32.50 ± 1.76 mmHg) than the modified group (33.24 ± 2.06 mmHg) (P = 0.027), while the extrusion pressure was higher in the modified group (64.78 ± 1.55 mmHg) than the traditional group (62.85 ± 2.30 mmHg) (P < 0.001). The Wexner anal incontinence score was significantly lower in the modified group (2.69 ± 1.65) than the traditional group (3.69 ± 1.58, P = 0.001). Conclusion: This retrospective study affirms that adding Sigmoido-rectal Intussusception Anastomosis to the Altemeier procedure reduces recurrence and complications. While both approaches enhance postoperative anal function in complete rectal prolapse patients, the combined method, particularly with Sigmoido-rectal Intussusception Anastomosis, proves more effective.

RESUMO

Aims: This study investigates the relationship between the Systemic Inflammatory Response Index (SIRI) and thyroid function. Methods: Utilizing data from the National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (NHANES) 2009-2012, we excluded participants lacking SIRI or thyroid function data, those under 20 years, and pregnant individuals. SIRI was determined using blood samples. We conducted weighted multivariate regression and subgroup analyses to discern the independent relationship between SIRI and thyroid function. Results: The study included 1,641 subjects, with an average age of 47.26±16.77 years, including 48.65% males and 51.35% females. The population was divided into three SIRI-based groups (Q1-Q3). Q3, compared to Q1, exhibited higher age-at-onset, greater male prevalence, and increased levels of FT3, FT4, TT4, leukocytes, and triglycerides. This group also showed a higher incidence of diabetes, hypertension, and smoking. Notably, Q1 had lower LDL and HDL levels. SIRI maintained a positive association with FT4 (ß = 0.01, 95% CI = 0.00-0.03, P for trend = 0.0071), TT4 (ß = 0.20, 95% CI = 0.10, 0.31, P for trend=0.0001), and TPOAb (ß = 8.0, 95% CI = 1.77-14.30, P for trend = 0.0120), indicating that each quartile increase in SIRI corresponded to a 0.01 ng/dL increase in FT4, a 0.2 g/dL increase in TT4, and an 8.03 IU/mL rise in TPOAb. The subgroup analysis suggested the SIRI-thyroid function correlation was influenced by hypertension. Conclusion: Inflammation may impact the development and progression of thyroid function disorders. Proactive anti-inflammatory treatment might mitigate thyroid abnormalities.
