Trends in cardiovascular health among US adults by glycemic status based on Life's Essential 8.

OBJECTIVE: We aimed to assess the secular trends in cardiovascular health (CVH) among U.S. adults with different glycemic statuses based on the Life's Essential 8 (LE8). METHODS: This cross-sectional study used nationally representative data from 6 cycles of the National Health and Nutrition Examination Surveys between 2007 and 2018. Survey-weighted linear models were used to assess time trends in LE8 scores. Stratified analyses and sensitivity analyses were conducted to validate the stability of the results. RESULTS: A total of 23,616 participants were included in this study. From 2007 to 2018, there was no significant improvement in overall CVH and the proportion of ideal CVH among participants with diabetes and prediabetes. We observed an opposite trend between health behavior and health factors in the diabetes group, mainly in increasing physical activity scores and sleep scores (P for trend<0.001), and declining BMI scores [difference, -6.81 (95% CI, -12.82 to -0.80)] and blood glucose scores [difference, -6.41 (95% CI, -9.86 to -2.96)]. Dietary health remained at a consistently low level among participants with different glycemic status. The blood lipid scores in the prediabetes group improved but were still at a lower level than other groups. Education/income differences persist in the CVH of participants with diabetes or prediabetes, especially in health behavior factors. Sensitivity analyses of the absolute difference and change in proportion showed a consistent trend. CONCLUSIONS: Trends in CVH among participants with diabetes or prediabetes were suboptimal from 2007 to 2018, with persistent education/income disparities.

Construction of Nickel Single Atoms by Using the Inherent Confined Space in Template-Occupied Mesoporous Silica.

Due to their maximum atomic use of metal sites, single-atom catalysts (SACs) exhibit excellent catalytic activity in a variety of reactions. Although many techniques have been reported for the production of SACs, the construction of single atoms through a convenient strategy is still challenging. Here, we provide a facile method to prepare nickel SACs by utilizing the inherent confined space between the template and silica walls in template-occupied mesoporous silica KIT-6 (TOK). After the introduction of nickel-containing precursors into the inherent confined space of the TOK by solid-phase grinding, Ni SACs can be produced promptly during calcination. Single Ni atoms create a covalent Ni-O-Si structure in the TOK, as indicated by density functional theory (DFT) calculations and experimental data. This synthetic approach is easy to scale up, and 10 g of sample can be effortlessly synthesized using ball milling. The resultant Ni SACs were applied to the oxygen evolution reaction and exhibited higher catalytic activity and stability than the comparative sample synthesized in the absence of confined space.

Stable Mg Single-Atom Solid Base Catalysts Anchored on Metal-Organic Framework-Derived Nitrogen-Doped Carbon.

Solid base catalysts are widely used in the chemical industry owing to their advantages of environmental friendliness and easy separation. However, their application is limited by basic site aggregation and poor stability. In this study, we report the preparation of magnesium (Mg) single-atom catalysts with high activity and stability by a sublimation-trapping strategy. The Mg net was sublimated as Mg vapor at 620 °C, subsequently transported through argon, and finally trapped on the defects of nitrogen-doped carbon derived from metal-organic framework ZIF-8, producing Mg1/NC. Because of the atomically dispersed Mg sites, the obtained Mg1/NC exhibits high catalytic activity and stability for Knoevenagel condensation of benzaldehyde with malononitrile, which is a typical base-catalyzed reaction. The Mg1/NC catalyst achieves a high efficiency with a turnover frequency of 49.6 h-1, which is much better than that of the traditional counterpart MgO/NC (7.7 h-1). In particular, the activity of Mg1/NC shows no decrease after five catalytic cycles, while that of MgO/NC declines due to the instability of basic sites.

The reactome pathway knowledgebase 2022.

The Reactome Knowledgebase (https://reactome.org), an Elixir core resource, provides manually curated molecular details across a broad range of physiological and pathological biological processes in humans, including both hereditary and acquired disease processes. The processes are annotated as an ordered network of molecular transformations in a single consistent data model. Reactome thus functions both as a digital archive of manually curated human biological processes and as a tool for discovering functional relationships in data such as gene expression profiles or somatic mutation catalogs from tumor cells. Recent curation work has expanded our annotations of normal and disease-associated signaling processes and of the drugs that target them, in particular infections caused by the SARS-CoV-1 and SARS-CoV-2 coronaviruses and the host response to infection. New tools support better simultaneous analysis of high-throughput data from multiple sources and the placement of understudied ('dark') proteins from analyzed datasets in the context of Reactome's manually curated pathways.

Machine learning based biomarker discovery for chronic kidney disease-mineral and bone disorder (CKD-MBD).

INTRODUCTION: Chronic kidney disease-mineral and bone disorder (CKD-MBD) is characterized by bone abnormalities, vascular calcification, and some other complications. Although there are diagnostic criteria for CKD-MBD, in situations when conducting target feature examining are unavailable, there is a need to investigate and discover alternative biochemical criteria that are easy to obtain. Moreover, studying the correlations between the newly discovered biomarkers and the existing ones may provide insights into the underlying molecular mechanisms of CKD-MBD. METHODS: We collected a cohort of 116 individuals, consisting of three subtypes of CKD-MBD: calcium abnormality, phosphorus abnormality, and PTH abnormality. To identify the best biomarker panel for discrimination, we conducted six machine learning prediction methods and employed a sequential forward feature selection approach for each subtype. Additionally, we collected a separate prospective cohort of 114 samples to validate the discriminative power of the trained prediction models. RESULTS: Using machine learning under cross validation setting, the feature selection method selected a concise biomarker panel for each CKD-MBD subtype as well as for the general one. Using the consensus of these features, best area under ROC curve reached up to 0.95 for the training dataset and 0.74 for the perspective dataset, respectively. DISCUSSION/CONCLUSION: For the first time, we utilized machine learning methods to analyze biochemical criteria associated with CKD-MBD. Our aim was to identify alternative biomarkers that could serve not only as early detection indicators for CKD-MBD, but also as potential candidates for studying the underlying molecular mechanisms of the condition.

[Retrospective cross-sectional survey of clinical characteristics and syndrome elements distribution at different stages of coronary heart disease].

The clinical data of coronary heart disease(CHD) patients treated in the First Affiliated Hospital of Guangzhou University of Chinese Medicine and Shenzhen Hospital of Integrated Traditional Chinese and Western Medicine from January 2022 to March 2023 were retrospectively collected. This study involved the descriptive analysis of demographic characteristics, clinical symptoms, and tongue and pulse features. The χ~2 test was conducted to analyze the distribution of syndrome elements and their combinations at diffe-rent stages of CHD, so as to reveal the clinical characteristics and syndrome patterns at various pathological stages of CHD. This study extracted 28 symptom entries, 10 tongue manifestation entries, and 7 pulse manifestation entries, summarized the 5 main disease locations of the heart, lung, liver, spleen, and kidney, and the 8 main disease natures of blood stasis, phlegm turbidity, Qi stagnation, heat(fire), fluid retention, Qi deficiency, Yin deficiency, and Yang deficiency and 8 combinations of disease natures. The χ~2 test showed significant differences in the distribution of syndrome elements including the lung, liver, spleen, kidney, blood stasis, heat(fire), Qi stagnation, heat syndrome, water retention, Qi deficiency, Yin deficiency, and Yang deficiency between different disease stages. Specifically, the liver, blood stasis, heat(fire), and Qi stagnation accounted for the highest proportion during unstable stage, and the lung, spleen, kidney, water retention, Qi deficiency, Yin deficiency, and Yang deficiency accounted for the highest proportion at the end stage. The distribution of Qi deficiency varied in the different time periods after percutaneous coronary intervention(PCI). As shown by the χ~2 test of the syndrome elements combination, the distribution of single disease location, multiple disease locations, single disease nature, double disease natures, multiple natures, excess syndrome, and mixture of deficiency and excess varied significantly at different stages of CHD. Specifically, single disease location, single disease nature, and excess syndrome accounted for the highest proportion during the stable stage, and double disease natures accounted for the highest proportion during the unstable stage. Multiple disease locations, multiple disease natures, and mixture of deficiency and excess accounted for the highest proportion during the end stage. In conclusion, phlegm turbidity and blood stasis were equally serious during the stable stage, and a pathological mechanism caused by blood stasis and toxin existed during the unstable stage. The overall Qi deficiency worsened after PCI, and the end stage was accompanied by the Yin and Yang damage and the aggravation of water retention. There were significant differences in the distribution of clinical characteristics and syndrome elements at different stages of CHD. The pathological process of CHD witnessed the growth and decline of deficiency and excess and the combination of phlegm turbidity and blood stasis, which constituted the basic pathogenesis.

Bifunctional catalytic degradation of diclofenac over Cu-Pd co-modified sponge iron-based trimetal: Parameter optimization.

Currently, the pharmaceutical and personal care products (PPCPs) have posed great challenge to advanced oxidation techniques (AOTs). In this study, we decorated sponge iron (s-Fe0) with Cu and Pd (s-Fe0-Cu-Pd) and further optimized the synthesis parameters with a response surface method (RSM) to rapidly degrade diclofenac sodium (DCF). Under the RSM-optimized conditions of Fe: Cu: Pd = 100: 4.23: 0.10, initial solution pH of 5.13, and input dosage of 38.8 g/L, 99% removal of DCF could be obtained after 60 min of reaction. Moreover, the morphological structure of trimetal was characterized with high-angle annular dark-field scanning transmission electron microscopy (HAADF-STEM), X-ray diffraction (XRD), X-ray photoelectron spectra (XPS). Electron spin resonance (ESR) signals have also been applied to capture reactive hydrogen atoms (H*), superoxygen anions, hydroxyl radicals, and single state oxygen (1O2). Furthermore, the variations of DCF and its selective degradation products over a series of s-Fe0-based bi(tri)metals have been compared. Additionally, the degradation mechanism of DCF has also been explored. To our best knowledge, this is the first report revealing the selective dechlorination of DCF with low toxicity over Pd-Cu co-doped s-Fe0 trimetal.

Plantamajoside attenuates cardiac fibrosis via inhibiting AGEs activated-RAGE/autophagy/EndMT pathway.

Advanced glycation end products (AGEs) have been identified to transduce fibrogenic signals via inducing the activation of their receptor (RAGE)-mediated pathway. Recently, disrupting AGE-RAGE interaction has become a promising therapeutic strategy for chronic heart failure (CHF). Endothelial-to-mesenchymal transition (EndMT) is close to the cardiac fibrosis pathological process. Our previous studies have demonstrated that knockout RAGE suppressed the autophagy-mediated EndMT, and thus alleviated cardiac fibrosis. Plantamajoside (PMS) is the major bioactive compound of Plantago Asiatica, and its activity of anti-fibrosis has been documented in many reports. However, its effect on CHF and the underlying mechanism remains elusive. Thus, we tried to elucidate the protective role of PMS in CHF from the viewpoint of the AGEs/RAGE/autophagy/EndMT axis. Herein, PMS was found to attenuate cardiac fibrosis and dysfunction, suppress EndMT, reduce autophagy levels and serum levels of AGEs, yet did not affect the expression of RAGE in CHF mice. Mechanically, PMS possibly binds to the V-domain of RAGE, which is similar to the interaction between AGEs and RAGE. Importantly, this competitive binding disturbed AGEs-induced the RAGE-autophagy-EndMT pathway in vitro. Collectively, our results indicated that PMS might exert an anti-cardiac fibrosis effect by specifically binding RAGE to suppress the AGEs-activated RAGE/autophagy/EndMT pathway.

Association of dietary total antioxidant capacity with all-cause and cardiovascular mortality in patients with chronic kidney disease: based on two retrospective cohort studies of NHANES.

BACKGROUND: The relationship between dietary total antioxidant capacity (DTAC) and death risk among CKD populations remains unclear. METHODS: Based on vitamin C equivalent antioxidant capacity (VCEAC) and the component dietary antioxidant index (CDAI) indices, we analyzed two cohorts to investigate the association of DTAC with all-cause and CVD mortality in CKD patients using data from National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (2007-2018). VCEAC (n = 6330) and CDAI (n = 6300) cohorts with mortality follow-up data available through 2018 were included. Cox models with restricted cubic splines was used to model the nonlinear association between VCEAC/CDAI and outcomes in CKD patients. RESULTS: Our results showed L-shaped associations of DTAC with all-cause mortality among individuals with CKD stages 1-2 in both cohorts. Compared to the lowest quartile, higher dietary total antioxidant intake was associated with lower all-cause mortality risks among CKD stages 1-2 after adjustment for covariates, with HRs (95%CI) of 1.00, 0.91 (0.71,1.17), 0.69 (0.53,0.90), and 0.70 (0.54,0.91) in VCEAC, and similar respective estimate trends in CDAI. After sensitivity and subgroup analyses, there were no benefits for patients with stage 3-5 CKD or albuminuria. Mediation analysis revealed that the proportions mediated in both cohorts were less consistent. CONCLUSIONS: Moderate dietary total antioxidants intake has potential benefits for early-stage CKD patients. However, further evidence is needed to confirm whether patients with worsening CKD can benefit in the long term.

[Research advances in mechanism of lipid infiltration of coronary heart disease and simultaneous treatment of phlegm and blood stasis based on phlegm-blood stasis correlation theory].

Atherosclerosis(AS) is the key pathological basis of coronary heart disease(CHD), and lipid infiltration is a classical theory to explain the pathological mechanism of AS. The theory highlights that the occurrence and development of AS are closely related to abnormal lipid metabolism, with the essence of the pathological reaction caused by the invasion of lipids into arterial intima from plasma. Phlegm and blood stasis are physiologically homologous and subject to pathological co-existence. Phlegm-blood stasis correlation is the basic theory to explain the pathogenesis characteristics of CHD and has important guiding significance for revealing the mecha-nism of lipid infiltration of CHD. Phlegm is the pathological product of abnormal metabolism of Qi, blood, and body fluid, and a gene-ral summary of a series of abnormally expressed lipid substances. Among them, turbid phlegm invades the heart vessels, gradually accumulates, and condenses to achieve the qualitative change from "invisible pathogen" to "tangible pathogen", which corresponds to the mechanism of lipid migration and deposition in the intima of blood vessels, and is the starting factor of the disease. Blood stasis is the continuous development of phlegm, and it is a result of pathological states such as decreased blood fluidity, increased blood coagulation, and abnormal rheology. The fact that blood stasis caused by phlegm accords with the pathological process of "lipid abnormality-circulatory disturbance" and is the central link of the disease. Phlegm and blood stasis aggravate each other and lead to indissoluble cementation. The phlegm-blood stasis combination serves as common pathogen to trigger the disease, which is the inevitable outcome of the disease. Based on the phlegm-blood stasis correlation theory, the simultaneous treatment of phlegm and blood stasis is established. It is found that this therapy can simultaneously regulate blood lipid, reduce blood viscosity, and improve blood circulation, which can fundamentally cut off the biological material basis of the reciprocal transformation between phlegm and blood stasis, thus exerting a significant curative effect.

[Syndrome differentiation and treatment of coronary heart disease combined with anxiety and depression from stages of phlegm, blood stasis, and toxic pathogen based on theory of "coexistence of diseases and depression syndromes"].

Depression syndromes(anxiety and depression), as typical psychological disorders, often coexist with and mutually influence coronary heart disease(CHD). They constitute a psycho-cardiology disease involving both the blood vessels of the heart and the spirit of the heart. Based on the theory of "coexistence of diseases and depression syndromes", it was proposed that CHD and depression syndromes coexisted independently and were causally related. The factors of depression syndromes go through the entire course of CHD and have different causal relationships at different stages, leading to a pathogenic process of "depression causing disease" or "disease causing depression". In the chronic latent period, phlegm predominates, with depression leading to the production of phlegm. Phlegm accumulation and Qi stagnation initiate a mutual damage process of psycho-cardiology, marking the onset of the disease. In the pathological development period, blood stasis becomes predominant. Depression leads to blood stasis, which further obstructs Qi circulation, accelerating disease progression. In the acute attack period, toxicity becomes crucial. Depression transforms into toxicity, damaging Qi and blood, disturbing the balance of the mind, and inducing a sudden and severe exacerbation of the disease. Based on this, the approach of treating phlegm and depression together, treating blood stasis and depression together, and treating toxicity and depression together by stages was established. Research has found that this approach can simultaneously improve organic damage and emotional disorders, and also has a regulating effect on micro-level syndrome indicators, achieving harmonization of psycho-cardiology in the treatment.

Tuning the (Chir)Optical Properties and Squeezing out the Inherent Chirality in Polyphenylene-Locked Helical Carbon Nanorings.

Distorting linear polyaromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) out of planarity affects their physical properties and breaks their symmetry to induce inherent chirality. However, the chirality cannot be achieved in large distorted PAHs-based macrocycles due to a low racemization barrier for isomerization. Herein, we report the precise synthesis and tuning size-dependent (chir)optical properties of a new class of chiral PAHs-containing conjugated macrocycles (cyclo[n]paraphenylene-2,6-anthrylene, [n]CPPAn2,6 ; n=6-8). Their inherent chiralities were squeezed out in small anthrylene-based macrocycles. Efficient resolutions for chiral enantiomers with (P)/(M)-helicity of small [6-7]CPPAns were achieved by HPLC. Interestingly, these macrocycles showed enriched size-dependent physical, chiral, and (chir)optical properties. Theoretical calculations indicate that these macrocycles have high strain energy (Estrain =60.8 to 73.4 kcal/mol) and very small Egap (∼3.0 eV). Notably, these enantiomers showed strong chiroptical properties and dissymmetry factors (|gabs | and |glum |∼0.01 for an enantiomer of [6]CPPAn2,6 ), which can give them potential applications in optically active materials.

Single Molecular Reaction of Water on a ZnO Surface.

The dissociation of a single water molecule on a ZnO(101̅0) surface has been investigated at the atomic level by low temperature STM manipulation combined with DFT calculations. The positive pulses applied from the tip inject electrons into the system and break the bonding between water and the ZnO surface, thus leading to the hopping of water molecules. Negative pulses inject holes wherein the lower energy ones split the free O-H bond pointing out of the surface whereas the higher energy ones split the second O-H bond that is directed to the surface through hydrogen bonding. Moreover, the yielded proton and hydroxyl species present distinctly charged status through different reaction pathways, manifesting their unique impacts on tailoring the surface properties of the metal oxide.

Catalytically Stable Potassium Single-Atom Solid Superbases.

Solid superbases can catalyze diverse reactions under mild conditions, while they suffer from aggregation of basic sites and poor stability during recycling. Here we report a new generation of solid superbases derived from K single atoms (SAs) prepared by a tandem redox strategy. The initial redox reaction takes place between base precursor KNO3 and graphene support, producing K2 O at 400 °C. Further increasing the temperature to 800 °C, the graphene reduces K2 O to K anchored by its vacancies, leading to the generation of K SAs (denoted as K1 /G). The source of basicity in the K1 /G is K SAs, and neighboring single atoms (NSAs) possess superbasicity, which is different from conventional basicity originated from oxygen and nitrogen atoms. Due to the superbasicity as well as high dispersion and anchoring of basic sites, the K1 /G shows excellent catalytic activity and stability in transesterification reaction, which is much superior to the reported catalysts.

Knockdown of lncRNA PVT1 attenuated macrophage M1 polarization and relieved sepsis induced myocardial injury via miR-29a/HMGB1 axis.

BACKGROUND: LncRNA PVT1 was reported to be elevated in septic myocardial tissue. The underlying mechanism by which PVT1 aggravated sepsis induced myocardial injury needs further investigation. METHODS: Mice was subjected to LPS injection to mimic in vivo sepsis model. HE staining was applied to observe tissue injury. Cardiac function of mice was determined by echocardiography. Bone marrow derived macrophage (BMDM) was used to confirm the regulatory effect of PVT1 in macrophage polarization. Western blotting or qRT-PCR were performed to evaluate protein or mRNA levels, respectively. ELISA was conducted to determine cytokine levels. Interaction between PVT1 and miR-29a, miR-29a and HMGB1 were accessed by dual luciferase assay. RESULTS: Expression of PVT1 was elevated in myocardial tissue and heart infiltrating macrophages of sepsis mice. PVT1 knockdown alleviated LPS induced myocardial injury and attenuated M1 macrophage polarization. The mechanic study suggested that PVT1 targeted miR-29a, thus elevated expression of HMGB1, which was repressed by miR-29a targeting. The effect of PVT1 on M1 macrophage polarization was dependent on targeting miR-29a. CONCLUSION: PVT1 promoted M1 polarization and aggravated LPS induced myocardial injury via miR-29a/HMGB1 axis.

A Highly Strained All-Phenylene Conjoined Bismacrocycle.

Herein, we report the precise synthesis of a 3D highly strained all-phenylene bismacrocycle, termed conjoined (1,4)[10]cycloparaphenylenophane (SCPP[10]). This structure consists of a twisted benzene ring which is bridged twice by phenylene units anchored in two para-positions. The conjoined structure of SCPP[10] was confirmed in real space at the atomic scale by scanning tunneling microscopy. Theoretical calculations indicate that this bismacrocycle has a very high strain energy of 110.59 kcal mol-1 and the largest interphenylene torsion angle of 46.07° caused by multiple repulsive interactions. Furthermore, a 1:2 host-guest complex of SCPP[10] and [6,6]-phenyl-C61 -butyric acid methyl ester was investigated, which represents the first peanut-shaped 1:2 host-guest complex based on bismacrocycles.

Arctigenin alleviates myocardial infarction injury through inhibition of the NFAT5-related inflammatory phenotype of cardiac macrophages/monocytes in mice.

In this study, we screened potential natural compounds for the treatment of myocardial infarction (MI) and explored the underlying mechanisms. We built three machine learning models to screen the potential compounds. qPCR, flow cytometry, immunohistochemistry, and immunofluorescence analyses were applied to analyze the pharmacological effects of the compounds on macrophages/monocytes in vivo and in vitro. Arctigenin (AG) was selected as a candidate, and echocardiography, Masson's trichrome staining, and TUNEL staining were utilized to detect the effect of AG on MI in vivo. Transcriptome analysis and subsequent bioinformatics analyses were performed to predict the target of the selected compound. Western blot and luciferase reporter assays were used to confirm the target and mechanism of AG. The reversibility of the effects of AG were verified through overexpression of NFAT5. The results showed that AG can improve cardiac injury after MI by reducing infarct size, improving heart function, and inhibiting cardiac death. In addition, AG suppresses inflammatory macrophages/monocytes and proinflammatory cytokines in vivo and in vitro. Transcriptomic and biological experiments revealed that AG modulates macrophage polarization via the NFAT5-induced signaling pathway. Therefore, our data suggest that AG can improve MI by inhibiting the inflammatory phenotype of macrophages/monocytes through targeting of NFAT5.

High-Throughput Platform to Identify Antibody Conjugation Sites from Antibody-Drug Conjugate Libraries.

Antibody-drug conjugates (ADCs) are a therapeutic modality that traditionally enable the targeted delivery of highly potent cytotoxic agents to specific cells such as tumor cells. More recently, antibodies have been used to deliver molecules such as antibiotics, antigens, and adjuvants to bacteria or specific immune cell subsets. Site-directed mutagenesis of proteins permits more precise control over the site and stoichiometry of their conjugation, giving rise to homogeneous chemically defined ADCs. Identification of favorable sites for conjugation in antibodies is essential as reaction efficiency and product stability are influenced by the tertiary structure of immunoglobulin G (IgG). Current methods to evaluate potential conjugation sites are time-consuming and labor intensive, involving multistep processes for individually produced reactions. Here, we describe a highly efficient method for identification of conjugatable genetic variants by analyzing pooled ADC libraries using mass spectrometry. This approach provides a versatile platform to rapidly uncover new conjugation sites for site-specific ADCs.
