RESUMEN
BACKGROUND: Maintaining ideal cardiovascular health scores (CHS) may indirectly contribute to reducing the risk of perioperative acute kidney injury (AKI), which has never been explored previously. In this study, we aimed to explore the relationship between CHS and AKI and provide new ideas for AKI prevention and treatment. METHODS: We examined the effects of CHS on the occurrence of AKI among 2783 participants from the Kailuan study, who received general anesthesia during noncardiac surgery from 2016 to 2020. The odds ratios (ORs) and 95% confidence intervals (95% CIs) for AKI were calculated by using the logistic regression. RESULTS: Among 2783 participants 187 were diagnosed with perioperative AKI. We found an inverse relationship between the CHS scores and the risk of AKI. Participants with CHS score ≥ 10 had 57% decreased risk of AKI (OR = 0.43, 95% CI = 0.23, 0.79), compared with participants with CHS score ≤ 7, especially in men (OR = 0.39, 95% CI: 0.20, 0.76). In addition, participants who never smoked, exercised frequently, and had normal blood pressure had decreased risk of AKI, with corresponding ORs (95% CIs) of 0.66 (0.47, 0.91), 0.73 (0.60, 0.92), and 0.46 (0.28, 0.75), respectively. CONCLUSIONS: CHS was strongly associated with the risk of perioperative AKI, and higher CHS scores were associated with a lower risk of AKI. Further research is needed to explore the long-term effects of achieving and maintaining an ideal CHS on AKI risk.

AIM: To investigate the risk and protective factors associated with the retinal nerve fiber layer defect (RNFLD) in a Chinese adult population. METHODS: This study was a cross-sectional population-based investigation including employees and retirees of a coal mining company in Kailuan City, Hebei Province. All the study participants underwent a comprehensive systemic and ophthalmic examination. RNFLD was diagnosed on fundus photographs. Binary logistic regression was used to investigate the risk and protective factors associated with the RNFLD. RESULTS: The community-based study included 14 440 participants. There were 10 473 participants in our study, including 7120 males (68.0%) and 3353 females (32.0%). The age range was 45-108y, averaging 59.56±8.66y. Totally 568 participants had RNFLD and the prevalence rate was 5.42%. A higher prevalence of RNFLD was associated with older age [P<0.001, odds ratio (OR): 1.032; 95% confidence interval (CI): 1.018-1.046], longer axial length (P=0.010, OR: 1.190; 95%CI: 1.042-1.359), hypertension (P=0.007, OR: 0.639; 95%CI: 0.460-0.887), and diabetes mellitus (P=0.019, OR: 0.684; 95%CI: 0.499-0.939). The protective factors of RNFLD were visual acuity (P=0.038, OR: 0.617; 95%CI: 0.391-0.975), and central anterior chamber depth (P=0.046, OR: 0.595; 95%CI: 0.358-0.990). CONCLUSION: In our cross-sectional community-based study, with an age range of 45-108y, RNFLD is associated with older age, longer axial length, hypertension, and diabetes mellitus. The protective factors of RNFLD are visual acuity and central anterior chamber depth. These can help to predict and evaluate RNFLD related diseases and identify high-risk populations early.
RESUMEN
OBJECTIVE: To prospectively examine the associations of combined lifestyle factors with incident cardiovascular disease (CVD) and mortality in patients with diabetes. PATIENTS AND METHODS: Patients with prevalent diabetes were included from 5 prospective, population-based cohorts in China (Dongfeng-Tongji cohort and Kailuan study), the United Kingdom (UK Biobank study), and the United States (National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey and National Institutes of Health-AARP Diet and Health Study). Healthy lifestyle scores were constructed according to non-current smoking, low to moderate alcohol drinking, regular physical activity, healthy diet, and optimal body weight; the healthy level of each lifestyle factor was assigned 1 point, or 0 for otherwise, and the range of the score was 0 to 5. Cox proportional hazards models were used to estimate hazard ratios for incident CVD, CVD mortality, and all-cause mortality adjusting for sociodemographic, medical, and diabetes-related factors, and outcomes were obtained by linkage to medical records and death registries. Data were collected from October 18, 1988, to September 30, 2020. RESULTS: A total of 6945 incident CVD cases were documented in 41,350 participants without CVD at baseline from the 2 Chinese cohorts and the UK Biobank during 389,330 person-years of follow-up, and 40,353 deaths were documented in 101,219 participants from all 5 cohorts during 1,238,391 person-years of follow-up. Adjusted hazard ratios (95% CIs) comparing patients with 4 or 5 vs 0 or 1 healthy lifestyle factors were 0.67 (0.60 to 0.74) for incident CVD, 0.58 (0.50 to 0.68) for CVD mortality, and 0.60 (0.53 to 0.68) for all-cause mortality. Findings remained consistent across different cohorts, subgroups, and sensitivity analyses. CONCLUSION: The international analyses document that adherence to multicomponent healthy lifestyles is associated with lower risk of CVD and premature death of patients with diabetes.

Background: It is unclear whether more severe non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) combined with prehypertension or hypertension is associated with a higher risk of cardiovascular events (CVEs). To evaluate the relationship between the severity of NAFLD and CVEs among patients with prehypertension or hypertension. Methods: In this prospective community-based Kailuan cohort, participants without cardiovascular disease and alcohol abuse, or other liver diseases were enrolled. NAFLD was diagnosed by abdominal ultrasonography. Prehypertension was defined as systolic blood pressure (BP) of 120-139 mmHg or diastolic BP of 80-89 mmHg. Participants with NAFLD were divided into mild, moderate, and severe subgroups. Follow-up for CVEs including myocardial infarction, hemorrhagic stroke, and ischemic stroke. The Cox proportional hazards model was used to estimate hazard ratios and 95% CIs of CVEs according to the severity of NAFLD and hypertensive statutes. The C-statistic was used to evaluate the efficiency of models. Results: A total of 71926 participants (mean [SD] age, 51.83 [12.72] years, 53794 [74.79%] men, and 18132 [25.21%] women) were enrolled in this study, 6,045 CVEs occurred during a median of 13.02 (0.65) years of follow-up. Compared with participants without NAFLD, the hazard ratios of CVEs for patients with mild, moderate, and severe NAFLD were 1.143 (95% CI 1.071-1.221, P < 0.001), 1.218 (95% CI 1.071-1.221, P < 0.001), and 1.367 (95% CI 1.172-1.595, P < 0.001), respectively. Moreover, participants with prehypertension plus moderate/severe NAFLD and those with hypertension plus moderate/severe NAFLD had 1.558-fold (95% CI 1.293-1.877, P < 0.001) and 2.357-fold (95% CI 2.063-2.691, P < 0.001) higher risks of CVEs, respectively, compared with those with normal BP and no NAFLD. Adding a combination of NAFLD and BP status to the crude Cox model increased the C-statistic by 0.0130 (0.0115-0.0158, P < 0.001). Conclusions: Our findings indicated that the increased cardiovascular risk with elevated BP is largely driven by the coexistence of moderate/severe NAFLD, suggesting that the severity of NAFLD may help further stratify patients with prehypertension and hypertension.

AIMS/HYPOTHESIS: Cancer has contributed to an increasing proportion of diabetes-related deaths, while lifestyle management is the cornerstone of both diabetes care and cancer prevention. We aimed to evaluate the associations of combined healthy lifestyles with total and site-specific cancer risks among individuals with diabetes. METHODS: We included 92,239 individuals with diabetes but without cancer at baseline from five population-based cohorts in the USA (National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey and National Institutes of Health [NIH]-AARP Diet and Health Study), the UK (UK Biobank study) and China (Dongfeng-Tongji cohort and Kailuan study). Healthy lifestyle scores (range 0-5) were constructed based on current nonsmoking, low-to-moderate alcohol drinking, adequate physical activity, healthy diet and optimal bodyweight. Cox regressions were used to calculate HRs for cancer morbidity and mortality, adjusting for sociodemographic, medical and diabetes-related factors. RESULTS: During 376,354 person-years of follow-up from UK Biobank and the two Chinese cohorts, 3229 incident cancer cases were documented, and 6682 cancer deaths were documented during 1,089,987 person-years of follow-up in the five cohorts. The pooled multivariable-adjusted HRs (95% CIs) comparing participants with 4-5 vs 0-1 healthy lifestyle factors were 0.73 (0.61, 0.88) for incident cancer and 0.55 (0.46, 0.67) for cancer mortality, and ranged between 0.41 and 0.63 for oesophagus, lung, liver, colorectum, breast and kidney cancers. Findings remained consistent across different cohorts and subgroups. CONCLUSIONS/INTERPRETATION: This international cohort study found that adherence to combined healthy lifestyles was associated with lower risks of total cancer morbidity and mortality as well as several subtypes (oesophagus, lung, liver, colorectum, breast and kidney cancers) among individuals with diabetes.

Objective: To analyze the prevalence of dry and wet age-related macular degeneration (AMD) in patients with diabetes, hypertension and hyperlipidemia, and to analyze the risk factors for AMD. Methods: A population-based cross-sectional epidemiologic study was conducted involving 14,440 individuals. We assessed the prevalence of dry and wet AMD in diabetic and non-diabetic subjects and analyzed the risk factors for AMD. Results: The prevalence of wet AMD in diabetic and non-diabetic patients was 0.3% and 0.5%, respectively, and the prevalence of dry AMD was 17% and 16.4%, respectively. The prevalence of wet AMD in healthy, hypertensive, hyperlipidemic, and hypertensive/hyperlipidemic populations was 0.5%, 0.3%, 0.2%, and 0.7%, respectively. The prevalence of dry AMD in healthy, hypertensive, hyperlipidemic, and hypertensive/hyperlipidemic populations was 16.6%, 16.2%, 15.2%, and 17.2%, respectively. Age, sex, body mass index, and use of hypoglycemic drugs or lowering blood pressure drugs were corrected in the risk factor analysis of AMD. Diabetes, diabetes/hypertension, diabetes/hyperlipidemia, and diabetes/hypertension/hyperlipidemia were analyzed. None of the factors analyzed in the current study increased the risk for the onset of AMD. Conclusion: There was no significant difference in the prevalence of wet and dry AMD among diabetic and non-diabetic subjects. Similarly, there was no significant difference in the prevalence of wet and dry AMD among subjects with hypertension and hyperlipidemia. Diabetes co-existing with hypertension and hyperlipidemia were not shown to be risk factors for the onset of dry AMD.

Background: There have been no studies of the effect of non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) on cardiovascular events (CVEs) in patients with pre-diabetes (pre-DM), and diabetes mellitus (DM). We performed a community-based cohort study to evaluate the relationship between NAFLD and CVEs in patients with glucose metabolism disorder. Methods: We enrolled 71,852 participants from the Kailuan study who had not experienced CVEs, after excluding alcohol abuse and other liver diseases. NAFLD was assessed using abdominal ultrasonography. Besides, participants were categorized by glucose metabolism status [normal glucose regulation (NGR), pre-DM, and DM]. All subjects were followed up for the occurrence of CVEs. Results: During a median of 13.01 (0.64) years of follow-up, 6,037 CVEs occurred. NAFLD was present in 22,525 (31.3%), and compared with participants without NAFLD, those with NAFLD had a 12.3% [95% confidence interval (CI) 1.059-1.191, P < 0.001] higher risk of CVEs, after adjustment for potential confounders. The hazard ratios for patients with mild, moderate, and severe NAFLD were 1.104 (95% CI 1.035-1.179, P < 0.001), 1.149 (95% CI 1.055-1.251, P < 0.001), and 1.235 (95% CI 1.059-1.441, P < 0.001), respectively. Moreover, participants with pre-DM plus NAFLD and participants with DM plus NAFLD had 1.267-fold (95% CI 1.151-1.395, P < 0.001) and 1.829-fold (95% CI 1.666-2.008, P < 0.001) higher risks of CVEs, respectively, compared with those with NGR and no NAFLD. The addition of the combination of NAFLD and glucose metabolism status to the crude Cox model increased the C-statistic by 0.0066 (0.0053-0.0080, P < 0.001). Conclusions: NAFLD is associated with higher risks of CVEs. Moreover, NAFLD is an independent predictor of CVEs in patients with pre-DM and DM, suggesting that NAFLD may provide greater risk predictive value for patients with glucose metabolism disorder.
RESUMEN
AIMS: China has the largest number of adults with diabetes. Although multiple metabolic risk factors (MRFs) are implicated in the development of diabetes, it remains unclear how they progress during the development of diabetes among Chinese. We examined trajectories of multiple MRFs among Chinese and identified the critical period when drastic changes occurred during the development of diabetes. METHODS: This prospective cohort study included participants since 2006-2007 in the Kailuan study. People attended biennial examinations until 2017 with additions of new participants at each examination cycle. The time when a participant first completed the examination was served as the baseline. A total of 122,659 participants without prevalent diabetes at baseline and with complete follow-up data were included. MRFs were collected via biennial physical examinations and laboratory measures. Incident diabetes cases were identified via biennial fasting glucose tests and self-reported physician-diagnosis. RESULTS: During up to 12 years of follow-up, 14,922 incident diabetes cases were identified. Compared with participants who did not develop diabetes, those who developed diabetes had more adverse levels of most MRFs at baseline and during follow-up. Abrupt increases in multiple MRFs (including fasting glucose, surrogate insulin resistance indicators, lipids, systolic blood pressure, pulse pressure, heart rate, alanine aminotransferase, and C-reactive protein) were observed 3 years before the diagnosis of diabetes. CONCLUSIONS: We identified 3 years before diabetes diagnosis as a critical period when multiple MRFs experienced drastic changes. This would have implications for early monitoring and timely prevention for individuals who experience sudden adverse progression of multiple MRFs.

BACKGROUND: Prospective analyses have yet to identify a consistent relationship between sleep duration and the incidence of gastrointestinal (GI) cancers. The effect of changes in sleep duration on GI cancer incidence has scarcely been studied. Therefore, we aimed to examine the association between baseline sleep duration and annual changes in sleep duration and GI cancer risk in a large population-based cohort study. METHODS: A total of 123,495 participants with baseline information and 83,511 participants with annual changes in sleep duration information were prospectively observed from 2006 to 2015 for cancer incidence. Cox proportional-hazards models were used to calculate hazard ratios (HRs) and their confidence intervals (CIs) for GI cancers according to sleep duration and annual changes in sleep duration. RESULTS: In baseline sleep duration analyses, short sleep duration (≤5 h) was significantly associated with a lower risk of GI cancer in females (HR: 0.31, 95% CI: 0.10-0.90), and a linear relationship between baseline sleep duration and GI cancer was observed (Pâ=â0.010), especially in males and in the >50-year-old group. In the annual changes in sleep duration analyses, with stable category (0 to -15 min/year) as the control group, decreased sleep duration (≤-15âmin/year) was significantly associated with the development of GI cancer (HR: 1.29; 95% CI: 1.04-1.61), especially in the >50-year-old group (HR: 1.32; 95% CI: 1.01-1.71), and increased sleep duration (>0âmin/year) was significantly associated with GI cancer in females (HR: 2.89; 95% CI: 1.14-7.30). CONCLUSIONS: Both sleep duration and annual changes in sleep duration were associated with the incidence of GI cancer.

BACKGROUND: Diabetic retinopathy and chronic kidney disease are both major complications of diabetes mellitus. We explored the relationship between retinal vessel density (VD) and albuminuria in diabetic patients without conventionally defined diabetic retinopathy. METHODS: The cross-sectional community-based Kailuan Diabetic Retinopathy Study included patients with type 2 diabetes without diabetic retinopathy who participated in the community-based longitudinal Kailuan study and who had undergone ocular fundus photography, kidney function assessment, and optical coherence tomographic angiography (OCT-angiography) for the assessment the retinal perfusion density (PD) and retinal VD. RESULTS: The study included 447 patients (mean age: 60.9 ± 9.7 years). Higher PD and VD were associated with a lower urinary albumin-creatinine ratio (uACR) (macular region: p = 0.007: standardized regression coefficient beta: -0.14; and p = 0.008, beta: -0.13, respectively; parafoveal region: p = 0.006, beta: -0.14; and p = 0.007, beta: -0.14, respectively) after adjusting for age and ocular axial length. In a reverse manner, higher uACR was associated with lower PD and VD (macular region: p = 0.009, beta: -0.14; and p = 0.01, beta: -0.14, respectively; parafoveal region: p = 0.008, beta: -0.14; and p = 0.01, beta: -0.14, respectively), after adjusting for diabetes duration, blood pressure, serum concentration of C-reactive protein and high-density lipoprotein cholesterol and ocular axial length. In a multivariable model, the prevalence of macroalbuminuria increased by 11% (95% CI: 2%, 18%) and 17% (95% CI: 3%, 30%), respectively, for each mm-1 decrease in VD and each unit decrease in PD. CONCLUSIONS AND RELEVANCE: After adjusting for systemic and ocular parameters, diabetic patients without diabetic retinopathy showed a reduction in OCT-angiographic retinal vascular measurements in association with systemic parameters indicating chronic kidney disease. Optical coherence tomographic (OCT)-angiographic retinal microvascular parameters may serve as markers for chronic kidney disease.

Purpose: To investigate the prevalence of epiretinal membranes (ERMs) and their risk factors in a Chinese population. Methods: The community-based Kailuan Eye Study included 14,440 participants (9835 male, 4605 female) with a mean age of 54.0 ± 13.3 years (range, 20-110 years). They underwent a systemic and ophthalmologic examination. ERMs were diagnosed on fundus photographs. Results: Retinal photographs assessable for the presence of ERMs were available for 13,295 (92.0%) individuals (9094 male) with a mean age of 53.6 ± 13.3 years (range, 20-110 years). ERMs were found in 1013 participants (1489 eyes) with a prevalence of 7.6% (95% confidence interval [CI], 7.1%-8.1%). Secondary ERMs caused by intraocular reasons were found 46 (4.5%) individuals (69 [4.6%] eyes). A higher prevalence of any ERMs (and of primary ERMs) was associated with older age (odds ratio [OR]: 1.08; 95% CI:1.07-1.10), higher body mass index (OR: 1.05; 95% CI: 1.00-1.11), higher prevalence of smoking (OR:1.43; 95% CI: 1.01-2.03), higher serum concentration of glucose (OR: 1.08; 95% CI: 1.04-1.13), and lower serum concentration of uric acid (OR: 0.99; 95% CI: 0.99-1.00). Visual acuity was significantly (P = 0.002) lower in eyes with premacular fibroses than in eyes with cellophane macular reflexes. Conclusions: In our cross-sectional community-based study, the prevalence of all ERMs was 7.6%. Among the group of participants with ERMs, secondary ERMs caused by intraocular reasons were detected in 46 (4.5%) individuals (69 [4.6%] eyes). A higher prevalence of any ERM and of primary ERMs was associated with older age, higher body mass index, higher prevalence of smoking, a higher serum concentration of glucose, and a lower serum concentration of uric acid.

BACKGROUND: The association between blood pressure change and kidney damage in patients with abnormal blood glucose remains unclear. The current study aimed to identify systolic blood pressure (SBP) trajectories among the prediabetic population and to determine their association with kidney damage after a long-term follow-up. METHODS: The incidence, development, and prognosis of diabetic kidney disease (INDEED) study is nested in the Kailuan cohort study with a focus on population with diabetes and prediabetes. We screened out people with prediabetes in 2006 and with more than three SBP records from 2006 to 2014 biennially. We used the latent mixture modeling to fit five groups of trajectories of SBP. In 2016, estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR), urinary albumin creatinine ratio (uACR), and urinary α1-microglobulin (α1MG), transferrin and α1-acid glycoprotein were measured, and the association between SBP trajectories and these markers was analyzed by linear regression and logistic regression models. RESULTS: Totally, 1451 participants with prediabetes and without kidney damage were identified in 2006. Five heterogeneous SBP trajectories were detected based on the longitudinal data from 2006 to 2014, as low-stable group (n = 323), moderate-stable group (n = 726), moderate-increasing group (n = 176), moderate-decreasing group (n = 181), and high-stable group (n = 45). Linear regression analysis showed that the moderate and high SBP groups had lower eGFR, higher uACR, higher urinary α1MG, higher transferrin, and higher α1-acid glycoprotein than the low-stable group. Multivariable analysis attenuated the association but did not change the statistical significance. CONCLUSIONS: Prediabetic patients with persistent high-level SBP trajectory or gradually increased SBP trajectory had severer kidney damage during follow-up.

Importance: Single self-reported measures of sleep duration are associated with adverse health outcomes; however, long-term patterns of self-reported sleep duration and their association with cardiovascular events (CVEs) and all-cause mortality remain unknown. Objective: To determine whether trajectories of long-term vs single-measure sleep duration are associated with subsequent risk of CVEs and all-cause mortality. Design, Setting, and Participants: The Kailuan study is a prospective, population-based cohort study that began in 2006. The present cohort included 52 599 Chinese adults without atrial fibrillation, myocardial infarction, stroke, or cancer to 2010. Trajectories in sleep duration from January 1, 2006, to December 31, 2010, were identified to investigate the association with risk of CVEs and all-cause mortality from January 1, 2010, to December 31, 2017. Data analysis was conducted from July 1 to October 31, 2019. Exposures: Habitual self-reported nocturnal sleep durations were collected in 2006, 2008, and 2010. Trajectories in sleep duration for 4 years were identified by latent mixture modeling. Main Outcomes and Measures: All-cause mortality and first incident CVEs (atrial fibrillation, myocardial infarction, and stroke) from 2010 to 2017 were confirmed by medical records. Based on the baseline sleep duration and patterns over time, 4 trajectories were categorized (normal stable, normal decreasing, low increasing, and low stable). Results: Of the 52 599 adults included in the study (mean [SD] age at baseline, 52.5 [11.8] years), 40 087 (76.2%) were male and 12 512 (23.8%) were female. Four distinct 4-year sleep duration trajectory patterns were identified: normal stable (range, 7.4 to 7.5 hours [n = 40 262]), normal decreasing (mean decrease from 7.0 to 5.5 hours [n = 8074]), low increasing (mean increase from 4.9 to 6.9 hours [n = 3384]), and low stable (range, 4.2 to 4.9 hours [n = 879]). During a mean (SD) follow-up of 6.7 (1.1) years, 2361 individuals died and 2406 had a CVE. Compared with the normal-stable pattern and adjusting for potential confounders, a low-increasing pattern was associated with increased risk of first CVEs (hazard ratio [HR], 1.22; 95% CI, 1.04-1.43), a normal-decreasing pattern was associated with increased risk of all-cause mortality (HR, 1.34; 95% CI, 1.15-1.57), and the low-stable pattern was associated with the highest risk of CVEs (HR, 1.47; 95% CI, 1.05-2.05) and death (HR, 1.50; 95% CI, 1.07-2.10). Conclusions and Relevance: In this study, sleep duration trajectories with lower or unstable patterns were significantly associated with increased risk of subsequent first CVEs and all-cause mortality. Longitudinal sleep duration patterns may assist in more precise identification of different at-risk groups for possible intervention. People reporting consistently sleeping less than 5 hours per night should be regarded as a population at higher risk for CVE and mortality.

AIM: To analyze the systemic factors including stroke history related to the retinal artery occlusion (RAO). METHODS: Patients with an exact diagnosis of RAO in the medical database of the Kailuan Corporation were identified as the case group. Five patients without RAO were added for each case from the Kailuan Study and matched for sex and age (age±2) as the control group. The Kailuan Study is a general population-based cohort study in northern China, in which a total of 101 510 individuals (81 110 men) aged 18-98y were recruited to participate in the study. And the participants were bi-annually re-examined. The database of both groups was from Kailuan study of 2010 cohort. All the information, including the demographic characteristics, lifestyle behaviors, medical comorbidities, medical history, family medical history, drug usage, anthropometric measurements, blood pressure measurement, blood sample laboratory assessment, urine tests, and other physical examinations were all collected. A retrospective nested case-control method was used for this study. Conditional multivariate logistic regression was used to analyze the risk factors with SPSS 13.0 software and SAS 9.3 software. RESULTS: A total of 45 patients were included as the case group, and the control group included 225 patients. In the case group, 28 patients (62.2%) had a central retinal artery occlusion (CRAO), and 17 patients (37.8%) had a branch retinal artery occlusion (BRAO). A total of 18 patients (40.0%) had a stroke before the RAO (mean 4.04±3.88y before the RAO), and 31 patients (81.6%) had infarctions or malacia identified by the cranial computed tomography (CT) scans. The basal ganglia and centrum semiovale were the most frequently involved regions. Plaques in the common carotid artery were present in 32 patients (88.9%). Conditional multivariate logistic regression analysis showed that the RAO was found to be associated with the history of stroke (P=0.0023, OR=28.794; 95%CI: 3.322-249.586). CONCLUSION: A history of stroke can significantly increase the incidence of RAO. Exists of plaque in the carotid artery is mean more than its severe stenosis for RAO.
RESUMEN
BACKGROUND: Several recent genome-wide association studies suggested insomnia and anemia may share some common genetic components. We thus examined whether adults with anemia had higher odds of having insomnia relative to those without anemia in a cross-sectional study and a meta-analysis. METHODS: Included in this cross-sectional study were 12,614 Chinese adults who participated in an ongoing cohort, the Kailuan Study. Anemia was defined as hemoglobin levels below 12.0 g/dL in women and 13.0 g/dL in men. Insomnia was assessed using the Chinese version of the Athens Insomnia Scale (AIS). A total AIS score ≥6 was considered insomnia. The association between anemia and insomnia was assessed using a logistic regression model, adjusting for potential confounders such as age, sex, chronic disease status, and plasma C-reactive protein concentrations. A meta-analysis was conducted using the fixed effects model to pool results from our study and three previously published cross-sectional studies on this topic in adult populations. RESULTS: Individuals with anemia had greater odds of having insomnia (adjusted odds ratio [OR]: 1.32; 95% confidence interval [CI]: 1.03-1.70) compared with individuals without anemia. A significant association persisted after we excluded individuals with chronic inflammation, as suggested by C-reactive protein levels >1 mg/L (adjusted OR: 1.68; 95% CI: 1.22-2.32). The meta-analysis results, including 22,134 participants, also identified a positive association between anemia and insomnia (pooled OR: 1.39; 95% CI: 1.22-1.57). CONCLUSIONS: The presence of anemia was significantly associated with a higher likelihood of having insomnia in adults. Due to the nature of the cross-sectional study design, results should be interpreted with caution.

BACKGROUND: Pulse wave velocity (PWV) is a marker of arterial stiffness, which represents sub-clinical atherosclerosis. Pulsatile stress and high-sensitivity C-reactive protein (hs-CRP) are associated with arteriosclerosis. However, there is no prospective data confirming whether changes in pulsatile stress and inflammatory markers affect the progression of arterial stiffness. The aim of this study was to investigate the relationships over time between the effects of changes in pulsatile stress and hs-CRP, and arterial stiffness progression during a 2-year follow-up. METHODS: We performed a longitudinal study involving 3978 participants. All participants underwent a physical examination in 2010-2011 and 2012-2013, during which we measured participants' hs-CRP levels, brachial-ankle pulse wave velocity (baPWV), and pulsatile stress. RESULTS: Baseline hs-CRP was correlated with baPWV (r = 0.18, P = 0.000); however the correlation was weaker than that with systolic blood pressure (r = 0.65), pulsatile stress (r = 0.57), and rate-pressure product (r = 0.58). Multiple linear regression analysis demonstrated that changes in pulsatile stress, mean arterial pressure, and low-density lipoprotein-C (LDL-C) were positively correlated with changes in baPWV, with correlation coefficients of 0.27, 0.25, and 0.07, respectively, but not with changes in hs-CRP. Moreover, each 100-aU increase in pulsatile stress, 1 mmHg increase in mean blood pressure, and 1 mmol/L increase in LDL-C was associated with a 3 cm/s, 4.78 cm/s, and 17.37 cm/s increase in baPWV, respectively. CONCLUSIONS: Pulsatile stress increases are associated with arterial stiffness progression, but that changes in hs-CRP had no effect on arterial stiffness progression. Hs-CRP may simply be a marker of inflammation in arterial stiffness and has no association with arterial stiffness progression.
RESUMEN
Purpose: To examine the role of ocular axial length as an ocular parameter for the prevalence and severity of diabetic retinopathy (DR). Methods: The cross-sectional Kailuan Diabetic Retinopathy Study included patients with diabetes who participated in the community-based longitudinal Kailuan Study and who had undergone ocular fundus photography. The fundus photographs were graded using the Early Treatment of Diabetic Retinopathy Study criteria. Results: The study included 1096 patients with diabetes (mean age: 60.8 ± 9.4 years; axial length: 23.37 ± 0.92 mm). In binary regression analysis, a higher DR prevalence was associated with shorter axial length (P = 0.007; odds ratio [OR]: 0.81; 95% confidence interval [CI]: 0.70, 0.95) after adjusting for longer known duration of diabetes (P = 0.02; OR: 1.13; 95%CI: 1.02, 1.24) and higher fasting blood glucose concentration (P < 0.001; OR: 1.38; 95%CI: 1.26, 1.52). A more severe DR stage was associated (regression coefficient r: 0.46) with shorter ocular axial length (P = 0.047; standardized regression coefficient ß: -0.06) after adjusting for higher fasting blood glucose (P < 0.001; ß: 0.41) and longer known duration of diabetes (P = 0.045; ß: 0.07). Longer axial length was associated with a lower DR prevalence (P = 0.003; ß: -0.10) after adjusting for younger age (P < 0.001), male sex (P < 0.001), higher body mass index (P = 0.016), and lower fasting blood glucose concentration (P = 0.036). Conclusions: After adjusting for systemic risk factors, DR prevalence decreased by 19% (95%CI: 5, 30) for each millimeter increase in axial length. With longer axial length being a surrogate for axial myopia, the marked increase in myopia prevalence worldwide may lead to a relative decrease in the prevalence and incidence of DR in future.
