Objective:
To establish a risk prediction model for diabetic peripheral neuropathy (DPN) among patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM), so as to provide a basis for DPN prevention and control.
Methods:
T2DM inpatients aged 18-65 years admitted to the department of endocrinology and metabolism at Affiliated Hospital Shandong Second Medical University from April to December 2024 were selected as study subjects. Age, T2DM duration, hypertension history, 25-hydroxyvitamin D, serum C-peptide, and high density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL-C) were collected through electronic medical records. Risk predictors of DPN among T2DM patients were screened using multivariable logistic regression model, and a nomogram was established. The receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve, calibration curve and decision curve analysis were employed to evaluate the discrimination, calibration and clinical utility of the nomogram, respectively.
Results:
A total of 598 T2DM patients were enrolled, including 359 (60.03%) males and 239 (39.97%) females. The median age was 54.50 (interquartile range, 15.00) years, the median T2DM duration was 6.00 (interquartile range, 9.00) years. There were 262 cases of T2DM patients with DPN, accounting for 43.81%. Multivariable logistic regression identified hypertension history (OR=3.260, 95%CI: 2.220-4.790), alcohol use history (OR=2.150, 95%CI: 1.390-3.310), diabetes complications (OR=0.430, 95%CI: 0.270-0.680), T2DM duration (OR=1.040, 95%CI: 1.010-1.070), body mass index (OR=1.130, 95%CI: 1.070-1.200), 25-hydroxyvitamin D (OR=0.930, 95%CI: 0.910-0.960), and HDL-C (OR=0.400, 95%CI: 0.230-0.720) as risk predictors for DPN among T2DM patients. The area under the ROC curve of the established risk prediction model was 0.774 (95%CI: 0.737-0.812), with a sensitivity of 0.710 and a specificity of 0.723. The calibration curve after repeated sampling calibration approached the standard curve. Decision curve analysis showed that when the risk threshold probability was 0.2 to 0.4, the model demonstrates favorable clinical applicability.
Conclusion
The risk prediction model established in this study has favorable discrimination, calibration, and clinical utility, can effectively predict the risk of DPN among T2DM patients aged 18-65 years.

Objective To investigate the biomechanical factors of the lower limbs that affect the mechanical energy of baseball batting.Methods C3D data were collected using a motion capture system and imported into Visual 3D to establish a Hanavan multi-rigid-body human model and a rigid-body model of the bat.Using a prepared pipeline command,the angular velocities and joint torques of the hip,knee,ankle joints,and trunk around the X,Y,and Z axes were calculated and exported.Stepwise multiple linear regression analysis was performed between independent and dependent variables using SPSS,and the factors and dependent variables were incorporated into the regression model.Results The top four independent variables that had the greatest impact on the mechanical energy of the bat were as follows:x19 right ankle joint plantar flexion/dorsiflexion torque(β=91.97),x2 left ankle joint inversion/eversion torque(β=91.74),x25 right hip joint flexion/extension torque(β=91.58),and x3 left ankle joint internal rotation/external rotation torque(β=91.50).Conclusions There is a strong correlation between the right hip joint flexion/extension torque and mechanical work of the bat.The batter transmits energy to the upper limbs by producing a right hip joint extension torque to rotate the trunk and pelvis.There is a close relationship between the adduction and abduction torques of the left ankle joint and mechanical work of the bat,which are used for body braking in the early stages of batting and body rotation in later stages.It is necessary to conduct specific strength training for the adductors of the left ankle joint,extensors of the right hip joint,and plantar flexors of the right ankle joint to enhance batting power.

Lamin B1 (LMNB1) is highly expressed in liver cancer tissues, and its influence and mechanism on the proliferation of hepatocellular carcinoma cells were explored by knocking down the expression of the protein. In liver cancer cells, siRNAs were used to knock down LMNB1. Knockdown effects were detected by Western blotting. Changes in telomerase activity were detected by telomeric repeat amplification protocol assay (TRAP) experiments. Telomere length changes were detected by quantitative real-time polymerase chain reaction (qPCR). CCK8, cloning formation, transwell and wound healing were performed to detect changes in its growth, invasion and migration capabilities. The lentiviral system was used to construct HepG2 cells that steadily knocked down LMNB1. Then the changes of telomere length and telomerase activity were detected, and the cell aging status was detected by SA-β-gal senescence staining. The effects of tumorigenesis were detected by nude mouse subcutaneous tumorigenesis experiments, subsequent histification staining of tumors, SA-β-gal senescence staining, fluorescence in situ hybridization (FISH) for telomere analysis and other experiments. Finally, the method of biogenesis analysis was used to find the expression of LMNB1 in clinical liver cancer tissues, and its relationship with clinical stages and patient survival. Knockdown of LMNB1 in HepG2 and Hep3B cells significantly reduced telomerase activity, cell proliferation, migration and invasion abilities. Experiments in cells and tumor formation in nude mice had demonstrated that stable knockdown of LMNB1 reduced telomerase activity, shortened telomere length, senesced cells, reduced cell tumorigenicity and KI-67 expression. Bioinformatics analysis showed that LMNB1 was highly expressed in liver cancer tissues and correlated with tumor stage and patient survival. In conclusion, LMNB1 is overexpressed in liver cancer cells, and it is expected to become an indicator for evaluating the clinical prognosis of liver cancer patients and a target for precise treatment.

OBJECTIVE:
To investigate the associations between chronic kidney disease (CKD) and body mass index (BMI), waist circumference(WC), waist-to-height ratio (WheiR) in Chinese adults.
METHODS:
A total of 26 655 participants, who voluntarily attended annual health examination at the Health Management Center in the Third Xiangya Hospital of Central South University from June 2013 to February 2014, were enrolled for this study. Logistic regression and receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve analysis were performed.
RESULTS:
The prevalence rate of CKD was 9.6% and 3.1% in male and female subjects, respectively. Multivariate logistic regression analysis showed that BMI, WC and WheiR were independent risk factors for CKD in diabetic male and hypertensive male subjects (P<0.01). However, no association between these obesity indices and CKD was found in women after multivariate adjustment. In diabetic male subjects, when BMI≥28.7 kg/m(2), WC=90.7 cm and WheiR=0.56, the sensitivity and specificity prediction for CKD was 24.8%, 58.5%, 45.5% and 83.3%, 54.4%, 69.6%, respectively. In hypertensive male subjects, when the optimum cut-off points for BMI, WC and WheiR were ≥
27.0 kg/m(2), 91.2 cm and 0.54, the sensibility prediction for CKD were 41.0%, 47.0% and 50.1%, respectively, while the specificity prediction were 68.0%, 63.0% and 61.4%, respectively. The area under the ROC curve of BMI, WC, WheiR for CKD prediction were 0.56, 0.57, 0.59 in diabetic male subjects and 0.54, 0.56, 0.57 in hypertensive male subjects, respectively.
CONCLUSION
BMI, WC and WheiR are associated with the increased risk for CKD in diabetic or hypertensive male subjects. However, the value for these obesity indices is limited in screening CKD.
