Objective To investigate the association between nutritional status and serum hepcidin and pentraxin 3(PTX3)levels in patients undergoing maintenance hemodialysis(MHD).Methods A total of 76 patients with MHD who met the inclusion criteria were recruited from the hemodialysis center at the Affiliated Hospital of Chengde Medical University.Nutritional status was assessed using the Subjective Global Assessment(SGA),which categorizes patients into three grades:SGA-A,SGA-B,and SGA-C.Serum levels of PTX3 and hepcidin were mea-sured by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay(ELISA).Statistical analyses were conducted using SPSS software.One-way analysis of variance(ANOVA)was applied to compare differences across the three SGA groups.Logistic regression analysis was performed to identify influencing factors,and receiver operating characteristic(ROC)curve analysis was used to evaluate diagnostic value.Among the participants,45 patients were classified as malnourished based on SGA-B and SGA-C scores,while those with SGA-A constituted the well-nourished control group.Results Among the 76 MHD patients,59.2%were malnourished.We then compared clinical characteristics across the three groups.The results showed that the malnourished group was older and exhibited significantly higher levels of hs-CRP,PTX3,and hepcidin(P<0.05),while serum albumin,creatinine,and phosphorus levels were significantly lower(P<0.05).Pearson correlation analysis revealed positive correlations between SGA grades and hs-CRP,PTX3,and hepcidin levels(all P<0.05).Logistic regression analysis with"malnutrition"as the dependent variable indicated that elevated hs-CRP,PTX3,and hepcidin levels,along with age and male gender,were associated with increased risk of malnutrition in MHD patients,whereas higher serum phosphorus and creatinine levels were protec-tive factors.Further multivariate logistic regression analysis demonstrated that serum PTX3 level was an independent risk factor for malnutrition(P=0.032),while higher creatinine level was an independent protective factor(P=0.047).ROC curve analysis showed that the combination of serum PTX3 and creatinine levels had a high diagnostic value for identifying malnutrition in MHD patients,yielding an AUC of 0.789(P<0.001),a Youden index of 0.448,sensitivity of 77.8%,and specificity of 71.0%.Conclusions Elevated levels of PTX3 and hepcidin,along with reduced serum creatinine levels,are associated with an increased risk of malnutrition in patients undergoing MHD.Notably,elevated serum PTX3 and decreased serum creatinine independently predict malnutrition in this population and demonstrate high predictive value.

Objective To investigate the association between remnant cholesterol(RC)and clinicopatho-logical parameters in patients with IgA nephropathy(IgAN),and to assess the clinical significance of RC in the progression and management of IgAN.Methods A total of 366 patients with a biopsy-proven diagnosis of IgAN were consecutively enrolled in this retrospective study.Clinical and pathological data were systematically collected,and RC was calculated.Participants were stratified into two groups according to the median RC value.Baseline characteristics were compared between these groups.The association between RC and the presence of tubular atrophy/interstitial fibrosis(T1/2 lesions)in IgAN patients was evaluated using binary logistic regression,restricted cubic spline(RCS)analysis,receiver operating characteristic(ROC)curve analysis,and subgroup analyses.Results In this study,the high-RC group exhibited significantly higher levels of body weight,body mass index(BMI),systolic blood pressure(SBP),diastolic blood pressure(DBP),triglycerides(TG),total cholesterol(TC),non-high-density lipoprotein cholesterol(non-HDL-C),uric acid(UA),complement 3(C3),and 24-hour urinary protein,as well as lower levels of albumin(ALB),estimated glomerular filtration rate(eGFR),and high-density lipoprotein cholesterol(HDL-C),compared to the low-RC group.Patients with T1/2 lesions showed elevated levels of SBP,DBP,TC,non-HDL-C,UA,24-hour urinary protein,and RC,along with reduced levels of hemoglobin(Hb),ALB,and eGFR,relative to those with T0 lesions.Multivariate logistic regression analysis indicated that increased RC and decreased eGFR were independent risk factors for the presence of T1/2 lesions in patients with IgAN(P<0.05).RCS analysis revealed a linear association between RC and the likelihood of T1/2 lesions(non-linearity P=0.343).The area under the receiver operating characteristic curve(AUC)for a predictive model incorporating RC,Hb,UA,and eGFR was 0.833,indicating good discriminative ability.Subgroup analyses consistently demonstrated a significant associa-tion between RC and the risk of T1/2 lesions,with no statistically significant interactions observed across subgroups(all P>0.05).Conclusion RC can reflect the severity of both clinical and pathological manifestations in patients with IgAN,making RC monitoring a potentially valuable tool for assessing disease progression in clinical practice.

Objective:To analyze the clinical efficacy of three-dimensional (3D) navigation-assisted percutaneous sacroiliac screw fixation in the treatment of Tile C1 pelvic fractures.Methods:A total of 12 patients with Tile C1 pelvic fractures who underwent percutaneous sacroiliac screw fixation assisted by 3D navigation in Liuzhou People's Hospital Affiliated to Guangxi Medical University from September 2019 to March 2022 were retrospectively analyzed. There were 8 males and 4 females, aged 43.08±16.93 years (range, 21-72 years). 24 patients with Tile C1 pelvic fractures who underwent fluoroscopy-assisted percutaneous sacroiliac screw internal fixation during the same period were selected as controls by pairing them according to age and sex in a ratio of 1:2. There were 15 males and 9 females, aged 45.75±11.69 years (range, 32-75 years). The operation time, intraoperative blood loss, number of screws, intraoperative fluoroscopy times, guide pin drilling times and pelvic function scores were compared between the two groups. The quality of pelvic fracture reduction was evaluated based on the Matta scoring criteria, the screw cut-out rate was calculated according to the Lonstein evaluation criteria, and the degree of postoperative heterotopic ossification was evaluated according to the Brooker grading system.Results:All patients were followed up for 18.1±4.7 months (range, 12-30 months). In the 3D navigation group, the operation time was 110.67±44.85 min, the number of intraoperative fluoroscopies was 24.42±9.94, and the number of guided needle drilling was 7.33±4.70, which was lower than 145.00±48.51 min, 75.75±29.47, and 13.92±5.78 in the fluoroscopically-assisted group, and the differences were statistically significant ( P<0.05). At the last follow-up, the Majeed pelvic function score of 3D navigation group was 89.08±3.89, and the excellent and good rate was 100% (12/12). The score of fluoroscopy-assisted group was 74.00±10.71, and the excellent and good rate was 79% (19/24). The difference was statistically significant ( χ2=10.23, P<0.001). The excellent and good rate of Matta grading was 92% (11/12) in the 3D navigation group and 79% (19/24) in the fluoroscopic assisted group, showing no significant difference between the two groups ( χ2=2.93, P=0.403). The screw cut-out rate and heterotopic ossification rate in the 3D navigation group were 17% (2/12) and 8% (1/12), which were lower than 71% (17/24) and 13% (3/24) in the fluoroscopy-assisted group, and the differences were statistically significant ( χ2=9.76, P=0.021; χ2=31.71, P<0.001). Conclusion:3D navigation-assisted percutaneous sacroiliac screw fixation for Tile C1 pelvic fractures can reduce the operation time and radiation exposure, improve the postoperative pelvic function, and reduce the incidence of screw cut-out and heterotopic ossification.
