Objective:To evaluate the effects of the Chinese visceral adiposity index(CVAI)and the Triglyceride-Glucose(TyG)index on the risk of hypertension among the elderly in the Zhengxiangbai Banner community of Inner Mongolia.Methods:This study selected elderly individuals who underwent physical examinations at the community health service center in Zhengxiangbai Banner, Inner Mongolia, from January 2024 to July 2024 as the study population.Based on the diagnostic criteria for hypertension, participants were divided into hypertensive and non-hypertensive groups.Data on demographics, body mass index(BMI), waist circumference(WC), fasting blood glucose(FSG), and blood lipids were collected.The CVAI, TyG, Triglyceride Glucose-Body Waist Circumference(TyG-WC), and Triglyceride Glucose-Body Mass Index(TyG-BMI)were calculated.Subjects were categorized into quartiles(1st to 4th)based on CVAI, TyG, TyG-WC, and TyG-BMI.Multivariate logistic regression analysis was employed to explore the relationship between these indicators and the risk of hypertension in the elderly.Results:This study included a total of 3, 319 elderly subjects, comprising 1, 743 individuals in the hypertensive group and 1, 576 in the non-hypertensive group.Multivariate logistic regression analysis indicated that the fourth quartile of the CVAI was a risk factor for hypertension when compared to the first quartile.Additionally, the second, third, and fourth quartiles of the TyG-BMI were identified as risk factors for hypertension relative to the first quartile.The analysis of the correlation strength between various obesity indexes and hypertension revealed that CVAI, TyG-WC, and TyG-BMI were independently correlated with the risk of hypertension.Notably, TyG-BMI exhibited a stronger association with hypertension( OR=1.006, 95% CI: 1.004-1.008).ROC curve analysis demonstrated that TyG-BMI possessed superior predictive ability for hypertension, with an AUC of 0.587(95% CI: 0.568-0.607).Furthermore, Decision Curve Analysis(DCA)also indicated that TyG-BMI had enhanced predictive capability.Further stratification by gender revealed that TyG-BMI in elderly men was independently correlated with the risk of hypertension( P<0.001), while CVAI in elderly women was independently correlated with the risk of hypertension( P<0.05).ROC curve analysis indicated that TyG-BMI in elderly men had better predictive ability for hypertension(AUC=0.582, 95% CI: 0.554~0.610).The difference in AUC compared to CVAI was statistically significant( P<0.01).DCA analysis further confirmed that TyG-BMI exhibited superior predictive ability. Conclusions:Our findings suggest that both CVAI and TyG-BMI exhibit superior predictive value for hypertension, with TyG-BMI demonstrating a particularly strong predictive capability in elderly men.

Nonunion of osteoporotic vertebral fractures (OVF), predominantly affecting the elderly, can lead to intractable pain, vertebral collapse, progressive kyphotic deformity, and neurological impairment, significantly compromising patients′ quality of life. There exists considerable debate on diagnosis and management of OVF, encompassing key issues such as clinical diagnosis and staging criteria for nonunion, surgical indications and procedure selection, and postoperative rehabilitation planning. Currently, there lacks standardized clinical guideline and expert consensus on the diagnosis and management of OVF nonunion in China. To address this gap, Minimally Invasive Surgery Group of Chinese Orthopedic Association, Osteoporosis Committee of Chinese Association of Orthopedic Surgeons, Prevention and Rehabilitation Committee for Osteoporosis of Chinese Association of Rehabilitation Medicine and Minimally Invasive Orthopedic Surgery Branch of China Association for Geriatric Care jointly organized domestic experts in spinal surgery, endocrinology, and rehabilitation to formulate the Clinical guideline for the diagnosis and treatment for nonunion of osteoporotic vertebral fractures ( version 2025), based on existing literature and clinical experience and adhering to principles of scientific rigor and practicality. The guideline provided 13 evidence-based recommendations encompassing diagnosis and treatment of OVF nonunion, aiming to standardize its clinical management.

Family with sequence similarity 3 member A(FAM3A),a novel mitochondrial protein,plays a pivotal role in hepatic glucose and lipid metabolism by enhancing ATP synthesis and secretion and mod-ulating the ATP-P2 receptor-Akt signaling pathway.Dysregulation of FAM3A is closely associated with the pathogenesis of non-alcoholic fatty liver disease(NAFLD)and type 2 diabetes mellitus(T2DM).In this study,targeting FAM3A as a therapeutic candidate,we conducted virtual screening to identify 47 small-molecule compounds with potential binding activity.Surface plasmon resonance(SPR)analysis re-vealed three compounds exhibiting high binding affinity to FAM3 A.Further structural characterization of the FAM3A-compound complexes,combined with intermolecular interaction analysis,elucidated the binding mode of the lead compound Index 2(taxifolin)to FAM3A at atomic resolution.These findings provide critical insights into the molecular mechanisms underlying ligand-FAM3A interactions and deliver valuable chemical scaffolds for the development of therapeutics targeting NAFLD and T2DM.This work establishes a foundation for advancing drug discovery efforts focused on FAM3A-mediated metabolic disor-ders.
