Association between Metrnl and carotid atherosclerosis in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus by Chunmei Li, Chunmei Li, Qiongzhu Huang, Qiongzhu Huang, Yanqian Zhuang, Yanqian Zhuang, Pin Chen, Pin Chen, Yiyang Lin, Yiyang Lin

“…The ROC curve used to identify the diagnostic accuracy of serum Metrnl level in the predication of T2DM subjects with carotid atherosclerosis revealed an area under the curve (AUC) of 0.742. The optimal cut-off value was 0.61 ng/ml with a sensitivity of 77.6% and a specificity of 58.8%.ConclusionsThis cross-sectional study clearly demonstrated that elevated serum Metrnl level was significantly associated with higher risk of the presence of carotid atherosclerosis. …”

Tuberculosis and HIV/AIDS-attributed mortalities and associated sociodemographic factors in Papua New Guinea: evidence from the comprehensive health and epidemiological surveillanc... by Chalapati Rao, Willie Pomat, Tony Okely, Bang Nguyen Pham, Norah Abori, Vinson D Silas, Ronny Jorry

“…This study examines TB and HIV/AIDS mortalities and associated sociodemographic factors in PNG.Method As part of a longitudinal study, verbal autopsy (VA) interviews were conducted using the WHO 2016 VA Instrument to collect data of 926 deaths occurred in the communities within the catchment areas of the Comprehensive Health and Epidemiological Surveillance System from 2018 to 2020.InterVA-5 cause of deaths analytical tool was used to assign specific causes of death (COD). Multinomial logistic regression analyses were conducted to identify associated sociodemographic factors, estimate adjusted ORs (AOR), 95% CIs and p values.Result TB and HIV/AIDS were the leading CODs from infectious diseases, attributed to 9% and 8% of the total deaths, respectively.Young adults (25–34 years) had the highest proportion of deaths from TB (20%) and the risk of dying from TB among this age group was five times more likely than those aged 75+ years (AOR: 5.5 (95% CI 1.4 to 21.7)). …”
