Association between blood trace elements and degrees of chronic kidney disease-associated pruritus in maintenance hemodialysis patients by Bao Min-rui, Liu Yun, Xu Shi-lin, Tan Rong-shao, Zou De-’e, Liang Wei-feng, Li Shu-ting, Chen Wen-xuan, Liu Yan, Zhong Xiao-shi

“…Objective To explore the relationship between blood trace elements and degrees of chronic kidney disease-related pruritus（CKD-aP）in maintenance hemodialysis（MHD）patients.Methods For this single-center and cross-sectional study, 121 patients receiving regulartreated at our blood purification center in September 2019 were enrolled.Their demographic, laboratory and clinical parameters were recorded and the blood levels of manganese, zinc, copper, selenium and lead were measured before dialysis.The degrees of CKD-aP were evaluated by Dirk R Kuypers scoring.They were divided into four groups of non-pruritus, mild/moderate/severe pruritus.The clinical characteristics of each group were analyzed.Multivariate ordinal Logistic regression was employed for analyzing the associations between the degrees of CKD-aP and blood levels of various elements.Results A total of 121 patients were enrolled, including 45 patients without pruritus was none（n=45）,mild（n=59）,moderate（n=12）and severe（n=5）.The proportion of male was higher than that of female in mild/severe pruritus group and the proportion of female higher than that of malein moderate pruritus group（P<0.05）.The greater degree of pruritus, the higher level of C-reactive protein（P<0.05）.Although the levels of blood trace elements showed no statistical significance among four groups.Univariate analysis revealed that blood manganese was correlated with a higher pruritus degree whereas other trace elements had no correlation with pruritus degree.After adjusting various confounding factors, multivariate ordinal Logistic regression analysis indicated that a lower blood level of manganese was independently associated with a greater degree of CKD-aP in MHD patients（P<0.05）.Conclusion A low blood level of manganese may play an important role in CKD-aP in MHD patients.…”

Correlation of atorvastatin with subjective memory deficits: a study from the NHANES and FAERS databases by Hao Zhang, Hua Huang, Panli Zhao

“…BackgroundPost-marketing regulatory data suggest a potential association between atorvastatin use and memory protection; however, findings from observational studies have been inconsistent and remain a subject of controversy.ObjectiveThis study aims to investigate the correlation between atorvastatin exposure and subjective memory deficits, with the objective of providing more precise safety and efficacy information for its clinical use.MethodsWe utilized two primary data sources: the National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (NHANES) covering the years 2001 to 2018, and the Food and Drug Administration Adverse Event Reporting System (FAERS) spanning 2011 to 2018. We systematically analyzed the correlation between atorvastatin exposure and memory function using a range of statistical methods, including descriptive statistics, multivariate logistic regression, and receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curves.ResultsIn the analysis of the NHANES database, multivariate logistic regression modeling, after controlling for various factors such as demographic characteristics and lifestyle, revealed a significant association between atorvastatin use and a reduced risk of memory loss (OR = 0.47; 95% CI, 0.15–0.79; p = 0.004). …”
