Insulin resistance (IR) is a common pathological feature of metabolic diseases, including obesity, non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD), and T2DM, which can reduce the metabolic response of target cells to insulin, leading to impaired ability of circulating or injected insulin to lower blood glucose levels at the whole-body level. This review summarizes the common pathogenic mechanism of T2DM and NAFLD, IR and its concomitant factors, and the current status of traditional Chinese medicine compound therapy, providing a theoretical basis for clinical medicine treatment.","PeriodicalId":497271,"journal":{"name":"MEDS Clinical Medicine","volume":"34 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"135502131","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The research related to cardiovascular diseases is mainly based on traditional two-dimensional (2D) cell models and animal models, but due to some limitations, they cannot be fully applied to the research of cardiovascular disease pathogenesis and treatment methods. Organoid technology is a kind of three-dimensional (3D) biological tissue engineering constructed in vitro, which can highly simulate the cellular structure and physiological function of organs in vivo, providing a new direction and idea for the research of cardiovascular diseases. Therefore, cardiac organoid, as an effective complement to traditional cardiovascular disease models, has great potential in the study of disease mechanisms, drug experimentation, regenerative medicine and many other fields. This paper summarizes the construction methods of cardiac organoids and their applications in cardiovascular diseases, and also presents its development prospects, challenges and directions to be improved.","PeriodicalId":497271,"journal":{"name":"MEDS Clinical Medicine","volume":"156 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"135102838","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

We aim to evaluate the potential impact of AT on in-hospital mortality in HS, and how this impact is influenced by the Acute Physiological and Chronic Health Evaluation (APACHE) IV score. We identified individuals with hemorrhagic stroke as the primary diagnosis (n=1654) using individual patient data from a national multicenter cohort study (eICU database; n=200859). With in-hospital mortality as the primary outcome, hemorrhagic stroke patients were split into the anticoagulant therapy group and the other treatment (OT) group. First, univariate and multivariate logistic regression analyses were conducted to identify independent predictors of in-hospital mortality in patients receiving different forms of treatment. Next, the independent predictor's interaction with the AT status was evaluated.Resultly, 8.3%(n=137) of patients were in AT group. The survival rate in the AT group was significantly higher than that in the OT group (87.6% vs. 78.8%; P < 0.05). AT was an independent predictor of in-hospital mortality risk in the entire cohort [OR= 0.542, 95%CI(0.298-0.985), P<0.05], and APACHE IV score [OR= 1.055, 95%CI(1.048-1.061), P<0.05] score was an independent predictor of in-hospital mortality in the OT group in multivariate logistic regression (P< 0.05). The APACHE IV score was used to predict the risk for the entire cohort (the area under the receiver operator characteristic curve was 0.825 [(95% CI (0.799-0.851)]. Patients who started anticoagulant therapy seemed to benefit more when the predicted in-hospital mortality risk was more than 6.9%, and patients without anticoagulant therapy seemed to benefit more when the predicted in-hospital mortality risk was less than 6.9%. In conclusion, patients diagnosed with hemorrhagic stroke benefit from AT. APACHE IV score has a better ability to predict in-hospital mortality risk. Specifically, the higher the predicted risk of in-hospital mortality, the greater the benefits of anticoagulant therapy.","PeriodicalId":497271,"journal":{"name":"MEDS Clinical Medicine","volume":"11 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"135211407","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
