This systematic review aimed to synthesize the literature behind first-trimester biomarkers associated with PPROM and compare it to literature within the same area for preterm birth.Methods: A search strategy was performed in PubMed, Embase, and CINAHL from 1993 to 2024 resulting in 14,889 articles screened by two independent authors and presented according to PRISMA guidelines. The biomarkers from the included articles were categorized into four medical headings: The immune system, metabolism and endocrinology, hematology, and reproduction.Results: Biomarkers associated with PPROM were primarily related to the immune system. C-reactive protein (CRP) and white blood cells (WBC) were often investigated for an association with PPROM but displayed divergent results of varying quality. Decreased concentrations of placental growth factor (PlGF) were associated with PPROM and spontaneous preterm birth, potentially highlighting a shared etiology, making soluble fms-like tyrosine kinase-1 (sFlt-1) interesting to investigate as well.Conclusion: Most biomarkers were examined in single studies, providing limited data to make significant conclusions about each biomarker. This review encourages further investigation of CRP, WBC, PlGF, and sFlt-1.","PeriodicalId":8921,"journal":{"name":"Biomarkers","volume":" ","pages":"271-283"},"PeriodicalIF":2.0,"publicationDate":"2025-05-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143571956","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Ethanol administration induced significant gastric and duodenal ulcerative lesions, while AELPL pretreatment (25, 50 and 100 mg/kg) provided a dose-dependent mucosal protection comparable to famotidine, a widely used drug for the treatment of gastric ulcers. AELPL like famotidine also restored gastric pH and volume, counteracting ethanol-induced acidity. Biochemical analyses demonstrated that AELPL like famotidine mitigated oxidative stress by reducing lipid peroxidation, carbonylated proteins and hydrogen peroxide levels, whereas it restored non-protein thiols content in the stomach, duodenum and plasma in a dose-dependent manner. Additionally, AELPL restored antioxidant enzyme activities including catalase, superoxide dismutase, glutathione peroxidase and glutathione-S-transferase. AELPL also reduced ethanol-induced increase in free iron, ionized calcium and interleukin-6 levels, indicating its anti-inflammatory potential.Conclusion: These findings suggest that AELPL exhibits gastroduodenal protective effects against ethanol-induced damage, with efficacy comparable to famotidine. Protective mechanisms likely involve modulation of oxidative stress and inflammation, supporting AELPL's potential as a therapeutic agent for gastroduodenal injuries.","PeriodicalId":8921,"journal":{"name":"Biomarkers","volume":" ","pages":"256-270"},"PeriodicalIF":2.0,"publicationDate":"2025-05-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143959060","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Individualised approaches to biomarker monitoring may be of higher potential value in assessing player health and recovery compared to population-based reference ranges. We aimed to explore the application of individualised adaptive reference ranges (IARR) in English Premier League (EPL) soccer players using a POC biomarker for C-Reactive Protein (CRP) as a marker of inflammation. Using historical data collected from players' CRP values during the 2019-2020 season, we evaluated the effectiveness of static and IARR in identifying abnormal values and reported sensitivity and specificity at a 5% significance level. Our analysis confirmed that monitoring with IARR is more effective in identifying true abnormalities compared to population-based static reference ranges, particularly when the intra-individual variability is considerably lower than inter-individual variability. The application of IARR for blood monitoring data could assist the practitioner in identifying periods where a player may require performance (e.g. workload management and recovery practices) or medical support from the multi-disciplinary team. However, IARR serve more as an early warning system than a diagnostic tool. Thus, significant care is needed to prevent misuse and misinterpretation when implementing this strategy in real-world settings.","PeriodicalId":8921,"journal":{"name":"Biomarkers","volume":" ","pages":"232-245"},"PeriodicalIF":2.0,"publicationDate":"2025-05-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143514643","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

FBS and lipid profiles including TC, TG and HDL were measured using the Cobas 6000 c501 system, while FI was analyzed with the Cobas 6000 c601 system. Omentin-1 concentrations were determined using the enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) with a human omentin ELISA kit.Results: FI, HOMA-IR and lipid profiles were significantly elevated in WPS and cessation groups. Omentin-1 and DBP levels significantly decreased in both groups compared to non-smokers. Increased WPS duration leads to reduced BMI, WC and DBP, while cessation duration decreases FBS and SBP. A negative association was identified among omentin-1 with FBS and O2.Conclusion: WPS and its cessation adversely affect metabolic health, reducing omentin-1 levels and increasing the risk of metabolic disorders.

This study aimed to systematically investigate the association between various inflammatory markers and DCM incidence.Methods: The data were derived from the UK Biobank database. Systemic inflammation markers in this study encompassed peripheral immune cell counts and their ratios and the low-grade inflammation score (INFLA-score). The Cox proportional hazards regression, restricted cubic splines model, and segmented regression were adopted to assess the association between systemic inflammation markers and DCM incidence. Additionally, the subgroup Cox analysis stratified across sex was also performed.Results: A total of 351,148 participants were enrolled in this study, and 377 subjects developed DCM during a mean follow-up of 12.21 years. The positive association between C-reactive protein (CRP), neutrophil-to-lymphocyte ratio (NLR), and CRP-to-lymphocyte ratio (CLR) and DCM incident risk was found (CRP: HR = 1.190, P = 0.001; NLR: HR = 1.315, P = 0.033; CLR: HR = 1.206, P < 0.001), while the lymphocyte-to-monocyte ratio (LMR) was negatively associated with DCM incident risk (HR = 0.756; P = 0.033). Furthermore, the increased risk of DCM incidence was significantly and nonlinearly correlated with the reduction of platelet count (HR = 0.543; P = 0.002). In the subgroup analysis, sex-specific inflammation markers related to DCM development were noticed.Conclusions: The study has underlined that multiple inflammation markers were significantly associated with the risk of incident DCM, which would provide evidence for the aetiological study of DCM.","PeriodicalId":8921,"journal":{"name":"Biomarkers","volume":" ","pages":"192-199"},"PeriodicalIF":2.0,"publicationDate":"2025-03-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143070730","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
