RESUMO

Background: Current information were still limited regarding clinical characteristics, diagnosis, and treatment efficacy of calcaneal osteomyelitis (CO). The present study summarized similarities and differences between diabetes-related CO (DRCO) and trauma-related CO (TRCO) based on synthesis analysis of literature-reported cases. Methods: We searched the PubMed, Embase, and Cochrane Library databases to find English studies reporting DRCO and TRCO published between January 2000 and December 2021. Effective data were extracted and synthesized for comparisons. Results: Altogether 108 studies with 278 DRCO and 403 TRCO patients were analyzed. The ratio of females among the DRCO patients was significantly higher than that of the TRCO patients (37.4% vs 24.3%, P < 0.001). The median age at diagnosis of the DRCO patients was statistically older than the TRCO patients (56 vs 44 years, P < 0.001). The median symptom duration of the DRCO patients was longer than the TRCO patients (4 vs 2 months, P = 0.136), with ulcer and sinus as the top symptoms for the DRCO and TRCO patients, respectively. The positive rate of pathogen culture for the DRCO patients was significantly higher than that for the TRCO patients (94.8% vs 69.5%, P < 0.001). The DRCO patients had higher risks of infection relapse (32.3% vs 16.3%, P < 0.001) and amputation (24.8% vs 1.4%, P < 0.001), and a higher all-cause mortality (4.9% vs 1.3%, P = 0.03) than the TRCO patients. Conclusion: DRCO and TRCO shared similar and different clinical features and diagnostic issues. However, compared with TRCO, the clinical efficacy and prognosis of DRCO were worse.

RESUMO

Background: Previous studies have indicated that nitric oxide synthase 2 (NOS2) genetic variations are involved in delayed fracture healing and fracture non-union. Whether these genetic variants associate with the development of osteomyelitis (OM) remains unclear. Here, we analyzed the potential relationships between NOS2 genetic variations and the risk of developing post-traumatic OM (PTOM) in a Chinese Han population. Methods: Altogether 704 participants, including 336 PTOM patients and 368 healthy controls, were genotyped of rs2297514 and rs2248814 of the NOS2 gene using the SNaPshot genotyping method. Results: Outcomes showed that the frequency of allele C of rs2297514 in the patient group was significantly lower than that in the control group (48.7% vs. 54.5%, P = 0.029, OR = 0.792, 95% CI 0.642 - 0.976). In addition, significant associations were found between rs2297514 and susceptibility to PTOM by the recessive model (P = 0.007, OR = 0.633, 95% CI 0.453 - 0.884), and the homozygous model (P = 0.039, OR = 0.648, 95% CI 0.429 - 0.979). Moreover, patients with the CC genotype of rs2297514 had lower inflammatory biomarkers levels than the TT genotype, especially for the C-reactive protein (CRP) level (median: 4.1 mg/L vs. 8.9 mg/L, P = 0.027). However, no significant relationship was noted between rs2248814 and the risk of developing PTOM. Conclusion: In this Chinese cohort, rs2297514 is correlated with a decreased risk of PTOM development, with genotype CC as a protective factor.

RESUMO

Genetic variations in the solute carrier family 11 member 1 (SLC11A1) gene have been implicated in developing inflammatory disorders. However, it is still unclear whether such polymorphisms contribute to the pathogenesis of post-traumatic osteomyelitis (PTOM). Therefore, this study investigated the roles of genetic variations of the SLC11A1 gene (rs17235409 and rs3731865) in PTOM development in a Chinese Han cohort. The SNaPshot method was used for genotyping 704 participants (336 patients and 368 controls) for rs17235409 and rs3731865. Outcomes revealed that rs17235409 increased the risk of PTOM occurrence by dominant (p = .037, odds ratio [OR] = 1.44) and heterozygous models (p = .035, OR = 1.45), implying AG genotype as a risk factor for PTOM development. In addition, patients with AG genotype had relatively higher levels of inflammatory biomarkers than those with AA and GG genotypes, especially for the white blood cell count and C-reactive protein. Despite no statistically significant differences achieved, rs3731865 may reduce the PTOM susceptibility, suggested by the results of dominant (p = .051, OR = 0.67) and heterozygous (p = .068, OR = 0.69) models. In short, rs17235409 confers an elevated chance of developing PTOM, with AG genotype as a risk factor. Whether rs3731865 involves in the pathogenesis of PTOM requires further investigations.

RESUMO

Diabetes mellitus has become a global health problem, and the number of patients with diabetic foot ulcers (DFU) is rapidly increasing. Currently, DFU still poses great challenges to physicians, as the treatment is complex, with high risks of infection, recurrence, limb amputation, and even death. Therefore, a comprehensive understanding of DFU pathogenesis is of great importance. In this review, we summarized recent findings regarding the DFU development from the perspective of single-nucleotide variations (SNVs). Studies have shown that SNVs located in the genes encoding C-reactive protein, interleukin-6, tumor necrosis factor-alpha, stromal cell-derived factor-1, vascular endothelial growth factor, nuclear factor erythroid-2-related factor 2, sirtuin 1, intercellular adhesion molecule 1, monocyte chemoattractant protein-1, endothelial nitric oxide synthase, heat shock protein 70, hypoxia inducible factor 1 alpha, lysyl oxidase, intelectin 1, mitogen-activated protein kinase 14, toll-like receptors, osteoprotegerin, vitamin D receptor, and fibrinogen may be associated with the development of DFU. However, considering the limitations of the present investigations, future multi-center studies with larger sample sizes, as well as in-depth mechanistic research are warranted.

RESUMO

BACKGROUND: In recent years, alkaline phosphatase (ALP) has been considered as one of the independent risk factors of acute ischemic stroke (AIS) and leads to worse clinical outcomes in patients with renal failure. In this study, we aim to investigate whether serum ALP level is associated with poor early-term prognosis in relationship of AIS patients with preserved renal function. METHODS: A prospectively collected database of AIS patients hospitalized in the Xi'an district of China from January to December, 2015 was analyzed. The demographics, serum ALP levels and stroke outcomes of all patients at 3 months were reviewed. Patients were routinely followed-up for 3 months. Serum ALP level was analyzed as a continuous variable and quintiles (Q1-Q5). Multivariate logistic regression model and a two-piecewise linear regression model were used to investigate the relationship and to determine the threshold effect regarding serum ALP levels and poor 3-month prognosis of AIS patients with preserved renal function. RESULTS: Overall, 1922 AIS patients were enrolled with 62.3% of them being men. The risk of having a poor 3-month prognosis was significantly increased in Q1, Q2, Q3 and Q5, when compared to that in Q4 being as the reference. The highest risk was noted in Q5 (odds ratio 2.21, 95% confidence interval: 1.32-3.73, P = 0.003) after being adjusted for confounders. Further analysis revealed a J-shaped curvilinear relationship between ALP levels and a poor 3-month prognosis of strokes (optimal threshold ALP level = 90 U/L). The relationship between both parameters was not significantly affected by age, sex, drinking, hypertension and leukocyte count (stratified by 10 × 109/L) (P for interaction > 0.05). CONCLUSIONS: Serum ALP was noted as an independent risk factor for a poor 3-month prognosis of AIS patients with preserved renal function. ALP levels higher than 90 U/L could cause an increased risk of a poor 3-month prognosis.

RESUMO

BACKGROUND: The relationship between baseline fasting blood glucose (FBG) levels and 1-year stroke recurrence in non-diabetic patients with acute cerebral infarction (ACI) is unclear. We aimed to clarify this relationship in non-diabetic patients with ACI. METHODS: Baseline FBG levels and related information of the patients were collected at admission and the events of stroke recurrence were followed up 1, 3, 6, and 12 months after the patients were discharged. Baseline FBG levels were analyzed as continuous variables and quartiles (Q1-Q4). Multivariate Cox regression models and a two-piecewise linear regression model were used to investigate the relationship and determine the threshold effect between baseline FBG levels and 1-year stroke recurrence in non-diabetic patients with ACI. RESULTS: Overall, 1,634 non-diabetic patients with ACI were enrolled. After adjusting for potential confounding factors, the hazard is 2.24-fold higher in Q4 than those in Q2, being considered the reference in non-diabetic patients with ACI [hazard ratio (HR) = 2.24, 95%CI: 1.08-4.65, P = 0.031]. Plotting hazard ratios over baseline FBG levels suggested a J-shaped relationship for 1-year stroke recurrence. Further analysis revealed that the nadir value of baseline FBG levels is 4.6 mmol/L. The relationship was more significant in patients with atrial fibrillation than in those without (P for interaction = 0.009). CONCLUSION: Lower and higher baseline FBG levels may lead to an increased risk of 1-year stroke recurrence in non-diabetic patients with ACI as shown by a J-shaped curve with a nadir value of 4.6 mmol/L.
