Sex differences in the relationship of serum creatinine to cystatin C ratio and depressive symptoms among middle-aged and older adults in China

Yueli Zhu et al.

Summary: This study explored the relationship between CCR and depressive symptoms among middle-aged and older adults. The findings suggest that lower CCR is significantly associated with increased depressive symptoms in males, but not in females.

Statins are associated with reduced likelihood of sarcopenia in a sample of heart failure outpatients: a cross-sectional study

Rui Valdiviesso et al.

Summary: Contrary to expectations, patients medicated with statins were found to be less likely to have sarcopenia. Age, body mass index, and the daily use of five or more medicines were positively associated with sarcopenia, while being male and physically active were inversely associated with sarcopenia.

Pathogenesis of sarcopenia in chronic obstructive pulmonary disease

Kai Ma et al.

Summary: COPD is a common pulmonary disease characterized by persistent respiratory symptoms and airflow obstruction. It is often associated with other organ diseases, including sarcopenia. Multiple factors, such as inflammation, oxidative stress, nutritional changes, aging, and medication use, can contribute to muscle dysfunction in COPD patients.

Serum creatinine/cystatin C ratio as a surrogate marker for sarcopenia in patients with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease

Kuniaki Hirai et al.

Summary: The serum Cr/CysC ratio is an effective indicator for evaluating sarcopenia in male patients with COPD, correlating with handgrip strength and muscle mass. It is a better predictor of sarcopenia compared to other biomarkers. Patients with Cr/CysC below 0.71 are at higher risk of severe acute COPD exacerbations, despite no significant difference in the frequency of acute exacerbations.

Serum creatinine to cystatin C ratio is associated with major adverse cardiovascular events in patients with obstructive coronary artery disease

Ya-Wen Lu et al.

Summary: In patients with obstructive CAD, a lower serum creatinine to cystatin C ratio (SI) was found to be significantly associated with a higher prevalence of major adverse cardiovascular events (MACE). SI may serve as a useful surrogate marker to predict future MACE in these patients.

Fang-Ying Lu et al.

Summary: The study investigated the clinical features and prognostic biomarkers in severe acute exacerbation of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) in frequent exacerbators, finding that they had higher neutrophil-to-lymphocyte ratios (NLR) and more worse outcomes compared to non-frequent exacerbators. NLR could be a promising predictive biomarker for the prognosis of severe acute exacerbation of COPD in frequent exacerbators.

Summary: The study found that the Sarcopenia index (SI) based on serum creatinine and cystatin C can predict the risk of pneumonia after joint replacement surgery among older patients with hip fracture. However, there was no significant association between SI and other postoperative complications in this patient population.

Procalcitonin kinetics to guide sequential invasive-noninvasive mechanical ventilation weaning in patients with acute exacerbation of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease and respiratory failure: procalcitonin's adjunct role

Shao-Hua Lin et al.

Summary: This study explores the clinical significance of using the change rate of procalcitonin (PCT) as the switch point for weaning patients with acute exacerbation of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (AECOPD) complicated by acute respiratory failure (ARF) from mechanical ventilation. The findings show that using a change rate of PCT level exceeding 50% as the switch point is more effective than the conventional pulmonary infection control window, leading to improved treatment outcomes and prognosis for the patients.
