BACKGROUND:Chronic kidney disease (CKD) represents one of the most significant risk factors for adverse cardiovascular events and mortality. Data on real-world clinical practice of Chinese patients with CKD in the cardiology department is limited. OBJECTIVES:This study aims to investigate the proportion of underdiagnosis, guideline-directed therapy and awareness of CKD among Chinese patients. METHODS:It was a multicentre observational study conducted in 25 tertiary hospitals across China. Patients with two consecutive measurements (separated by 90-730 days) of either: (1) estimated glomerular filtration rate 20-60 mL/min/1.73 m², or (2) urinary albumin-to-creatinine ratio (UACR) ≥30 mg/g, with documented cardiology hospitalisation from 2022 to 2024 were eligible. Participants completed a lifestyle and awareness questionnaire after inclusion. The proportion of underdiagnosis, guideline-directed therapy and awareness of CKD was calculated. RESULTS:Among 2099 participants (median age 74.0 years; 64.6% male), 76.7% were underdiagnosed with CKD (lacked a CKD diagnostic code at discharge). Only 16.7% of participants underwent UACR testing and all individuals with isolated albuminuria (UACR >30 mg/g) remained underdiagnosed. Underdiagnosis was more common in patients aged 60-75, those with early-stage CKD, hospital stays <6 days or without comorbidities. The proportion of guideline-directed treatment was suboptimal: sodium-glucose cotransporter-2 inhibitors (36.5%), renin-angiotensin system inhibitors (56.5%) and only 32.2% of patients received guideline-directed treatment. CKD awareness lagged behind hypertension and diabetes, with <25% achieving guideline-recommended blood pressure and glycaemic targets. CONCLUSIONS:Alarmingly high proportion of underdiagnosed CKD, suboptimal guideline-directed treatment, and poor disease awareness of CKD in cardiology practice require urgent action. Closing these gaps is needed to reduce preventable cardiovascular morbidity and mortality.
OBJECTIVE:To investigate the effect of No. 2 Kangxianling decoction (,No. 2 KXLD) on renal tubular injury in renal ischemia/reperfusion injury (RIRI) rats and explore the mechanisms. METHODS:Male Sprague-Dawley rats were divided into sham group, RIRI group, No. 2 KXLD group, and FG-4592 group. Rats were pretreated with No. 2 KXLD (30 g·kg-1·d-1, i.g.) or FG-4592 (10 mg·kg-1·d-1, i.p.) for 7 d and then subjected to renal I/R. Serum creatinine (Scr) and blood urine nitrogen (BUN) were tested after I/R. Periodic acid-Schiff staining and tubular injury biomarkers were measured. Hypoxia-inducible factor (HIF), inflammatory response, and B-cell lymphoma 2/Bcl-2-associated X protein/caspase-9/3 (Bcl-2/Bax/caspase-9/3) signaling were determined. We used human kidney 2 (HK-2) cells in a hypoxia/reoxygenation (H/R) model to verify the study. RESULTS:No. 2 KXLD significantly decreased the levels of Scr by 22.4% and BUN by 19.7% at 48 h after I/R and improved the renal pathological changes in RIRI rats. No. 2 KXLD attenuated the expression of kidney injury molecule-1, neutrophil-gelatinase-associated lipocalin, and tissue inhibitor of metalloproteinase-2 in RIRI rats and H/R-induced HK-2 cells (P < 0.05). Both in vivo and in vitro studies demonstrated that No. 2 KXLD increased hypoxia-inducible factor, erythropoietin, and heme oxygenase 1 levels, suppressed tumor necrosis factor-α and interleukin-6 expressions, and boosted Bcl-2/Bax/caspase-9/3 pathway. CONCLUSIONS:No. 2 KXLD might have therapeutic potential on RIRI by inhibiting HIF-mediated inflammation and apoptosis, which provides a theoretical basis for the treatment of patients with renal tubulointerstitial injury.
ETHNOPHARMACOLOGICAL RELEVANCE:Wenyang Xiaozheng Decoction (WYXZ), a traditional Chinese medicine formula based on the principles of "warming Yang and resolving blood stasis," has been clinically shown to improve renal function in patients with chronic kidney disease (CKD). However, the precise mechanisms underlying its therapeutic effects remain to be elucidated. AIM OF THE STUDY:To investigate whether WYXZ alleviates renal fibrosis by modulating macrophage polarization via JAK2/STAT3 signaling. MATERIALS AND METHODS:Renal fibrosis was induced in C57BL/6J mice by 5/6 nephrectomy, followed by treatment with WYXZ (4.94 or 9.88 g/kg) or valsartan for 8 weeks. Kidney function (serum creatinine/blood urea nitrogen), histopathology (HE/Masson staining), and macrophage polarization (CD86+/CD206+ flow cytometry) were assessed. In vitro, RAW264.7 macrophages were polarized to M1/M2 phenotypes and treated with WYXZ-medicated serum (2.5-7.5 %) ± JAK2 agonist Butyzamide or STAT3 shRNA. Inflammatory responses (IL-6/IL-10 secretion by ELISA), polarization status (flow cytometry), and JAK2/STAT3 pathway activation (phosphorylated-JAK2/STAT3 by Western blot) were analyzed. Fibrosis markers (α-smooth muscle actin, α-SMA/collagen I, Col-I) were evaluated in RAW264.7/HK-2 co-cultures. RESULTS:WYXZ significantly attenuated renal fibrosis and improved kidney function in 5/6 nephrectomized mice, concurrently suppressing M1 macrophage polarization while enhancing M2 polarization. In vitro, WYXZ-medicated serum reduced inflammatory cytokine secretion and inhibited JAK2/STAT3 pathway activation in LPS-stimulated macrophages. These effects were reversed by JAK2 agonism with Butyzamide and abolished through STAT3 knockdown. Critically, in macrophage-renal tubular cell co-cultures, WYXZ diminished fibrotic marker expression via suppression of macrophage JAK2/STAT3 signaling. CONCLUSIONS:WYXZ attenuates renal fibrosis by reprogramming macrophage polarization through JAK2/STAT3 inhibition, validating its traditional use for CKD.
Objective:To observe the effect of Yiqi Huoxue Recipe(YQHX) combined with enalapril on vascular endothelial function in elderly patients with essential hypertension.Methods:A total of 120 elderly patients with grade Ⅰ essential hypertension who were admitted to Shanghai Seventh People′s Hospital from October 2017 to December 2020 were selected and randomly assigned into a Chinese medicine group(YQHX),an integrated Chinese and western group(YQHX+enalapril),and a western medicine group(enalapril)(n=40) according to the random number table method.All the patients received diet, exercise, and basic therapy(blood pressure-lowering, lipid-lowering, and antiplatelet therapy).Each course of the treatment was 12 weeks.The levels of endothelin-1(ET-1),angiotensin Ⅱ(AngⅡ),interleukin-6(IL-6),C-reactive protein(CRP),tissue-type plasminogen activator(t-PA),plasminogen activator inhibitor-1(PAI-1),and flow-mediated dilation(FMD) were compared among the three groups.Results:The therapeutic effects on blood pressure of the integrated Chinese and western medicine group, the Chinese medicine group, and the western medicine group were 95%,92.5%,and 90%,respectively, which showed no statistical significance between each other(P>0.05).The effective rates for TCM syndromes in the three groups were 87.5%,75%,and 62.5%,respectively, and the integrated group outperformed the western medicine group(Z=6.667,P=0.010).The integrated group outperformed the Chinese medicine group in the down-regulation of ET-1,IL-6,CRP,and PAI-1 and the improvement of FMD(P<0.05),and it was superior to the western medicine group in the down-regulation of AngⅡ and CRP(P<0.05).Conclusion:YQHX combined with enalapril can improve the vascular endothelial function in elderly hypertensive patients by down-regulating the expression of ET-1,AngⅡ,IL-6,CRP,and PAI-1,up-regulating the expression of t-PA,and increasing FMD.Therefore, this therapy is worth popularizing in elderly hypertensive patients.

Background Diabetes and impaired glucose regulation are very common in patients with coronary artery disease (CAD). In this study, we aim to investigate the prevalence of abnormal glucose regulation in men and women in Chinese CAD patients. Methods In this retrospective study, 4100 patients (male, n = 2873; female, n = 1227)with CAD were enrolled. The mean age of these patients was 63 years. The demographic data, medical history, echocardiography findings and blood investigations were collected and analyzed. Results In this population, 953 (24%) patients had definite diagnosis of type 2 diabetes mellitus, including 636 males (23%) and 317 females (27%). There was a higher prevalence of diabetes in females than men ( p < 0.05). For the remaining patients, 48% (n = 959) undergone an oral glucose tolerance test (OGTT), which revealed that 83 male patients (12%) and 41 female patients (16%) suffered from the type 2 diabetes ( p > 0.05). 283 men (40%) and 105 women (41%) had impaired glucose regulation (IGR) ( p > 0.05). Only 338 men (25%) and 109 women (19%) showed the normal glucose regulation, implying a higher prevalence of abnormal glucose regulation in females ( p < 0.01). The odd ratio (OR) showed that women were more prone to have diabetes mellitus or IGT than men and the OR was 1.44 and 1.43 respectively. Conclusion Abnormal glucose regulation is highly prevalent in CAD patients. The women are more prone to have diabetes mellitus or IGT than men.

Abstract Background: To investigate the relationship between body mass index (BMI) and proteinuria in stage 2-4 chronic kidney disease (CKD) patients. Methods: This study conducted a multicenter, cross-sectional study of 804 stage 2-4 CKD patients. Multivariate regression analysis, One-way ANOVA and subsequent multiple comparisons analysis were used to explore the relationship between BMI and proteinuria in pre-dialysis CKD patients. Results: Among stage 2-4 CKD patients, those with excessive proteinuria accounted for 85.32% of the total. BMI was an independent risk factor for the presence of proteinuria and positively correlated with the volume of proteinuria. Subgroup studies suggested that in stage 2-3a CKD patients, BMI was closely related to the presence and volume of proteinuria. However, in stage 3b-4 CKD patients, there was non-association between BMI and proteinuria. Furthermore, in stage 2-3a but not stage 3b-4 CKD patients, those with obesity (BMI≥ 28 kg/m2) had higher levels of proteinuria, compared with those with normal weight (BMI< 24 kg/m2) and overweight (24 kg/m2≤ BMI < 28 kg/m2). Conclusion: BMI is associated with the presence and volume of proteinuria in patients with early stage (stage 2-3a) CKD but not late stage (stage 3b-4) CKD. This result suggests that only in early stage CKD patients, weight control is beneficial for reducing proteinuria.Trial registration: ChiCTR-INR-17014069, Registered December 21, 2017.
