Objective: Therefore, we evaluated the relationship between the subclinical hypothyroidism and red cell distribution width (RDW) levels in a healthy population.
Subjects And Methods: The medical records of 23,343 consecutive health subjects were reviewed. Subjects were classified into four thyroid stimulating hormone (TSH) groups to determine the correlation between TSH and other variables in detail (0.3 to < 2.5 mU/L, 2.5 to < 5 mU/L, 5 to < 7.5 mU/L, and ≥ 7.5 mU/L).
Results: In the multivariate linear regression analysis, RDW was associated with TSH levels, and e-GFR was inversely associated with TSH levels, respectively (standardized beta coefficient = 0.102, -0.019; p < 0.001, p < 0.001). After adjusting for age and sex, in the four groups, TSH levels were significantly correlated with RDW, estimated glomerular filtration rate (e-GFR), and free thyroxine (fT4) levels in all groups. Furthermore in the 4 th group, RDW levels were more strongly associated with TSH levels than in the other groups (p = 0.006).
Conclusions: RDW levels are correlated with euthyroid and subclinical thyroid status. Notably, RDW is more correlated with subclinical hypothyroidism than the euthyroid status. This study presents the relationship between the RDW levels and thyroid function using TSH level in a large healthy population.

Objective: This study aims to investigate the relation of inflammatory markers to the long-term prognosis of patients with severe non-ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction (NSTEMI) in the intensive care unit (ICU), and to further develop a predictive model for their long-term outcomes.
Methods: This study utilized data on eligible NSTEMI patients from the Medical Information Mart for Intensive Care IV (MIMIC-IV) database. Patients were grouped based on mortality outcomes.

Background: Pulmonary Hypertension (PH) is a significant contributor to cardiac mortality in Dilated Cardiomyopathy (DCM) patients. Inflammatory processes and oxidative stress play pivotal roles in the advancement of Pulmonary Hypertension (PH). The Monocyte-to-High-- Density-Lipoprotein Cholesterol Ratio (MHR), a newly identified biomarker indicative of inflammatory and oxidative stress, has not been extensively researched in the context of pulmonary hypertension, especially within the scope of dilated cardiomyopathy.

Objective: To explore the prognostic value of preoperative hematological indicators for prostate cancer (PCa) patients with laparoscopic radical prostatectomy (LRP) and construct a nomogram prediction model based on hematological indicators and clinicopathological characteristics.
Method: PCa patients who underwent LRP in Beijing Chaoyang Hospital from January 2017 to December 2022 were retrospectively analyzed. Clinicopathological data and blood indicators, including the neutrophil-to-lymphocyte ratio (NLR), platelet-to-lymphocyte ratio (PLR), lymphocyte-to-monocyte ratio (LMR), red blood cell distribution width (RDW), prognosis nutritional index were compared between non-recurrence and recurrence groups.

, a soilborne pathogen responsible for root rot in olive trees, poses a significant threat to olive production. Managing this pathogen remains challenging due to its aggressive root colonization and the limited efficacy of conventional control methods. Given the concerns associated with chemical treatments, this study evaluated the resistance of eight olive varieties to -induced root rot under controlled greenhouse conditions by assessing structural and biochemical defense mechanisms.
