The assessment of the fibrinogen-to-platelet ratio for predicting mortality of COVID-19 in non-diabetic subjects.

Little is known about the biomarkers of mortality in SARS-CoV-2-infected patients without a previous diagnosis of diabetes. Thus, this study aimed to assess the fibrinogen-to-platelet ratio (FPR) and compare its predictive value with the main biomarkers for COVID-19 mortality, such as neutrophil-to-lymphocyte ratio (NLR), platelet-to-lymphocyte ratio (PLR), leukocyte glucose index (LGI), and lactate dehydrogenase (LDH)/lymphocyte ratio. This retrospective cohort study in a population of Mexico included 70 non-diabetic patients with COVID-19 from 1 May 2020 to 30 September 2020.

Objectives: To investigate the effect of serum advanced glycation endproducts (AGEs) on stenosis after first autologous arteriovenous fistula (AVF) in patients with end-stage renal disease (ESRD).

Methods: Patients with ESRD undergoing standard native arteriovenous fistula (AVF) for the first time in the Department of Nephrology, Affiliated Hospital of Guilin Medical University from February to June 2022 were prospectively enrolled. The preoperative general data, clinical examination results and ultrasound data of the operated limbs were collected.

Background: There is emerging evidence suggesting that vitamin D and fibrinogen play contrasting roles in ACS pathophysiology and their combined impact, expressed as the vitamin D/fibrinogen ratio, can be a potential biomarker for ACS severity. This study aimed to investigate the relationship between vitamin D, fibrinogen, and their ratio with ACS types, and assess their potential as risk stratification biomarkers.

Methods: This multicenter observational study was conducted in tertiary care hospitals in Afghanistan, Egypt, and Pakistan, including 300 ACS patients.

Introduction: This study aims to investigate the effect of the serum Total Cholesterol (TC) to High-Density Lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL) ratio (T/H ratio) on Hemorrhagic Transformation (HT) after Intravenous Thrombolysis (IVT) in patients with Acute Cerebral Infarction (ACI).

Methods: Patients with ACI who received alteplase were enrolled. Subgroups were classified based on the occurrence of hemorrhagic transformation (HT) after intravenous thrombolysis (IVT), whether tirofiban was coadministered, and their 90-day prognosis.

Purpose: To compare the relationship between the severity of placenta abruptio and creatinine-fibrinogen ratio (CFR).

Patients And Methods: Patients with mild and severe placental abruption were separated. Patients with ≥1 maternal complications (eg, DIC, hypovolemic shock, blood transfusion, hysterectomy, acute kidney injury, death) were classified as severe placental abruption, while those without were classified as mild.
