Article Abstract
Objective: The neutrophil/high-density lipoprotein cholesterol ratio (NHR) has been identified as a combined indicator of inflammatory cells and lipid metabolism. The objective of this study was to investigate the relationship between the NHR and metabolic dysfunction-associated steatotic liver disease (MASLD) in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM).
Methods: This cross-sectional study selected patients with T2DM who were admitted to the Department of Endocrinology at the First Hospital of Zhangjiakou City. Liver ultrasound was performed on all patients to determine the presence or absence of MASLD, and NHR values were calculated. The patients were grouped according to the median NHR, and a difference analysis was performed to compare the differences in clinical information between groups.Logistic regression was used to assess independent influences of MASLD, and subgroup analyses were performed. The final stage of this project involved construction of a novel predictive model for MASLD, derived from the screened influential factors, alongside an evaluation of its predictive value using the receiver operating characteristic.
Results: A total of 621 patients with T2DM were included in this study according to the inclusion and exclusion criteria. Logistic regression analyses showed a significant negative correlation between NHR and MASLD, and this correlation was particularly significant in men and in patients not using GLP-1A. In addition, restricted cubic spline curve (RCS) plots showed a nonlinear correlation between NHR and MASLD. The area under the curve (AUC) of the novel prediction model constructed on the basis of NHR reached 0.78 (95% CI 0.75-0.82), which can be used to predict the onset of MASLD, and is effective in clinical applications.
Conclusion: NHR is significantly correlated with MASLD, and NHR has the potential to be an early detection and intervention indicator for screening T2DM patients for MASLD.

The supported catalytically active liquid metal solution (SCALMS) concept is based on catalytically active metals dissolved in a low-melting-point liquid metal matrix. These solid alloy particles, deposited over a high area support, transform into a liquid alloy under reaction conditions. In this work, GaPt SCALMS materials of varying composition are investigated and focus on the change in the alloy composition during preheating, the actual high temperature propane dehydrogenation at 823 K, and after cool-down.

Objective: This study aimed to identify distinct REM sleep characteristics that differentiate type 1 narcolepsy (NT1) from type 2 narcolepsy (NT2) using polysomnography (PSG), while acknowledging the need for future validation against other hypersomnia disorders.
Methods: A retrospective review included 31 patients with NT1, 21 patients with NT2, and 24 healthy participants. Each participant underwent overnight PSG and a subsequent multiple sleep latency test (MSLT) to assess REM sleep parameters including average REM density, neck myoclonus index, and leg movement index.

Background: The nose plays a central role in facial aesthetics and perceptions of beauty. While personality influences the quality of life and self-perception, its effect on post-rhinoplasty satisfaction remains underexplored. This study investigates the relationship between personality traits and satisfaction with rhinoplasty outcomes.

Computationally inferring mechanistic insights from typical biological data is a challenging pursuit. Even the highest-quality experimental data come with challenges. There are always sources of noise, a limit to how often we can measure the system, and we can rarely measure all the relevant states that participate in the underlying complexity.
