Slow rewarming has no effects on the decrease in jugular venous oxygen hemoglobin saturation and long-term cognitive outcome in diabetic patients.

Abstract

UNLABELLED: The purpose of this study was to examine the effects of rewarming rate on internal jugular venous oxygen hemoglobin saturation (SjvO(2)) during the rewarming period, and long-term cognitive outcome in diabetic patients. We studied 30 diabetic patients scheduled for elective coronary artery bypass graft surgery. As a control, 30 age-matched nondiabetic patients were identified. The diabetic patients were randomly divided into two groups: the Slow Rewarming group (n = 15) (mean rewarming speed: 0.22 degrees +/- 0.07 degrees C/min, mean +/- SD) or the Standard Rewarming group (Standard group) (n = 15) (mean rewarming speed: 0.46 degrees +/- 0.09 degrees C/min, mean +/- SD). After the induction of anesthesia, a fiberoptic oximetry catheter was inserted into the right jugular bulb to monitor SjvO(2) continuously. Hemodynamic variables and arterial and jugular venous blood gases were measured at nine time points. All patients underwent a battery of neurologic and neuropsychologic tests on the day before the operation and at 4 mo after surgery. The SjvO(2) values in the Standard group were decreased during the rewarming period compared with at the induction of anesthesia (P < 0.05). There was a significant difference in the SjvO(2) value in the Control group between standard rewarming and slow rewarming during rewarming periods (Standard Control group: 51% +/- 8%, Slow Control groups: 58% +/- 5%) (P < 0.05). However, there was no difference in the SjvO(2) value in diabetic patients between standard rewarming and slow rewarming during the rewarming period. The rewarming rates (odds ratio: 0.8; 95% confidence interval: 0.5-1.3; P = 0.6) had no correlation with cognitive impairment at 4 mo after the surgery. Diabetes (odds ratio: 1.6; 95% confidence interval: 0.9-2.6; P = 0.04) was a factor in relation to cognitive impairment at 4 mo after the surgery. We concluded that a slow rewarming rate had no effects on the reduction in SjvO(2) value and long-term cognitive outcome in diabetic patients. IMPLICATIONS: We examined the effects of rewarming rate on internal jugular venous oxygen hemoglobin saturation in diabetic and nondiabetic patients during the rewarming period and long-term cognitive outcome. Slow rewarming could not prevent the frequency of the reduction in internal jugular venous oxygen hemoglobin saturation and adverse cognitive outcome in diabetic patients.

Prognostic Value of Blood-Based P-Tau217 Levels for Progression to Cognitive Impairment.

IMPORTANCE: Blood-based biomarkers for Alzheimer disease, particularly plasma phosphorylated tau 217 (p-tau217), accurately reflect early Alzheimer disease brain pathology in cognitively unimpaired individuals, but estimates of absolute risk of progression to cognitive impairment across multiple cohorts are needed. OBJECTIVE: To estimate absolute risk of progression to cognitive impairment and rates of cognitive decline based on plasma p-tau217 across cognitively unimpaired older adults. DESIGN, SETTING, AND PARTICIPANTS: Longitudinal cohort study using harmonized data from 2684 cognitively unimpaired older adults (defined within cohort) across 6 observational and clinical trial cohorts based in North America, Japan, and Australia. The earliest enrollment was in 2004, with most recent follow-up in 2025. EXPOSURE: Baseline plasma p-tau217. MAIN OUTCOMES AND MEASURES: The primary outcome was time to progression to cognitive impairment (mild cognitive impairment, dementia, or 2 consecutive global Clinical Dementia Rating scores &#x2265;0.5). The secondary outcome was longitudinal change on the latent Preclinical Alzheimer Cognitive Composite (PACC; higher values indicate better performance). RESULTS: Among the 2684 participants (median [IQR] age, 69.6 [66.2-74.2] years; 1697 [63%] female), there were 478 events of progression to cognitive impairment over a median follow-up of 5.4 years (maximum follow-up of 13.5 years). Each 1-SD increase in baseline p-tau217 level was associated with an increased risk of progression to cognitive impairment (hazard ratio, 1.38 [95% CI, 1.30-1.46]), and the association remained significant after adjustment, including &#x3b2;-amyloid positron emission tomography scan Centiloids (hazard ratio, 1.32 [95% CI, 1.24-1.41]). Participants with high (1.1-2.4 SD) and very high (>2.5 SD) baseline p-tau217 had 24% (95% CI, 20%-28%) and 38% (95% CI, 33%-43%) absolute risk of progression over 5 years, respectively, and risk was markedly higher over 10 years, although longer-term estimates were constrained by limited data. Elevated p-tau217 was also associated with faster cognitive decline based on change in latent PACC score. Among the overall sample, baseline latent PACC scores ranged from -0.8 to 2.7. The 5-year annualized decline for the very high p-tau217 group was -0.07 latent PACC units/y (95% CI, -0.10 to -0.05), relative to 0.03 units/y (95% CI, 0.02-0.04) in the low p-tau217 group. CONCLUSIONS AND RELEVANCE: In a pooled sample of multiple selected cohorts of cognitively unimpaired older adults, higher plasma p-tau217 levels were consistently associated with increased risk of clinical progression and accelerated cognitive decline. By providing time-specific absolute risk estimates, these findings support the potential of p-tau217 for prognostic model development, with direct implications for future trial design. Further validation in unselected populations is needed to inform individual prognosis and clinical decision-making in cognitively unimpaired individuals.

Lifestyle, anthropometric factors and clinically significant prostate cancer diagnosis in men with suspected prostate cancer.

OBJECTIVE: Lifestyle and anthropometric factors may influence prostate cancer (PCa) risk, yet evidence remains inconclusive. This study reports the associations between lifestyle and anthropometric factors and clinically significant PCa (csPCa; ISUP grade > 1) among men with clinical suspicion of PCa. MATERIALS AND METHODS: In this registered (NCT06116851), single-institution, prospective cohort trial, men referred for PCa diagnostics due to elevated prostate-specific antigen or abnormal digital rectal examination were included. Subjects underwent prostate diagnostics and completed detailed surveys of lifestyle, medical and family history. Physical activity was measured using a triaxial accelerometer. Anthropometric assessments included body mass index, waist circumference and magnetic resonance imaging-based body composition analyses. RESULTS: Among 298 included men, 143 (48%) were diagnosed with csPCa. In multivariate logistic regression, higher physical activity, measured by step count (odds ratio [OR]: 0.91, 95% confidence interval [CI]: 0.82-0.99) and active smoking compared to never-smokers (OR: 0.38, 95% CI: 0.14-0.96) were inversely associated with detection of csPCa. Higher prostate-specific antigen density was associated with increased risk (OR: 1.78, 95% CI: 1.39-2.35). Body composition was not associated with csPCa. Study strengths include comprehensive data collection. Primary limitation is partial reliance on self-reported data. CONCLUSIONS: Higher measured physical activity was inversely associated with detection of csPCa in men with suspicion of PCa. Active smoking also showed an inverse association. Both findings merit further investigation.

Oral and gut microbiota profiles in patients with locally advanced rectal cancer with varying responses to neoadjuvant chemoradiotherapy.

Recent research has focused on gut bacteria in colorectal cancer, but the influence of other microbiota, including oral and nonbacterial gut microbiota, on treatment efficacy remains insufficiently explored. This study aimed to investigate their relationship with the efficacy of neoadjuvant chemoradiotherapy (nCRT) in locally advanced rectal cancer (LARC). Saliva and fecal samples were collected from patients with LARC before treatment. Shotgun metagenomic sequencing was used to profile bacterial, archaeal, eukaryotic, and viral taxonomic groups and to examine oral and gut microbial functions. An artificial intelligence-based prediction model was developed by integrating oral and gut microbiome data with clinical information. Statistical analyses compared diversity and response-associated microbial features between responders and non-responders to nCRT. Response-associated differences were observed in bacterial and nonbacterial taxonomic profiles and in oral and gut microbial functional profiles. In the internal test subset, the integrated analysis yielded an observed AUC of 0.917. Given the small cohort and the exploratory comparison of candidate classifiers, this estimate requires confirmation in larger, independent cohorts. Baseline oral and gut microbiome profiles were associated with response to nCRT. Integrating microbiome and clinical features showed potential for response prediction, but the model remains exploratory and requires validation in larger, independent cohorts before clinical application. Retrospectively registered on 01/08/2026, NCT07346729.
