Abstract Objective: The relationship between triglyceride-glucose index (TyG index) and the prevalence of type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) has been confirmed by former studies. However, it remains uncertain whether TyG index has a predictive value in T1DM patients with diabetic ketoacidosis (DKA).Methods: The study retrospectively enrolled 143 patients ((boys/girls = 60/83) with T1DM in the Endocrine inpatient wards of Tianjin Children’s Hospital from June 2017 to May 2019.TyG index was calculated as follows: ln[fasting triglycerides (mg/dL)×fasting plasma glucose (mg/dL)/2]. These patients stratifed by the optimal cut-off point of TyG index were divided into the lower TyG index group (n=73) and higher TyG index group (n=70).Results: TyG index and related lipid parameters were significantly higher in patients with DKA compared with those without. Compared with patients in lower TyG index group, those with higher TyG index seemed to be younger. Multiple linear regression analysis showed that increase of TC (95%CI: 0.018~0.568, p=0.037) level and decrease of T3(95%CI:-2.314~-0.668,p=0.001) level were associated with the risk of higher TyG index. A linear equation was obtained between TC, T3 and TyG index (TyG index=10.226+0.299*TC-1.384*T3, R2=0.481). Conclusions: Increased TyG index is a significant predictor of DKA in children with T1DM. Higher TC and lower T3 levels were associated with higher TyG index. Further studies need to be conducted to determine whether interventions for TyG index have a positive impact on improving clinical prognosis.

Introduction: Insulin resistance has been recognized as the cause of cardiovascular disease, but little is known about the influence of insulin resistance to neointimal characteristics after stent implantation. Hypothesis: The high triglyceride-glucose index (TyG index) has been reported to indirectly represent a high insulin resistance. It was hypothesized that in-stent neointimal characteristics in the high TyG index patients may be unstable more than the low TyG index patients. Methods: In 100 patients, we investigated the relationship between the neointimal characteristics and the TyG index using coronary angioscopy (CAS) and optical coherence tomography (OCT) during follow-up angiography after stent implantation. We divided into 2 groups according to the median value of TyG index (8.8). Results: The high TyG index group (n=48) had the higher yellow grade and the higher prevalence of yellow grade 3 by CAS than the low TyG index group (n=52). The prevalence of heterogeneous and layered patterns were more often observed by OCT in the high TyG index group than in the low TyG index group (Figure). Conclusions: The high TyG index strongly associated with neointimal vulnerability evaluating by CAS and OCT. The TyG index can be a useful predictor for the neointimal vulnerability after stent implantation.

Purpose. Damage to corneal nerve fibers has been demonstrated in people with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) that further progresses with increasing severity of diabetic peripheral neuropathy. However, the role of C-peptide in corneal nerve damage has not been reported in T2DM. The present study investigated the relationship of fasting C-peptide levels with corneal neuropathy evaluated by corneal confocal microscopy (CCM) in patients with T2DM. Methods. 160 T2DM patients (72 females) aged 34-78 with duration ranging from 0 to 40 years underwent CCM to measure corneal nerve fiber length (CNFL), corneal nerve fiber density (CNFD), and corneal nerve branch density (CNBD). Pearson correlation analysis and multiple linear regression analysis were used to explore the association of fasting C-peptide levels with corneal nerve parameters. Partial correlation analysis (adjusted for age and gender) was also conducted to analyze the correlation of metabolic indexes with these three corneal nerve parameters. The relationship between fasting C-peptide levels and duration of diabetes was also explored by Pearson correlation analysis. Results. With an increase in fasting C-peptide levels, the values of CNFL, CNFD, and CNBD also showed a corresponding trend for an increase. Partial correlation analysis revealed that fasting C-peptide levels were positively associated with CNFL ( r = 0.245 , P = 0.002 ), CNFD ( r = 0.180 , P = 0.024 ), and CNBD ( r = 0.214 , P = 0.008 ) after adjusting for age and gender. Using multiple linear regression analysis, fasting C-peptide levels were also closely associated with CNFL ( P = 0.047 ) and CNBD ( P = 0.038 ) after multiple adjustments. However, this association disappeared after further adjusting for duration of diabetes. Further analysis indicated that fasting C-peptide levels declined with duration of diabetes ( r = − 0.267 , P = 0.001 ). Conclusions. C-peptide was closely associated with corneal neuropathy and disease duration in T2DM. C-peptide levels might be both an indicator of beta-cell function and a marker of disease severity (such as diabetic corneal neuropathy) and duration.

Abstract Background. There was a paucity of valid information on how to discriminate between different patterns of convex coronal imbalance (CCI>3cm) in dystrophic scoliosis secondary to Type I neurofibromatosis (DS-NF1), while aggravated postoperative CCI occurred regularly with the causes being insufficiently investigated. We aimed to develop a new classification of CCI in DS-NF1, and to optimize the coronal rebalancing strategies.Methods. NF1-related scoliosis database was reviewed and different types of CCI were identified, and the outcomes of coronal rebalance were analyzed. Results. Two main CCI patterns were defined: thoracic CCI (Type 1) and thoracolumbar/lumbar CCI (Type 2), and were further subtyped by the compensatory behavior of the upper hemi-curve (straight or curved morphology). The incidence of immediate post-op CCI was 0.0% and 63.6% for Type1 and Type 2 groups, respectively. Mismatch of both translation and inclination correction between the upper and lower hemi-curve was significant in the post-op coronal imbalanced group (△Upper Arc Translation/△Lower Arc Translation: 109.6±60.0% vs. 31.8±34.4%, p=0.008; △Upper Arc Inclination/△Lower Arc Inclination: 89.8±36.6% vs. 33.5±37.3%, p=0.012). Multiple linear regression analysis revealed that △UAT/△LAT significantly correlated with the correction of coronal balance distance (β=-21.567; p=0.018). A surgical rebalancing algorithm was proposed to treat each subtype.Conclusion. Thoracolumbar/lumbar CCI in dystrophic scoliosis was prone to suffer high risk of persistent post-op CCI. Satisfying coronal rebalance should rely on maximal translational correction of lower hemi-curve, while the upper hemi-curve played the role of fine-tuning for coronal realignment rather than radical Cobb correction, straight morphology in particular.

AimWe aimed to examine the relationship between the Triglyceride–glucose (TyG) index and the incidence of type 2 diabetes in people with different phenotypes of obesity.MethodsFrom May 1, 1994 to December 31, 2016, 15,464 participants were enrolled in the medical examination program at the Murakami Memorial Hospital to determine the relationship between the TyG index and the incidence of type 2 diabetes in people with different phenotypes of obesity after 5.38 years of follow-up.ResultsBesides triglycerides, HbA1c%, and FPG, the incidence of type 2 diabetes was found to be significantly associated with the TyG index (p <0.001), age (p <0.001), BMI (p = 0.033), current smoker (p <0.001), and fatty liver (p <0.001). In participants with visceral fat obesity and/or ectopic fat obesity and normal BMI, the TyG index was significantly associated with the incidence of type 2 diabetes after adjusting for confounding factors. In patients with BMI ≥25 mg/m2, although there was a trend of the relationship between the TyG index and the incidence of type 2 diabetes, the relationship was no longer positive.ConclusionIn participants with obesity involving visceral fat obesity and/or fatty liver and normal BMI which is not a measure of body fat distribution, there was a significant association between the TyG index and incidence of T2DM.

Organizational citizenship behaviour represents the behaviour of the employees that goes beyond their duties. This type of behaviour from the perspective of employer is very desirable since it produces many positive consequences regarding individual and the overall organizational performances. However, readiness of the employees to exert this type of behaviour is influenced by many factors. One of the most important is fulfilment of employees’ psychological contract. Since that there are two basic forms of contracts, relational and transactional, the aim of this paper is to investigate the relationship between these types of psychological contract and organizational citizenship behaviour. For the purpose of testing proposed hypothesis, t-test, Pearson correlation and multiple linear regression analysis were applied. The results showed that there is a positive relation and positive impact of relational psychological contract on the organizational citizenship behaviour, which was not the case when it was about the transactional contract.

Lifting Task

Psychophysical approaches to quantifying perceived effort have been used to evaluate the physical demand of many industrial work activities. An experiment was conducted to examine the relationship between ratings of whole-body perceived exertion and differentiated, regional ratings of exertion. The Borg, CR-10 scale was used by 16 subjects performing a simulated repetitive lifting task. Ratings of perceived exertion were obtained for the arms, legs, torso, and central (cardiorespiratory) effort sensations as well as a rating of overall, whole-body exertion. A multiple linear regression analysis was used to predict the whole-body rating of exertion from the differentiated ratings in lifting tasks using both a squat and stoop posture. In the stoop posture condition the coefficient of determination between whole-body perceived exertion and the model including arm, torso, and central ratings was R2=0.81. In the squat posture condition, the final regression model predicting whole-body exertion contained only the rating from the legs (R2 = 0.62). Differentiated ratings explained the majority of the variance in whole-body perceived exertion for squat and stoop lifting tasks.

Aims. This study aimed to investigate whether the change of plasma myeloperoxidase (MPO) level would be associated with the incidence of coronary artery disease (CAD) among diabetic patients.Methods. 339 patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus (DM) underwent coronary angiography. Of them, 204 cases had CAD and were assigned to CAD group and 135 cases without CAD were assigned to non-CAD group.Results. Compared to non-CAD group, CAD group had higher level of plasma MPO (p<0.01). Multiple linear regression analysis showed that plasma MPO level was correlated with Gensini score. Multiple logistic analysis showed that the odds ratios for CAD across increasing tertiles of MPO level were 1.191 (0.971–1.547) and 1.488 (1.115–2.228) (p=0.048,p=0.009versus 1st tertile of MPO level, resp.) by adjusting for age, sex, and other conventional risk factors for CAD. The subjects were stratified into nine groups according to tertiles of MPO and HbA1c. The odds ratio for CAD was significantly higher in group with highest levels of MPO and HbA1c (OR = 4.08,p<0.01).Conclusion. Plasma MPO level was positively correlated with the degree of coronary artery stenosis in type 2 diabetic patients, and increasing blood glucose might amplify the association between MPO and CAD.

This study attempts to analyze to what extent governance and sustainable development (SD) empirically appear compatible in the thirtyfive OECD countries through the fuzzy-set ideal type analysis, and identify which ideal types appear coupled or decoupled, and then reveal which countries belong to the coupled types or to the decoupled types. In short, twenty-two countries (including Sweden (fuzzy score, 0.953), Denmark (0.920), Finland (0.914), Norway (0.911) in Type 1 (G*S, ‘strong G-S coupled countries’); and Turkey (0.906), Greece (0.833), Mexico (0.828) in Type 4 (g*s, ‘lite g-s coupled countries’) are in line with the accepted conventions regarding the compatible relationship between governance and SD. On the other hand, the rest of thirteen countries (including USA (fuzzy score, 0.815), Luxembourg (0.721), Australia (0.660) in Type 2 (G*s, ‘G-s decoupled countries’); and Slovenia (0.728), France (0.644), Czech Rep. (0.625) in Type 3 (g*S, ‘g-S decoupled countries’) may indicate that the relationship of governance and SD is in fact experiencing tensions in the national contexts. These findings are characterized by the substance (of SD) and procedure (of governance) divide. Considering the results, this study focuses on the idea of reflexivity or reflexive capacity.

The purpose of this study was to determine the factors that influence shares price and return per share of 63 manufacturing companies period 2012-2016. The research method is multiple linear regression analysis, which done by the classical assumption test. The results of the research in the first model show that there is a positive influence between book value per share, net income, CSR social, and CSR report on shares price. While in the second model using the enter method shows delta net income and delta CSR total had a positive effect on return per shares, and delta CSR environment has a negative effect on return per share, while those using stepwise method delta CSR social and delta CSR net income had a positive impact on return per share. The contribution of this study is to provide information to stakeholders that CSR environment does not have an important role in shares prices, prioritizing the interests of shareholders, which means that the CSR environmental measurement instruments focus on disclosure, and ignore fundamental aspects, namely environmental liabilities. The implication is that the regulator, investor, and profession needs to more pay attention to CSR environmental.
