TL;DR: The prevalence of diabetes and glycemic control in the Chinese adult population in 2010 was investigated in a nationally representative sample of 98,658 Chinese adults aged ≥18 years in 2010 by weighting sampling factors derived from China population census.

TL;DR: This study indicates that CKD is an important global-health challenge, especially in low- and middle-income countries, and national and international efforts for prevention, detection, and treatment of CKD are needed to reduce its morbidities and mortalities worldwide.

TL;DR: There are few studies examining the effects of a diet low in carbohydrates on cardiovascular disease (CVD) risk factors in the long term, particularly in contrast to the current dietary recommendat level.

TL;DR: Increased MMP-9 was associated with poor prognosis within one-year after stroke only in patients with dyslipidemia, suggesting that the prognostic value of M MP-9 be modified by dys Lipidemia status of ischemic stroke patients.

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors review advances in human genomics research of blood pressure responses to dietary sodium and potassium by focusing on three main areas, including the phenotypic characterization of salt sensitivity and resistance, clinical challenges in diagnosing such phenotypes, and the genomic mechanisms that may help to explain salt and potassium sensitivity and resist.
