https://www.selleckchem.com/products/Metformin-hydrochloride(Glucophage).html COVID-19 confinement in Spain has led to the adoption of healthier dietary habits/behaviours in the studied population, as reflected by a higher adherence to the MedDiet. This improvement, if sustained in the long-term, could have a positive impact on the prevention of chronic diseases and COVID-19-related complications.Degradation of endothelial glycocalyx (EG) is associated with inflammation and endothelial dysfunction, which may contribute to the development of acute kidney injury (AKI). We investigated the association between a marker of EG degradation and AKI after valvular heart surgery. Serum syndecan-1 concentrations were measured at induction of anesthesia and discontinuation of cardiopulmonary bypass in 250 patients. Severe AKI was defined as Kidney Disease Improving Global Outcomes Criteria Stage 2 or 3. Severe AKI occurred in 13 patients (5%). Receiver operating characteristic analysis of preoperative syndecan-1 to predict severe AKI showed area under curve of 0.714 (95% confidence interval (CI), 0.575-0.853; p = 0.009). The optimal cut-off value was 90 ng/mL, with a sensitivity of 61.5% and specificity of 78.5%. In multivariable analysis, both preoperative syndecan-1 ≥ 90 ng/mL and Cleveland Clinic Foundation score independently predicted severe AKI. Severe tricuspid regurgitation was more frequent (42.4% vs. 17.8%, p less then 0.001), and baseline right ventricular systolic pressure (41 (33-51) mmHg vs. 33 (27-43) mmHg, p = 0.001) and TNF-α (1.85 (1.37-2.43) pg/mL vs. 1.45 (1.14-1.92) pg/mL, p less then 0.001) were higher in patients with high preoperative syndecan-1. Patients with high preoperative syndecan-1 had longer hospital stay (16 (12-24) days vs. 13 (11-17) days, p = 0.001). In conclusion, a high preoperative syndecan-1 concentration greater than 90 ng/mL was able to predict severe AKI after valvular heart surgery and was associated with prolonged hospitalization.The
