Understanding the nexus between migration and food security: Evidence from rural farming households in Osun State, Nigeria by Lateef Olatunbosun Jimoh, Kamila Olaide Akintunde, Ahmed Oluwagbemiga Busari, Afusat Adunni Alabi, Khadijat Olaitan Olanrewaju, Ibrahim Adebowale Yakubu

“…For migrant households, the average MPCFE recorded was (N92, 345.56) surpassing the food security line (2/3 MPCFE), and resulting in the majority (80.0 %) relatively food-secure. Logistic regression modeling shows that migratory effect, labor loss, and households’ size (1 %) were negatively significant; while farming experience, farm size, and income level (5 %) were the positive significant factors influencing food security among the migrant households. …”

Related factor analysis of anemia in patients with type 2 diabetic kidney disease by Zhang Jing, Chen Guang-mei, Fan Wen-xing, Su Feng

“…Objective To explore the related factors of anemia in patients with type 2 diabetic kidney disease（DKD）.Methods In this retrospective study, 334 patients with a clinical diagnosis of type 2 DKD were recruited and divided into anemia and non-anemia groups.The relationships of anemia with clinical manifestations and laboratory findings were analyzed.Binary Logistic regression analysis was performed for evaluating the related factors in type 2 DKD patients of different genders.Results Significant inter-group differences existed in complement（C4）,serum creatinine（Scr）,cystatin C（CysC）,retinol binding protein（RBP）,ferritin（SF）,urinary albumin/creatinine（UACR）,diabetes duration, body mass index（BMI）,hemoglobin（Hb）,glycosylated hemoglobin（HbA1 c）,complement（C3）,albumin（Alb）,indirect bilirubin（IDBIL）,estimated ball filtration rate（eGFR）,cholesterol（TC）,iron（Fe）and calcium（Ca）for males（P<0.05）;for females, Scr, CysC,RBP,UACR,Hb, Alb, Fe, IDBIL,eGFR,C3 and Ca were significantly different between two groups（P<0.05）.Logistic regression analysis showed that BMI,eGFR and Alb were associated with anemia in males（P<0.05）;BMI,eGFR and Ca were correlated with anemia in females（P<0.05）.Conclusions Anemia in type 2 diabetic kidney disease patients is closely correlated with deterioration of renal function, disorder of iron metabolism, hypocalcemia, malnutrition and microinflammation.…”

Risk factors influencing curative effect of class Ⅳ lupus nephritis by ZHANG Yu-rong, QI Yuan-yuan, MA Xiao, MENG Rui-xia, YANG Yan, WANG Jing

“…Objective To investigate the clinical risk factors for unresponsive common approaches on the treatment of class IV lupus nephritis(LN).Methods The class IV LN patients were confirmed by renal biopsy,treated with glucocorticoid and common immunosuppressive agents and followed up for more than6 months.They were divided into two groups according to curative effect after treatment for 6months.The differences between the two groups were analyzed by means of demographic characteristics,clinical manifestations,laboratory tests,autoantibodies,pathologic indicators,treatment regimens and outcomes.The possible influencing risk factors on the classⅣ LN were analyzed by Kaplan-Meier,and the independent risk factors were analyzed by multivariate COX regression modeling.Results A total of 198 patients with complete data and regularly followed-up were enrolled.They were divided into two groups:50(25.25%)patients in non-response group and 148(74.75%)in response group.There was no significant difference between two groups in responsive rate under various common induction therapies.And then,the risk factors influencing the curative effects of class LN Ⅳ patients were further explored.Results showed that the nonresponse group had a higher rate of photosensitization,renal dysfunction,moderate proteinuria,the anti-RNP positive,renal glomerular sclerosis,CI,chronic interstitial lesions,interstitial cellular infiltration and NNV than in the response group(P<0.05).Kaplan-Meier results showed that a decreasing response happened in the group with a higher rate of renal dysfunction,chronic lesions and interstitial cellular infiltration(Log Rank P<0.05).Then multivariate COX regression model investigated that renal dysfunction was an independent risk factor for poor curative effect.Conclusions Under the treatment of common induction therapy,the classⅣ LN patients with baseline renal dysfunction have a terrible curative effect.In addition,it is possible that the baseline anti-RNP positivity,chronic interstitial lesions,interstitial cellular infiltration or NNV are the risk factors for unresponsive treatment.…”
