| Abstract |
The primary objective of this study was to evaluate whether the polymorphism of poly (ADP-ribose) polymerase-1 (PARP-1) is involved as a potential risk factor in the development of acute renal injury in elderly Chinese patients with diabetes mellitus. In this pilot study, diabetic patients of either gender (aged ≥65 years) with a confirmed diagnosis of acute renal injury and individuals with no clinical symptoms of acute renal injury were enrolled at Nanxishan Hospital of Guangxi Zhuang Autonomous Region, China. Genetic polymorphism of PARP-1 was assessed using polymerase chain reaction-restriction fragment length polymorphism assay. Cytokine levels (interleukin [IL]-6, IL-1β and tumor necrosis factor-alpha) were measured in the serum samples by sandwich enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay technique. A total of 130 Chinese patients with acute renal injury and 130 Chinese individuals with no clinical symptoms of acute renal injury were included. We found that the patients with GG genotype and carriers of the G and C alleles of PARP-1 were at high risk of developing acute renal injury. Moreover, del/ins polymorphism of the NF-κB1 gene was also found to be associated with acute renal injury. In addition, the levels of IL-6, IL-1β and tumor necrosis factor-alpha were significantly increased in patients with acute renal injury (p<0.05). Our findings showed the involvement of PARP-1 polymorphisms in the development of acute renal injury in Chinese individuals. This study identified the involvement of two SNPs of PARP-1 (C410T and G1672A) in development of acute renal injury among Chinese diabetic patients. Also, increased expression of C and G alleles of PARP-1 can be considered as one of the potential risk factors for developing acute renal injury. Increased serum cytokine levels can be considered as one of the potential risk factors for developing acute renal injury. |

Attention Score in Context
This research output has an Altmetric Attention Score of 1. This is our high-level measure of the quality and quantity of online attention that it has received. This Attention Score, as well as the ranking and number of research outputs shown below, was calculated when the research output was last mentioned on 15 December 2017.
All research outputs
#22,764,772
of 25,382,440 outputs
Outputs from Clinical Interventions in Aging
#1,779
of 1,968 outputs
Outputs of similar age
#299,290
of 340,752 outputs
Outputs of similar age from Clinical Interventions in Aging
#59
of 62 outputs
Altmetric has tracked 25,382,440 research outputs across all sources so far. This one is in the 1st percentile – i.e., 1% of other outputs scored the same or lower than it.
So far Altmetric has tracked 1,968 research outputs from this source. They typically receive a lot more attention than average, with a mean Attention Score of 11.1. This one is in the 1st percentile – i.e., 1% of its peers scored the same or lower than it.
Older research outputs will score higher simply because they've had more time to accumulate mentions. To account for age we can compare this Altmetric Attention Score to the 340,752 tracked outputs that were published within six weeks on either side of this one in any source. This one is in the 1st percentile – i.e., 1% of its contemporaries scored the same or lower than it.
We're also able to compare this research output to 62 others from the same source and published within six weeks on either side of this one. This one is in the 1st percentile – i.e., 1% of its contemporaries scored the same or lower than it.
