Thrombotic diseases refer to a group of conditions characterized by abnormal blood coagulation within blood vessels,leading to the formation of blood clots and a series of clinical symptoms.This includes diseases such as deep vein thrombosis in the lower extremities,stroke,atherosclerosis,and diabetes.Thrombosis is a complex,progressive process that can be broadly summarized as the exposure of vascular endothelial damage,activation of the intrinsic coagulation system,platelet adhesion and aggregation,fibrin network formation,blood cell stasis.Macrophages play an important role in this process.They are involved in local inflammatory responses,regulating both the formation and resolution of thrombi.Macrophage polarization is a hot research topic in recent years,which mainly refers to the morphological and functional changes of macrophages in response different environmental stimuli.Macrophage polarization can be classified into classical(M1)and alternative(M2)types,as well as several specialized polarization states.The transition of macrophage polarization states plays an important role in immune responses,pathogen infections,tumor immunity,and autoimmune processes.This review discusses the regulatory relationship of macrophage polarization in thrombotic diseases,providing new directions for the treatment of these conditions.

Objective To understand the refractive progression of myopic school-aged children in ethnic minority areas of Yunnan and explore related factors.Methods Based on an existing cohort,a first follow-up survey was conducted from October 2020 to June 2021 involving 1,774 students selected from three ethnic minority areas:Dali City(Bai ethnic group),Lijiang Ancient Town(Naxi ethnic group),and Menghai County in Xishuangbanna(Dai and Hani ethnic groups).Among them,816 myopic school-aged children at baseline were selected as research subjects to analyze changes in refractive error(△SE)and the degree of refractive progression(classified as rapid △SE and slow △SE)over one year.Binary logistic regression was used to analyze the influencing factors of refractive progression.Results After one year of follow-up,the change in refractive error for myopic school-aged children was-0.63(-1.00,-0.25)D,with 518 children experiencing rapid △SE and 298 children experiencing slow △SE.Comparisons by educational stage indicated that Dai ethnic group children in primary school were more likely to experience rapid △SE than those in junior high school(P<0.05).Logistic regression results showed that school-age children of Naxi ethnic group(OR=1.879,95%CI:1.132～2.999),and those who used their eyes in the classroom during breaks(OR=1.541,95%CI:1.088～2.181)were at higher risk of rapid refractive progression(P<0.05).Children of school age who engage in outdoor activities for at least 3 hours during the day(OR=0.539,95%CI:0.340～0.853)and those who frequently consume animal liver(OR=0.596,95%CI:0.399～0.892)have a lower risk of rapid myopic progression(P<0.05).Conclusion Myopic school-aged children in ethnic minority areas of Yunnan exhibit rapid refractive progression,with significant ethnic differen-ces.The refractive progression in these children is closely related to lifestyle habits,highlighting the need for targeted myopia prevention and control measures and research for children and adolescents in ethnic minority areas of Yunnan.

Objective To explore and analyze adverse drug events(ADE)signals of azithromycin,identify common adverse events and suspected adverse reactions that occur easily in the real clinical application of azithromycin.Methods The adverse drug event reports related to azithromycin recorded in the US FDA Adverse Event Reporting System database from October 1,2003,to October 1,2023,were mined using the OpenVigil 2.1 drug surveillance platform.Signal detection and analysis were carried out using the reporting odds ratio(ROR)and Bayesian confidence propagation neural network method(BCPNN).Results A total of 5498 ADE signals were identified,with a total of 112485 reports.Eventually,31,041 azithromycin-associated adverse event reports were extracted,involving 898 positive signals,27 system organ classes,mainly concentrated in respiratory system diseases,infections,gastrointestinal system diseases,and others.Additionally,some adverse reactions possibly caused by azithromycin were discovered,such as asthma,wheezing,and potential reactions like incomplete abortion.Conclusion When using azithromycin,besides paying attention to the adverse reactions listed in the drug instructions,we should also pay attention to some adverse reactions that have not been timely recorded or updated,in order to prevent the medication safety risks caused by outdated instructions,provide reasonable medication advice,and ensure the medication safety of patients.

Objective To utilize single-cell and peripheral blood transcriptomic data from 3D brain organoids,combined with machine learning,to analyze the role of mitochondrial autophagy genes in schizophrenia(SCZ).Methods By integrating two machine learning algorithms,we identified differentially expressed mitochondrial autophagy-related genes between schizophrenia patients and healthy controls using peripheral blood RNA sequencing data.The relationship between mitophagy gene,immune cells and inflammatory factors was further explored.Comprehensive single-cell analysis was used to explore the signaling pathways and specific transcription factors based on mitophagy genes.Results Using machine learning,seven key mitophagy genes expressed in schizophrenia patients were identified.Based on Mitoscore analysis,at the single-cell level,neurons with high mitochondrial autophagy activity(Mitohigh_Neuron)formed new interactions with endothelial cells via the SPP1 signaling pathway.Conclusion This study identified two subtypes of mitophagy and seven key mitophagy genes in schizophrenia,providing new insights into the pathogenesis of the disease.

Objective To investigate the effects of galangin on the migration and invasion abilities of cervical cancer Hela cells and its potential mechanisms.Methods Hela cells were treated with different concentrations of galangin(0,5,10,20,40,60,80,100 μmol/L)for 48 hours,and CCK-8 assay was used to assess the impact of galangin on cell viability and to determine the half-maximal lethal concentration(IC50)of galangin.Hela cells were divided into a control group(0 μmol/L)and a galangin group(40 μmol/L treatment).Scratch wound healing assays and Transwell chamber assays were conducted to evaluate the migration and invasion abilities of the cells in each group.Western Blot was used to detect the protein expression of E-cadherin and N-cadherin.DIA quantitative proteomics technology was used to detect and screen the differentially expressed proteins between the two groups.Biological function enrichment analysis of the differential genes was performed using the KEGG Pathway and Gene Set Enrichment Analysis(GSEA)methods.Western Blot was used to verify the expression levels of Hippo/YAP signaling pathway-related proteins YAP and p-YAP.Results Compared to the control group,galangin(40 μmol/L)significantly inhibited the viability of Hela cells in a concentration-dependent manner(P<0.001).Compared with the control group,the scratch healing ability and invasion ability of cervical cancer Hela cells treated with galangin(40 μmol/L)were significantly reduced(P<0.001).The expression of E-cadherin protein was increased(P<0.05)and the expression of N-cadherin protein was decreased(P<0.001)in the galangin group(40 μmol/L)compared to the control group.KEGG and GSEA enrichment results indicated that the inhibition of malignant progression in cervical cancer by galangin was significantly associated with the Hippo/YAP signaling pathway.Western Blot confirmed that the expression level of the hallmark protein p-YAP in the Hippo signaling pathway was increased(P<0.01),while the expression level of YAP protein was decreased(P<0.05).Conclusion Galangin inhibits the proliferation,migration and invasion abilities of Hela cells in a dose-dependent manner.The underlying mechanism might be associated with the activation of the Hippo/YAP signaling pathway.

Objective To explore the clinical efficacy and safety of immediate laparoscopic radical prostatectomy immediately following the diagnosis of locally advanced prostate cancer.Methods A retrospective analysis was performed for 63 patients with locally advanced prostate cancer who met the inclusion criteria diagnosed in The 1st People's Hospital of Qujing City,Yunnan Province from January 2018 to January 2023.All patients were diagnosed via ultrasound-guided transperineal prostate biopsy.The experimental group consisted of 37 patients who underwent immediate laparoscopic radical prostatectomy after pathological diagnosis,followed by postoperative adjuvant hormone therapy.The control group included 26 patients who first received 3 months of neoadjuvant hormone therapy before undergoing radical surgery,followed by adjuvant hormone therapy postoperatively.The two groups were compared in terms of surgical duration,intraoperative blood loss,length of hospital stay,duration of catheterization,positive surgical margin rate,rectal injury,positive lymph node rate,incidence of urinary fistula and lymphatic leakage,changes in PSA level,postoperative urinary control,biochemical recurrence and distant metastasis.Results In the control group,serum PSA levels,prostate volume,and clinical staging significantly decreased after neoadjuvant hormon therapy.The positive surgical margin rate in the experimental group was significantly higher than that in the control group,with a statistically significant difference(P<0.05).There were no statistically significant differences between the two groups in terms of surgical duration,intraoperative blood loss,length of hospital stay,duration of catheterization,rectal injury,positive lymph node rate,incidence of urinary fistula and lymphatic leakage(P>0.05).Follow-up at 18 to 36 months revealed no statistically significant differences between the two groups in terms of serum PSA levels at one month post-surgery,complete urinary control rate at six months post-surgery,and biochemical recurrence and distant metastasis at one and two years post-surgery(P>0.05).Conclusion Immediate laparoscopic radical prostatectomy following the diagnosis of locally advanced prostate cancer is a clinically safe and feasible treatment option.Noadjuvant hormone therapy reduces tumor staging,lowers the positive surgical margin rate,significantly decreases prostate volume,and provides greater operational space without increasing surgical risks.

Objective To analysis the efficacy and safety of antiviral therapy in patients with chronic hepatitis B virus in indeterminate phase based on the new guidelines(2022 Edition of the Guidelines for the Prevention and Treatment of Chronic Hepatitis B).Methods A total of 170 patients with newly diagnosed HBV infection who visited the Third People's Hospital of Kunming from August 1,2020,to July 31,2024,were selected as study subjects.The clinical indicators of patients with normal ALT in the indeterminate phase were analyzed after 12 weeks,24 weeks,and 48 weeks of antiviral treatment,as well as those who did not receive antiviral treatment for 48 weeks.Results(1)Among the 170 patients with normal ALT during the indeterminate phase of HBV infection,the treatment group consisted of 125 patients(36 HBeAg positive and 89 HBeAg negative),while the untreated group had 45 patients.In the treatment group,the HBV-DNA load and HBsAg titer decreased significantly after 48 weeks compared to before treatment,with statistically significant differences(both P<0.05).In the untreated group,the HBV-DNA load showed an upward trend,and the HBsAg titer slightly decreased,with statistically significant differences(both P<0.05).(2)The CVR rate in the treatment group after 48 weeks was 66.67%(24/36)for HBeAg positive patients and 95.51%(85/89)for HBeAg negative patients,with a statistically significant difference(P<0.05).(3)The treatment group showed a significant decrease in GGT and AFP after 48 weeks compared to before treatment,while the untreated group saw an increase in ALT,GGT,and AFP,with statistically significant differences(all P<0.05).(4)The fibrosis indicators APRI,FIB-4,and LSM in the treatment group significantly decreased after 48 weeks compared to before treatment,with statistically significant differences(all P<0.05).(5)The safety indicators CREA,blood calcium,and blood phosphorus in the treatment group significantly decreased after 48 weeks compared to before treatment,with statistically significant differences(all P<0.05).Conclusion Expanding the antiviral treatment indications according to the new guidelines for patients with normal ALT in the indeterminate phase of HBV infection demonstrates good efficacy in controlling HBV-DNA,improving CVR rates,and enhancing fibrosis indicators,while also showing favorable renal safety.However,there may be a risk of osteoporosis due to calcium and phosphorus metabolism disorders,necessitating enhanced monitoring and prevention.

Objective To understand the current status of stigma among lung cancer patients in Yunnan and analyze its influencing factors.Methods A convenience sampling method was employed to select 248 lung cancer patients from a tertiary cancer hospital in Yunnan from July 2022 to July 2023.A demographic questionnaire and the Chinese version of the Lung Cancer Patient Stigma Scale were used to investigate their demographic characteristics and stigma levels.Results The total score of stigma in lung cancer patients was(96.92±14.87).Multiple linear regression analysis showed that education level,long-term residence,ethnicity and family relationship were the influencing factors of stigma score in lung cancer patients(P<0.05).Conclusion The stigma level among lung cancer patients is relatively high.Patients with higher education levels,those living in rural areas for a long time,ethnic minorities,and those with better family relationships exhibited higher stigma levels.Enhancing the accessibility of medical resources,establishing a comprehensive social support system,and paying attention to and respecting the cultural differences and beliefs of lung cancer patients can provide them with greater understanding,support,and encouragement,thereby reducing the stigma levels.

Objective To explore the influencing factors of self injury or suicide in adolescent patients with depression.Methods A total of 96 adolescents who were diagnosed with depressive disorder at Yunnan Psychiatirc Hospital and Kunming Psychiatirc Hospital from January 2023 to May 2024 were selected for the study.The case group consisted of 61 adolescents who had self-injury or suicidal behaviors within 30 days,while the control group consisted of 35 adolescents who had no self-injury or suicidal behaviors within at least 30 days.Assessments were performed using the Patient Health Questionnaire-9(PHQ-9),Millon Screening Inventory for Borderline Personality Disorder(MSI-BPD),House-Tree-Person Drawing Test(HTP),and the Columbia Suicide Severity Rating Scale(C-SSRS).Among these,72 subjects underwent skin pressure pain threshold testing using the Algometer HP-50,with 12 in the self-harm or suicide group within 2 days and 60 in the group beyond 2 days.Results(1)Analysis of gender and age between the two groups showed statistically significant differences(P<0.05),with a higher proportion of females and younger ages in the 30-day group;(2)The PHQ-9 score for the 30-day group was(19.59±5.99),with a score of(2.41±0.97)for item 9("Thoughts that it would be better to be dead or to hurt oneself in some way"),and an MSI-BPD score of(7.43±1.61).The scores for the group over 30 days were(10.89±7.99),(1.00±1.11)for item 9,and(5.40±3.13)for MSI-BPD.Independent samples t-test analysis showed significant differences(P<0.01);(3)In the 30-day group,five drawing characteristics from the 47 HTP characteristics(shift of center of gravity,hair not disheveled or no hair,no mountains,no sun,and no flowers or grass)were found to occur at a higher rate,with statistical significance(P<0.05);(4)In the binary logistic regression analysis of 96 patients with the 30-day suicide or self-injury behavior as the dependent variable,the absence of flowers and PHQ-9 question 9 score are the risk factors for adolescent depression patients to have self-injury or suicide behavior within 30 days(OR no flowers=7.934,OR score on PHQ-9 question 9=3.554).(5)Among the 72 subjects the skin pressure pain threshold for adolescents who exhibited self-injure or suicide behaviors within 2 days(8.83±4.27 N)was significantly higher than that for patients beyond 2 days(6.48±3.00 N),with statistical significance(t=-2.201,P<0.05).Additionally,the score for item 9 of the PHQ-9 was higher(2.50±0.67 vs 1.87±0.95),also showing statistical significance(t=-2.201,P<0.05).Conclusion The absence of flowers or grass in HTP painting,and stronger suicidal ideation or suicide attempt are risk factors for self-injury or suicidal behavior in adolescents with depression.Furthermore,those who self-injure or commit suicide within 2 days have a higher pain threshold compared to those beyond 2 days.

Objective To investigate the expression of GJB4 gene in pancreatic cancer tissue and its correlation with clinicopathology.Methods The expression levels of GJB4 mRNA in pancreatic cancer and adjacent cancer tissues were analyzed using bioinformatics to analyze the Cancer Genome Atlas(TCGA)and Genotype-Tissue Expression(GTEx)RNA sequencing datasets.A total of 120 pancreatic cancer samples and 40 adjacent cancer samples from the Pathology Department of The Second Affiliated Hospital of Kunming Medical University from January 2019 to December 2023 were collected and sorted.Immunohistochemistry staining method was used to detect the expression difference of GJB4 protein between the two groups.RT-qPCR method was used to detect the expression levels of GJB4 in four pancreatic cancer cell lines.Univariate and multivariate Cox regression and Kaplan-Meier curves were used to analyze the clinical pathological data of GJB4 and pancreatic cancer patients.DAVID functional annotation bioinformatics and GSEA enrichment analysis were used to explore the relevant pathways of GJB4 in pancreatic cancer.Results The expression level of GJB4 mRNA in pancreatic cancer was higher than that in adjacent tissues,and the high expression of GJB4 was significantly associated with poor prognosis of patients(P<0.05).Immunohistochemical analysis showed that GJB4 protein was brown-yellow granular in pancreatic cancer tissues,mainly expressed in cytoplasm and cell membrane,and GJB4 protein expression was up-regulated in pancreatic cancer(P<0.05).The RT-qPCR test results showed that out of 4 pancreatic cancer cell lines,3 of them had upregulated expression(P<0.05).COX regression analysis showed that GJB4 gene was an independent risk factor in the prognosis of pancreatic cancer patients.The results of GO enrichment analysis showed that GJB4 was related to the transmembrane transport,ion channel,signal release and membrane potential regulation of pancreatic cancer.GSEA analysis showed that GJB4 was enriched in the Wnt/β-catenin signaling pathway.Conclusion In pancreatic cancer,the high expression level of GJB4 is closely related to the clinicopathological features of the patients,which may predict the poor prognosis of the patients.GJB4 may be involved in regulating the Wnt/β-catenin signaling pathway of pancreatic cancer,and is expected to be one of the potential biomarkers of pancreatic cancer prognosis.
