OBJECTIVE: Chromosome conformation-based karyotype analysis (C-MoKa) technology was used to test a couple who had experienced multiple adverse pregnancies in order to provide them with genetic counseling and reproductive guidance. METHODS: A couple presented at the Reproductive Medicine Center of the First Hospital of Lanzhou University in 2023 was selected as the study subject. Through C-MoKa testing, copy number variation sequencing (CNV-seq), and preimplantation genetic testing for aneuploidy (PGT-A), it was found that the couple's repeatedly miscarried fetuses and abnormal embryos exhibited highly similar chromosomal structural abnormalities. Using C-MoKa, the potential genetic abnormalities in both partners were traced, and reproductive guidance was provided based on the result. This study was approved by the Medical Ethics Committee of the Hospital (Ethics No.: LDYYSZLLKH2025-09). RESULTS: CNV-seq analysis of the couple's miscarriage fetal chorionic villi showed del(18)(q21.2q23)(28.90 Mb) and dup(13)(q31.2q34)(26.26 Mb). Chromosomal karyotyping analysis of both partners showed no abnormality. From 2024 to 2025, the couple underwent three rounds of PGT-A assisted reproduction. The first embryo test showed del(13)(q31.2q34)(26.77 Mb) and dup(18)(q21.2q23)(29.08 Mb). The second embryo test showed dup(13)(q31.2q34)(26.26 Mb) and del(18)(q21.2q23)(28.90 Mb). And the third embryo test results showed complex chromosomal abnormalities. In 2025, after genetic counseling, the couple had opted C-MoKa test, which has detected no abnormality in the wife, but a balanced 46,XY,t(13;18)(q31.2;q21.2) translocation in the husband. CONCLUSION As a high-throughput sequencing method based on the three-dimensional conformation of chromatin, C-MoKa has the advantages of high resolution and high accuracy, and can accurately detect balanced translocations with similar banding patterns. It has therefore offered a powerful new tool for chromosomal analysis.

Objective: To analyze the epidemiological characteristics of category C intestinal infectious diseases among children and adolescents in Shenzhen from 2012 to 2024 and the association with meteorological factors, so as to provide a scientific basis for the targeted prevention and control of infectious diseases for children and adolescents. Methods: Using data from the "Infectious Disease Reporting Information Management System" of the "China Disease Prevention and Control Information System" covering the period from January 1, 2012 to December 31, 2024, the study analyzed clinical and confirmed cases of hand, foot, and mouth disease, other infectious diarrhea, and acute hemorrhagic conjunctivitis among individuals aged 6-19 years old to describe demographic and temporal characteristics. It used Joinpoint regression to calculate the average annual percent change (AAPC) and annual percent change (APC) to analyze incidence trends, and Spearman s correlation was combined to generalize linear models so as to assess the association between category C intestinal infectious diseases and meteorological factors. Results: From 2012 to 2024, a cumulative total of 61 019 cases of hand, foot, and mouth disease among children and adolescents, 58 498 cases of other infectious diarrhea, and 6 377 cases of acute hemorrhagic conjunctivitis were reported. The AAPC in the incidence rates of these three diseases was 19.19%, 31.03% and 31.48 %, respectively(all P <0.05). Notably, the incidence of hand, foot, and mouth disease increased significantly after 2022 (APC= 133.66 %, P <0.01). The temporal distribution showed that hand,foot,and mouth disease was most prevalent in May,June and July (seasonal index of 2.39,3.64,1.97), other infectious diarrhea was most prevalent in February,March and December (seasonal index of 1.22,1.25,1.47), and acute hemorrhagic conjunctivitis peaked in September and October (seasonal index of 4.22,2.16). Monthly average temperature could increase the risk of hand,foot,and mouth disease( β = 0.18 ,95% CI =0.11-0.25); as monthly average wind speed increased, the incidence of other infectious diarrhea ( β =-0.86, 95% CI = -1.50 to -0.22) and acute hemorrhagic conjunctivitis ( β =-1.32, 95% CI =-2.60 to -0.05) both decreased (all P < 0.05 ). Conclusions Among children and adolescents in Shenzhen, category C intestinal infectious diseases remain prevalent throughout the year；the number of reported hand, foot, and mouth disease cases has shown an upward trend in recent years.Temperature and wind speed significantly affect the number of reported cases of three types with category C intestinal infectious diseases.

BACKGROUND:Previous studies have demonstrated that the cannabinoid type Ⅰ receptor can enhance the proliferation and neural differentiation of neural stem cells and mesenchymal stem cells.Moreover,cannabinoid type Ⅰ also governs the proliferation and mineralization capacity of human apical papilla stem cells.However,there are relatively few investigations concerning the impact of cannabinoid type Ⅰ overexpression on the neural differentiation of human apical papilla stem cells.OBJECTIVE:To investigate the effect of cannabinoid type Ⅰ on neural differentiation of human apical papilla stem cells in vitro.METHODS:Healthy third molars with immature root tips that need to be removed for orthodontic treatment were collected,and human apical papilla stem cells were isolated and cultured by tissue block method combined with enzyme digestion method.Cannabinoid type Ⅰ gene was introduced into human apical papilla stem cells by lentivirus-mediated transfection technique.A blank control group,a negative control group,and cannabinoid type Ⅰ overexpression group were set up.The transfection effect of overexpression of cannabinoid type Ⅰ lentivirus on human apical papilla stem cells was verified by Western Blot.The control group,negative control group,cannabinoid type Ⅰ overexpression group and cannabinoid type Ⅰ overexpression+AM251(cannabinoid type Ⅰ receptor antagonist)group were set up.Cell proliferation was detected by CCK-8 assay at 1,5,and 10 days after neural induction.On day 10 of neural induction,the expression levels of TH,NeuroD-1,and NCAM1 genes were detected by qRT-PCR,and the protein expression levels of Nestin and TUBB3 were detected by immunofluorescence.RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:(1)Compared with the blank control group and the negative control group,the expression of cannabinoid receptor Ⅰ protein in the cannabinoid receptor Ⅰ overexpression group was significantly increased,and the difference was significant(P＜0.05).(2)Compared with the blank control group and the negative control group,the proliferation ability of human apical papilla stem cells in the cannabinoid type Ⅰ overexpression group was the strongest at 5 and 10 days after neural induction(P＜0.05).(3)Compared with the blank control group and the negative control group,the mRNA expression of NeuroD-1,NCAM1,and TH in the stem cells of the human apical papilla in the cannabinoid type Ⅰ overexpression group was significantly increased,and the fluorescence intensity of Nestin and TUBB3 was significantly enhanced(P＜0.05).(4)Compared with the cannabinoid type Ⅰ overexpression group,the proliferation ability,mRNA expression level of NeuroD-1,NCAM1,and TH,as well as the fluorescence intensity of Nestin and TUBB3,were significantly decreased in the cannabinoid type Ⅰ overexpression+AM251 group(P＜0.05).These findings conclude that overexpression of cannabinoid type Ⅰ promoted the proliferation and neural differentiation of human apical dentin papilla stem cells.

BACKGROUND:The mesenchymal stem cell secretome contains bioactive substances,cytokines,and growth factors.Three-dimensional cell culture can regulate the secretion of these components,potentially enhancing the ability to promote injury repair.OBJECTIVE:To investigate the repair effect of three-dimensional cultured human umbilical cord mesenchymal stem cell secretome on skin injuries in mice.METHODS:Human umbilical cord mesenchymal stem cells were cultured in conventional two-dimensional culture dishes and 96-well U-bottom cell culture plates,from which their secretory components were subsequently collected.The expression of skin damage repair related secretory factors in umbilical cord mesenchymal stem cells was analyzed using RT-qPCR.The protein expression level of skin damage repair related factors in umbilical cord mesenchymal stem cell secretome was detected using enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay.The potential of human umbilical cord mesenchymal stem cell secretome to repair vascular injuries was evaluated using an immortalized human umbilical vein endothelial cell migration model.A mouse skin injury model was established,and the human umbilical cord mesenchymal stem cell secretome was injected subcutaneously.Repair effects on skin injury were assessed through wound healing rates and histopathological analysis.RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:(1)After three days of cultivation,human umbilical cord mesenchymal stem cells cultured in two dimensions exhibited a fibroblast-like,swirling growth pattern,whereas three-dimensional culture led to the formation of uniform microspheres.(2)Compared with two-dimensional culture,three-dimensional culture significantly increased the mRNA expression of transforming growth factor β and basic fibroblast growth factor in human umbilical cord mesenchymal stem cells.(3)Compared with two-dimensional culture,three-dimensional cultured human umbilical cord mesenchymal stem cell secretome significantly enhanced the protein expression of vascular endothelial growth factor,interleukin-10,and granulocyte-macrophage colony-stimulating factor in the human umbilical cord mesenchymal stem cell secretome.(4)Compared with two-dimensional culture,three-dimensional cultured human umbilical cord mesenchymal stem cell secretome significantly promoted the migration of immortalized human umbilical cord mesenchymal stem cells.(5)Compared with the untreated control group and the two-dimensional cultured human umbilical cord mesenchymal stem cell secretome,the three-dimensional cultured human umbilical cord mesenchymal stem cell secretome can significantly accelerate the skin wound healing rate and wound skin structure remodeling in mice.These results indicate that three-dimensional culture can enhance the expression of paracrine factors of human umbilical cord mesenchymal stem cells,and their secretome can significantly promote the repair of mouse skin damage.

BACKGROUND:Studies have found that probiotics have a certain preventive and therapeutic effect on peri-implantitis,and there are further explorations in the mechanism against peri-implantitis.OBJECTIVE:To review the mechanism and clinical application of probiotics in the treatment of peri-implantitis.METHODS:Relevant literature was searched on PubMed,Web of Science,CNKI,and WanFang Data,using the search terms of"probiotics,peri-implantitis,flora imbalance,immunoregulation,inflammatory reaction,mechanism of action"in Chinese and English.A total of 90 articles were finally included.RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:Probiotics have the following mechanisms.They can activate the anti-inflammatory mechanism by inhibiting the secretion of inflammatory factors and promoting the production of anti-inflammatory factors.They can destroy the cell wall of pathogenic bacteria by secreting microbial complexes and bacteriocins,reduce the pH value of biofilms,improve the composition of microorganisms in microecology,induce the change of bacterial community structure,and restore the balance of microbial population around implants.They have immunomodulatory effects and can enhance the resistance of the host oral mucosa to pathogenic bacteria in the surrounding area of the implant.In addition,probiotics can produce antibacterial compounds,offset the adhesion of pathogenic microorganisms,and regulate immune function.Through the above mechanisms,probiotics have certain potential in the adjuvant treatment of peri-implantitis,which can improve the clinical parameters of peri-implantitis and affect the microbiota.Probiotic therapy provides a new treatment option,but more long-term prospective studies are needed to further verify its effect.

[摘 要] 目的：探讨lncRNA DLEU2通过EZH2/H3K27me3途径调控IKKα介导甲状腺癌（TC）放射性碘抵抗的作用机制。方法：利用TCGA数据库分析TC中DLEU2的表达及其与EZH2的相关性。构建放射性碘抵抗的TPC-1细胞（RR-TPC-1细胞）模型及裸鼠移植瘤模型，通过敲低或过表达DLEU2（si-DLEU2/OE-DLEU2）、抑制EZH2（UNC1999）、过表达IKKα（OE-IKKα）进行干预，采用qPCR、WB、RIP、ChIP、CCK-8、流式细胞术、TUNEL染色及体内成瘤实验检测基因与蛋白表达、表观修饰、细胞增殖、凋亡及肿瘤生长。结果：TCGA分析显示，DLEU2在TC组织中显著上调（P < 0.001），与患者不良预后相关（P = 0.008 4），且与EZH2表达呈正相关（r = 0.390, P < 0.001）；RIP证实EZH2与DLEU2存在相互作用/结合（P < 0.05）。体外实验表明，敲低DLEU2可显著下调RR-TPC-1细胞中EZH2、IKKα表达及H3K27me3修饰水平，抑制NF-κB通路活化（P < 0.05或P < 0.01），抑制细胞增殖、促进凋亡（均P < 0.05）。联合敲低DLEU2与抑制EZH2进一步增强上述效应，而过表达IKKα则可部分逆转上述效应（P < 0.05或P < 0.01）。体内实验进一步证实，敲低DLEU2联合抑制EZH2可显著抑制移植瘤生长，增加肿瘤细胞凋亡（均P < 0.01）；IKKα过表达则部分逆转上述抗肿瘤效应（P < 0.05或P < 0.01）。结论：lncRNA DLEU2通过招募EZH2催化H3K27me3修饰，间接激活IKKα/NF-κB信号并形成正反馈环路，介导TPC-1细胞131I抵抗。

ObjectiveTo analyze the current research status, hotspots and future trends of the application of digital health technology (DHT) in the rehabilitation of upper limb motor function after stroke. MethodsRelevant literature on the application of DHT in upper limb motor rehabilitation for stroke patients published between January, 2015 and December, 2025 was retrieved from Web of Science Core Collection, CNKI and Wanfang database. CiteSpace 6.4.R1 was used for visualized bibliometric analysis. ResultsA total of 1 295 publications were included, comprising 454 in Chinese and 841 in English. The annual number of publications generally showed an upward trend. China ranked first in publication output in English literature. The institutions with the highest numbers of publications were Huashan Hospital Affiliated to Fudan University and Swiss Federal Institute of Technology in Zurich. Both Chinese and English keywords formed ten clustering groups. Chinese clusters mainly involved occupational therapy, neural mechanisms and home-based rehabilitation, whereas English clusters focused on virtual reality, brain-computer interfaces and machine learning. High-frequency keywords included virtual reality, brain-computer interface, machine learning and deep learning. Chinese keywords with a strong burst included rehabilitation training, while deep learning showed a strong burst in English keywords. Stroke was the most frequently cited journal. Highly cited journals covered multiple disciplines, including rehabilitation medicine, neuroscience and computer science, reflecting the interdisciplinary characteristics of this field. ConclusionResearches on DHT for upper limb motor function rehabilitation in stroke are increasing annually, focusing on core interaction technologies, neural mechanism and artificial intelligence.

Objective To quantitatively assess the exposure-response association between exposure to heatwave and sudden death, estimate the attributable excess deaths, and identify potential vulnerable subgroups. Methods A time-stratified case-crossover study was conducted among residents who died from sudden death in Jiangsu Province, China between 2015 and 2021. Heatwave events in Jiangsu Province, defined using varying relative temperature thresholds and durations, were identified using temperature data from the China Meteorological Administration Land Data Assimilation System (CLDAS V2.0). Individual heatwave exposure was assessed based on each subject's residential address. The exposure-response association between heatwave and sudden death was evaluated using conditional logistic regression model combined with a Distributed Lag Nonlinear Model(DLNM). Heatwave-attributable excess deaths were estimated. Stratified analyses by sex and age were performed to assess potential effect modifications. Results Under all definitions, exposure to heatwave was significantly associated with an increased risk of sudden death, and the risk increased with the intensity of heatwave. Using the P95_3d definition (temperature exceeding the 95th percentile for ≥3 consecutive days), heatwave was significantlyassociated with a 56% increased risk of sudden death (95% CI: 31%, 86%). The population-attributable fraction of sudden death due to heatwave exposure was 1.45% (95% CI: 0.97%, 1.90%). Stratified analyses indicated no statistically significant differences in the association between heatwave exposure and sudden death across age or sex subgroups. Conclusion Heatwave exposure was associated with an increased risk of sudden death. Reducing heatwave exposure during summer may help lower the occurrence of sudden death.

Objective: To prepare the erythrocyte-liposome drug delivery system to enhance the therapeutic effect of drugs on tumors and inhibit tumor metastasis. Methods: This study prepared and characterized paclitaxel (PTX)-plerixafor (AMD3100) liposomes (Lips), developed the erythrocyte-liposome drug delivery system, and evaluated its targeting efficiency and therapeutic efficacy through a series of in vitro cellular and in vivo animal experiments. Results: The particle size of PTX-AMD-Lips was (186.4±0.83) nm. Drug encapsulation efficiency of PTX-AMD-Lips was (75.50±5.27)% for PTX and (88.31±2.45)% for AMD. The Binding efficiency between RBC and liposomes in the drug delivery system was (69.93±2.55)%. Vitro cellular experiments revealed that PTX-AMD-Lips significantly inhibited tumor cell migration. In vivo animal experiments, the erythrocyte-liposome drug delivery system significantly increased drug accumulation in the lungs. At the experimental endpoint, the quantitative fluorescence signal of tumor size measured (4.04±0.44)×10 for the PTX-Lips group, and (5.14±3.40)×10 for the RBC-PTX-AMD-Lips group. Conclusion: The erythrocyte-liposome drug delivery system could enhance the lung-specific targeting capability of liposomes, kill tumor cells and suppress further metastasis effectively.

To interpret the evidence-to-decision （EtD） framework and to illustrate its application in traditional Chinese medicine （TCM） guideline development using the example of the Pharmacovigilance Guideline of Chinese Patent Medicine， thereby providing methodological references for TCM guideline standardization. Based on the core three stages of the EtD framework （formulating the question， making an assessment of the evidence， and drawing conclusions）， critical decision points and evaluation evidence within the evidence-translation process were systematically addressed， aligning with the purpose， scope， and key questions of the guideline. Qualitative research methods， such as the nominal group technique， were employed to formulate recommendations. The analysis was conducted based on the EtD framework. During question formulation， the specific characteristics and practical needs of pharmacovigilance for Chinese patent medicines were clarified， focusing on the core objective of safety assurance throughout the product lifecycle. In the evidence assessment， multi-source evidence was integrated， including policy documents， literature research， and expert consensus， completing the evidence evaluation. Finally， in recommendation-forming， dispersed research evidence and expert experience were synthesized into consensus， culminating in the guideline's completion through solicitation of opinions and peer review. The EtD framework provides a structured tool for evidence-to-decision translation in TCM guideline development， effectively enhancing the transparency and scientific rigor of the process. Therefore， it is recommended that TCM guideline development adopt the EtD framework to improve the evidence-to-decision process with TCM characteristics.
