Objective:The Fuxing Program was established in Zhuhai as an action plan to micro-eliminate hepatitis C in response to the World Health Organization's goal of eliminating hepatitis C by 2030. Therefore, the effectiveness of this program in terms of hepatitis C screening, treatment, follow-up, and other aspects is evaluated here.Methods:The "Fuxing Project" was established in May 2021 under the supervision of the Zhuhai Medical Quality Control Center for Infectious Diseases. A bridge was formed among the governmental entities, hospitals at all levels, and the community to train hepatitis C prevention and control strategies. Hepatitis C screening, publicity, and educational awareness were conducted in-and out-of-hospital. The responsibility for the diagnosis, treatment, and follow-up of a patient with hepatitis C was assigned to the staff. The screening and treatment rates of hepatitis C in hospitals before and after the initiation of the project were compared and analyzed using the χ2 test or Fisher's exact test. The hepatitis C virus (HCV) infection and treatment status were investigated and analyzed among the general population, high-risk populations such as human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) infection, drug addicts, and the population residing in supervised sites within Zhuhai communities, rural areas, schools, or factories. Results:Anti-HCV positivity rate (0.82% vs. 0.43%, P<0.001), HCV RNA detection rate (98.1% vs. 59.5%, P<0.001), HCV RNA detection positivity rate (52.56% vs. 29.76%, P<0.001), HCV RNA positivity rate (0.4% vs. 0.13%, P<0.001), and hepatitis C treatment rate (76.76% vs. 31.97%, P<0.001) were significantly higher among the inpatient population after the Fuxing Program initiation than before. The HCV RNA detection rate (58.52% vs. 6.93%, P<0.001) and HCV RNA detection positivity rate (77.72% vs. 29.41%, P<0.001) in Zhuhai were significantly higher after the Fuxing Program initiation than before. Anti-HCV positivity rate (0.46% vs. 1.28%, P=0.009) and HCV RNA (0.32% vs. 0.99%, P=0.03) were significantly lower in the Zhuhai general population of urban communities than those of the general population in rural areas. The HCV infection rate was more than three times higher in rural populations than in urban populations. Anti-HCV positivity rate, HCV RNA positivity rate, HCV RNA detection positivity rate, and hepatitis C treatment rates were 2.64% (31/1 175), 3.40% (69/2 022) and 94.4% (34/36), 2.64% (31/1 175), 2.72% (55/2 022), 50.00% (18/36), and 100% (31/31), 79.71% (55/69) and 52.94% (18/34), and 100% (31/31), 0 (0/55) and 55.55% (10/18) among the HIV infection, supervised population under supervised sites, and methadone maintenance treatment clinic population, respectively. Anti-HCV positivity rate (4.15% vs. 0.72%, P<0.001) and HCV RNA (3.22% vs. 0.53%, P<0.001) were significantly higher in the high-risk group than those in the general population, while the treatment rate of hepatitis C in the high-risk group (39.42% vs. 82.35%, P<0.01) was significantly lower than that of the general population. Conclusion:The establishment of the hospital grid linkage mechanism and the management model of hepatitis C follow-up by specialists, with the infectious diseases medical quality control center as the supervisory body, have improved the screening rate, the HCV RNA detection rate, and the treatment rate in the hospital, thereby providing a reference for exploring a management model to eliminate the nationwide threat of hepatitis C.

Objective:To investigate the correlation between postoperative spinal sagittal parameters and reinforced vertebral recompression fractures in patients with osteoporotic vertebral compression fractures (OVCFs) who have undergone percutaneous kyphoplasty (PKP).Methods:Data on patients with OVCFs treated with PKP at the Department of Orthopaedics, Second Affiliated Hospital of Soochow University, from August 2020 to August 2024, were collected. Among these, 31 patients who underwent single-segment PKP experienced postoperative reinforced vertebral recompression fractures (recompression fracture group), comprising 8 males and 23 females, with a mean age of 73.74±8.76 years, a body mass index (BMI) of 23.83±1.87 kg/m 2, and a bone mineral density T-value of -2.29±0.55. The remission rate of the visual analogue scale (VAS) after surgery was 80.14%±4.86%, with a mean volume of bone cement used at 5.37±0.69 ml. The surgical segments involved included T 5 (1 case), T 8 (1 case), T 10 (1 case), T 11 (4 cases), T 12 (9 cases), L 1 (7 cases), L 2 (4 cases), L 3 (2 cases), and L 4 (2 cases). Following a 1∶1 matching principle, 31 patients whose vertebrae did not experience reinforced recompression fractures during the same period (non-recompression fracture group) were included. This group also comprised 8 males and 23 females, with a mean age of 74.88±8.31 years, a BMI of 23.15±2.04 kg/m 2, a bone mineral density T-value of -2.76±0.64, and a VAS remission rate of 79.75%±5.01%. The mean volume of bone cement used in this group was 5.41±0.72 ml. The surgical segments involved included T 8 (1 case), T 10 (1 case), T 11 (4 cases), T 12 (8 cases), L 1 (7 cases), L 2 (5 cases), L 3 (2 cases), L 4 (2 cases), and L 5 (1 case). There were no statistically significant differences in the aforementioned indicators between the two patient groups ( P>0.05). A comparison of the postoperative spinal sagittal parameters between the two groups was conducted, focusing on the local kyphosis angle (LKA), lumbar lordosis (LL), thoracic kyphosis (TK), pelvic incidence (PI), pelvic tilt (PT), sacral slope (SS), and the lumbar-pelvic matching value (PI-LL). Indicators that exhibited statistically significant differences were included in the binary logistic regression analysis to evaluate the impact of spinal sagittal parameters following PKP on the recompression of the reinforced vertebral. Results:The time to reinforced vertebral recompression fractures after PKP ranged from 35 to 184 d, with a median of 69 d. The TK in the recompression fracture group (46.56°±7.02°) was significantly greater than that in the non-recompression fracture group (41.95°±5.76°). Additionally, the LKA, PI and SS were all smaller in the recompression fracture group (9.84°±2.13°, 41.36°±4.27°, 22.69°±5.53°, respectively) compared to the non-recompression fracture group (12.37°±2.64°, 48.09°±6.33°, 28.41°±7.64°), with all differences being statistically significant ( P<0.05). However, no significant differences were observed between the LL, PT, and PI-LL values ( P>0.05). TK, LKA, PI, and SS were included in the binary logistic regression analysis, which indicated that TK [ OR=1.533, 95% CI(1.47, 1.59)] after PKP was positively correlated with the occurrence of reinforced vertebral recompression fractures. Conversely, LKA [ OR=0.882, 95% CI(0.80, 0.96)], PI [ OR=0.815, 95% CI(0.71, 0.91)], and SS [ OR=0.833, 95% CI(0.73, 0.93)] were negatively correlated. Conclusions:The incidence of reinforced vertebral recompression fractures following PKP is associated with spinal sagittal parameters, including TK, LKA, PI, and SS. Specifically, a larger TK and smaller values of LKA, PI, and SS are correlated with an elevated risk of reinforced vertebral recompression fractures.

Polygonatum sibiricum, as a traditional Chinese medicine with both medicinal and edible properties, has attracted considerable attention due to its functions of nourishing Yin and moistening the lungs, tonifying the spleen and benefiting Qi, and nourishing the kidneys and filling essence. Recent studies have demonstrated that Polygonatum sibiricum plays a significant role in regulating the immune system, effectively enhancing and improving the morphology and function of immune organs, stimulating the proliferation and activation of immune cells, and regulating the secretion and release of immune factors, thereby enhancing the immune function of the body and improving various immune-related diseases. Although a large number of studies have explored the pharmacological effects and mechanisms of P. sibiricum, there has been no systematic review and summary of its immune regulatory activity and mechanisms. Therefore, this article comprehensively reviews the research achievements of P. sibiricum polysaccharides and saponins in the field of immune regulation in recent years, and further sorts out the immune regulatory mechanisms of P. sibiricum in multiple aspects: including increasing the organ index of the spleen and thymus, increasing the number and activity of tumor-suppressive bone marrow hematopoietic stem cells, improving intestinal flora imbalance, regulating the quantity and proportion of T lymphocyte subsets, increasing the level of immunoglobulin, promoting the proliferation of macrophages, enhancing the activity of natural killer cells, increasing the number of white blood cells, and promoting the maturation of dendritic cells, providing a solid theoretical basis and scientific evidence for the research and application of P. sibiricum, and promoting its development and application in traditional Chinese medicine immune enhancers and various functional products.

The hepatitis C virus (HCV) infection and treatment status were investigated and analyzed among the general population, high-risk populations such as human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) infection, drug addicts, and the population residing in supervised sites within Zhuhai communities, rural areas, schools, or factories. Results:Anti-HCV positivity rate (0.82% vs. 0.43%, P<0.001), HCV RNA detection rate (98.1% vs. 59.5%, P<0.001), HCV RNA detection positivity rate (52.56% vs. 29.76%, P<0.001), HCV RNA positivity rate (0.4% vs. 0.13%, P<0.001), and hepatitis C treatment rate (76.76% vs. 31.97%, P<0.001) were significantly higher among the inpatient population after the Fuxing Program initiation than before. The HCV RNA detection rate (58.52% vs. 6.93%, P<0.001) and HCV RNA detection positivity rate (77.72% vs. 29.41%, P<0.001) in Zhuhai were significantly higher after the Fuxing Program initiation than before.

Objective:To explore the difference of inflammatory factor imbalance between adolescent and adult patients with depression.Methods:A total of 30 adolescent and 30 adult patients with depression, and 30 adolescent and 30 adult healthy controls were included from January 2022 to August 2023. Interleukin-6 (IL-6), interleukin-17 (IL-17), transforming growth factor-beta1(TGF-β1), interleukin-10(IL-10) and Maresin-1(MaR1) level were detected by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay. 24-item Hamilton depression scale (HAMD-24) was used to assess the severity of depression in all depressed patients. SPSS 26.0 statistical software was used for t-test, covariance analysis, Spearman analysis and multivariate binary logistic regression, and the predictive value of selected inflammatory factors in depression was evaluated by receiver operating characteristic(ROC) curve. Results:(1)In adolescent group, the levels of IL-6 ((64.000±38.632) pg/mL), IL-17((239.132±49.757) pg/mL), and TGF-β1((737.267±328.447)pg/mL) in patients with depression were higher than those in control group((32.396±16.330)pg/mL, (214.954±42.326)pg/mL, (454.542±297.194)pg/mL, all P<0.05), while the level of MaR1((21 381.301±3 946.011)pg/mL) was significantly lower than that in control group((30 130.138±10 278.999)pg/mL)( P<0.001). The level of IL-17 was positively correlated with the total score of HAMD-24 ( r=0.429) and the course of disease ( r=0.571), the level of IL-10 was negatively correlated with body weight factor score ( r=-0.384), and the levels of TGF-β1 was negatively correlated with anxiety/somatization factor score ( r=-0.449)(all P<0.05) in adolescent patients with depression.MaR1( B=0.000 1, OR=0.999 8, AUC=0.794, P<0.05) was an independent risk factor for adolescents depression.(2)In adult depression group, the levels of IL-6, IL-17, IL-10, TGF-β1 and MaR1 were higher than those in adult control group(all P<0.05). The level of TGF-β1 in adult depression group was negatively correlated with the total score of HAMD-24 ( r=-0.427), the score of anxiety/somatization factor ( r=-0.368), the score of blocking factor ( r=-0.405), and the score of hopelessness factor ( r=-0.398).The level of MaR1 was positively correlated with the age of onset of disease ( r=0.425)(all P<0.05) in adult patients with depression.MaR1( B=0.000 4, OR=1.000 3, AUC=0.874, P<0.001) and IL-6( B=0.040, OR=1.040 7, AUC=0.779, P<0.05) were independent risk factors for adult depression.The AUC of IL-6 combined with MaR1 was 0.938. Conclusion:There are differences in the underlying mechanism of immune imbalance between adolescent and adult patients with depression.MaR1 may be a diagnostic biomarker for depression in adolescents and adults.

Objective:To compare the antiosteoporosis effect of conventional treatment and conventional treatment combined with Denosumab after percutaneous kyphoplasty (PKP) for osteoporotic vertebral compression fractures (OVCF).Methods:A retrospective cohort study was conducted to analyze the clinical data of 211 patients with OVCF admitted to the Second Affiliated Hospital of Soochow University from September 2020 to September 2022. All the patients were female, aged 56-90 years [(71.4±8.1)years]. The bone mineral density T-score of the lumbar spine was (-2.6±1.0)SD before operation. Fracture segments included T 1-T 9 in 45 patients, T 10-L 2 in 146, and L 3-L 5 in 69. Of all, 174 patients were treated with single-segment surgery, 25 with two-segment surgery and 12 with surgery involving three or more segments. According to the wishes of the patients, 107 patients were treated with daily oral administration of calcium and active Vitamin D after PKP (conventional treatment group) and 104 patients with Denosumab combined with the conventional treatment after PKP (Denosumab therapy group). The bone mineral density T-scores of the lumbar spine of the two groups were compared before surgery and at the last follow-up. The visual analogue scale (VAS) and Oswestry disability index (ODI) before surgery, at 3 days, 6 months after surgery, and at the last follow-up were evaluated and the refracture rate after surgery was detected. Possible adverse effects after medication during anti-osteoporosis treatment were observed in two the groups. Results:All the patients were followed up for 12-24 months [(13.5±2.0)months]. Before surgery, the bone mineral density T-score of the lumbar spine was (-2.7±1.1)SD in the Denosumab therapy group and (-2.5±0.8)SD in the conventional treatment group ( P>0.05). At the last follow-up, the bone mineral density T-score of the lumbar spine was (-2.1±1.1)SD in the Denosumab therapy group, significantly higher than (-2.5±0.9)SD in the conventional treatment group ( P<0.05). In the Denosumab therapy group, the bone mineral density T-score of the lumbar spine at the last follow-up was significantly increased compared to that before surgery ( P<0.01), while there was no significant difference in the conventional treatment group ( P<0.05). Before surgery and at 3 days after surgery, the VAS scores and ODI values were (8.5±0.9)points, (2.8±0.8)points, 48.7±4.8 and 25.6±4.0 in the Denosumab therapy group, which was not statistically different from those in the conventional treatment group [(8.5±1.3)points and (2.8±0.9)points, 47.9±7.0 and 25.9±3.7] ( P>0.05). At 6 months after surgery and at the last follow-up, the VAS scores and ODI values were (2.2±0.8)points, (1.7±0.8)points, 24.2±3.6 and 23.2±4.1 in the Denosumab therapy group, significantly lower than those of the conventional treatment group [(2.8±0.9)points, (2.8±1.1)points, 26.4±3.2 and 27.3±4.0] ( P<0.01). The VAS scores at each time point after surgery in both groups decreased significantly compared with those before surgery ( P<0.05). The VAS scores continued to decrease after surgery in the Denosumab therapy group ( P<0.05), while no significant difference was found among those at different time points in the conventional treatment group ( P>0.05). The ODI values at each time point after surgery in both groups significantly decreased compared to those before surgery ( P<0.05). The ODI values continued to decrease after surgery in the Denosumab therapy group ( P<0.05), while in the conventional treatment group, no significant difference was found between those at 6 months after surgery and those at 3 days after surgery ( P>0.05) and they were improved at the last follow-up compared with those at 3 days after surgery ( P<0.05). The refracture rate after surgery was 6.7% (7/104) in the Denosumab therapy group, significantly lower than 16.8% (18/107) in the conventional treatment group ( P<0.05). No serious complications were observed during the antiosteoporosis period in either group. Conclusion:Compared with daily oral administration of Calcium and active Vitamin D after PKP, the conventional treatment combined with Denosumab after PKP can effectively increase the bone density, relieve pain continuously, improve functional restoration, and reduce the risk of refracture in OVCF patients.

Objective To investigate the predictive value of vitamin D,sex hormones and their receptors in the development and regression of male patients with clinical isolated syndrome(CIS).Methods A total of 40 male CIS patients were included in the CIS group and 30 healthy subjects matched in age and long-term res-idence were included in the control group.The levels of vitamin D[1,25(OH)2D2 and 1,25(OH)2D3]inpe-ripheral blood of the included individuals and the first relapsed multiple sclerosis patients(MS group)were detected by ultra-high-performance liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry.The levels of testoster-one(T),progesterone(P),and estradiol(E2)in peripheral blood were detected by electrochemiluminescence.Estrogen receptor(ERα,ERβ),androgen receptor(AR)and vitamin D receptor(VDR)levels in lymphocyte supernatant were detected by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay(ELISA).Results After a median follow-up of 31.5 months,29 patients(72.5%)with CIS were converted to multiple sclerosis.Compared with pa-tients with non-recurrent CIS patients,patients with multiple sclerosis had a younger age of onset and were prone to positive oligoclonal bands.Compared with HC group,vitamin D levels were reduced in CIS patients,and the difference was statistically significant(P<0.05).When CIS patients reverted to multiple sclerosis,se-rum levels of E2,ERα,and ERβ were elevated compared with those before relapse,and the levels of testosteroneand AR were decreased,and the difference was statistically significant(P<0.05).Correlation analysis showed no correlation between peripheral blood levels of vitamin D,sex hormones and their receptors and EDSS in CIS patients.Conclusion Male CIS patients with younger onset age and positive oligoclonal bands are prone to transition to multiple sclerosis.The decrease of vitamin D level may be associated with the onset of male CIS.Vitamin D,sex hormones,and their receptors have no predictive value in the conversion of CIS to multiple sclerosis.
