Objective To investigate the registration rate and trend of pulmonary tuberculosis complicated with diabetes mellitus (PTB-DM) in Wuhan from 2020 to 2024, and to provide scientific evidence for formulating PTB-DM prevention and control policies. Methods PTB-DM case data in Wuhan (2020-2024) were collected through the Infectious Disease Registration and Management Information System. Joinpoint regression model was employed to analyze the trend of registration rates of PTB-DM among the general population and across different regions, genders, and age groups. ARIMA model was used to predict the short-term prevalence of PTB-DM. Results Among 26275 pulmonary tuberculosis cases registered in Wuhan (2020-2024), 2669 cases (10.16%) were PTB-DM. The average annual registration rate of PTB-DM was 3.96/100,000, increasing from 2.74/100,000 in 2020 to 5.40/100,000 in 2024 (APC=19.07%, 95% CI:12.99%-26.92%, P<0.001). The PTB-DM registration rates showed an upward trend across different regions, genders, and age groups in Wuhan, with higher registration rates observed in near urban area, males, and individuals aged 60~64 and 65 years and above (χ²=99.566, P<0.001; χ²=781.891, P<0.001; χ²=2211.930, P<0.001). ARIMA model predicted that the prevalence of PTB-DM in Wuhan would remain stable and fluctuating in the short time. Conclusion PTB-DM registration rate in Wuhan increases from 2020 to 2024. Near urban area, males, and elderly populations are high risk groups. Future efforts should focus on strengthening the prevention and control of PTB-DM among these populations.

ObjectiveTo investigate the effect of high-definition transcranial direct current stimulation (HD-tDCS) combined with upper limb robot on upper limb dysfunction in patients with ischemic stroke. MethodsFrom January, 2023 to March, 2024, 56 inpatients with upper limb dysfunction after ischemic stroke were selected from Zhejiang Rehabilitation Medical Center, and divided into control group (n = 28) and experimental group (n = 28) randomly. All the patients received comprehensive treatment and upper limb robot training, while the control group received sham HD-tDCS and the experimental group received HD-tDCS, for four weeks. They were assessed with Fugl-Meyer Assessment-Upper Extremities (FMA-UE), Wolf Motor Function Test (WMFT) and modified Barthel Index (MBI) before and after treatment. The cortical amplitude, cortical latency and central motor conduction time (CMCT) of transcranial magnetic stimulation motor-evoked potential (MEP) were recorded, and a correlation analysis was conducted. ResultsThe scores of FMA-UE, WMFT and MBI, and MEP cortical amplitude, cortical latency and CMCT improved in both groups after treatment (t > 3.177, P < 0.01), and they were better in the experimental group than in the control group (t > 3.610, P < 0.01). The scores of FMA-UE and WMFT negatively correlated with MEP cortical latency and CMCT, and positively correlated with MEP cortical amplitude (|r| > 0.448, P < 0.001). ConclusionHD-tDCS is effective on upper limb motor function and activities of daily living for patients with ischemic stroke, and can improve corticospinal motor conduction.

OBJECTIVE To construct ensemble learning models for predicting high-use days of budesonide based on meteorological factors， thereby providing reference for hospital pharmacy management. METHODS Meteorological data for 2024 and outpatient budesonide usage data from the jurisdiction of Sanming Hospital of Integrated Traditional Chinese and Western Medicine were collected. High-use days were defined as the 75th percentile of outpatient budesonide usage， and a corresponding dataset was established. The prediction task was formulated as a classification problem， and three ensemble learning models were developed： Random Forest， Extreme Gradient Boosting （XGBoost）， and Histogram-based Gradient Boosting Classifier. Model performance was evaluated using accuracy， precision， recall， F1-score， and log-loss. Model interpretability was analyzed using Shapley Additive Explanations （SHAP）. RESULTS The Histogram-based Gradient Boosting Classifier achieved the best performance （accuracy＝0.75， F1-score＝0.48）， followed by XGBoost （accuracy＝0.74， F1-score＝0.43） and Random Forest （accuracy＝0.72， F1-score＝0.22）. SHAP results suggested that the prediction results of the last two models have the highest correction. CONCLUSIONS Ensemble learning models can effectively predict high-use days of budesonide， with the Histogram- based Gradient Boosting Classifier demonstrating the best predictive performance. Low temperature， high humidity， and low atmospheric pressure show significant positive impacts on the prediction of daily budesonide usage.

Objective To investigate the application effect of the anterolateral thigh perforator flap(ALTPF)with end-to-side anastomosis of non-primary source vessels in repairing soft tissue defects in the hands and feet.Methods Ninety-six patients with soft tissue defects in the hands and feet of the Third People's Hospital of Xinjiang Uygur Autonomous Region from March 2021 to June 2023 were randomly divided into two groups using a random number table method,with 48 cases in each group.The control group was treated with a conventional subcutaneous artery perforator flap,while the observation group was treated with an end-to-side anastomosis of non-primary source vessels using an ALTF.The repair indicators of tissue defects,the recovery of sensory function,the recovery of hand and foot function,and the incidence of complications were compared between the two groups at 1 month and 3 months after surgery.Results The wound healing time in the observation group and the control group was(19.35±3.89)days and(23.72±4.76)days,respectively,with a statistically significant difference(P＜0.05).There was no significant difference in the preparation time,survival rate,and stage Ⅰ healing rate of the two groups of skin flaps(P＞0.05).At 1 month and 3 months after surgery,the proportions of patients with pain sensation in the observation group and control group were 70.83％and 50.00％,respectively,and 100.00％and 79.17％,respectively.The proportions of patients with cold and hot sensation were 66.67％and 45.83％,respectively,and 97.92％and 72.92％,respectively.The distance of two-point discrimination was(30.69±6.10)mum and(34.40±7.36)mm,respectively,and(15.23±3.72)mm and(22.36±5.28)mm,respectively,with a statistically significant difference(P＜0.05).There was no significant difference in the excellent and good rate of hand and foot function between the two groups 3 months after surgery(P＞0.05).The incidence of complications in the observation group was 4.17％,which was lower than that in the control group(22.91％),and the difference was statistically significant(P＜0.05).Conclusion ALTPF repair of soft tissue defects in the hands and feet with end-to-side anastomosis of non-primary source vessels can improve wound healing rates,improve sensory function,and reduce the incidence of complications.

HDAC7, a member of class IIa HDACs, plays a pivotal regulatory role in tumor, immune, fibrosis, and angiogenesis, rendering it a potential therapeutic target. Nevertheless, due to the high similarity in the enzyme active sites of class IIa HDACs, inhibitors encounter challenges in discerning differences among them. Furthermore, the substitution of key residue in the active pocket of class IIa HDACs renders them pseudo-enzymes, leading to a limited impact of enzymatic inhibitors on their function. In this study, proteolysis targeting chimera (PROTAC) technology was employed to develop HDAC7 drugs. We developed an exceedingly selective HDAC7 PROTAC degrader B14 which showcased superior inhibitory effects on cell proliferation compared to TMP269 in various diffuse large B cell lymphoma (DLBCL) and acute myeloid leukemia (AML) cells. Subsequent investigations unveiled that B14 disrupts BCL6 forming a transcriptional inhibition complex by degrading HDAC7, thereby exerting proliferative inhibition in DLBCL. Our study broadened the understanding of the non-enzymatic functions of HDAC7 and underscored the importance of HDAC7 in the treatment of hematologic malignancies, particularly in DLBCL and AML.

Glucose oxidase (GOD) is an oxygen-consuming dehydrogenase that can catalyze the production of gluconic acid hydrogen peroxide from glucose, and its specific mechanism of action makes it promising for applications, while the low catalytic activity and poor thermostability have become the main factors limiting the industrial application of this enzyme. In this study, we used the glucose oxidase AtGOD reported with the best thermostability as the source sequence for phylogenetic analysis to obtain the GOD with excellent performance. Six genes were screened and successfully synthesized for functional validation. Among them, the glucose oxidase AhGODB derived from Aspergillus heteromorphus was expressed in Pichia pastoris and showed better thermostability and catalytic activity, with an optimal temperature of 40 ℃, a specific activity of 112.2 U/mg, and a relative activity of 47% after 5 min of treatment at 70 ℃. To improve its activity and thermal stability, we constructed several mutants by directed evolution combined with rational design. Compared with the original enzyme, the mutant T72R/A153P showcased the optimum temperature increasing from 40 to 50 ℃, the specific activity increasing from 112.2 U/mg to 166.1 U/mg, and the relative activity after treatment at 70 ℃ for 30 min increasing from 0% to 33%. In conclusion, the glucose oxidase mutants obtained in this study have improved catalytic activity and thermostability, and have potential for application.
