Objective:
To establish a prediction model for high-risk cardiovascular disease (CVD) among residents aged 35 to 75 years, so as to provide the basis for improving CVD prevention and control measures.
Methods:
Permanent residents aged 35 to 75 years were selected from Dongcheng District, Beijing Municipality using the stratified random sampling method from 2018 to 2023. Demographic information, lifestyle, waist circumference and blood biochemical indicators were collected through questionnaire surveys, physical examinations and laboratory tests. Influencing factors for high-risk CVD among residents aged 35 to 75 years were identified using a multivariable logistic regression model, and a prediction model for high-risk CVD was established. The predictive effect was evaluated using the receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve.
Results:
A total of 6 968 individuals were surveyed, including 2 821 males (40.49%) and 4 147 females (59.51%), and had a mean age of (59.92±9.33) years. There were 1 155 high-risk CVD population, with a detection rate of 16.58%. Multivariable logistic regression analysis showed that gender, age, smoking, central obesity, systolic blood pressure, fasting blood glucose, triglyceride and low-density lipoprotein cholesterol were influencing factors for high-risk CVD among residents aged 35 to 75 years (all P<0.05). The area under the ROC curve of the established prediction model was 0.849 (95%CI: 0.834-0.863), with a sensitivity of 0.693 and a specificity of 0.863, indicating good discrimination.
Conclusion
The model constructed by eight factors including demographic characteristics, lifestyle and blood biochemical indicators has good predictive value for high-risk CVD among residents aged 35 to 75 years.

Aim To investigate the effect of ellagic acid (EA) on cognitive function in APP/PS 1 double- transgenic mice, and to explore the regulatory mechanism of ellagic acid on the level of oxidative stress in the hippocampus of double-transgenic mice based on the phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase/protein kinase B/glycogen synthase kinase-3 (PI3K/AKT/GSK-3 β) signaling pathway. Methods Thirty-two SPF-grade 6-month-old APP/PS 1 double transgenic mice were randomly divided into four groups, namely, APP/PS 1 group, APP/PS1 + EA group, APP/PS1 + LY294002 group, APP/PS 1 + EA + LY294002 group, with eight mice in each group, and eight SPF-grade C57BL/6J wild type mice ( Wild type) were selected as the blank control group. The APP/PS 1 + EA group was given 50 mg · kg

Objective To observe the clinical efficacy and safety of esketamine injection combined with sufentanil injection for patient-controlled intravenous analgesia(PCIA)after fracture surgery in children.Methods Children scheduled for elective limb fracture incision and internal fixation were randomly divided into control group and treatment group.The control group was given 2 μg·kg-1 sufentanil for PCIA;the treatment group was given 1.0 mg·kg-1 esketamine combined with 1.5 μg·kg-1 sufentanil for PCIA.Background dose of 2 groups:2 mL·h-1,single dose of 2 mL each time,locking time of 15 min,total volume of 100 mL.The facial expression,leg movement,mobility,crying,consolability scale(FLACC)scores and Ramsay sedation scores,analgesic drug consumption and PCIA compression times within 48 h after operation,and adverse drug reactions were compared between the two groups at different time points after operation.Results Forty subjects enrolled in the treatment group,1 dropped out,and 39 were finally included in the statistical analysis;40 subjects enrolled in the control group,2 dropped out,and 38 were finally included in the statistical analysis.After treatment,the FLACC scores of treatment group at 2,4,6,12,24 and 48 h after operation were(4.75±0.93),(2.50±0.97),(1.75±0.93),(2.06±1.18),(1.13±0.62)and(0.50±0.63)points,which in control group were(6.13±1.13),(3.80±1.21),(2.87±0.64),(3.47±1.13),(1.87±0.92)and(1.27±0.80)points,and there were significant differences in the two groups(all P<0.05).The Ramsay sedation scores of treatment and control groups at 2 hours after operation were(2.25±0.45)and(1.47±0.52)points;the number of effective PCIA compressions within 24 hours was 4.25±3.94 and 8.13±5.71;the amount of analgesic drugs used within 24 hours after surgery was(52.38±9.11)and(61.47±12.82)mL;the amount of analgesic drugs used within 48 hours after surgery was(88.81±14.31)and(94.60±5.93)mL,respectively;and the differences were statistically significant(all P<0.05).The adverse drug reactions of two groups were mainly dizziness,nausea and vomiting.The total incidences of adverse drug reactions in treatment and control groups were 53.85%and 84.21%with significant difference(P<0.05).Conclusion Esketamine injection combined with sufentanil injection can reduce postoperative pain intensity,improve analgesic sedation effect and reduce the incidence of adverse reactions of analgesic pump after fracture surgery in children.

Objective:To investigate the clinical characteristics and offer diagnostic and therapeutic approaches for adult-onset idiopathic hypogonadotropic hypogonadism(AIHH).Methods:Clinical, laboratory, and imaging data, as well as follow-up information, of three male patients diagnosed with AIHH at the Department of Endocrinology and Metabolism of Nanfang Hospital, Southern Medical University, were systematically reviewed and analyzed.Results:All three patients were male, with a median age of 39 years(range, 22 to 40). Two patients reported symptoms of enlarged breasts and reduced sexual function, while one case solely reported a decline in sexual function. Physical examination showed that the median length of the penis was 6 cm(range, 5 to 6 cm), and the bilateral testicular volume was 7.96 mL(4.70-8.82 mL). Basal hormone levels at the time of initial visit to our hospital as follows: the median testosterone level was 0.32 ng/mL(0.24-2.96 ng/mL), median follicle stimulating hormone(FSH) level was 0.56 mIU/mL(0.1-0.75 mIU/mL), and the median luteinizing hormone(LH) level was 0.69 mIU/mL(0.1-1.03 mIU/mL). The levels of other hormones secreted by the anterior pituitary gland were normal. Hypothalamic-pituitary magnetic resonance imaging(MRI) showed that 1 patient had a pituitary microadenoma. Three patients were treated with pulsatile GnRH or gonadotropins, one of which had hypothalamic-pituitary-gonadal(HPG) axis function reversal after GnRH pulse pump therapy and lasted for 1 year, but then still had irreversible reduction.Conclusion:AIHH is marked by adult-onset disease and idiopathic hypogonadism. Enhancing fertility remains a critical requirement for these patients. Pulsatile GnRH treatment or gonadotropin therapy, as viable treatments, exhibit therapeutic effects, albeit with occasional fluctuations. Therefore, the emphasis lies in the timely consideration of fertility preservation.

Objective The aim of this study was to assess the impact of bisphenol A (BPA) and its substitute, bisphenol F (BPF), on the colonic fecal community structure and function of mice.Methods We exposed 6-8-week-old male C57BL/6 mice to 5 mg/(kg·day) and 50 μg/(kg·day) of BPA or BPF for 14 days. Fecal samples from the colon were analyzed using 16S rRNA sequencing. Results Gut microbiome community richness and diversity, species composition, and function were significantly altered in mice exposed to BPA or BPF. This change was characterized by elevated levels of Ruminococcaceae UCG-010 and Oscillibacter and decreased levels of Prevotella 9 and Streptococcus. Additionally, pathways related to carbohydrate and amino acid metabolism showed substantial enrichment. Conclusion Mice exposed to different BP analogs exhibited distinct gut bacterial community richness, composition, and related metabolic pathways. Considering the essential role of gut bacteria in maintaining intestinal homeostasis, our study highlights the intestinal toxicity of BPs in vertebrates.
