BACKGROUND:Currently,numerous experiments delve into the intricate anatomy and biomechanical behavior of distinct segments of the supraspinatus muscle.However,the impact of shoulder joint stress resulting from damage to various regions of this muscle remains a scarcely explored domain.Understanding the repercussions of supraspinatus muscle injuries across different regions on the stress distribution and magnitude of articular cartilage and the glenoid is crucial for providing some theoretical support for clinical diagnosis and treatment. OBJECTIVE:To ascertain the maximum stress values by simulating different degrees of supraspinatus muscle rupture on the humeral cartilage surface,glenoid lip,and glenoid cartilage joint surface using three-dimensional finite element software. METHODS:Normal and healthy shoulder joint CT or MRI scans were processed through Mimics and Geomagic to extract molds.Subsequently,models were constructed via Solidworks.Varying degrees of supraspinatus muscle damage were simulated for each model to mimic fractures in different regions.Finally,Ansys,mechanical software,was employed for three-dimensional finite element biomechanical analysis,calculating stress values for the humeral cartilage surface,glenoid lip,and glenoid cartilage joint surface. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:(1)With worsening degrees of supraspinatus muscle injury,the stress on the shoulder joint cartilage surface and glenoid lip escalated.(2)Among various regions,the anterior part of the supraspinatus muscle exhibited paramount significance.(3)While supraspinatus muscle fractures of differing degrees impacted the magnitude of cartilage stress on the glenoid labial surface,the stress distribution remained constant.(4)It is indicated that during the initial stages of horizontal abduction of the shoulder joint,the anterior region assumes a pivotal role,followed by the posterior deep region.Injury to the anterior part of the supraspinatus muscle leads to a significant surge in stress within the shoulder joint's soft tissue,potentially causing damage to the top of the glenoid lip and the anterior part of the glenoid cartilage.

ObjectiveTo investigate the inhibitory effect of Biejia Decoction Pill on the proliferation， migration， and aerobic glycolysis of hepatocellular carcinoma （HCC） using cell experiments， as well as related mechanisms. MethodsHuman liver cancer cell line Huh7 was selected， and Sprague-Dawley rats were randomly divided into blank serum group， inhibitor group， and high-， middle-， and low-dose Biejia Decoction Pill groups. Rat serum containing the drug was prepared for the incubation of Huh7 cells. CCK8 assay and scratch assay were used to explore the effect of Biejia Decoction Pill on the proliferation and migration of HCC cells； glycolytic rate-limiting enzymes and metabolites were measured to explore the effect of Biejia Decoction Pill on aerobic glycolysis of liver cancer cells； RT-qPCR and Western blot were used to explore the effect of Biejia Decoction Pill on the mRNA expression， related proteins， and phosphorylation of the protein kinase B （AKT）/mammalian target of rapamycin （mTOR） signaling pathway. A one-way analysis of variance was used for comparison between multiple groups， and the least significant difference t-test or the Dunnett’s T3 test were used for further comparison between two groups. ResultsCompared with the blank serum group， the Biejia Decoction Pill groups had significant reductions in OD value， migration rate during different periods of time， glycolytic rate-limiting enzymes （hexokinase， phosphofructokinase， pyruvate kinase）， and glycolytic metabolites （pyruvate， lactic acid， ATP） （all P<0.05）. RT-qPCR results showed that compared with the blank serum group， the high-， middle-， and low-dose Biejia Decoction Pill groups had a significant reduction in the mRNA expression level of mTOR， and the high- and low-dose Biejia Decoction Pill groups had a significant reduction in the mRNA expression level of AKT （all P<0.05）. Western blot results showed that compared with the blank serum group， the high-， middle-， and low-dose Biejia Decoction Pill groups had significant reductions in the expression levels of mTOR-related proteins and phosphorylated proteins， and the high- and middle-dose Biejia Decoction Pill groups had significant reductions in the expression levels of AKT-related proteins and phosphorylated proteins （all P<0.05）. ConclusionThis study preliminarily verifies that the serum containing Bijia Decoction Pill can inhibit the aerobic glycolysis of human hepatoma Huh7 cells， thereby inhibiting their proliferation and migration， possibly by inhibiting the expression of the proteins related to the AKT/mTOR signaling pathway.

Objective To investigate the prevalence of metabolic associated fatty liver disease(MAFLD)and its correlation with metabolic components among personnel on tropical islands.Methods The data of personnel who received health examination on islands in 2024 were analyzed,and they were grouped with the age limit of 30 years old to compare the detection rates of MAFLD and metabolic components in different age groups.In people aged≥ 30 years old,the age,gender,body mass index(BMI),waist circumference(WC),fasting blood glucose,blood lipids,liver function,kidney function and other indexes were compared between MAFLD and non-MAFLD groups.Univariate and multivariate logistic regression models were conducted to analyze the factors affecting the occurrence of MAFLD.The effects of various metabolic components on the risk of MAFLD in different age groups were analyzed by subgroup analyses.Results Among 1213 personnel,175(14.4％)cases had MAFLD,of which 141(80.6％)cases were mild,32(18.3％)were moderate,and 2(1.1％)were severe.The detection rates of MAFLD(25.6％[74/289]vs 10.9％[101/924])and overweight/obesity(55.7％[161/289]vs 37.7％[348/924])in age ≥ 30 years old were significantly higher than those in age＜30 years old(both P＜0.001).In people aged≥ 30 years old,compared with the non-MAFLD group,the BMI,WC,systolic blood pressure,diastolic blood pressure,triglyceride(TG),low density lipoprotein-cholesterol,alanine transaminase,aspartate transaminase,gamma glutamyltransferase and uric acid(UA)in the MAFLD group were significantly higher(all P＜0.05),and the high density lipoprotein-cholesterol(HDL-C)was significantly lower(P＜0.05).There were no significant differences in age,gender,fast blood glucose,total cholesterol,alkaline phosphatase,total bilirubin,serum creatinine,or blood urea nitrogen(all P＞0.05).Logistic regression analysis showed that WC was an independent risk factor for MAFLD(odds ratio[OR]=1.101,95％confidence interval[95％CI]1.030-1.176,P=0.004);HDL-C was an independent protective factor for MAFLD(OR=0.071,95％CI0.016-0.323,P=0.001);and BMI ≥24.0 kg/m2 and WC≥90 cm were positively correlated with MAFLD(both P＜0.01).In people aged≥30 years old,the risk of MAFLD was increased in those with overweight/obesity,arterial blood pressure≥ 130/85 mmHg(1 mmHg=0.133 kPa),TG≥1.7 mmol/L,HDL-C≤1.0 mmol/L and UA＞420 μmol/L(all P＜0.05),and the risk of MAFLD was most significantly increased in overweight/obesity people(hazard ratio[HR]=5.088,95％CI 2.724-9.504,P＜0.001).Among people aged＜30 years old,the risk of MAFLD was increased in those with overweight/obesity and UA＞420 μmol/L(both P＜0.01),and the risk of MAFLD was most significantly increased in overweight/obesity individuals(HR=6.305,95％CI3.973-10.006,P＜0.001).Conclusion The detection rates of MAFLD and various metabolic components are higher in the personnel on tropical islands,and the risk of MAFLD is higher in those with overweight/obesity,TG≥1.7 mmol/L and hyperuricemia.

Objective To investigate the relationship between 9 immunoinflammatory indicators derived from complete blood count and the severity of Mycoplasma pneumoniae pneumonia(MPP)in children of different ages.Methods Totally 2 132 children with MPP who were hospitalized in the Department of Pediatrics of The First Affiliated Hospital of Naval Medical University from Jul.1,2023,to Dec.31,2024 were enrolled,and were assigned to severe MPP(SMPP)or non-severe MPP(NSMPP)groups.According to age and gender 1∶1 matching,the children were assigned to 2 subgroups according to age(1-6 years old and＞6-16 years old).The basic data,laboratory examination and immunoinflammatory indicators from complete blood count of each group were collected and compared.The influencing factors of SMPP were analyzed by univariate and multivariate Cox proportional hazards regression models.Receiver operating characteristic curves were used to analyze the predictive value of indicators that showed statistically significant differences for SMPP.Results There were 220 patients with SMPP,accounting for 10.3%of MPP.In children aged 1-6 years,compared with the NSMPP group,the SMPP group had a longer hospital stay,higher platelet(PLT)count,platelet-to-lymphocyte ratio(PLR),neutrophil-to-lymphocyte ratio,derived neutrophil-to-lymphocyte ratio and systemic immune-inflammation index(all P＜0.05).PLR was an independent risk factor for SMPP(odds ratio=1.010,95%confidence interval[CI]1.003-1.018,P=0.007).The area under curve predicted by PLR for SMPP was 0.635(95%CI 0.560-0.711,P＜0.001),the best cut-off value was 125.04,and the corresponding sensitivity and specificity were 57.7%and 70.2%,respectively.All the children were assigned to low PLR group or high PLR group using the best cut-offvalue as the boundary,and the severe disease rate in the high PLR group was significantly higher than that in the low PLR group(65.9%[60/91]vs 37.6%[44/117],P＜0.001).All the children were assigned to Q1-Q4 groups by quartile,and the severe disease rate of the Q4 group(71.2%,37/52)was significantly higher than that of the Q1-Q3 group(all P＜0.05).In children aged＞6-16 years,compared with the NSMPP group,the PLT and PLR in the SMPP group were higher(both P＜0.05),but neither was an independent risk factor.All the children were assigned to low PLR group or high PLR group using the best cut-offvalue(137.03)as the boundary,and the severe disease rate in the high PLR group was significantly higher than that in the low PLR group(57.0%[77/135]vs 40.2%[39/97],P=0.011).All the children were assigned to Q1-Q4 groups by quartile,and the severe disease rate of the Q4 group(65.5%,38/58)was significantly higher than that of the Q1-Q3 group(all P＜0.05).Conclusion The immunoinflammatory indicators derived from complete blood count,especially PLR,have certain application value in predicting the severity of MPP children in different ages.

Objective:To compare the clinical and laboratory characteristics and survival between Chinese and Western patients with myelodysplastic neoplasms (MDS) .Methods:Clinical and laboratory data were collected from 1,464 primary adult patients diagnosed with MDS at the Institute of Hematology & Blood Diseases Hospital from August 2016 to June 2024. Collected data were retrospectively analyzed and compared with 2,191 patients from the International Working Group for the Prognosis of Myelodysplastic Syndromes (IWG-PM) .Results:Chinese patients were significantly younger (median age: 56 years vs. 72 years, P<0.001) and experienced more severe hematopenia ( P<0.001) compared with patients from the IWG-PM. Further, Chinese patients exhibited a higher percentage of isolated del (20q), +8, and complex karyotypes as well as a lower percentage of normal karyotypes, del (5q), and -Y ( P<0.001). Higher U2AF1, NRAS, and NPM1 mutation rates and lower ASXL1, SF3B1, and RUNX1 mutation rates were observed in Chinese patients than in participants from the IWG-PM ( P<0.05). No significant difference in overall survival (OS) was found between the two groups (median OS: 48 [95% CI: 40 - 56]months, vs. 45[95% CI: 40 - 49] months; P=0.449). Among participants aged ≤45 years, Chinese patients demonstrated more trisomy 8 ( P=0.070) and U2AF1 mutation ( P<0.001) and higher 4-year OS rate compared with those from the IWG-PM (75.5% vs. 62.1%, P=0.001). Among participants aged ≥70 years, Chinese patients exhibited more complex karyotypes but fewer del (5q) as well as more NPM1 but less SF3B1 and TET2 compared with those from the IWG-PM ( P<0.05). Chinese patients demonstrated shorter survival (median OS: 20 [95% CI: 13 - 27] months vs. 37 [95% CI: 32 - 42] months, P<0.001) . Conclusion:Chinese and Western MDS patients differ in age of onset, clinical features, and cytogenetic or molecular genetic abnormalities, with significant differences persisting in age-matched groups. Although the OS is similar, disparities exist in survival for younger and older patients between the two populations.

Objective:To evaluate the effect of applying function-related grouping model of Changsha medical insurance for patients convalescing from a cerebral infarction using the International Classification of Functioning, Disability and Health′s rehabilitation set (ICF-RS).Methods:Ninety cerebral infarction patients in convalescence were treated according to their functional status, including clinical treatment, rehabilitation, traditional Chinese medicine treatment, and rehabilitation nursing. Within 3 days after admission and at the time of discharge, they were evaluated using a comprehensive assessment system for cerebral infarction based on the ICF-RS. The modified Ashworth scale (MAS), Fugl-Meyer assessment (FMA), the mini-mental state examination (MMSE) and the Boston diagnostic aphasia examination (BDAE) were also employed.Results:With the exception of ICF-RS item b280 (pain perception) and item x005 of the MAS, all of the remaining assessments indicated significant enhancements compared to the pre-treatment levels. Functional severity grading also improved significantly after the treatment. Thirteen of the ICF-RS categories indicated more favorable therapeutic outcomes after the treatment. That was accompanied by improvements in the FMA upper limb, lower limb and total scores, and in the MMSE scores. However, no significant disparity was detected in the MAS scores or the BDAE grades before and after treatment.Conclusions:The comprehensive evaluation system based on the ICF-RS effectively evaluates the effectiveness of rehabilitation after cerebral infarction in a way suitable for medical insurance purposes.

Objective:To explore the clinical features and molecular characteristics of myeloproliferative neoplasms (MPNs) patients with NFE2 gene mutations.Methods:Gene targeted sequencing was used to detect NFE2 gene mutation in 723 patients diagnosed with MPNs who were admitted to Institute of Hematology & Blood Diseases Hospital, Chinese Academy of Medical Sciences & Peking Union Medical College between April 2021 and June 2023. The association between NFE2 gene mutations and clinical features and molecular characteristics of MPNs patients were retrospectively analyzed.Results:Among 723 patients with MPNs, NFE2 gene mutations were found in 41 cases (5.7%) . NFE2 gene mutations were predominantly frameshift mutations (44.4%) , followed by nonsense mutations (33.3%) . The median number of mutations in patients with NFE2 gene mutations (4 [2,5]) was higher compared to the group without NFE2 gene mutations (2, [1,3]) ( P<0.001) . NFE2 gene mutations frequently co-occurred with mutations in MPL, ATM, PPM1D, and TET1. NFE2 gene mutations were mostly sub-clonal events, with 80.5% occurring after MPNs driver mutations (JAK2, CALR, or MPL) . NFE2 mutations were correlated with older age [median age: 60 (54, 67) years vs 54 (41, 63) years, P=0.001]. Patients with NFE2 gene mutations had a higher incidence of pre-diagnosis thrombosis (39.0% vs 22.0%, P=0.012) and pre-diagnosis arterial thrombosis (36.6% vs 20.4%, P=0.014) . Using a logistic regression analysis model adjusting for age and comorbidities (including chronic infections, malignancies, and autoimmune diseases) , NFE2 gene mutation was identified as an independent determinant of elevated tumor necrosis factor-alpha (TNF-α) ( OR=2.747, 95% CI: 1.143-6.605, P=0.024) , interferon-gamma (IFN-γ) ( OR=2.689, 95% CI: 1.191-6.076, P=0.017) , IL-10 ( OR=3.219, 95% CI: 1.343-7.717, P=0.009) , IL-12P70 ( OR=3.397, 95% CI:1.003-11.508, P=0.049) , IL-17 ( OR=2.284, 95% CI: 1.017-5.127, P=0.045) . In polycythaemia vera (PV) patients with the NFE2 gene mutation, the proportion of those classified as high-risk is notably higher in both the IWG-PV and mutation-enhanced international prognostic systems for PV (MIPSS-PV) (66.7% vs 25.3% for IWG-PV, P=0.033; 22.2% vs 2.0% for MIPSS-PV, P=0.013) . Similarly, for essential thrombocythaemia (ET) patients, the proportion in the high-risk group of the mutation-enhanced international prognostic systems for ET (MIPSS-ET) is significantly higher (15.4% vs 6.1%, P=0.021) . No statistically significant differences were observed in overall survival or cumulative incidence of thrombosis between NFE2-mutated (38 cases) and non-mutated MPNs patients (671 cases, P>0.05) . Conclusion:NFE2 gene mutations in MPNs were predominantly frameshift mutations. NFE2 gene mutations were correlated with older age, elevated levels of several inflammatory factors (including TNF-α、IFN-γ、IL-10、IL-12P70、IL-17) , and they mostly occurred in late-stage of MPNs.

Objective:To investigate the clinical, laboratory, and prognostic features of myelodysplastic neoplasm (MDS) patients harboring acute myeloid leukemia (AML) -like mutations.Methods:We retrospectively analyzed clinical, molecular, and outcome data from 1 464 adults with primary MDS diagnosed at the Institute of Hematology and Blood Diseases Hospital from August 2016 to June 2024.Results:AML-like mutations were detected in 64 patients (4.4% ). Compared with patients without AML-like mutations, those with AML-like mutations were younger [median 50 ( IQR 39–60) vs 56 (45, 65) years; P=0.001], more often female (51.6% vs 35.4% ; P=0.009), had higher bone marrow blast percentage [6.5% (3.0%, 10.5% ) vs 2.5% (1.0%, 7.0% ) ; P<0.001], a higher rate of normal karyotype (75.0% vs 48.1% ; P<0.001), and lower hemoglobin levels [73 (67, 82) g/L vs 80 (66, 98) g/L; P=0.006]. The AML-like group had a higher number of gene mutations than the non-AML-like group [3 ( IQR 2–4) vs 2 (1, 3) ; P<0.001). It was enriched for mutations in NPM1, DNMT3A, WT1, PTPN11, NRAS, BCOR, FLT3, CEBPA, and MYC (all P<0.05) and had lower rates of U2AF1, ASXL1, and TP53 mutations (all P<0.05). Overall survival (OS) did not differ between groups ( P=0.730) ; however, the AML-like group had significantly shorter leukemia-free survival (LFS) [19 months (95% CI: 13–25) vs 46 months (95% CI: 38–54) ; P=0.012] and a higher 2-year cumulative incidence of AML transformation [ (41.7±9.1) % vs (10.4±1.1) % ; P<0.001]. Within the AML-like group, OS, LFS, and cumulative incidence of AML transformation did not differ between patients with low blasts and those with excess blasts (IB). Multivariable Cox regression identified age ≥60 years and PTPN11 mutations as independent adverse prognostic factors for OS, while DNMT3A, PTPN11, and FLT3 mutations independently predicted leukemic transformation. Conclusions:MDS patients harboring AML-like mutations exhibit distinct clinical and molecular features and a higher risk of progression to AML.

To enhance hospital operational management capability,the sample hospital initiated a financial talent development program aligned with current development needs and policy directions.This program established a talent development framework encompassing hierarchical training,employment mechanisms,and digital empowerment,forming a three-tier financial talent echelon comprising senior,intermediate,and junior professionals.It effectively facilitated the transformation of financial functions toward"strategic support,business service,risk prevention and control,and value creation".It analyzes the hospital's practical experience in financial talent development,aiming to offer insights for financial workforce development in public hospitals.These efforts synergize with the modernization of governance systems and capabilities in health economics,driving high-quality development in public healthcare institutions.

Objective:To investigate the current status of subjective well-being among stroke patients, and to explore the pathways and effects of influencing factors using structural equation model, so as to provide reference for improving subjective well-being among stroke patients.Methods:From July to November 2024, the stroke patients admitted to the First Affiliated Hospital of Bengbu Medical University, the Second Affiliated Hospital of Bengbu Medical University, Hefei First People′s Hospital were selected by convenience sampling method. A cross-sectional survey was conducted using a general demographic questionnaire, General Well-Being Scale, Cognitive Reserve Index questionnaire, Social Support Rating Scale, Stroke Symptom Cluster Scale, and FRAIL Scale, and AMOS 26.0 was used to analyse the pathways and effects of influencing factors of subjective well-being.Results:A total of 435 questionnaires were collected, 410 were valid.Among 410 cases, 266 case were males, 144 were females, with an age of (65.96 ± 12.15) years. The subjective well-being scores of stroke patients were (72.58 ± 11.66) points. Cognitive reserve and social support were positively correlated with subjective well-being ( r = 0.517, 0.554, both P<0.01), while symptom burden and frailty were negatively correlated with subjective well-being ( r = -0.687, -0.670, both P<0.01). Path analysis showed that symptom burden, frailty, cognitive reserve, and social support had a direct impact on subjective well-being (path coefficients were -0.500, -0.266, 0.148, and 0.144, respectively, all P<0.05), while cognitive reserve, social support, and symptom burden had an indirect impact on subjective well-being (path coefficients were 0.287, 0.249, and 0.108, respectively, all P<0.05). Conclusions:The subjective well-being of stroke patients is influenced by multiple factors, with symptom burden being an important factor affecting subjective well-being. Intervention strategies such as improving cognitive reserve, strengthening social support systems, and preventing frailty can improve the subjective well-being of patients.
