OBJECTIVE To optimize the extraction process of flavonoids from Potentilla discolor .METHODS Deep eutectic solvents (DESs) were used as the extraction solvent to prepare test sample solutions. The contents of rutin, quercitrin, and kaempferol were determined by ultra-performance liquid chromatography. The analytic hierarchy process combined with the criteria importance through intercriteria correlation weighting method was employed to assign comprehensive weights to the contents of the three flavonoids, and calculate the comprehensive score. The optimal DESs were screened based on the comprehensive score.Mean while, using the comprehensive score as the response variable and the liquid-to-solid ratio, ultrasonic time, and urltrasonic temperature as the influencing factors, the extraction technology of flavonoids from P.discolor was optimized by Box-Behnken response surface methodology and subsequently validated.RESULTS The comprehensive weight coefficients of rutin, quercitrin, and kaempferol were 0.646 7, 0.207 5, and 0.145 8, respectively. The optimal DESs were choline chloride-lactic acid (molar ratio 1∶4) with a water content of 40%. The optimal extraction conditions were determined as follows: liquid-to-solid ratio of 25∶1, ultrasonic time of 40 min, and ultrasonic temperature of 50 ℃. The validation results showed that the average comprehensive score of three batches of samples was 99.28, with an RSD of 0.54% ( n =3).CONCLUSIONS The optimal extraction technology of flavonoids from P. discolor based on DESs obtained in this study was stable and feasible.

Objective:
To explore the association between single nucleotide polymorphism(SNP) in the arachidonate 15-lipoxygenase(ALOX15) gene and Helicobacter pylori(H. pylori) infection as well as the risk of non-cardia gastric cancer in Baotou Han population, and to provide experimental evidence and data support for the screening of susceptible population for non-cardia gastric cancer.
Methods:
A total of 458 cases with non-cardia gastric cancer and 460 healthy examination people were collected. The 14C urea breath test(UBT) and enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay(ELISA) were used to detect H. pylori infection in the 460 healthy individuals. The genotypes of ALOX15 rs2619112, rs2619118, rs2664593, rs7220870 were detected by polymerase chain reaction-restriction fragment length polymorphism, and the association of SNP with H. pylori infection as well as the risk of non-cardia gastric cancer was statistically analyzed.
Results:
The positive rate of H. pylori infection was 42.4%. ALOX15 rs2619112, rs2619118, rs2664593, and rs7220870 had no association with H. pylori infection. ALOX15 rs2619112, rs2664593, and rs7220870 were not associated with the risk of non-cardia gastric cancer. Compared with the carriers of(CC + CT) genotype, the carriers of rs2619118 TT genotype had an increased onset risk of non-cardia gastric cancer [OR(95%CI)=1.512(1.110-2.060)]. The haplotype ACCC constructed by ALOX15 rs2619112, rs2619118, rs2664593, and rs7220870 could reduce the onset risk of non-cardia gastric cancer. The second-order interaction of ALOX15 rs2619112 and rs2619118 was associated with the risk of non-cardia gastric cancer ( P < 0. 05 ) .
Conclusion
ALOX15 rs2619112 , rs2619118 , rs2664593 , rs7220870 may not play a major role in H. pylori infection. ALOX15 rs2619118 TT genotype is a risk factor for the development of non⁃cardia gastric cancer. The haplotype ACCC constructed by ALOX15 rs2619112 , rs2619118 , rs2664593 , and rs7220870 reduces the onset risk of non⁃cardia gastric cancer. The interaction of ALOX15 rs2619112 and rs2619118 has a synergistic effect in the development of non⁃cardia gastric cancer.

This paper explores the impacts of accelerated rehabilitation protocols following anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction(ACLR)on bone tunnel enlargement(BTE).While accelerated rehabilitation can shorten the recovery time and improve the knee function,it may increase the risk of BTE.In the early rehabilitation phase after ACLR,excessive early weight-bearing and rapid progression of knee flexion angles should be avoided,along with the proper use of braces.Continuous passive motion is not recommended in the early phase post-ACLR to prevent potential effects on BTE.Further research is needed to investigate the mechanisms of BTE and develop more effective rehabilitation strategies.This will help to select appropriate rehabilitation protocols for patients and balance functional recovery with the risk of BTE,thereby reducing the revision rate and improving postoperative outcomes.

Objective:
To analyze the monitoring results of key occupational hazard factors in workplaces across different industries in Aba Tibetan and Qiang Autonomous Prefecture (Aba Prefecture), Sichuan Province, so as to provide the basis for optimizing occupational disease prevention and control measures.
Methods:
Data of key occupational hazard factors in workplaces in Aba Prefecture from 2022 to 2024 were collected through the Workplace Occupational Hazard Monitoring System. Descriptive analyses were conducted on the over-standard rates of occupational hazard factors, completion rates of occupational health examinations, and participation rates in occupational health training.
Results:
From 2022 to 2024, 165 enterprise-times in Aba Prefecture were monitored, with 112 enterprise-times exceeding the standards, the over-standard rate of enterprises was 67.88%. A total of 1 005 worksite positions were monitored, with 302 exceeding the standards, the over-standard rate of worksite positions was 30.05%. The over-standard rates of enterprises and worksite positions showed upward trends from 2022 to 2024 (both P<0.05). The over-standard rates of enterprises in the ferrous metal mining and dressing industry and non-ferrous metal mining and dressing industry were both 100%. The top three over-standard rates of worksite positions were in the non-metallic mining and dressing industry, ferrous metal mining and dressing industry, and non-ferrous metal mining and dressing industry, at 62.50%, 56.00%, and 53.13%, respectively. Worksite positions exposed to silica dust, noise, and coal dust had relatively high over-standard rates, at 17.00%, 10.04%, and 7.27%, respectively. The actual numbers of physical examinations for personnel at worksite positions with dust, chemical factors, and physical factors were 9 398, 2 469, and 10 928 person-times, respectively, with completion rates of 95.78%, 81.03%, and 100.00%, respectively. The actual number of re-examinations were 428, 129, and 1 121 person-times, respectively, with re-examination rates of 64.26%, 27.27%, and 81.53%, respectively. Among the monitored enterprises, 102 enterprise-times participated in training for persons in charge, with a participation rate of 61.82%; 108 enterprise-times participated in training for occupational health management personnel, with a participation rate of 65.45%; and 10 489 person-times of workers exposed to hazards participated in occupational health training for workers, with a participation rate of 86.24%.
Conclusions
The over-standard rate of key occupational hazards factors in workplaces in Aba Prefecture was relatively high. The completion rate of occupational health examinations was good, but the re-examination rate was low. It is recommended to focus on strengthening the prevention and control of occupational hazard factors in the mining and dressing industry and promoting the effective implementation of occupational health examinations and occupational health training.

Abstract
Ring finger protein 183(RNF183) is an E3 ubiquitin ligase that catalyzes the covalent attachment of ubiquitin molecules to substrate proteins. RNF183 is expressed in tissues such as kidney and testis, and it is mainly localized to the endoplasmic reticulum, Golgi apparatus, and lysosomes in cells. As one of the components of the endoplasmic reticulum membrane, it participates in the endoplasmic reticulum stress-responsive pathway that affects cellular and protein ubiquitination. In recent years, the study of E3 ubiquitin ligase member-RNF183 with various diseases such as colorectal cancer, endometrial cancer and bladder cancer has gradually increased. In this review, the role of RNF183 in colorectal cancer, inflammatory bowel disease and other diseases, as well as biological functions such as endoplasmic reticulum stress are summarized, aiming to provide reference ideas for the study of related diseases.

Objective:To discuss the effect of erythritol on glucose and lipid metabolism in the body,and to clarify the mechanism of erythritol affecting liver metabolism based on metabonomics.Methods:The male ICR mice were randomly divided into normal group,sucrose group(2%sucrose),low dose of erythritol(1%erythritol)group,medium dose of erythritol(2%erythritol)group,and high dose of erythritol(4%erythritol)group,with 10 mice in each group.The corresponding concentrations of sucrose and erythritol solutions were prepared and placed in water bottles,and the mice were allowed to drink and eat freely for 12 consecutive weeks;the body mass,food intakes,and water intakes of the mice in various groups were measured.Commercial kits were used to detect the serum triglyceride(TG),total cholesterol(TC),and blood glucose levels of the mice in various groups;the liver indexes of the mice were calculated.Ultra performance liquid chromatography-orbitrap exactive mass spectrometry(UPLC-OE-MS)non-targeted metabonomics was used to detect the liver metabolites of the mice normal group and high dose of erythritol group;bioinformatics analysis was used to screen the differential liver metabolites between the two groups with variable importance in projection(VIP)>1 and adjusted P<0.05;Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes(KEGG)signaling pathway enrichment analysis were performed to investigate the functional roles of the differential liver metabolites.Results:Compared with normal group,there were no significant differences in the body mass,food intake,liver index,and blood lipid levels of the mice in various groups(P>0.05);compared with normal group,the blood glucose level of the mice in high dose of erythritol group was significantly increased(P<0.01).The metabonomics analysis of the liver tissues of the mice in two groups identified 1 144 metabolites,mainly including lipids and lipid-like molecules(17.39%),organic acids and derivatives(10.87%),organic heterocyclic compounds(5.80%),and organic oxygen compounds(5.07%).Compared with normal group,there were 138 differential liver metabolites in the mice in high dose of erythritol group,among which 112 metabolites were up-regulated and 26 metabolites were down-regulated.The KEGG signal pathway enrichment analysis results showed that the differential metabolites were mainly enriched in metabolism,steroid hormone biosynthesis,cortisol synthesis and metabolism,and Cushing's syndrome pathways;the further topological analysis of the metabolic pathways results showed that the differential metabolites were mainly involved in sphingolipid metabolism,tricarboxylic acid cycle,riboflavin metabolism,steroid hormone biosynthesis,and purine metabolism signal pathways.Conclusion:Long-term intake of high dose of erythritol can increase the blood glucose level in the mice,and the mechanism may be that it affects the tricarboxylic acid cycle by interfering with riboflavin metabolism and interferes with sphingolipid metabolism,leading to impairment of the blood glucose control system.
