Objective To explore the effect and mechanism of uric acid(UA)in regulating the larval growth and development of Drosophila melanogaster.Methods A total of 1350 newly hatched first-instar larvae of wild-type Drosophila melanogaster(W11 18)were collected,and the Drosophila melanogaster model of hyperurice-mia was constructed with a high purine diet.The larvae were assigned into three groups(n=150):control(stand-ard corn meal medium),low-dose adenine(corn meal medium containing 0.05%adenine),and high-dose ad-enine(corn meal medium containing 0.10%adenine),and two parallel groups were set up.The growth and de-velopment of larvae in each group was observed,and the UA and hormone levels were measured.In addition,the expression levels of genes involved in growth and development were determined.Results Compared with the con-trol group,the low-and high-dose adenine groups showed elevated UA levels(both P<0.001)and prolonged de-velopmental period(P=0.024,P<0.001).The high-dose adenine group showed decreased survival rate,pupa-tion rate,and eclosion rate and elevated levels of juvenile hormone(JH)and 20-hydroxyecdysone(20E)(all P<0.001).The PCR results showed that compared with the control group,high-dose adenine upregulated the mRNA levels of reactive oxygen species(ROS),forkhead box O(FOXO),and mammalian target of rapamycin(mTOR)while downregulating the mRNA levels of Sestrin,mTOR complex 1(mTORC1),and AMP-activated protein kinase(all P<0.001).Conclusion High concentrations of UA may promote the expression of ROS/FOXO/mTORC1/mTOR signaling pathway by regulating the levels of JH and 20E,thereby inhibiting the larval growth and development of Drosophila melanogaster.

Objective:To study the relationship between hemoglobin glycation index (HGI) and blood lipid indices such as low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C), non-high-density lipoprotein cholesterol (non-HDL-C), and plasma atherogenic index (AIP).Methods:This cross-sectional study included 16 049 participants from the Beijing Apple Garden community between December 2011 and August 2012. The subjects were divided into three groups based on the HGI quartile: low ( n=5 388), medium ( n=5 249), and high ( n=5 412). The differences in blood lipid indicators between different HGI groups were compared and multivariate logistic regression model was established to analyze the association between HGI and dyslipidemia. And multivariate logistic regression model was established to analyze the relationship between HGI and blood lipid indicators in different glucose metabolism populations. Results:There were 16 049 participants in all (mean age: 56 years), including 10 452 women (65.1%). They were classified into normal glucose tolerance (9 093 cases), prediabetes (4 524 cases), and diabetes (2 432 cases) based on glucose tolerance status. In the general population, with the increase of HGI, LDL-C, non-HDL-C, and AIP gradually increased (all P values for trends were <0.05), and the proportion of abnormalities increased significantly ( χ2=101.40, 42.91, 39.80; all P<0.001). A multivariate logistic regression model was established, which suggested a significant correlation between HGI and LDL-C, non-HDL-C, and AIP (all P<0.05), after adjusting for factors such as age, sex, fasting blood glucose, hypertension, body mass index, smoking, and alcohol consumption. In the overall population, normal glucose tolerance group, and diabetes group, HGI had the highest correlation with non-HDL-C ( OR values of 1.325, 1.678, and 1.274, respectively); in the prediabetes group, HGI had a higher correlation with LDL-C ( OR value: 1.510); and in different glucose metabolism groups, AIP and HGI were both correlated ( OR: 1.208-1.250), but not superior to non-HDL-C and LDL-C. Conclusion:HGI was closely related to LDL-C, non HDL-C, and AIP in the entire population and people with different glucose metabolism, suggesting that HGI may be a predictor of atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease.

Objective:To analyze the correlation between fatty liver index (FLI) and myocardial remodeling.Methods:For cross-sectional study, cluster sampling was used to conduct a follow-up study of “Risk evaluation of cancers in Chinese diabetic individuals: A longitudinal (REACTION) study” among communities of Gucheng and Pingguoyuan of Beijing from April 2015 to September 2015. According to the inclusion and exclusion criteria, 8 848 participants were selected. Biochemical indicators such as body mass index, waist circumference, triglycerides, and γ-glutamyl transpeptidase were detected to calculate the FLI. The correlation between FLI and myocardial remodeling was analyzed. Interventricular septal thickness (IVS), left atrial diameter (LAD), left ventricular end diastolic diameter (LVEDD), and the presence of diastolic dysfunction were measured by color doppler ultrasound. The participants were divided into Q1 group (FLI<30, 4 529 cases), Q2 group (30≤FLI<60, 2 762 cases), and Q3 group (FLI≥60, 1 557 cases) based on FLI levels. Single factor analysis of variance was used for inter-group comparison, logistic regression analysis was used to analyze the correlation between FLI and myocardial remodeling.Results:A total of 8 848 subjects were selected for the study (3 110 male and 5 738 female, mean age: 59.96 years). The IVS of Q1, Q2, and Q3 groups were (9.35±1.08), (9.73±1.22), and (10.07±1.31) mm, respectively. The LAD were (30.94±3.90), (33.37±4.12), and (34.98±4.47) mm, respectively. The LVEDD were (42.51±5.05), (44.43±5.10), and (46.06±5.52) mm, respectively. All increased with the increase of FLI (all P<0.001). FLI was an independent risk factor for IVS thickening, LAD increase, LVEDD increase, and diastolic function decrease. The respective risks for IVS thickening, LAD increase, LVEDD increase, and diastolic function decrease in a population with intermediate and higher FLI levels was 1.62 times (95% CI 1.39-1.89) and 2.53 times (95% CI 2.13-3.00); 2.71 times (95% CI 2.39-3.06) and 5.00 times (95% CI 4.12-6.08); 2.36 times (95% CI 1.85-3.00) and 4.33 times (95% CI 3.33-5.62); and 1.90 times (95% CI 1.63-2.19) and 1.95 times (95% CI 1.60-2.37) than those with lower FLI levels. Conclusion:There is a certain relevance between FLI and myocardial remodeling.

Objective:To analyze the correlation between fatty liver index (FLI) and the outcomes of individuals with high normal blood pressure.Methods:In this retrospective cohort study, data from the follow-up population of the Beijing branch of the Risk Evaluation of Cancers in Chinese Diabetic Individuals: A Longitudinal (REACTION) study conducted from December 2011 to August 2012 were selected. Obtain indicators such as height, weight, waist circumference, fasting blood glucose, 2-h postprandial blood glucose, triglycerides, high-density lipoprotein cholesterol, and glutamyl transpeptidase were measured, and the FLI was calculated. The population with high normal blood pressure was divided into the FLI<30 group (1 822 cases); 30≤FLI<60 group (1 026 cases); and FLI≥60 group (473 cases) based on FLI levels. The blood pressure outcome data from the follow-up survey of this population from April 2015 to September 2015 were collected. Single factor analysis of variance was used for intergroup comparison, and logistic regression was used to analyze the correlation between FLI and the outcome of high normal blood pressure in the population.Results:The FLI was an independent influencing factor for their conversion to normal blood pressure (all P<0.01). Among all observed populations, the likelihood of conversion to normal blood pressure in the 30≤FLI<60 group and FLI≥60 group was 0.63 (95% CI 0.51-0.78) and 0.61 (95% CI 0.45-0.82) of the FLI<30 group, respectively. In the population of 40≤age<60 years, this likelihood was 0.60 (95% CI 0.47-0.76) and 0.57 (95% CI 0.41-0.79), respectively. FLI is not an independent influencing factor for the conversion to normal blood pressure in individuals aged over 60 years ( P=0.161). FLI is an independent risk factor for hypertension (all P<0.05). Among all observed populations and population of 40≤age<60 years and age>60 years, the risk of hypertension in the 30≤FLI<60 group and FLI≥60 group was 1.49 times (95% CI 1.23-1.80) and 1.54 times (95% CI 1.19-1.98); 1.41 times (95% CI 1.13-1.75) and 1.38 times (95% CI 1.04-1.83); and 1.75 times (95% CI 1.22-2.53) and 2.10 times (95% CI 1.24-3.58) of the FLI<30 group, respectively. Conclusions:There is a correlation between FLI levels and future outcomes of individuals with normal high blood pressure. Although people with higher FLI are more likely to develop hypertension, those with higher FLI are also less likely to develop normal blood pressure in the 40≤age<60-year group.

Objective:To explore the clinical effectiveness of a self-designed robot reduction system for femoral intertrochanteric fractures.Methods:A retrospective study was conducted to analyze the 57 patients with intertrochanteric fracture who had been treated at Department of Orthopedics, The Fourth Affiliated Central Hospital of Tianjin Medical University from June 2022 to February 2023. The patients were divided into a robot group (using the self-designed robot reduction system to assist intramedullary nailing) and a traction bed group (using a traction bed to assist intramedullary nailing) based on their fracture reduction method. The robot group: 31 patients, 11 males and 20 females, with an age of (78.7±9.3) years; 16 left and 15 right sides; 17 cases of type 31-A1, 12 cases of type 31-A2 and 2 cases of type 31-A3 by the AO/OTA classification. The traction bed group: 26 patients, 12 males and 14 females, with an age of (78.7±7.7) years; 13 left and 13 right sides; 16 cases of type 31-A1, 9 cases of type 31-A2 and 1 cases of type 31-A3 by the AO/OTA classification. The 2 groups were compared in terms of reduction and operation time, intraoperative blood loss, fluoroscopy frequency, reduction quality, and VAS and Harris score at preoperation, 1 week and 6 months postoperation.Results:The 2 groups were comparable due to insignificant differences in their preoperative general data ( P>0.05). The robot group was significantly better than the traction bed group in reduction time [(4.4±2.2) min versus (9.4±3.2) min], operation time [(29.0±13.5) min versus (49.3±13.3) min], intraoperative blood loss [(76.5±30.5) mL versus (115.0±38.4) mL], fluoroscopy frequency [(10.2±2.6) times versus (14.8±3.2) times], and good/excellent rate of reduction [80.6% (25/31) versus 50.0% (13/26)] ( P<0.05). All patients were followed up for (6.8±0.3) months. Respectively, the VAS scores at preoperation and 6 months postoperation was (6.2±1.3) and (2.4±0.8) points for the robot group, and (6.3±1.3) and (2.7±0.8) points for the traction bed group, showing no statistically significant differences between the 2 groups ( P>0.05). However, the VAS score was (3.3±1.2) points for the robotic group and (4.8±1.5) points for the traction bed group at 1 week postoperation, showing a statistically significant difference between the 2 groups ( P<0.001). Respectively, the Harris scores at preoperation and 6 months postoperation were (35.3±3.0) and (88.7±3.4) points for the robot group, and (35.6±2.9) and (87.2±3.5) points for the traction bed group, showing no statistically significant differences between the 2 groups ( P>0.05). However, the Harris score was (57.3±3.7) points for the robotic group and (46.7±2.8) points for the traction bed group at 1 week postoperation, showing a statistically significant difference between the 2 groups ( P<0.05). The patient satisfaction rates in the robot and traction bed groups were 96.8% (30/31) and 92.3% (24/26), respectively, showing no statistically significant difference ( P>0.05). Conclusion:Our self-designed robot reduction for femoral intertrochanteric fractures can effectively shorten reduction and operation time, reduce bleeding and fluoroscopy frequency, and enhance anatomical reduction.
