Objective To explore the dynamic changes of tracheal stem cells during tracheal regeneration after injury induced by fluorouracil(5-FU) in rats. Methods Extracorporeal tracheal injury(Wistar rats) was induced by 5-FU.ABCG2 expression in tracheal epithelium during the process of regeneration was analyzed by indirect immunofluorescence and Western blotting. Results 1.After treatment with 5-FU for 12 hours,the tracheal epithelium shed and there were ABCG2 positive cells among residual cells in G-0.Three hours after the removal of 5-FU,the tracheal rings were covered with flattened epithelial cells. ABCG2 positive cells increased slightly.Six-nine hours after the removal of 5FU,the epithelial cells changed into cuboidal,correspondingly,the ABCG2 positive cells increased obviously;At 24 hours after the removal of 5-FU,most of the epithelial cells were cuboidal and merged into pieces,but the ABCG2 positive cells decreased obviously;Until 48 hours after the removal of 5-FU,only a few positive cells could be seen with the pseudostratified mucociliary epithelium restored similar to its original mode.There were no detectable ABCG2 positive cells in normal tracheal epithelium.2.Western blotting analysis showed that there were different ABCG2 levels at different times after the removal of 5-FU which in accordance with the change of immunofluorescene.ABCG2 was minimally detected after treatment with 5-FU for 12 hours,reaching a maximal level at 6 hours after the removal of 5-FU,and then decreased over time.Until 48 hours after the removal of 5-FU,very low ABCG2 level was detected.Conclusion The expression of ABCG2 is correlated to the number of tracheal stem cells,suggesting that ABCG2 may serve as a marker for isolating stem cells from tracheal epithelium.

Objective:To explore the value of predicting new-onset heart failure events in patients with hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM) using clinical and cardiac magnetic resonance (CMR) features based on machine learning algorithms.Methods:The study was a retrospective cohort study. Patients with a confirmed diagnosis of HCM who underwent CMR examinations at Beijing Anzhen Hospital from May 2017 to March 2021 were selected and randomly divided into the training set and the validation set in a ratio of 7∶3. Clinical data and CMR parameters (including conventional parameters and radiomics features) were collected. The endpoint events were heart failure hospitalization and heart failure death, with follow-up ending in January 2023. Features with high stability and P value<0.05 in univariate Cox regression analysis were selected. Subsequently, three machine learning algorithms—random forest, decision tree, and XGBoost—were used to build heart failure event prediction models in the training set. The model performance was then evaluated using the independent validation set, with the performance assessed based on the concordance index. Results:A total of 462 patients were included, with a median age of 51 (39, 62) years, of whom 332 (71.9%) were male. There were 323 patients in the training set and 139 in the validation set. The median follow-up time was 42 (28, 52) months. A total of 44 patients (9.5% (44/462)) experienced endpoint events (8 cases of heart failure death and 36 cases of heart failure hospitalization), with 31 events in the training set and 13 in the validation set. Univariate Cox regression analysis identified 39 radiomic features, 4 conventional CMR parameters (left ventricular end-diastolic volume index, left ventricular end-systolic volume index, left ventricular ejection fraction, and late gadolinium enhancement ratio), and 1 clinical feature (history of non-sustained ventricular tachycardia) that could be included in the machine learning model. In the prediction models built with the training set, the concordance indices for the random forest, decision tree, and XGBoost models were 0.966 (95% CI 0.813-0.995), 0.956 (95% CI 0.796-0.992), and 0.973 (95% CI 0.823-0.996), respectively. In the validation set, the concordance indices for the random forest, decision tree, and XGBoost models were 0.854 (95% CI 0.557-0.964), 0.706 (95% CI 0.399-0.896), and 0.703 (95%CI 0.408-0.890), respectively. Conclusion:Integrating clinical and CMR features of HCM patients through machine learning aids in predicting heart failure events, with the random forest model showing superior performance.
6.Association between the ratio of dietary vitamin A to body weight and hypertension in children
Chinese Journal of School Health 2024;45(2):267-272
Objective:
To explore the relationship between the ratio of dietary vitamin A (VitA) to body weight and hypertension among children, so as to provide a reference for blood pressure control through dietary nutritional interventions and childhood hypertension prevention.
Methods:
Utilizing the baseline survey and followup sample data from the Healthy Children Cohort established in urban and rural areas of Chongqing from 2014 to 2019, structured quantitative dietary questionnaire and selfdesigned questionnaire were used to investigate the information of dietary intake and socioeconomic characteristics of 15 279 children, as well as blood pressure, height, weight measurement. The ratio of dietary VitA to body weight was divided into four groups based on quartiles [≤P25(Q1), >P25~P50(Q2), >P50~P75(Q3), >P75(Q4)]. Generalized linear regression models and Logistic regression models were used to analyze the correlation between ratio of dietary VitA to body weight with blood pressure levels and prevalence of hypertension.
Results:
The results of the 2014 baseline survey indicated that, after adjusting for confounding factors such as demographic indicators and nutritional intake, significant differences were observed in systolic blood pressure (SBP), diastolic blood pressure (DBP), and mean arterial pressure (MAP) among different groups categorized by the ratio of dietary VitA to body weight (F=157.57, 44.71, 95.92, P<0.01). The baseline ratio of dietary VitA to body weight in children exhibited a negative correlation with DBP, SBP and MAP at baseline and in 2019[baseline: β(95%CI)=-0.65(-0.89--0.42), -0.22(-0.42--0.01), -0.36(-0.56--0.16); 2019: β(95%CI)=-0.77(-1.34--0.19), -0.62(-1.21--0.02), -0.77(-1.34--0.19), P<0.05]. Compared to Q1 group, the risk of hypertension decreased among children in Q4 at baseline and followup in 2019 [OR(95%CI)=0.63(0.49-0.81), 0.18(0.08-0.42), P<0.01].
Conclusions
The ratio of dietary VitA to body weight is significantly negatively correlated with blood pressure levels among children, and dietary VitA deficiency is an independent risk factor for hypertension among children. Measures should be taken to actively adjust childrens dietary nutrition and reduce the risk of childhood hypertension.

Objective:To optimize the Manchester needs tool for injured children (MANTIC) scale , and evaluate its reliability and validity among injured children. Methods:The MANTIC scale was optimized through Delphi expert consultation and pre-tests. From March 2023 to June 2023 , a total of 317 injured children admitted in 7 level A tertiary hospitals in Zhejiang and Shandong provinces and their families were surveyed with general data, optimized MANTIC scale, and EuroQol 5-dimension health questionnaire for youth (EQ-5D-Y). Item analysis was conducted on the data of the 317 patients collected with optimized MANTIC scale through the test for homogeneity and value-based decision-making method and the content validity test of the scale was evaluated with item-level content validity index (I-CVI) and scale-level content validity index (S-CVI). It was evaluated with KMO test values and Bartlett′s test of sphericity to determine whether the scale was suitable for exploratory factors. The number of common factors was determined based on the K1 criterion and scree plot to further obtain the structural validity of the scale of the item load value. The correlation validity of the scale was evaluated with the correlation coefficient of the optimized MANTIC scale and EQ-5D-Y. The reliability of the scale was tested with Cronbach alpha coefficient and Guttman split-half reliability coefficient. Results:A total of 332 questionnaires were distributed, among which 317 valid ones were collected, with a response rate of 95.6%. The test of homogeneity in the item analysis showed that the correlation coefficient between each item and the total score of the scale was 0.40-0.80. The results of the value-based decision-making method showed that the critical ratio of high-and low-scored groups was 6.08-28.01. The quality of all the items met the retention requirements so that the reliability and validity tests could be continued. Validity test found that I-CVI was 0.83-1.00, consistent S-CVI was 0.83, and mean S-CVI was 0.95. In structural validity analysis, the KMO value was 0.96, and the Chi-square value of Bartlett′s test of sphericity was 10755.76 ( P<0.01). A total of 9 common factors were extracted with the K1 criterion (eigen value>1), and the scree plot indicated 9 common factors with a cumulative variance contribution rate of 73.46%. Factor extraction and rotation showed that the load value of each item of the scale ranged from 0.589 to 0.874. The correlation coefficient of the optimized MANTIC scale and EQ-5D-Y was r= 0.55 ( P<0.01).Reliability test showed that the Cronbach alpha coefficient of the total scale and all dimensions was 0.96 and 0.77-0.98, and the Guttman split-half reliability coefficient was 0.76 and 0.73-0.98. Conclusion:The optimized MANTIC scale can attain good reliability, validity, consistency and stability, and can reflect the concept to be expressed and the content to be evaluated, indicating that it can be used to evaluate the injury rehabilitation needs of injured children and their families throughout the entire treatment process.
