Objective To identify renal function and other readily accessible indicators influencing the prognosis of renal cell carcinoma (RCC) patients after nephrectomy, and to construct a prognostic prediction model based on them. Methods The clinical and pathological data of 624 RCC patients undergoing radical or partial nephrectomy in the First Hospital of Shanxi Medical University during Jan. 2013 and Dec. 2021 were retrospectively analyzed. The independent prognostic factors affecting postoperative overall survival (OS) were identified with LASSO algorithm combined with Cox regression analysis. Based on these factors, a nomogram was constructed to predict the 1-, 3-, and 5-year survival rates. The performance of the model was evaluated using the concordance index (C-index), time-dependent receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curves and the area under the curve (AUC), calibration plots, and decision curve analysis (DCA). Finally, the cutoff value of the nomogram was calculated to stratify patients into risk groups. Kaplan-Meier survival analysis with log-rank testing was performed to compare outcomes between the risk groups. Results Nine independent prognostic factors were identified, including age, smoking history, diabetes mellitus history, maximum tumor diameter, tumor subtype, N stage, Fuhrman grade, preoperative serum creatinine and cystatin C (P＜0.05). The nomogram achieved a C-index of 0.891, with time-dependent AUC of 0.920, 0.903, and 0.867 for 1-, 3-, and 5-year OS, respectively. Calibration curves showed excellent agreement with actual observations, and DCA demonstrated significant clinical net benefits across a wide threshold probability range. Using a cutoff score of 110.4, Kaplan-Meier analysis revealed statistically significant survival differences between risk groups (P＜0.001). Conclusion The proposed nomogram, incorporating renal function and other readily accessible clinical indicators, exhibits strong predictive accuracy for postoperative survival in RCC patients and may serve as a practical tool for individualized clinical decision-making.

BACKGROUND:miRNAs expression has been reported to be associated with hepatic and renal fibrosis,and dermal fibrogenesis. Moreover,a targeted regulatory relationship between miR-192-5p and epidermal regulators has been demonstrated in gouty arthritis.OBJECTIVE:To investigate the expression and regulatory role of miR-192-5p in hypertrophic scar and to verify whether there is a targeted regulatory relationship between miR-192-5p and epidermal regulators. METHODS:(1) Six cases of hypertrophic scar tissue and six cases of normal skin tissue were collected from the First Affiliated Hospital of Xinjiang Medical University. And miR-192-5p and epidermal regulator mRNA expression were detected by qRT-PCR. (2) The primary hypertrophic scar fibroblasts were obtained using tissue explant method and cultured to 3-6 generations for subsequent experiments. There were three groups in the experiment:negative control group,miR-192-5p mimic group and miR-192-5p inhibitor group. The latter two groups were transfected with the corresponding sequences. Cell proliferation viability was detected by the cell counting kit-8 assay and EdU kit;and the migration ability was detected by the cell scratch test. Cell apoptosis was detected by flow cytometry. The gene and protein expressions of epidermal regulator,type Ⅰ collagen,type Ⅲ collagen and α-smooth muscle actin were detected by qRT-PCR and western blot,respectively. miR-192-5p targets were predicted by a bioinformatics website,and target binding was validated by dual luciferase assay. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:(1) Compared with normal skin tissues and their fibroblasts,miR-192-5p and epidermal regulator were highly expressed in hypertrophic scar and hypertrophic scar fibroblasts (P<0.05 or P<0.01). (2) After overexpression of miR-192-5p,cell proliferation was enhanced (P<0.05) and EdU positive cell rate increased (P<0.01) when compared with the negative control group;after inhibition of miR-192-5p,cell viability (P<0.05) and EdU positive rate decreased (P<0.05). (3) At 24 hours after overexpression of miR-192-5p,compared with the negative control group,the area between cell scratches and apoptosis rate decreased in the miR-192-5p mimic group (P<0.05) but increased in the miR-192-5p inhibitor group (P<0.01). (4) At 48 hours after transfection,the mRNA and protein levels of epidermal regulator were significantly decreased in the miR-192-5p mimic group,while the mRNA and protein levels of type Ⅰ collagen,type Ⅲ collagen and α-smooth muscle actin were significantly increased (P<0.05 or P<0.01). The miR-192-5p inhibitor group showed opposite changes in the above four indicators (P<0.05 or P<0.01). (5) The Targetscan website predicted that epidermal regulator had a potential binding site for miR-192-5p. (6) Dual luciferase assays showed that miR-192-5p could bind to epidermal regulator in a targeted manner. To conclude,overexpression of miR-192-5p can decrease the expression of epidermal regulator,and the two may be negatively regulated,suggesting that regulation of epidermal regulator may play a role in inhibiting the proliferation of hypertrophic scar fibroblasts.

Objective The sample hospital is currently in the exploration stage of creating patient satisfaction service un-der the one-hospital and multi-district management mode.In order to improve the overall feeling of patients in the process of hos-pital treatment,the application effect of the existing all-round full-cycle patient service intelligent management platform in the hos-pital is quantitatively evaluated,so as to better improve the service mode.Methods A survey was conducted to collect satisfac-tion data from two groups:the experimental group,which utilized the comprehensive and full-cycle patient service intelligent man-agement platform for diagnosis and treatment services,and the control group,which followed the conventional patient admission and discharge process.The work efficiency number was obtained and calculated through the background of the system,including the average time to handle hospitalization procedures,the average waiting time for examination,the average time to handle dis-charge procedures,the time spent on each follow-up visit and the response rate of follow-up patients.The data were analyzed sta-tistically.Results The work efficiency of the experimental group was significantly better than that of the control group,and the satisfaction of hospitalized patients and staff was higher than that of the control group.Conclusion The application of the com-prehensive and full-cycle patient service intelligent management platform can improve the satisfaction of patients and staff,opti-mize the efficiency of treatment,and better serve the management mode of one hospital and multiple districts.

Objective To investigate the drug-drug interaction between donepezil hydrochloride and moxifloxacin hydrochloride during combined administration through in vitro liver microsomal metabolism and changes in pharmacokinetic characteristics in rats.Methods A rat liver microsomal incubation system was constructed and optimized.Liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry(LC-MS/MS)analysis of donepezil hydrochloride and high-performance liquid chromatography(HPLC)analysis of moxifloxacin hydro-chloride were performed.The pharmacokinetic and metabolic characteristics of the two drugs,alone and in combination,were compared in vitro using rat liver microsomes and in vivo using rats.Results In the liver microsomal system,the half-life(T1/2)of donepezil hydro-chloride in the combined administration 1 group was prolonged by 29.892％(P＜0.01)and the intrinsic clearance(CLint)was reduced by 23.194％(P＜0.01)compared with the donepezil hydrochloride group.Conversely,the metabolic parameters of moxifloxacin hydrochlo-ride in the combined administration 2 group did not differ significantly from that of the moxifloxacin hydrochloride group(P＞0.05).In the in vivo study,the AUC0～t and AUC0～∞ of donepezil hydrochloride in the combined administration 1 group increased by 44.259％and 44.496％,respectively,maximum plasma concentration(Cmax)increased by 117.723％,T1/2 was prolonged by 98.063％,and CLint was reduced by 35.293％,compared with that in the donepezil hydrochloride group.Moreover,the differences were all statistically significant(P＜0.05).The in vivo study findings were consistent with the results of the in vitro study.Conclusion A drug-drug interaction occurs when moxifloxacin hydrochloride is used in combination with donepezil hydrochloride.Moxifloxacin hydrochloride promotes the absorption of donepezil hydrochloride,inhibits its metabolism,slows its CLint,and increases donepezil exposure in the body.

Objective: To analyze the association of eating dining locations and their association with nutritional status among Chinese children aged 6-17 years,so as to provide reference for guiding children s reasonable diet. Methods: Stratified random cluster sampling was used to select children aged 6 to 17 years from 28 cities and rural areas of 14 provinces in East, North, Central, South, Southwest, Northwest, Northeast of China, and a total of 52 535 children were included in the study from 2019 to 2021. Information including dining locations, demographic characteristics, dietary intakes and physical activity were collected through a questionnaire survey. Fasting body height and weight were measured in the morning. Unordered multiclass Logistic regression analysis was conducted to assess the relationship between dining locations and nutritional status in children. Results: Regarding children s dining locations, 66.3% ate breakfast at home,25.8% ate breakfast at school,7.9% ate breakfast outside (small dining tables, restaurants, stalls, etc.); 67.7% ate dinner at home,29.0% ate dinner at school,3.3% ate dinner outside; and 63.6% ate lunch at school,30.8% ate lunch at home,5.7% ate lunch outside. The prevalence rates of overweight/obesity and undernutrition were 28.6% and 9.3%, respectively. The adjusted multiclass Logistic regression analysis (controlling for age, region, parental education, household income, total energy intake, and moderate-to-vigorous physical activity) demonstrated that, compared to eating at home, school based breakfast and dinner consumption was associated with significantly lower overweight/obesity risks for both genders (boys: breakfast OR =0.70, 95% CI =0.65-0.75; dinner OR =0.80, 95% CI = 0.74- 0.86; girls: breakfast OR = 0.89 , 95% CI = 0.82-0.96; dinner OR =0.88, 95% CI =0.81-0.95), whereas eating lunch away from home significantly increased overweight/obesity risks (boys: OR =1.32, 95% CI =1.17-1.48; girls: OR =1.43, 95% CI =1.26- 1.62 ), with all associations being statistically significant ( P <0.05). After adjusting for confounding factors, boys who ate breakfast away from home showed a significantly reduced risk of undernutrition ( OR =0.80,95% CI =0.66-0.97), while those consuming lunch away from home had an increased risk ( OR =1.26, 95% CI =1.01-1.57) ( P <0.05). Conclusions The choice of dining locations for children is becoming more diverse, and a relatively high proportion of children eat meals outside the home and at school. Eating out have a higher risk of malnutrition for children. School feeding may be beneficial to children s physical health.

Objective:To explore the pathogenic mechanism of a child with Waardenburg syndrome type 4C due to a c. 661_664dup (p.P222Lfs*60) variant of SOX10 gene through in vitro experiments. Methods:A child diagnosed at the Handan First Hospital was selected as the study subject. Clinical data of the child was collected. Peripheral blood samples were collected from the child and his parents. Following extraction of genomic DNA, trio-whole exome sequencing was carried out. Pathogenicity of candidate variant was determined by bioinformatic analysis and reference to the guidelines from the American College of Medical Genetics and Genomics (ACMG). Candidate variant was verified by Sanger sequencing. Expression plasmids of wild-type SOX10 and the c. 661_664dup (p.P222Lfs*60) variant were constructed and transiently transfected into 293T cells to determine the expression at the RNA and protein levels. The 293T cells transiently transfected with the wild-type/mutant SOX10 were treated with 10 μg/mL cycloheximide (CHX) for 0, 4, 8, 24 h, respectively, and the degradation rate of target protein was detected by Western blotting assay. This study has been approved by the Ethics Committe of Handan First Hospital(Ethics No.HDYY-LW-25053). Results:The child was found to harbor a heterozygous c. 661_664dup (p.P222Lfs*60) variant of the SOX10 gene, which was unreported previously. The variant did not significantly alter the expression of SOX10 at the mRNA level but the protein level. After the CHX treatment, the degradation of mutant SOX10 protein had slowed down. Conclusion:The mutant SOX10 may affect the expression of downstream genes by affecting the degradation rate of its protein product.

Objective: To understand the prevalence of elevated blood pressure and its association with dietary patterns in children and adolescents in China, providing evidence for developing dietary intervention of hypertension in children and adolescents. Methods: Data were derived from the China Children s Nutrition and Health System Survey and Application Project(2019-2021). A stratified cluster random sampling method was used to include 7 933 participants from 28 survey sites in seven major regions of Northeast, North, Northwest, East, Central, South and Southwest China. Multivariate Logistic regression models were used to analyze associations between demographic characteristics, nutritional status and elevated blood pressure. Exploratory factor analysis identified dietary patterns, which were divided into three quartile groups (T3, T2, T1) based on factor scores (compliance for dietary pattern) from high to low, and multivariate Logistic regression model assessed the correlation between elevated blood pressure and dietary patterns. Results: The prevalence of elevated blood pressure was 15.4% among Chinese children aged 7-17 years. Significant differences were observed across nutritional status (reference: underweight; normal weight: OR =1.57; overweight: OR = 2.61 ; obesity: OR =3.85), urban/rural residence (reference: rural; urban: OR =0.86), and paternal education (reference: junior high school and below; bachelor degree or above: OR =0.68) ( P <0.05). The detection rates of high blood pressure in T3 group children and adolescents with four dietary patterns (staple food, animal based food, snacks, vegetables and fruits) were 15.7%, 14.6%, 16.8%, and 15.8%, respectively. After adjusting for residence, paternal education, and nutritional status, the "snack dietary pattern" (mainly candy, sugar sweetened beverages, and processed snacks) showed positive associations with elevated blood pressure in T2 ( OR =1.21) and T3 ( OR =1.19) tertiles ( P <0.05). Conclusions The snack dietary pattern is a related factor for elevated blood pressure in children and adolescents. Restricting unhealthy snack intake may promote cardiovascular health.

Objective: To explore the influencing factors of recurrence in postoperative patients with renal cell carcinoma，construct machine learning prediction models and evaluate their performance. Methods: Clinical data of 915 patients with renal cell carcinoma treated in our hospital during 2013 and 2021 were retrospectively collected.The data were randomly divided into a training set (n=510) and a validation set (n=218) in a 7∶3 ratio.In the training set，LASSO regression algorithm was used to screen important variables，and machine learning prediction models were constructed to predict the recurrence risk.In the validation set，the effectiveness of the models was compared combined with the area under receiver operating characteristic curve (AUC)，accuracy rate，F1 value and other indicators. Results: LASSO regression screened out the risk factors，including smoking history，tumor size，N stage，Fuhrman grade，thrombin time and fibrinogen，based on which，the logistic model，decision tree model，random forest model，and Bayes model were constructed.In the validation set，the AUC of the above 4 models was 0.862，0.792，0.843 and 0.861，respectively; the accuracy was 0.917，0.908，0.904 and 0.927，respectively; F1 value was 0.357，0.286，0.323 and 0.600，respectively.The Bayes model had the most stable performance and best differentiation. Conclusion: In this data set，the prediction model based on Bayes algorithm has a good performance and can provide reference for clinical decision making.

Misophonia is a psychophysiological and behavioral disorder characterized by an individual's low tolerance to specific sounds， leading to intense negative emotional experiences and physiological responses. Currently， there is no standardized and universally effective treatment for misophonia in clinical practice worldwide. This article reports the case of an 18-year-old male patient with misophonia who showed poor response to sertraline combined with exposure and response prevention therapy. Subsequently， the patient received 8 weeks of Morita therapy （once a week， 50 minutes per session）， with symptomatic improvement. By presenting this case， we explore the potential efficacy of Morita therapy in treating misophonia， aiming to provide a reference for its clinical management. ［Funded by Scientific Research Development Fund Project of Shandong Second Medical University （number， 2024FYM034）］
