Objective To explore the effects of Yin Yang 1(YY1)on the proliferation and migration of bladder cancer cells and investigate the underlying mechanisms,so as to provide reference for the prevention and treatment of this disease.Methods The expression patterns of YY1 in common genitourinary tumors and their associations with the prognosis were analyzed using data from The Cancer Genome Atlas(TCGA)and the Gene Expression Omnibus(GEO).The efficiency of YY1 knockdown and overexpression in bladder cancer cell lines(T24 and UM-UC-3)was confirmed with quantitative reverse transcription PCR(qRT-PCR)and Western blotting.Cell proliferation and migration were assessed using methylthiazolyldiphenyl-tetrazolium bromide(MTT)and Transwell assays.RNA sequencing followed by bioinformatics analyses,including Gene Ontology(GO),Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes(KEGG),and Gene Set Enrichment Analysis(GSEA),was conducted to predict potential mechanisms.The qRT-PCR and rescue experiments were performed to validate whether YY1 exerted its effects via the E2F1 signaling pathway.Results YY1 was significantly overexpressed in bladder cancer compared to other genitourinary tumors and was associated with higher tumor grade and poorer prognosis(P＜0.05).Functional assays demonstrated that YY1 promoted the proliferation and migration of bladder cancer cells.Transcriptome analyses revealed that YY1 might regulate these processes through the E2F signaling pathway.Moreover,overexpression of E2F1 partially reversed the inhibitory effects of YY1 knockdown on bladder cancer cell proliferation and migration.Conclusion YY1 is upregulated in bladder cancer and is closely associated with tumor grade and unfavorable prognosis.It may facilitate tumor cell proliferation and migration by modulating the E 2F1 signaling pathway.

Obesity, as a chronic recurrent disease, has become a major public health challenge in China. To implement the requirements of the Healthy China Initiative (2019—2030), under domestic guidelines or consensus statements on overweight and obesity, and in alignment with the latest scientific advances globally, the Quality control protocol for adult overweight and obesity screening in health management (examination) institutions (2025 edition) was developed. This protocol was drafted by the Health Management Center of Shanghai Changzheng Hospital and formulated through multiple rounds of deliberation by experts in China’s health examination quality control field. The protocol establishes unified standards for screening facilities, personnel qualifications, and measurement or testing procedures. It defines specific screening items, outlines a standardized screening pathway, and sets requirements for the final medical review, ensuring the scientific validity, effectiveness, and safety of the screening process. The implementation of this protocol will enhance the consistency of weight management practices for adults across health examination institutions and strengthen the quality control of overweight and obesity screening programs.

Objective:To explore the effect of horizontal Baduanjin guided by interactive standard reaching theory(ISRT)on cardiac function and quality of life in patients with chronic heart failure(CHF).Methods:This random-ized controlled study enrolled 114 patients diagnosed with CHF in Bozhou People's Hospital between September 2024 and February 2025.Patients were randomly divided into control group(n=57,routine nursing care)and interven-tion group(n=57,horizontal Baduanjin under the guidance of interactive standard theory).Both groups were con-tinuously treated for 3 months.Cardiac function indexes,N-terminal pro-brain natriuretic peptide(NT-proB-NP),self-care ability,quality of life and incidence of major adverse cardiovascular events(MACE)were com-pared between the two groups.Results:Compared to patients in the control group,those in the intervention had significant higher left ventricular ejection fraction(LVEF)[(56.34±0.86)％vs.(46.69±0.91)％],6min walking distance(6MWD)[(477.16±6.62)m vs.(451.39±4.17)m]and the proportion of New York Heart Association(NYHA)class Ⅱ(70.18％vs.35.09％),and significant lower NT-proBNP[(237.76±6.41)pg/ml vs.(377.46±6.85)pg/ml],scores of the European heart failure self-care behavior scale 9(EHFSCB-9)[(12.61±1.81)points vs.(25.51±1.71)points],the physical domain[(3.96±0.91)points vs.(11.05±0.79)points],emotional domain[(4.00±0.85)points vs.(11.95±0.81)points]and other domain[(4.05±0.83)points vs.(13.47±1.15)points]of MLHFQ(P＜0.001 all).Compared to those in the control group,patients in intervention group had significant lower incidence of MACE(7.02％vs.22.81％,P=0.035).Conclusion:Under the guidance of the interactive standard theory,the horizontal Baduanjin exercise may enhance the cardiac function,improve self-care ability and quality of life in patients with chronic heart failure.

Parkinson's disease (PD) is a chronic neurodegenerative disease. At present, levodopa and other drugs are mainly used for dopamine supplementation therapy. However, the absorption of levodopa in the gastrointestinal tract is unstable and its half-life is short, and long-term use of levodopa will lead to the end-of-dose deterioration, dyskinesia, the "ON-OFF" phenomenon and other symptoms. Therefore, new preparations need to be developed to improve drug efficacy, reduce side effects or improve compliance of patients. Based on the above clinical needs, this review briefly introduced the preparation modification strategies for the treatment of PD through case analysis, in order to provide references for the research and development of related preparations.

Visceral leishmaniasis is a zoonotic parasitic disease caused by viscerotropic Leishmania species and transmitted by bites of infected phlebotomine sandflies, which is predominantly prevalent in the Indian subcontinent, eastern Africa and South America. Currently, visceral leishmaniasis is the second most fatal parasitic disease in the world. Because of climate changes, urban development and individual conditions, there are changes in the density of visceral leishmaniasis vector sandflies and the likelihood of contact with humans, resulting in a visceral leishmaniasis transmission risk. The review summarizes natural, social and biological factors affecting the transmission of visceral leishmaniasis, so as to provide insights into formulation of targeted control measures for visceral leishmaniasis.

Ferroptosis,discovered in 2012,is a newly form of non-apoptotic and non-necrotic cell death,which is characterized by an increasement in lipid peroxidation and accumulation of intracellular iron ions.Glutathione peroxidase 4(GPX4)is the fourth member of the selenoprotein GPx family and plays a crucial role in clearing lipid peroxides in cells,making it an important regulator of ferroptosis.Small molecule inhibitors targeting GPX4 can induce ferroptosis,offering a new strategy for treating drug-resistant cancers and neurodegenerative diseases.The protein structure and function of GPX4 were primarily discusseed,and the latest advances in small molecule inhibitors of GPX4 were summarized,which provided a research foundation for developing ferroptosis inducers based on GPX4 inhibition.

Objective To investigate the incidence rate,clinical characteristics,and prognosis of neonatal stroke in Shenzhen,China.Methods Led by Shenzhen Children's Hospital,the Shenzhen Neonatal Data Collaboration Network organized 21 institutions to collect 36 cases of neonatal stroke from January 2020 to December 2022.The incidence,clinical characteristics,treatment,and prognosis of neonatal stroke in Shenzhen were analyzed.Results The incidence rate of neonatal stroke in 21 hospitals from 2020 to 2022 was 1/15 137,1/6 060,and 1/7 704,respectively.Ischemic stroke accounted for 75％(27/36);boys accounted for 64％(23/36).Among the 36 neonates,31(86％)had disease onset within 3 days after birth,and 19(53％)had convulsion as the initial presentation.Cerebral MRI showed that 22 neonates(61％)had left cerebral infarction and 13(36％)had basal ganglia infarction.Magnetic resonance angiography was performed for 12 neonates,among whom 9(75％)had involvement of the middle cerebral artery.Electroencephalography was performed for 29 neonates,with sharp waves in 21 neonates(72％)and seizures in 10 neonates(34％).Symptomatic/supportive treatment varied across different hospitals.Neonatal Behavioral Neurological Assessment was performed for 12 neonates(33％,12/36),with a mean score of(32±4)points.The prognosis of 27 neonates was followed up to around 12 months of age,with 44％(12/27)of the neonates having a good prognosis.Conclusions Ischemic stroke is the main type of neonatal stroke,often with convulsions as the initial presentation,involvement of the middle cerebral artery,sharp waves on electroencephalography,and a relatively low neurodevelopment score.Symptomatic/supportive treatment is the main treatment method,and some neonates tend to have a poor prognosis.

Sucrose synthase plays a crucial role in the plant sugar metabolism pathway by catalyzing the production of uridine diphosphate (UDP)-glucose, which serves as a bioactive glycosyl donor for various metabolic processes. In this study, a sucrose synthase gene named CtSus was cloned from Cistanche tubulosa, a traditional Chinese medicine known for its rich content of diverse glycosides, based on transcriptome analysis results. The open reading frame of CtSus was 2 418 bp long encoding 805 amino acids. Sequence analysis revealed conserved domains associated with the plant sucrose synthase family at both the N-terminal and C-terminal regions of CtSus protein. Phylogenetic analysis demonstrated that CtSus shares a close evolutionary relationship with sucrose synthases from other plants within the same order. Functional identification of CtSus was performed through whole-cell catalysis coupling with UGT71BD1, a characterized glycosyltransferase enzyme. The results showed that the introduction of CtSus significantly enhanced the conversion rate of glycosylation catalyzed by UGT71BD1. The soluble expression of CtSus in Escherichia coli was further achieved using the pCold^TM TF expression vector. In vitro enzymatic assay indicated the activity of CtSus to catalyze the formation of UDP-glucose in the presence of sucrose and UDP. Real-time quantitative-polymerase chain reaction results showed that the expression patterns of CtSus gene in different parts of C. tubulosa and the suspension cell cultures of C. tubulosa under drought stress correlated with the accumulation patterns observed for phenylethanol glycosides, respectively. Furthermore, key amino acids and their interactions between enzyme and substrate were explored based on protein structure prediction and molecular docking results. Overall, our findings identify a sucrose synthase CtSus responsible for the supply of the active glycosyl donor UDP-glucose during the biosynthesis of glycoside products in C. tubulosa and have also provided a gene element that can be utilized in engineering strain construction for glycoside products production.
