The acquired immune deficiency syndrome(AIDS)-induced fever is mainly characterized by long-term,recurrent and irregular symptom,which poses a major threat to the quality of life of the AIDS patients.Tradition-al Chinese Medicine(TCM)has offered an approach of treatment determination based on syndrome differentiation and formula corresponding to syndrome on basis of the idea of'same disease,different therapies'.The earliest or-igin of the idea of'same disease,different therapies' can be traced back to'Huang Di Nei Jing',it plays a signifi-cant role in the theory of TCM after continuous enrichment and development by ancient medical families.The indi-vidualized therapeutic regimen is formulated based on the etiology,pathogenesis and physical condition(such as qi-insufficiency constitution,phlegm-dampness constitution),emphasizing the vital role of'treatment determina-tion based on syndrome differentiation'in the treatment process,highlighting the importance of personnel experi-ence of doctors,and showing the precise effect of TCM on treatment of AIDS-induced fever.

Increasing evidence showed that histone deacetylase 6(HDAC6)dysfunction is directly associated with the onset and progression of various diseases,especially cancers,making the development of HDAC6-targeted anti-tumor agents a research hotspot.In this study,artificial intelligence(AI)technology and molecular simulation strategies were fully integrated to construct an efficient and precise drug screening pipeline,which combined Voting strategy based on compound-protein interaction(CPI)prediction models,cascade molecular docking,and molecular dynamic(MD)simulations.The biological potential of the screened compounds was further evaluated through enzymatic and cellular activity assays.Among the identified compounds,Cmpd.18 exhibited more potent HDAC6 enzyme inhibitory activity(IC50=5.41 nM)than that of tubastatin A(TubA)(IC50=15.11 nM),along with a favorable subtype selectivity profile(selectivity index ≈ 117.23 for HDAC1),which was further verified by the Western blot analysis.Additionally,Cmpd.18 induced G2/M phase arrest and promoted apoptosis in HCT-116 cells,exerting desirable antiproliferative activity(IC50=2.59 μM).Furthermore,based on long-term MD simulation trajectory,the key residues facilitating Cmpd.18's binding were identified by decomposition free energy analysis,thereby elucidating its binding mechanism.Moreover,the representative conformation analysis also indicated that Cmpd.18 could stably bind to the active pocket in an effective conformation,thus demonstrating the potential for in-depth research of the 2-(2-phenoxyethyl)pyridazin-3(2H)-one scaffold.

Background The decline of physical activity in the elderly due to aging may increase the risk of sarcopenia. Currently, there is a lack of evidence from large natural populations on the relationship between PA and sarcopenia. Objective To explore the relationship between PA and sarcopenia in the elderly aged 60 years and above in 10 provinces (autonomous regions) of China. Methods Data were retrieved from the 2022—2023 round of the China Development and Nutrition Health Impact Cohort. Personal basic information and PA data were collected by questionnaire survey. Skeletal muscle mass was measured by bio-electrical impedance analysis, muscle strength was measured using a grip dynamometer, and physical performance was reflected by 6-meter walk speed. The Asian Working Group for Sarcopenia (AWGS) 2019 criteria were used to diagnose sarcopenia. Light physical activity (LPA) duration, moderate-to-vigorous physical activity (MVPA) duration, and total physical activity volume were calculated. A total of 3326 residents aged ≥60 years with complete data were selected as the survey participants. Multiple logistic regression models and restricted cubic splines (RCS) were used to assess the association between PA duration/volume and sarcopenia. Results In 10 provinces (autonomous regions) of China, the prevalence of sarcopenia in the elderly aged 60 years and above was 5.5% (95%CI: 4.7%, 6.2%). The logistic regression analysis showed that compared with the elderly reporting 0-7.0 h·week⁻¹ in LPA duration, the risk of sarcopenia in the elderly with LPA duration of >14.0-21.0 h·week⁻¹ was reduced by 51% (OR=0.49, 95%CI: 0.26, 0.96). Compared with the elderly with total physical activity ≥15.0 metabolic equivalent of task (MET)-h·week⁻¹, those with <7.5 MET-h·week⁻¹ had a 2.24-fold increased risk of sarcopenia (OR=2.24, 95%CI: 1.17, 4.29). The RCS results found that LPA duration and total physical activity volume each showed a nonlinear dose-response relationship with the risk of sarcopenia (P_overall<0.05, P_non-linear<0.05). Compared with the elderly with an LPA duration of 0 h· week⁻¹, the risk of sarcopenia in the elderly with an LPA duration of 12.6 h· week⁻¹ was the lowest (OR=0.42, 95%CI: 0.21, 0.83). Compared with the elderly with a total physical activity volume of 15.0 MET-h· week⁻¹, the elderly with a total physical activity volume of 46.0 MET-h· week⁻¹ had the lowest risk of sarcopenia (OR=0.57, 95%CI: 0.38, 0.84). There was no statistically significant association between weekly MVPA duration and the risk of sarcopenia (P>0.05). Conclusion Increasing weekly LPA duration and total physical activity volume would help to reduce the risk of sarcopenia.

Objective To explore the feasibility, safety, and efficacy of transesophageal endoscopic surgery for mediastinal tumors. Methods A retrospective analysis was conducted on the clinical data of 17 patients who underwent transesophageal endoscopic resection for benign mediastinal tumors at the Endoscopy Center of Zhongshan Hospital, Fudan University, between January 1, 2016 and December 31, 2024. Epidemiological characteristics, surgical parameters, adverse events, and follow-up outcomes were analyzed. Results Among the 17 patients, there were 9 males and 8 females, with an average age of (42.4±14.5) years and an average tumor size of (2.6±1.6) cm. Pathological types included esophageal duplication cysts (6 cases, 35.3%), bronchogenic cysts (5 cases, 29.4%), gastroenteric cysts (3 cases, 17.6%), schwannomas (2 cases, 11.8%), and lymphangioma (1 case, 5.9%). Fourteen patients (82.4%) underwent submucosal tunneling endoscopic resection (STER), 3 patients (17.6%) underwent natural orifice transluminal endoscopic mediastinal surgery. All surgeries were successfully completed without conversion to open surgery. En bloc resection was achieved in 11 patients (64.7%), with an average operative time of (60.9±32.6) min. No intraoperative bleeding or mucosal injury occurred, and 4 patients (23.5%) experienced minor complications (pneumothorax, fever, recurrent laryngeal nerve injury), all of which resolved with conservative treatment. The average postoperative hospital stay was (3.2±1.5) days, and no recurrence was observed during the follow-up period. Conclusions Transesophageal endoscopic resection of benign mediastinal tumors is a safe, effective, and minimally invasive treatment method. Further validation of its efficacy and safety through large-scale prospective studies is warranted.

Objective:To evaluate the predictive value of simplified geriatric assessment (sGA) in elderly Chinese patients diagnosed with diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL) .Methods:It retrospectively analyzed the relationships of sGA with the clinical characteristics, outcome, and prognosis of 219 patients aged ≥60 years who were newly diagnosed with DLBCL at six hospitals in Jiangsu province between January 2018 and December 2022.Results:The median age of 219 patients was 68 years (60-87 years). According to the sGA system criteria, 101 (46.1%), 103 (47.0%), and 15 (6.8%) elderly patients with DLBCL were categorized as fit, unfit, and frail, respectively. The most common adverse reactions after chemotherapy were hematologic, and the incidence of grade >2 hematologic adverse reactions was similar among the three groups (47.5% vs 41.7% vs 46.7%, respectively; χ2=0.712, P=0.700). Compared with the fit and unfit groups, the frail group showed tendencies toward for higher proportions of grade >2 gastrointestinal, pulmonary, and infectious adverse reactions ( P>0.05 for all). The fit, unfit, and frail groups had respective remission rates of 74.3%, 46.6%, and 20.0% ( χ2=25.249, P<0.001) ; disease progression rates of 5.9%, 11.7%, and 26.7% ( χ2=6.763, P<0.05) ; 2-year overall survival rates of 92.1% (95% CI 86.6% to 97.9%), 77.6% (95% CI 69.5% to 86.6%), and 70.1% (95% CI 49.4% to 99.6%) ( P<0.05) ; and 2-year progression-free survival rates of 76.8% (95% CI 67.0% to 84.8%), 69.7% (95% CI 61.8% to 82.0%), and 65.7% (95% CI 53.3% to 100%) ( P=0.399) . Conclusion:sGA can effectively predict treatment adverse effects and efficacy, disease progression, and long-term survival in elderly DLBCL.

“Runner’s high” refers to a momentary sense of pleasure that suddenly appears during running or other exercise activities, characterized by anti-anxiety, pain relief, and other symptoms. The neurobiological mechanism of “runner’s high” is unclear. This review summarizes human and animal models for studying “runner’s high”, analyzes the neurotransmitters and neural circuits involved in runner’s high, and elucidates the evidence and shortcomings of researches related to “runner’s high”. This review also provides prospects for future research. Research has found that exercise lasting more than 30 min and with an intensity exceeding 70% of the maximum heart rate can reach a “runner’s high”. Human experiments on “runner’s high” mostly use treadmill exercise intervention, and evaluate it through questionnaire surveys, measurement of plasma AEA, miRNA and other indicators. Animal experiments often use voluntary wheel running intervention, and evaluate it through behavioral experiments such as conditional place preference, light dark box experiments (anxiety), hot plate experiments (pain sensitivity), and measurement of plasma AEA and other indicators. Dopamine, endogenous opioid peptides, endogenous cannabinoids, brain-derived neurotrophic factor, and other substances increase after exercise, which may be related to the “runner’s high”. However, attention should be paid to the functional differences of these substances in the central and peripheral regions, as well as in different brain regions. Moreover, current studies have not identified the targets of the neurotransmitters or neural factors mentioned above, and further in-depth researches are needed. The mesolimbic dopamine system, prefrontal cortex-nucleus accumbens projection, ventral hippocampus-nucleus accumbens projection, red nucleus-ventral tegmental area projection, cerebellar-ventral tegmental area projection, and brain-gut axis may be involved in the regulation of runner’s high, but there is a lack of direct evidence to prove their involvement. There are still many issues that need to be addressed in the research on the neurobiological mechanisms of “runner’s high”. (1) Most studies on “runner’s high” involve one-time exercise, and the characteristics of changes in “runner’s high” during long-term exercise still need to be explored. (2) The using of scales to evaluate subjects lead to the lacking of objective indicators. However, some potential biomarkers (such as endocannabinoids) have inconsistent characteristics of changes after one-time and long-term exercise. (3) The neurotransmitters involved in the formation of the “runner’s high” all increase in the peripheral and/or central nervous system after exercise. Attention should be paid to whether peripheral substances can enter the blood-brain barrier and the binding effects of neurotransmitters to different receptors are completely different in different brain regions. (4) Most of the current evidence show that some brain regions are activated after exercise. Is there a functional circuit mediating “runner’s high” between these brain regions? (5) Although training at a specific exercise intensity can lead to “runner’s high”, most runners have not experienced “runner’s high”. Can more scientific training methods or technological means be used to make it easier for people to experience the “runner’s high” and thus be more willing to engage in exercise? (6) The “runner’s high” and “addiction” behaviors are extremely similar, and there are evidences that exercise can reverse addictive behaviors. However, why is there still a considerable number of people in the sports population and even athletes who smoke or use addictive drugs instead of pursuing the “pleasure” brought by exercise? Solving the problems above is of great significance for enhancing the desire of exercise, improving the clinical application of neurological and psychiatric diseases through exercise, and enhancing the overall physical fitness of the population.

Objective To investigate the expression of serum long non-coding RNA X-inactive specific transcript(lncRNA XIST)and microRNA-126-3p(miR-126-3p)in patients with non-small cell lung cancer(NSCLC),and their relationship with recurrence after radical surgery.Methods A total of 108 NSCLC patients who underwent radical surgery and were admitted to General Hospital of Southern Theater Command of the People's Liberation Army of China from February 2019 to October 2020 were selected as the NSCLC group,and 52 healthy volunteers who underwent physical examination in this hospital were selected as the control group.qRT-PCR method was used to detect the relative expression levels of serum lncRNA XIST and miR-126-3p.Pearson method was used to analyze the correlation between serum lncRNA XIST and miR-126-3p expression.Logistic regression analysis was used to analyze the influencing factors of postoperative recurrence in NSCLC patients.Receiver operating characteristic(ROC)curve was used to evaluate the predictive value of serum lncRNA XIST and miR-126-3p on postoperative recurrence in patients.Results The expression level of serum lncRNA XIST in the NSCLC group was higher than that in the control group(P<0.05),while the expression level of miR-126-3p was lower than that in the control group(P<0.05).The expression levels of serum lncRNA XIST and miR-126-3p were related to TNM staging and lymph node metastasis(P<0.05).Bioinformatics website predicted that there was a targeted binding site between lncRNA XIST and miR-126-3p,and serum lncRNA XIST was negatively correlated with miR-126-3p expression(r=-0.579,P<0.05).Compared with the non-recurrent group,the expression level of serum lncRNA XIST in the recurrent group increased(P<0.05),while the expression level of miR-126-3p in the recurrent group decreased(P<0.05).Logistic regression analysis results showed that lncRNA XIST,miR-126-3p,lymph node metastasis,and TNM staging were the influencing factors for postoperative recurrence in NSCLC patients(P<0.05).The area under the curve(AUC)of serum lncRNA XIST,miR-126-3p,and the combination of the two in prediction of postoperative recurrence in NSCLC patients were 0.750,0.886,and 0.933,respectively,the combined prediction of the two was superior to individual prediction(Zcombination vs.lncRNA XIST=4.076,Zcombination vs.miR-126-3p=2.065,P<0.05).Conclusion The expression of serum lncRNA XIST is increased and miR-126-3p is decreased in NSCLC patients,both of which have certain predictive value for recurrence after radical surgery in patients.

Objective Using a Meta-analysis,the efficacy and safety of Abelmoschus moschatus preparations for treating diabetic kidney disease(DKD)were evaluated from the perspectives of disease stage,drug dosage,and course of intervention.Methods Both Chinese and English databases were searched from their inception to June 24,2024,for relevant randomized controlled trial(RCT)on Abelmoschus moschatus preparations in DKD treatment.Endnote 21 software was applied for reference management and filtering,while Co-chrane risk of bias assessment tool and RevMan 5.4 were used for systematic evaluation.Results Initially,a total of 1386 literatures were retrieved in this study,and 28 literatures were finally included after further screening,encompassing a total sample size of 2631 pa-tients.Four types of Abelmoschus moschatus preparations were included:Huangkui capsules,Qikui granules,Jiahua tablets,and Li-uhuang Tangshenkang decoction.The Meta-analysis results showed that Abelmoschus moschatus preparations could reduce multiple indi-cators,such as serum creatinine(SMD=-0.38,95％CI:-0.55--0.21,P＜0.0001)、cystatin C(MD=-0.48,95％CI:-0.63--0.33,P＜0.00001),urinary albumin/creatinine ratio(SMD=-0.74,95％CI:-1.10--0.38,P＜0.0001),urinary albumin excretion rate(SMD=-1.58,95％CI:-1.93--1.24,P＜0.00001)and 24h urine total protein(SMD=-1.00,95％CI:-1.34--0.66,P＜0.00001)in DKD patients,the total clinical effective rate was higher than that of the control group(OR=4.57,95％CI:3.12-6.70,P＜0.00001).The included literatures show that the treatment object of Abelmoschus moschatus prepara-tions was DKD patients at Ⅰ-Ⅳ stage.The dosage of Abelmoschus moschatus preparations ranged from 3-42g,with 30g being the most common,and exceptions as high as 90g in clinical practice,all of which could effectively treat DKD.The course of intervention in the in-cluded literatures was mainly short-term(8-12 weeks),and there were also patients with long-term intervention(≥6months).The overall efficacy of each course of intervention was higher compared with the conventional treatment group.The results of subgroup analysis showed that short-term interventio had the best efficacy on reducing urinary albumin excretion rate and 24h urine total protein,suggesting that Abelmoschus moschatus preparations can play a positive role in the short term.No significant adverse reactions were observed in inter-vention with Abelmoschus moschatus preparations at a dosage range of 3-42g.However,due to the scarcity of literature references on the application of high-dose Abelmoschus moschatus preparations,their safety needs further investigation.Conclusion Abelmoschus mos-chatus preparations can be used for the indication of DKD stages Ⅰ-Ⅳ at a common clinical dosage of 30g(dosage range:3-90g)in common dosage forms of substitutional tea,Chinese patent drug,and decoction of Chinese medicine.Regular administration of Abelmos-chus moschatus preparations can not only help to reduce urine protein,delay renal function decline,but also show fewer adverse reactions of drug,which makes them worthy of being popularized for clinical practices.

Objective To investigate the safety of intravascular lithotripsy(IVL)and coronary rotational atherectomy(RA)in the management of coronary artery calcification(CAC).Methods In this retrospective,matched-pair cohort study,210 patients with severe CAC treated at Zhongshan Hospital,Fudan University between December 2021 and April 2025 were enrolled.The cohort was equally divided into two interventional groups:IVL group(n=105)and RA group(n=105),based on the revascularization strategy employed.Procedure parameters,postoperative biochemical markers of myocardial injury,and incidence of in-hospital major adverse cardiovascular events(MACE)were compared between the two groups.Results Before propensity score matching(PSM),statistically significant differences were observed in terms of the proportions of the left anterior descending artery(77.1％vs.63.8％,P=0.034),the right coronary artery(14.3％vs.30.5％,P=0.005),and the percentage of target vessel stenosis[85％(80％,90％)vs.80％(80％,90％),P=0.014]between the IVL and RA groups.After PSM,these differences became insignificant(all P＞0.05).There is no statistically significant differences in stent implantation rate,drug-coated balloon usage rate,stent diameter,or total stent length between the IVL and RA groups(all P＞0.05).Compared to the RA group,although the IVL group had a higher utilization of tirofiban after the procedure,and a lower rate of intravenous nitrate during the procedure,these differences were not statistically significant(all P＞0.05).cTnT levels increased significantly after the procedure in both the IVL and RA groups(all P＜0.001).Before PSM,the preoperative cTnT levels were comparable between the IVL and RA groups(P=0.525),while a statistically significant difference emerged postoperatively(P=0.038).The incidence of in-hospital myocardial infarction showed no significant intergroup difference(8.6％vs.16.2％,P=0.094),and no events of death or target vessel revascularization occurred in either group.After PSM,despite no significant difference in preoperative cTnT levels between the IVL and RA groups(P=0.235),a significant difference was observed postoperatively(P=0.014).Furthermore,while no deaths or target vessel revascularization occurred in either group,the IVL group demonstrated a significantly lower incidence of in-hospital myocardial infarction compared to the RA group(9.9％vs.23.9％,P=0.025).Conclusions The use of intravascular lithotripsy for the pretreatment in patients with severe CAC is safe and promising.

Objective To construct a high-precision statistical shape model of the humerus and systematically describe its anatomical variation patterns.Methods In this study,a statistical shape model of the humerus was constructed using the three-dimensional model data of 60 collected humerus cases.The principal component analysis method was adopted to reveal the main patterns of humerus anatomical variations and their contribution rates.Results The results showed that the first five principal components(PC01-PC05)collectively explained 96.6%of the total anatomical variations.Among them,PC01 and PC02 were the main components,contributing 66.6%and 23.5%of the variations respectively.PC01 mainly reflects the scaling effect of the overall size(length/width)of the humerus,while PC02 reveals the length variation characteristics independent of the overall scaling,which may reflect individualized differences.The subsequent principal components(PC03-PC05)depicted the local morphological characteristics and fine changes of the proximal and distal humerus.Conclusion The statistical shape model constructed in this study provides a reliable digital basis for personalized prosthesis design,surgical planning and biomechanical simulation.
