Objective:To investigate the clinical value of combined detection of serum immunoglobulin G (IgG), T-frame protein 21 (TBX21), and microRNA-335 (miR-335) in the diagnosis of lupus nephritis (LN).Methods:Ninety-five patients with LN treated in our hospital from January 2021 to January 2023 were selected as the observation group, while ninety-five healthy individuals were selected as the control group. Based on the systemic lupus erythematosus disease activity index (SLEDAI) score at admission, the LN patients were divided into two subgroups: the active LN group (51 cases, SLEDAI score > 4) and the stable LN group (44 cases, SLEDAI score = 0 - 4). The levels of serum IgG, TBX21, and miR-335 were compared between the two groups, and the levels of serum IgG, TBX21, miR-335, blood urea nitrogen (BUN), serum creatinine (Scr), complement C3, complement C4, and SLEDAI score were compared between the two groups. The correlations of serum IgG, PTX3, and miR-335 levels with BUN, Scr, complement C3, complement C4, and SLEDAI scores were analyzed. The diagnostic value of serum IgG, TBX21, and miR-335 in LN was evaluated.Results:Compared with the control group, the levels of serum IgG, TBX21, and miR-335 in the observation group were higher on admission (all P < 0.05). The serum levels of IgG, TBX21, and miR-335 in patients with the active stage were higher than those in patients with the stable stage on admission (all P < 0.05). On admission, the BUN, Scr, and SLEDAI scores of patients in the active stage were higher than those in the stable stage, and the levels of complement C3 and C4 were lower than those in the stable stage (all P < 0.05). The levels of serum IgG, TBX21, and miR-335 on admission were positively correlated with BUN, Scr, and SLEDAI scores and negatively correlated with complement C3 and C4 levels (all P < 0.05). The area under the curve (AUC) of the combination of serum IgG, TBX21, and miR-335 levels in the diagnosis of LN was greater than that of single detection ( P < 0.05). Conclusions:Serum IgG, TBX21, and miR-335 are closely related to disease activity and can be used as reference indicators for the diagnosis and prediction of LN in clinical practice, enabling the development of early targeted treatment plans.

With the increasing emphasis on the bio-psycho-social medical model, significant progress has been made in patient-reported outcomes. Now, through a comprehensive analysis and synthesis of literature within the field, this study explores the advancements in the application of patient-reported outcomes in clinical research on lymphoma. The intention is to provide valuable references for future related studies.

ObjectiveTo explore and analyze the influencing factors of myopia among the primary and middle school students, and to provide an evidence for the prevention and control of myopia in students through the combination of scientific use in electronic products and adherence improvement to outdoor activities. MethodsStratified cluster sampling method was used to select 4 schools in Jiading District, in which all the students in grades 3‒5 of primary school and grades 7‒9 of middle school were enrolled into the study for a questionnaire survey and refraction examination. The χ2 test was used to compare the data between the myopic and non-myopic group. Logistic regression analysis was used to analyze the influencing factors of myopia. ResultsThe total myopia detection rate among the primary and middle school students in the industrial zone of Jiading District was 62.8%, with a detection rate of 46.9% for primary school students and 75.6% for middle school students, respectively. Logistic regression analysis showed that middle school (OR=3.639, 95%CI=3.045‒4.349, P<0.001), female students (OR=1.278, 95%CI=1.081‒1.510, P=0.004), the frequency of school desks and chairs was adjusted>1 semester (OR=1.227, 95%CI=1.031‒1.461, P=0.021), the length of time spent on extracurricular tutorial classes for main courses ≥1 hour in a week (OR=1.205,95%CI=1.009‒1.440, P=0.040), parents reduced the length of time that their children spent on exercise (OR=1.205, 95%CI=1.009‒1.440, P=0.040), and parental myopia (OR=2.611, 95%CI=2.157‒3.160, P<0.001) were associated with myopia among the primary and middle school students in the industrial zone of Jiading District. ConclusionThe detection rate of myopia among students in Jiading District was relatively high. More attention should be paid to the effect of school desks and chairs’ adjustment frequency, the length of time spent on extracurricular tutorial classes for main courses, electronic screen exposure time on students’ vision, so as to prevent and slow down the occurrence and development of myopia.
