ObjectiveTo explore the clinical efficacy of Juanbitang hot compress pack combined with intensive rehabilitation training in stroke patients with hemiplegia. MethodsA total of 80 stroke patients with hemiplegia were selected and assigned into a control group （40 cases） and an observation group （40 cases） according to the random number table method. The control group received conventional rehabilitation training and nursing intervention，while the observation group was additionally treated with Juanbitang hot compress pack. The two groups were compared in terms of the neurological function （national institute of health stroke scale score，NIHSS score），muscle strength，motor function （fugl-meyer assessment scale score，FMA score），daily living activity （modified barthel index，MBI），balance ability （berg balance scale score，BBS score），trunk control ability （Sheikh Trunk Control Test score，Sheikh TCT score），and homocysteine （Hcy） level before and after treatment. ResultsAfter treatment，the observation group had lower NIHSS score and Hcy level than the control group （P<0.05）. The total response rate of the observation group （97.50%） was higher than that of the control group （77.50%）. The scores of upper limb and lower limb FMA，MBI，BBS，and Sheikh TCT in the observation group were all higher than those in the control group （P<0.05）. ConclusionThe application of Juanbitang hot compress pack combined with rehabilitation training can effectively improve the neurological function，muscle strength，motor function，daily living ability，balance ability，and trunk control ability and reduce the Hcy level in stroke patients with hemiplegia，demonstrating enhanced clinical efficacy.

ObjectiveTo investigate the patterns of chronic disease comorbidity among permanent elderly residents in Xuhui District of Shanghai, and to analyze the impact of different comorbidity patterns on the elderly’s ability to perform activities of daily living. MethodsBased on data from the 2015 and 2021 Surveys on Health Status and Health Service Utilization among Permanent Residents in Xuhui District of Shanghai, the study included permanent residents who fully participated in both surveys, were aged 60 years or older at the 2015 survey, self-reported having a chronic disease, and reported no significant changes in their chronic disease status between the two surveys. A prospective cohort study design was adopted, using the 2015 data as the baseline and the 2021 survey data as follow-up data. Physical examinations and questionnaire surveys were conducted by the Shanghai Xuhui District Center for Disease Control and Prevention in the subdistricts and towns within the jurisdiction from April to July in both 2015 and 2021. Latent class analysis (LCA) was used to classify comorbidity patterns across 11 types of chronic diseases. The smaller the values of the Akaike information criterion (AIC), the Bayesian information criterion (BIC), and the sample-corrected Bayesian information criterion (aBIC), the better the model fits. The Barthel index (BI) and the Lawton and Brody Instrumental Activities of Daily Living Scale (LB-IADL) were used to assess the participants’ activities of daily living (ADL) and instrumental activities of daily living (IADL). Multiple linear regression and multivariate logistic regression models were used to analyze the association between different comorbidity patterns and ADL and IADL. ResultsA total of 1 608 study participants were enrolled. Among them, 671 (41.73%) self-reported having no chronic diseases. The prevalence of 11 types of chronic diseases was as follows: hypertension in 743 participants (46.21%), heart disease in 148 participants (9.20%), cerebrovascular disease in 37 participants (2.30%), diabetes or abnormal blood glucose in 310 participants (19.28%), other endocrine system diseases (non-diabetic) in 39 participants (2.43%), malignant tumors in 37 participants (2.30%), chronic lung disease in 16 participants (1.00%), gout in 8 participants (0.50%), musculoskeletal disorders in 34 participants (2.11%), gastric or digestive system diseases in 27 participants (1.68%), and dyslipidemia in 15 participants (0.93%). LCA was used to classify comorbidity patterns of chronic diseases among older adults into 1 to 9 latent category combinations. Model 5 (i.e., 5 latent categories) had the lowest BIC (7 112.69) and aBIC (6 909.38), with a relatively low AIC (6 768.20), indicating the best model fit; thus, five latent categories represented the optimal combination in this study. The five latent categories (and their respective proportions of study participants) were the healthy control group (41.73%), the hypertension group (31.28%), the diabetes-hypertension group (19.28%), the severe illness group (5.29%), and the other metabolic diseases group (2.43%). According to multiple linear regression analyses, compared with the healthy control group, the diabetes-hypertension group had significantly lower BI-20 scores (b=-0.952, 95%CI: -1.317‒ -0.587, P<0.001) and lower IADL scores (b=-0.744, 95%CI: -0.999‒ -0.489, P<0.001); the severe illness group (b=-0.644, 95%CI: -1.072‒ -0.217, P=0.003) and the hypertension group (b=-0.344, 95%CI: -0.562‒ -0.125, P=0.002) had lower IADL scores. According to multivariate logistic regression analyses, compared with the healthy control group, older adults in the diabetes-hypertension group had a higher risk of disability (OR=2.835, 95%CI: 1.392‒5.774), impaired ADL function (OR=2.470, 95%CI: 1.637‒3.726), and impaired IADL function (OR=1.739, 95%CI: 1.264‒2.392); older adults in the severe illness group had a higher risk of impaired ADL function (OR=2.206, 95%CI: 1.171‒4.155). ConclusionAmong the elderly participating in the Survey on Health Status and Health Service Utilization of Permanent Residents in Xuhui District of Shanghai, diabetes-hypertension is one of the key chronic disease comorbidity combinations and has adverse effects on both ADL and IADL. Community health management should prioritize the elderly with diabetes-hypertension comorbidity, and strengthen early screening and comprehensive interventions to slow the decline in ADL and IADL.

Doxorubicin (Dox) is an anthracycline drug widely applied in various malignancies. However, the fatal cardiotoxicity induced by Dox limits its clinical application. Post-transcriptional protein modification via ubiquitination/deubiquitination in cardiomyocytes mediates the pathophysiological process in Dox-induced cardiotoxicity (DIC). In this study, we aimed to clarify the regulatory role and mechanism of a deubiquitinating enzyme, ubiquitin-specific peptidase 13 (USP13), in DIC. RNA-seq analysis and experimental examinations identified that cardiomyocyte-derived USP13 positively correlated with DIC. Mice with cardiac-specific deletion of USP13 were subjected to Dox modeling. Adeno-associated virus serotype 9 (AAV9) carrying cTNT promoter was constructed to overexpress USP13 in mouse heart tissues. Cardiomyocyte-specific knockout of USP13 exacerbated DIC, while its overexpression mitigated DIC in mice. Mechanistically, USP13 deubiquitinates the stimulator of interferon genes (STING) and promotes the autolysosome-related degradation of STING, subsequently alleviating cardiomyocyte inflammation and death. Our study suggests that USP13 serves a cardioprotective role in DIC and indicates USP13 as a potential therapeutic target for DIC treatment.

Metastasis serves as an indicator of malignancy and is a biological characteristic of carcinomas. Epithelial-mesenchymal transition (EMT) plays a key role in the promotion of tumor invasion and metastasis and in the enhancement of tumor cell aggressiveness. Prostaglandin E synthase 3 (p23) is a cochaperone for heat shock protein 90 (HSP90). Our previous study showed that p23 is an HSP90-independent transcription factor in cancer-associated inflammation. The effect and mechanism of action of p23 on lung cancer metastasis are tested in this study. By utilizing cell models in vitro and mouse tail vein metastasis models in vivo, the results provide solid evidence that p23 is critical for promoting lung cancer metastases by regulating downstream CXCL1 expression. Rather than acting independently, p23 forms a complex with RNA-binding motif protein 14 (RBM14) to facilitate EMT progression in lung cancer. Therefore, our study provides evidence for the potential role of the RBM14-p23-CXCL1-EMT axis in the metastasis of lung cancer.

Objective To observe the effects of four different modeling method on the hypothalamus-pituitary-adrenal(HPA)axis,blood rheology,platelet aggregation rate,and myocardial ischemia in rats,and to provide new ideas for the establishment of a rat model of"double heart"disease in line with clinical diagnosis and treatment characteristics.Methods Sixty-nine male Sprague-Dawley rats were divided randomly into a Control group(unstimulated),chronic unpredictable mild stimulation(CUMS)group,isoproterenol(ISO)group(intraperitoneal injection of ISO),high-fat diet(HFD)group(fed high-fat chow),and composite model(CUMS+ISO+HFD)group(n=12 rats in the Control and HFD groups;n=15 rats in the other three groups,respectively).Modeling procedures were carried out for a total of 8 weeks,with ISO injection started from week 6 of the experiment for a total of 3 weeks.At the end of modeling,rats in each group were subjected to absent-field and sugar-water preference behavioral tests.Electrocardiography(ECG)was performed to observe changes in ECG lead Ⅱ in each group.Serum levels of adrenocorticotropic hormone(ACTH),cortisol(Cor),corticosterone(CORT),endothelin-1(ET-1),and soluble intercellular adhesion molecule-1(sICAM-1)were detected by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay.Myocardial histopathological changes were detected by hematoxylin/eosin(HE)staining.Serum total cholesterol(TC),triglycerides(TG),low-density lipoprotein cholesterol(LDL-C),and high-density lipoprotein cholesterol(HDL-C)were measured using an enzyme labeling instrument.Whole-blood high-cut viscosity(200 V/S),whole-blood low-cut viscosity(10 I/S),plasma viscosity,and fibrinogen were assessed using an automatic blood rheology analyzer.The maximum platelet aggregation rate(MAR)and average platelet aggregation rate(AAR)induced by arachidonic acid and adenosine diphosphate were detected using a whole-blood platelet aggregometer.Results Compared with the Control group,all four model groups had significantly lower absenteeism distance and number of entries into the central region in the absent-field test,and a lower sugar-water preference ratio(P＜0.01).ECG revealed ST-segment elevation in the ISO and CUMS+ISO+HFD groups,tachycardia in the CUMS group,and mild ST-segment elevation in the HFD.Serum ACTH,Cor,CORT,ET-1,and sICAM-1 were all significantly elevated in the four model groups(P＜0.01).HE staining showed that myocardial tissue was severely damaged in rats in the ISO and CUMS+ISO+HFD groups,with pathological changes such as localized fibrosis and inflammatory infiltration of the myocardium,while mild cardiomyocyte disarrangement and fracture was seen in the CUMS and HFD groups.Rats in the HFD group had increased serum TC and LDL(P＜0.01)and decreased HDL contents(P＜0.01).Compared with the Control group,whole-blood high-cut viscosity(200 V/S),whole-blood low-cut viscosity(10 I/S),plasma viscosity,and fibrinogen were all increased in the CUMS,HFD,and CUMS+ISO+HFD groups(P＜0.01,P＜0.05),while whole blood high-cut viscosity(200 V/S),whole blood low-cut viscosity(10 I/S),plasma viscosity,and fibrinogen levels were decreased in rats in the ISO group(P＜0.01,P＜0.05).MAR and AAR were significantly higher in rats in the CUMS,HFD,and CUMS+ISO+HFD groups(P＜0.01),while the platelet aggregation rate was decreased in the ISO group compared with the Control group(P＜0.01,P＜0.05).Conclusions These result showed that the rat CUMS+ISO+HFD model better reflected the complexity of clinical double heart disease than the other three models.

ObjectiveTo investigate the prevalence and influencing factors of overweight， obesity and central obesity among elderly residents in Xuhui District， and to analyze the epidemiological status of central obesity in elderly people with different body mass indexes. MethodsThe third round of health status and health service utilization monitoring data in Xuhui District was used. The information collected from questionnaire survey and physical examination were analyzed. SPSS 20.0 software was used for χ² test， trend χ² test and multinominal logistic regression analysis. Results5 096 survey subjects were included. The prevalence of overweight， general obesity， and central obesity in the residents aged 60 and above in Xuhui District were 34.3%， 6.5%， and 29.2%， respectively. There was gender difference in the rates of overweight， obesity， and central obesity among the residents. The overweight and central obesity rates in males were higher than those in females， while the obesity rate was lower than that in females （P<0.05）. Multinominal logistic regression analysis showed that in comparison with the normal weight non-central obesity group drinking only at party （OR=1.729， 95%CI： 1.184‒2.525）， and hypertension （OR=1.637， 95%CI： 1.305‒2.053）， were highly associated with normal weight with central obesity. Aged 60‒ years （OR=1.589， 95%CI： 1.190‒2.120）， aged 70‒ years （OR=1.763， 95%CI： 1.327‒2.342）， male （OR=1.379， 95%CI： 1.134‒1.676）， hypertension （OR=2.231， 95%CI： 1.878‒2.649）， former smokers （OR=1.437， 95%CI： 1.027‒2.011）， drinking at party only （OR=1.491， 95%CI： 1.107‒2.006）， and drinking ≥3 times per week （OR=1.611， 95%CI： 1.116‒2.325）， were highly associated with overweight combined with central obesity. Aged 60‒ years （OR=3.817， 95%CI： 2.251‒6.474）， aged 70‒ years （OR=3.084， 95%CI： 1.838‒5.175）， hypertension （OR=3.683， 95%CI： 2.753‒4.929）， diabetes （OR=2.085， 95%CI： 1.511‒2.878）， former smokers （OR=1.835， 95%CI： 1.043‒3.226）， were highly associated with compound obesity. Central obesity was found in the elderly residents with different BMI categories， and the rate of central obesity increased with the increase of BMI grade. ConclusionThe prevalence of overweight， obesity and central obesity among the elderly aged 60 years and above in Xuhui District is not optimistic. Attention should be paid to the elderly under 80 years old who are with hypertension and/or diabetes， alcohol consumption， low educational level and not doing physical exercise. Especially for the central obesity population with normal BMI， measures should be taken to prevent and intervene the occurrence of obesity and related diseases.

Objective:To investigate the serum metabolites and their metabolic characteristics of patients with optic neuritis.Methods:Case-control study. From January 2021 to January 2022, 9 serum specimens of diagnosed patients with optic neuritis were collected in Department of Neurology from Beijing Tongren Hospital and 9 healthy subjects as the control. Among them, there were 5 females and 4 males in the optic neuritis group, aged (35.8±12.9) years; there were 5 females and 4 males in the healthy control group, aged (32.6±8.6) years. Liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry was used to detect metabolites in serum of healthy control and patients with optic neuritis. The principal component analysis (PCA) and orthogonal partial least-squares discriminination analysis (OPLS-DA) were used to analyze the differential metabolites . The variable importance projection value of OPLS-DA model and the P value of t-test was applied to find the different metabolites. Results:Thirty-seven metabolites were finally identified from serum samples. Four metabolites with variable important in projection (VIP) values larger than 1 and P values less than 0.05 were teased out, three metabolites, LysoPC (P-16∶0), LysoPC (16∶0), LysoPC (P-18∶0) belonge to phospholipid and one metabolite was L-Threonine, they were all down-regulated. The area under curve were 0.951, 0.889, 0.963 and 0.944, respectively. Conclusion:Based on metabonomic analysis, some metabolites in serum have changed, which can provide basis for biomarkers screening of optic neuritis.
