Objective:To explore the impact of a three-dimensional management based on a perinatal one-day clinic on pregnancy outcomes in overweight and obese pregnant women.Methods:It was a randomized controlled trial. A simple random sampling method was used to select 460 singleton pregnant women with a pre-pregnancy body mass index≥24 kg/m2 who had regular prenatal check-ups at the Obstetrics and Gynecology Center of the Third Affiliated Hospital of Chongqing Medical University from June 1, 2018, to December 31, 2022. The women were randomly divided into an experimental group and a control group (230 cases each) using a computer-generated random number table. The control group received regular prenatal check-ups according to the pregnancy care guidelines (once every 4 weeks during mid-pregnancy, once every 2 weeks during late pregnancy, with additional frequency as needed based on the condition). The control group also received a one-time body composition analysis and dietary guidance from a nutritionist at the time of registration. In addition to the control group′s interventions, the experimental group received three-dimensional management based on a perinatal one-day clinic. It included an intensive one-day clinic session, a traditional plus internet-based re-education model (as needed based on the condition), individualized guidance from obstetrics and clinical nutrition clinics (once every 2 weeks), a free body composition test at 24 weeks of pregnancy, and weekly WeChat group push of health care knowledge during pregnancy. A total of 55 cases dropped out, leaving 200 cases in the experimental group and 205 cases in the control group for analysis. General information, pregnancy-related, and postpartum indicators were collected in the two groups. The effect of three-dimensional management based on a perinatal one-day clinic on pregnancy outcomes in overweight and obese pregnant women was analyzed using t-tests and chi-square tests. Results:There was no significant differences in baseline age, pre-pregnancy body mass index, initial blood glucose, initial glycated hemoglobin, or initial gestational age between the two groups (all P>0.05). The experimental group showed significantly lower gestational weight gain, neonatal weight, and proportion of excessive pregnancy weight gain compared to those in the control group [(11.41±5.23) vs (13.22±4.51) kg, (3 352.1±465.3) vs (3 489.5±464.0) g, 48.00% vs 73.17%] (all P<0.05). There were no significant differences in hospitalization days, gestational age at delivery, incidence of gestational diabetes, incidence of hypertensive disorders of pregnancy, incidence of premature rupture of membranes, incidence of preterm birth, incidence of macrosomia, vaginal delivery rate and rate of neonatal transfer to the pediatric department between the two groups (all P>0.05). Conclusion:Early intervention with the three-dimensional management based on the one-day perinatal clinic can effectively control gestational weight gain and neonatal weight in overweight and obese pregnant women.

AIM:To investigate the therapeutic effects and potential mechanism of pachymic acid(PA)on li-popolysaccharide(LPS)-induced acute kidney injury(AKI)in mice.METHODS:(1)Genes related to AKI were screened using the DAVID database.Core genes were identified by intersecting related genes and analyzed using Cyto-scape software.Gene Ontology(GO)and Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes(KEGG)analyses were performed through the DAVID database for the cross-targets.Molecular docking and activity assays were conducted on the primary core targets.(2)A total of 100 C57BL/6J mice were randomly divided into five groups:normal control(NC),model(LPS),solvent control(LPS+DMSO),and treatment groups(LPS+PA-10 and LPS+PA-20),with 20 mice in each group.The LPS-AKI model was established by intraperitoneal injection of 18 mg/kg LPS.The treatment groups received 10 mg/kg and 20 mg/kg PA,respectively,and the solvent control group was administered an equivalent dose of DMSO.Mice were euthanized 24 h after injection.Serum was collected for biochemical analysis,and Western blot was used to detect neutro-phil gelatinase-associated lipocalin(NGAL),kidney injury molecule-1(KIM-1),caspase-3,cleaved caspase-3,interleu-kin-1β(IL-1β),and monocyte chemoattractant protein-1(MCP-1)protein expression.RT-qPCR was employed to detect inflammatory factor mRNA levels.Molecular docking was used to simulate the optimal binding site of PA to caspase-3.En-zyme activity assays were performed to assess caspase protein activity,and renal lesions were observed via hematoxylin and eosin(HE)staining.Apoptosis was detected by TUNEL staining.RESULTS:(1)Thirty-one potential targets of PA against AKI were identified through network pharmacology.GO and KEGG enrichment analyses indicated that these tar-gets were primarily involved in immune response,inflammatory processes,apoptosis and survival,angiogenesis and hemo-dynamics,oxidative stress,and endoplasmic reticulum stress.Key targets included CASP3(caspase-3),PTGS2,BCL2,CCL2,and CYP219.(2)PA treatment improved renal function and reduced tubular epithelial injury.It significantly de-creased NGAL,KIM-1,and cleaved caspase-3 protein levels,as well as inflammatory factors TNF-α,IL-1β,and MCP-1 mRNA and protein expression.PA also reduced apoptosis of renal tubular epithelial cells.Enzyme activity assays and mo-lecular docking revealed that PA exerted its anti-apoptotic effect by directly binding to caspase-3,thereby inhibiting its ac-tivation by caspase-8.CONCLUSION:PA demonstrated a therapeutic effect in LPS-AKI,potentially through the inhibi-tion of inflammatory factor synthesis and release,as well as the inhibition of caspase-3 activation by caspase-8,reducing apoptosis in renal tubular epithelial cells.

Objective To explore the relationship between the head injury criterion(HIC)values in anterior-posterior(AP)collisions and lateral-medial(LM)collisions.Methods A total of 102 male SD rats were randomly divided into a control group of 0 m(6 rats),4 AP groups(12 rats/group)and 4 LM groups(12 rats/group).After adaptive training,the classical Marmarou model was used to execute the brain AP and LM collisions under a series of different height impacts,and the HIC values were calculated.The experimental group data of the walk-pole test and grip strength test were collected at 24 hours before and after injury,and the data of the proportion of hemorrhage in the corpus callosum and pyramidal tracts were collected at 24 hours after injury.Results As the collision heights increased in both AP and LM groups,there were positive correlations with changes in WP test time and peak GS,and corresponding increases in the proportion of hemorrhage in the cc and py.According to the mathematical relationships between the comprehensive injury degrees and HIC values,it was found that at the same injury degree,LM-HIC value was less than AP-HIC value.A mathematical relationship between AP-HIC and LM-HIC was fitted based on the comprehensive injury degrees.At the same HIC,LM group experienced more severe injuries,and AP group was more tolerant to head collision.Conclusion The injury severity in LM group is greater than that of AP group at the same HIC.Preliminary results show there is a linear mathematical relationship between AP-HIC and LM-HIC.These results can be expected to expand the application scope of HIC and achieve an accurate assessment of the LM collision severity.

BACKGROUND: The association of systemic inflammatory response index (SIRI) with prognosis of coronary artery disease (CAD) patients has never been investigated in a large sample with long-term follow-up. This study aimed to explore the association of SIRI with all-cause and cause-specific mortality in a nationally representative sample of CAD patients from United States. METHODS: A total of 3386 participants with CAD from the National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (NHANES) 1999-2018 were included in this study. Cox proportional hazards model, restricted cubic spline (RCS), and receiver operating characteristic curve (ROC) were performed to investigate the association of SIRI with all-cause and cause-specific mortality. Piece-wise linear regression and sensitivity analyses were also performed. RESULTS: During a median follow-up of 7.7 years, 1454 all-cause mortality occurred. After adjusting for confounding factors, higher lnSIRI was significantly associated with higher risk of all-cause (HR = 1.16, 95% CI: 1.09-1.23) and CVD mortality (HR = 1.17, 95% CI: 1.05-1.30) but not cancer mortality (HR = 1.17, 95% CI: 0.99-1.38). The associations of SIRI with all-cause and CVD mortality were detected as J-shaped with threshold values of 1.05935 and 1.122946 for SIRI, respectively. ROC curves showed that lnSIRI had robust predictive effect both in short and long terms. CONCLUSIONS SIRI was independently associated with all-cause and CVD mortality, and the dose-response relationship was J-shaped. SIRI might serve as a valid predictor for all-cause and CVD mortality both in the short and long terms.

Objective To understand the current situation of healthcare-associated infection(HAI)in China,pro-vide data support and decision-making basis for formulating scientific and effective strategies for HAI prevention and control.Methods A nationwide cross-sectional survey on HAI was conducted among various types and levels of medical institutions in China according to a unified protocol of bedside surveys and case investigations.Results In 2024,a total of 5 736 medical institutions and 2 751 765 patients were surveyed.Among them,34 889 HAI cases were identified,with a prevalence rate of 1.27％.The number of HAI episodes was 38 032,and case prevalence rate was 1.38％.The prevalence rate of HAI in medical institutions in different regions of China ranged from 0.66％to 2.35％.Among medical institutions of different scales,those with a bed capacity of ≥900 had the high-est incidence of HAI,reaching 1.65％.The most common infection site was the lower respiratory tract(44.66％),followed by the urinary tract(12.94％),surgical site(9.32％),upper respiratory tract(7.02％),and bloodstream infection(5.78％).The top 3 departments with the highest HAI rates were the general intensive care unit(10.02％),department of neurosurgery(5.51％),and department(group)of hematology(5.34％).A total of 23 238 strains of HAI pathogens were detected,with 10 714 strains(46.10％)from lower respiratory tract speci-mens.The top 5 detected strains were Klebsiella pneumoniae(14.76％),Pseudomonas aeruginosa(13.33％),Escherichia coli(12.79％),Acinetobacter baumannii(9.23％),and Staphylococcus aureus(7.88％).231 944 pa-tients underwent class Ⅰ incision surgery were monitored,with 1 647 cases experienced surgical site infection,and the prevalence rate of surgical site infection was 0.71％.The number of patients who should undergo pathogen de-tection(patients receiving therapeutic and therapeutic combined prophylactic antimicrobial agents)was 715 179,while the actual number was 480 492,with a pathogen detection rate of 67.18％.425 225 patients received patho-genic detection before treatment,with a detection rate of 59.46％.Conclusion The overall HAI prevalence in Chi-na is lower,showing disparities among medical institutions of different regions and scales.Therefore,precise imple-mentation of measures is necessary for HAI prevention and control,with a focus on high-risk institutions and high-risk departments,key areas,and critical procedures.All levels of medical institutions should continuously reduce the incidence of HAI by strengthening monitoring,standardizing the use of antimicrobial agents,and reinforcing basic HAI prevention and control measures.

Objective:To explore the impact of a three-dimensional management based on a perinatal one-day clinic on pregnancy outcomes in overweight and obese pregnant women.Methods:It was a randomized controlled trial. A simple random sampling method was used to select 460 singleton pregnant women with a pre-pregnancy body mass index≥24 kg/m2 who had regular prenatal check-ups at the Obstetrics and Gynecology Center of the Third Affiliated Hospital of Chongqing Medical University from June 1, 2018, to December 31, 2022. The women were randomly divided into an experimental group and a control group (230 cases each) using a computer-generated random number table. The control group received regular prenatal check-ups according to the pregnancy care guidelines (once every 4 weeks during mid-pregnancy, once every 2 weeks during late pregnancy, with additional frequency as needed based on the condition). The control group also received a one-time body composition analysis and dietary guidance from a nutritionist at the time of registration. In addition to the control group′s interventions, the experimental group received three-dimensional management based on a perinatal one-day clinic. It included an intensive one-day clinic session, a traditional plus internet-based re-education model (as needed based on the condition), individualized guidance from obstetrics and clinical nutrition clinics (once every 2 weeks), a free body composition test at 24 weeks of pregnancy, and weekly WeChat group push of health care knowledge during pregnancy. A total of 55 cases dropped out, leaving 200 cases in the experimental group and 205 cases in the control group for analysis. General information, pregnancy-related, and postpartum indicators were collected in the two groups. The effect of three-dimensional management based on a perinatal one-day clinic on pregnancy outcomes in overweight and obese pregnant women was analyzed using t-tests and chi-square tests. Results:There was no significant differences in baseline age, pre-pregnancy body mass index, initial blood glucose, initial glycated hemoglobin, or initial gestational age between the two groups (all P>0.05). The experimental group showed significantly lower gestational weight gain, neonatal weight, and proportion of excessive pregnancy weight gain compared to those in the control group [(11.41±5.23) vs (13.22±4.51) kg, (3 352.1±465.3) vs (3 489.5±464.0) g, 48.00% vs 73.17%] (all P<0.05). There were no significant differences in hospitalization days, gestational age at delivery, incidence of gestational diabetes, incidence of hypertensive disorders of pregnancy, incidence of premature rupture of membranes, incidence of preterm birth, incidence of macrosomia, vaginal delivery rate and rate of neonatal transfer to the pediatric department between the two groups (all P>0.05). Conclusion:Early intervention with the three-dimensional management based on the one-day perinatal clinic can effectively control gestational weight gain and neonatal weight in overweight and obese pregnant women.

Inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) is characterized by chronic relapsing intestinal inflammation and encompasses ulcerative colitis (UC) and Crohn's disease (CD). IBD has emerged as a global healthcare problem. Clinically efficacious therapeutic agents are deficient. This study concentrates on models of ulcerative colitis with the objective of discovering novel therapeutic strategies. Previous investigations have established that schisandrin A demonstrates anti-inflammatory effects in vitro, concurrently enhancing the transcriptional activity of farnesoid X receptor (FXR). FXR inversely modulates the transcriptional activity of NF-κB, which has an important role in regulating inflammatory responses. Consequently, the current study was to explore the safeguarding influence of schisandrin A on ulcerative colitis and delineate the mechanism by which it regulates this effect through the FXR signaling pathway. The effect of schisandrin A on the mRNA levels of inflammatory factors was evaluated in RAW264.7 cells. The dual luciferase reporter gene assay was used to verify the relationship between schisandrin A and FXR targeting. The animal experiments were performed in accordance with the regulations of the Animal Ethics Committee of Shanghai University of Traditional Chinese Medicine (approval No. PZSHUTCM2304250005). Acute ulcerative colitis was induced in wild-type or FXR knockout C57BL/6 mice by drinking 3% dextran sodium sulfate (DSS) for 7 days, and schisandrin A was administered via gavage for a continuous treatment period of 7 days. The body weight and faecal were monitored daily. The mRNA levels of inflammatory factors in colon tissue and FXR target genes were measured by RT-qPCR. The findings revealed that schisandrin A, in vitro, impeded the lipopolysaccharide (LPS)-induced elevation in mRNA levels of inflammatory factors and schisandrin A could augment transcriptional activity of FXR. In wild-type mice, schisandrin A significantly improved weight loss, colon shortening, loose stools and blood in stools in mice with acute ulcerative colitis, and schisandrin A significantly reduced the expression of pro-inflammatory factors genes and significantly increased the expression of FXR target genes in colon tissues. In FXR knockout mice, the administration of schisandrin A failed to yield ameliorative effect on acute ulcerative colitis in mice. In conclusion, schisandrin A can reduce intestinal inflammation through the FXR signaling pathway to alleviate acute ulcerative colitis in mice. Implications arise that Schisandra lignans could serve as lead compounds for drug development aimed at inflammatory bowel disease.
