Objective To compare the serum levels of interleukin(IL)‐1β,IL‐6 ,tumor necrosis factor alpha(TNF‐α) and inter‐feron gamma(IFN‐γ) in patients with Parkinson′s disease(PD) and healthy controls .To analyze the correlations of serum inflamma‐tory factors with disease duration and severity .Methods Peripheral blood samples were collected from 56 PD patients and 120 healthy controls .Serum levels of IL‐1β,IL‐6 ,TNF‐αand IFN‐γwere measured using highly sensitive enzyme linked immunosorbent assay(ELISA) kits .Results Serum levels of IL‐1β,IL‐6 ,TNF‐α were significantly higher in PD patients than in healthy controls (all P<0 .01) ,serum levels of IFN‐γ were not significantly different between PD patients and healthy controls (P=0 .86) .Serum levels of these inflammatory cytokines were not significantly correlated with the disease ,duration ,Hoen & Yahr ,Schwab & Eng‐land scores(P>0 .05) .Conclusion Our results indicate that serum inflammatory factors are altered in PD patients .However ,serum inflammatory factors were not correlated with disease duration and severity .

Objective To analyze the effects of immediate multi-vessel percutaneous coronary inter-vention(MV-PCI)and staged vascular intervention(Staged-PCI,immediate PCI for culprit-only followed by a delayed treatment of all other lesions)on the prognosis in elderly patients with acute ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction(STEMI).Methods A total of 417 elderly acute STEMI patients who underwent PCI in Baoding First Central hospital from January 2021 to June 2023 were enrolled,and according to different treatment strategies,they were divided into MV-PCI group(87 cases)and Staged-PCI group(330 cases).A propensity score matching(PSM)model was established based on baseline data of the two groups,there were 84 cases in each group.During a mean follow-up period of 13.5 months,with the occurrence of main adverse cardi-ovascular and cerebrovascular events(MACCE)as endpoint,the incidence of MACCE was com-pared between the two groups after PSM.Cox proportional hazard regression model was used to analyze the risk factors of MACCE.Results Before PSM,there were significant differences be-tween the two groups in terms of age,proportions of hypertension,diabetes and hyperlipidemia,family history,stroke history,peripheral artery disease,preoperative SBP,lesion vessels(such as left anterior descending branch and left circumflex branch),and number of non-diseased vessels(P＜0.05).Kaplan-Meier survival curve showed that the incidences of MACCE and all-cause mor-tality were significantly lower in the MV-PCI group than the Staged PCI group(Plog rank＜0.05).Multivariate Cox proportional hazard regression model showed that MV-PCI was a protective prognostic factor for MACCE(HR=0.263,95％CI:0.105-0.659,P=0.004)and all-cause death(HR=0.236,95％CI:0.007-0.722,P=0.016).Conclusion MV-PCI can significantly improve the prognosis of elderly patients with acute STEMI with multivessel disease.

The standardization study on disease names in traditional Chinese medicine （TCM） is a key and challenging aspect of the modernization of TCM. TCM disease names refer to a symbolic system established by traditional medicine for the rational definition and denotation of physical and mental distress， characterized by temporal and spatial features， clinical features， and cultural traits. These features are both the characteristics of TCM disease names and the root causes of issues such as weakened application， standardization difficulties， and lack of methodology. In response to these problems， we propose a research idea for TCM disease names. Firstly， appropriate samples should be selected based on application needs， and by constructing models， the alignment of the TCM disease names' refe-rence system in content and form should be facilitated to address the issue of weakened application. Secondly， studies on semantics， pragmatics， and clinical positioning should be conducted simultaneously to promote the empi-rical nature of linguistic symbols and strengthen the clinical features of TCM disease names. Furthermore， research on methodology should be intensified. By fully referencing traditional naming methods and the nomenclature of western scientific fields and theoretically examining complex systems， the intrinsic relationship between classification systems and naming methods should be clarified， thereby completing the standardization study of the construction process of the TCM disease names reference system.

Objective: To study the difference expression and diagnostic value of ribosomal protein L5 (RPL5) in papillary thyroid carcinoma (PTC) of children and adults. Methods: Realtime-PCR was performed to detect the expression of RPL5 in 22 PTC tissues and 13 pericarcinous tissues. Receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve and Youden's index were used to evaluate the diagnostic value of RPL5 in PTC of children and adults. Results: The expression of RPL5 in PTC tissues was higher than in pericarcinous tissues. The area under curve (AUC) was 0.820 (P=0.001), and Youden′s index was 0.568. The expression of RPL5 in PTC of adults was higher than children (P<0.05). The AUC and Youden's index were respectively 0.721 (P=0.069) and 0.414 in children, whereas being respectively 0.896 (P=0.0005) and 0.709 in adults. RPL5 in diagnosis of PTC of adults was better than CK19, Galectin-3 and TPO, which are commonly used for the pathologic diagnosis of PTC. Conclusion The expression of RPL5 in PTC is higher than pericarcinous tissues, and its expression in PTC of adults is higher than children. Furthermore, PTC is a potential indicator for diagnosis of PTC.
