Objective To construct a prediction model for the population with hypertension and diabetes to assess the risk of chronic kidney disease (CKD), and to provide a scientific basis for formulating targeted CKD prevention and control measures. Methods Based on physical examination data from community residents aged 60 years and above in Nanjing in 2022, 10 221 patients with hypertension and diabetes were selected as the study subjects. Variables associated with CKD prevalence were screened using univariate analysis, and further variable selection was performed using LASSO regression. Finally, a CKD risk prediction model was constructed based on logistic regression. The model's performance was evaluated using the ROC curve and calibration curve. Results The prevalence rate of CKD in the study population was 22.71%, with a mean age of 71.66 years. LASSO regression identified seven variables associated with CKD: age, blood urea nitrogen (BUN), hemoglobin, uric acid, triglyceride-glucose (TyG) index, urine protein-to-creatinine ratio (UPCR), and medical insurance type. The final logistic regression model incorporated six variables: age [OR=1.067 (95% CI: 1.058-1.076)], BUN [OR=1.377 (95% CI: 1.338-1.418)], hemoglobin [OR=0.992 (95% CI: 0.989-0.995)], uric acid [OR=1.004 (95% CI: 1.003-1.004)], TyG index [OR=1.445 (95% CI: 1.324-1.577)], and self-payment medical insurance [OR=1.732 (95% CI: 1.542-1.945)]. The model had an AUC of 0.759 (95% CI: 0.747-0.770) and a Brier score of 0.140 (95% CI: 0.136-0.145), indicating good predictive performance. The calibration curve showed good agreement between the predicted risk and the observed value. Conclusion The constructed LASSO-logistic regression risk prediction model in this study can effectively assess the risk of CKD in elderly individuals aged 60 years and above with hypertension and diabetes, providing a basis for early identification of high-risk individuals and the formulation of targeted CKD prevention and control measures.

OBJECTIVE:
To evaluate the differential expression of RNA in blood monocytes in patients with Juvenile idiopathic arthritis (JIA) treated with TNF antagonists (TNFi), and to explore the effect and mechanism of gene expression on the efficacy of JIA.
METHODS:
A total of 29 children with JIA treated with methotrexate (MTX) and TNFi in Guangzhou Women and Children's Medical Center of Guangzhou Medical University from April 2021 to November 2023 were enrolled. After 6 months, the children were divided into two groups according to the treatment effect, i.e., 13 cases in the ineffective group and 16 cases in the effective group, the peripheral blood of the children was collected, the blood mononuclear cells were isolated for transcriptome sequencing, the differentially expressed genes between the groups were analyzed, the signaling pathways and metabolic pathways related to the efficacy of TNFi were analyzed by GO and KEGG enrichment, and the mechanism related to the efficacy of TNFi was explored. This study was approved by Medical Ethics Committee of the Guangzhou Women and Children's Medical Center of Guangzhou Medical University (Ethics No.: 2023-330B00).
RESULTS:
There was a statistically significant difference in the gender and age distribution between the two groups of children (P < 0.05), while no statistically significant differences were observed in disease duration, rheumatoid antibody levels, or JIA subtypes (P > 0.05). After sequencing data quality control and comparison of reference genomes, a total of 18 523 protein-coding genes were identified in all children's samples. A total of 705 differentially expressed genes (DEGs) were identified between the effective group and the invalid group through differential analysis, of which 579 were up-regulated in the effective group and 126 in the inactive group. GO function and KEGG pathway enrichment analysis showed that DEG was significantly enriched in 55 GO entries and 32 KEGG metabolic pathways, which were mainly related to IL-1β production and regulation, cytokine production and regulation, cytokine-cytokine receptor interaction, immune response regulation, and Toll-like receptor signaling pathway.
CONCLUSION
DEG between the effective and ineffective groups of TNFi treatment may be involved in the biological processes such as cytokine production and regulation, cytokine-receptor interaction, and immune response regulation, which will be helpful to predict the efficacy and prognosis of TNFi treatment for JIA.

Objective:To explore the relationship between anxiety status and progestogen level in perimenopausal women and their effects on the pathogenesis of uterine fibroid.Methods:A total of 376 perimenopausal women who visited the Department of Gynecology and Neurology of Nanjing Tongren Hospital affiliated School of Medicine of Southeast University from August 2019 to July 2023 were selected as the study subjects.Based on the and divided into two groups according to the Self-Rating Anxiety Scale(SAS),they were divided into a non-anxiety group(n=202,SAS score<50)and an anxiety group(n=174,SAS score≥50).Additionally,according to the presence or absence of uterine fibroids,they were categorized into a non-uterine fibroid group(n=225)and a uterine fibroid group(n=151).The t test or x2 test was used to compare general demographic and clinical data between the non-uterine fibroid group and the uterine fibroid group.Multivariate logistic regression analysis was used to analyze the correlation between anxiety status,progesterone level,and uterine fibroid risk in perimenopausal women.The bootstrap method was used to analyze whether progesterone level mediate the relationship between anxiety status and uterine fibroid risk.Results:Comparison of baseline data between the non-uterine fibroid group and the uterine fibroid group showed that previous caesarean section,number of abortions,hemoglobin level,neutrophil count,lymphocyte count,and neutrophil-to-lymphocyte ratio(NLR)were not associated with the incidence of uterine fibroid(all P>0.05).In contrast,menstrual period,menstrual cycle,progesterone level,and SAS score were significantly associated with the incidence of uterine fibroid(all P<0.05).Analysis of the effects of different clinical features on the risk of uterine fibroid showed that age,chronic diseases history,and dysmenorrhea history were all significantly associated with the incidence of uterine fibroid in perimenopausal women(all P<0.05).Further,univariate logistic regression analysis showed that age≥55 years,chronic diseases,and dysmenorrhea were significant risk factors for uterine fibroid in perimenopausal women(all P<0.05).These seven significant risk factors(menstrual period,menstrual cycle,progesterone level,SAS score,age,chronic disease history,and dysmenorrhea history)were included in a multivariate logistic regression analysis,which identified SAS score and progesterone level as independent risk factors for uterine fibroid in perimenopausal women.Specifically,SAS score was positively correlated with uterine fibroid risk,while progesterone level was negatively correlated with the risk.Restriction cubic spline analysis showed a nonlinear quantitative response relationship between continuously changing progesterone level and the risk of uterine fibroid(x2=12.315,P<0.001),when progesterone level was≤2.00 ng/mL,the risk of uterine fibroid decreased with the increase of progesterone level(HR=1.014,95%CI:1.006-1.012,P<0.001),and when progesterone level was>2.00 ng/mL,the risk of uterine fibroid stabilized with further increases in progesterone level(HR=1.003,95%CI:0.998-1.002,P=0.001).After further adjusting for a variety of related confounding factors affecting the incidence of uterine fibroid in perimenopausal women,it was found that SAS score was an independent risk factor for predicting the incidence of uterine fibroid in perimenopausal women.Mediation effect analysis revealed that SAS score had a direct effect on the incidence of uterine fibroid(β1=0.202,95%CI:0.124-0.216),and progesterone level partially mediated the effect of SAS score on uterine fibroid risk(β2=0.196,95%CI:0.152-0.207).The total effect value was βtotal=0.398,and the mediating effect accounted for 49.25%of the total effect.Conclusion:There was an independent correlation between anxiety status and progestogen level in perimenopausal women,anxiety status was a risk factor for the development of uterine fibroids,while progestogen levelwas a protective factor.

Since the birth of the first "test-tube baby" in Chinese mainland in 1988, assisted reproductive technology (ART) in China has matured significantly. The number of ART cycles has surpassed one million, and the number of assisted reproductive institutions and practitioners has attained a significant scale, contributing to the establishment of a fertility-friendly society. However, due to the complexity of the ART process, the diversity of personnel backgrounds, and the profound impact of any error that may occur, there is an urgent need to establish an efficient and effective safety management model for error prevention. This paper aims to outline the key processes and steps involved in the implementation of ART, explore control measures for these critical processes, and delve into error prevention strategies for gamete and embryo laboratories through the creation and utilization of a "gamete safety checklist".
