Aim To study whether intravenous injec-tion of miR-129-3p mimetic(agomir)can resist bone loss caused by hind limb disuse,and to provide new i-deas for preventing bone loss in microgravity environ-ment.Methods Forty-eight C57BL/6J male mice were randomly divided into the control group(CON),tail suspension model group(TS),tail suspension+miR-129-3p agomir administration group(miRNA)and tail suspension+miR-129-3p negative sequence agomir control group(NC).The miRNA group was given 4 mg·kg-1 miR-129-3p agomir by intravenous injection into the medial canthus twice a week.The NC agomir group were consistent with those in the miR-129-3p agomir group,and the CON and TS groups were given only equal volumes of normal saline.After four weeks,all mice were sacrificed and samples were collected.Micro-CT scan of femur,three-point femur bending test,serum bone metabolism index detection,oxidative stress index detection and osteogenesis-related protein expression analysis in bone tissue were per-formed.Results After four weeks,the number of tra-becular bone in the TS group was significantly re-duced,and Tb.BMD,Tb.Th,Tb.N,Tb.BS/TV and Tb.BV/TV were significantly lower than those in the CON group(P＜0.01).While Tb.Sp TS group was significantly higher than the CON group(P＜0.05),the maximum load and flexural strength of the femur significantly decreased(P＜0.01),the content of ser-um bone formation index PINP was significantly lower than that of the CON group(P＜0.01),and the con-tent of bone resorption index CTX-I was significantly higher than that of the CON group(P＜0.01),the content of serum oxidative damage indexes 8-iso-PGF2α and 8-OHdG significantly increased(P＜0.01),and the expression of osteogenesis-related pro-teins in bone tissue markedly decreased(P＜0.01).However,the increase or decrease of all indexes in miRNA group was significantly lower than that in TS group.Conclusions miR-129-3p mimetic can signifi-cantly reduce bone loss caused by hind limb disuse.This experiment provides a new idea and method for preventing bone loss in microgravity environment.

This study aims to describe the population and regional distribution characteristics of smoking behavior among adult twins in the China Twin Registry (CNTR), as well as the concordance rates for smoking behavior in monozygotic and dizygotic twins, and estimate the heritability. The study population included adult twins in CNTR who had smoking questionnaire data. A random-effects regression model was used to describe the distribution of smoking behavior among different subgroups based on various characteristics. The concordance of smoking behavior between different zygosity groups was calculated, and heritability was estimated. A total of 28 444 twin pairs were included in this study, with an average age of (36.6±12.0) years. Among male twins, 41.2% were current smokers, while only 1.2% of females smoked. Higher smoking rates were observed among male smokers in the 50-59 age group ( z=23.0, P<0.001), northern regions ( z=2.9, P<0.01), rural areas ( z=-5.2, P<0.001), those who were divorced/widowed ( z=3.8, P<0.001), and first-born twins ( z=-4.3, P<0.001), while lower smoking rates were found in those with higher education ( z=-16.1, P<0.001) and unmarried individuals ( z=-16.0, P<0.001). The smoking concordance rate for male monozygotic twins was 69.6%, significantly higher than the 57.3% concordance rate for dizygotic twins ( χ 2=105.0, P<0.05). The heritability of smoking behavior in male twins was estimated at 28.9% (95% CI: 24.3%-33.4%). Stratified analyses showed differences in heritability across regions and age groups: the heritability in northern regions was 32.6% (95% CI: 27.3%-38.0%), higher than the 21.0% (95% CI: 12.4%-29.5%) observed in southern regions; the highest heritability of 35.1% (95% CI: 26.3%-43.9%) was found in the 18-29 age group, with heritability decreasing with age. In conclusion, the smoking rate and influencing factors in the twin population are similar to those in the general population, with unique characteristics, such as higher smoking rates in first-born twins. Genetic factors have a significant impact on smoking behavior.

Objective To investigate the effects of perioperative blood glucose(BG)levels on postoperative acute kidney injury(AKI)and rehabilitation in diabetic patients with coronary heart disease after coronary artery bypass grafting(CABG).Methods Randomly select data from 142 patients who underwent CABG treatment at The Fuwai Cardiovascular Hospital in Qingdao from January to December 2022,and compare the BG indicators,AKI incidence,cardiac function improvement and quality of life between good control group(n=57)and poor control group(n=85).Results The operation time,ventilator use time,postoperative ICU time,hospital stay time and various BG indexes in the good control group were significantly lower than those in the poor control group(P<0.05 or P<0.01).27 patients(19.01%)developed AKI after surgery,and the incidence of AKI in the good control group was significantly lower than that in the poor control group(10.53%vs 24.71%,P<0.05).After treatment,the cardiac function indexes in both groups were significantly improved compared with those before surgery,and the good control had significantly better cardiac function and quality of life than the poor control(P<0.05).Conclusions The incidence of AKI after CABG in patients with diabetes and coronary heart disease was 19.01%.Good perioperative BG level control can reduce the risk of postoperative AKI and help early postoperative recovery.

BACKGROUND:The relationship between rheumatoid arthritis and coronary atherosclerosis has received extensive attention.Inflammation is related to rheumatoid arthritis and coronary atherosclerosis,indicating that there may be a common pathophysiological pathway between the two diseases.However,observational studies have not yet clarified the causal relationship.OBJECTIVE:To explore whether there is a causal relationship between rheumatoid arthritis and coronary atherosclerosis,as well as the potential causal relationship with 1 400 serum metabolites and 91 inflammatory factors through a Mendelian randomization analysis.METHODS:Coronary atherosclerosis data are from Finngen database,rheumatoid arthritis data are from IEU OpenGWAS database,serum metabolites data are from Canadian Longitudinal Study on Aging,Augsburg Cooperative Health Research and British Twin Project Research,and data of 91 inflammatory proteins are from research published in Nature Immunology in 2023.Mendelian randomization analysis was performed using data from genome-wide association studies,and causal effects were evaluated using inverse variance weighting,MR-Egger regression,weighted median,weighted model,and simple model methods,with inverse variance weighting being the primary analysis method.To enhance robustness,Cochran's Q-test MR-Egger intercept was used for sensitivity analysis.RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:(1)Inverse variance weighting results showed that rheumatoid arthritis was positively correlated with the increased relative risk of coronary atherosclerosis(odds ratio=1.002,95％confidence interval=1.001-1.003,P=0.003).There was no reverse causal relationship between coronary atherosclerosis and rheumatoid arthritis.In addition,96 serum metabolites and 9 inflammatory factors were found to have causal relationships with coronary atherosclerosis.There was a causal relationship between 51 serum metabolites and 7 inflammatory factors and rheumatoid arthritis.(2)This study provided epidemiological evidence between rheumatoid arthritis and coronary atherosclerosis,and emphasized the potential role of serum metabolites and inflammatory factors in the pathogenesis of these diseases.These findings may contribute to the development of new treatment strategies.Due to the limited inclusion of data from Asian populations,most contemporary studies used international databases and European population analyses.By collecting and analyzing the health data of European populations,it is conducive to a better understanding of the effects and potential role of Chinese medicine in Europe,and to further promote the practice of modern integration of Western and Chinese medicine.Meanwhile,through the comparative study with the European databases,it is possible to reveal the genetic differences and susceptibility to diseases among different populations,providing more dimensions and perspectives for global health research.

Objective To explore the effect of classroom pivotal response teaching(CPRT)-based fun-damental motor skills intervention on the motor coordination ability in children with autism spectrum disorder(ASD).Methods Seventeen boys with ASD(aged 5～9 years)were recruited from a leading au-tism rehabilitation center.According to the principle of convenience sampling,the school-age class 3(n=9)was taken as the experimental group,and class 1 and 2(n=8)were chosen as the control group.Before the intervention,there was no significant difference between the two groups in terms of social communication skills.The experimental group was given CPRT-based fundamental motor skills in-tervention 3 times/week,60 minutes/session,for 9 weeks,while the control group did not receive the intervention.Before and after the intervention,as well as 4 weeks after the intervention,both groups were evaluated their motor coordination skills(manual dexterity,aiming and catching,and balance)us-ing the movement assessment battery for children(Movement-ABC).Repeated measures ANOVA was used to compare the differences in the total Movement-ABC scores and scores across its subdomains between the experimental group and the control group during different intervention periods.Results(1)After the intervention,the scores of experimental group were significantly higher than the control group in total motor skills,aiming and catching,and balance[F(1,15)=14.308,P<0.01;F(1,15)=7.244,P<0.05;F(1,15)=9.362,P<0.01].Moreover,4 weeks after the intervention,the scores of the former group were also significantly higher than the latter in all the above measurements[F(1,15)=11.670,P<0.01;F(1,15)=5.549,P<0.05;F(1,15)=9.209,P<0.01].(2)After the intervention,there was an improvement in manual dexterity in the experimental group,but without significant differences compared with the control group[F(1.316,19.736)=4.795,P>0.05].Conclusion The CPRT-based fundamental motor skills inter-vention can improve and sustain motor coordination among children with ASD,primarily through en-hanced performance in aiming,catching and balancing.

Objective:To describe the distribution characteristics of alcohol consumption in adult twins in the Chinese National Twin Registry (CNTR), and further explore the influence of genetic factors on alcohol consumption in adult twins.Methods:The subjects of the study were twins registered by CNTR in 11 project areas across China from 2010 to 2018. A total of 56 966 twins (28 483 pairs) aged 18 years and above who answered questions about drinking behavior were included, and the random effect model was used to describe the population and regional distribution characteristics of alcohol consumption. Intra-pair analysis was performed to calculate the concordance rate and heritability of their alcohol consumption.Results:The age of all subjects was (36.6±12.0) years, and current drinkers accounted for 16.6% (9 461/56 966) of all subjects. In men, those aged 50-59 years, those in northern China, those living in rural area, those with low education level and those with high BMI, the proportions of current drinkers were higher. After excluding 468 pairs of twins who had stopped alcohol use and 21 764 pairs of twins who had no drink or had small amount drink, an intra-pair analysis was conducted in 4 929 pairs of same-sex twins, and found that the concordance rate of alcohol consumption was 64.0% (2 059/3 215) in monozygotic twins, and 52.6% (902/1 714) in dizygotic twins, the difference was significant ( P<0.001), and the heritability of alcohol consumption was 24.1% (95% CI: 18.9%- 29.3%). The further stratified analysis found that in southern men, the heritability was highest in those aged 40-49 years (36.1%, 95% CI: 21.6%-50.7%), while in northern men, the heritability was highest in those aged 50-59 years (34.2%, 95% CI: 18.1%-50.3%). Conclusions:In adult twins in China, there were population and regional differences in the distribution of alcohol consumption behavior, and alcohol consumption was influenced by genetic factors, and gender, age and region had potential modifying effects.

Body weight abnormalities, including overweight, obesity, and underweight, have become a dual public health challenge in Chinese adults: overweight and obesity lead to a variety of chronic complications, while underweight increases the risks of malnutrition, sarcopenia, and organ dysfunction. To systematically address these issues, multidisciplinary experts in endocrinology, sports science, nutrition, and psychiatry from various regions have held multiple weight management seminars. Based on the latest epidemiological data and clinical evidence, they expanded the guideline to include assessment and intervention strategies for underweight, in addition to the core content of obesity management. This guideline outlines the etiological mechanisms, evaluation methods, and multidimensional management strategies for overweight and obesity, covering key areas such as diagnosis and assessment, medical nutrition therapy, exercise prescription, pharmacological intervention, and psychological support. It is intended to provide a scientific and standardized approach to weight management across the adult population, aiming to curb the rising prevalence of obesity, mitigate complications associated with abnormal body weight, and improve nutritional status and overall quality of life.
