Objective:To observe the proteomic changes in vitreous fluid samples from patients with rhegmatogenous retinal detachment combined with choroidal detachment (RRDCD).Methods:A prospective cross-sectional clinical study. Vitreous fluid samples were collected from 35 patients with RRDCD (RRDCD group) and 40 patients with rhegmatogenous retinal detachment (RRD group) who were diagnosed at Wuhan Aier Eye Hospital between November 2021 and December 2023. Prior to vitrectomy, 0.3-0.5 ml of vitreous fluid was collected from the affected eyes. Differentially expressed proteins were analyzed using Data-Independent Acquisition (DIA). Three of these proteins were randomly selected for validation using enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA). Bioinformatics analyses, including gene ontology functional enrichment and kyoto encyclopedia of genes and genomes pathway enrichment, were performed to explore the functions of the differentially expressed proteins.Results:Significant differences were observed between the RRDCD and RRD groups in intraocular pressure ( t=-12.795), the number of retinal tears ( t=4.601), the extent of retinal detachment ( χ2=39.642), axial length ( t=0.840), postoperative proliferative vitreoretinopathy incidence ( χ2=4.730), single-surgery reattachment rate ( χ2=7.717), and best-corrected visual acuity ( t=7.033) at 6 months postoperatively ( P<0.05). A total of 237 differentially expressed proteins were identified between the RRDCD and RRD groups, with 63 upregulated and 174 downregulated. These proteins were involved in pathways such as extracellular matrix-receptor interaction, complement activation, coagulation, and lysosomal pathways. ELISA validation results showed that the expression trends of the three selected proteins in the RRDCD and RRD groups were consistent with the DIA proteomic analysis. Compared to the RRD group, proteins such as fibrin, coagulation factors, cathepsins, and trypsin inhibitors were significantly upregulated in the RRDCD group. Conclusions:The protein expression profile in vitreous fluid samples from RRDCD patients show significant alterations compared to the RRD group. These differential changes suggest that RRDCD is closely associated with complement and coagulation cascade activation, lysosomal pathways, and extracellular matrix remodeling.

Objective:To understand the current situation of college students'sleep quality and the effect of rumination and psychological resilience on sleep quality.Methods:A total of 406 college students from two universities in Wuhu city were randomly selected and investigated by the general information questionnaire,Pittsburgh sleep quality index scale,rumination scale and psychological resilience scale.Pearson correlation analysis was used to analyze the correlation between rumination,psychological resilience and sleep quality.Multiple linear stepwise regression was used to analyze the influence of college students'self-improvement and symptom rumination on sleep quality.Finally,Bootstrap mediating effect was used to test the mediating effect of symptom rumination between self-improvement and sleep quality.Results:There were 107(26.4%)college students with sleep problems.The overall level of rumination and its dimensions were positively correlated with the total score of sleep quality(P＜0.05),and the self-improvement factor of psychological resilience was negatively correlated with the total score of sleep quality(P＜0.05).Self-improvement and symptom rumination had certain predictive power for sleep quality.Symptomatic rumination was a mediating variable between self-improvement and sleep quality,and the mediating effect value was-0.025.Conclusions:The sleep situation of college students is not optimistic.Reducing college students'rumination and improving their psychological resilience can effectively improve their sleep quality and promote the development of physical and mental health.

Objective To analyze the characteristics of platelet changes and their influencing factors during postoperative hospitalization in patients who underwent transcatheter aortic valve implantation (TAVI). Methods The patients who underwent TAVI at Beijing Anzhen Hospital Valve Surgery Center between March 2017 and October 2021 were retrospectively selected. The patients were divided into a self-limiting group and a non-self-limiting group according to the characteristics of postoperative platelet decline. In addition, the general preoperative data, preoperative and postoperative ultrasound data, intraoperative data, and the use of anticoagulant drugs during the postoperative stay in the hospital were compared between the two groups. Results A total of 249 patients were enrolled in this study. There were 175 (70.3%) patients in the self-limiting group, including 100 males and 75 females, and there were 74 (29.7%) patients in the non-self-limiting group, including 43 males and 31 females, with no statistical difference between the two groups (P=0.863). The mean age of patients was 73.11±8.88 years in the self-limiting group and 71.54±10.39 years in the non-self-limiting group (P=0.231). The decline of platelets in the self-limiting group generally occurred on the postoperative day 2 and reached the lowest count on the postoperative day 4, and returned to the baseline level on the postoperative day 5-7, while the platelets in the non-self-limiting group changed by simple rise, fall or irregular fluctuation. Patients in the self-limiting group had severer preoperative aortic stenosis (P<0.001) and used more extracorporeal circulation assistance during surgery (P<0.001). Postoperatively, patients in the self-limiting group were more likely to have periaortic valve leakage than those in the non-self-limiting group (P=0.013). Conclusion Platelet changes in most patients after TAVI show a self-limiting decline, which may be related to the severity of patients’ preoperative aortic stenosis, intraoperative extracorporeal circulation device use, and postoperative perivalvular leakage.

Osteoporosis can be induced by various factors including prolonged glucocorticoid usage, diminished estrogen levels, secondary hyperparathyroidism, and alterations in the microenvironment of bone tissue. The bone metabolism imbalance(osteogenic-lipogenic imbalance) plays a crucial role in the development of osteoporosis. This imbalance is primarily driven by an increase in the differentiation of bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells into adipocytes and a decrease in their differentiation into osteoblasts, thus forming the core of the osteogenic-lipogenic imbalance observed in osteoporosis. The bone morphogenesis protein(BMP) plays a crucial role in the regulation of the osteogenic-lipid balance in osteoporosis. This regulatory function is accomplished through both the Smad-dependent and Smad-independent pathways. This review centers on the Smad-dependent and Smad-independent pathways facilitated by BMP, offering a comprehensive overview of the potential mechanisms through which BMP-2, 4, 6, 7, and 9 contribute to the regulation of osteogenesis and lipid metabolism in osteoporosis via these pathways. In order to present novel insights for the identification of efficacious targets for clinical anti-osteoporosis medications.

Objective:To explore the impact of sleep duration, physical exercise, and their interactions on the risk of dyslipidemia in older adults aged ≥80 (the oldest old) in China.Methods:The study subjects were the oldest old from four rounds of Healthy Aging and Biomarkers Cohort Study (2008-2009, 2011-2012, 2014 and 2017-2018). The information about their demographic characteristics, lifestyles, physical examination results and others were collected, and fasting venous blood samples were collected from them for blood lipid testing. Competing risk model was used to analyze the causal associations of sleep duration and physical exercise with the risk for dyslipidemia. Restricted cubic spline (RCS) function was used to explore the dose-response relationship between sleep duration and the risk for dyslipidemia. Additive and multiplicative interaction model were used to explore the interaction of sleep duration and physical exercise on the risk for dyslipidemia.Results:The average age of 1 809 subjects was (93.1±7.7) years, 65.1% of them were women. The average sleep duration of the subjects was (8.0±2.5) hours/day, 28.1% of them had sleep duration for less than 7 hours/day, and 27.2% had sleep for duration more than 9 hours/day at baseline survey. During the 9-year cumulative follow-up of 6 150.6 person years (follow-up of average 3.4 years for one person), there were 304 new cases of dyslipidemia, with an incidence density of 4 942.6/100 000 person years. The results of competitive risk model analysis showed that compared with those who slept for 7-9 hours/day, the risk for dyslipidemia in oldest old with sleep duration >9 hours/day increased by 22% ( HR=1.22, 95% CI: 1.07-1.39). Compared with the oldest old having no physical exercise, the risk for dyslipidemia in the oldest old having physical exercise decreased by 33% ( HR=0.67, 95% CI: 0.57-0.78). The RCS function showed a linear positive dose-response relationship between sleep duration and the risk for hyperlipidemia. The interaction analysis showed that physical exercise and sleep duration had an antagonistic effect on the risk for hyperlipidemia. Conclusion:Physical exercise could reduce the adverse effects of prolonged sleep on blood lipids in the oldest old.

Objective:To investigate the distribution characteristics of skeletal muscle mass and strength in the older adults over 65 years old in 18 longevity areas in China.Methods:The subjects were selected from the Healthy Aging and Biomarkers Cohort Study conducted in 18 longevity areas of China. A total of 4 662 older adults over 65 years old from a cross- sectional survey in 2021 were included in the study. The information about their sociodemographic characteristics, lifestyle, nutrient intake and other factors were collected through questionnaire surveys and physical examinations. Grip strength was measured by using professional electronic grip dynamometer. Total skeletal muscle mass (TSM) was measured using bioelectrical impedance analysis, and TSM was adjusted by height squared and BMI to obtain TSM Ht2 and TSM BMI. The proportion of individuals with low muscle mass and strength was determined according to the recommended method by the Asian Working Group for Sarcopenia (AWGS). Descriptive analysis was conducted on the population and regional distribution characteristics of people with different muscle mass and grip strength. A generalized additive model was used to analyze the age-related trends of muscle mass and grip strength. Results:The age of 4 662 study subjects was (82.69±10.54) years, men accounted for 46.85% (2 184 cases) and Han Chinese accounted for 96.27% (4 488 cases). The M( Q1, Q3) of TSM, TSM Ht2 and TSM BMI in men were 23.30 (20.50, 26.20) kg, 9.02 (8.13, 9.89) kg/m 2, and 1.01 (0.90, 1.13) kg·(kg/m 2) -1, respectively, which were all higher than those in women [TSM: 18.20 (15.70, 20.70) kg, TSM Ht2: 8.18 (7.42, 9.07) kg/m 2 and TSM BMI: 0.79 (0.69, 0.90) kg·(kg/m 2) -1], the differences were significant (all P<0.001). The grip strength of men [ M( Q1, Q3): 24.50 (17.80, 30.80) kg] was higher than that of women [ M( Q1, Q3): 15.60 (11.10, 19.90) kg], the difference was significant ( P<0.001). Southern elderly men had lower TSM and TSM Ht2 compared with northern elderly men (all P<0.001), while there was no significant regional difference in TSM BMI ( P>0.05). Southern elderly women had higher TSM Ht2 and TSM BMI compared with northern elderly women (all P<0.001), while there was no significant regional difference in TSM ( P>0.05). Furthermore, according to the method recommended by AWGS, the elderly with low muscle mass and grip strength were characterized by older age, illiteracy, being unmarried/divorced/widowed, poor chewing ability, impaired activity of daily living and living in southern region. Conclusion:There were population and regional differences in muscle mass and grip strength in the older adults over 65 years in 18 longevity areas of China, and these differences showed decreasing trends with age.

Tongxie Yaofang， also known as Baizhu Shaoyaosan， was first recorded in Danxi's Experiential Therapy （《丹溪心法》） by ZHU Danxi in the Yuan dynasty. It is composed of Atractylodis Macrocephalae Rhizoma， Paeoniae Radix Alba， Citri Reticulatae Pericarpium， and Saposhnikoviae Radix， and serves as the representative prescription for the treatment of painful diarrhea. It has the functions of tonifying the spleen， emolliating the liver， relieving pain， and checking diarrhea， and is mainly used in the treatment of gastrointestinal diseases such as irritable bowel syndrome （IBS） and ulcerative colitis （UC）. In addition， it is effective in treating gastrointestinal disorders with mental and psychological abnormalities， as well as obstinate anorexia in children， depression syndrome， and respiratory diseases. Experimental research and clinical practice have shown that Tongxie Yaofang has multi-component， multi-pathway， and multi-target characteristics in the treatment of diseases. The mechanism of Tongxie Yaofang in treating diseases is mainly attributed to anti-inflammation， immune function regulation， intestinal hypersensitivity improvement， emotion regulation， etc. Monoterpene glycosides， flavonoids， chromones， lactones， and other components contained play an important therapeutic role. The research on the systems biology of Tongxie Yaofang， such as metabolomics， proteomics， and network pharmacology， provides a scientific basis for clarifying its mechanism of action and expanding its clinical application. However， there are still some problems to be solved， such as difficulty in combining diseases and syndromes and lack of in-depth systematic research. Through the retrieval and collation of relevant literature， this paper systematically reviewed the material basis， pharmacological effects， and systems biology research of Tongxie Yaofang， aiming to lay a foundation for in-depth research on its mechanism in treating diseases and rational application in clinical practice.

OBJECTIVE: To explore the clinical and laboratory characteristics of hematological tumors with different types of abnormalities in platelet derived growth factor β (PDGFRβ) gene. METHODS: A retrospective analysis was carried out on 141 patients with abnormal long arm of chromosome 5 (5q) and comprehensive medical history data from Changhai Hospital Affiliated to Naval Medical University from 2009 to 2020, and their clinical data were collected. R-banding technique was used for chromosomal karyotyping analysis for the patient's bone marrow, and fluorescence in situ hybridization (FISH) was used to detect the PDGFRβ gene. The results of detection were divided into the amplification group, deletion group, and translocation group based on FISH signals. The three sets of data column crosstabs were statistically analyzed, and if the sample size was n >= 40 and the expected frequency T for each cell was >= 5, a Pearson test was used to compare the three groups of data. If N < 40 and any of the expected frequency T for each cell was < 5, a Fisher's exact test is used. Should there be a difference in the comparison results between the three sets of data, a Bonferroni method was further used to compare the data. RESULTS: In total 98 patients were detected to have PDGFRβ gene abnormalities with the PDGFRβ probe, which yielded a detection rate of 69.50% (98/141). Among these, 38 cases (38.78%) had PDGFRβ gene amplifications, 57 cases (58.16%) had deletions, and 3 (3.06%) had translocations. Among the 98 cases, 93 were found to have complex karyotypes, including 37 cases from the amplification group (97.37%, 37/38), 55 cases from the deletion group (96.49%, 55/57), and 1 case from the translocation group (33.33%, 1/3). Analysis of three sets of clinical data showed no significant gender preponderance in the groups (P > 0.05). The PDGFRβ deletion group was mainly associated with myeloid tumors, such as acute myeloid leukemia (AML) and myelodysplastic syndrome (MDS) (P < 0.001). The PDGFRβ amplification group was more common in lymphoid tumors, such as multiple myeloma (MM) (P < 0.001). The PDGFRβ translocation group was also more common in myelodysplastic/myeloproliferative tumors (MDS/MPN). CONCLUSION Tumors with PDGFRβ gene rearrangement may exhibit excessive proliferation of myeloproliferative tumors (MPN) and pathological hematopoietic changes in the MDS, and have typical clinical and hematological characteristics. As a relatively rare type of hematological tumor, in addition to previously described myeloid tumors such as MPN or MDS/MPN, it may also cover lymphoid/plasma cell tumors such as multiple myeloma and non-Hodgkin's lymphoma.

OBJECTIVE To compare the efficacy and safety of icotinib and gefitinib in the treatment of epidermal growth factor receptor （EGFR）-mutated advanced non-small cell lung cancer （NSCLC）. METHODS The data of 146 patients with EGFR- mutant advanced NSCLC of our Hospital from December 2015 to September 2021 were retrospectively analyzed and divided into the gefitinib group （73 cases） and the icotinib group （73 cases） according to the drug use. Patients in the gefitinib group were given 0.25 g of gefitinib tablets once a day orally by single drug or combined with conventional chemotherapy， while patients in the icotinib group were given 125 mg of icotinib hydrochloride tablets three times a day orally by single drug or combined with conventional chemotherapy. Short-term efficacy， progression-free survival （PFS） were observed； Cox regression model was used to analyze the factors affecting the prognosis of patients； the occurrence of ADR were observed in the two groups. RESULTS There was no statistically significant difference in the objective remission rate， disease control rate， and the incidence of grade 1-2 and grade 3-4 adverse drug reactions between the two groups （P＞0.05）； median PFS was significantly better in the icotinib group than in the gefitinib group （P＝0.048）. Results of subgroup analysis based on patients basic information showed that compared with the gefitinib group， PFS of female [HR＝0.57，95%CI（0.34，0.96），P＝0.031] and non-brain metastatic patients [HR＝0.58，95%CI（0.36，0.91），P＝0.017] in icotinib group were prolonged significantly. Results of regression model analysis showed that EGFR19 exon Del mutation [HR＝0.50， 95%CI（0.25，1.00）， P＝0.049]， EGFR21 exon L858R mutation [HR＝0.44， 95%CI（0.21，0.89）， P＝0.022] and icotinib treatment [HR＝0.65， 95%CI （0.44，0.96）， P＝0.030] were influential factors for prognosis. CONCLUSIONS The short-term efficacy and safety of icotinib and gefitinib in the treatment of EGFR- mutant advanced NSCLC are comparable， but icotinib can significantly prolong the patients’ PFS； EGFR19 exon Del， EGFR21 exon L858R mutations and icotinib treatment are factors affecting patients’ prognosis.
