Objective To investigate the changing trend and epidemiological characteristics of the incidence and mortality of chronic kidney disease (CKD) with age, period and birth cohort in Chinese population. Methods Based on the data of incidence and mortality of CKD in Chinese population aged 20-80 years from 1990 to 2019 in GHDx database, joinpoint regression model was used to analyze the incidence and mortality trend of CKD. An age-period-cohort model was constructed to analyze the effects of age, period, and birth cohort on the trend of CKD incidence and mortality. Results Joinpoint regression analysis showed that the standardized incidence rate of chronic kidney disease in Chinese population increased from 146.37/100 000 in 1990 to 161.52/100 000 in 2019, while the standardized mortality rate decreased from 12.98/100 000 in 1990 to 11.23/100 000 in 2019. The APC model analysis showed that the risk of CKD incidence and death in the Chinese population increased with age, while the risk of CKD incidence increased with the increase of period. The risk of death did not change significantly with the increase of period. The cohort born later had a lower risk of CKD incidence and death compared to the cohort born earlier. Conclusion At present, the age effect and period effect of the incidence and death risk of chronic kidney disease in China are dominant. It is important to take effective measures and intervene in a timely manner, especially to strengthen the protection of older high-risk groups born earlier.

Objective　To explore the mediating role of cognitive function in the association between literacy level and depressive symptoms in middle-aged and elderly people in China. Methods　 Using the fourth national follow-up data of the China Health and Elderly Care Tracking Survey 2018, 8 124 middle-aged and elderly people aged 45 years and above were included as the study subjects. The PROCESS 4.0 program was used to test the mediating effect of cognitive function between literacy level and depressive symptoms, and the Bootstrap method was used for the mediator variable validation. Results The detection rate of depressive symptoms among middle-aged and elderly people in China was 38.10%. After controlling for gender, place of residence, marital status, smoking, alcohol consumption, and exercise, literacy level was a negative predictor of depressive symptoms in middle-aged and elderly people (β =－0.480, t =－11.248, P<0.001). Cognitive function accounted for 58.75% of the amount of mediating effect between literacy level and depressive symptoms. Conclusion 　Literacy level and cognitive function are associated with depressive symptoms in middle-aged and elderly people. Literacy level can influence depressive symptoms directly or indirectly through the mediation of cognitive dysfunction.

Objective To explore the mediating effect of health-promoting lifestyle on the relationship between health literacy and stigma among middle-aged and elderly patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM). Methods A stratified random sampling method was used to select 415 patients with T2DM from three general hospitals in Weifang to conduct a questionnaire survey using the Disease Stigma Assessment Scale for Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus (DSAS-2), the Health Literacy Scale, and the Type 2 Diabetes Health Promotion Scale (T2DHPS). Results Sickness stigma was negatively correlated with health literacy (r=-0.547, P<0.01) and negatively correlated with health promotion (r=-0.505, P<0.01), while health promotion was positively correlated with health literacy (r=0.398, P<0.01). Health-promoting lifestyle mediated the association between health literacy and stigma (β=0.0383, P<0.01), with the mediating effect accounting for 16.00% of the total effect. Conclusion Health literacy can influence the stigma of patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus through health promotion lifestyle, suggesting that the stigma of patients with diabetes can be improved through health promotion lifestyle intervention.

Objective To explore the relationship among serum vitamin D,calcium ion,blood lipid lev-els and preeclampsia in pregnant women,and analyze the pregnancy outcomes of pregnant women with pre-eclampsia.Methods A total of 166 pregnant women with preeclampsia who underwent pregnancy examina-tion and delivered in Urumqi Municipal Maternal and Child Health Care Hospital from January 1,2021 to Jan-uary 1,2023 were selected as the observation group,and 200 healthy pregnant women during the same period were selected as the control group.The levels of serum vitamin D,calcium ion,phosphorus ion,blood lipid in-dicators,uric acid,and creatinine were detected in the two groups,and the pregnancy complications and preg-nancy outcomes were observed.The influencing factors of preeclampsia were analyzed by using multivariate logistic regression model.Results The levels of serum vitamin D,calcium ion,and high density lipoprotein in the observation group were lower than those in the control group,and the levels of serum uric acid and creati-nine were higher than those in the control group,with statistical significance(P＜0.05).The incidence of fetal growth retardation,placental abruption,oligohydramnios,cesarean section,low birth weight infants,premature delivery,and postpartum hemorrhage in the observation group were significantly higher than those in the con-trol group(P＜0.05).Multivariate logistic regression analysis showed that serum vitamin D(OR=15.141,95％CI:1.831-125.204,P=0.012),calcium ion(OR=4.625,95％CI:2.654-8.059,P＜0.001),high-den-sit y lipoprotein(OR=0.395,95％CI:0.235-0.666,P＜0.001),creatinine(OR=1.034,95％CI:1.005-1.063,P=0.020)and uric acid(OR=1.006,95％CI:1.003-1.010,P＜0.001)were independent factors for the occurrence of preeclampsia in pregnant women.Conclusion The levels of serum vitamin D,calcium ions,blood lipids,uric acid and creatinine may be correlated with the occurrence of preeclampsia.

Objective To evaluate the quality of life of patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus in Weifang City, Shandong Province and to explore its influencing factors. Methods A multistage stratified random sampling method was used to investigate patients in endocrine outpatient clinics in four medical institutions in Weifang from July to September 2022. The survey included general information, multi-dimensional evaluation of quality of life with the EQ-5D-5L scale, calculation of health utility values, and analysis of influencing factors using Tobit regression models. Results A total of 397 patients with type 2 diabetes were included in the present investigation, with health utility value of 0.82±0.21 points and visual analogue scale (VAS) score of 79.47±12.81 points. Pain or discomfort, anxiety or depression were more prominent in the study population. Age, diabetic complications, BMI, daily need for care, social support, and daily level of glycemic control were factors influencing health-related quality of life in patients with type 2 diabetes. Conclusion In the actual treatment of type 2 diabetes patients, an emphasis should be placed on protecting elderly type 2 diabetic patients, preventing and controlling the occurrence and development of diabetic complications, and improving daily blood glucose control to further improve the health-related quality of life of the population.

Objective:To identify the key convergence points in the medical-nursing combined care among literature, and establish a mechanism for medical-nursing combined care integration from the perspective of the synergy theory, for the purpose of promoting the integrated development of such care in China.Methods:Relevant literature on the medical-nursing combined care were retrieved from the CNKI database from September 2013 to September 2021. The search formula used was TI= "the medical-nursing care integration" AND SU=(convergence+ transformation+ coordination+ mechanism), while supplementary searches were made using " pkulaw.com database" and Baidu Scholar database. The method of literature content analysis was used to screen key points of the medical-nursing combined care, and the convergence mechanism was built based on the perspective of the synergy theory.Results:A total of 42 literatures were included in this study, 8 key convergence points of medica-nursing combined care integration were identified. Namely the 4 key horizontal convergence points of medical care, aging care, rehabilitation and nursing, the 3 key vertical convergence points of home care, institution care and community care, and the one key convergence point of institutional medical care. Based on the synergy theory and the 8 key convergence points, the " 431" convergence mechanism of medical-nursing combined care was constructed. This mechanism refered to the horizontal linkage of healthcare, nursing, rehabilitation and aging care, the vertical redirection among home care, institution care and community care modes, and the development mode focusing on institutional aging care.Conclusions:At present, the poor convergence between aging care and nursing care in China is a key roadblock hindering the integrated development of aging and nursing care. Medical-nursing combined care should be conducive to the " 431" convergence development, achieving horizontal linkage, vertical redirection, and resource sharing, for the purpose of high-quality development of China′s aging care system.

Antibody-drug conjugates(ADCs)are commonly heterogeneous and require extensive assessment of exposure-efficacy and exposure-safety relationships in preclinical and clinical studies.In this study,we report the generation of a monoclonal antibody against monomethyl auristatin E(MMAE)and the development,validation,and application of sensitive and high-throughput enzyme-linked immunosor-bent assays(ELISA)to measure the concentrations of MMAE-conjugated ADCs and total antibodies(tAb,antibodies in ADC plus unconjugated antibodies)in cynomolgus monkey sera.These assays were suc-cessfully applied to in vitro plasma stability and pharmacokinetic(PK)studies of SMADC001,an MMAE-conjugated ADC against trophoblast cell surface antigen 2(TROP-2).The plasma stability of SMADC001 was better than that of similar ADCs coupled with PEG4-Val-Cit,Lys(m-dPEG24)-Cit,and Val-Cit linkers.The developed ELISA methods for the calibration standards of ADC and tAb revealed a correlation be-tween serum concentrations and the OD450 values,with R2 at 1.000,and the dynamic range was 0.3-35.0 ng/mL and 0.2-22.0 ng/mL,respectively;the intra-and inter-assay accuracy bias％ranged from-12.2％to-5.2％,precision ranged from-12.4％to-1.4％,and the relative standard deviation(RSD)was less than 6.6％and 8.7％,respectively.The total error was less than 20.4％.The development and validation steps of these two assays met the acceptance criteria for all addressed validation parameters,which suggested that these can be applied to quantify MMAE-conjugated ADCs,as well as in PK studies.Furthermore,these assays can be easily adopted for development of other similar immunoassays.

Objective  To study the effects of fine particulate matter(PM_2.5) on the autophagy in human melanocytes. Methods PM_2.5 was collected in Huanggang city. Then the water-soluble extracts and non-water-soluble extracts were isolated and the melanocytes were exposed to a W-PM_2.5 or NW-PM_2.5 with various concentrations. Autophagy of melanocytes was observed by MDC staining, and the expression of LC3-II /I were detected by immunohistochemistry and western blot. Results With the increase of concentration of W-PM_2.5 and NW-PM_2.5, the expression of melanocyte autophagosome and LC3-II /I increased, and the autophagy response was significantly enhanced（P<0.01）.In addition, the results of western blot showed that, at the same concentration, NW-PM_2.5 components had a stronger effect on promoting LC3II/I expression than W-PM_2.5 components（P<0.01）.Conclusion PM_2.5 can induce oxidative stress injury and excessive autophagy of melanocytes.

Objective To investigate the clinical effect of facial dermabrasion by microcrystal combined with red blue light in the treatment of acne pitting scar.Methods Selected from June 2013 to April 2016 hospital dermatology outpatients,98 cases of facial acne pitting scar were retrospectively analyzed,in which 50 cases of patients with facial acne dermabrasion were treated with red and blue light treatment (combined group),48 patients only choose facial acne dermabrasion treatment (control group),then treatment effect was compared between the two groups.Results At 3 months after operation,the ECCA score and mean sag depth of the two groups were significantly lower than those of the preoperative (t=23.208 and 18.586,P＜0.001).The ECCA score of the combined group was significantly lower than that of the control group (t=7.039,P＜0.05);The healing rate was 80％,which was significantly higher than those in the control group (56.25％) (x2 =6.387,P＜0.05);after 1 months and 3 months;the subjective satisfaction scores of the patients in the combined group were significantly higher than those in the control group (t=3.318 and 3.776,P＜0.05);Patients in the combined group were significantly earlier than the control group (t =4.419,P＜0.05);the incidence of edema and erythema was significantly lower in the combined group than in the control group (x2 =5.096,P＜0.05).Conclusions Facial acne dermabrasion by microcrystal combined with red and blue light treatment is superior to the single use of dermabrasion.

BACKGROUND: Bisphenol F (BPF) and bisphenol S (BPS) are increasingly used as substitutes for bisphenol A (BPA), an environmental obesogen. However, health effects of BPF and BPS remain unclear. In this study, we evaluated the associations of BPA, BPF, and BPS with obesity in children and adolescents. METHODS: We used data from the U.S. National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey 2013 to 2014, a nationally representative study. We included 745 participants aged 6 to 17 years old. General obesity was defined based on the 2000 Centers for Disease Control and Prevention body mass index-for-age growth charts for the United States. Abdominal obesity was defined as waist-to-height ratio ≥0.5. RESULTS: After adjustment for demographic, socioeconomic and lifestyle factors, and urinary creatinine levels, the odds ratio of general obesity comparing the highest with lowest quartile of urinary bisphenol levels was 1.74 (95% confidence interval [CI], 0.92 to 3.31) for BPA, 1.54 (95% CI, 1.02 to 2.32) for BPF, and 1.36 (95% CI, 0.53 to 3.51) for BPS. Moreover, the associations were stronger in boys than in girls for BPA and BPF. Similar results were observed for abdominal obesity. CONCLUSION: This study for the first time showed that exposure to BPF, a commonly used substitute for BPA, was positively associated with higher risk of obesity in children and adolescents. The association of BPA and BPF with general and abdominal obesity was primarily observed in boys, suggesting a possible sex difference. Further investigations on the underlying mechanisms are needed.
