Objective: To investigate the factors influencing the co-prevalence of allergic rhinitis and obesity among primary and secondary school students in Inner Mongolia, so as to provide a data foundation and theoretical basis for developing targeted intervention measures. Methods: In September and October 2024, a stratified cluster random sampling method was employed to select 139 102 students from 539 schools across 12 leagues/cities and 103 banners/counties in Inner Mongolia Autonomous Region. Participants who were diagnosed with allergic rhinitis by a doctor at least once within one year and had a body mass index ≥ 28 kg/m 2 were considered to have comorbid conditions. Results: The coprevalence rate of allergic rhinitis and obesity among primary and secondary school students in Inner Mongolia was 6.4% (8 931 cases). Lasso-Logistic regression revealed that nonboarding status, higher maternal education, consuming high protein foods ≥1 time daily, occasionally or never eating breakfast, engaging in moderate to vigorous physical activity for ≥60 minutes on fewer than half of holidays, and having been exposed to second hand smoke in person within the past seven days were associated with higher odds ratios for co-prevalence of allergic rhinitis and obesity( OR = 1.23 , 1.22-1.63, 1.20, 1.19, 1.38, 1.35); being female, higher grade level, residence in flag/county/district areas, non only child status, never having consumed a full glass of alcohol, non hypertensive status, and households without pets were associated with lower co-prevalence risks ( OR =0.65, 0.67-0.77, 0.81, 0.87, 0.73, 0.41, 0.68) (all P <0.05). The ROC curve indicated an area under the curve of 0.64 for the predictive model, demonstrating satisfactory discriminatory ability. The calibration curve showed consistency between predicted and actual occurrence probabilities. Conclusions The co-prevalence of allergic rhinitis and obesity among primary and secondary school students in Inner Mongolia is closely associated with demographic characteristics, dietary behaviours, and lifestyle habits. Future prevention and control strategies should prioritize these factors to implement targeted interventions.

Objective To investigate the effects of goal-directed fluid therapy(GDFT)based on pulse pressure variation(PPV)on postoperative cognitive function in patients undergoing Da Vinci robot-assisted radical resection of gynecological malignancies.Methods A total of 60 patients who underwent robot-assisted radical resection of gynecological malignancies were randomly divided into control group and observation group using a random number table method,with 30 patients in each group.The control group received conventional fluid replacement regimen,while the observation group received GDFT regimen based on PPV.The surgical conditions,hemodynamic indices[heart rate(HR),mean arterial pressure(MAP),PPV],cerebral oxygen saturation(rSO2),gastrointesti-nal function,renal function,cognitive function[Mini-Mental State Examination(MMSE)score],and postoperative conditions of the two groups were compared.Results The amount of crystalloid fluid and urine output in the observation group were less than those in the control group,while the amount of colloid fluid was more than that in the control group,with statistically significant differences(P＜0.05).Five minutes after anesthesia induction,the levels of MAP,HR and rSO2 in the observation group were higher than those in the control group,with statistically significant differences(P＜0.05).Five minutes after anesthesia induction,1 hour after the Trendelenburg position,and imme-diately after the end of surgery,the PPV levels in the observation group were lower than those in the control group,with statistically significant differences(P＜0.05).After surgery,the levels of lactic acid and urea nitrogen in both groupswere higher than those before surgery,but those in the observa-tion group were lower than those in the control group,with statistically significant differences(P＜0.05).After surgery,the creatinine levels in both groups were lower than those before surgery,but those in the observation group were higher than those in the control group,with statistically signifi-cant differences(P＜0.05).The time to first flatus in the observation group was earlier than that in the control group,with a statistically significant difference(P＜0.05).On days 3,7 and 30 after surgery,the MMSE scores in the observation group were higher than those in the control group,with statistically significant differences(P＜0.05).The drainage tube indwelling time and hospital stay in the observation group were shorter than those in the control group,with statistically significant differences(P＜0.05).There was no statistically significant difference in the overall incidence of postoperative complications between the two groups(P＞0.05).Conclusion GDFT based on PPV can stabilize the hemodynamic status and rSO2 in patients undergoing Da Vinci robot-assisted radical resection of gynecological malignancies and reduce postoperative cognitive impairment.

Objective To investigate the mechanism of autophagy induced by House dust mites(HDM)on airway epithelial tight junction through β-catenin-Snail signaling pathway.Methods Human bronchial epithelial cells(16HBE)were stimulated with HDM at different time points(0,3,6,12,24,48 h)and different concen-trations(0,40,100,200 μg/mL)to screen the appropriate stimulation concentration and stimulation time.16HBE cells were treated with oxidative stress inhibitor N-acetylcysteine(NAC),autophagy inhibitor 3-methylad-enine(3-MA),HDM,and their combinations.Cells were transfected with mCherry-EGFP-LC3B,Beclin-1-siRNA,and ATG14-siRNA lentivirus and then stimulated with NAC and HDM.Immunofluorescence was used to detect the expression levels of autophagy-related protein LC3B,tight junction-related proteins Occludin,and ZO-1 in airway epithelial cells.The level of reactive oxygen species(ROS)was detected by using DCFH-DA in each group.The protein expression levels of Occludin,ZO-1,LC3B,Beclin-1,ATG5,ATG14,P62,Snail,β-catenin and p-β-catenin were detected by Western blot method.Results Immunofluorescence results showed that compared with the control group,200 μg/mL HDM stimulation induced cellular autophagy,increased the expression level of LC3B protein,and promoted the level of ROS,all with statistical significances(all P<0.05).Compared with the HDM group,the HDM+3-MA,HDM+ATG14-si,and HDM+Beclin-1-si groupsall showed significantincreases in the expression levels of tight junction-related proteins Occludin and ZO-1(P<0.05).The HDM+NAC group demonstrated significant decreases both in the level of ROS andin the expression level of LC3B protein.Western blot results revealed that compared with HDM,3-MA and autophagy protein low-expression beads(Beclin-1-si,ATG14-si)attenuated HDM-induced cellular autophagy(P<0.05),inhibited HDM-induced upregulation of Snail and p-β-catenin expression,and improved HDM-induced decreases in Occludin and ZO-1(P<0.05).Moreover,compared with the HDM group,the NAC+HDM group exhibited significant decreases both in the conversion of LC3BⅠ to LC3BⅡ(P<0.001)in the protein levels of Snail,p-β-catenin,Beclin-1 and ATG14(P<0.01),but significant increases in the protein levels of Occludin and ZO-1(P<0.05).Conclusion HDM affects the tight connections between airway epithelial cells by inducing autophagy,which may be attributed to the β-catenin-Snail signaling pathway.

Digital technologies have become an integral part of complete denture restoration. With advancement in computer-aided design and computer-aided manufacturing (CAD/CAM), tools such as intraoral scanning, facial scanning, 3D printing, and numerical control machining are reshaping the workflow of complete denture restoration. Unlike conventional methods that rely heavily on clinical experience and manual techniques, digital technologies offer greater precision, predictability, and efficacy. They also streamline the process by reducing the number of patient visits and improving overall comfort. Despite these improvements, the clinical application of digital complete denture restoration still faces challenges that require further standardization. The major issues include appropriate case selection, establishing consistent digital workflows, and evaluating long-term outcomes. To address these challenges and provide clinical guidance for practitioners, this expert consensus outlines the principles, advantages, and limitations of digital complete denture technology. The aim of this review was to offer practical recommendations on indications, clinical procedures and precautions, evaluation metrics, and outcome assessment to support digital restoration of complete denture in clinical practice.

Meta-analysis showed that the postoperative incidence of IUA [RR＝0.30， 95%CI （0.22， 0.41）， P＜0.000 01]， postoperative vaginal bleeding time [MD＝－1.69， 95%CI （－2.05， －1.32）， P＜0.000 01]， postoperative vaginal bleeding volume [MD＝－10.78， 95%CI （－12.19， －9.37）， P＜0.000 01]， postoperative menstrual resumption time [MD＝－6.99， 95%CI （－8.27， －5.71）， P＜0.000 01]， and the incidence of postoperative reduced menstrual flow [RR＝0.25， 95%CI （0.12， 0.56）， P＝0.000 7] were significantly lower， less or shorter than control group； postoperative endometrial thickness [MD＝ 1.90， 95%CI （1.68， 2.13）， P＜0.000 01] and the rate of postoperative re-pregnancy [RR＝6.26， 95%CI （1.88， 20.83）， P＝0.003] were significantly higher than control group. CONCLUSIONS Dydrogesterone combined with estradiol valerate may reduce the incidence of IUA after induced abortion patients， decrease postoperative vaginal bleeding volume， shorten postoperative vaginal bleeding time and postoperative menstrual resumption time， and increase postoperative endometrial thickness.

Objective: To analyze the prevalence trends of different types of elevated blood pressure and their association with nutritional status among primary and secondary school students in Inner Mongolia from 2019 to 2024, providing references for targeted prevention strategies. Methods: From September 2019 to 2024, a stratified random cluster sampling method was used to select 12 primary and secondary schools from each league city in Inner Mongolia Autonomous Region. A total of 177 108, 137 758, 190 182, 180 084 , 188 056, 180 351 primary and secondary school students (excluding grades one to three of primary school) were included for physical examination. The correlation between their nutritional status and high blood pressure was analyzed based on the basic situation of 129 821 primary and secondary school students who completed a questionnaire survey at the same time in 2024. Statistical analysis was conducted using a Chi-square test and multiple Logistic regression model. Results: From 2019 to 2024, the detection rates of elevated blood pressure were 13.60%, 13.68%, 17.60%, 17.24%, 14.77% and 15.96%, respectively. The rates for isolated systolic hypertension were 4.24%, 5.83%, 7.26%, 7.19%, 6.24% and 6.93%; isolated diastolic hypertension rates were 6.38%, 4.99%, 6.23 %, 6.41%, 5.39% and 5.66%; and combined systolic and diastolic hypertension rates were 2.97%, 2.86%, 4.11%, 3.65%, 3.14 % and 3.36%. Multivariate Logistic regression analysis showed that girls, junior high school, senior high school, overweight, and obesity were positively associated with elevated blood pressure risk ( OR =1.27, 1.25, 1.32, 1.66, 3.07, all P <0.05); conversely, county residence, Mongolian ethnicity, and other ethnicities showed negative associations ( OR =0.90, 0.93, 0.90, all P <0.05). Conclusions Overweight and obesity among children and adolescents are closely related to various types of elevated blood pressure. Prevention strategies should prioritize effectively controlling weight issues among children and adolescents, thereby effectively reducing the incidence of elevated blood pressure.

Objective To investigate the effects of time in range(TIR)and microRNA-2245P(miR-2245P)interac-tions on the susceptibility and severity of diabetic retinopathy(DR)in the target range of glucose.Methods A prospec-tive study was conducted on 259 patients with DR(DR group)and 259 patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus(T2DM group)admitted to the Ophthalmology Department of Yantai Yeda Hospital from April 2022 to June 2024.TIR and miR-2245P were compared between the two groups,and the multivariate Logistic analysis was used to identify the factors associated with DR susceptibility.The receiver operating characteristic(ROC)curve was used to evaluate the predictive value of TIR,miR-2245 P,and their combination for DR.The interaction coefficient γ was used to analyze the effect of the interaction between TIR and miR-2245P on DR susceptibility.The Spearman correlation analysis was used to evaluate the correlation of TIR and miR-2245P with DR staging.Results The TIR and miR-2245P levels in the DR group were lower than those in the T2DM group(both P＜0.05).The multivariate logistic regression analysis showed that Logit(P)=0.083-0.470 × TIR-0.584 × miR-2245P,high levels of TIR and miR-2245P were independent protective factors of DR susceptibility(all P＜0.05).The areas under the ROC curve(AUC)of TIR,miR-2245P,and their combination for predicting DR were 0.76,0.79,and 0.91,respectively.The AUC of TIR combined with miR-2245P was greater than that of TIR and miR-2245P(both P＜0.05).The interaction analysis showed that the OR values of DR caused by low levels of TIR and miR-2245P alone were 2.05 and 1.92,respectively.The OR value of the interaction between TIR and miR-2245P was 10.69,greater than the prod-uct of OR values of TIR and miR-2245P alone.It indicates that the effect of the interaction of TIR and miR-2245P on suscep-tibility to DR is a super-multiplication model.The interaction coefficient was γ=3.31＞1,indicating a positive relationship of the interaction between the two factors with DR susceptibility.The Spearman correlation analysis showed that TIR and miR-2245P were negatively correlated with DR staging(both P＜0.001).Conclusion Both TIR and miR-2245P are asso-ciated with DR and its severity,and they have interactive effects on DR susceptibility.Combined detection can improve the predictive value of DR.This study provides a new idea and target for the prevention and treatment of DR.

Objective To explore the acupoint selection law and staged acupuncture prescriptions in the treatment of post-stroke dysphagia using data mining technology.Methods Clinical research literature about acupuncture treatment of post-stroke dysphagia was retrieved from CNKI,Wanfang Data,VIP,SinoMed,PubMed,Embase,Cochrane Library from January 1,2004 to October 1,2024.Prescription information was organized and summarized,and was entered into the database.Descriptive analysis,association rule analysis,complex network analysis and clustering analysis on prescription acupoints were conducted with Excel 2021,SPSS Modeler 18.0 and SPSS 26.0 softwares.Results A total of 306 articles were included,including 328 acupuncture prescriptions involving 118 acupoints,with a cumulative frequency of 1 541 times.The core acupoints were Lianquan,Fengchi,Yuye,Jinjin,Yifeng,Jialianquan,Fengfu and Wangu.The main meridians were Conception Vessel,gallbladder meridian,Governor Vessel and stomach meridian.The distribution was concentrated in the head,face and neck,and the use of intersection acupoints were the most.Association rule analysis showed that Lianquan-Fengchi,Lianquan-Jinjin-Yuye had the highest degree of support for association rules,and the clustering analysis showed 4 categories such as Jialianquan-Baihui-Fengfu.The analysis obtained corresponding acupuncture prescriptions for oral stage,pharyngeal stage and esophageal stage of dysphagia.Conclusion Acupuncture treatment of post-stroke dysphagia is mainly based on local acupoint and acupoint along meridians,mostly using intersection acupoints,combined with distal acupoints,and selecting the corresponding acupoints in different periods,which can improve the clinical efficacy.
