BACKGROUND:Disruption of biological rhythms(circadian rhythms)is a typical problem associated with aging.Maintaining the normal function of biological rhythms may be a promising anti-aging strategy.Expression of nuclear factor erthroid 2-related factor 2(Nrf2)is biologically regulated.The glycogen synthase kinase 3(GSK3)system represents a"regulatory valve"that controls subtle oscillations in Nrf2 levels.Circadian changes in the transcript levels of antioxidant genes can influence the response of organisms to oxidative stress.However,the specific molecular mechanism of GSK3/Nrf2 in regulating organismal aging is still puzzling. OBJECTIVE:To search for the general pattern of GSK3/Nrf2-regulated biological rhythms in organismal aging by reviewing the literature in this field. METHODS:The bibliographic method was used to search,review and screen the relevant literature using the keywords of"glycogen synthase kinase 3,nuclear factor erthroid 2-related factor 2,biorhythms and aging"to lay a theoretical foundation for the analysis of the whole paper.Comparative analysis method,through reading and analyzing the obtained literature,was performed to compare the similarities and differences between the literature,thereby providing reasonable theoretical support for the argument.Further comparative analysis of the literature was conducted to clarify the relationship between the relevant indicators as well as the ideas for analysis throughout the text. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:GSK3 can indirectly regulate Nrf2 expression through the regulation of rhythm genes.GSK3 and Nrf2 are components of anti-aging programs and are associated with biological rhythms.In addition,GSK3/Nrf2 is involved in several metabolic pathways,including those associated with age-related diseases(type 2 diabetes and cancer)and neurodegenerative diseases.

Background: Normalized creatinine-to-cystatin C ratio (NCCR) was reported to approximate relative skeletal muscle mass and diabetes risk. However, the association between NCCR and cardiometabolic multimorbidity (CMM) remains elusive. This study aimed to explore their relationship in a large-scale prospective cohort. Methods: This study included 5,849 middle-age and older participants from the China Health and Retirement Longitudinal Study (CHARLS) enrolled between 2011 and 2012. The baseline NCCR was determined as creatinine (mg/dL)/cystatin C (mg/L)×10/body mass (kg). CMM was defined as the simultaneous occurrence of two or more of the following conditions: heart disease, stroke, and type 2 diabetes mellitus. Logistic regression analysis and Cox regression analysis were employed to estimate the relationship between NCCR and CMM. The joint effect of body mass index and NCCR on the risk of CMM were further analyzed. Results: During a median 4-year follow-up, 227 (3.9%) participants developed CMM. The risk of CMM was significantly decreased with per standard deviation increase of NCCR (odds ratio, 0.72; 95% confidence interval, 0.62 to 0.85) after adjustment for confounders (P<0.001). Further sex-specific analysis found significant negative associations between NCCR and CMM in female either without or with one CMM component at baseline, which was attenuated in males but remained statistically significant among those with one basal CMM component. Notably, non-obese individuals with high NCCR levels had the lowest CMM risk compared to obese counterparts with low NCCR levels in both genders. Conclusion High NCCR was independently associated with reduced risk of CMM in middle-aged and older adults in China, particularly females.

Objective To analyze the application dose of ciprofol combined with fentanyl in patients undergoing gastroscopy.Method 99 gastroscopy patients from June 2021 to June 2023 were selected as the study objects,and divided into three groups with 33 cases each by random number table method.Group A was given 0.3 mg/kg ciprofol+1.5 μg/kg fentanyl anesthesia,group B was given 0.4 mg/kg ciprofol+1.5 μg/kg fentanyl anesthesia,group C was given 0.5 mg/kg ciprofol+1.5 μg/kg fentanyl anesthesia.Anesthesia,examination,electroencephalogram bispectral index(BIS),mean arterial pressure(MAP),heart rate(HR)and adverse reaction were compared among all groups.Results The success rate of the first anesthesia in Group A was lower than that in Group B and Group C,the gastroscopy examination time was longer than that in Group B and Group C,and the awakening time and hospital leave time were shorter than those in Group B and Group C,the awakening time and hospitalization time of Group B were shorter than those of Group C,the BIS of Group A at time points T2 to T5 was higher than that of Group B and Group C,the MAP and HR levels at time points T2 to T5 in Group A were lower than those in Group B and Group C,the incidence of body movement and coughing in Group A was higher than that in Group B and Group C,the incidence of hypotension and nausea and vomiting in Group C was higher than that in Group A and Group B,and the differences were statistically significant(P<0.05).One patient in Group A and one patient in Group C stopped gastroscopy due to hypoxemia,Group B did not experience hypoxemia,and the difference was not statistically significant(P>0.05).There were 4 cases in Group A,6 cases in Group B and 10 cases in Group C who received intervention with vasoactive drugs due to hypotension,and the difference was statistically significant(P<0.05).Conclusion Patients undergoing gastroscopy which should use 0.4 mg/kg ciprofol+1.5 μg/kg fentanyl anesthesia can achieve better anesthesia effect,shorten examination time and hospitalization time,stabilize vital signs,and reduce adverse reaction incidence rate.

A virus was successfully isolated from a sick cat exhibiting clinical signs such as oral mu-cosal ulceration,nasal mucosal redness,and increased nasal secretions utilizing F81 cells.Through a comprehensive analysis as such PCR amplication,sequencing,morphology,serology,and animal re-gression tests,the virus was identified as a feline calicivirus and named FCV-BJ,an inactivated vac-cine was developed from this isolated strain its safety and efficacy were assessed.The results re-vealed that the isolated FCV-BJ strain exhibited characteristic serological and morphological fea-tures consistent with caliciviruses.Furthermore,inoculation of cats with the FCV-BJ demonstrated the strain is highly virulent and the cats manifested the clinical signs of feline calicivirus infection.For the vaccination trial,domestic cats were immunized with inactivated fifth-generation virus cell culture at varying dilutions,followed by a booster immunization after 21 days.Fourteen days after the challenge with the virus,cats immunized with 107.0 TCID50/mL or higher remained largely healthy,while all cats in the control group developed clinical signs of FCV.These findings suggest that the inactivated vaccine derived from the FCV-BJ isolate exhibits strong immunogenicity and protective efficacy at a minimum immunization dose of 107.0 TCID50/mL.This strain holds promise as a candidate for vaccine production,providing a valuable reference and foundation for future re-search and development of feline calicivirus vaccines.

Objective:To explore the relationship between relapse tendency and psychological craving in fe-male methamphetamine(MA)-dependent young adults,focusing on the roles of self-control and future time per-spective.Methods:A total of 340 MA-dependent young adults from two women's compulsory isolation drug reha-bilitation centers in Sichuan Province were included.Participants were assessed with the Relapse Tendency Ques-tionnaire(RTQ),Obsessive Compulsive Drug Use Scale(OCDUS),Drug Abuser Self-Control Ability Question-naire(DASAQ)and General Future Time Perspective Scale(GFTPQ).The moderated mediation model was ana-lyzed by using the SPSS macro program PROCESS(version4.2).Results:The RTQ scores were positively correla-ted with the OCDUS scores(r=0.45,P＜0.001).The DASAQ scores partially mediated the relationship between the scores of OCDUS and RTQ,accounted for 37.91％of the total effect.The GFTP scores moderated the relation-ship between the scores of the OCDUS,DASAQ and RTQ(β=-0.18,0.19,P＜0.001).Conclusion:The influ-ence of psychological craving on relapse tendency in female MA-dependent young adults exhibits a moderated me-diating effect,suggesting the potential of enhancing self-control and future time perspective for preventing relapse and improving detoxification efficiency.
