Aging and cancer share overlapping characteristics, referred to as meta-hallmarks, which elucidate the convergent, antagonistic, or contradictory relationships between aging and cancer. Likewise, as a key characteristic of aging, senescent cells share some meta-hallmarks with tumor cells. These hallmarks include apoptosis resistance, metabolic alterations, secretory phenotypes, epigenetic reprogramming, and immune surveillance, all of which play pivotal roles in both tumorigenesis and senescence. Moreover, senolytic drugs, which are a class of agents selectively designed to eliminate senescent cells, have emerged as promising therapeutic agents in oncology and aging-related diseases. Since the discovery of the first senolytic drug in 2015, a diverse array of such agents has been developed. Notably, most senolytic drugs are repurposed from existing anti-tumor therapies, leveraging their shared mechanisms with senescent cells and tumor cells. Thus, this review examines the similarities between senescent cells and tumor cells, providing a better understanding of the meta-hallmarks. Besides, we categorize existing senolytic drugs based upon meta-hallmarks and elucidate the potential molecular mechanisms underlying their effects. By integrating insights from cancer and senescence research, this work aims to inspire innovative strategies for senolytic drug discovery.

Objective:To investigate the cognitive characteristics and related influencing factors in Parkinson′s disease (PD) patients with or without olfactory anosognosia (OA).Methods:A total of 113 PD patients who were treated at the Affiliated Hospital of Yangzhou University between March 2023 and April 2024 were selected. The PD Olfactory Dysfunction Auxiliary Diagnostic Card was used to assess olfactory function. Based on the olfactory identification scores and subjective awareness of olfactory dysfunction, patients were divided into the normosmic group, olfactory dysfunction group, and the later was further divided into olfactory dysfunction without OA (OA-) group, and olfactory dysfunction with OA (OA+) group. The results of the Unified Parkinson′s Disease Rating Scale-Ⅲ (UPDRS-Ⅲ) and Hoehn-Yahr (H-Y) staging assessments of the patients were collected. Non-motor symptoms such as cognitive function, anxiety, depression, sleep disturbances, and constipation were evaluated using relevant scales. Logistic regression analysis was used to explore the related factors affecting OA in PD patients with olfactory decline.Results:The Montreal Cognitive Assessment (MoCA) scores of the olfactory dysfunction group were lower than those of the normosmic group (20.30±4.47 vs 22.64±2.50, t=2.907, P=0.007). The Self-Rating Anxiety Scale scores (39.00±8.60 vs 43.86±10.63, t=2.444, P=0.016), visuospatial and executive function scores (2.35±1.32 vs 2.98±1.42, t=2.263, P=0.026), and orientation scores (4.88±1.14 vs 5.34±1.07, t=2.046, P=0.043) of the OA+ group were lower than those of the OA- group. Logistic regression analysis revealed that lower MoCA scores were an independent risk factor for PD combined with OA ( OR=0.853, 95% CI 0.743-0.980, P=0.024). Conclusions:PD patients with olfactory dysfunction exhibit more severe cognitive impairment. Among them, patients with OA show more significant impairments in visuospatial, executive function and orientation. Cognitive impairment may be an independent risk factor for PD combined with OA.

Objective To study the effect of incorporating comprehensive geriatric assessment(CGA)into the whole-process WeChat-based case health management in elderly population who took annual physical examinations,thereby to improve their ability in health self-management.Methods A randomised controlled trial was conducted to select 100 elderly people who took annual physical examinations in our hospital from July 2022 to June 2023.The elderly were randomly divided into a control group and an trial group,with 50 people per group.CGA was applied to both groups,but the control group was under conventional health management,while the trial group received the incorporation of CGA into a whole-process WeChat-based case health management.The self-rated abilities for health practices scale(SRAHP)was used to compare the scores between the two groups before intervention,at 3,6 and 12 months after intervention.The scores of fatigue,resistance,ambulation,illnesses&loss of weight scale(FRAIL)and the mini nutritional assessment-short form(MNA-SF)were compared between the two groups before intervention and at 12 months after intervention.Incidence of falls was also evaluated after intervention.Results All the participants completed the study.Repeated measures analysis of variance showed that total SRAHP scores had statistical significances in main effect on time,group and interaction(Ftime=193.451,P<0.001;Fgroup=23.661,P<0.001;Finteraction=29.970,P<0.001).Further analysis revealed that the elderly in trial group had higher total scores in SRAHP than those in the control group at 6 and 12 months after intervention(both P<0.001).At 12 months after intervention,the trial group showed better scores in FRAIL and MNA-SF than the control group(both P<0.05)as well as with a lower incidence of falls(P<0.05).Conclusion Incorporation of CGA into a comprehensive WeChat-based case health management,over a long-term,can effectively enhance the ability in health self-management among elderly individuals who take annual health examinations,improve frailty and nutritional status and reduce the incidence of falls.The health self-management discovered from this study provides a valuable reference for health management among the elderly people who take annual physical examinations.

Western bioethics,with its theoretical basis in individualism,is essentially a form of universalist ethics that makes it difficult to respond to the complexities of moral life.Scholars represented by Engelhardt and MacIntyre have profoundly reflected on universalist ethics from the perspective of moral pluralism,but they have not been able to fundamentally resolve the disputes.Grasping the theoretical lineage of the controversy between universalism and particularism can provide an important reference for the construction of bioethics based on Confucianism in contemporary China.Furthermore,from the perspective of opposing universalism and particularism,as well as in response to the issues of the era of life science and technology and the cultural background of China,it can not only realize the modern interpretation of Confucian ethics,but also promote the effective application of modern bioethics theory.

【Objective】 To evaluate the efficacy and safety of ureteroscope or flexible ureteroscope combined with balloon dilatation in the treatment of ureteral stricture with renal calculi in transplanted kidney. 【Methods】 The clinical data of 9 patients treated in our hospital during 2016 and 2022 were reviewed. The changes of the width of hydronephrosis, levels of creatinine and urea nitrogen, reoperation, and re-dwelling of stents were analyzed. 【Results】 One patient failed the operation because the guide wire could not be inserted, and the other 8 patients successfully completed the surgery. The stents were removed 6 to 8 weeks after surgery. During the follow-up of 8 to 48 months, no recurrence of renal calculi occurred; 5 patients had no recurrence of ureteral stricture; 3 patients (cases 4, 6, 9) underwent regular ureteral stent replacement due to hydronephrosis; the width of hydronephrosis, creatinine and urea nitrogen levels of 8 patients were significantly improved (P<0.05). 【Conclusion】 Ureteroscope/flexible with balloon dilatation is safe and effective in the treatment of transplanted kidney with ureteral stricture and kidney stones.

Background Studies on the association between greenness exposure and allergic rhinitis (AR) in children are mostly conducted in developed countries, and the conclusion is not consistent. Objective Using street view data to explore the association between greenness exposure and allergic rhinitis (AR) prevalence in Chinese children. Methods A cross-sectional study was conducted among 40868 children aged 2-17 years in three cities of Northeast China from 2012 to 2013, which consisted of 20886 (51.1%) boys and 19982 (48.9%) girls. The information of AR prevalence was obtained through questionnaire. Based on downloaded street view images from Tencent Maps, a green view index (GVI) of green vegetation (trees and grass) within 800 m and 1000 m buffer of the participants' schools was calculated by using artificial intelligence, and it was used as a surrogate of the greenness exposure. A mixed-effect logistic regression model was used to estimate the odds ratio (OR) of AR prevalence in children for per increase of inter-quartile range (IQR) of GVI. In addition, according to ambient PM_2.5 concentration, the participants were divided into a low PM_2.5 exposure group (≤56.23 μg·m⁻³) and a high exposure group (>56.23 μg·m⁻³) to investigate whether PM_2.5 was a modifier on the association between GVI and AR. Results The average age of the subjects was (10.40±3.68) years and 3 963 (9.7%) subjects reported diagnosed AR. Within 800 m buffer, an IQR increase in GVI for trees (IQR=0.031, OR=0.85, 95%CI: 0.81-0.90) and overall greenness (IQR=0.029, OR=0.86, 95%CI: 0.81-0.90) was associated with lower adjusted odds ratio of AR. The interaction between PM_2.5 and GVI was statistically significant (P< 0.1), that is, the negative associations of trees and overall greenness with AR were observed only at low PM_2.5 exposure levels. The sensitivity analysis results of GVI within 1000 m buffer was consistent with that within 800 m buffer. Conclusion Exposure to green vegetation, especially trees, may be associated with decreased risks of AR in children, and such associations may be more obvious in areas with a low PM_2.5 concentration.

Objective:To analyze the influencing factors of attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) in children and construct a Nomogram prediction model.Methods:A total of 5 409 children aged 7 to 16 from 5 schools in Xinjiang were investigated by using SNAP-Ⅳ assessment scale and influencing factors questionnaire.Least absolute shrinkage and selection operator (LASSO) regression and multivariate Logistic regression were used to analyze and investigate the influencing factors of ADHD in children, and then Nomogram prediction model was established. Results:(1)The detection rate of ADHD was 7.3%.(2) The LASSO- Logistic regression model showed that the history of febrile convulsions ( OR=5.97, 95% CI: 3.52-9.86), the history of epilepsy disease ( OR=11.86, 95% CI: 7.83-17.89), the history of head trauma disease ( OR=10.0, 95% CI: 7.27-13.71), mother′s delivery method ( OR=2.53, 95% CI: 1.99-3.23), mother′s education level ( OR=2.26, 95% CI: 1.45-3.67), mother′s smoking more than 1 year ( OR=12.65, 95% CI: 8.30-19.34), whether the family environment is quiet ( OR=1.27, 95% CI: 1.00-1.63), and the education method of beating and scolding ( OR=3.05, 95% CI: 2.13-4.31) was an indepen-dent risk factor for children with ADHD; (3)The Nomogram prediction model was built and verified by Bootstrap for 1 000 samples.The C-index was 0.81(95% CI: 0.78-0.83), suggesting that the Nomogram prediction model has good prediction ability, accuracy, and distinction.Decision curve analysis (DCA) of the clinical decision curve suggested that patients with Nomogram model with a predictive probability threshold greater than 0.2 had a higher clinical net benefit. Conclusions:The detection rate of ADHD was 7.3%, which was higher than the national average.The Nomogram prediction model drawn here can provide individualized ADHD risk predictions for children based on the history of hyperthermia, epilepsy, and head trauma, maternal mode of childbirth, maternal education level, maternal education level, maternal smoking for more than 1 year, quiet family environment, and scolding education methods.

Objective: To investigate the characteristics of visual motor integration in children with developmental dyslexia and ADHD, and to provide a reference for the diagnosis and treatment of these children. Methods: During July to November of 2020，students from grade 3 to grade 5 of 7 primary schools in Xinjiang were selected by using random cluster sampling method. A total of 56 dyslexia group (group DD), attention deficit hyperactivity disorder group (group ADHD), comorbidity group and normal control group were selected and compared the differences of their visual motor integration ability and related factors ability. Multiple linear regression analysis was used to explore the predictive effects of related factors on visual motor integration ability. Results: The scores of visual integration ability and visual perception in comorbidity group (95.05±14.01, 12.71±7.40) were lower than those in DD group (104.77±17.19，23.04±11.48), ADHD group (104.00±14.11，25.70±10.74) and normal control group (129.80±12.91, 44.05±16.56) ( F/Z =58.24,110.49, P <0.05). The visual working memory score of the comorbidity group ( 73.64 ±5.36) was lower than the normal control group (78.96±4.68) ( P <0.05)，and there was no significant difference between the DD group (74.48±7.06) and the ADHD group (75.98±7.36) ( P >0.05). The results of multiple regression showed that visual perception, age, IQ and visual working memory were associated with visual and motor integration ability of dyslexia children with ADHD ( R 2=0.32，0.17，0.11， 0.04 ， P <0.05). Conclusion Visual motor integration and visual perception among children with DD combined ADHD are more severely impaired than those with ADHD and DD alone. Visual perception, age, IQ and visual working memory could help predict the development of visual and motor integration ability in children with DD combined ADHD.
