Objective The study aimed to investigate the predictive efficacy of contrast-enhanced ultrasound combined with telomerase reverse transcriptase(TERT)promoter mutation in constructing nomogram model for the prediction of concomitant cervical lymph node metastasis(CLNM)in papillary thyroid microcarcinoma(pTMC).Methods A total of 202 patients with pTMC who underwent partial or total thyroidectomy+lymph node dissection at our hospital from January 2021 to March 2024 were selected.Then,they were divided into the CLNM group(97 patients)and the non-CLNM group(105 patients)according to whether they had concomitant CLNM on postoperative pathological examination.General data and ultrasound(conventional ultrasound and contrast-enhanced ultrasound)characteristics were collected from all patients with pTMC,and Sanger sequencing was used to detect TERT promoter mutations.The influencing factors of pTMC complicated by CLNM were analyzed by single-factor and multifactorial unconditional logistic regression;the nomogram model of pTMC complicating CLNM with contrast-enhanced ultra-sound combined with TERT promoter mutation was constructed by RStudio 4.4.1 software,and the consistency and net benefit of the nomogram model were evaluated by using calibration curves,decision curves,and C-indexes,and the Hosmer-Lemeshow test for goodness of fit of the nomogram model;The predictive efficiency of the nomogram model constructed by combining contrast-enhanced ultrasound and TERT promoter mutation for pTMC complicated by CLNM was evaluated by plotting receiver operating characteristic(ROC)curves using MedCalc22.023 software.Results After postoperative pathological examination,the incidence of CLNM in 202 patients with pTMC was 48.02%(97/202).Univariate analysis showed that thyroglobulin antibodies,number of lesions,aspect ratio,micro-calcifications,enhancement time,enhancement mode,enhancement intensity,capsular continuity,and TERT promoter mutations were associated with pTMC complicating CLNM(P<0.05).Multifactorial unconditional logistic regression showed that multifocal tumours(OR=3.487,95%CI:1.641~7.406,P=0.001),microcalcifications(OR=4.484,95%CI:2.113~9.516,P<0.001),equal or high enhancement(OR=3.187,95%CI:1.460~6.957,P=0.004),disruption of peritoneal continuity(OR=2.201,95%CI:1.051~4.608,P=0.036),and TERT promoter mutation positivity(OR=4.460,95%CI:2.132~10.103,P<0.001)were the independent risk factors for pTMC complicating CLNM.A contrast-enhanced ultrasound combined TERT promoter mutation nomogram model was constructed based on independent risk factors for pTMC complicating CLNM[Logit(p)=-4.486+1.350×number of foci+1.399×microcalcifications+2.124×intensity of enhancement+1.524×capsular continuity+2.175×TERT promoter mutations].The C-index of this nomogram model was 0.899(95%CI:0.893~0.905),the calibra-tion curve alignment was close to the ideal curve,the decision curve was higher than the two extreme curves,and the Hosmer-Lemeshow test showed a P>0.05.The ROC curve analysis showed that the nomogram model constructed with contrast-enhanced ultrasound combined with TERT promoter mutations predicted CLNM in pTMC with an area under the curve of 0.899.This was significantly higher than the area under the curves for contrast-enhanced ultra-sound alone(0.857)and TERT promoter mutations alone(0.697)(P<0.05).Conclusion The contrast-enhanced ultrasound combined with TERT promoter mutations to construct a nomogram model has high predictive efficiency for pTMC complicating CLNM.
3.Research progress on oral health-related quality of life in pregnant women
Chinese Journal of Perinatal Medicine 2025;28(9):803-807
Pregnant women are more susceptible to a decline in oral health-related quality of life (OHRQoL), influenced by a combination of cognitive-behavioral, physiological-pathological, and social support factors. Longitudinal studies have been conducted internationally on top of existing cross-sectional studies, exploring multidimensional determinants with an emphasis on quantitative methods. In contrast, domestic studies remain predominantly cross-sectional, with a limited scope of analysis on the contributing factors of OHRQoL. Current interventions targeting OHRQoL in pregnant women are scarce both domestically and globally. The Oral Health Impact Profile-14 (OHIP-14) is the most widely used tool for assessing OHRQoL in this population. This review synthesizes existing research progress on OHRQoL, aiming to provide insights for improving maternal OHRQoL and guiding future research.

Glycosylation modification is an important post-translational modification of proteins, which participates in regulating protein half-life, biological activity, and immunogenicity, thereby affecting their functions. Glycoproteins expressed in Pichia pastoris predominantly carry high-mannose type glycans, primarily composed of mannose residues, which starkly contrasts with the complex-type glycans synthesized by mammalian cells. This study aims to transform the high mannose glycosylation modification of P. pastoris into a hybrid glycosylation modification similar to that of mammalian cells through genetic engineering technology. We introduced the mannosidase Ⅰ gene (MDSⅠ) from Trichoderma viride and the human β-1,2-N-acetylglucosaminyltransferase I gene (GnTⅠ) into a previously constructed P. pastoris strain (∆och1) capable of producing Man8GlcNAc2 glycans. To precisely regulate the expression of MDSⅠ and GnTⅠ, we designed various promoter combinations, including the strong inducible AOX promoter and the constitutive GAP promoter. The receptor-binding domain (RBD, residues 377-588) of the spike protein from the Middle East respiratory syndrome coronavirus (MERS-CoV) was selected as the reporter protein for this investigation (MERS-RBD). The N-glycosylation profile of MERS-RBD was systematically analyzed using PNGase F digestion coupled with mass spectrometry. The results showed that after the knockout of och1 and the introduction of MDSⅠ and GnTⅠ genes with different promoter combinations, P. pastoris strains capable of producing GlcNAcMan5GlcNAc2 glycans were successfully generated. When the AOX promoter was used to control the MDSⅠ gene and the GAP promoter was used to control the GnTⅠ gene, the engineered strain exhibited the highest proportion of hybrid-type GlcNAcMan5GlcNAc2 glycans, which accounted for 68.38% of the total N-glycosylation. In conclusion, we successfully engineered a P. pastoris strain capable of synthesizing hybrid-type GlcNAcMan5GlcNAc2 glycans, establishing a foundation for subsequent research on the biosynthesis of complex-type N-glycans in P. pastoris.

Objective:To explore the effect of social cognition and interaction training (SCIT) combined with transcranial magnetic stimulation (TMS) on intrinsic motivation and social cognition in patients with schizophrenia.Methods:Forty-two stable schizophrenia patients were randomly divided into the SCIT + TMS group( n=22) and the SCIT group( n=20). All the subjects received 20 sessions of SCIT treatment, and the SCIT+ TMS group simultaneously received 15 sessions of intermittent theta burst stimulation(iTBS) over the left dorsolateral prefrontal cortex(DLPFC). All the subjects were assessed by intrinsic motivation inventory for schizophrenia research(IMI-SR), Chinese version of the ambiguous intentions hostility questionnaire(AIHQ-C), theory of mind-picture sequencing task(ToM-PST), mentalization scale (MentS), Chinese version of interpersonal reactivity index (IRI-C) and positive and negative syndrome scale (PANSS) before and after intervention. SPSS 26.0 software was used for data analysis.Wilcoxon signed-rank test was used for intra-group comparison before and after treatment, while Mann-Whitney U test and covariance analysis were used for inter-group comparison.Spearman correlation analysis and Logistic regression analyses were used to explore the association between the intrinsic motivation and social cognition. Results:There were no significant differences on IMI-SR scores before and after treatment between the two groups(all P>0.05). In the SCIT+ TMS group, the total score of hostility bias (HB), HB scores in ambiguous scenes, HB scores in intentional scenes, and aggressive bias (AB) scores in ambiguous scenes of AIHQ-C scale after treatment were lower than those befor treatment( Z=-2.044--3.112, all P<0.05), while the total score of ToM-PST(18.50(16.00, 21.00) vs 15.50(11.75, 18.00), Z=-2.598, P=0.009) and IRI-C imagination score (12.18±3.79, 14.41±4.73, t=-2.694, P=0.014) were higher than those before treatment.In the SCIT group, the total score of ToM-PST after treatment was higher than that before treatment(21.00(20.00, 22.00) vs 17.00(14.50, 20.75), Z=-2.518, P=0.012).There was no significant statistical difference in MentS scores between after treatment and before treatment ( P>0.05). The difference in AIHQ-C intentional scenario AB score before and after treatment was higher in the SCIT+ TMS group than in the SCIT group ( Z=-1.996, P=0.046), while there was no statistically significant difference in the difference before and after treatment in social cognitive scores between the two groups (all P>0.05).In the combined two samples, Spearman correlation analysis showed that the total score of IMI-SR before treatment was positively correlated with the primary belief score of ToM-PST understanding, reciprocity score, MentS total score, other person mentalization score, motivation mentalization score, IRI-C total score, viewpoint taking score, and empathy concern score after treatment( r=0.341-0.509, all P<0.05), while negatively correlated with AIHQ-C total score and factor scores ( r=-0.434--0.645, P<0.05).Logistic regression analysis showed that the total score of IMI-SR had negative impact on AIHQ-C total HB score( B=-0.047, OR=0.954, 95% CI=0.917-0.993).The value score had a positive impact on the total score of MentS ( B=0.143, OR=1.154, 95% CI=1.043-1.277), other person mentalization score( B=0.166, OR=1.181, 95% CI=1.058-1.318), motivation mentalization score( B=0.111, OR=1.117, 95% CI=1.021-1.223), IRI-C total score ( B=0.138, OR=1.148, 95% CI=1.038-1.270), and viewpoint taking score( B=0.194, OR=1.214, 95% CI=1.076-1.369). Interest score had a positive impact on IRI-C empathy concern score ( B=0.098, OR=1.103, 95% CI=0.998-1.218) and ToM-PST understanding primary belief score( B=0.130, OR=1.138, 95% CI=1.010-1.283) and reciprocity score( B=0.189, OR=1.208, 95% CI=1.057-1.380). Conclusion:The research results did not confirm the effect of TMS over the DLPFC on enhancing intrinsic motivation, as well as the synergistic effect of SCIT treatment on social cognition. But the correlation results indicates that improving schizophrenia patients' intrinsic motivation level in cognitive training is meaningful for promoting social cognition.

Objective:To explore the mediating effect of frailty between stress perception and kinesiophobia in elderly patients after temporary cardiac pacemaker implantation.Methods:A total of 129 elderly patients who underwent temporary cardiac pacemaker implantation surgery in the Department of Cardiovascular Medicine of the First Affiliated Hospital of Zhengzhou University from February 2023 to April 2024 were selected by convenience sampling method, and were surveyed by the general information questionnaire, the exercise fear scale, the perceived stress scale and the Chinese Tilburg frailty scale.The t test, one-way ANOVA and non parametric test were used to analyze the data by SPSS 29.0 software.The macro program PROCESS was used to construct and test the mediation model. Results:The total score of kinesiophobia was (41.08±2.77), the total score of stress perception was (36.22±3.07), and the total score of frailty was (11.19±1.53) in elderly patients after temporary cardiac pacemaker implantation. The total score of kinesiophobia was positively correlated with the total score of stress perception ( r=0.383, P<0.01), the total score of kinesiophobia was positively correlated with the total score of frailty ( r=0.451, P<0.01), and the total score of stress perception was positively correlated with the total score of frailty ( r=0.289, P<0.01).The total effect of stress perception on motor fear was 0.359 ( P<0.01) and the direct effect was 0.226 ( P<0.01).Frailty played a partial mediating role between stress perception and kinesiophbia in elderly patients after temporary pacemaker implantation, with an indirect effect of 0.133 (95% CI=0.062-0.243), accounting for 37.05% of the total effect. Conclusion:Stress perception not only directly affects kinesiophobia in elderly patients with temporary cardiac pacemaker implantation, but also indirectly affects kinesiophobia through frailty.

Objective:To investigate the effects of sampling methods on pathological assessment of resected non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) specimen with tumor maximum diameter >3 cm after neoadjuvant therapy.Methods:NSCLC patients with a large tumor (diameter >3 cm) that were resected after neoadjuvant therapy from June 2020 to July 2023 were retrospectively collected in the Department of Pathology, Shanghai Pulmonary Hospital, Shanghai, China. Sampling methods of the tumor bed were performed in accordance with the international and Chinese experts recommendations for resection specimens following neoadjuvant therapy (recommended sampling method, RSM), and all remaining tumor bed lesions were completely sampled after recommended sampling (complete sampling method, CSM). The difference of pathological response assessment of residual viable tumor (RVT) between RSM and CSM was examined.Results:A total of 90 cases were identified and analyzed, including 39 cases of squamous cell carcinoma and 51 cases of adenocarcinoma, treated with neoadjuvant therapy including chemotherapy in 22 cases (24.4%), targeted therapy in 14 cases (15.6%), and chemoimmunotherapy in 54 cases (60.0%). There were 62 males and 28 females with an average age of (62.7±17.9) years. The average tumor maximum diameter was 4.3 cm (range, 3.1-8.0 cm). The average number of sampled blocks was 8 blocks (range, 5 to 16) and 15 blocks (range, 8 to 36) per case by RSM and CSM, respectively. According to the definition of major pathological response (MPR) in which RVT is ≤10%, the numbers of patients with MPR were 34 cases by RSM and 30 cases by CSM, respectively. Four cases showed inconsistent RVT between the two methods, including one case of squamous cell carcinoma and three cases of adenocarcinoma. The RVT of the four inconsistent cases was 7%, 7%, 5% and 9% (MPR by RSM), and 15%, 15%, 15% and 20% (non-MPR by CSM), respectively. The kappa values of MPR consistency evaluated by the two sampling methods were 0.893 for all cases, 0.906 for squamous cell carcinoma cases and 0.751 for adenocarcinoma cases. According to MPR cut-off of 65% for invasive primary adenocarcinoma, 24 cases and 20 cases achieved MPR by RSM and CSM, respectively. Of the four inconsistent cases, the RVT by RSM was 60% in three cases and 65% in one case (MPR), whereas the RVT by CSM was 70% in three cases and 75% in one case (non-MPR). The kappa value of the two sampling methods was 0.741.Conclusions:There is high consistency between RSM and CSM in the pathological assessment of post-treatment responses in resected NSCLC specimens with tumor maximum diameter larger than 3 cm. When the percentage of RVT cells is close to MPR, re-evaluation of the specimen is required and CSM may be necessary to accurately evaluate the degree of pathological remission, assist in clinical postoperative treatment, and predict patient prognosis.
