[摘 要] 目的：探讨环状RNA CEMIP（circCEMIP）对膀胱癌UMUC-3细胞增殖、迁移和侵袭的影响及其分子机制。方法：通过TCGA数据库分析circCEMIP在膀胱癌组织中的表达水平，分析其表达与膀胱癌患者临床分期及生存期的关系。采用qPCR法检测circCEMIP在膀胱癌细胞5637、UMUC-3、MGH-U3、J82和T24中的表达。利用RNA干扰技术，分别将si-circCEMIP及其阴性对照（si-NC）、anti-miR-335及其阴性对照（anti-miR-NC）转染UMUC-3细胞，记为si-circCEMIP组、si-NC组、si-circCEMIP + anti-miR-335组和si-circCEMIP + anti-miR-NC组。采用克隆形成实验、划痕愈合实验和Transwell实验分别检测circCEMIP和miR-335表达对UMUC-3细胞增殖、迁移和侵袭能力的影响，双萤光素酶报告基因实验验证circCEMIP与miR-335的靶向关系，WB法检测细胞中VEGF-C信号通路相关蛋白的表达。构建UMUC-3细胞裸鼠皮下移植瘤模型，观察敲低circCEMIP对移植瘤生长的影响。结果：膀胱癌组织中circCEMIP呈高表达（P < 0.01），其表达水平与膀胱癌的临床分期正相关（P < 0.01），circCEMIP高表达患者生存率较低（P < 0.01）。circCEMIP在膀胱癌5637、UMUC-3、MGH-U3、J82和T24细胞中呈高表达（均P < 0.01）。敲低circCEMIP显著降低UMUC-3细胞的增殖、迁移和侵袭能力（均P < 0.01）。circCEMIP可靶向结合miR-335（P < 0.01），敲低circCEMIP能显著上调miR-335表达（P < 0.01）。抑制miR-335表达能逆转敲低circCEMIP对UMUC-3细胞增殖、迁移和侵袭的抑制作用（均P < 0.01）。敲低circCEMIP能明显下调VEGF-C信号通路相关蛋白VEGF-C、MMP-2、MMP-9和β-catenin表达（均P < 0.01），抑制miR-335表达能部分逆转敲低circCEMIP对该通路相关蛋白表达的抑制作用（均P < 0.01）。体内实验证实，敲低circCEMIP能够抑制裸鼠膀胱癌移植瘤的生长（P < 0.01）。结论：敲低circCEMIP通过上调miR-335表达抑制膀胱癌UMUC-3细胞的增殖、迁移和侵袭。

Objective To explore the impact of number of positive regional lymph nodes (nPRLN) in N1 stage on the prognosis of non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) patients. Methods Patients with TxN1M0 stage NSCLC who underwent lobectomy and mediastinal lymph node dissection from 2010 to 2015 were screened from SEER database (17 Regs, 2022nov sub). The optimal cutoff value of nPRLN was determined using X-tile software, and patients were divided into 2 groups according to the cutoff value: a nPRLN≤optimal cutoff group and a nPRLN>optimal cutoff group. The influence of confounding factors was minimized by propensity score matching (PSM) at a ratio of 1 : 1. Kaplan-Meier curves and Cox proportional hazards models were used to evaluate overall survival (OS) and lung cancer-specific survival (LCSS) of patients. Results A total of 1316 patients with TxN1M0 stage NSCLC were included, including 662 males and 654 females, with a median age of 67 (60, 73) years. The optimal cutoff value of nPRLN was 3, with 1165 patients in the nPRLN≤3 group and 151 patients in the nPRLN>3 group. After PSM, there were 138 patients in each group. Regardless of before or after PSM, OS and LCSS of patients in the nPRLN≤3 group were superior to those in the nPRLN>3 group (P<0.001). N1 stage nPRLN>3 was an independent prognostic risk factor for OS [HR=1.52, 95%CI (1.22, 1.89), P<0.001] and LCSS [HR=1.72, 95%CI (1.36, 2.18), P<0.001]. Conclusion N1 stage nPRLN>3 is an independent prognostic risk factor for NSCLC patients in TxN1M0 stage, which may provide new evidence for future revision of TNM staging N1 stage subclassification.

Objective The study aimed to elucidate the population composition and seasonal distribution characteristics of mosquitoes in Laoshan District, Qingdao City, providing a scientific basis for the prevention and control of mosquito-borne infectious diseases. Methods Mosquito surveillance was conducted in Laoshan District in Qingdao City using light traps from April to November 2020-2022. Dominant mosquito species were identified using the Berger-Parker dominance index(I)and mosquito density was compared using the Kruskal-Wallis H test. The seasonal distribution characteristics of adult mosquitoes were analyzed using concentration and circular distribution method. Spearman rank correlation analysis was used to study the relationship between mosquito populations and meteorological factors with mean monthly temperature, mean monthly relative humidity, and mean monthly rainfall. Results The mean mosquito density for the trapping period was 9.771 females/(trap·night)in 2020,9.771 in 2021, and 9.427 in 2022. There was no statistically significant difference in mosquito density between different years(H = 0.095, P = 0.954). In total, 2 781 adult female mosquitoes comprising five species from four genera were captured over three years. Culex pipiens(I = 0.654), Aedes albopictus(I = 0.202), and Aedes aegypti(I = 0.118)were identified as dominant species. Seasonal fluctuations in the adult mosquitoes were unimodal, and primarily concentrated from June to September. The peak period of adult mosquito varied between years with statistical significance. (F = 3.838, P ＜ 0.05). Mosquito density was highly correlated with mean monthly temperature, mean monthly relative humidity and mean monthly precipitation(P＜ 0.05). Conclusions Cx. pipiens pallens, Ae. albopictus, and Ar. inamoratus are the dominant mosquito species in the Laoshan District of Qingdao City. The activity of adult mosquitoes is seasonal, and primarily concentrated in summer and autumn, during which the risk of mosquito-borne diseases such as dengue fever is increased.

Objective To investigate the current status of sleep disorders in patients with Alzheimer’s disease (AD) and its relationship with physical activity, and analyze the intervention effect of light therapy. Methods A total of 345 patients with AD admitted to the First Affiliated Hospital of Air Force Medical University from June 2020 to June 2025 were included. The Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index (PSQI) was used to evaluate the sleep disorders, and the Physical Activity Scale for the Elderly (PASE) was applied to evaluate the physical activity. Pearson correlation analysis model was adopted to analyze the correlation between PSQI and PASE in patients with AD. 345 patients with AD were treated with light therapy intervention for 4 weeks. The changes of PSQI and PASE scores were compared before and after intervention. Results Among the 345 patients with AD, 251 cases had sleep disorders, accounting for 72.75% (251/345), and the PSQI score was (9.87±2.95) points. The scores of leisure activity, housework and occupation-related activity of PASE were (25.81±6.12) points, (78.15±12.93) points, and (45.31±8.74) points, respectively. Pearson correlation analysis model revealed that the leisure activity score of PASE was negatively correlated with the PSQI score (P<0.05), and the scores of housework and occupation-related activity were not significantly correlated with the PSQI score (P>0.05). After 4 weeks of light therapy intervention, the score of leisure activity of patients was increased significantly (P<0.05), while the scores of housework and occupation-related activity did not change significantly (P>0.05), and the PSQI scores were decreased significantly (P<0.05). Conclusion There is a correlation between sleep disorders and leisure time and physical activity in patients with Alzheimer&#39;s disease. The implementation of light therapy intervention can effectively improve sleep disorders in AD patients.

Objective To establish an individualized nomogram model and evaluate its efficacy to provide a possible evaluation basis for the prognosis of lower third and abdominal part of oesophageal adenocarcinoma (EAC). Methods Lower third and abdominal part of EAC patients from 2010 to 2015 were chosen from the SEER Research Plus Database (17 Regs, 2022nov sub). The patients were randomly allocated to the training cohort and the internal validation cohort with a ratio of 7∶3 using bootstrap resampling. The Cox proportional hazards regression analysis was used to determine significant contributors to overall survival (OS) in EAC patients, which would be elected to construct the nomogram prediction model. C-index, calibration curve and receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve were performed to evaluate its efficacy. Finally, the efficacy to evaluate the OS of EAC patients was compared between the nomogram prediction model and TNM staging system. Results In total, 3945 patients with lower third and abdominal part of EAC were enrolled, including 3475 males and 470 females with a median age of 65 (57-72) years. The 2761 patients were allocated to the training cohort and the remaining 1184 patients to the internal validation cohort. In the training and the internal validation cohorts, the C-index of the nomogram model was 0.705 and 0.713, respectively. Meanwhile, the calibration curve also suggested that the nomogram model had a strong capability of predicting 1-, 3-, and 5-year OS rates of EAC patients. The nomogram also had a higher efficacy than the TNM staging system in predicting 1-, 3-, and 5-year OS rates of EAC patients. Conclusion This nomogram prediction model has a high efficiency for predicting OS in the patients with lower third and abdominal part of EAC, which is higher than that of the current TNM staging system.

Objective To explore the mediating role of activities of daily living (ADL) in pain and depressive symptoms in the elderly in China. Methods Utilizing the data from 2020 China Health and Retirement Longitudinal Study, 4403 Chinese elderly individuals aged ≥ 60 years old were selected as the research subjects. Depression Scale (CES-D 10) of the Center for Epidemiological Survey and ADL scale were used in the study. The PROCESS4.1 macro was used to test the mediating effect of daily living activities between pain and depressive symptoms, and the Bootstrap method was applied for verification of the mediating variables. Results A total of 2368 cases of depressive symptoms were detected in the elderly in China, with a detection rate of 53.78%. Pain was positively correlated with depressive symptoms (r=0.27, P<0.01), and activities of daily living were negatively correlated with pain and depressive symptoms (r=-0.27, -0.337, P<0.01). The results showed that the total effect value of pain on depressive symptoms was 0.33, the direct effect value was 0.24, and the mediating effect value of daily living activities was 0.09, accounting for 27.27%. Conclusion Pain and activities of daily living are important factors influencing depressive symptoms in the elderly, and activities of daily living play a partial mediating role in the relationship between pain and depressive symptoms in the elderly.

As an important strategy in antiviral drug development, nucleoside analogs (NAs) have attracted considerable attention due to their unique mechanisms of action and favorable safety profile. This review systematically summarizes recent advances in the mechanisms of action of NAs, focusing on the following four aspects: (1) Targeting viral polymerases, inhibiting viral replication through mechanisms such as non-absolute termination, delayed chain termination and induction of viral RNA mutations in addition to classical chain termination, which has been newly discovered; (2) Regulating RNA methylation modifications—for instance, competitively inhibiting methyltransferases, which significantly reduces viral replication efficiency; (3) Depleting nucleotide pools—by affecting host cell purine nucleotide synthesis pathways, thereby indirectly inhibiting viral replication; and (4) Immunomodulatory functions—including activation of the STING pathway to promote interferon production. Furthermore, this review systematically discusses the breakthrough progress in prodrug technologies for addressing key clinical challenges such as drug resistance and off-target toxicity of NAs. These advances provide crucial technical support for the clinical translation of NAs. These advances provide key technical support for the clinical translation of NAs. This review clarifies the multi-target action rules of NAs and provides a theoretical framework for the design of next-generation broad-spectrum antiviral agents.

Objective : To explore the polymorphism of endothelial nitric oxide synthase(eNOS) gene in umbilical cord blood of preterm infants and its relationship with major complications in preterm infants. Methods : A total of 254 preterm infants(<37 weeks) who were hospitalized were selected as the study subjects. Umbilical cord blood was collected at delivery to determine the genotypes and alleles of eNOS gene at three loci: rs61722009, rs2070744,and rs1799983. Clinical data of the preterm infants were recorded, and the relationship between eNOS gene polymorphism and major complications in preterm infants was analyzed. Results: (1) The TC+CC genotype at locus rs2070744 was an independent risk factor for bronchopulmonary dysplasia(BPD) in preterm infants, with an OR(95%CI) of 1.266(1.017-1.577).(2) The GT+TT genotype at locus rs1799983 was an independent risk factor for retinopathy prematurity(ROP), with an OR(95%CI) of 1.184(1.008-1.391).(3) The AB+AA genotype at locus rs61722009 was also an independent risk factor for ROP,with an OR(95%CI) of 1.335(1.033-1. 726).(4) There was no significant relationship between gene polymorphism and the occurrence of respiratory distress syndrome( RDS) and periventricular-intraventricular hemorrhage( PIVH). Conclusion eNOS gene polymorphism is associated with the occurrence of BPD and ROP in preterm infants. The evaluation of e NOS gene polymorphism by umbilical cord blood measurement is helpful for the prevention and correct management of some serious complications.
