Objective: To establish a prediction model for high-risk cardiovascular disease (CVD) among residents aged 35 to 75 years, so as to provide the basis for improving CVD prevention and control measures. Methods: Permanent residents aged 35 to 75 years were selected from Dongcheng District, Beijing Municipality using the stratified random sampling method from 2018 to 2023. Demographic information, lifestyle, waist circumference and blood biochemical indicators were collected through questionnaire surveys, physical examinations and laboratory tests. Influencing factors for high-risk CVD among residents aged 35 to 75 years were identified using a multivariable logistic regression model, and a prediction model for high-risk CVD was established. The predictive effect was evaluated using the receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve. Results: A total of 6 968 individuals were surveyed, including 2 821 males (40.49%) and 4 147 females (59.51%), and had a mean age of (59.92±9.33) years. There were 1 155 high-risk CVD population, with a detection rate of 16.58%. Multivariable logistic regression analysis showed that gender, age, smoking, central obesity, systolic blood pressure, fasting blood glucose, triglyceride and low-density lipoprotein cholesterol were influencing factors for high-risk CVD among residents aged 35 to 75 years (all P<0.05). The area under the ROC curve of the established prediction model was 0.849 (95%CI: 0.834-0.863), with a sensitivity of 0.693 and a specificity of 0.863, indicating good discrimination. Conclusion The model constructed by eight factors including demographic characteristics, lifestyle and blood biochemical indicators has good predictive value for high-risk CVD among residents aged 35 to 75 years.

ObjectiveTo investigate the mechanism of Naoxintong capsules on ischemia-reperfusion （I/R） injury in rats based on the changes of pericytes mediated by Ras homolog family member A （RHOA）/Rho-associated coiled-coil containing protein kinase 1 （ROCK1） pathway. MethodsNinety rats （15 rats for each group） were randomly divided into a sham operation group， a model group， a positive control group receiving Ginkgo biloba extract （21.6 mg·kg^-1）， and groups receiving Naoxintong capsules at low， medium， and high doses of 55， 110， and 220 mg·kg^-1 （NXT-L， NXT-M， and NXT-H groups）， respectively. Except for those in the sham operation group， all rats were subjected to transient middle cerebral artery occlusion （tMCAO） to establish the experiment model. Nerve function was assessed using a neurological function score. Cerebral blood flow was detected using a laser speckle contrast imager， and the cerebral infarction rate was calculated using 2，3，5-Triphenyl tetrazolium chloride （TTC） staining. Pathological changes were observed by hematoxylin-eosin （HE） staining and Nissl staining， while pericyte morphology was observed via transmission electron microscopy. Blood-brain barrier destruction was observed by Evans blue staining. Albumin and ischemia-modified albumin levels were measured using assay kits. Real-time fluorescence quantitative polymerase chain reaction （Real-time PCR） and Western blot were used to detect the mRNA and protein expression levels of RHOA， ROCK1， platelet-derived growth factor receptor β （PDGFRB）， α-smooth muscle actin （α-SMA）， tight junction protein （ZO-1）， matrix metalloproteinase-2 （MMP-2）， and matrix metalloproteinase-9 （MMP-9）. ResultsCompared with the sham operation group， the model group exhibited decreased neurological function scores， higher percentage reduction in blood flow， and increased cerebral infarction rates （P<0.01）. Additionally， cortical neuronal nucleus shrinkage， edema， a decreased number of Nissl bodies， reduced pericyte area， elevated albumin content in the cortex （P<0.05）， and increased ischemic modified albumin levels （P<0.01） were observed. The mRNA and protein expression levels of RHOA， ROCK1， PDGFRB， α-SMA， MMP-2， and MMP-9 were increased （P<0.01）， while those of ZO-1 were decreased. Compared with the model group， all treatment groups showed improved neurological function scores， lower percentage reduction in blood flow， reduced cerebral infarction rates （P<0.01）， alleviated cortical histological changes， increased number of Nissl bodies， expanded pericyte area， decreased albumin content in the cortex， and reduced ischemia-modified albumin levels （P<0.01）. The mRNA and protein expression levels of RHOA， ROCK1， PDGFRB， α-SMA， MMP-2， and MMP-9 were decreased （P<0.01）， while those of ZO-1 were increased. Among the treatment groups， the NXT-M group showed the most pronounced improvement in cerebral I/R injury. ConclusionNaoxintong capsules can restore cerebral blood supply， reduce microcirculation disturbance， and protect blood-brain barrier in rats with I/R injury. Its mechanism of action may be related to the inhibition of the RHOA/ROCK1 signaling pathway and reduced pericyte contraction.

Objective: To identify the core symptoms and bridge symptoms in the network structure among adolescents bullying victimization, anxiety and depressive symptoms, and to explore the interrelationships among these three variables, so as to provide a basis for the precise prevention of bullying behaviors and the improvement of adolescents psychological health conditions. Methods: From October to November 2023, a stratified cluster random sampling method was employed to select 4 759 middle and high school students from four cities in Guangxi: Beihai, Guigang, Hechi, and Laibin. The Chinese version of the Olweus Bully/Victim Questionnaire (OBVQ) was used to assess bullying victimization among adolescents, while the Generalized Anxiety Disorder-7 (GAD-7) and the Patient Health Questionnaire-9 (PHQ-9) were utilized to assess anxiety and depressive symptoms, respectively. The Bootnet package (version 1.6) in R software (version 4.4.1) was used to construct a network structure and analyze the associations between bullying victimization, anxiety symptoms and depressive symptoms among adolescents. Results: The reporting rates of depressive symptoms, anxiety symptoms, and bullying victimization among adolescents in Guangxi were 24.67%, 16.33%, and 16.58%, respectively. Network analysis revealed that the node with the highest expected influence was "property being taken or damaged", with a standardized expected influence (EI) index of 2.09. The top two nodes in terms of bridge expected influence were "thoughts of self harm or suicide" and "irritability", with standardized bridge expected influence (BEI) indices of 2.15 and 1.27, respectively. The stronger associations were observed between the node "property being taken or damaged" and the nodes "physical attacks such as hitting, kicking, pushing, or shoving" and "ridiculed due to accent", with edge weights of 0.43 and 0.35, respectively. Conclusion Targeting preventive measures against the symptoms with the highest expected influence and bridge expected influence in the network of bullying victimization, anxiety and depressive symptoms among adolescents may be an effective approach to reduce the negative impact of bullying victimization, anxiety and depressive symptoms on adolescents.

Alzheimer's disease (AD) is the major form of dementia in the elderly and is closely related to the toxic effects of microglia sustained activation. In AD, sustained microglial activation triggers impaired synaptic pruning, neuroinflammation, neurotoxicity, and cognitive deficits. Accumulating evidence has demonstrated that aberrant expression of deubiquitinating enzymes is associated with regulating microglia function. Here, we use RNA sequencing to identify a deubiquitinase YOD1 as a regulator of microglial function and AD pathology. Further study showed that YOD1 knockout significantly improved the migration, phagocytosis, and inflammatory response of microglia, thereby improving the cognitive impairment of AD model mice. Through LC-MS/MS analysis combined with Co-IP, we found that Myosin heavy chain 9 (MYH9), a key regulator maintaining microglia homeostasis, is an interacting protein of YOD1. Mechanistically, YOD1 binds to MYH9 and maintains its stability by removing the K48 ubiquitin chain from MYH9, thereby mediating the microglia polarization signaling pathway to mediate microglia homeostasis. Taken together, our study reveals a specific role of microglial YOD1 in mediating microglia homeostasis and AD pathology, which provides a potential strategy for targeting microglia to treat AD.

Objective: To assess the impact of long-term antiretroviral therapy (ART) on human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) blood screening outcomes in post-exposure prophylaxis (PEP) failure cases through a longitudinal analysis of blood screening results over a 7-year period in a patient with HIV PEP failure. Methods: This study conducted 13 follow-up assessments for a high-risk individual who initiated ART shortly after exposure. The effectiveness of various blood screening methods, including immunological assays and nucleic acid testing (NAT), was analyzed. Blood samples were also tested with HIV RNA quantification testing, Western blot (WB) confirmation testing, chemiluminescence immunoassay (CLIA), and HIV rapid tests utilizing gold and selenium labels. A comprehensive analysis was performed to evaluate the changes in diagnostic capabilities of different testing methods for HIV biomarkers over an extended period following PEP failure. Results: The patient had two high-risk exposures: one day before ART initiation (BA1) and seven days preceding treatment (BA7). On the first day after the ART treatment (AA1), the HIV RNA concentration (viral load) was 9.07×10 copies/mL; by day five (AA5), the viral load decreased to 1.04×10 copies/mL. At day eleven (AA11), NAT and ELISA tests were both positive, with the WB result remaining indeterminate (gp160+). At day 48 (AA48), the S/CO value of the fourth generation ELISA reagent was 1.07, while results from a 6-sample pool and quantitative NAT were negative. However, a single sample NAT returned a positive result and WB tests indicated positivity for p17, p24, and gp160. At AA74, the quantitative NAT rebounded to 2.83×10 copies/mL, with positive NAT results for single and 6-sample pool NAT tests. The S/CO values of the imported and domestic ELISA reagents were 3.39 and 23.44, respectively. At AA201, 6-sample pool and quantitative NAT were negative again, while single sample NAT remained positive. From AA319 to AA2221, all NAT results have remained consistently below the minimum detection limit. At AA2221, S/CO values of the imported and domestic ELISA reagents were 3.47 and 23.44, respectively. Conclusion: The findings indicate that patients experiencing PEP failure after high-risk HIV exposure are at a higher risk of being missed by mixed-sample NAT pools and individual serological tests. Nonetheless, anti-HIV antibody levels are sustained at elevated values for an extended duration, underscoring antibody testing as an effective measure for blood screening.

With the advancement of space exploration missions,space station operations have entered a routine phase,where single-flight missions last up to six months.Previous studies indicate that the spaceflight environment severely compromises the immune system,increasing the susceptibility to diseases.As primary responders to pathogenic challenges,immune cells exhibit exceptional sensitivity to gravitational alterations and background ionizing radiation in space,with their dysfunction being a critical health risk.For innate immunity,the complex space environment disrupts macrophage polarization and phagocytosis,neutrophil chemotaxis and killing,natural killer(NK)cell cytotoxicity,and dendritic cell maturation,leading to functional impairment of innate immune defenses.For adaptive immunity,microgravity and radiation induce cellular immune dysregulation by suppressing T cell proliferative capacity and perturbing Th1/Th2/Treg subset balance,while simultaneously undermining humoral immunity through interference with B-lymphocyte protein synthesis,blockade of developmental maturation,and reduction of effector B cell populations.This review summarizes recent advances in understanding space environment-induced immune perturbations and protection options using traditional Chinese medicine,focusing on microgravity and radiation.It not only deciphers molecular mechanisms underpinning immune cell dysfunction but also provides a theoretical foundation and drug-targeting strategies for developing countermeasures against spaceflight-specific immune dysfunction.

Background Under the backdrop of the national innovation-driven development strategy, the increasing occupational stress and job burnout among employees are noteworthy for their impact on employees' subjective well-being. Objective To clarify the status, distribution characteristics, and the relationship between subjective well-being, occupational stress, and job burnout of employees in research and development (R&D) enterprises, in order to improve their subjective well-being. Methods A total of 3366 employees from R&D departments at 7 enterprises in Minhang District of Shanghai were selected. The well-being level of the research subjects was investigated by using the World Health Organization Well-Being Index (WHO-5) that yielded total scores from 0 to 25, and a higher total score indicated a higher well-being level; the levels of occupational stress and job burnout were investigated by using the Chinese version of the Job Content Questionnaire, and the Chinese version of the Maslach Burnout Inventory-General Survey (MBI-GS). The scores of WHO-5, JDC, and MBI-GS were incorporated into structural equation modeling (SEM) as numerical variables to analyze their relationship. Results The scores of subjective well-being, occupational stress, and job burnout of employees in the R&D enterprises were 13.30±6.09, 1.12±0.45, and 2.18±1.12, respectively. The positive rates of occupational stress and job burnout were 44.4% and 70.9% respectively, and the positive rate of severe job burnout was 11.7%. There were statistically significant differences in the score of subjective well-being among the participants by gender, age, educational level, marital status, registered residence, working seniority, and jobs (P<0.05); there were statistically significant differences in the positive rate of occupational stress by gender, educational level, marital status, working seniority, and jobs (P<0.05); there were statistically significant differences in the positive rate of job burnout by gender, age, educational level, marital status, registered residence, working seniority, and jobs (P<0.05). There was a negative correlation between subjective well-being and occupational stress (r=−0.1747, P < 0.01), a negative correlation between subjective well-being and job burnout (r=−0.2987, P < 0.01), and a positive correlation between occupational stress and job burnout (r=0.3342, P < 0.01). A structural equation containing partial mediating effect of job burnout on the relationship between occupational stress and subjective well-being was established, and the partial effect accounting for 52.5% of the total effect. Conclusion The job burnout among employees in R&D companies partially mediates the impact of occupational stress on subjective well-being. Reducing the level of job burnout will help alleviate occupational stress and thus improve employees' subjective well-being.
