Objective: To understand the awareness of chikungunya fever knowledge and its related factors among medical college students in Baise City, so as to provide a scientific basis to offer relevant courses and special education. Methods: From July to August 2025, 7 286 enrolled medical students were selected by a sampling method from a medical college in Baise City to participate in the questionnaire survey. The questionnaire covered epidemiological characteristics, clinical symptoms, and prevention/control knowledge of chikungunya fever. Statistical analyses including the Chi quare test and multivariate Logistic regression models were performed. Results: The overall awareness rate of chikungunya fever knowledge among the medical students was 18.89%. Among the knowledge items, the awareness rate of "the high incidence season" was the highest (84.05%), while that of "the infectious period" was the lowest (17.80%). Multivariate Logistic regression analysis showed that medical students with female (a OR= 1.37 , 95%CI =1.20- 1.57 ), the age for over 25 years old (a OR=1.76, 95%CI =1.05-2.93), whose father had a middle school educational level (a OR=1.18, 95%CI =1.05-1.31), and majored in preventive medicine (a OR=1.54, 95%CI =1.10-1.67) had relatively higher awareness rates of chikungunya fever knowledge (all P <0.05). In contrast, students of Zhuang ethnicity (a OR= 0.87 , 95%CI =0.76-0.98) and majoring in nursing (a OR=0.74, 95%CI =0.61-0.91) or pharmacy (a OR=0.70, 95%CI =0.52-0.95) had relatively lower awareness rates (all P <0.05). Conclusions The awareness rate of chikungunya fever related knowledge among medical college students in Baise City is relatively low. Schools should take targeted publicity measures to improve medical students awareness.

Primary biliary cholangitis （PBC） is a cholestatic autoimmune liver disease characterized by the injury of small intrahepatic bile ducts， and at present， the pathogenesis of PBC remains unclear. Recent studies have shown that bile acid metabolism disorder and gut microbiota imbalance play a key role in the development and progression of PBC， and they form a complex and dynamic interaction network via the “gut-liver axis” and regulate core physiopathological processes such as immune response， metabolic homeostasis， and inflammatory response in a synergistic manner. This article systematically elaborates on the abnormal features of bile acid metabolism and gut microbiota in PBC， discusses their synergistic mechanisms in PBC， and then proposes a combined strategy of targeting bile acid receptors and modulating gut microbiota， in order to overcome the limitations of current treatment modalities and provide new insights and directions for the clinical management of PBC.

Objective: To investigate the association between nighttime sleep duration, physical activity and disability among the elderly, so as to provide the basis for reduce the risk of disability and promote healthy aging. Methods: Based on the 2020 database of China Health and Retirement Longitudinal Study (CHARLS), demographic information, lifestyle behaviors, chronic diseases and nighttime sleep duration were collected from people aged 60 years and older. Physical activity level was evaluated using the International Physical Activity Questionnaire-Short. Disability status was measured using the basic Activities of Daily Living (ADL) scale. Association between nighttime sleep duration, physical activity and disability among the elderly were analyzed using multivariable logistic regression model. Results: Totally 11 126 elderly participants were enrolled, with 5 423 males (48.74%) and 5 703 females (51.26%). The mean age was (69.92±7.08) years. Among them, 6 838 individuals (61.46%) had a nighttime sleep duration of <7 hours, and 2 247 individuals (20.20%) had a physical activity level of <600 MET-min/week. A total of 3 213 individuals were identified as having disability, with a detection rate of 28.88%. Multivariable logistic regression analysis showed that, after adjusting for age, gender, marital status, education level, residence, smoking, alcohol consumption, and multimorbidity of chronic diseases, compared with a nighttime sleep duration of 7-8 hours, those with <7 hours (OR=1.535, 95%CI: 1.386-1.700) and >8 hours (OR=1.186, 95%CI: 1.003-1.402) had an increased risk of disability by 53.5% and 18.6%, respectively. Compared with a physical activity level of ≥600 MET-min/week, those with <600 MET-min/week (OR=2.106, 95%CI: 1.901-2.335) had an increased risk of disability by 110.6%. Compared with those who had a nighttime sleep duration of 7-8 hours and a physical activity level of ≥600 MET-min/week, the elderly with a nighttime sleep duration of <7 hours and a physical activity level of <600 MET-min/week (OR=3.299, 95%CI: 2.831-3.843), a nighttime sleep duration of >8 hours and a physical activity level of <600 MET-min/week (OR=2.566, 95%CI: 1.954-3.369), a nighttime sleep duration of 7-8 hours and a physical activity level of <600 MET-min/week (OR=1.911, 95%CI: 1.564-2.334), and a nighttime sleep duration of <7 hours and a physical activity level of ≥600 MET-min/week (OR=1.503, 95%CI: 1.334-1.692) had an increased risk of disability by 229.9%, 156.6%, 91.1%, and 50.3%, respectively. Conclusion Short or long nighttime sleep duration and low physical activity levels can increase the risk of disability in the elderly.

Objective To investigate the relationship between serum nesfatin-1(NSF-1)and soluble tumor necrosis factor receptor-Ⅰ(sTNFR-Ⅰ)with premature rupture of membrane(PROM)in patients with severe preeclampsia(SPE),and their effects on pregnancy outcomes.Methods A total of 84 patients diagnosed with SPE in the Obstetrics Department of The First Affiliated Hospital of Nanyang Medical College from April 2023 to April 2024 were selected and grouped into the PROM and non-PROM groups based on whether they had PROM.The pregnant women were separated into good and poor pregnancy groups based on their pregnancy outcomes.Logistic regres-sion analysis was performed to assess the factors influencing PROM in patients with SPE and adverse pregnancy outcomes in patients with PROM.Receiver operating characteristic(ROC)curves were plotted to analyze the value of serum NSF-1 and sTNFR-Ⅰ in the evaluation and prediction of PROM in patients with SPE,as well as adverse pregnancy outcomes in patients with PROM.Results Serum levels of NSF-1 and sTNFR-Ⅰ were significantly higher in the study group than in the control group(P＜0.05).In addition,serum levels of NSF-1 and sTNFR-Ⅰ were significantly higher in the PROM group than in the non-PROM group(P＜0.05).Logistic regression analysis showed that NSF-1 and sTNFR-Ⅰ were risk factors for PROM in patients with SPE(P＜0.05).Based on the ROC curve,the area under the ROC curve(AUC)of serum NSF-1 and sTNFR-Ⅰ levels combined to assess PROM in patients with SPE was 0.887,and the combination of the two was superior to their respective individual predictions(Z=2.601,Z=2.585,both P＜0.05).Serum levels of NSF-1 and sTNFR-Ⅰ in the poor pregnancy group were significantly higher than those in the good pregnancy group(P＜0.05).Logistic regression analysis showed that NSF-1 and sTNFR-Ⅰ levels were risk factors for adverse pregnancy outcomes in patients with PROM(P＜0.05).Based on the ROC curve,the AUC of the combination of serum NSF-1 and sTNFR-Ⅰ for predicting adverse pregnancy outcomes in patients with PROM was 0.908,and the combination of the two was better than their respective individual predictions(Z=2.534,Z=2.556,both P＜0.05).Conclusion Serum levels of NSF-1 and sTNFR-Ⅰ were significantly increased in patients with SPE,and both were related to PROM.Elevated levels of both proteins can increase the risk of adverse pregnancy outcomes.

Objective To investigate the effect and mechanism of miR-155-5p targeting suppressor of cytokine signaling 1(SOCS1)in regulating the Janus kinase 2(JAK2)/signal transducer and activator of transcrip-tion 3(STAT3)signaling pathway in renal injury associated with lupus nephritis(LN).Methods Thirty female MRL-faslpr lupus model mice were randomly divided into five groups(n=6 per group):the model group,the antagomir NC group,the miR-155-5p antagomir group,the miR-155-5p antagomir+shRNA control group,and the miR-155-5p antagomir+SOCS1 shRNA group.The mice were treated with adeno-associated virus vectors carrying miR-155-5p antagomir,antagomir NC,SOCS1 shRNA,or shRNA control.Additionally,six age-matched C57BL/6 mice served as a control group and received an equivalent volume of saline.Serum blood urea nitrogen(BUN)and creatinine(Scr)levels,renal histopathological changes,and the expression levels of miR-155-5p,SOCS1,phosphorylated JAK2(p-JAK2),and phosphorylated STAT3(p-STAT3)in renal tissues were evaluated.Results Compared with the normal group,the model group exhibited significantly elevated levels of BUN,Scr,miR-155-5p,p-JAK2,and p-STAT3 proteins in the kidneys(P<0.01),while the expression level of SOCS1 was markedly reduced(P<0.01).Compared with both the model group and the antagomir NC group,the miR-155-5p antagomir group showed decreased levels of BUN,Scr,miR-155-5p,p-JAK2,and p-STAT3 proteins(P<0.01),along with a significant increase in SOCS1 expression(P<0.01).Similarly,compared with the miR-155-5p antagomir group and the miR-155-5p antagomir+shRNA control group,the miR-155-5p antagomir+SOCS1 shRNA group demon-strated significantly higher levels of BUN,Scr,miR-155-5p,p-JAK2,and p-STAT3 proteins(P<0.01),while SOCS1 expression was notably decreased(P<0.01).Renal pathology analysis revealed that,compared to the normal group,the model group exhibited glomerular atrophy,extensive infiltration of inflammatory cells in the renal tubulointerstitial region,and partial renal tubular necrosis.In contrast,the miR-155-5p antagomir group showed marked improvements in glomerular atrophy,tubular necrosis,and inflammatory cell infiltration compared with the model group and antagomir NC group.Furthermore,compared with the miR-155-5p antagomir group and the miR-155-5p antagomir+shRNA control group,the miR-155-5p antagomir+SOCS1 shRNA group exhibited more severe glomerular atrophy,tubular necrosis,and inflammatory cell infiltration.Conclusion MiR-155-5p exacerbates renal damage in MRL-faslpr lupus model mice by targeting SOCS1,potentially through the activation of the JAK2/STAT3 signaling pathway.

Objective:To analyze the association between osteoporosis and the risk for Alzheimer's disease (AD).Methods:A total of 471 922 study subjects were selected from the UK Biobank database, including 12 818 osteoporosis cases and 459 104 controls. Cox proportional hazard regression model and competing risk model were used to evaluate the association between osteoporosis and AD after adjusting confounding factors. Furthermore, a Mendelian randomization (MR) study was conducted by using the data of two published genome-wide association studies, and 1 050 highly relevant single nucleotide polymorphisms were identified from the bone mineral density data as instrumental variables. The association between bone mineral density and the risk for AD was evaluated by using inverse variance weighted method, MR-Egger regression, and weighted median estimator method. Additionally, sensitivity analyses were performed.Results:After adjusting for confounders, no significant association between osteoporosis and an increased risk for AD was found in the cohort study (Cox proportional hazard regression model analysis: HR=1.10, 95% CI: 0.78-1.56, P=0.588). The MR analysis revealed no association between bone mineral density and the risk for AD (inverse-variance weighted: OR=1.03, 95% CI: 0.98-1.09, P=0.252), and the results remained robust in multiple sensitivity analyses. Conclusion:The study result does not support the association between osteoporosis and risk for AD.

BACKGROUND:Traumatic brain injury is a condition in which the normal function of the brain is disrupted by a bump or impact to the head.It is necessary to find effective treatments and objective targets that can help doctors diagnose the injury status and restore the brain function of patients. OBJECTIVE:To explore the effect of electroacupuncture combined with low-frequency transcranial ultrasound stimulation on the electroencephalographic signals of rats with traumatic brain injury. METHODS:Forty 6-week-old SPF male Sprague-Dawley rats were randomly divided into five groups:sham group,model group,electroacupuncture group,low-frequency transcranial ultrasound stimulation group and combined group(electroacupuncture+low-frequency transcranial ultrasound stimulation),with eight rats in each group.Feeney weight-drop method was used to establish the animal model of traumatic brain injury.In the sham group,the bone window was only opened without impact.Interventions were started at 1 day after modeling.Electroacupuncture in the electroacupuncture group,low-frequency transcranial ultrasound stimulation in the low-frequency transcranial ultrasound stimulation group,and electroacupuncture+low-frequency transcranial ultrasound stimulation in the combined group were performed for days in total.The modified neurological severity scale score for assessing rats'neurological deficits was performed at 8 hours after modeling.The percentage of spontaneous alternation behavior in the Y-maze was measured at 7 days after modeling.Then,the electroencephalographic signals were collected and electroencephalographic data of α,β,θ,and δ waves were extracted by fast Fourier transform,and the value of oscillation amplitude and energy ratio were calculated in α,β,θ,and δ waves,as well as the Lempel-Ziv complexity and sample entropy. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:Compared with the sham group,the modified neurological severity scale scores in the model group,electroacupuncture group,low-frequency transcranial ultrasound stimulation group and combined group were significantly increased at 8 hours after modeling(P<0.05).Compared with the sham group,the value of oscillation amplitude in δ wave and the value of δ energy ratio were significantly increased in the model group at 7 days after modeling,meanwhile the percentage of spontaneous alternation behavior in Y-maze,and the value of α/β energy ratio,Lempel-Ziv complexity,and sample entropy were significantly decreased(P<0.05).Compared with the model group,the value of oscillation amplitude in α and δ waves was significantly decreased in the combined group(P<0.05),while the value of α/β energy ratio was significantly increased(P<0.05)and the value of δ energy ratio was significantly decreased(P<0.05)in the electroacupuncture group,low-frequency transcranial ultrasound stimulation group and combined group.Compared with the electroacupuncture group and low-frequency transcranial ultrasound stimulation group,the value of δ energy ratio was significantly decreased in the combined group(P<0.05),while the percentage of spontaneous alternation behavior,the value of α/β energy ratio,the Lempel-Ziv complexity,and the sample entropy were significantly increased(P<0.05).To conclude,abnormal electroencephalographic signals can appear in rats with traumatic brain injury,while the electroacupuncture combined with low-frequency transcranial ultrasound stimulation can alleviate the abnormal electroencephalographic signals in rats,which suggests the electroencephalographic frequency domain value and nonlinear features can be used to assess the severity of traumatic brain injury.
