Rheumatoid arthritis(RA)is a chronic autoimmune disease of unknown etiology that can cause joint destruction and deformity.As a small molecule cytokine,the chemokine C-X-C motif chemokine ligand 12(CXCL12)regulates the pathogenesis of rheumatoid arthritis by binding to the specific receptor CXC chemokine receptor 4(CXCR4).Therefore,based on the bio-logical characteristics of CXCL12 and CXCR4,this paper intro-duces the pathogenesis of CXCL12/CXCR4 in RA and summari-zes the progress in RA-related research,with the aim of providing clinical value for understanding the pathogenesis of RA and de-veloping novel therapeutic targets.

Objective:To investigate the clinical diagnosis,treatment and prognosis of traumatic ectopic testis with torsion.Methods:We retrospectively analyzed the clinical data on a case of traumatic ectopic testis with torsion and reviewed relevant litera-ture.Results:After diagnosed with traumatic ectopic testis with torsion,the patient underwent exploratory operation for confirmation of orchiocatabasis,followed by testicular reduction and fixation.Follow-up visit at 1 month after surgery showed good blood supply and no obvious testicular atrophy.Conclusion:Traumatic ectopic testis with torsion is an extremely rare emergency condition,for which color Doppler ultrasonography is an effective means of examination.Once suspected of or confirmed with the problem,the patient should receive exploratory surgery,testicular reduction and fixation within 6 hours,and close postoperative observation.

Aim To investigate the effects of Agrimonia pilosa(AP)on the proliferation and apoptosis of non-small cell lung cancer(NSCLC)H1299 cells using non-targeted metabolomics and other methods,and to explore the underlying molecular mechanisms.Meth-ods Taking H1299 cells as the research object,the effect of AP on cell proliferation and apoptosis was de-tected through CCK-8 method,colony formation,LDH,Hoechst 33258 staining,AO/EB staining,flow cytometry detection,RT qPCR and other experiments.The main differential metabolites were detected by the metabolomics method of ultra-high phase liquid chro-matography and mass spectrometry(UHPLC-Q-Orbi-trap MS),and related metabolic pathways were ana-lyzed.Results Compared with the control group,AP treatment was able to significantly inhibit the prolifera-tion and colony formation of H1299 cells,while the re-lease of LDH increased in a dose-dependent manner.Fluorescence microscopy and flow cytometry and RT-qPCR analysis revealed that H1299 cells underwent crumpling and increased nuclear fragmentation after AP administration,blocked in G0/G1 phase,up-regulated apoptotic genes caspase-3 and Bax,and down-regulated apoptosis-inducing effects of Bcl-2.Metabolomics anal-ysis screened 35 differential metabolites,which were PC(O-30∶1),D-Glutamic acid,PE(18∶0/15∶0),etc.The main metabolic pathways involved includ-ed amino acid metabolism,glycerophospholipid metabo-lism and purine metabolism so on.Conclusions AP may exert its pharmacological effects by interfering with multiple metabolic pathways in H1299 cells,inhibiting cell proliferation and promoting apoptosis.

Objective To evaluate the effectiveness of different tip positions applied to midline catheters(MC)and provide evidence-based evidence for venous catheter tip positioning in clinical practice.Methods Computerized searches of PubMed,Web of Science,Embase,Cochrane Library,CINAHL,CNKI,Wanfang Database,VIP,and CBM for studies on the effectiveness of applying MC with different tip positions were performed from the time of database construction to July 2024.Meta-analysis was performed using Rev Man 5.3 software after 2 investigators independently screened the studies,extracted the information and evaluated the quality of the included studies.Results A total of 9 studies with 2 302 hospitalized patients were included.The quality evaluation results of the included studies are all B-level.Meta-analysis showed that when the tip of the MC was located in the subclavian vein compared with the tip of the MC in the axillary vein,the rate of total catheter-related complications,phlebitis,blood leakage,infiltration,catheter occlusion,catheter dislocation,and catheter-associated thrombosis were lower,with a statistically significant difference(P＜0.05).When the tip of the MC was located in the subclavian vein compared with the tip of the MC in the axillary vein,the catheter retention time was longer,with a statistically significant difference(P=0.007).The descriptive analysis showed a lower rate of extubation due to complications when the tip of the MC was located in the subclavian vein compared with when the tip was located in the axillary vein(P＜0.05).Conclusion When the tip of the MC is located in the subclavian vein compared to when it is located in the axillary vein,the incidence of total catheter-related complications,phlebitis,blood leakage,infiltration,catheter occlusion,catheter dislocation,catheter-associated thrombosis,and the rate of catheter extractions due to complications were lower,and the catheter was left in place for a longer period of time.Due to the limitations of the quantity and quality of the included studies,more large-sample,high-quality studies are needed to further validate the effectiveness of different tip positions of MC.

A pair of positively charged stable isotope labelling agents,4-((2,5-dioxocyclopentyloxy)carbonyl)-N,N,N-trimethylnaphthalen-1-aminium iodide(DPTNA)and its deuterated counterpart d3-DPTNA,were designed and synthesized,which were applied to pre-column labelling of alkylphenols to enhance the sensitivity and accuracy of liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry(LC-MS/MS).By crosslinking covalent organic framework(COF)with hydrophilic sodium alginate and Ca2+in the presence of pore forming agent NH4HCO3 and surfactant P123,abundant of"gas pocket"were created before and during the beads formation process,and high porous COF beads with macroporous and open structure were achieved after removal of gas.Compared with traditional powdered adsorbents,COF beads demonstrated superior operability and recyclability.The proposed method was applied to analysis of alkylphenols in water samples with method LODs of 0.25-0.50 ng/L,while the method LOQs were in the range of 0.80-1.52 ng/L,and recoveries ranged from 92.2%to 98.3%.The proposed method could be well applied to the simultaneous enrichment and analysis of alkylphenols in water samples.

Objective To investigate the prevalence of food intolerance among children in Zhuzhou area and its relationship with age,gender,systemic diseases,and food allergies,so as to provide a basis for the scientific adjustment of children's dietary structure.Methods A retrospective analysis was conducted on totally 1 592 children who underwent food intolerance and food allergen testing in the hospital,the positive rate and distri-bution of 14 kinds of food intolerance were assessed,and their correlation with various factors was analyzed.Results Among 14 kinds of food tested,milk and eggs had the highest positive rates of intolerance,at 82.22％and 55.78％,respectively.The majority of children were intolerant to 1 to 2 kinds of food,with a de-creasing trend in the number of children intolerant to multiple kinds of food.Among the 14 types of food,ex-cept for mushrooms and pork,there were statistically significant differences in the distribution of negative,mild,moderate,and severe intolerance in other foods(P＜0.05).Children tended to have moderate or even se-vere intolerance to milk and eggs,while they tended to have mild intolerance to other foods.There was no sta-tistically significant difference in the overall food intolerance rate between boys and girls(P=0.654),but the positive rate of tomato intolerance in girls was slightly higher than that in boys(P=0.043).Except for pork,there were statistically significant differences in the positive rates of intolerance to 14 different foods among different age groups(P＜0.05).The positive rates of intolerance to cod,mushrooms,and crabs increased with age,while the positive rates of intolerance to beef decreased with age.There was a statistically significant difference in the positive rate of milk intolerance between healthy children and children with skin allergies(P＜0.05).There was a statistically significant difference in the proportion of individuals who were tolerant and not allergic to milk compared to hose who were intolerant and allergic to milk(P＜0.05).There was a statistically significant difference in the proportion of individuals who were tolerant and not allergic to eggs compared to those who were intolerant and allergic to eggs(P＜0.05).Conclusion The positive rate of food intolerance among children in Zhuzhou area is relatively high,with milk and eggs being the main intolerant foods.There are differences in the positive rate of intolerance among different gender and age groups,and in-tolerance to milk and eggs is associated with food allergies to some extent.

Objective:To establish a rapid and accurate duplex real-time fluorescent reverse transcription-recombinase polymerase amplification/recombinase-aided amplification（RT-RPA/RAA）detection method for identification and differentiation of Nipah virus（NiV），Langya virus（LayV），Mojiang virus（MoJV），and Cedar virus（CedV）.Methods:First，specific primers and probes were designed targeting the conserved L gene regions of NiV and LayV，as well as the conserved N gene regions of MoJV and CedV，respectively. The four viruses were divided into two groups for duplex detection. Subsequently，the optimal primer and probe combinations were screened by comparing the amplification efficiency of different primer pair combinations（F1/R1，F1/R2，F2/R1，F2/R2）. The reaction temperature was optimized through temperature gradient settings from 37 ℃ to 42 ℃，and the amounts of primers and probes were optimized to establish the duplex real-time fluorescent RT-RPA/RAA detection system. Finally，the detection performance was evaluated through specificity，sensitivity，and stability tests，as well as clinical sample validation.Results:The selected primer pairs（NiV primer pair F2/R1，LayV primer pair F1/R1，MoJV primer pair F2/R2，and CedV primer pair F2/R2）all demonstrated optimal amplification efficiency when combined with their corresponding probes. The optimal annealing temperature was 39 ℃，and the minimum detection limit was 101-102 copies/μl. The method could effectively distinguish target viruses from other non-target viruses，and repeated experiments showed good stability（ R2> 0.90）. Additionally，detection results for Malaysian NiV strains and various clinical samples were consistent with the Taqman multiplex qRT-PCR method. Conclusion:The duplex real-time fluorescent RT-RPA/RAA detection method successfully established in this study can rapidly and accurately identify and differentiate four important henipavirus-like viruses：NiV，LayV，MoJV，and CedV. It features simple operation，rapid reaction，high specificity，and good stability，providing an effective molecular detection tool for rapid field diagnosis，surveillance，and control of these zoonotic viruses.
