Objective This study aimed to assess the clinical utility of combining the Controlling Nutri-tional Status(CONUT)score with the Prognostic Nutritional Index(PNI)for evaluating anemia risk in elderly colorectal cancer patients and to establish a risk prediction model.Methods A total of 661 elderly colorectal cancer patients treated at Xinjiang Uygur Autonomous Region People's Hospital from July 2018 to March 2025 were included in this retrospective study.Patients were categorized into anemic and non-anemic groups and randomly assigned to a training set and validation set at a 7:3 ratio.The XGBoost algorithm was applied to develop a predictive model for anemia risk,and its performance was assessed using the receiver operating characteristic(ROC)curve.SHAP value visualization,and other methods.Results Among the 661 patients,257(38.9％)were diagnosed with anemia.Compared with the non-anemic group,patients in the anemic group had significantly lower levels of PNI and albumin,but higher CONUT scores and blood urea nitrogen levels.Additionally,the anemic group had higher proportions of tumor diameter≥5 cm,poorly differentiated tumors,and stage Ⅲ-Ⅳ disease(all P<0.05).The XGBoost model demonstrated good discriminatory ability,with an AUC of 0.897(95％CI:0.868～0.925).SHAP value analysis identified PNI,CONUT score,albumin,blood urea nitrogen,TNM stage,tumor differentiation,and tumor size as major contributing variables.PNI and albumin were protective factors,whereas CONUT score,blood urea nitrogen,and tumor-related features were risk factors.Conclusion Nutritional indicators such as PNI and CONUT score,along with tumor characteristics,can effectively predict the risk of anemia in elderly patients with colorectal cancer.The XGBoost-based predictive model demonstrates high discriminatory power and good inter-pretability,providing valuable support for early screening of high-risk patients and guiding individualized nutri-tional interventions and anemia management.

Objective:To explore the genetic etiology of a child with Renpenning syndrome (RS), and review the literature on the clinical characteristics and gene mutations of RS.Methods:A child with RS (patient 1) who was diagnosed and treated in the Pediatric Intensive Care Unit of the Third Affiliated Hospital of Zhengzhou University in November 2023 was selected as the research object. The medical history, family history, physical examination, cerebrospinal fluid examination, echocardiography, brain magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), brain magnetic resonance angiography, cardiac coronary CT angiography and intelligence quotient (IQ) score of child 1 were retrospectively collected. Peripheral venous blood samples were collected from patient 1, his parents, sister and brother, respectively. Genomic DNA was extracted from the child and his family members, and three-whole exome sequencing (Trios-WES) was performed. Sanger sequencing was used to verify the pedigree. Bioinformatics softwares (Mutation Taster, REVEL, SIFT, PolyPhen-2, GERP+ +, SWISS-MODEL) were applied. The pathogenicity of the detected variants was rated according to the American College of Medical Genetics and Genomics (ACMG) Standards and Guidelines for the Classification of Genetic Variants (hereinafter referred to as the ACMG Guidelines). " PQBP1 gene" " Renpenning syndrome" " PQBP1 gene" " Renpenning syndrome" were used as keywords in Chinese and English, respectively. Case reports of patients with RS caused by PQBP1 gene variants were retrieved from Wanfang Data Knowledge Service Platform, China National Knowledge Infrastructure and PubMed database. The clinical features and gene variants of RS caused by PQBP1 gene variants were summarized and analyzed. This study was reviewed by the Medical Ethics Committee of the Third Affiliated Hospital of Zhengzhou University (Approval No. 2024-334-01). Results:The patient 1, a 12-year-old boy, was admitted to the hospital due to fever and disturbance of consciousness. Cerebrospinal fluid test showed viral encephalitis caused by human herpesvirus 7 infection. The main clinical manifestations were unusual facies (microcephaly, long narrow face, microphthalmos, superior oblique palpebral fissure, hypertelorism of inner canthus, bulbous nasal columella) and mental retardation. Auxiliary examination showed than patient 1 had atrial septal defect, nodular heterotopia in the posterior horn of the left ventricle, angiodysplasia, and low IQ. The disease began in infancy, and there was no family history of related diseases. A hemizygous deletion, c. 459_462del (p.Arg153SerfsTer41), was identified in exon 5 of the PQBP1 gene in patient 1, which was inherited from his mother by Sanger sequencing. The results of bioinformatics analysis showed that the mutation was harmful. This variant was rated as pathogenic (PVS1+ PS4+ PM2_Supporting+ PP3) according to ACMG Guidelines. According to the literature search strategy set in this study, a total of 13 cases of RS were retrieved, involving 16 cases of RS patient caused by PQBP1 gene mutation (patients 2-17), including patient 1, a total of 17 cases of RS. Among the 17 patients, 16 male patients had hemizygous mutations in the X chromosome PQBP1 gene, and 1 female patient had heterozygous mutations, including 12 deletion frameshift nonsense mutations, 3 point missense mutations, and 2 duplication mutations. Except for two fetuses, all patients had special facial features and low IQ to varying degrees. Ten patients had abnormal development of one or more organs such as eyes, heart, brain, etc. Conclusion:The main clinical manifestations of RS are developmental delay, long narrow face, bulbous nose, microcephaly, and may be accompanied by heterotopia of gray matter of ventricle and congenital heart disease. The c. 459_462del (p.Arg153SerfsTer41) variant of the PQBP1 gene is the genetic basis of patient 1 in this study.

Objective:To summarize the clinical and genetic characteristics of children with Menkes disease(MD).Methods:The clinical manifestations, auxiliary examinations and genetic testing results of 15 MD children admitted to the Department of Pediatrics of the Third Affiliated Hospital of Zhengzhou University, Children′s Hospital Affiliated of Zhengzhou University and the First Affiliated Hospital of Zhengzhou University from June 2016 to October 2022 were analyzed retrospectively.These children were followed up.Results:All the 15 children were male.The age at onset was ranging from 9 days to 5.5 months.White skin, curly hair, skin laxity, hypotonia and severe developmental delay were found in all children, with epilepsy in 13 children, anemia in 11 children and granulocytopenia in 4 children.The concentration of ceruloplasmin in the serum of MD children was lower than that in healthy children of the same age.The concentration of ceruloplasmin in MD children younger than 3 months was significantly lower than that in healthy children of the same age and MD children older than 3 months.The brain magnetic resonance imaging showed abnormalities in all 15 children.Twelve children showed tortuous intracranial vessels in brain magnetic resonance angiography examinations.All the 15 children had ATP7A gene pathogenic variants, including 4 missense variants(2 cases with c. 2179G>A), 3 frameshift variants, 3 nonsense variants, 3 exon deletions and 2 splice site variants.Among these children, 1 had a novel gene variant that had not been reported so far(c.2968C>T). Conclusions:MD has early onset age and diverse clinical manifestations, but also has characteristic clinical manifestations and applicable auxiliary examinations.Its diagnosis depends on genetic testing.The c. 2179G>A and exon deletions may be hot mutations in Chinese MD patients.

Objective:To explore the implicit bias of body image measurement in young and middle-aged people using implicit relational assessment procedure (IRAP) .Methods:ProQuest, Scopus, EBSCO, Cochrane Library, Web of Science, PubMed, China National Knowledge Infrastructure, WanFang data, and VIP databases were systematically searched to collect articles on the use of IRAP to measure implicit bias in body image in young and middle-aged populations. The retrieval period was from the establishment of the databases to December 15, 2023. Meta-analysis was conducted using Review Manager 5.4 software.Results:A total of 11 articles were included. The results of the Meta-analysis showed that the score of D general (reaction time index of pro-thinness and anti-fat) was 0.09 (95% CI: 0.07~0.11, P<0.01), indicating that compared with overweight/obesity, young and middle-aged people had a strong sense of identification with thinness and a stronger desire for thinness. The score of D thin (reaction time index of pro-thinness) was 0.26 (95% CI: 0.12~0.39, P<0.01), indicating that young and middle-aged people' reaction speed was faster when they agreed with thinness and participants had the desire to be thin. The score of D fat (reaction time index of anti-obesity) was -0.09 (95% CI: -0.21~0.03, P>0.05), indicating that young and middle-aged people had no bias against overweight/obesity. Conclusions:Young and middle-aged people generally have the performance of implicit thinness, with a strong desire for thinness and no implicit bias towards overweight.

Circular RNA(circRNA)represents a unique class of closed-loop structured non-coding RNAs involved in various biological processes such as cell proliferation,differentiation,and apopto-sis.They play a significant role in the development of numerous diseases,and also serve as poten-tial biomarkers and therapeutic targets.To explore the impact of circRNA on viral replication,this study performed an omics measurement and analysis of circRNA differential expression in MC38 cells infected with HY12 enterovirus.It was found that,following HY12 virus infection,the ex-pressionlevels of 570 circRNAs were upregulated,while 381 circRNAs were downregulated.A-mong the upregulated circRNAs,the significantly upregulated circRNA mmu_circ_0001083 was selected for further investigation into its association with HY12 infection and its impact on viral replication.The results indicated that after HY12 virus infection,the expression of host circRNA mmu_circ_0001083 significantly increased,and its expression level was dependent on the virus dos-age and time.Compared to normal MC38 cells infected with the HY12 virus,cells with knocked down expression of circRNA mmu_circ_0001083 showed reduced expression of the 2C protein and significantly lower viral titers.Conversely,after HY12 virus infection in MC38 cells with overexpressed circRNA mmu_circ_0001083,there was an increase in the expression of the 2C pro-tein and a significant rise in viral titers.These results suggest that the upregulation of host cir-cRNA mmu_circ_0001083 is significantly positively correlated with the replication of HY12 virus,meaning mmu_circ_0001083 plays a positive regulatory role in the replication of HY12.This find-ing lays a foundation for future in-depth studies on the regulatory mechanisms of circRNA on viral replication.

A recombinant enzyme-mediated nucleic acid amplification(RAA)technology combined with colloidal gold test strips was developed for the rapid detection of bovine enterovirus(BEV).Using the highly conserved BEV 5'UTR as the target sequence,the primers were designed and screened.Downstream primer labeled with biotin at the 5'end and the probe labeled with 6-FAM at the 5'end were used to establish the RT-RAA method.The test strips were assembled by using mouse-derived anti-6-FAM monoclonal antibody as the gold standard antibody,with a streptavidin encapsulated in the detection line and sheep anti-mouse IgG encapsulated in the quality control line.A RT-RAA-LFD method was established by combing RAA technique with the prepared later-al flow device test strips for the detection of bovine enterovirus nucleic acids.The specificity,sensi-tivity,repeatability,and clinical application of the method are also evaluated.The results showed that the optimal primer concentration of this method was 5 μmol/L,and the amplification of BEV nucleic acids was accomplished by reacting at 35 ℃ for 8 min with the lowest detection limit of 101 copies/μL.No cross-reactivity with bovine viral diarrhea virus,bovine parvovirus,and foot-and-mouth disease virus was observed.The efficacy for the prepared test strips was at least for 90 d kept at 4 ℃.Detection of 74 clinical samples yielded a similar result compared with RT-PCR method.The above results demonstrated that the BEV RT-RAA-LFD method established in this study has high sensitivity,specificity,and more convenient to use,which is suitable for clinical de-tection on-site and provides a new technical tool for the diagnosis and epidemiological investigation of BEV infection.

Objective:To explore the effectiveness of systematic rehabilitation training in promoting the recovery of pa-tients with massive rotator cuff injury after arthroscopic repair.Method:A total of 90 cases with massive rotator cuff injury undergoing arthroscopic rotator cuff repair were retrospectively included from May 2018 to May 2022.Patients who could adhere to weekly postoperative sys-tematic rehabilitation therapy were selected as the treatment group(n=47),utilizing the rehabilitation program from Beijing Jishuitan Hopsital.Those who only received routine rehabilitation guidance postoperatively were se-lected as the control group(n=43).General data were analyzed and patients were compared for psychological state scores,Constant-Murley shoulder scale and satisfaction levels 6 months after surgery.The range of mo-tion(ROM)of active forward flexion,abduction and extemal rotation of shoulder were tested at 7 weeks,3 months and 6 months after operation in both group.Result:There was no significant difference between two groups in Constant Murley scores before operation(P＞0.05).There were significant differences 6 months after operation(P＜0.05),the treatment group had higher scores than the control group in Constant Murley scores(P＜0.05).At 7 weeks,3 months and 6 months after operation,ROM of shoulder in the treatment group were better than that in the control group(P＜0.05).Conclusion:Systematic and individual rehabilitation training for patients after arthroscopic repair of massive ro-tator cuff can effectively restore the function of shoulder joint,improve the psychological states and increases treatment satisfaction.
