Aging has emerged as a cutting edge and hotspot in global life science field， with anti-aging and geriatric disease prevention and treatment becoming critical issues urgently demanding solutions in international medical communities. In the face of the challenge of accelerating global population aging， in-depth exploration of aging mechanisms and the development of effective intervention strategies hold significant scientific and clinical value. This study supported by the national key research and development program of China， employed the essence-Qi-spirit theory of Qiluo doctrine as its guiding framework， focusing on the key scientific issue of the core traditional Chinese pathogenesis of aging， namely "depletion of kidney essence， deficiency of primordial Qi， and impairment of body and spirit". The treatment principle of "tonifying the kidney to replenish essence， harmonizing Yin and Yang， warming and invigorating primordial Qi， and nourishing the body and spirit" was established. Centered on holistic aging， systemic aging， and aging-related diseases， the research integrated multidisciplinary research approaches to construct multi-modal aging models and a multi-dimensional evaluation system， and it utilized multi-omics technologies to deeply analyze aging mechanisms. By systematically reviewing historical kidney-tonifying and anti-aging formulas and combining big data with artificial intelligence technologies， an information database of anti-aging traditional Chinese medicine substance was developed to reveal the differences and synergistic effects of various treatment methods and formulas on anti-aging. Based on this treatment method， the research integrated two millennia of kidney-tonifying medicinal experience to develop the innovative anti-aging traditional Chinese medicine， namely Bazhi Bushen capsules. It was validated that this capsule can delay holistic and systemic aging through multiple targets and mechanisms， thereby elucidating the scientific connotation of the essence-Qi-spirit theory of Qiluo doctrine in guiding anti-aging research from multiple dimensions and providing robust support for leveraging the advantages of traditional Chinese medicine to occupy the commanding heights of international anti-aging research.

Objective: To prospectively evaluate the feasibility, accuracy, and safety of multiparameter MRI-guided percutaneous biopsy using a 1T open MRI scanner for evaluating suspicious centrally located lung lesions with associated post-obstructive atelectasis. Materials and Methods: In this single-center study, MRI-guided percutaneous coaxial cutting biopsy was performed for 107 suspicious central lung lesions with associated post-obstructive atelectasis in 107 patients between July 2015 and December 2020. A fast T2-weighted imaging (T2WI)-turbo spin echo (TSE) sequence and an enhanced fast T1-weighted imaging (T1WI)-TSE sequence were used to identify, localize, and biopsy lung lesions, and diffusion-weighted imaging (DWI) was used as a supplementary sequence for identifying the lesion location. The final diagnosis was confirmed by surgical histopathology or clinical follow-up for a minimum of 24 months. The sensitivity, specificity, and accuracy for diagnosing lung malignancies were calculated, and the complications were recorded for each case. Results: Using multiparameter MRI, central lung lesions could be clearly distinguished from post-obstructive atelectasis in 96 patients (89.7%). The sensitivity, specificity, and accuracy of MRI-guided percutaneous biopsy for diagnosing lung malignancy was 97.0% (98/101), 100% (6/6), and 97.2% (104/107), respectively. Self-limited hemoptysis occurred in three patients. Pneumothorax occurred in five patients, of which none required pleural drainage. No serious procedure-related complications were observed. Conclusion As a technology that does not involve ionizing radiation, multiparameter MRI-guided percutaneous coaxial cutting biopsy is a safe and accurate diagnostic technique for evaluating centrally located lung lesions associated with post-obstructive atelectasis.

Objective:To explore the application effect of the teaching model undertaking"learning,thinking,applying,integrating,and innovating"based on heritage and innovation in the teaching of Basic Theory of Traditional Chinese Medicine.Methods:Undergraduate students of two classes majoring in Traditional Chinese Medicine(grade 2024)from a university of Chinese Medicine were selected as our research subjects.A total of 55 students from class 7 were enrolled in the control group,while 55 students from class 8 were enrolled in the experimental group.The control group received the traditional lecture-based teaching model,whereas the experimental group adopted a teaching model undertaking"learning,thinking,applying,integrating,and innovating"based on heritage and innovation.The formative evaluation and the final exam scores of two groups were compared,and a questionnaire survey was conducted to evaluate teaching effectiveness.Results:The self-directed learning and final exam scores of the experimental group were significantly higher than those of the control group(P＜0.01).The teaching effects such as learning participation and mastery of theoretical knowledge of the experimental group were significantly better than those of the control group(P＜0.01).Conclusion:Application of the model of"learning,thinking,applying,integrating,and innovating"based on inheritance and innovation in the teaching of Basic Theory of Traditional Chinese Medicine can stimulate students'interest in learning,solve problems in teaching,improve teaching quality,and establish students'professional confidence in the application of Basic Theory of Traditional Chinese Medicine courses.

Objective:To analyze the changing trends and influencing factors of the Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease(COPD)burden in China,and provide evidence for adjusting related prevention and control policies.Methods:Utilizing the 2021 Global Burden of Disease(GBD)database,it conducted a comprehensive analysis of COPD prevalence,mortality,and disease burden trends in China through disease burden assessment and Age-Period-Cohort(APC)modeling,alongside projections for future trends.Results:From 1990 to 2021,China's age-standardized COPD disease burden showed a declining trend.APC models revealed significant birth cohort effects on COPD prevalence and mortality.Air pollution and tobacco smoke exposure were identified as primary risk factors for COPD-related deaths and disease burden.Projections indicate that the age-standardized prevalence,mortality,and Disability-Adjusted Life Year(DALY)rates of COPD will continue to decrease over the next five years.Conclusion:While China's COPD disease burden has generally declined,prevention and control remain challenging.Significant population heterogeneity in disease burden necessitates targeted interventions for high-risk groups.Establishing an integrated"prevention-diagnosis-control-treatment-rehabilitation"healthcare system is critical to delivering holistic care for COPD patients.

Objective:To compare the embryo development potential and clinical outcomes between the patients with and without oocyte degeneration.Methods:This retrospective cohort study included a total of 242 cycles underwent ICSI that cultured in time-lapse incubator from January 2019 to June 2023 at the Reproductive and Genetic Center of Suzhou Municipal Hospital and all 3 119 oocytes were evaluated. Data collection continued to February 5th,2024 until the last birthing of the study. Patients were divided into degenerated group (140 cycles) and control group (102 cycles) according to whether oocyte degenerated after ICSI. Then the embryo developmental potential and clinical outcomes were compared. Furthermore, we also investigated whether embryo morphokinetics could be different between the two groups.Results:Female age, duration of infertility, body mass index, basal follicle sitmulating hormone, basal luteinizing hormone, basal estrogen (E 2), antral follicle count, anti-Müllerian hormone, factors of infertility and source of semen were similar between the two groups ( P>0.05). E 2 on human chorionic gonadotropin triggered day [2 513.00 (1 842.20, 3 638.50) ng/L], number of oocytes retrieved (13.56±4.80) and oocyte maturation rate [84.35% (1 601/1 898)] were significantly higher in degenerated group than those in control group [2 270.50 (1 472.00, 3 044.20) ng/L, P=0.019; 11.97±4.71, P=0.011; 81.08% (990/1 221), P=0.017], while normal fertilization rate [69.33% (1 103/1 591)], day 3 (D3) good-quality embryos [57.85% (634/1 096)], blastocyst formation rate [50.87% (469/922)] and embryo utilized rate [58.30% (643/1 103)] were significantly lower in degenerated group than those in control group [85.56% (847/990), P<0.001; 65.72% (556/846), P<0.001; 61.26% (446/728), P<0.001; 66.12% (560/847), P<0.001] . In addition, the proportion of low cell number (<7) of D3 embryos [33.76% (370/1 096)] and high fragmentation (fragmentation ≥50%, fragmentation 20%-50%) of D3 embryos [10.01% (109/1 089), 18.64% (203/1 089)] in degenerated group were significantly higher than those in control group [27.19% (230/846), P=0.002; 6.06% (51/841), P=0.002; 14.15% (119/841), P=0.009], and so were the incidence of DC1 and CC [5.98% (66/1 103) vs. 2.48% (21/847), P<0.001; 2.45% (27/1 103) vs. 0.94% (8/847), P=0.013]. As regard to the utilized embryos, there were no significant differences in t5, cc2, cc3 and s2 ( P>0.05), but tPNf [22.82(21.13, 24.84) h], t2 [25.37 (23.62, 27.37) h], t3 [35.64 (33.10, 38.03) h] and t4 [36.85 (34.70, 39.52) h] in degenerated group were significantly earlier than those in control group [23.04 (21.76, 25.41) h, P=0.001; 25.91 (24.15, 28.05) h, P=0.001; 36.16 (33.11, 38.81) h, P=0.040; 37.39 (35.11, 40.27) h, P=0.026]. Further more, after the first transfer of fresh or frozen embryos, there were no significant differences in clinical pregnancy rate, implantation rate, early abortion rate, live birth rate, sex ratio, preterm birth rate, low birth weight rate and birth defect rate between the two groups (all P>0.05). ICSI degeneration was not an independent factor of implantation rate, early abortion rate and live birth rate after ICSI treatment, but number of embryos transferred was an independent factor of implantation rate and live birth rate after ICSI treatment ( OR=2.806, 95% CI: 1.179-6.677, P=0.020; OR=2.622, 95% CI: 1.129-6.090, P=0.025). Conclusion:The presence of oocyte degeneration after ICSI may affect the overall developmental potential of its sibling oocytes and may also disturb the morphokinetics of the embyos, however the pregnancy outcomes and neonatal birth outcomes may not be affected if transfer the best embryo in the first fresh or frozen cycle.

BACKGROUND:miRNAs expression has been reported to be associated with hepatic and renal fibrosis,and dermal fibrogenesis. Moreover,a targeted regulatory relationship between miR-192-5p and epidermal regulators has been demonstrated in gouty arthritis.OBJECTIVE:To investigate the expression and regulatory role of miR-192-5p in hypertrophic scar and to verify whether there is a targeted regulatory relationship between miR-192-5p and epidermal regulators. METHODS:(1) Six cases of hypertrophic scar tissue and six cases of normal skin tissue were collected from the First Affiliated Hospital of Xinjiang Medical University. And miR-192-5p and epidermal regulator mRNA expression were detected by qRT-PCR. (2) The primary hypertrophic scar fibroblasts were obtained using tissue explant method and cultured to 3-6 generations for subsequent experiments. There were three groups in the experiment:negative control group,miR-192-5p mimic group and miR-192-5p inhibitor group. The latter two groups were transfected with the corresponding sequences. Cell proliferation viability was detected by the cell counting kit-8 assay and EdU kit;and the migration ability was detected by the cell scratch test. Cell apoptosis was detected by flow cytometry. The gene and protein expressions of epidermal regulator,type Ⅰ collagen,type Ⅲ collagen and α-smooth muscle actin were detected by qRT-PCR and western blot,respectively. miR-192-5p targets were predicted by a bioinformatics website,and target binding was validated by dual luciferase assay. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:(1) Compared with normal skin tissues and their fibroblasts,miR-192-5p and epidermal regulator were highly expressed in hypertrophic scar and hypertrophic scar fibroblasts (P<0.05 or P<0.01). (2) After overexpression of miR-192-5p,cell proliferation was enhanced (P<0.05) and EdU positive cell rate increased (P<0.01) when compared with the negative control group;after inhibition of miR-192-5p,cell viability (P<0.05) and EdU positive rate decreased (P<0.05). (3) At 24 hours after overexpression of miR-192-5p,compared with the negative control group,the area between cell scratches and apoptosis rate decreased in the miR-192-5p mimic group (P<0.05) but increased in the miR-192-5p inhibitor group (P<0.01). (4) At 48 hours after transfection,the mRNA and protein levels of epidermal regulator were significantly decreased in the miR-192-5p mimic group,while the mRNA and protein levels of type Ⅰ collagen,type Ⅲ collagen and α-smooth muscle actin were significantly increased (P<0.05 or P<0.01). The miR-192-5p inhibitor group showed opposite changes in the above four indicators (P<0.05 or P<0.01). (5) The Targetscan website predicted that epidermal regulator had a potential binding site for miR-192-5p. (6) Dual luciferase assays showed that miR-192-5p could bind to epidermal regulator in a targeted manner. To conclude,overexpression of miR-192-5p can decrease the expression of epidermal regulator,and the two may be negatively regulated,suggesting that regulation of epidermal regulator may play a role in inhibiting the proliferation of hypertrophic scar fibroblasts.
