AIM:To establish a nomogram model to predict the effect of serum ferritin on diabetic retinopathy and evaluate the model.METHODS:A total of 21 variables, including ferritin, were screened by univariate and multivariate regression analysis to determine the risk factors of diabetic retinopathy. A nomogram prediction model was established for evaluation and calibration.RESULTS:Ferritin, duration of diabetes, hemoglobin, urine microalbumin, regularity of medication and body mass index were included in the nomogram model. The consistency index of the prediction model with serum ferritin was 0.813(95%CI: 0.748-0.879). The calibration curves of internal and external verification showed good performance, and the probability of the threshold suggested by the decision curve was in the range 10% to 90%. The model had a high net profit value.CONCLUSIONS:Serum ferritin is an important risk factor for diabetic retinopathy. A new nomogram model, which includes body mass index, duration of diabetes, ferritin, hemoglobin, urine microalbumin and regularity of medication, has a high predictive accuracy and could provide early prediction for clinicians.

To evaluate the effect of bronchoalveolar lavage (BAL) on the clinical prognosis of children with macrolide drug-resistant Mycoplasma pneumoniae pneumonia (MRMPP) in a retrospective cohort study based on propensity score matching (PSM).A retrospective cohort study based on propensity score matching retrospectively collected the clinical data of hospitalized patients diagnosed with mycoplasma macrolide drug-resistant pneumonia (MRMPP) in Respiratory Department of Hunan Children′s Hospital from January 2020 to August 2023. According to whether bronchoalveolar lavage (BAL) was performed during hospitalization, the children were divided into BAL group and non-BAL group, and the baseline information of the two groups was matched by propensity scores, and the clinical prognosis was compared. A total of 302 children were screened, and 150 cases were successfully matched, including 59 cases in the BAL group and 91 cases in the non-BAL group. The results showed that the differences between the non-BAL group and the BAL group before PSM( P<0.05) were significantly different in age [(4.60±2.97)years vs (5.41±3.02) years, t=-2.273, P=0.024], shortness of breath (9.4% vs 22.5%, χ 2=9.864, P=0.002), and radiographic manifestations [lung interstitial changes (29.8% vs 15.3%, χ 2=8.009, P=0.005), lung consolidation (17.3% vs 55.9%, χ 2=48.457, P<0.001), spotted flaky infiltrates (52.4% vs 27.9%, χ 2=17.056, P<0.001)], bacterial infection (3.2% vs 9.2%, χ 2=4.845, P=0.028), duration of azithromycin or doxycycline use [4(2, 5) days vs 5(3, 6) days, Z=-2.374, P=0.018], White Blood Cell Count at admission [7.94 (6.25, 10.34)×10 9/L vs 7.21 (5.65, 9.01)×10 9/L, Z=-2.445, P=0.014], D Dimer [0.58 (0.44, 0.83) μg/ml vs 0.80 (0.52, 1.12) μg/ml, Z=-3.154, P=0.002], but there was no significant difference between the two groups in the above indexes after PSM ( P>0.05). The duration of hospitalization, cough relief, disappearance of rales and fever in the BAL group was shortened in the BAL group compared with that in the non-BAL group [5 (4, 7) days vs 7 (5, 8) days, Z=-2.373, P=0.018], and the difference was statistically significant ( P<0.05). Linear regression analysis of PSM cohort study showed that BAL was negatively correlated with fever time (β=-4.369, 95% CI:-8.600--0.138, P<0.05). In conclusion, BAL can shorten the fever time of MRMPP, and early BAL in addition to conventional treatment has a positive effect on the prognosis of children.

Acute myocardial infarction with cardiogenic shock (AMI-CS) refers to the rapid decrease in cardiac output in a short period of time, and it leads to severe insufficient perfusion of various organs and causes systemic microcirculatory dysfunction, which is the most common cause of the death of patients with acute myocardial infarction (AMI). At present, the main strategy for clinical treatment of AMI-CS is revascularization, which reduces the mortality of AMI-CS. However, myocardial ischemia and reperfusion can cause ischemia/reperfusion (I/R) injury, induce myocardial mitochondrial dysfunction, and a large amount of reactive oxygen species (ROS) accumulation. Mitochondrial-mediated apoptosis of cardiomyocytes is the main reason of cardiomyocyte death during reperfusion injury. This article summarizes the role of mitochondrial in AMI-CS, which focus on three aspects of mitochondrial permeability transition pore (mPTP) opening, mitochondrial autophagy and mitochondrial fusion/division. It is expected to provide new ideas for clinical AMI-CS and identify potential complications targets.

OBJECTIVE:
To test the validity and reliability of the Chinese version of Mobile Phone Involvement Questionnaire (MPIQ) in college students.
METHODS:
We assessed the degree of phone dependence using the MPIQ among 2122 college students. One month later, 60 students were randomly selected for assessment with the MPIQ, and the ROC curve was generated to evaluate the true positive rate (sensitivity) and false positive rate at different cutoff values to determine the optimal cutoff score of the MPIQ.
RESULTS:
Among 98.9% of the participants who finished all the items, their MPIQ scores show a positive skew distribution and a one-factor structure. The load scores of the items ranged from 0.54 to 0.77. The Cronbach's α coefficient and the Spearman Brown split reliability were 0.84 and 0.83, respectively, the correlation coefficients between the items and total score ranged from 0.54 to 0.76, and the test-retest reliability was 0.48 ( < 0.001). At the optimal cut-off score of 32, the sensitivity and the specificity of the MPIQ were 0.634 and 0.652, respectively.
CONCLUSIONS
At the optimal cut-off score of 32, the MPIQ has good validity and reliability for assessing phone dependence among college students.

Objective:To ananlyze the toxic effects and mechanisms of Cr (Ⅵ) subchronic exposure based on metabonomics techniques.Methods:Twenty-nine female Sprague-Dawley rats were randomly divided into control group, low dose group and high dose group, 10, 9, 10, respectively. The control group, low dose group and high dose group were treated with 0, 10, 50 mg/L Cr (Ⅵ) for 90 days respec tively. The serum samples of rats with different dose of Cr (Ⅵ) treatment were detected Using UPLC-Q-TOF-MS/MS technique and data was analyzed by PCA, PLS-DA and OPLS-DA to compare with metabolic profile in different Cr (Ⅵ) dose treatments. Pathway analysis was performed using MetaboAnalyst 4.0 software.Results:UPLC-Q- TOF-MS/MS has stable detection performance and reliable experimental data. The control group, low Cr (Ⅵ) and high Cr (Ⅵ ) metabolic profiles of rats serum differences was obviously, and there is significant difference of serum metabolic profile among rats treated with different dose of Cr (Ⅵ) . 18 differential metabolites were screened between Cr (Ⅵ) low dose group and control group, 23 differential metabolites between Cr (Ⅵ) high dose group and control group. Compared to control group, there were 13 differential metabolites in both Cr (Ⅵ) high dose group and Cr (Ⅵ ) low dose group, such as 3-Hydroxy-11Z-octadecenoylcarnitine, Anserine, Farnesyl pyrophosphate, Linoleoyl ethanolamid e, Linoleyl carnitine, Lithocholate 3-O-glucuronide, LysoPC [20∶2(11Z, 14Z) ], LysoPC[20∶3 (5Z, 8Z, 11Z) ], LysoPC[22∶2(13Z, 16Z) ], PG[16∶0/22∶5(7Z, 10Z, 13Z, 16Z, 19Z) ], PI[18∶1 (11Z) /20∶4(5Z, 8Z, 11Z, 14Z) ], PI[20∶3(5Z, 8Z, 11Z) /18∶0], Serotonin. These differential metabolites were related to Glycerophospholipid metabolism, Tryptophan metabolism, Pentose and glucuronate interconversions, Terpenoid backbone biosynthesis.Conclusion:Cr (Ⅵ) subchronic exposure could induce the significant difference of serum metabolic profile. The differential metabolites induced by Cr (Ⅵ) subchronic ex- posure were mainly related to amino acid and lipid metabolism.

Objective: The aim of the study is to validate whether the Recognition Of Stroke In the Emergency
Room (ROSIER) scale can be used by general practitioners (GPs) in an emergency medical service
(EMS) protocol to transfer stroke patients from primary care center to advanced hospital with acute
stroke center. Methods: GPs prospectively performed the ROSIER scale and the Cincinnati Prehospital
Stroke Scale (CPSS) on suspected stroke patients as a transfer protocol. All patients were immediately
transferred to the Level-II hospital for further treatment. Results: 468 of the 512 suspected stroke
patients met the inclusion criteria in this study. The ROSIER scale showed a diagnostic sensitivity
of 83.13% (95% confidence intervals [CI] 79.74-86.52%) and specificity of 80.88% (95% CI 77.32-
84.44%). The CPSS showed a diagnostic sensitivity of 78.01% (95% CI 74.26-81.76%) and specificity
of 70.59% (95% CI 66.46-74.72%). The Kappa statistic value of the ROSIER scale and the CPSS
were 0.601 and 0.454, respectively. The area under the curve (AUC) of ROSIER scale was large than
the CPSS (AUC 0.855 vs. 0.791). However, the difference was not significantly different.
Conclusions: This study suggest that ROSIER and CPSS could be used in an EMS protocol to transfer
stroke patients from a primary care center to an advanced hospital offering thrombolysis service
