Background::The increasing incidence of inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) presents significant medical and societal challenges. A well-designed IBD database is crucial for both epidemiological studies and clinical management. However, inconsistencies between regional databases hinder cross-institutional and international research, especially between Eastern and Western societies.Methods::We developed a new IBD database, the 301 IBD database, integrating the IBD clinical characteristics from the Penn IBD database (USA) and the latest IBD guidelines and consensus and clinical practices of the Chinese PLA General Hospital (PLAGH). We applied this database to analyze clinical data of IBD inpatients at PLAGH from 2008 to 2023.Results::The 301 IBD database contains 490 items in 6 sections including demographic characteristics, personal history, clinical phenotype, disease activity, laboratory tests and examinations, and treatment. Features of the 301 IBD database include inpatient focus, biochemical indicators and opportunistic infection focus, and more about ulcerative colitis (UC)-associated complications. Single-center analysis revealed an increasing hospitalization trend, from 2.35% in 2008 to 3.94% in 2023. We found that the clinical characteristics of our UC inpatients are predominantly male (62.5%), extensive lesions (55.1%), low usage of biologics (4.1%), and a high incidence of UC-CRC (3.0%). The clinical characteristics of CD inpatients included male predominance (68.39%), early onset age (35.43 ± 14.75-year-old), and high rate of surgery (25.81%).Conclusion::The 301 IBD database, integrating Eastern and Western clinical data, provides a valuable tool for IBD clinical research. Future international, multicenter collaborations are expected to further enhance its utility.

BACKGROUND: The available evidence regarding the benefits of percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) on patients receiving dialysis with coronary artery disease (CAD) is limited and inconsistent. This study aimed to evaluate the association between PCI and clinical outcomes as compared with medical therapy alone in patients undergoing dialysis with CAD in China. METHODS: This multicenter, retrospective study was conducted in 30 tertiary medical centers across 12 provinces in China from January 2015 to June 2021 to include patients on dialysis with CAD. The primary outcome was major adverse cardiovascular events (MACE), defined as a composite of cardiovascular death, non-fatal myocardial infarction, and non-fatal stroke. Secondary outcomes included all-cause death, the individual components of MACE, and Bleeding Academic Research Consortium criteria types 2, 3, or 5 bleeding. Multivariable Cox proportional hazard models were used to assess the association between PCI and outcomes. Inverse probability of treatment weighting (IPTW) and propensity score matching (PSM) were performed to account for potential between-group differences. RESULTS: Of the 1146 patients on dialysis with significant CAD, 821 (71.6%) underwent PCI. After a median follow-up of 23.0 months, PCI was associated with a 43.0% significantly lower risk for MACE (33.9% [ n  = 278] vs . 43.7% [ n  = 142]; adjusted hazards ratio 0.57, 95% confidence interval 0.45-0.71), along with a slightly increased risk for bleeding outcomes that did not reach statistical significance (11.1% vs . 8.3%; adjusted hazards ratio 1.31, 95% confidence interval, 0.82-2.11). Furthermore, PCI was associated with a significant reduction in all-cause and cardiovascular mortalities. Subgroup analysis did not modify the association of PCI with patient outcomes. These primary findings were consistent across IPTW, PSM, and competing risk analyses. CONCLUSION This study indicated that PCI in patients on dialysis with CAD was significantly associated with lower MACE and mortality when comparing with those with medical therapy alone, albeit with a slightly increased risk for bleeding events that did not reach statistical significance.

Objective To investigate the relationship between serum glucagon-like peptide-1(GLP-1),monocyte chemoattractant protein-1(MCP-1),insulin-like growth factor binding protein-3(IGFBP-3)and glycolipid metabolism,bone metabolism and microvascular complications(MC)in children with type 1 diabe-tes mellitus(T1DM).Methods A total of 211 children with T1DM(T1DM group)admitted to Handan Cen-tral Hospital,Xingtai Traditional Chinese Medicine Hospital,Baoding First Central Hospital and Handan Ma-ternal and Child Health Hospital from January 2021 to February 2023 were selected,patients were divided into MC group(63 cases)and non-MC group(148 cases)according to whether MC was complicated within 1 year,and 108 healthy children who underwent physical examination during the same period were selected as control group.The levels of serum GLP-1,MCP-1,IGFBP-3 and glucose and lipid metabolism indexes[fasting plasma glucose(FPG),fasting insulin(FINS),glycosylated hemoglobin(HbA1c),homeostasis model assessment of insulin resistance(HOMA-IR),total cholesterol(TC),triglyceride(TG),high density lipoprotein cholesterol(HDL-C),low density lipoprotein cholesterol(LDL-C)]and bone metabolism indexes[bone specific alkaline phosphatase(BALP),osteocalcin(OST),type I collagen cross-linked C-terminal peptide(CTX)]were detec-ted.The correlation between serum GLP-1,MCP-1,IGFBP-3 and glucose and lipid metabolism,bone metabo-lism in children with T1DM were analyzed by Pearson and Spearman correlation coefficient.Taking MC in children with T1DM as the dependent variable,the influencing factors were determined by multivariate uncon-ditional Logistic regression model,and the predictive value of serum GLP-1,MCP-1 and IGFBP-3 for MC were analyzed by receiver operating characteristic curve.Results The levels of serum GLP-1,FINS,HDL-C,BALP,OST and CTX in the T1DM group were lower than those in the control group,while the levels of MCP-1,IGFBP-3,FPG,HbA1c,HOMA-IR,TG and LDL-C in the T1DM group were higher than those in the control group,the differences were statistically significant(P<0.05).Serum GLP-1 in children with T1DM was negatively correlated with FPG,HbA1c,HOMA-IR,TG and LDL-C,and positively correlated with FINS,HDL-C,BALP,OST and CTX(P<0.05).MCP-1 and IGFBP-3 were positively correlated with FPG,HbA1c,HOMA-IR,TG and LDL-C,and negatively correlated with FINS,HDL-C,BALP,OST and CTX(P<0.05).Follow-up for 1 year,the incidence of MC in 211 children with T1DM was 29.86%(63/211).Elevated HbA1c,HOMA-IR,LDL-C,MCP-1 and IGFBP-3 were independent risk factors for MC in children with T1DM,and elevated GLP-1 was an independent protective factor(P<0.05).The area under the curve of ser-um GLP-1,MCP-1 and IGFBP-3 combined to predict MC in children with T1DM was 0.919,which was grea-ter than 0.781,0.788 and 0.794 predicted by serum GLP-1,MCP-1 and IGFBP-3 alone(P<0.05).Conclu-sion The decrease of serum GLP-1 level and the increase of MCP-1 and IGFBP-3 levels are related to glyco-lipid metabolism,bone metabolism disorder and MC in children with T1DM,the combined application of ser-um GLP-1,MCP-1 and IGFBP-3 has a good predictive value for MC in children with T1DM.

Bio-mineralization has emerged as a promising strategy to enhance vaccine immunogenicity. This study optimized the calcium phosphate (CaP) mineralization process of foot-and-mouth disease virus-like particles (FMD VLPs) to achieve high mineralization efficiency and scalability. Key parameters, including concentrations of Ca²⁺, HPO₄^2-, NaCl, and VLPs, as well as stirring speed, were systematically optimized. Stability of the scaled-up reaction system and immunogenicity of the mineralized vaccine were evaluated. Optimal conditions [25.50 mmol/L Ca(NO₃)₂, 15 mmol/L Na₂HPO₄, 300 mmol/L NaCl, 0.75 mg/mL VLPs, and 1 500 r/min] yielded CaP-mineralized VLPs (VLPs-CaP) with high mineralization efficiency, uniform morphology, and a favorable particle size. Scaling up the reaction by 25 folds maintained consistent mineralization efficiency and particle characteristics. Immunization in mice demonstrated that VLPs-CaP induced higher titers of specific antibodies and neutralizing antibodies than unmineralized VLPs (P < 0.05). Higher IgG2a/IgG1 ratio and enhanced IFN-γ secretion (P < 0.05) further indicated robust cellular immune responses. We establish a stable and scalable protocol for VLPs-CaP, providing a theoretical and technical foundation for developing high-efficacy VLPs-CaP vaccines.

The oropouche virus (OROV) poses a threat to pregnant women and fetuses, potentially causing fetal neurological defects and even stillbirth, which has caused global attention. OROV is an arthropod-borne virus belonging to the Orthobunyavirus genus in the Bunyavirales order, primarily transmitted by arthropods and causing oropouche fever. This article reviews the etiological characteristics, epidemiological distribution, clinical symptoms, detection methods, and prevention strategies of OROV. OROV is prevalent in Central and South America, with a sharp increase in cases reported in Brazil in 2024. The virus's symptoms resemble those of several other arthropod-borne viral diseases, which can lead to misdiagnosis. Currently, there are no specific drugs or vaccines available, and treatment is mainly supportive. Culicoides paraensis and Culex quinquefasciatus are among the significant vectors of OROV. Furthermore, the article analyzes the distribution of Culex quinquefasciatus in China, highlights the risk of imported cases, proposes targeted prevention and control strategies, and underscores the significance of international cooperation in disease prevention and control.
