OBJECTIVE To analyze the influencing factors of voriconazole trough concentration and adverse drug reactions （ADR） in renal transplant recipients. METHODS Data from inpatients who received voriconazole and therapeutic drug monitoring in our hospital between January 2022 and August 2023 were retrospectively analyzed. Patients were divided into renal transplant group and non-renal transplant group based on transplantation status. A 1∶1 propensity score matching （PSM） method was used to balance differences in baselines between the two groups. Voriconazole trough concentrations， target attainment rate， clinical efficacy， and ADR were compared between the two groups. Multiple linear regression （backward） was used to analyze the factors influencing voriconazole trough concentrations in the renal transplant group. Univariate analysis and binary Logistic regression were used to identify independent risk factors for ADR in the renal transplant group. RESULTS After PSM， 48 patients were included in each group. There were no statistically significant differences in the mean voriconazole trough concentration， target attainment rate or efficacy rate between the two groups （P＞0.05）. The total incidence of ADR was significantly higher in the renal transplant group than in the non-renal transplant group （P＜0.05）. Multiple linear regression analysis showed that age， average daily dose， pulmonary infection， total bilirubin during medication， day-1 loading dose， use of the original drug， concomitant immunosuppressant use， and the occurrence of ADR were factors influencing voriconazole trough concentration in renal transplant patients （P＜0.05）. Binary Logistic regression analysis showed that abnormal direct bilirubin during medication [OR＝7.747， 95%CI （1.334， 45.005）， P＝0.023] was an independent risk factor for ADR in renal transplant patients receiving voriconazole. CONCLUSIONS Age， average daily dose， pulmonary infection， use of the original drug， day-1 loading dose， total bilirubin during medication， concomitant immunosuppressant use， and the occurrence of ADR are the factors influencing voriconazole trough concentration in renal transplant patients. Furthermore， patients with abnormal direct bilirubin during medication are more susceptible to ADR.

ObjectiveTo investigate the pathogenic spectrum and epidemiological characteristics of diarrheal disease in Fengxian District of Shanghai, and to provide scientific basis for the prevention and control of diarrheal diseases. MethodsBasic information of the initial adult cases visited diarrheal disease surveillance sentinel hospital in Fengxian District, Shanghai, was collected from August 2013 to 2023, and fecal samples were collected at 1∶5 sampling intervals to isolate and identify 5 kinds of diarrheagenic Escherichia coli (DEC), Salmonella (SAL), Vibrio parahaemolyticus, Campylobacter, Vibrio cholerae, Shigella and Yersinia enterocolitica (YE). Simultaneously, nucleic acid detection was performed for 3 kinds of rotavirus, 2 kinds of norovirus, intestinal adenovirus, astrovirus and sapovirus. ResultsA total of 1 861 cases of newly diagnosed diarrheal disease were reported, with the peak in July to August. Additionally, 704 surveillance samples were detected, with a total positive detection rate of 50.57%. The detection rates of bacterial, viral and mixed infection were 25.14%, 21.02% and 4.40%, respectively. Among the pathogens detected, DEC accounted for the highest (17.61%, 124/704), followed by norovirus (16.48%, 116/704), rotavirus (6.39%, 45/704), SAL (5.97%, 42/704) and Campylobacter (3.84%, 27/704). DEC detected were mainly enteroaggregative Escherichia coli and enterotoxigenic Escherichia coli, with no detection of Vibrio cholerae, Shigella and YE. The highest total pathogen detection rate was observed from June to September, and the detection peaks of norovirus were from March to June and from October to December, whereas that of DEC was from June to October. The detection rate of rotavirus peaked from January to February, but which was not detected between 2020‒2023. The SAL positive rate peak was in September, whereas that of Campylobacter was from July to September. ConclusionThe main pathogens detected in Fengxian District from 2013‒2019 are DEC, norovirus, rotavirus, SAL and Campylobacter. Different pathogens have different detection peaks, with bacteria predominating in summer and viruses in winter and spring. Prevention and control measures should be carried out according to the epidemiological characteristics of different seasons.

OBJECTIVE To compare the efficacy and safety of different daily doses of aspirin in the prevention of preeclampsia （PE）. METHODS The case-control studies and prospective randomized controlled trials on aspirin with daily dose ≥ 100 mg （trial group） vs. ＜100 mg （control group） in the prevention of PE were retrieved from PubMed， Medline， Embase， the Cochrane Library， CNKI， China Biomedical Literatue Database and Wanfang Data from base-building to January 2025. After literature screening， data extraction and quality evaluation， meta-analysis was performed by using RevMan 5.3 software. RESULTS A total of 11 literatures were included， involving 3 052 pregnant women. Meta-analysis showed the incidence of PE [RR＝0.63， 95%CI （0.53，0.76）， P＜0.000 01]， gestational hypertension [RR＝0.69， 95%CI （0.50，0.94），P＝0.02]， preterm birth [RR＝0.56， 95%CI （0.47，0.66）， P＜0.000 01]， and intrauterine growth retardation [RR＝0.73，95%CI （0.61，0.87），P＝0.000 5] in trial groups were significantly lower than control group. The incidence of postpartum hemorrhage between the two groups had no statistically significant difference [RR＝1.17， 95%CI （0.90，1.53），P＝0.25]. Subgroup analysis showed that the incidence of PE in Chinese pregnant women taking 150 mg of aspirin was significantly higher than taking 100 mg of aspirin [RR＝3.40， 95%CI （1.29， 8.93）， P＝0.01]； but there was no significant difference between the two groups in the incidences of postpartum hemorrhage， preterm birth （P＞0.05）. CONCLUSIONS Aspirin with daily dose ≥100 mg is more effective in preventing PE than daily dose ＜100 mg， with lower rates of gestational hypertension， preterm birth， and intrauterine growth retardation. It does not increase the risk of postpartum hemorrhage. For pregnant women in China， daily dose 100 mg of aspirin may be more effective in preventing PE than 150 mg.

OBJECTIVES: To evaluate the impact of HBV infection on pre- and postpartum health-related quality of life (HRQoL) in pregnant women. METHODS: A prospective matched cohort consisting of 70 HBV-infected and 70 healthy pregnant women was recruited from the Fifth Affiliated Hospital of Guangzhou Medical University between April 17 and September 25, 2023. HRQoL of the participants was assessed at 16-24 weeks of gestation, between 32 weeks and delivery, and 5-13 weeks postpartum. Mixed linear models were used for evaluating temporal trends of HRQoL changes, and univariate ANOVA with multiple linear regression was used to identify the predictors of HRQoL. RESULTS: Compared with healthy pregnant women, HBV-infected pregnant women had consistently lower total HRQoL scores across all the 3 intervals, with the lowest scores observed between 32 weeks of gestation and delivery, during which these women had significantly reduced mental component scores (74.27±13.43 vs 80.21±12.9, P=0.009) and postpartum mental (76.52±16.19 vs 85.02±6.51, P<0.001) and physical component scale scores (77.17±14.71 vs 83.09±10.1, P=0.009). HBV infection was identified as an independent risk factor affecting HRQoL during late pregnancy and postpartum periods. Additional independent risk factors for postpartum HRQoL reduction included self-pay medical expenses, spouse's neutral attitude toward the current pregnancy, and preexisting comorbidities (all P<0.05). CONCLUSIONS HRQoL of pregnant women deteriorates progressively in late pregnancy, and HBV infection exacerbates reductions of physical function and role emotion in late pregnancy and after delivery, suggesting the importance of targeted interventions for financial burdens, partner support and comorbid conditions to improve HRQoL of pregnant women with HBV infection.

Objective This study aimed to explore the expression trends of innate immune cells and immune-checkpoint molecules validated by data calculation in the process of oral mucosal carcinogenesis,as well as to explore methods of suppressing oral mucosal carcinogenesis based on immunotherapy by predicting their interactions.Me-thods 1)The cancer genome atlas(TCGA)database comprehensively scores immune cells and immune-checkpoint molecules in the process of oral mucosal carcinogenesis and screens out intrinsic immune cells and immune-check-point molecules that interfere with tumor immune escape.2)Clinical patient blood routine data were collected for the statistical analysis of peripheral blood immune cells during the progression of oral mucosal carcinogenesis.Immune cells in peripheral blood that may affect the progression of oral mucosal carcinogenesis were screened.3)Immunohis-tochemical staining was performed on intrinsic immune cells and immune-checkpoint molecules validated based on da-ta calculation in various stages of oral mucosal carcinogenesis.4)Special staining was used to identify innate immune cells in various stages of oral mucosal carcinogenesis based on data-calculation verification.5)Survival analysis was conducted on intrinsic immune cells and immune-checkpoint molecules validated based on data calculation during the process of oral mucosal carcinogenesis.The association of intrinsic immune cells and immune-checkpoint molecules with the prognosis of oral squamous cell carcinoma was verified.Results The expression of monocytes and neutro-phils increased during the process of oral mucosal carcinogenesis.The expression of eosinophils showed a single peak trend of up and down.The expression of mast cells decreased.In the process of oral mucosal carcinogenesis,the ex-pression of the immune-checkpoint molecules cytotoxic T-lymphocyte-associated protein 4(CTLA4)and programmed cell death-ligand(PD-L1)increased.The expression trends of monocytes,neutrophils,and eosinophils were positively correlated with those of CTLA4 and PD-L1 immune-checkpoint molecules.The expression trend of mast cells was negatively correlated with the expression of CTLA4 and PD-L1.Monocytes,neutrophils,and eosinophils may pro-mote tumor immune escape mediated by CTLA4 and/or PD-L1,thereby accelerating the progression of oral mucosal carcinogenesis.Mast cells may inhibit tumor immune escape mediated by CTLA4 and/or PD-L1,delaying the progres-sion of oral mucosal carcinogenesis.Conclusion Therefore,interference with specific immune cells in innate immu-nity can regulate the expression of CTLA4 and/or PD-L1 to a certain extent,inhibit tumor immune escape,and delay the progression of oral mucosal carcinogenesis.

ObjectiveTo understand the incidence and death of female breast cancer patients and the premature death caused by breast cancer in Putuo District of Shanghai， and to reduce the incidence of breast cancer， mortality and the probability of early death， and to provide reference for realizing the control target of the probability of early death of major chronic diseases. MethodsThe incidence and death data of the registered female residents with breast cancer in Putuo District of Shanghai from 2004 to 2019 were collected using Shanghai Population-based tumor registration management system. The crude incidence rate， standardized incidence rate， crude mortality rate， standardized mortality rate， age-specific incidence rate， age-specific mortality rate and other indicators were calculated. The Joinpoint regression model was used to calculate the annual percentage change （APC） and average annual percentage change （AAPC） of breast cancer incidence， mortality and premature death probability， and to analyze the changing trend. ResultsFrom 2004 to 2019， the crude incidence of breast cancer in Putuo District of Shanghai increased from 75.76/10⁵ to 95.77/10⁵ （APC=2.26%， t=6.05， P<0.01）， while the standardized incidence did not decrease significantly during 2004‒2008 （APC=-4.83%， t=-1.81， P=0.10） and showed an upward trend after 2008 （APC=1.67%， t=2.84， P=0.02）. The crude mortality rate changed from 18.52 per 10⁵ to 21.63 per 10⁵ （APC= 1.51%， t=1.52， P=0.15）， and the standardized mortality rate decreased from 9.91/10⁵ to 7.44/10⁵ （APC=-1.46%， t=-2.43， P=0.03）. The incidence rate in the group of 30‒69 years increased from 98.39/10⁵ to 111.75/10⁵ （APC=1.14%， t=3.05， P=0.01）， and the mortality rate increased from 16.13/10⁵ to 19.30/10⁵ （APC=0.48%， t=0.84， P=0.41）. The incidence rate of patients aged ≥70 years varied from 165.68/10⁵ to 139.53/10⁵ （APC=1.54%， t=1.25， P=0.23）， and the mortality rate changed from 85.08/10⁵ to 56.64/10⁵ （APC=-0.18%， t=-0.08， P=0.94）. The probability of premature death from breast cancer decreased from 7.73‰ to 6.61‰ （APC=-1.56%， t=-2.30， P=0.04）. ConclusionThe risk of female breast cancer morbidity and death can not be ignored， and the control pressure of premature death probability is still large. Attention should be paid to the age group of 30‒69 years old， and further measures should be taken to control the increase of incidence and to reduce mortality， so as to reduce the probability of premature death of female breast cancer， and promote the realization of the overall control goal of premature death probability.

Objective To analyze the magnetic resonance images (MRI) of patients with spinal epidural lipomatosis (SEL) in high-altitude areas and to determine the optimal cut-off value for diagnosis with epidural fat thickness. Methods This retrospective study included patients who underwent lumbosacral MRI examination for lumbosacral pain in Ping’an District Hospital of Traditional Chinese Medicine, Haidong City, China from January 1, 2021 to December 31, 2022. The epidural fat thickness in vertebral segments T12/L1 to L5/S1 was compared between the SEL group and the non-SEL group. The diagnostic efficacy with different cut-off values at each vertebral segment was evaluated. Between-group comparisons were performed using the t-test, Mann-Whitney U test, chi-square test, or modified chi-square test. The area under the receiver operating characteristic (AUC) was used to evaluate the diagnostic efficiency. The DeLong test was used to compare AUC between the two groups. Results A total of 370 patients were included (60 in the SEL group and 310 in the non-SEL group). There were no significant differences in age, sex, height, body weight, and body mass index between the two groups (all P > 0.05). At different vertebral segments, the epidural fat thickness was significantly higher in the SEL group than in the non-SEL group (all P < 0.05). The cut-off values for SEL diagnosis with epidural fat thickness in segments T12/L1 to L5/S1 were 2.23, 4.25, 4.85, 5.57, 7.21, and 8 mm, respectively. The AUC of MRI SEL diagnosis with epidural fat thickness in segment L5/S1 was the highest (0.945, 95% confidence interval [CI]: 0.916-0.966, P < 0.001). SEL diagnosis with epidural fat thickness > 8 mm in segment L5/S1 was the most accurate, with an AUC of 0.931 (95% CI: 0.901-0.955, P < 0.001), a sensitivity of 95.0%, and a specificity of 91.3%; this AUC was significantly higher than those of diagnosis with other cut-off values (all P < 0.05). Conclusion SEL patients have significantly increased epidural fat in the spinal canal. Epidural fat thickness > 8 mm in segment L5/S1 can be used for diagnosis of SEL with improved efficiency and accuracy.

ObjectiveUltra-performance liquid chromatography-quadrupole/electrostatic field orbitrap high resolution mass spectrometry（UPLC-Q-Exactive Orbitrap MS/MS） was used to investigate the metabolism and distribution of nardosinone in rats， then metabolic pathways were speculated. MethodRats were administered with 30 mg·kg^-1 of nardosinone suspension by gavage for 3 consecutive days， and plasma， urine， feces， and tissues of heart， liver， spleen， lung， kidney， brain， stomach， and intestine were collected at predetermined time points. After treatment， the samples were processed for UPLC-Q-Exactive Orbitrap MS/MS， and the MS data were analyzed using Xcalibur 2.2 software. The metabolites were searched by comparing the base peak chromatogram and extracted ion chromatogram between the treated group and blank group， and based on the relative retention time（t_R）， quasi-molecular ion peak， precise molecular mass， and fragment ions of MS/MS， the elemental composition were searched using databases such as SciFinder and PubChem， as well as referring to relevant literature， the possible metabolites were identified and the metabolic pathways were inferred. ResultA total of 30 metabolites of nardosinone were identified， including 15， 19， 12， 7， 4， 11， 8， 13， 13， 8 and 12 metabolites in urine， feces， plasma， brain， heart， liver， spleen， lung， kidney， stomach and intestine， respectively. The main metabolic pathways of nardosinone in rats were hydroxylation， dehydroxylation， reduction， dehydrogenation， hydration， dehydration， carboxylation， glucuronidation， and dehydroxy-isopropyl. ConclusionNardosinone can be metabolized by phase Ⅰ and phase Ⅱ metabolism in rats， and the metabolites are widely distributed in the major organs. The results of this study can provide a basis for further research on the pharmacodynamic material basis， pharmacological mechanism and clinical application of nardosinone.

Objective: To explore of executive function in obese adolescents, so as to provide a reference for executive function enhancement intervention in obese adolescents. Methods: A convenience sample of 1 227 adolescents aged 13-18 years was selected from 2 secondary schools in Taiyuan City during March-April 2023. The Flanker task, N-back task and More odd shifting task was used to compare the different subfunctions of executive function (refreshing function, shifting function, inhibiting function) of 61 obese adolescents and 70 normal weight adolescents. Independent samples t-tests was used for between group comparisons and Cohen s d -tests was used to calculate between group differences in executive function between the two groups of adolescents. Results: Compared with the group of normal weight, time responses of the inhibitory function [(29.73±19.55)ms], the refreshing function [1-back: (1 088.75±275.76)ms, 2-back:( 1 285.44± 355.16)ms] and the shifting function [(380.34±153.18) ms] in the obese group were significantly longer than those in the normal weight group [(14.86±20.27, 888.38±286.57, 1 126.20± 287.43 , 323.12±134.71) ms] ( t =4.26, 4.06, 1.92,2.26, P < 0.05 ); inhibitory function (0.91±0.09) and 1-back (0.73±0.24) were also significantly less correct than in the normal weight group (0.94±0.05, 0.83±0.21) ( t =-2.04, -2.04, P <0.05). Obese adolescents showed moderate adverse effect sizes in the inhibition function ( d =0.746,0.712) and the refresh function 1-back, and smaller adverse effect sizes in the refresh function 2-back and the conversion function( d =0.497,0.398). Conclusion Obese adolescents have significant executive function deficits, but the degree of adverse varies across sub-functions, with inhibitory function being the core deficit component of executive function in obese adolescents.

Objective: To explore the relationship between cardiorespiratory fitness and executive function in Chinese adolescents, so as to provide a reference for promoting the overall development of Chinese adolescents physical and mental health. Methods: From September to December 2022, a total of 5 018 adolescents aged 13 to 18 years from Shanghai, Suzhou, Taiyuan, Wuyuan, Xingyi, and Urumqi were selected by stratified cluster sampling method to assess cardiorespiratory fitness and executive function. Pearson s correlation and linear hierarchical regression were performed to analyze the relationship between cardiorespiratory fitness and executive functions. Results: Among the sample of adolescents, maximal oxygen consumption (VO 2max ) was negatively correlated with the refreshing(1-back, 2-back) and conversion executive function responses ( r=-0.07, -0.12, -0.12, P <0.01). Linear regression analysis showed that VO 2max was negatively correlated with the reaction times of the refreshing(1-back, 2-back) and conversion functions ( B=-2.99, -6.44, -1.69, P <0.01). Conclusions Higher cardiorespiratory fitness among adolescents is associated with better performance in executive function. Teenagers should strengthen high intensity cardiopulmonary endurance exercise to promote the improvement of executive function.
