Objective To investigate the detection conditions,risk factors and preventive measures of colorectal polyps in health examination population undergoing painless colonoscopy.Methods A total of 2 680 people who underwent painless colonoscopy at the Health Management Center of the First Affiliated Hospital of Naval Medical University from January to December 2023 were enrolled in this retrospective study.They were assigned into polyp group and non-polyp group according the examination results.The general information of the two groups was collected to explore the risk factors of colorectal polyps,so as to provide reference for the prevention strategy of colorectal polyps.Results The colorectal polyps were detected in 1 223 people(45.63%),including 633 cases(51.76%)of adenomatous polyps,587 cases(48.00%)of non-adenomatous polyps,and 3 cases(0.25%)of colorectal cancer.Logistic regression analysis indicated that male,smoking history,alcohol drinking history,age 40-59 years old,hyperlipidemia,and CRP>10 mg/L were risk factors of colorectal polyps(P<0.05).Conclusion There is a high detection rate of colorectal polyps in physical examination population.Men,aged 40-59 years old,hyperlipidemia,smoking history,alcohol drinking history,and CRP>10 mg/L are high risk factors of colorectal polyps,which should be paid more attention for the prevention and monitoring of colorectal polyps.

Objective:To explore the effects and mechanisms of Shen-su-yin (SSY) on acute lung injury (ALI) in rats based on untargeted Metabolomics, network pharmacology, and experimental verification.Methods:Untargeted Metabolomics was performed to detect the ingredients of SSY by using ultra-high performance liquid chromatography-Q-exactive orbitrap mass spectrum, and the active ingredients were screened from the detected ingredients. Common targets of the active ingredient targets and ALI targets were utilized to screen hub targets to perform gene ontology (GO) and Kyoto encyclopedia of genes and genomes (KEGG) enrichment analysis. Then, key hub targets were selected from the hub targets, and the active ingredients-hub targets network was built to screen core ingredients. Subsequently, molecular docking was performed between the key hub targets and the core ingredients. 48 rats were randomly and equally divided into 4 groups by using a random number table: normal control group, lipopolysaccharide-induced ALI group, ALI+SSY group, and ALI+dexamethasone group. 24 hours after lipopolysaccharide induction, the levels of respiratory rate, blood lactate, lung wet/dry weight ratio, ALI score, inflammatory factors of bronchoalveolar lavage fluid, and oxidative stress mediators of lung tissue in each group were evaluated, and the expression of phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase (PI3K)-protein kinase B (AKT)-glycogen synthase kinase (GSK) 3β-nuclear factor erythroid 2-related factor 2 (Nrf2)/nuclear factor (NF)-κB signaling pathway was also detected by using Western blot. Finally, one-way analysis of variance, Welch test, or Kruskal-Wallis H test was used to compare data differences among groups. Results:A total of 415 ingredients were detected from the SSY. 66 of the detected ingredients were identified as active ingredients, and 10 of them were selected as core ingredients. The number of common targets, hub targets, and key hub targets was 337, 50, and 10, respectively. Total of 285 biological processes, 32 cellular components, and 51 molecular functions were enriched though GO analysis, and 148 cell signaling pathways such as pathways in cancer and PI3K-AKT signaling pathway were enriched though KEGG analysis. Molecular docking studies revealed that all binding energies between the 10 key hub targets and the 10 core ingredients were less than -5 kcal/mol. Compared with the ALI group, the levels of the respiratory rate, blood lactate, and lung wet/dry weight ratio in ALI+SSY group were significantly decreased (all P<0.01), and the level of ALI score showed a downward trend, but the difference was not statistically significant ( P>0.05). In addition, the levels of interleukin-6, interleukin-1β, and tumor necrosis factor-α in bronchoalveolar lavage fluid and the levels of malondialdehyde, protein carbonyl, and 8-hydroxy-2-deoxyguanosine in lung tissue of rats in ALI+SSY group were significantly decreased in comparison with those in ALI group (all P<0.01). Moreover, compared with the ALI group, the phosphorylation levels of PI3K p85α, AKT1, and GSK3β and the expression level of Nrf2 in lung tissue of ALI+SSY group were significantly up-regulated (PI3K p85α phosphorylation and AKT1 phosphorylation, P<0.01; GSK3β phosphorylation and Nrf2, P<0.05), while the phosphorylation level of NF-κB p65 was significantly down-regulated ( P<0.01). Conclusions:Active ingredients detected from SSY via untargeted Metabolomics can inhibit oxidative stress and inflammation in ALI rats by regulating the PI3K-AKT-GSK3β-Nrf2/NF-κB signaling pathway, thereby alleviating lung lesions.

Objective:To explore the differences of gene expression profiles of precursors of exhausted T cells (Tpex) and terminal exhausted T cells (Tex) in the peripheral blood of patients with active pulmonary tuberculosis (ATB).Methods:Twenty-five cases of ATB, 13 cases of latent tuberculosis infection (LTBI) and 10 health controls were enrolled from January 2021 to October 2022 in the Fifth People′s Hospital of Wuxi. The proportions of Tpex and Tex in the peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs) of the three groups were detected by flowcytometry. PBMCs of ATB were separated into Tpex and Tex by fluorescence-activated cell sorting. RNA-sequencing was performed and up-regulated and down-regulated genes were screended. Differently expressed genes were analyzed by gene set enrichment analysis of gene ontology (GO) to find regulatory pathways affecting cell metabolism and function. Wilcoxon matched-pairs signed rank test, Kruskal-Wallis test and Dunn multiple comparsion test were used for statistical analysis.Results:The proportion of Tpex in ATB group was 2.86%(1.74%), which was lower than 7.93%(6.16%) of Tex, and the difference was statistically significant ( Z=-3.91, P<0.001). The proportions of Tpex and Tex in LTBI group were 9.47%(6.26%) and 7.43%(5.48%), respectively, and the difference was not statistically significant ( Z=-0.93, P=0.345). The proportions of Tpex and Tex in healthy control group were 8.42%(2.69%) and 6.49%(5.14%), respectively, with no statistical significance ( Z=-1.36, P=0.170). There was statistical difference of the proportion of Tpex among the three groups ( H=21.93, P<0.001), and the proportion of Tpex in ATB group was lower than those in LTBI and heathy control groups, and the differences were both statistically significant ( Z=4.16, P<0.001 and Z=3.34, P=0.003, respectively), while the proportions of Tex in these three groups were not statistically different ( H=2.17, P=0.338). Compared with Tex, the gene expressions of memory markers, such as B-cell lymphoma 2 of Tpex were up-regulated, and the gene expressions of exhausted markers, such as lymphocyte activation gene 3 were down-regulated. In terms of cellular metabolism, the gene expressions of mitochondrial protein complex, mitochondrial matrix and oxidative phosphorylation of Tpex were up-regulated, and the gene expressions of glycolysis were down-regulated. The gene expressions of pyruvate metabolism in Tex were up-regulated, and the gene expressions of CD4 + T lymphocyte activation and differentiation and glycolytic process in Tpex were down-regulated. Conclusions:Tpex in ATB express more characteristics of memory cells and less features of exhausted markers compared with Tex, and the function of mitochondria of Tpex preserves well.

Objective To establish a personalized Stanford type B aortic dissection numerical simulation model, and using computational fluid dynamics (CFD) numerical simulation to obtain the hemodynamic behavior and law of the type B aortic dissection at different stages of development. Methods Based on the theory of three-dimensional model reconstruction, we used CT images of a patient with type B aortic dissection in the Xiamen Cardiovascular Hospital of Xiamen University, relevant medical image processing software to reconstruct a personalized aortic three-dimensional model, and CFD to reconstruct the model which was simulated in fluid mechanics. Results The three-dimensional reconstruction model could intuitively observe the changing trend of the false cavity at different stages of the dissection development. Through fluid mechanics simulation, the blood flow rate, pressure, wall shear stress, vascular wall Von Mises stress and other parameters at different stages of the dissection development were obtained. Conclusion The hemodynamic behavior and law of relevant parameters in the development stage of aortic dissection are analyzed. The combination of the values of relevant parameters and clinical medical detection and diagnosis can well predict the development of the disease, and finally provide more theories and methods for the scientific diagnosis of aortic dissection.

Chronic kidney disease（CKD）has a significant impact on global public health and is one of the important factors leading to the rise of incidence rate and mortality of non communicable diseases.Intestinal microecology is involved in many pathophysiological activities，such as immunity and nutrient absorption.With proposal of the concept of intestine-kidney axis in 2002，researchers found that the decline of glomerular filtration rate led to accumulation of uremic toxins in intestine，destroyed the intestinal mucosal barrier，led to the translocation of toxins，activated the systemic oxidative stress response，further promoted the progress of CKD.This article reviewed the function of gut microbiota，intestine-gut kidney axis，and the application of microbial preparations in CKD.

Objective:To investigate the clinical features of nontuberculous mycobacteria (NTM) disease patients with positive anti-interferon γ (IFN-γ) autoantibody.Methods:Forty-three adult human immunodeficiency virus-uninfected patients with NTM disease hospitalized in Huashan Hospital, Fudan University and Jing′an Branch, Huashan Hospital, Fudan University from July 2021 to August 2023 were included. Clinical data and NTM strain information of the patients were collected. The plasma levels of anti-IFN-γ autoantibodies were detected by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay, and the patients were divided into antibody positive group and antibody negative group. The clinical characteristics and laboratory examination results between the two groups were compared. The independent sample t test, Mann-Whitney U test and chi-square test were used for statistical analysis. Multivariate logistic regression analysis was used to determine the correlation factors of positive anti-IFN-γ autoantibodies. Results:Among the 43 patients, 13 cases (30.2%) were positive for anti-IFN-γ autoantibodies and 30 cases (69.8%) were negative. The proportions of patients with NTM disseminated infection (9/13 vs 30.0%(9/30))and combined bacterial infection (5/13 vs 6.7%(2/30)) in antibody positive group were both higher than those in antibody negative group, and the differences were both statistically significant ( χ2=5.74 and 6.73, respectively, both P<0.05). The white blood cell count, platelet count, the proportion of platelet count >350×10 9/L of antibody positive patients were all higher than those of antibody negative group, while the white sphere ratio was lower than that of antibody negative group, with statistical significance ( t=2.42, 3.02, χ2=9.77 and t=3.66, respectively, all P<0.05). Erythrocyte sedimentation rate, C-reactive protein, procalcitonin, globulin, immunoglobulin G, immunoglobulin A and immunoglobulin M in antibody positive patients were all higher than those in antibody negative group, and the differences were all statistically significant ( U=99.50, 112.00, 115.50, 61.50, 76.50, 99.00 and 83.00, respectively, all P<0.05). Mycobacterium abscessus complex (seven cases and 11 cases, respectively) and Mycobacterium avium complex (five cases and 13 cases, respectively) were the main isolated strains in antibody positive and antibody negative patients. Multivariate logistic regression analysis showed that combined with bacterial infection (odds ratio ( OR)=21.83, 95% confidence interval ( CI) 1.94 to 245.71), NTM disseminated infection ( OR=7.64, 95% CI 1.10 to 53.26), platelet count>350×10 9/L ( OR=14.31, 95% CI 1.91 to 107.04) were risk factors for anti-IFN-γ autoantibodies positive (all P<0.05). Conclusions:Patients with positive anti-IFN-γ autoantibodies have higher probability of having elevated levels of systemic inflammation. Anti-IFN-γ autoantibody test is recommended for patients with NTM disease who present with co-bacterial infection, NTM disseminated infection, or elevated platelet count (>350×10 9/L).

Objective To analyze the results of cephalometric indicators of facial morphology and hyoid bone position in children with obstructive sleep apnea syndrome (OSAS). Methods A total of 78 children with OSAS were randomly selected and included in OSAS group. Another 78 healthy children who had not received otolaryngology, orthodontics or speech therapy were selected as healthy control group. Children in both groups underwent otolaryngology evaluation and cephalometric measurement, and the OSAS group also underwent overnight polysomnography (PSG) examination. Results The cephalometric measurement results of the facial shape showed that the facial anterior height (N-Me) and facial anterior inferior height (ANS-Me) in the OSAS group were higher than those in the healthy control group (P < 0.05). There were no significant differences in the facial anterior superior height (N-ANS) and facial posterior total height (S-Go) between the OSAS group and the healthy control group (P>0.05). The hyoid bone measurement results showed that the vertical distance from the hyoid bone point to the mandibular plane (HyS), the linear distance from the most anterior superior point of the hyoid bone to the most inferior point of the third cervical vertebra (C3-H), the anterior point of the hyoid bone (Dh-H), the vertical distance from the most anterior point of the hyoid bone to the palatal plane (HyMP), and the most posterior point of the hyoid bone (Dv-H)in the OSAS group were all greater than those in the healthy control group (P < 0.05). Conclusion Compared with healthy children, there are significant changes in facial growth and development in children with OSAS, which are characterized by increased N-Me and ANS-Me, as well as increased HyS, C3-H, HyMP, Dh-H, and Dv-H.
