Objective To develop a multivariate modeling and prediction approach using the data of influenza incidence, meteorological factors and PM_2.5 variables in Hefei City, and to provide new insights into multivariate modeling and prediction methods. Methods PM_2.5 data were transformed into fractal dimension data and, along with meteorological data, were incorporated into a ConvLSTM model. The performance of this model was compared with traditional ARIMAX and multivariate LSTM models. Results The ARIMAX model's testing set Mean Absolute Error (MAE) was 95.75, Root Mean Square Error (RMSE) was 176.72, and Index of Agreement (IA) was 0.396642. The multivariate LSTM model's testing set MAE was 22.18, RMSE was 43.06, and IA was 0.974611. For the fractal dimension-based ConvLSTM model, the testing set MAE was 17.37, RMSE was 32.25, and IA was 0.988149. Conclusion The fractal dimension effectively captures the complexity and self-similarity of PM_2.5 concentration, providing the model with richer feature information. The fractal dimension-based ConvLSTM model significantly outperforms the traditional ARIMAX model and the multivariate LSTM model in prediction accuracy and can be used for predicting the number of influenza cases.

Objective To explore the effect of mangiferin(MF)on pyroptosis in an amyotrophic lateral sclerosis(ALS)cell model by regulating the nuclear factor erythroid 2-related factor 2/heme oxygenase-1(Nrf2/HO-1)signaling pathway.Methods(1)Mouse NSC-34 cell lines transfected with hSOD1WT and hSOD1G93A plasmids were randomly divided into blank group,model group,MF(100 μmol/L)group,MF(200 μmol/L)group.MF was added into the culture plate for 24 hours.Cell viability was assessed using CCK-8 kit.Lactate dehydrogenase(LDH)release was measured using LDH cytotoxicity detection kit.Levels of inflammatory factors interleukin(IL)-1β and IL-18 in cell supernatant were determined by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay(ELISA).The expression of Nrf2,HO-1,NADPH quinone oxidoreductase-1(NQO-1),NOD-like receptor protein 3(NLRP3),gasdermin D(GSDMD)-N and caspase-1 was detected by Western blotting.(2)Mouse hSOD1G93A NSC-34 cells were randomly divided into model group,MF(200 μmol/L)group,Nrf2-siRNA group and Nrf2-siRNA+MF(200 μmol/L)group.The cells were transiently transfected with Nrf2-siRNA using LipofectamineTM 3000.Western blotting was used to detect the protein expression levels of Nrf2,HO-1,NQO-1,NLRP3,caspase-1 and GSDMD-N.Results(1)The results of the CCK-8 assay showed that after the hSOD1G93A NSC-34 cells were treated with MF at concentrations of 300 μmol/L and below for 24 hours,the changes in cell viability were not significant(P>0.05).Compared with blank group,the release of LDH,the contents of IL-1β and IL-18 in the cell culture supernatant of model group were increased(P<0.001);the protein expression levels of Nrf2,HO-1,and NQO-1 were decreased(P<0.05 or P<0.01);the protein expression levels of NLRP3,caspase-1,and GSDMD-N were increased(P<0.05 or P<0.01 or P<0.001).Compared with model group,the release of LDH,the contents of IL-18 and IL-1β in the culture supernatant in MF(100 μmol/L)and MF(200 μmol/L)groups were decreased(P<0.001);the protein expression levels of NLRP3,caspase-1 and GSDMD-N were decreased(P<0.05 or P<0.001),and the expression levels of Nrf2,HO-1 and NQO-1 were increased(P<0.05 or P<0.01).(2)Compared with model group,the protein expession levels of Nrf2,NO-1 and NQO-1 were increased(P<0.05 or P<0.001)in MF(200 μmol/L)group,while the protein expression levels of NLRP3,caspase-1 and GSDMD-N were decreased(P<0.001);the protein expression levels of Nrf2 and HO-1 were decreased in Nrf2-siRNA group(P<0.01 or P<0.001),while the protein expression levels of NLRP3,caspase-1 and GSDMD-N were increased(P<0.001).Compared with Nrf2-siRNA group,the protein expression levels of Nrf2,HO-1 and NQO-1 in Nrf2-siRNA+MF(200 μmol/L)group were increased(P<0.01 or P<0.001),and the protein expression levels of NLRP3,caspase-1 and GSDMD-N were decreased(P<0.001).Conclusion MF can inhibit pyroptosis in the ALS cell model through Nrf2/HO-1 signaling pathway,playing a protective role.

Objective To investigate the dynamic changes of N-terminal pro-brain natriuretic peptide(NT-proBNP)and high-sensitivity cardiac troponin T(hs-cTnT)during gestation period in women with heart disease,and to evaluate their predictive value for adverse pregnancy outcomes.Methods A total of 221 pregnant women with heart disease undergoing peripartum management were enrolled and divided into adverse outcome group(n=68)and favorable outcome group(n=153)based on pregnancy outcomes.General clinical data and pregnancy outcomes were compared between two groups.Levels of NT-proBNP and hs-cTnT were measured during early pregnancy,mid-pregnan-cy as well as late pregnancy and within 24 hours postpartum.The predictive value of NT-proBNP and hs-cTnT for adverse pregnancy outcomes was evaluated using receiver operating characteristic(ROC)curve analysis.Multivariate Logistic regression analysis was used to screen independent risk factors for adverse pregnancy outcomes.Results There was a statistically significant difference in the New York Heart Association(NYHA)cardiac function classification,left ventricular ejection fraction(LVEF)and pulmonary artery systolic pressure(PASP)between two groups(P＜0.001).In the early stage of pregnancy,the second stage of pregnancy,the third stage of pregnancy and at 24 hours after delivery,the levels of NT-proBNP and hs-cTnT in the adverse outcome group were higher than those in the favorable outcome group,and the differences were statistically significant(P＜0.001).The incidence of maternal complications in the adverse outcome group was higher than that in the favorable outcome group,and the difference was statistically significant(P＜0.01 or P＜0.001).The rates of preterm birth,low birth weight and neonatal asphyxia in the adverse outcome group were higher than those in the favorable outcome group,and the differences were statistically significant(P＜0.01 or P＜0.001).The ROC curve analysis showed that the area under the curve(AUC)of NT-proBNP was 0.892(95％CI,0.845 to 0.939),the AUC of hs-cTnT was 0.857(95％CI,0.802 to 0.912),and the AUC of the combined detection of the two was 0.924(95％CI,0.885 to0.963).The NT-proBNP＞986.5 pg/mL(OR=6.85,95％CI,3.24 to 14.46)and hs-cTnT＞15.8 ng/L(OR=5.62,95％CI,3.24 to 14.46)in the third trimester 2.86 to 11.05)and NYHA class Ⅲ to Ⅳ(OR=4.28,95％CI,1.96 to 9.35)were independent risk factors for adverse pregnancy outcomes.Conclusion The levels of NT-proBNP and hs-cTnT during the perina-tal period in patients with pregnancy complicated with heart disease show dynamic changes.Monito-ring two indicators has important clinical value for predicting adverse pregnancy outcomes.

Widespread utilization of glyphosate has led to environmental residues,posing potential threats to ecological systems and human health.Traditional methods for detection of glyphosate are limited by specialized equipment and operational techniques,resulting in inefficient responses.Therefore,it is urgent to develop a convenient,sensitive and accurate detection method for detection of glyphosate.Herein,a new naphthalenesulfonamide-based"Turn-on"fluorescent probe was synthesized using 2-chloroaniline and dansyl chloride as raw materials through a one-step process,which showed a good linear relationship between the glyphosate concentration in concentration range of 0.003-70 μmol/L and the fluorescence intensity(R2=0.995),with a detection limit of 2.73 nmol/L(S/N=3).Analytical techniques such as nuclear magnetic resonance(NMR)spectroscopy and high-resolution mass spectrometry(HRMS)were used to investigate the interaction mechanism between the fluorescent probe and glyphosate.The results indicated that a nucleophilic substitution reaction occurred between the probe and the secondary amine(—NH—)of glyphosate,inducing a photoinduced electron transfer(PET)effect which enhanced the fluorescence intensity by 11.2 times.The probe showed good anti-interference ability towards coexisting metal ions,anions and pesticides in water.When applied to determination of glyphosate in the samples such as tap water,river water(Xiangxi River Reservoir),soil,soybeans,and corn,the spiking recoveries ranged from 94.7％to 109.9％,demonstrating the high accuracy and broad applicability of this detection method.A portable test strip based on this fluorescent probe was developed for rapid semi-quantitative analysis of glyphosate.The developed method was rapid,sensitive,and portable,providing theoretical and technical support for on-site measurement of environmental contaminants.

The paper reports a case of Fabry disease in a child with non-singular nocturnal enuresis as the first symptom. The boy developed unexplained nocturnal enuresis with frequent daytime urination since the age of 6. Fabry disease was detected and diagnosed by chance through high-risk screening. The activity of α-galactosidase A by dry blood spot was 1.97 μmol·L -1·h -1 , and there was c.640-801G>A mutation in GLA gene. Urine routine, urinary microprotein and renal function were normal. However, there were mulberry bodies found in urine deposition microscopy, suggesting the presence of kidney injury. This case suggests that enuresis can be the first symptom of Fabry disease, and mulberry bodies can be seen in the urine at the early stage of the disease.

Objective:To evaluate the efficacy and feasibility of a domestically developed robotic surgical system based on fiber-optic dedicated line communication in cross-regional urological telesurgery.Methods:This was multicenter，single-arm，retrospective case series study. The data of patients who underwent urological telesurgeries using the telesurgical system between January 2023 and December 2024 were analyzed. The cohort included 59 patients from seven hospitals across China. Among the patients，47 were male（79.7%）and 12 were female（20.3%），with a median age of 63.0（56.0，68.0）years and a body mass index of（24.7 ± 3.0）kg/m 2. Surgical procedures included 32 radical prostatectomies，24 partial nephrectomies，one radical nephrectomy，one adrenalectomy，and one ureteral reconstruction. The perioperative indicators，pathological results and postoperative complications were analyzed. The network monitoring data were collected，and the perioperative data of patients，remote system monitoring data and costs were compared between the two communication modes of optical transport network（OTN）and cloud-connect network（CCN）. Results:All 59 remote surgeries were successfully completed，with a mean operative time of（138.0 ± 54.0）minutes，median intraoperative blood loss of 50.0（30.0，100.0）ml and a postoperative hospital stay of 5.0（4.0，6.0）days. No cases required reoperation，Clavien-Dindo grade ≥3 complications，or readmission. The geographical distance between the primary and remote surgical sites ranged from 450 to 2 800 km. Network monitoring revealed increased bidirectional latency with distance increasing：the shortest latency time（Hefei-Hangzhou，450 km）was（16.59 ± 0.80）ms，while the longest（Harbin-Hangzhou，2 200 km）latency time was（53.31 ± 0.31）ms. Average frame loss per procedure was 0?1.27 frames. The results of subgroup analysis comparing OTN and CCN communication modes showed no significant differences in operative time［（130.7 ± 70.5）minutes vs.（142.1 ± 42.9）minutes， P = 0.442］，postoperative hospitalization［6.0（4.0，8.0）d vs. 5.0（4.0，6.0）d， P = 0.581］，or readmission rates（0 vs. 0）. However，CCN demonstrated significant cost advantages with 500 RMB per operation vs. 3 000 RMB per operation for OTN. Conclusions:Urological telesurgery using fiber-optic communication is feasible. The CCN mode，with its cost-effectiveness，excellent usability，and multi-point interconnection flexibility，is currently the preferred communication model for telesurgical applications.

OBJECTIVE To establish a risk prediction model for antibiotic-associated diarrhea(AAD)in intensive care unit(ICU)patients receiving mechanical ventilation so as to provide bases for early identification of high-risk population and formulation of corresponding individualized prevention strategies.METHODS A total of 1016 pa-tients who received mechanical ventilation and were treated with antibiotics in the ICU of The First Medical Center of Chinese PLA General Hospital from Jan.1,2020 to Jun.30,2022 were retrospectively enrolled in the study and were divided into the AAD group with 200 cases and the non-AA group according to the diagnostic criteria for AAD.Multivariate logistic regression analysis was performed for risk factors for AAD in the ICU patients receiv-ing mechanical ventilation,and the nomogram prediction model was established with R software.The performance of the model was evaluated by means of receiver operating characteristic(ROC)curves and calibration curves.RESULTS Among the 1016 patients who underwent mechanical ventilation,200 had AAD,and the incidence rate of AAD was 19.69％.Multivariate logistic regression analysis showed that hemoglobulin[OR=0.990,95％CI(0.983 to 0.997)],C-reactive protein[OR=1.046,95％CI(1.009 to 1.085)],serum phosphorus[OR=0.498,95％CI(0.328 to 0.755)],serum lipase[OR=1.001,95％CI(1.000 to 1.002)],ceftriaxo ne sodium[OR=2.331,95％CI(1.253 to 4.334)],linezolid[OR=2.387,95％CI(1.329 to 4.289)],fluconazole[OR=2.083,95％CI(1.238 to 3.505)]and sedatives[OR=0.307,95％CI(0.160 to 0.590)]were the risk factors for the AAD in the ICU patients receiving mechanical ventilation.The area under ROC curve(AUC)of the predic-tion model established based on the risk factors was 0.705 for the training set,0.751 for the validation set.Hos-mer-Lemeshow test indicated that the predicated probability of the model was consistent with the actual risk for the occurrence(x2=6.057,5.304,P=0.641,0.725).CONCLUSION The nomogram model that is established based on the above influencing factors can quantitatively predict the risk for AAD in the ICU patients undergo-ing mechanical ventilation,and it has certain clinical predictive efficiency.

Objective:To observe the effects of auricular point compression and exercise therapy on glycolipid metabolism,oxidative stress and sleep quality in type 2 diabetes mellitus(T2DM)patients with poor glycemic control.Methods:This study was a single-center randomized controlled study,86 T2DM patients with poor glycemic control who were treated in our hospital from June 2022 to June 2024 were divided into control group(received conventional treatment,n=43)and observation group(received auricular point compression and exercise therapy,n=43)by using the random number table method.The clinical efficacy,blood lipid indexes,blood glucose indexes,oxidative stress indexes and sleep quality were compared between the two groups.Results:The total clinical effective rate,high-density lipoprotein cholesterol(HDL-C),superoxide dismutase(SOD)and Glutathione peroxidase(GSH-Px)of the observation group after treatment were higher than those of the control group,and the fasting blood glucose(FBG),glycated hemoglobin(HbA1c),Homeostatic Model Assessment of Insulin Resistance(HOMA-IR),total cholesterol(TC),low-density lipoprotein cholesterol(LDL-C),triglycerides(TG),reactive oxygen species(ROS),malondialdehyde(MDA)and Pittsburgh sleep Quality Index(PSQI)score were lower than those of the control group(P＜0.05).Conclusion:Auricular point compression and exercise therapy can regulate glycolipid metabolism in T2DM patients with poor glycemic control,improve the degree of oxidative stress and sleep quality.

Objective:To investigate the differences in respiratory work load and oxygenation index improvement between intermittent sighing and progressive lung retraction strategies in patients with acute respiratory distress syndrome(ARDS)related to lung collapse.Methods:Sixty patients with ARDS related to lung collapse admitted from January 2020 to January 2024 were selected and divided into intermittent sighing group(IS group,n=30)and progressive lung re-expansion group(PLR group,n=30)according to different treatment methods.The IS group used an intermittent sighing ventilation mode,while the PLR group adopted a progressive lung re-expansion strategy.The changes in respiratory work load indicators[including work of breathing(WOB),maximum inspiratory pressure(Pmax),transcutaneous oxygen saturation(SpO2)],oxygenation index(PaO2/FiO2),lung compliance(Cst),and mechanical ventilation-related parameters were compared before and after treatment in both groups.Results:After treatment,the respiratory work load was significantly reduced in both groups,with a more pronounced decrease in WOB in the PLR group(P＜0.05);both groups showed significant improvements in oxygenation index,but the degree of improvement was more marked in the PLR group(P＜0.01);lung compliance improved more markedly in the PLR group(P＜0.05);the PLR group had significantly shorter mechanical ventilation time and ICU stay compared to the IS group(P＜0.05).Conclusions:The progressive lung recruitment strategy is better than the intermittent sighing ventilation in improving the respiratory work load,oxygenation index and lung compliance of patients with ARDS related to lung collapse.It can shorten the mechanical ventilation time and ICU hospital stay more effectively,which is worth clinical promotion and application.

Objective To analyze the efficacy and safety of different minimally invasive operations[endoscopic re-trogradebiliary drainage(ERBD)、endoscopic nasobiliary drainage(ENBD)、percutaneous transhepatic cholangial drainage(PTCD)] for choledocholithiasis complicated with acute cholangitis to provide reference for clinical treatment retrospectively. Methods A total of 151 patients with choledocholithiasis complicated with acute cholangitis at Department of Emergency Surgery in our hospital from January 2019 to December 2020 were included and divided into four groups based on the four treatment strategies, including non-surgical treatment. Changes in leukocyte count, bilirubin levels, and liver function before and after treatment, as well as postoperative recovery, complication rates, length of hospital stay, and prognosis were compared among patients who underwent different surgical treatments. Results There were significant improvements in leukocyte count, percentage of neutrophils, and liver function of the patients underwent ENBD or ERBD operation (P<0.05). The total bilirubin and direct bilirubin were significantly reduced after ERBD, ENBD, and PTCD operations (P<0.05). Patients undergoing ERBD, ENBD, or PTCD demonstrated faster recovery times, fewer complications, shorter hospital stays, and lower mortality rates compared to those managed conservatively. Conclusions ERBD and ENBD as minimally invasive therapeutic modalities for the management of choledocholithiasis complicated with acute cholangitis, exhibit remarkable clinical efficacy, coupled with a high degree of safety and reliability. These techniques significantly enhance the long-term minimally invasive cure rate, thereby establishing them as the preferred treatment strategies. Tailored to the patient's specific clinical conditions, such as the severity of infection, stone dimensions, and the use of oral anticoagulant therapy, clinicians can formulate individualized minimally invasive treatment strategies, facilitating the optimal attainment of therapeutic objectives.
