Objective: To explore the causal link of cumulative ecological risk and future orientation with health risk behaviors among higher vocational college students, so as to provide reference for reducing and preventing health risk behaviors among higher vocational college students. Methods: A longitudinal follow up study was conducted on 612 students using convenience sampling from 2 vocational colleges in Hunan Province. The Cumulative Ecological Risk Scale, Future Orientation Scale, and Health Risk Behavior Scale were used during three follow up visits (T1: September 2022, T2: June 2023, T3: March 2024), and a cross lagged panel model was constructed to examine the longitudinal causal relationship of cumulative ecological risk, future orientation and health risk behaviors. Analysis of longitudinal intermediary effect between variables by Bootstrap. Results: The cumulative ecological risk scores of T1, T2 and T3 among higher vocational college students were (2.94±1.44,2.99±1.63,3.02±1.54), future orientation scores (40.49±4.71,41.51±5.72,41.06±4.35) and health risk behavior scores (3.73±2.01,3.49±2.00,3.23±2.00). The results of repeated measures ANOVA showed that the future orientation score of T2 was higher than that of T1, and the main effect of measurement time was statistically significant ( F=5.09，P＜0.01,η 2=0.02). The health risk behavior score of T1 was higher than that of T2, and the health risk behavior score of T2 was higher than that of T3, and the main effect of measurement time was statistically significant ( F=10.12，P＜0.01,η 2=0.03).The cross lagged model showed good adaptability, with χ 2/df =7.20 ( P <0.01), relative fitting indicators GFI=0.98, CFI=0.99, TLI=0.96, IFI=0.99, NFI =0.99, and absolute fitting indicator RMSEA =0.06. Among them, the T1, T2 cumulative ecological risk showed negatively predictive effects on T2, T3 future orientation ( β =-0.24, -0.47 ), and T1, T2 cumulative ecological risk positively predicted T2, T3 health risk behavior ( β =0.20, 0.24), while T1, T2 future orientation negatively predicted T2, T3 health risk behavior ( β =-0.25, -0.18) ( P ＜0.01). Bootstrap test analysis found that T2 future orientation had a longitudinal mediating effect ( β=0.04, P ＜0.01) on the T1 cumulative ecological risk and T3 health risk behavior. Conclusions The accumulation of ecological risk among higher vocational college students can positively predict health risk behaviors, while future orientation can negatively predict healthrisk behaviors. Moreover, future orientation plays a longitudinal mediating role between accumulated ecological risks and health risk behaviors.

Background::In vitro fertilization (IVF) has emerged as a transformative solution for infertility. However, achieving favorable live-birth outcomes remains challenging. Current clinical IVF practices in IVF involve the collection of heterogeneous embryo data through diverse methods, including static images and temporal videos. However, traditional embryo selection methods, primarily reliant on visual inspection of morphology, exhibit variability and are contingent on the experience of practitioners. Therefore, an automated system that can evaluate heterogeneous embryo data to predict the final outcomes of live births is highly desirable. Methods::We employed artificial intelligence (AI) for embryo morphological grading, blastocyst embryo selection, aneuploidy prediction, and final live-birth outcome prediction. We developed and validated the AI models using multitask learning for embryo morphological assessment, including pronucleus type on day 1 and the number of blastomeres, asymmetry, and fragmentation of blastomeres on day 3, using 19,201 embryo photographs from 8271 patients. A neural network was trained on embryo and clinical metadata to identify good-quality embryos for implantation on day 3 or day 5, and predict live-birth outcomes. Additionally, a 3D convolutional neural network was trained on 418 time-lapse videos of preimplantation genetic testing (PGT)-based ploidy outcomes for the prediction of aneuploidy and consequent live-birth outcomes.Results::These two approaches enabled us to automatically assess the implantation potential. By combining embryo and maternal metrics in an ensemble AI model, we evaluated live-birth outcomes in a prospective cohort that achieved higher accuracy than experienced embryologists (46.1% vs. 30.7% on day 3, 55.0% vs. 40.7% on day 5). Our results demonstrate the potential for AI-based selection of embryos based on characteristics beyond the observational abilities of human clinicians (area under the curve: 0.769, 95% confidence interval: 0.709–0.820). These findings could potentially provide a noninvasive, high-throughput, and low-cost screening tool to facilitate embryo selection and achieve better outcomes. Conclusions::Our study underscores the AI model’s ability to provide interpretable evidence for clinicians in assisted reproduction, highlighting its potential as a noninvasive, efficient, and cost-effective tool for improved embryo selection and enhanced IVF outcomes. The convergence of cutting-edge technology and reproductive medicine has opened new avenues for addressing infertility challenges and optimizing IVF success rates.

Objective To evaluate the clinical efficacy and safety of anatomical repair and anatomical reconstruction through Meta-analysis.Methods Systematically search PubMed,Embase,Wanfang database,China National Knowledge Infrastructure and other databases were used to obtain the relevant literature in the treatment of chronic lateral instability of the ankle joint with anatomical repair and reconstruction from the establishment of each database to December 2022,and Revman 5.4 and R 4.2 software were used for Meta-analysis.Results Eight articles were finally included in this paper.All were randomized controlled trials.The results of Meta-analysis showed that:there were statistically significant differences between anatomical repair and anatomical reconstruction in the anterior talar translation (MD=0.54,95％CI:0.27-0.81,P<0.01),talus tilt angle (MD=0.36,95％CI:0.07-0.66,P=0.02),and American Orthopaedic Foot & Ankle Society scale (MD=-4.79,95％CI:-6.58--3.01,P<0.01),but there was no statistically significant difference in complications (RR=1.13,95％CI:0.32-3.97,P=0.85).Conclusion Anatomical reconstruction is superior to anatomical repair in clinical efficacy,while the risk of complications is comparable between two.

Objective To investigate the changes of macular microcirculation and aqueous humor cytokine expression in patients with diabetic macular edema(DME)after anti-vascular endothelial growth factor(VEGF)treatment,and analyze the relationship with efficacy.Methods A total of 62 patients(91 eyes)with DME who were treated in the First Hospital of Nanchang from October 2021 to August 2023 were selected and treated with intravitreal injection of conbercept.According to the reduction of central macular thickness(CMT),they were divided into efficacy significant group(CMT reduction≥100μm,59 eyes)and non-efficacy significant group(CMT reduction＜100μm or increase,32 eyes).The changes of CMT,vessel density(VD)of superficial capillary plexus(SCP),fovea avascular area(FAZ),VEGF,interleuki(IL)-6,IL-8,and IL-10 after anti-VEGF treatment were analyzed.Receiver operating characteristic(ROC)curve was used to evaluate the predictive value of each index.Results Before treatment,the levels of VEGF and IL-10 in aqueous humor in efficacy significant group were significantly higher than those in non-efficacy significant group,and the level of IL-8 was significantly lower than that in non-efficacy significant group(P＜0.05).After treatment,levels of VEGF,IL-6,IL-8 and IL-10 in aqueous humor in both groups were significantly lower than before treatment(P＜0.05).The levels of VEGF,IL-6 and IL-8 in aqueous humor in efficacy significant group were significantly lower than those in non-efficacy significant group,and the level of IL-10 was significantly higher than that in non-efficacy significant group(P＜0.05).Before and after anti-VEGF treatment,there were no significant changes in FAZ area and SCP-VD in both groups(P＞0.05).Correlation analysis showed that VEGF(r=0.571,P＜0.001)and IL-10(r=0.382,P=0.008)in aqueous humor at baseline were positively correlated with CMT reduction,IL-8 was negatively correlated with CMT reduction(r=-0.689,P＜0.001).IL-6,FAZ area and SCP-VD were not correlated with CMT reduction(P＞0.05).Cytokine levels were not correlated with FAZ area and SCP-VD(P＞0.05).ROC curve results showed that area under the curve of IL-8,VEGF and IL-10 at baseline predicting anti-VEGF efficacy were 0.825,0.813 and 0.676,respectively.Conclusion The levels of VEGF,IL-8,and IL-10 in aqueous humor at baseline in DME patients were correlated with anti-VEGF efficacy and could predict the efficacy of anti-VEGF.

Background and purpose:Chimeric antigen receptor T(CAR-T)cell therapy has shown remarkable efficacy in treating hematological and lymphatic system tumors,but its effectiveness in solid tumors is relatively poor,which is partly attributed to target selection.For Ewing sarcoma(ES),CD99 can be a potential target for CAR-T cells.However,due to T cells'endogenous expression of CD99 protein,CAR-T cells targeting CD99 face limitations in their expansion capacity in vitro.This study aimed to identify the optimal conditions for preparing CD99 CAR-T cells by incorporating CD99 knockdown short hairpin RNA(shRNA),optimizing the multiplicity of infection(MOI)for lentiviral transduction,and screening for the best culture medium and container for CAR-T cell expansion.Methods:shRNA sequences were screened to enhance the expansion capacity of CD99 CAR-T cells.Different MOI,culture media,and containers were used to assess CAR-T cell transduction efficiency,cell viability,proliferation capacity,specific killing ability,and interferon-γ(IFN-γ)release levels under various conditions,in order to identify the optimal cell preparation conditions.Results:The expansion level of KO-CD99 CAR-T cells obtained through shRNA knockdown was significantly higher than that of CD99 CAR-T cells[(16.40±0.40)vs(6.33±1.53),P<0.01].The optimal expansion effect was observed when the transduction MOI was between 0.25 and 1.0,and OptiVitro was used as the culture medium.CAR-T cells cultured in ventilated flasks exhibited significantly higher expansion rates compared to cells cultured in bags[MOI=0.25:(50.23±3.32)vs(13.02±4.82);MOI=0.50:(49.96±0.83)vs(18.25±2.88);MOI=1.00:(48.27±5.08)vs(13.16±6.26);P<0.01],with better cell phenotype and higher specific killing ability.Conclusion:KO-CD99 CAR-T cells obtained through shRNA technology can achieve stable expansion.Based on the optimization of expansion conditions,KO-CD99 CAR-T cells exhibit superior expansion capacity and a higher proportion of memory T cells when the MOI is between 0.25 and 1.00,OptiVitro is used as the culture medium,and ventilated flasks are used as the culture container.These findings lay a solid foundation for further clinical trials of CD99 CAR-T cell therapy for ES.

Objective To observe the value of 5.0T MR susceptibility weighted imaging(SWI)for displaying cerebral small veins and detecting cerebral microbleeds(CMB).Methods Head MR examinations were prospectively performed using both 3.0T and 5.0T MR scanner in 30 stroke patients suspected caused by cerebral small vessel disease.The image quality,effect of displaying cerebral small veins and detecting CMB were compared between 3.0T and 5.0T SWI.Results The image quality scores,signal-to-noise ratios,contrast-to-noise ratios,scores of displaying deep cerebral veins and subcortical veins,the counts of detecting CMB and iron deposition on cortical surface of 5.0T SWI were all higher than those of 3.0T SWI(all P＜0.05).High consistency of CMB positions was found between 3.0T and 5.0T SWI(Kappa=1.0).Conclusion The effect of 5.0T MR SWI for displaying cerebral small veins and detecting cerebral microbleeds were better than 3.0T MR SWI,which could be used to assess stroke caused by cerebral small vascular disease.

Objective To evaluate the effect of irregular follow-up during normalized prevention and control of novel coronavirus pneumonia (COVID-19) epidemic on BK virus (BKV) reactivation and clinical prognosis of kidney transplant recipients. Methods Clinical data of 363 kidney transplant recipients were retrospectively analyzed, and they were divided into the pre-epidemic follow-up group and during-epidemic follow-up group according to the follow-up time. All patients were followed up for 1 year. The follow-up interval was compared between two groups. The infection of BKV and the correlation between the infection process of BKV and renal graft function were analyzed in two groups. Results A total of 1 790 preson-times were followed up before COVID-19 epidemic and 2 680 during COVID-19 epidemic. Compared with the during-epidemic follow-up group, the follow-up intervals within 3, 3-6 and 7-12 months after kidney transplantation were shorter in the pre-epidemic follow-up group, and the differences were statistically significant (all P<0.05). Within 1 year after kidney transplantation, 35 cases（32%） were diagnosed with BKV viruria, 3 cases（3%） of BKV viremia and 1 case（1%） of BKV-associated nephropathy (BKVAN) in the pre-epidemic follow-up group, and 53（25%）, 3（1%） and 1（1%） in the during-epidemic follow-up group, with no statistical significance (all P>0.05). In the pre-epidemic follow-up group, the time for the initial diagnosis of BKV viruria was longer and the viral load of the first urinary BKV reactivation was smaller than those in the during-epidemic follow-up group, with statistical significance (both P<0.05). The load of the first urinary BKV reactivation was positively correlated with the peak load of urinary BKV, and the differences between the baseline and serum creatinine levels at 1 and 3 months after BKV reactivation (all P<0.05). Conclusions Irregular follow-up after kidney transplantation may lead to early BKV reactivation and higher detection value of the first viral load of urinary BKV, delay diagnosis and interventions, and lead to poor prognosis. It is urgent to establish a remote follow-up system to meet the follow-up requirements of kidney transplant recipients when public health incidents occur.

Objective To understand the molecular epidemiological characteristics of Norovirus outbreaks and the genome evolution of Norovirus epidemic strains in Hainan Province from 2020 to 2022.Methods The information and samples have been collected from the norovirus outbreaks from 2020 to 2022.Norovirus was detected by using the real-time PCR in these samples,then the detected sequences were amplified the analyzed.The Norovirus se-quences of 8 strains had been amplified and analyzed.Results From 2020 to 2022,39 gastroenteritis outbreaks were reported,and 25 outbreaks caused by Norovirus which mainly occurred in childcare institutions and schools(20/25,80％).The Norovirus outbreaks were mainly concentrated in counties around Haikou(northeast),which including Ding'an(5 cases),Wenchang(4 cases),Chengmai(4 cases),and Lingao(3 cases);following by western regions which included Baisha(2 cases),Ledong(2 cases),and Dongfang(3 cases).1 case was in Wanning in the southeast.Among individuals aged 2-17,the positive proportion of Norovirus in males was higher than that in females.Among individuals aged over 55,the proportion of Norovirus positive in females was higher than that in males.The gender of positive samples among individuals aged 18-40 was related to their profession.According to RT-PCR typing and sequencing,GⅡ group Norovirus were classified in13 outbreaks.There were 4 genotypes detected.GⅡ.2[P1 6]was the main epidemic strain with 60％(9/13),and the other three genotypes were GⅡ.4 Sydney[P31](15.4％,2/13)GⅡ.4 Sydney[P16](7.7％,1/13)and GⅡ.3[P12](7.7％,1/13).Further genic analysis of 8 Norovirus strains showed that all of them were still in the same branch as the previ-ous strain,and all exhibited a certain amount of amino acid variation.Conclusion Norovirus is the main pathogen of gastroenteritis outbreaks in Hainan province,and the main epidemic strain is GⅡ.2[P16].It is necessary to continue to strengthen the monitoring that provides scientific evidence for the prevention and control of norovirus out-breaks in Hainan region.

Objective To investigate the feasibility and clinical experience of kidney transplantation from donors with Marfan syndrome (MFS). Methods Clinical data of 2 recipients undergoing kidney transplantation from the same MFS patient were retrospectively analyzed and literature review of 2 cases was conducted. Characteristics and clinical diagnosis and treatment of kidney transplantation from MFS patients were summarized. Results The Remuzzi scores of the left and right donor kidneys of the MFS patient during time-zero biopsy were 1 and 2. No significant difference was observed in the renal arteriole wall compared with other donors of brain death and cardiac death. Two recipients who received kidney transplantation from the MFS patient suffered from postoperative delayed graft function. After short-term hemodialysis, the graft function of the recipients received the left and right kidney began to gradually recover at postoperative 10 d and 20 d. After discharge, serum creatinine level of the recipient received the left kidney was ranged from 80 to 90 μmol/L, whereas that of the recipient received the right kidney kept declining, and the lowest serum creatinine level was 232 μmol/L before the submission date (at postoperative 43 d). Through literature review, two cases successfully undergoing kidney transplantation from the same MFS donor were reported. Both two recipients experienced delayed graft function, and then renal function was restored to normal. Until the publication date, 1 recipient has survived for 6 years, and the other recipient died of de novo cerebrovascular disease at postoperative 2 years. Conclusions MFS patients may serve as an acceptable source of kidney donors. However, the willingness and general conditions of the recipients should be carefully evaluated before kidney transplantation. Intraoperatively, potential risk of tear of renal arterial media should be properly treated. Extensive attention should be paid to the incidence of postoperative complications.

BACKGROUND:Knee osteoarthritis is a common disease in middle-aged and elderly people.It is a kind of disease that seriously affects the quality of life of patients and even has the risk of disability.Therefore,the pathogenesis and treatment of knee osteoarthritis have become the focus of research.In Chinese medicine,knee osteoarthritis is often treated as"biness,"which is closely related to"biness"caused by blood stasis and blood vessels blocking collaterals in the theory of"blood stasis"in traditional Chinese medicine.Iron overload is a kind of pathological state caused by iron metabolism disorder,which highly coincides with the pathogenic characteristics and clinical manifestations of the"blood stasis"theory of traditional Chinese medicine,and is a risk factor that promotes the development of knee osteoarthritis. OBJECTIVE:Based on the"blood stasis"theory,to summarize the effects of iron overload on cartilage metabolism and subchondral bone reconstruction,to lay a new theoretical foundation for the treatment of knee osteoarthritis with traditional Chinese medicine,and to explore the therapeutic effect of traditional Chinese medicine for promoting blood circulation after interfering with bone tissue. METHODS:CNKI,WanFang database,PubMed and Web of Science databases were searched for relevant literature.The Chinese search terms were"ferroptosis,iron,iron overload,osteoarthritis,blood stasis"and the English search terms were"ferroptosis,iron,iron overload,osteoarthritis,TCM."In the end,76 articles were included for further review. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:First of all,we explored the potential of the"blood stasis"theory in treating knee osteoarthritis,and found that"blood stasis"is a crucial part in the progress of knee osteoarthritis,indicating that the"blood stasis"theory is the key to the treatment of knee osteoarthritis in traditional Chinese medicine.Secondly,"blood stasis"and iron overload have a high degree of similarity in pathogenic factors,clinical manifestations,and pathogenic characteristics,suggesting the possibility of"blood stasis"theory in treating iron overload.This finding reminds us that iron overload may be an important mechanistic basis for the"blood stasis"theory in the treatment of knee osteoarthritis.The extracts of blood-activating drugs can relieve iron overload and treat knee osteoarthritis,but the specific mechanism is still unclear.Therefore,we believe that the relationship between"blood stasis"theory and iron overload and related mechanisms are important research directions for knee osteoarthritis in the future.The related mechanism of"blood stasis"theory to alleviate iron overload and then treat knee osteoarthritis also provides a theoretical basis for the modernization of traditional Chinese medicine,such as the development of new drugs and innovative usage,and has certain guiding significance for clinical practice.
