Objective: To investigate the efficacy of magnesium-strontium co-doped hydroxyapatite mineralized collagen (MSHA/Col) in improving the bone repair microenvironment and enhancing bone regeneration capacity, providing a strategy to address the insufficient biomimetic composition and limited bioactivity of traditional hydroxyapatite mineralized collagen (HA/Col) scaffolds. Methods: A high-molecular-weight polyacrylic acid-stabilized amorphous calcium magnesium strontium phosphate precursor (HPAA/ACMSP) was prepared. Its morphology and elemental distribution were characterized by high-resolution transmission electron microscopy (TEM) and energy-dispersive spectroscopy. Recombinant collagen sponge blocks were immersed in the HPAA/ACMSP mineralization solution. Magnesium-strontium co-doped hydroxyapatite was induced to deposit within collagen fibers (experimental group: MSHA/Col; control group: HA/Col). The morphological characteristics of MSHA/Col were observed using scanning electron microscopy (SEM). Its crystal structure and chemical composition were analyzed by X-ray diffraction and Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy, respectively. The mineral phase content was evaluated by thermogravimetric analysis. The scaffold's porosity, ion release, and in vitro degradation performance were also determined. For cytological experiments, CCK-8 assay, live/dead cell staining, alkaline phosphatase staining, alizarin red S staining, RT-qPCR, and western blotting were used to evaluate the effects of the MSHA/Col scaffold on the proliferation, viability, early osteogenic differentiation activity, late mineralization capacity, and gene and protein expression levels of key osteogenic markers [runt-related transcription factor 2 (Runx2), collagen type Ⅰ (Col-Ⅰ), osteopontin (Opn), and osteocalcin (Ocn)] in mouse embryonic osteoblast precursor cells (MC3T3-E1). Results: HPAA/ACMSP appeared as amorphous spherical nanoparticles under TEM, with energy spectrum analysis showing uniform distribution of carbon, oxygen, calcium, phosphorus, magnesium, and strontium elements. SEM results of MSHA/Col indicated successful complete intrafibrillar mineralization. Elemental analysis showed the mass fractions of magnesium and strontium were 0.72% (matching the magnesium content in natural bone) and 2.89%, respectively. X-ray diffraction revealed characteristic peaks of hydroxyapatite crystals (25.86°, 31°-34°). Infrared spectroscopy results showed characteristic absorption peaks for both collagen and hydroxyapatite. Thermogravimetric analysis indicated a mineral phase content of 78.29% in the material. The scaffold porosity was 91.6% ± 1.1%, close to the level of natural bone tissue. Ion release curves demonstrated sustained release behavior for both magnesium and strontium ions. The in vitro degradation rate matched the ingrowth rate of new bone tissue. Cytological experiments showed that MSHA/Col significantly promoted MC3T3-E1 cell proliferation (130% increase in activity at 72 h, P < 0.001). MSHA/Col exhibited excellent efficacy in promoting osteogenic differentiation, significantly upregulating the expression of osteogenesis-related genes and proteins (Runx2, Col-Ⅰ, Opn, Ocn) (P < 0.01). Conclusion The MSHA/Col scaffold achieves dual biomimicry of natural bone in both composition and structure, and effectively promotes osteogenic differentiation at the genetic and protein levels, breaking through the functional limitations of pure hydroxyapatite mineralized collagen. This provides a new strategy for the development of functional bone repair materials

Purpose: Alectinib has been approved for anaplastic lymphoma kinase (ALK)–positive non–small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) at 300 mg twice daily in Japan, lower than global standard of 600 mg twice daily. This study evaluated the clinical relevance of the reduced dose by comparing outcomes between the two doses. Materials and Methods: This study included patients with advanced ALK-positive NSCLC who received alectinib at Samsung Medical Center, Korea. The progression-free survival (PFS), overall survival, cumulative incidence of central nervous system (CNS) progression, and safety profiles were retrospectively reviewed and compared. Results: Among 306 patients, 32 and 274 received alectinib at either 300 or 600 mg twice daily, respectively. The 300 mg group showed a slight but not significant advantage in PFS (hazard ratio [HR], 0.82; 95% confidence interval [CI], 0.44 to 1.51; p=0.51) and overall survival (HR, 0.51; 95% CI, 0.20 to 1.21; p=0.13). Superior outcome with 300 mg was remarkable in patients with lower body weight (≤ 60 kg), but diminished in patients with higher body weights. Patients with baseline brain metastasis in the 300 mg group exhibited a slight increase in incidence of CNS failure (HR, 1.76; 95% CI, 0.53 to 5.8; p=0.36). Although the safety profiles were mostly mild, adverse events were more frequent in the 600 mg group, 50% of which requiring dose reduction. Conclusion Alectinib at 300 mg twice daily seems an acceptable dose in East Asians with ALK-positive NSCLC. Notably, our data favor 300 mg twice daily in patients with lower body weight and no baseline brain metastasis, considering the more tolerable safety profiles and the potential to reduce medical costs.

Objective To investigate the expression and significance of 25-hydroxyvitamin D[25(OH)D],immune cell subsets,and helper T cell(Th)1 and Th2 in patients with unexplained recurrent spontaneous abortion(URSA).Methods A total of 307 URSA patients were enrolled as URSA group,which was further divided into non-maintenance of pregnancy group(n=127)and ma-intenance of pregnancy group(n=180)based on pregnancy maintenance status.Another 307 healthy pregnant women in the same period were selected as control group.The levels of 25(OH)D,immune cell subsets,and Th1/Th2 expression were compared among these groups.Pearson correlation analy-sis was used to explore the correlations of 25(OH)D and immune cell subsets with Th1/Th2 expres-sion in URSA patients.Results Compared with the control group,the URSA group had significantly lower levels of 25(OH)D and interleukin-10(IL-10),and higher levels of CD3+,CD3+CD4+,CD3+CD8+,CD4+/CD8+,CD16+CD56+,CD19+,interleukin-2(IL-2),and tumor necrosis fac-tor-α(TNF-α)(P＜0.001).Compared with the maintenance of pregnancy group,the non-maintenance of pregnancy group had significantly lower levels of 25(OH)D and IL-10,and higher levels of CD3+,CD3+CD4+,CD3+CD8+,CD4+/CD8+,CD16+CD56+,CD19+,IL-2,and TNF-α(P＜0.001).Pearson analysis revealed that 25(OH)D in URSA patients was significantly negatively correlated with IL-2 and TNF-α(P＜0.05),while positively correlated with IL-10(P＜0.05).Immune cell sub-sets,including CD3+,CD3+CD4+,CD3+CD8+,CD4+/CD8+,CD16+CD56+,and CD19+were significantly positively correlated with IL-2 and TNF-α(P＜0.05),while negatively correlated with IL-10 in URSA patients(P＜0.05).Conclusion There are abnormalities in 25(OH)D,im-mune cell subsets,and Th1/Th2 cytokine expression in URSA patients,and these expressions differ in URSA patients with different pregnancy outcomes.The underlying mechanism may be related to the regulation of Th1/Th2 cytokine balance.

Objective:To explore the predictive potential of dual-energy CT (DECT) quantitative parameters in identifying breast cancer molecular subtypes and the expression of the epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) .Methods:A cohort of 97 breast cancer patients, treated between Jun. 2022 and Jun. 2024 were selected. The study compared DECT parameters-such as iodine concentration (IC) , normalized iodine concentration (NIC) , spectral curve slope (λ HU) , and effective atomic number (Z eff) in both arterial and venous phases across different molecular subtypes. A multiclass logistic regression model was employed to assess the parameters' value in predicting molecular subtypes, while a binary logistic regression model was used to evaluate their predictive value for EGFR expression. Results:Multiple Logistic regression analysis showed that after adjusting for confounder age and family history, IC ( OR=1.72, 2.78, 3.05) , NIC ( OR=2.52, 1.94, 2.93) , λ HU ( OR=2.08, 2.54, 3.17) and Z eff ( OR=2.03, 2.30, 2.37) at arterial stage were independently correlated with the molecular subtypes of breast cancer ( P<0.05) . Binary logistic regression analysis, adjusted for tumor size and lymph node metastasis, identified arterial phase IC ( OR=3.45) , NIC ( OR=2.73) , λ HU ( OR=2.59) , and Z eff ( OR=1.76) as independent risk factors for EGFR-positive breast cancer ( P<0.05) . Conclusion:DECT quantitative parameters, particularly arterial phase IC, NIC, λ HU, and Zeff, offer valuable insights into the molecular subtyping of breast cancer and EGFR expression, thereby assisting in the development of personalized treatment strategies.

Objective To analyze the efficacy of autologous tissue repair for rectocele through the perineal approach in treating constipation and fecal incontinence in patients.Methods From January 2021 to November 2022,23 female patients with symptomatic rectal protrusion were treated with perineal autologous tissue repair.Preoperatively and at 12 months postoperatively,the Cleveland Clinic Constipation Score(CCCS),Cleveland Clinic Incontinence Score(CCIS),and Patient Assessment of Constipation Quality of Life(PAC-QOL)questionnaires were used to assess postoperative outcomes and quality of life.Results Among the 23 patients,with a median follow-up time of 12.6 months,CCCS decreased from 17.09±1.68 to 3.96±2.08(P＜0.05);CCIS decreased from 1.52±4.15 to 0.52±1.41(P＞0.05);PAC-QOL:physical discomfort decreased from 13.00±1.51 to 4.74±1.98;psychological discomfort decreased from 20.96±3.27 to 5.74±2.67;concern and anxiety decreased from 26.13±4.37 to 8.78±3.14;satisfaction decreased from 15.39±2.35 to 4.60±1.59(P＜0.05).All patients showed significant improvement in constipation and incontinence symptoms postoperatively,with no serious postoperative complications and a marked improvement in postoperative quality of life.Conclusion Rectocele repair with perineal approach using autologous tissue is an effective and safe method,avoiding potential potential complications associated with grafts.

In this work,a fluorescent probe PIN was synthesized using indole-3-carbohydrazide and pyrenecarboxaldehyde as raw materials.PIN showed weak fluorescence emission in aqueous solution with acetonitrile volume fraction of 70％.However,when Cu2+was added to this aqueous solution of PIN,a new fluorescence emission peak appeared at 495 nm,and the intensity of this peak gradually increased with the increase of concentration of Cu2+,and also caused a significant change in the fluorescence color of the solution.In contrast,the addition of 15 kinds of other common metal ions did not cause such change.The detection limit of PIN for Cu2+was 78.7 nmol/L,which was much lower than the maximum permitting level of Cu2+in drinking water in hygienic standard for drinking water in China.Therefore,PIN was a highly selective and sensitive fluorescence-enhanced probe for Cu2+.Meanwhile,the addition of Cu2+could also cause a new absorption peak at 440 nm in the ultraviolet-visible absorption spectrum of the aqueous solution of PIN,and meanwhile the colorless PIN solution changed into yellow,exhibiting the performance of PIN as a colorimetric probe for Cu2+.By fitting with the Levenberg-Marquardt algorithm equation,the binding ratio of PIN to Cu2+was 2:1,and the binding constant was 3.42×1012 L2/mol2.In addition,the binding mode of PIN with Cu2+was explored by using proton nuclear magnetic resonance(1H NMR)titration experiments and density functional theory simulations.The results showed that the addition of Cu2+could cause the aggregation of PIN molecules to form excimers,thus showing highly selective recognition.Finally,PIN was made into a simple test strip,which could achieve rapid and convenient fluorescence detection of Cu2+in actual water samples.

Body weight abnormalities, including overweight, obesity, and underweight, have become a dual public health challenge in Chinese adults: overweight and obesity lead to a variety of chronic complications, while underweight increases the risks of malnutrition, sarcopenia, and organ dysfunction. To systematically address these issues, multidisciplinary experts in endocrinology, sports science, nutrition, and psychiatry from various regions have held multiple weight management seminars. Based on the latest epidemiological data and clinical evidence, they expanded the guideline to include assessment and intervention strategies for underweight, in addition to the core content of obesity management. This guideline outlines the etiological mechanisms, evaluation methods, and multidimensional management strategies for overweight and obesity, covering key areas such as diagnosis and assessment, medical nutrition therapy, exercise prescription, pharmacological intervention, and psychological support. It is intended to provide a scientific and standardized approach to weight management across the adult population, aiming to curb the rising prevalence of obesity, mitigate complications associated with abnormal body weight, and improve nutritional status and overall quality of life.

Objective:To analyze the burden and trends of noncommunicable chronic disease(NCD) attributable to metabolic factors in China from 1990 to 2021.Methods:Data from the Global Burden of Diseases(GBD) 2021 database were utilized to describe changes in mortality and disability-adjusted life years(DALYs) of NCD in China from 1990 to 2021. Stratified analyses were conducted by age, sex, sociodemographic index(SDI), and related risk factors. Statistical analyses and predictions were conducted using the age-period-cohort model and the Nordpred model.Results:In 2021, the age-standardized mortality rate and age-standardized DALYs rate of NCD attributable to metabolic factors in China were 227.56 per 100 000 and 4 829.39 per 100 000, respectively. Their average annual percentage changes were -0.76%( P<0.001) and -0.77%( P<0.001). Overall, the burden decreased progressively with higher SDI levels. Analysis using the age-period-cohort model indicated reduced birth cohort and period effects for metabolic factor-attributable NCD, while age effects rose significantly. The minimum relative risk( RR) value was observed in the 15-19 age group( RR=0.01), and the maximum RR value occurred in the 95-99 age group( RR=996.86). The overall rising mortality trend indicated that age effects are the predominant driver at present. Projections estimate that by 2046, deaths from metabolic factor-attributable NCD in China will reach 8 189 563, with an age-standardized mortality rate of 236.95 per 100 000. Conclusions:China continues to face a substantial burden of NCD linked to metabolic factors, with older adults, males, and individuals with hypertension, diabetes, and prediabetes identified as key populations requiring targeted interventions.

Objective:To explore the possibility of using a inferior gluteal artery perforator flap (IGAPF) for breast reconstruction in the patient who did not have suitable donor site in back and abdomen.Methods:In November 2024, a 25-year-old unmarried and childless woman with right breast cancer received immediate right breast reconstruction by a right free IGAPF after modified right mastectomy in the Department of Breast and Thyroid Surgery, Second Affiliated Hospital of Hainan Medical University. The locations of perforators were confirmed by both Multi-detector computed tomography angiography (MDCTA) and portable Doppler blood flow detector before surgery. The IGAPF was designed to take the inferior gluteal wrinkle as the lower edge, the axis of the flap was parallel to the inferior gluteal wrinkle, and the width of the flap was estimated where the incision could be directly closed. The size of right IGAPF was 6.0 cm×19.0 cm. Sharp dissection was performed between the sarcolemma and muscle fibres of gluteus, then the perforators were dissected along the direction of muscle fibres of gluteus. The vascular pedicle was kept at about 8.0 cm in length. The diameter of artery was about 2.0 mm and that for the veins was about 1.5 mm. End-to-end anastomoses with the right thoracodorsal artery and vein were successfully carried out. The donor site was directly closed, and it was hidden in the inferior gluteal wrinkle. Postoperative outpatient clinical review was made.Results:Pathological examination reported: an invasive carcinoma of right breast, axillary lymph node metastasis (2/10). The patient recovered well and the flap survived without any complication, i.e. ischemic necrosis, infection and haematoma. The patient was off-bed at 3 days and discharged at 13 days after surgery. At the 40 days of postoperative follow-up, the patient achieved a good recovery and the lower limb activity was not affected by the surgery. The patient was satisfied with the reconstructed breast and donor site recovery. The patient followed with scheduled chemotherapy and subsequent radiotherapy. The volume of reconstructed breast was smaller than the other breast, of which the patient was fully informed before the surgery.Conclusion:A free IGAPF provides an alternative donor sites for achieving a breast reconstruction due to the reliable pedicle vessels and invisible donor scars.
