Objective:To analyze the predictive value of the prognostic nutritional index combined with inflammatory indicators for clinical outcomes in patients with ischemic stroke, providing a basis for targeted therapeutic interventions and nursing care for patients at potential risk of poor outcomes.Methods:This retrospective cohort study recruited 424 ischemic stroke patients admitted to the Stroke Center of the First Hospital of Jilin University from June 2021 to May 2024 by the convenience sampling method. Collect the general demographic data, routine laboratory examination results within 24 hours of admission, as well as the National Institutes of Health Stroke Scale (NIHSS) scores at admission and discharge of the patients. Based on 3-month functional outcomes, patients were divided into a favorable prognosis group and a poor prognosis group. Univariate analysis, least absolute shrinkage and selection operator regression, and binary Logistic regression were employed to screen predictive variables and develop a nomogram model. Internal validation was performed using the Bootstrap method. The receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve, calibration curve, and decision curve were drew to evaluate the predictive performance of the model.Results:The favorable prognosis group comprised 256 patients, including 57 females and 199 males, with an age of 61(54, 68) years. The poor prognosis group included 168 patients, with 55 females and 113 males, and an age of 66(58, 72) years. Binary Logistic regression identified age, sex, hyperlipidemia, NIHSS score at discharge, prognostic nutritional index, systemic inflammatory response index, and systemic immune-inflammation index as independent predictors of prognosis in ischemic stroke patients ( χ2 values were 4.52-56.18, all P<0.05). The prediction model demonstrated the area under the curve of ROC of 0.806 (95% CI 0.764-0.849), with an optimal cutoff value of 0.406, achieving specificity of 78% and sensitivity of 68%. The Hosmer-Lemeshow test yielded a non-significant P>0.05, and the calibration curve showed good agreement between predicted and observed outcomes, with a mean absolute error of 0.012. Decision curve analysis confirmed the clinical utility of the model across a wide range of threshold probabilities. Conclusions:The integrated prognostic model combining the prognostic nutritional index and inflammatory indicators demonstrated favorable discriminative ability, robust calibration, and substantial clinical utility. This risk stratification tool shows high applicability for predicting ischemic stroke outcomes, facilitating early identification of high-risk patients with poor prognosis and guiding personalized intervention strategies.

Objective:To investigate the multimorbidity of myopia and obesity, as well as myopia and malnutrition, among children and adolescents aged 7-18 in Guangdong Province and analyze their epidemiological characteristics and related factors.Methods:A stratified random cluster sampling method was used to select 274 939 children and adolescents aged 7-18 from 21 cities in Guangdong Province in 2023. Physical examination information such as height, weight, distance vision, and diopter, as well as questionnaire survey information on dietary behavior, physical activity, screen behavior, sleep time, etc., were collected to analyze the current status and trends of multimorbidity between myopia and obesity, myopia and malnutrition. The multivariate logistic regression model was used to analyze the related factors of multimorbidity.Results:The multimorbidity rates of myopia and obesity, myopia and malnutrition in children and adolescents aged 7-18 in Guangdong Province in 2023 were 4.43% and 6.40%, respectively. The multimorbidity rates for males were 5.44% and 6.88%, respectively, which were higher than those for females, about 3.31% and 5.88% (both P<0.001). The multimorbidity rates of urban students were 5.03% and 6.73%, respectively, which were higher than those of county students at 4.03% and 6.18% (both P<0.001). The multimorbidity rates of myopia and obesity, myopia and malnutrition increased with the increase of academic stage (all P<0.001). The multimorbidity rates of myopia and obesity, as well as myopia and malnutrition, fluctuated with age, with the first decrease occurring at the age of 12. The multivariate logistic regression analysis showed that compared to children and adolescents aged 7-18 who had daily after-school tutoring <2 hours, daily screen time <2 hours, did not consume sugary drinks every day, sleep time that could meet health requirements daily, and exercised≥60 minutes of moderate-to vigorous-physical activity ≥60 minutes for at least 3 days per week, those who had daily after-school tutoring ≥2 hours ( OR=1.18, 95% CI: 1.11-1.26), daily screen time ≥2 hours ( OR=1.09, 95% CI: 1.02-1.16), consumed sugary drinks every day ( OR=1.20, 95% CI: 1.11-1.30), daily sleep time that could not meet the health requirements ( OR=1.16, 95% CI: 1.09-1.23), and no exercise per week ( OR=1.09, 95% CI: 1.01-1.18) had a higher risk of multimorbidity of myopia and obesity. Compared to children and adolescents who exercised≥60 minutes of moderate-to vigorous-physical activity ≥60 minutes for at least 3 days per week, those who exercised <3 days per week ( OR=1.20, 95% CI: 1.17-1.34) had a higher risk of multimorbidity of myopia and malnutrition. Conclusion:The multimorbidity rates of myopia and obesity, as well as myopia and malnutrition, in children and adolescents aged 7-18 in Guangdong Province are relatively low and fluctuate with age. Physical activity, screen time, consumption of sugary drinks, and sleep time may be associated with these multimorbidities.

Objective:Effects of Qingsui Xiaoyan Decoction on osteoclast differentiation of RAW264.7 cells.Methods:Receptor activator of nuclear factor kappa B ligand (RANKL) was used to induce differentiation of RAW264.7 cells into osteoclasts. CCK-8 method was used to screen experimental drug concentrations and analyze the cytotoxicity of drug intervention on RAW264.7 cells. TRAP staining method was used to quantitatively detect the effects of Qingsui Xiaoyan Decoction on osteoclast differentiation ability. RT-PCR technology was used to detect the mRNA expressions of osteoclast differentiation genes TRAP, MMP-9, CK, CTR. Western blot was used to detect osteoclast-related protein expressions of NF-κBP65, IκB-αTRAP, and TRAP.Results:After 72 hours of intervention, 0.800, 4.000, 20.000, and 100.000 mg/ml of Qingsui Xiaoyan Decoction could inhibit cell proliferation ( P<0.05). Compared with the model group, the number of TRAP-positive cells decreased ( P<0.05) in the 5, 20, 80, and 160 μg/ml Qingsui Xiaoyan Decoction groups. Additionally, the mRNA levels of TRAP, MMP-9, CK, and CTR decreased ( P<0.05), the expression of NF-κB p65 and TRAP proteins decreased ( P<0.05), and the expression of IκB-α protein increased ( P<0.05). Conclusions:Qingsui Xiaoyan Decoction can inhibit the expressions of TRAP, MMP-9, CK, CTR genes and TRAP protein, reduce the degradation of I κ B - α protein by inhibiting the NF - κ B signaling pathway, inhibit the expression of NF - κ B p65 protein, and thus inhibit the differentiation of RAW264.7 into osteoclasts.
