Objective To investigate muscle mass reduction and the effect of exercise training intervention in non-obese patients with type 2 diabetes (T2DM). Methods A total of 324 non-obese patients with T2DM admitted to the First Affiliated Hospital of Xinjiang Medical University were enrolled from February 2023 to February 2025. Dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry was adopted to detect and analyze the data of appendicular skeletal muscle index (ASMI). Non-obese T2DM patients were classified into an observation group (n=162, receive sports training intervention) and a control group (n=162, receiving routine exercise intervention) by adopting random number grouping criteria. Both groups were intervened for 3 months. The muscle mass indicators [ASMI, body mass index (BMI), and body fat rate], exercise ability [6-minute walking distance (6MWD), grip strength, and one-leg standing time], metabolic indicators [fasting plasma glucose (FPG), glycosylated hemoglobin (HbA1c), and homeostasis model assessment insulin resistance index (HOMA-IR)], and quality of life [Diabetes Quality of Life Scale (DQOL)] were compared between the two groups to evaluate the effectiveness of sports training intervention. Results A total of 324 non-obese T2DM patients were enrolled, including 123 cases with reduced muscle mass (37.96%). There were no significant differences in the baseline data and the proportion of patients with muscle mass reduction between the two groups before intervention (P>0.05). After intervention, the ASMI, 6MWD, grip strength, and one-leg standing time in the observation group were higher or longer than those of the control group (P<0.05), while the body fat rate, FPG, HbA1c, HOMA-IR and DQOL scores were lower than those of the control group (P<0.05). Conclusion The incidence of muscle mass reduction is relatively high among non-obese T2DM patients, and exercise training intervention has significant effects on improving muscle mass, metabolic status, exercise capacity and quality of life in non-obese T2DM patients.

The oocyte， as the origin of life， provides half the chromosomes to the embryo and supplies the proteins， substrates， energy， and other support necessary for embryonic development. It is the decisive factor determining the embryo's developmental potential. Infertility caused by reproductive endocrine diseases targets the oocyte as the final target cell. Improving oocyte quality represents a key and difficult point in the field of modern reproductive medicine. The decline of oocyte quality is related to meiosis abnormalities， DNA damage， mitochondrial dysfunction， oxidative stress， and other mechanisms. For oocyte quality problems， there is no unified international guideline to recommend drugs. Because the drug intervention research on oocytes involves strict clinical ethical restrictions， the current relevant research only stays in the animal and in vitro experimental stage and has not yet been applied to the clinic. Traditional Chinese medicine compound formula has a multi-target and multi-pathway regulation mechanism and is widely used in clinics. More and more research began to pay attention to the potential mechanism of traditional Chinese medicine compound formulas in improving oocyte quality. Traditional Chinese medicine compound formula has the advantages of multi-target and multi-channel synergy as well as better safety， individualization， and conformity to clinical ethics in improving oocyte quality. This article systematically reviewed the research progress on traditional Chinese medicine compound formula interventions for oocyte quality， aiming to summarize existing findings and provide recommendations to improve oocyte quality and optimize the clinical diagnosis and treatment of female infertility within traditional Chinese medicine.

Objective:To construct patient-derived xenograft (PDX) models from head and neck squamous cell carcinoma (HNSCC) patients, to explore the effect of immune reconstitution timing on the PDX modeling and immune microenvironment in humanized immune system mice (huHSC-NCG-hIL15), and to provide a reliable animal model for research on the mechanisms of head and neck squamous carcinoma and for studies on immune therapy drug interventions.Methods:This study enrolled 28 HNSCC patients (25 laryngeal carcinomas, 3 hypopharyngeal carcinomas). PDX models were established in Balb/c nude (nu) mice, NSG mice, and humanized immune system-reconstituted huHSC-NCG-hIL15 mice. Fresh HNSCC samples were transplanted into Balb/c nu and NSG mice to generate PDX models, with subsequent analysis of success-associated factors. One successfully established PDX tumor was subsequently implanted into humanized immune system-reconstituted huHSC-NCG-hIL15 mice. Tumor transplantation was performed at distinct immune reconstruction timepoints (2 vs. 7 weeks post-reconstitution), and tumor growth patterns were monitored. Flow cytometry and multiplex immunohistochemical staining were utilized to characterize immunological profiles in peripheral lymphoid organs and tumor microenvironments. Hematoxylin-eosin (HE) staining was employed to assess histomorphological concordance between primary patient tumors and PDX model tissues. Results:HNSCC PDX models were successfully established. NSG mice exhibited a higher and more stable tumor take rate compared to Balb/c nu mice (pilot study: 4/10 vs. 3/10 cases; mean take rate 60%-80% vs. 20%-60 %). The PDX success rate in NSG mice was 46.4% (13/28). In the huHSC-NCG-hIL15 mice model with immune reconstitution at 7 weeks, tumors grew significantly faster, and the PDX modeling process was shorter (617 mm3 at day 70 in 7-week cohort vs.280 mm3 in 2-week cohort). Flow cytometry analysis of the immune microenvironment showed that at 7 weeks of immune reconstitution, the proportions of B cells in the spleen and tumor tissues(2-week vs. 7-week: spleen 16.2% vs. 61.7%, tumor 26.0% vs. 38.8%) and myeloid cells in the spleen (2-week vs. 7-week: spleen 47.2% vs. 88.1 %) were significantly higher, while mice at 2 weeks post-reconstitution showed a higher proportion of T cells (2-week vs. 7-week: spleen 13.2% vs. 9.3%, tumor 4.8% vs. 2.5%). HE results demonstrated that the tumor tissues in PDX models maintained a high degree of morphological similarity to the primary tumors in both NSG and huHSC-NCG-hIL15 mouse models. Conclusion:The HNSCC PDX modeling protocol demonstrates operational feasibility and high reproducibility, establishing this model as a robust platform for mechanistic and immunotherapeutic studies.

Objective To evaluate answers to typical clinical questions related to neuro-ophthalmology generated by Artificial Intelligence(AI)Large Language Models(LLM)and to explore the performance of neuro-ophthalmology-related questions on LLM in a multidimensional manner using objective and expert assessment.Methods Multicenter,random-ized,cross-sectional pilot study.Thirty typical questions related to neuro-ophthalmology were selected based on four per-spectives:definition,etiology,clinical manifestations and signs,and treatment and prognosis,and were analyzed quantita-tively using Deepseek,Wenxin Yiyin 4.0,Doubao,and Kimi 1.5,which are four open-source LLMs in China,and quantita-tively analyzed with objective assessment;and quantitatively rated by three ophthalmologists using expert assessment for 120 answer texts.Three ophthalmology experts quantitatively scored the 120 answer texts.Three ophthalmologists quantita-tively scored the 120 answer texts.Level 3,5,and 4 Likert scales were developed according to the completeness,accura-cy,professionalism,relevance,and criticality of the question texts,respectively.The best-performing LLM was selected,and its performance was observed across the four types of questions.Additionally,three other experts assessed whether the best-performing one could be evaluated as a substitute for real-world doctor-patient communication.Results In the objective Chinese text reading difficulty analysis,the differences in total word count among the four LLMs were statistically significant(all P＜0.001).Of the four LLMs,Kimi 1.5 performed the best,with frequencies of 61％,29％,and 41％for the highest scores in completeness(3),accuracy and professionalism(5),and relevance and usefulness(4),respective-ly.Kimi 1.5 performed more consistently on the questions on the four areas of neuro-ophthalmologic disorders:definition,etiology,clinical manifestations and signs,treatment,and prognosis,with no between-group differences(P＞0.05).Con-clusion Chinese language LLMs have great potential in the clinical application of neuro-ophthalmology.Kimi 1.5 outper-forms other LLMs in terms of completeness,accuracy,professionalism,relevance,and usefulness,but it still cannot re-place real-world doctor-patient communication.There is a need to explore new diagnostic and therapeutic model of AI+physician in the future.

Objective To investigate the mechanism of Astragali Complanati Semen in the prevention and treatment of hyperlipidemia;To provide theoretical basis for its clinical application.Methods The active components of Astragali Complanati Semen were retrieved and screened through TCMSP,TCMID and TDT databases to obtain the action targets of the active components.Hyperlipidemia targets were obtained through GeneCards,DisGeNET,and TTD databases,and the drug active component targets were intersected with hyperlipidemia targets.Cytoscape 3.9.1 software and STRING database were used to construct active component-target network and protein-protein interaction network,screening for major active components and core targets.GO and KEGG pathway enrichment analysis was performed using the DAVID database,and the CB-Dock platform was used for molecular docking.HepG2 cells were induced to construct a high-fat cell model using oleic acid and palmitic acid,and intervened with Astragali Complanati Semen freeze-dried powder solution.The mRNA expression of the core target was detected by RT-qPCR.Results A total of 10 active components of Astragali Complanati Semen and 67 potential action targets of hyperlipidemia were identified,involving signaling pathways such as AGE-RAGE,lipid metabolism,HIF-1,etc.Experimental results showed that intervention with Astragali Complanati Semen could reduce lipid accumulation in the high-lipid cell model,with an optimal intervention concentration of 500 μg/mL;RT-qPCR revealed significant down-regulation of TNFα,IL6,AKT1,PPARG,and other genes after intervention with Astragali Complanati Semen.Conclusion Astragali Complanati Semen exerts lipid-regulating effects through multiple targets and pathways,providing a basis for its application in the prevention and treatment of hyperlipidemia.

Objective To predict the pregnancy probability of patients and provide clinical guidance,the factors that affect the pregnancy outcome of patients with endometriosis(EM)after operation by machine learning were explored.Methods The clinical data of 167 EM patients after conservative surgery were analyzed retrospectively.Boruta algorithm was used to screen the features with high ranking,and four machine learning models,namely random forest,decision tree,support vector machine(SVM)classifier and extreme gradient lifting(XGBoost)were constructed.The performance of the model is evaluated based on four indicators:accuracy,recall,accuracy and area under curve(AUC)of receiver operating characteristic.Shapley additive interpretation(SHAP)was used to visualize the contribution of each variable to the pregnancy outcome and the positive and negative directions.Results Age,body mass index(BMI),postoperative CA125,preoperative CA125,the course of opportune capsule,the course of dysmenorrhea,the score of dysmenorrhea symptoms,the score of pelvic positive signs,the score of TCM symptoms and menstrual cycle were the important characteristics in the top ranking.The decision tree model(accuracy:0.66,accuracy:0.63,recall:0.62,AUC:0.67,F1:0.60)had the best average classification performance.Based on the results of SHAP analysis,age,BMI index,postoperative CA125 level and Traditional Chinese medicine syndrome score had significant effects on the outcome.The higher the value,the lower the postoperative pregnancy rate.Conclusion Age,BMI,postoperative CA125 level and traditional Chinese medicine syndrome score of patients with endometriosis after combined drug therapy are the main evaluation indexes that affect the pregnancy outcome of patients with endometriosis after combined drug therapy.When the values of these four characteristics are high,patients are not advised to conceive naturally,and appropriate assisted reproductive technology should be selected as soon as possible.

Presbyopia is a physiological insufficiency of ocular accommodation caused by aging.With the aging of the population and the increasing demand for near vision,the visual disorders caused by presbyopia are becoming increasingly prominent.Currently,spectacles are still one of the primary methods for correcting presbyopia.However,presbyopic spectacle lenses present different design characteristics,and the demands of the presbyopic population for visual correction vary among individuals.Therefore,there are increasingly higher technical requirements for the dispensing of these lenses.To standardize the dispensing process of presbyopic spectacles,improve the dispensing quality,and ensure the effective-ness and comfort of spectacles,dozens of ophthalmologists in China have reached the final consensus through data review,content preparation,communication and discussion,revision,review,and finalization,thus providing reference and guid-ance for ophthalmologists and technicians.

Immunotherapy for cancer,as an emerging treatment modality,has made significant strides in recent years and has become a crucial therapeutic approach following surgery,radiotherapy,chemotherapy,and targeted therapy.In particular,the clinical utilization of immune checkpoint inhibitors(ICIs)has not only enhanced the survival rates of patients with refractory or recurrent tumors but has also significantly optimized the overall strategy for cancer treatment.However,as the population undergoing cancer immunotherapy continues to grow,this expansion not only yields clinical benefits but also precipitates a range of specific adverse reactions known as immune-related adverse events(irAEs).Pleural effusion is a common and severe complication in cancer patients,significantly affecting both their quality of life and treatment outcomes.Typically,tumor-related pleural effusion is often due to pleural metastasis,with malignant pleural effusion(MPE)characterized by rapid growth,being difficult to control,and tendency for recurrence.With the approval of new drugs and the expansion of indications for existing medications,the number of cancer patients receiving ICIs treatment is increasing,bringing ICIs-related pleural effusion into focus.While ICIs treatment-related pleural effusion is relatively rare in clinical practice,it is closely linked to treatment choices of patients and prognosis.Unlike MPE,the pathogenesis of ICIs treatment-related pleural effusion is more complex,not only involving non-specific immune activation leading to autoimmune inflammatory reactions but also potentially related to nodular pleural granulomatous reactions,eosinophilic chronic pleurisy,and tumor-infiltrating lymphocytes.In terms of diagnosis,ICIs treatment-related pleural effusion is typically diagnosed through exclusion,requiring the exclusion of other causes such as tumor progression,radiotherapy,and chemotherapy-induced pleural effusion,adding complexity and difficulty to the diagnostic process.Treatment for ICIs treatment-related pleural effusion often involves glucocorticoids,tocilizumab,or infliximab,aiming to alleviate symptoms and improve prognosis by suppressing excessive immune reactions.Preventing the occurrence of ICIs treatment-related pleural effusion is equally crucial,necessitating comprehensive patient assessment before ICIs administration and continuous monitoring during treatment to promptly detect and manage potential adverse reactions.Through this comprehensive management approach,the impact of ICIs treatment-related pleural effusion on patient quality of life and treatment outcomes can be minimized,optimizing overall treatment results.This review aimed to explore the pathogenesis,histological features,clinical manifestations,diagnostic methods and treatment strategies of ICIs treatment-related pleural effusion,and delve into the characteristics of ICIs treatment-related pleural effusion,in order to enhance understanding of this complication and provide a reference for clinical practice.

Objective To assess the nutritional status of patients undergoing preventive ileostomy and identify the factors that influence the status,thereby providing guidance for medical staff to formulate nutritional intervention strategies.Methods Convenient sampling was used to select 239 patients undergoing preventive ileostomy who were attending follow-up visits or hospitalized while awaiting stoma closure at 4 tertiary hospitals in Guangzhou from November 2023 to July 2024.Data was collected by a general information questionnaire and the Patient-Generated Subjective Global Assessment tool.Factors influencing nutritional status were analyzed by multivariable ordinal Logistic regression.Results Of the 239 patients,227 provided valid responses.The nutritional status was categorized as follows:64 patients(28.19％)had good nutrition or were at risk of malnutrition;104(45.81％)exhibited moderate malnutrition;59(25.99％)had severe malnutrition.Multivariable ordinal Logistic regression analysis revealed that preoperative cumulative chemotherapy cycles,postoperative duration,age,current dietaiy type,use of oral nutritional supplements(ONS),enterostomy-related complications,and stoma self-care ability were significant predictors of nutritional status(P＜0.05).Conclusion Patients undergoing preventive ileostomy are at a high risk of moderate to severe malnutrition and ONS provided to patients did not result in a meaningful improvement in their nutritional health.Specifically,those patients with a higher number of cumulative preoperative chemotherapy cycles,shorter postoperative recovery time,aged ≥ 65 years,liquid diet or semi-liquid diet,experiencing enterostomy-related complications,or poor stoma self-care ability,are particularly vulnerable to malnutrition.These findings underscore the need for medical staff to formulate intervention strategies based on these factors to improve nutritional status of patients undergoing preventive ileostomy.
