Objective:
To establish a risk prediction model for diabetic peripheral neuropathy (DPN) among patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM), so as to provide a basis for DPN prevention and control.
Methods:
T2DM inpatients aged 18-65 years admitted to the department of endocrinology and metabolism at Affiliated Hospital Shandong Second Medical University from April to December 2024 were selected as study subjects. Age, T2DM duration, hypertension history, 25-hydroxyvitamin D, serum C-peptide, and high density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL-C) were collected through electronic medical records. Risk predictors of DPN among T2DM patients were screened using multivariable logistic regression model, and a nomogram was established. The receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve, calibration curve and decision curve analysis were employed to evaluate the discrimination, calibration and clinical utility of the nomogram, respectively.
Results:
A total of 598 T2DM patients were enrolled, including 359 (60.03%) males and 239 (39.97%) females. The median age was 54.50 (interquartile range, 15.00) years, the median T2DM duration was 6.00 (interquartile range, 9.00) years. There were 262 cases of T2DM patients with DPN, accounting for 43.81%. Multivariable logistic regression identified hypertension history (OR=3.260, 95%CI: 2.220-4.790), alcohol use history (OR=2.150, 95%CI: 1.390-3.310), diabetes complications (OR=0.430, 95%CI: 0.270-0.680), T2DM duration (OR=1.040, 95%CI: 1.010-1.070), body mass index (OR=1.130, 95%CI: 1.070-1.200), 25-hydroxyvitamin D (OR=0.930, 95%CI: 0.910-0.960), and HDL-C (OR=0.400, 95%CI: 0.230-0.720) as risk predictors for DPN among T2DM patients. The area under the ROC curve of the established risk prediction model was 0.774 (95%CI: 0.737-0.812), with a sensitivity of 0.710 and a specificity of 0.723. The calibration curve after repeated sampling calibration approached the standard curve. Decision curve analysis showed that when the risk threshold probability was 0.2 to 0.4, the model demonstrates favorable clinical applicability.
Conclusion
The risk prediction model established in this study has favorable discrimination, calibration, and clinical utility, can effectively predict the risk of DPN among T2DM patients aged 18-65 years.

Objective To investigate the biomechanical factors of the lower limbs that affect the mechanical energy of baseball batting.Methods C3D data were collected using a motion capture system and imported into Visual 3D to establish a Hanavan multi-rigid-body human model and a rigid-body model of the bat.Using a prepared pipeline command,the angular velocities and joint torques of the hip,knee,ankle joints,and trunk around the X,Y,and Z axes were calculated and exported.Stepwise multiple linear regression analysis was performed between independent and dependent variables using SPSS,and the factors and dependent variables were incorporated into the regression model.Results The top four independent variables that had the greatest impact on the mechanical energy of the bat were as follows:x19 right ankle joint plantar flexion/dorsiflexion torque(β=91.97),x2 left ankle joint inversion/eversion torque(β=91.74),x25 right hip joint flexion/extension torque(β=91.58),and x3 left ankle joint internal rotation/external rotation torque(β=91.50).Conclusions There is a strong correlation between the right hip joint flexion/extension torque and mechanical work of the bat.The batter transmits energy to the upper limbs by producing a right hip joint extension torque to rotate the trunk and pelvis.There is a close relationship between the adduction and abduction torques of the left ankle joint and mechanical work of the bat,which are used for body braking in the early stages of batting and body rotation in later stages.It is necessary to conduct specific strength training for the adductors of the left ankle joint,extensors of the right hip joint,and plantar flexors of the right ankle joint to enhance batting power.

The prefrontal cortex and hippocampus may support sequential working memory beyond episodic memory and spatial navigation. This stereoelectroencephalography (SEEG) study investigated how the dorsolateral prefrontal cortex (DLPFC) interacts with the hippocampus in the online processing of sequential information. Twenty patients with epilepsy (eight women, age 27.6 ± 8.2 years) completed a line ordering task with SEEG recordings over the DLPFC and the hippocampus. Participants showed longer thinking times and more recall errors when asked to arrange random lines clockwise (random trials) than to maintain ordered lines (ordered trials) before recalling the orientation of a particular line. First, the ordering-related increase in thinking time and recall error was associated with a transient theta power increase in the hippocampus and a sustained theta power increase in the DLPFC (3-10 Hz). In particular, the hippocampal theta power increase correlated with the memory precision of line orientation. Second, theta phase coherences between the DLPFC and hippocampus were enhanced for ordering, especially for more precisely memorized lines. Third, the theta band DLPFC → hippocampus influence was selectively enhanced for ordering, especially for more precisely memorized lines. This study suggests that theta oscillations may support DLPFC-hippocampal interactions in the online processing of sequential information.

Lamin B1 (LMNB1) is highly expressed in liver cancer tissues, and its influence and mechanism on the proliferation of hepatocellular carcinoma cells were explored by knocking down the expression of the protein. In liver cancer cells, siRNAs were used to knock down LMNB1. Knockdown effects were detected by Western blotting. Changes in telomerase activity were detected by telomeric repeat amplification protocol assay (TRAP) experiments. Telomere length changes were detected by quantitative real-time polymerase chain reaction (qPCR). CCK8, cloning formation, transwell and wound healing were performed to detect changes in its growth, invasion and migration capabilities. The lentiviral system was used to construct HepG2 cells that steadily knocked down LMNB1. Then the changes of telomere length and telomerase activity were detected, and the cell aging status was detected by SA-β-gal senescence staining. The effects of tumorigenesis were detected by nude mouse subcutaneous tumorigenesis experiments, subsequent histification staining of tumors, SA-β-gal senescence staining, fluorescence in situ hybridization (FISH) for telomere analysis and other experiments. Finally, the method of biogenesis analysis was used to find the expression of LMNB1 in clinical liver cancer tissues, and its relationship with clinical stages and patient survival. Knockdown of LMNB1 in HepG2 and Hep3B cells significantly reduced telomerase activity, cell proliferation, migration and invasion abilities. Experiments in cells and tumor formation in nude mice had demonstrated that stable knockdown of LMNB1 reduced telomerase activity, shortened telomere length, senesced cells, reduced cell tumorigenicity and KI-67 expression. Bioinformatics analysis showed that LMNB1 was highly expressed in liver cancer tissues and correlated with tumor stage and patient survival. In conclusion, LMNB1 is overexpressed in liver cancer cells, and it is expected to become an indicator for evaluating the clinical prognosis of liver cancer patients and a target for precise treatment.

Objective:To explore the regulatory mechanism of α-synuclein in the degradation of autophagy-lysosome pathway(ALP) in Parkinson disease(PD) model cells after interference or overexpression of dynein heavy chain(Dynhc) gene.Methods:SH-SY5Y cells were divided into control group, PD group, Dynhc interference group, Dynhc overexpression group, and Dynhc interference+ rapamycin group according to experimental requirements.Using Western blot to detect Dynhc, α-synuclein, microtubule-associated protein l light chain 3 (LC3), lysosome-associated membrane protein 2 (LAMP2), tubulin, dynein activator protein p150, and kinesin KIF5B.Flow cytometry was used to detect the level of cell apoptosis.Immunoconfocal microscopy was used to observe the structure of tubulin and the co-localization of LC3 and LAMP.SPSS 23.0 software was used for statistical analysis.One-way ANOVA was used for inter group comparisons, and further pairwise comparisons were conducted by LSD- t test. Results:There were statistically significant differences in the expression of α-synuclein, autophagy-related proteins, microtubules, and microtubule-related proteins among cells in the 5 groups(all P<0.001). The protein expression levels of Dynhc, α-synuclein, LC3, LAMP2, p150, and KIF5B in the PD group were higher than those in the control group (all P<0.05). The protein levels of Dynhc, LAMP2, tubulin and p150 in the Dynhc interference group were lower than those in the PD group (all P<0.05), while the protein levels of α-synuclein, LC3 and KIF5B were higher than those in the PD group (all P<0.05). The protein levels of α-synuclein, LC3, and KIF5B in the Dynhc overexpression group were lower than those in the PD group (all P<0.05), while the protein levels of Dynhc, LAMP2 and p150 were higher than those in the PD group (all P<0.05). The protein level of LC3 in the Dynhc interference+ rapamycin group was higher than that in the Dynhc interference group ( P<0.05). There were no statistically significant differences in the protein levels of Dynhc, α-synuclein, LAMP2, microtubule protein, p150 and KIF5B compared to the Dynhc interference group (all P>0.05). Compared with the control group, the cell apoptosis rate in PD group increased((12.77±1.66)%, (7.64±1.45)%), the microtubule morphology remained unchanged, and autophagosomes fused more with lysosomes. Compared with the PD group, the cell apoptosis rate of Dynhc overexpression group decreased, and there was no significant change in microtubule structure, and there was more fusion between autophagosomes and lysosomes.Compared with the PD group, the cell apoptosis rat of Dynhc interference group increased((18.45±1.91)%), and the microtubule morphology was sparse, and there was less fusion between autophagosomes and lysosomes. Compared with the PD group, the Dynhc overexpression group showed a decrease in cell apoptosis rate ((9.95±1.56)%), no significant changes in microtubule structure, and more fusion between autophagosomes and lysosomes.Compared with the Dynhc interference group, the Dynhc interference+ rapamycin group showed no significant changes in cell apoptosis rate ((19.05±2.46)%), microtubule morphology, and fusion of autophagosomes and lysosomes. Conclusion:Dynhc can reduce cell apoptosis by enhancing cell ALP function, increasing the degradation of α-synuclein and maintaining of microtubule structure integrity.

Objective:To explore the classification and treatment strategy of femoral neck fracture combined with ipsilateral intertrochanteric fracture.Methods:A retrospective analysis was performed of the 44 patients who had been admitted to Department of Orthopedics, Liangxiang Teaching Hospital, Capital Medical University from March 2003 to March 2019 for femoral neck fracture combined with ipsilateral intertrochanteric fracture. They were 19 males and 25 females, aged from 37 to 93 years (average, 77.9 years). According to the anatomical location and displacement severity, the femoral neck fractures were divided into 3 types while the intertrochanteric fractures were classified as stable or unstable ones. There were 3 cases of type Ⅰ which were completely extracapsular ones, 31 cases of type Ⅱ which were intracapsular stable ones, and 10 cases of type Ⅲ which were intracapsular unstable ones. Types Ⅰ and Ⅱ fractures were treated with intramedullary fixation, and type Ⅲ fractures with cemented hip hemi-replacement+reduction and fixation of the intertrochanteric fracture with Kirschner wires and steel cables. Recorded were fracture healing time, function of the affected hip and complications.Results:The 44 patients were followed up for at least 2 years. The fracture healing time for the 3 patients with type I fracture averaged 5.6 months (from 4.4 to 6.8 months); their hip function at the last follow-up, evaluated by the Harris scoring system, was excellent in 2 cases and good in one case. For 30 of the 31 patients with type Ⅱ fracture, the fracture healing time averaged 7.2 months (from 5.1 to 9.3 months); their hip function at the last follow-up, evaluated by the Harris scoring system, was excellent in 18 cases, good in 6 cases, fair in 5 cases, and poor in 2 cases, giving an excellent and good rate of 77.4% (24/31). As for complications, withdrawal or cutting-out of the head screw happened in 6 cases, infection in one case and nonunion in one case. In 10 patients with type Ⅲ fracture, the hip function at the last follow-up was excellent in 7 cases, good in 2 cases and poor in one case.Conclusions:For type Ⅰ and type Ⅱ femoral neck fractures combined with ipsilateral intertrochanteric fracture, intramedullary fixation with angulation stability may be a proper choice. For type Ⅲ ones, hip joint replacement should be the first choice.
