Panvascular diseases are systemic diseases with atherosclerosis as the pathological core, involving multiple vascular beds and target organs throughout the body. Due to their wide range and complexity, the traditional single-discipline prevention and treatment model struggles to meet the needs of systematic management, while clinical diagnosis often remains one-sided and insufficient, leading to delayed treatment. Literature reviews show that panvascular diseases involve a wide range of lesion sites, numerous influencing factors, and are prone to endangering life and health. It is urgent to construct a comprehensive and whole-course prevention and treatment management system, with vascular health as the goal and patients as the core. First, early screening and risk assessment should be conducted for high-risk groups. In terms of treatment decisions for patients, multi-disciplinary collaboration is needed to establish a scientific and standardized prevention and treatment path. Second, it is important to attach great importance to a people-centered approach, enhance patients' familiarity with the disease through cognitive intervention, and shift from passive treatment to active health care. Thirdly, it is needed to leverage the advantages of modern science and technology, promote the deep integration of artificial intelligence innovations and modern medicine, and help traditional diagnosis and treatment plans evolve towards precision, intelligence, and personalization. This will open up new paths for the modernization of the whole-course management of pan-vascular diseases. Fourth, efforts should be made to continue to carry forward and innovate the characteristics of traditional Chinese medicine, adhere to equal emphasis on modern and traditional medicine, promote complementary advantages and coordinated development of Chinese and Western medicine, and form a unique Chinese model for the whole-course management of panvascular diseases. Fifth, through the reintegration and redistribution of government, medical insurance, and medical resources, comprehensive talents in the broad vascular disciplines should be cultivated and an efficient hierarchical management model established, providing reference and guidance for the whole-course management of comprehensive diseases in the future.

Objective:
To explore the latent class characteristics and related factors of health risk behaviors among higher vocational college students (referred to as vocational students) in the Wuling Mountain Area, so as to provide references for promoting their healthy development and formulating effective intervention measures.
Methods:
From April to June 2024, a stratified random cluster sampling method was used to survey 1 737 students from three higher vocational colleges in the Wuling Mountain Area (Xiangxi in Hunan, Enshi in Hubei, and Tongren in Guizhou). The study employed the Health risk Behavior Questionnaire for College Students, the Parent-Child Relationship Scale, the Social Support Scale, and the School Connection Scale for data collection. Latent class analysis (LCA) was used to examine the heterogeneous distribution characteristics of health risk behaviors among vocational students, and multivariate Logistic regression was applied to analyze the related factors of latent classes.
Results:
The LCA results identified three latent classes based on 12 health risk behaviors: the comprehensive high risk group (151 students, 8.7% ), the psychological distress group (883 students, 50.8%), and the low risk group (703 students, 40.5%). The distribution of latent classes showed statistically significant differences in gender and only child status ( χ 2=121.25, 9.85, both P <0.05). The low risk group scored higher in parent-child relationship (29.26±6.19), social support (63.98±18.16), and school connection (35.97± 7.71 ) compared to the comprehensive high risk group (27.28±6.03, 57.67±15.60, 32.97±7.55) and the psychological distress group (27.52±5.19, 62.06±14.54, 33.80±6.14) ( F =20.37, 23.51, 9.89, all P <0.05). Multivariate Logistic regression revealed that boys( OR =3.29) were more likely to belong to the comprehensive high risk group, social support ( OR =0.03, 0.21) and school connection ( OR =0.92, 0.96) were less likely to belong to both the comprehensive high risk and psychological distress groups (all P < 0.05).
Conclusions
There are three potential categories of healthharmful behaviors among vocational college students in Wuling Mountain Area. Schools, families and society should enhance the levels of parent-child relationship, school connections and social support for vocational college students of different categories to promote their physical and mental health development.

Extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO) is a key continuous extracorporeal life support technology that can partially or completely replace a patient's cardiopulmonary function, thereby winning valuable time for the diagnosis and treatment of the primary disease. With the widespread application of ECMO, the need for transport has increased. However, during transfers, the standard heater unit is often large and inconvenient to carry, while alternative warming measures tend to be ineffective. This frequently leads to complications such as hypothermia or the inability to maintain body temperature, which can seriously affect the patient's prognosis. In response to this challenge, the medical and nursing staff of the critical care medicine department at Zhongda Hospital Affiliated to Southeast University jointly designed an insulation device for ECMO transport pipelines. The device was successfully granted a National Utility Model Patent of China (patent number: ZL 2021 2 0653569.3). It primarily consists of key components such as a heating pad, velcro straps, a cover layer, a backing layer, an electric heating layer, and a wiring plug. Its advantages include portability, the ability to effectively wrap around and warm the ECMO circuit during transit, and a reduction in the incidence of hypothermia-related complications. Furthermore, its transparent material design allows for real-time monitoring of the ECMO system's status, making it both economical and practical.

Five novel nor-eremophilane-type sesquiterpenoids, peniroqueforins E-H and J (1-4 and 7), two new eremophilane-type sesquiterpenoids, peniroqueforins I and K (5 and 8), and a new eudesmane-type sesquiterpenoid, peniroqueforin L (9), along with four known compounds (6 and 10-12), were isolated and characterized from fungus Penicillium roqueforti (P. roqueforti). The structures and absolute configurations of these compounds were determined through comprehensive spectroscopic analyses, electronic circular dichroism (ECD) data analyses, and single-crystal X-ray diffraction methods. The anti-multi-drug resistance (MDR) cancer activity of these compounds was evaluated using SW620/Ad300 cells. Notably, the half maximal inhibitory concentration (IC50) value of paclitaxel (PTX) combined with 1 in SW620/Ad300 cells was 50.36 nmol·L-1, which was 65-fold more potent than PTX alone (IC50 3.26 μmol·L-1). Subsequent molecular docking studies revealed an affinity between compound 1 and P-glycoprotein (P-gp), suggesting that this nor-eremophilane-type sesquiterpenoid (1) could serve as a potential lead for MDR reversal in cancer cells through P-gp inhibition.

Objective To reveal the thermally induced denaturation of wild-type human γ D-crystallin(HGD)and congenital cataract-related mutant(HGD P23T),and compare the differences in the structural changes between wild-type and mutants during a heating process.Methods HGD and HGD P23T were expressed and purified.The temperature-dependent intrinsic fluorescence intensity and static light scattering intensity of the protein samples were measured to reveal the temperature-dependent folding and aggregation structural changes of HGD and HGD P23T.Results When the temperature was below 70℃,the barycentric mean of the intrinsic fluorescence of HGD and HGD P23T shifted towards a longer wavelength with increasing temperature and the fluorescence intensity de-creased indicating the unfolded protein conformations.The conformational stability of HGD P23T was weaker than that of HGD.When temperature was higher than 70℃,the static light scattering intensity increased significantly with temperature,indicating protein aggregation upon heating.Relative to the wild-type,HGD P23T showed a stronger aggregation potency.Conclusions Heating disrupts the folding conformation of Γd-crystallin,induces the unfolded protein to aggregate.The disease-associated P23T mutation significantly reduces the conformational stability of Γd-crystallin.

Periodontitis is a common chronic inflammatory disease that causes the periodontal bone destruction and may ultimately result in tooth loss.With the progression of periodontitis,the osteoimmunology microenvironment in periodontitis is damaged and leads to the formation of pathological alveolar bone resorption.CD301b+macrophages are specific to the osteoimmunology microenvironment,and are emerging as vital booster for conducting bone regeneration.However,the key upstream targets of CD301b+macrophages and their potential mechanism in periodontitis remain elusive.In this study,we concentrated on the role of Tim4,a latent upstream regulator of CD301b+macrophages.We first demonstrated that the transcription level of Timd4(gene name of Tim4)in CD301b+macrophages was significantly upregulated compared to CD301b-macrophages via high-throughput RNA sequencing.Moreover,several Tim4-related functions such as apoptotic cell clearance,phagocytosis and engulfment were positively regulated by CD301b+macrophages.The single-cell RNA sequencing analysis subsequently discovered that Cd301b and Timd4 were specifically co-expressed in macrophages.The following flow cytometric analysis indicated that Tim4 positive expression rates in total macrophages shared highly synchronized dynamic changes with the proportions of CD301b+macrophages as periodontitis progressed.Furthermore,the deficiency of Tim4 in mice decreased CD301b+macrophages and eventually magnified alveolar bone resorption in periodontitis.Additionally,Tim4 controlled the p38 MAPK signaling pathway to ultimately mediate CD301b+macrophages phenotype.In a word,Tim4 might regulate CD301b+macrophages through p38 MAPK signaling pathway in periodontitis,which provided new insights into periodontitis immunoregulation as well as help to develop innovative therapeutic targets and treatment strategies for periodontitis.

Objective:To introduce the method of using anal fistula endoscope to treat chronic sinus tract leakage at rectal anastomosis site.Methods:We used anal fistula endoscopy to treat a patient with chronic sinus tract leakage after radical resection of rectal cancer, mainly including the following 5 steps: (1) establishing a water injection circulation system through the anus; (2) scraping off purulent coating and mucosa on the surface of the sinus tract with the brush; (3) hemostasis and removal of necrotic tissue with electrocoagulation rods; (4) filling the sinus tract with bioprotein gel; (5) compressing the sinus tract with transanal drainage tube.Results:The patient is a 70 year old male with rectal cancer. After undergoing 3D laparoscopic assisted radical resection of rectal cancer via abdominal anterior resection (Dixon's procedure) and diverting ileostomy surgery for more than 3 months, leakage of the rectal anastomosis was found through colonoscopy and anal iodine water contrast imaging .The patient started eating and flowing juice 6 hours after surgery, got out of bed 24 hours after surgery, and was discharged 48 hours after the removal of the anal canal. Three months after surgery, colonoscopy and transanal iodine hydrography showed that the sinus repair was intact. The diverting ileostomy was reduced 4 months after surgery.Conclusion:Anal fistula endoscope is safe and feasible for the treatment of chronic sinus tract anastomotic leakage in selected patients.

Objective:To investigate the application effects of a novel framework: the external septal retention bionic framework in East Asian rhinoplasty.Methods:A retrospective analysis was performed based on the clinical data of the patients who received treatments in Department of Plastic and Aesthetic ( Burn) Surgery, the Second Xiangya Hospital, Central South University from January 2022 to July 2023 using an external septal retention bionic framework with autologous costal cartilage rhinoplasty. The patients were all treated with a V-shaped incision at the nasal columella, which continued to both sides of the nose to form a bird-shaped incision. During the operation, the sixth or seventh costal cartilage was sculpted to form the nasal columella support grafts (sturt), external nasal septal graft, cap grafts, and shield grafts, in which the nasal column support graft and external nasal septal graft were implanted in a mortise-and-tenon joint structure to form a septum bionic retained external stent in order to lengthen the nasal columellar column and strengthen the septum. A capsular graft was used to shape the tip of the nose and the rectus abdominis fascia was covered to soften the tip of the nose, and the shield grafts were used to fill out the subnasal lobules. A bulb was sculpted, shaped and implanted in the dorsal space to elevate the nasal dorsum. To observe the postoperative results and complications, a postoperative satisfaction survey was completed using the rhinoplasty outcome evaluation (ROE) and the visual analogue scale (VAS) with regular follow-up. Comparison of preoperative and postoperative scale scores was performed using paired samples t-test. Nasal stent stability was assessed by measuring the patients’ preoperative and postoperative nasolabial angle and nasal tip protrusion. The comparison of preoperative and postoperative nasolabial angle was performed using the paired-sample t-test, and the comparison of nasal tip protrusion was performed using the Wilcoxon signed rank-sum test, P<0.05 considered a statistically significant difference. Results:A total of 33 patients were enrolled, including 4 males and 29 females, with average age of 23.8 years(15-42 years). The follow-up period is (14.52 ± 4.72) months (3 to 21 months). Thirty-three patients recovered well after surgery, and no short-term complications such as infection or bleeding occurred. The patients' nasal aesthetic problems such as saddle nose, deviated nasal columella, bilateral asymmetry of the nose, bilateral nasal base depression, and rounded shield of the nasal tip were improved after surgery. Satisfaction survey results: ROE and VAS scores were significantly higher than those before surgery, which were [(17.92±2.56) vs.(12.78±3.14)] and [(8.08±1.66)vs(5.15±1.99)], ( P<0.05), 87.9% (27/33)of the patients were satisfied with the aesthetic and functional outcomes of the nose. Comparisons of nasolabial angle [(87.28±2.58)° vs. (97.64±1.95)°] and tip protrusion [1.88 (1.78, 1.95) cm vs. 2.16(2.01, 2.32) cm] measurements between preoperative and postoperative period of the 33 patients, the differences were statistically significant ( P<0.05). Conclusion:Rhinoplasty for East Asians employs an external septal retention bionic framework to retain the nasal septum. This technique can avoid septal cartilage resorption caused by compression of grafts transplanted in the future, and cause less damage to the anatomy and physiology of the nose. The framework is relatively easy to construct, with a stable and strong stent, and good patient satisfaction. It can achieve a more desirable aesthetic effect of the nose.
