Hypoglycemic drugs are an important means of treatment for patients with type 2 diabetes.However,poor,ineffective and even adverse drug reactions often occur in clinical treatment.With the develop-ment of pharmacogenomics,the link between individual genetic variation and drug dose and treatment re-sponse is becoming clearer,resulting in better efficacy and fewer adverse reactions for patients.This article fo-cuses on hypoglycemic drugs and reviews the latest advances in pharmacogenomics,so as to provide references for individualized treatment of type 2 diabetes and prevention of corresponding complications until the realiza-tion of precision medicine

Macrophages are closely related to tumor progression,and can promote tumor growth and pro-liferation by promoting inflammation,angiogenesis and immunosuppression and so on,as well as killing tumors by directly killing tumor cells and triggering specific immune responses.Iron death,as an iron-depend-ent cell death caused by lipid peroxidation,can effectively kill tumor cells when regulated from the perspective of iron homeostasis,and can also release pro-inflammatory factors,trigger inflammatory reactions,change the survival environment of tumors as well as reduce the immune susceptibility of tumor cells.In recent years,more and more studies have shown that macrophages and iron death are closely related.In this paper,the rela-tionship between macrophages and iron death in terms of their functional properties and targeting of tumors are mainly introduced,and an overview of the functional properties of the two differentiated phenotypes of macrophages for the treatment of iron death in tumors is provided.

Objective To investigate the expression levels of micro RNA-651(miR-651)and the transcrip-tion factor Forkhead Box N2(FOXN2)in lung cancer tissues and to analyse their relationship with patients' prognosis after lobectomy.Methods A total of 98 patients with lung cancer who underwent lobectomy from January 2020 to December 2021 in Nantong Cancer Hospital were selected as research objects,the lung cancer tissue specimens and corresponding paracancerous tissue specimens of patients were collected,the expression levels of miR-651 and FOXN2 were detected by real-time fluorescence quantitative PCR(qPCR),and their re-lationship with the prognosis of patients after lobectomy was analyzed.Results At 2-year follow-up,19(19.39％)of 98 patients had recurrent metastasis,and the median time to recurrent metastasis was 20 months(95％CI:18.626--21.374).qPCR assay showed that the expression levels of miR-651 and FOXN2 in lung cancer tissues were significantly lower than those in paracancerous tissues(P＜0.05).miR-651 and FOXN2 expression levels were significantly correlated with clinicopathological features such as tumour size,TNM stage and lymph node metastasis(P＜0.05).The results of univariate Cox regression analysis showed that the percentages of maximum tumor diameter ≥3 cm,TNM stage Ⅱ,lymph node metastasis,miR-651 low ex-pression and FOXN2 low expression were higher in the poor prognosis group than those in the good prognosis group(P＜0.05).Multifactorial Cox regression analysis showed that maximum tumor diameter ≥ 3 cm(HR=3.185,95％CI:1.105-9.182),TNM stage Ⅱ(HR=5.167,95％CI:1.939-13.771),lymph node metastasis(HR=2.860,95％CI:1.115-7.338),low miR-651 expression(HR=5.345,95％CI:1.845-15.483)and low FOXN2 expression(HR=5.404,95％CI:1.744-16.745)were independent risk factors for the prognosis of lung cancer patients after lobectomy(P＜0.05).Conclusion The expression levels of miR-651 and FOXN2 were reduced in the tissues of lung cancer patients,and both were associated with tumour size,TNM stage,lymph node metastasis,and patients' prognosis after lobectomy.

Objective To analyze the antiviral effect of molnupiravir against influenza virus in vitro and in vivo.Methods The antiviral ability of molnupiravir against influenza virus strain H1N1 PR8 was detected in vitro and in vivo.H uman non-small cell lung cancer cell line(A549 cells)was used as an in vitro model of PR8 infection.The antiviral effects of molnupiravir on virus replication,protein synthesis,and viral particle formation were analyzed using real-time fluorescence quantitative polymerase chain reaction(qRT-PCR),Western blot(WB)assay,and plaque assay.PR8 nose-dripping infected C57BL/6 female mice were used as an in vivo infection model.The antivi-ral ability of molnupiravir was evaluated by detecting viral load,pathological changes,and immunohistochemistry in the control group,administration group,inoculation group,and inoculation-administration group.Results In vitro test results showed that molnupiravir had no significant inhibitory effect on influenza virus replication,protein syn-thesis,and virus particle formation(all P＞0.05).In vivo test results showed that compared with mice infected with H1N1 alone,the viral load in the lung tissue of mice treated with molnupiravir declined significantly,and the extent of pathological changes was milder.Immunohistochemical detection showed a significant weakening in nuclear protein(NP)antigen signal,and the expression levels of interferon(IFN)-α,interleukin(IL)-4,and IL-6 in the lungs were lower(all P＜0.01).Conclusion As a precursor with antiviral activity,molnupiravir can not exert anti-viral activity in lung-derived cells cultured in vitro,but can be transformed into an active form in the host,which significantly decreases the ability of H1N1 influenza virus to proliferate in the lungs and thereby alleviates the da-mage of virus to lung tissue.

Objective To report the individualized rehabilitation protocol administered to a patient suffering from corpus callosum injury subsequent to cerebral infarction,manifesting clinically as alien hand syndrome,attention deficits,spatial neglect and gait apraxia;and to emphasize the application of functional near infrared spectroscopy(fNIRS)in the assessment of cerebral activation.Methods A 54-year-old male with corpus callosum damage following cerebral infarction was assessed by a comprehen-sive array of neuropsychological assessments,such as Mini-Mental State Examination,Montreal Cognitive As-sessment,Loewenstein Occupational Therapy Cognitive Assessment and Wisconsin Card Sorting Test,etc.Based on these assessments,a personalized rehabilitation program was devised,incorporating physical therapy,occupa-tional therapy,task-oriented training,mirror therapy,computer-assisted cognitive training,as well as Schulte's square attention training,bilateral limb coordination training and transcranial magnetic stimulation(TMS).fNIRS was used to evaluate changes in brain activation before and after rehabilitation.Results After more than a month of comprehensive rehabilitation,the patient experienced significant improvements in Alien hand syndrome,attention deficit and spatial neglect.Gait was normalized,and enhancements were ob-served in motor function,cognition and activity of daily living.fNIRS analysis revealed favorable alterations in cerebral activation patterns.Conclusion For the intricate symptoms associated with corpus callosum injury,a multidisciplinary rehabilitation ap-proach,particularly the incorporation of Schulte's square attention training,bilateral coordination exercises and TMS,alongside fNIRS for monitoring cerebral activation,showed significant rehabilitation effects.

OBJECTIVE: To investigate the biological effect of medical recombinant human-derived collagen functional dressings in wound healing. METHODS: MTT assay and RTCA assay were used to detect cell toxicity and proliferation. Scratch assay and Transwell cell migration assay were used to detect cell motility and migration ability. Enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay was used to detect the contents of vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF), fibroblast growth factor (FGF), and platelet-endothelial cell adhesion molecule (CD31) in the supernatant of four types of cells. After animal surgery, the surgical wound was taken at 1 week, 4 weeks and 13 weeks, respectively, for hematoxylin eosin (HE) staining and immunohistochemistry to observe the inflammatory response and CD31 expression of the wound. RESULTS: Medical recombinant human-derived collagen functional dressing promotes cell proliferation and migration, enhances wound angiogenesis by upregulating the expression of VEGF, FGF, and CD31 in human dermal vascular endothelial cells (HDVEC) and human vascular endothelial cells (HVEC), thereby improving local blood supply to the wound, regulating the inflammatory response of the wound, and accelerating wound healing. CONCLUSION Recombinant type Ⅲ humanized collagen plays an important role in wound healing.

Objective:To explore the mediating effect of sense of coherence (SOC) on the utilization of chronic disease resources and symptom distress in liver cancer patients after transarterial chemoembolization (TACE), so as to provide a basis for comprehensive management strategies from a new perspective.Methods:A convenience sampling method was used to select 260 inpatients who underwent TACE in Xinxiang Central Hospital and Henan Provincial People's Hospital from September 2023 to October 2024 as the research objects. The Basic Information Questionnaire, Sense of Coherence Scale-13 (SOC-13), Chronic Illness Resource Survey (CIRS), and the Rotterdam Symptom Checklist (RSCL) were used to investigate the patients. Pearson correlation was used to analyze the relationships among SOC, chronic disease resource utilization, and symptom distress in patients after TACE. Structural equation modeling was established using AMOS 21.0 software to verify the mediating effect.Results:A total of 260 questionnaires were distributed, and 249 valid questionnaires were recovered, with a valid recovery rate of 95.77% (249/260). The SOC-13 score of 249 patients after TACE was (44.30±7.64), the CIRS score was (46.84±7.02), and the RSCL score was (93.61±8.85). The SOC-13 score was positively correlated with the CIRS score ( P<0.01) and negatively correlated with the RSCL score ( P<0.01). The CIRS score was negatively correlated with the RSCL score ( P<0.01). SOC had a direct negative effect on symptom distress (β'=-0.382, P<0.01), chronic disease resource utilization had a direct negative effect on symptom distress (β'=-0.176, P<0.01), and SOC played a partial mediating role between chronic disease resource utilization and symptom distress (β'=-0.148, P<0.01), with the mediating effect accounting for 45.68% of the total effect. Conclusions:There are certain deficiencies in the sense of coherence and chronic disease resource utilization in patients after TACE, and the phenomenon of symptom distress is obvious. SOC plays a partial mediating role between chronic disease resource utilization and symptom distress.

Objective:To explore the trajectory of changes in electronic health literacy in young and middle-aged patients with coronary heart disease (CHD) combined with diabetes mellitus (DM) after percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI), and to analyze its relationship with unplanned readmission within 30 days.Methods:A convenience sample of 210 young and middle-aged CHD patients with DM who underwent PCI in the Department of Cardiology, Xinxiang Central Hospital, from February 2023 to June 2024 was selected. The e-Health Literacy Scale (eHEALS) was used to assess electronic health literacy at the 3rd day (T 1), 15th day (T 2), and 30th day (T 3) after PCI. Unplanned readmission within 30 days after discharge was recorded. Latent class growth model (LCGM) was used to identify categories and characteristics of electronic health literacy trajectories. Kaplan-Meier method was applied to plot the cumulative incidence of 30-day unplanned readmission, and the Log-Rank test was used to compare differences among different trajectory types. Results:A total of 207 patients completed the entire survey and follow-up, with a valid response rate of 98.57% (207/210). eHEALS scores gradually increased after PCI, with scores of (6.75±1.31), (11.55±3.31), and (15.56±5.75) at T 1, T 2, and T 3, respectively. Two potential categories were identified: persistent low-level type (85 cases, 41.06%) and gradually improving type (122 cases, 58.94%). Twenty-six patients experienced unplanned readmission within 30 days, with an incidence of 12.56%. The proportions of unplanned readmission within 30 days were 20.00% (17/85) in the persistent low-level group and 7.38% (9/122) in the gradually improving group, with a statistically significant difference (χ 2=7.268, P=0.007). Kaplan-Meier cumulative risk function analysis showed that the cumulative incidence of 30-day unplanned readmission in the gradually improving group was lower than that in the persistent low-level group, with a statistically significant difference (Log-Rank=7.683, P=0.006) . Conclusions:Young and middle-aged CHD patients with DM after PCI show trajectory characteristics in electronic health literacy. Although the electronic health literacy of some patients gradually improved after PCI, persistent low-level literacy was still common, and patients in the persistent low-level group had a higher risk of 30-day unplanned readmission, which deserves clinical attention.

Objective To analyze the factors influencing iodine nutritional status in pregnant women dur-ing pregnancy,based on thyroid function and thyroid autoantibody levels,and to explore the association between iodine nutritional abnormalities and pregnancy outcomes.Methods A total of 838 pregnant women who underwent routine prenatal checkups at Qinghai Provincial People's Hospital between January 2021 and June 2023 were pro-spectively enrolled in this study.All participants were followed until delivery.Seven cases were lost to follow-up,resulting in a final sample size of 831 participants.Among them,276 were in the first trimester,384 in the second trimester,and 171 in the third trimester.Data on urinary iodine concentration(UIC),urinary creatinine(UCr),thyroid function indicators,and thyroid autoantibodies were collected.Based on their iodine nutritional status,the participants were categorized into either the iodine-sufficient group or the iodine-abnormal group(including iodine-deficient,iodine-hyper-sufficient,and iodine-excessive subgroups).This study analyzed the iodine nutritional sta-tus of pregnant women during different gestational periods,compared thyroid function indices,prevalence of thy-roid diseases,and the positivity rates of thyroid peroxidase antibody(TPOAb),thyroglobulin antibody(TGAb),and thyroid-stimulating hormone receptor antibody(TRAb)among different iodine status groups.Additionally,ad-verse pregnancy outcomes were compared across groups.Multivariate logistic regression analysis was conducted to identify risk factors associated with iodine abnormalities during pregnancy,and a predictive model was developed to assess its potential predictive value.Results Among the 831 pregnant women included in the study,373 cases(44.89％)exhibited iodine sufficiency,while 458 cases(55.11％)presented with iodine abnormalities,including 282 cases of iodine deficiency,144 cases of iodine hypersufficiency,and 32 cases of iodine excess.No statistically significant differences were observed in the iodine nutritional status across different trimesters(P>0.05).The se-rum level of thyroid-stimulating hormone(TSH)was significantly higher in the iodine abnormal group compared to the iodine sufficient group(P<0.05).Additionally,the iodine abnormal group demonstrated higher positivity rates of TPOAb alone,TGAb,and TRAb,as well as increased incidence of thyroid dysfunction and total adverse pregnancy outcomes compared to the iodine sufficient group(all P<0.05).These adverse indicators were also sig-nificantly elevated in the iodine-deficient,iodine super-sufficient,and iodine overdose subgroups compared to the iodine sufficient group(P<0.05).Elevated serum TSH levels and the presence of TPOAb,TGAb,and TRAb were identified as risk factors for iodine abnormalities during pregnancy(P<0.05).The predictive model con-structed for identifying iodine abnormalities in pregnant women demonstrated an area under the curve(AUC)of 0.876,with a sensitivity of 72.27％and a specificity of 89.01％.Conclusions The prevalence of iodine nutritional abnormalities among pregnant women during pregnancy was high,with most cases presenting iodine deficiency.These abnormalities were associated with thyroid function,thyroid autoimmunity,and pregnancy outcomes,but showed no significant correlation with gestational age.Furthermore,the prediction model developed based on iden-tified risk factors demonstrated effective performance in predicting iodine nutritional abnormalities during preg-nancy.
