Objective To investigate the post-discharge exercise behavior and factors influencing moderate to vigorous intensity physical activity (MVPA) in patients undergoing lung surgery. Methods A total of 2874 patients from the large prospective, observational perioperative lung symptom study cohort (CN-PRO-Lung 3) in the Department of Thoracic Surgery at Sichuan Cancer Hospital between April 7, 2021, and January 31, 2024, were selected as the survey subjects. A survey was conducted using the Investigation of Exercise Behavior after Lung Surgery questionnaire and the International Physical Activity Questionnaire-Short Form (IPAQ-SF) among patients who underwent lung surgery. Binary logistic regression was used to analyze the factors influencing patients’ engagement in MVPA. Results A total of 702 patients were surveyed, including 252 males and 450 females, with an average age of (52.4±10.2) years. Patients with lung cancer accounted for 85.9%. Only 36.0% of the patients had regular exercise habits, while 42.3% did not engage in any physical activity. The three main barriers for postoperative exercise were physical discomfort (pain, coughing, shortness of breath, etc, 54.7%), lack of professional guidance (41.7%), and concerns about the surgical wound (28.9%). The proportions of patients engaging in vigorous, moderate, and low-intensity physical activity were 5.7%, 28.2%, and 66.1%, respectively. Multivariate analysis showed that patients with a personal annual income ≥50000 yuan (OR=1.52, 95%CI 1.01-2.29, P=0.044), high school education or above (OR=1.92, 95%CI 1.33-2.76, P<0.001), and lobectomy (OR=1.44, 95%CI 1.02-2.03, P=0.037) engaged in more MVPA. Conclusion Patients undergoing lung surgery have inadequate physical activity after discharge, particularly lacking in MVPA. Patients with higher income, higher educational levels, and lobectomy are more frequently engaged in MVPA. Measures such as symptom control, providing exercise guidance, and enhancing education on wound care may potentially improve the inadequate physical activity in lung surgery patients after discharge.

ObjectiveTo explore the effects of different dosage forms of Kaixinsan （KXS） on the morphology and function of mitochondria in rat models of Alzheimer's disease （AD） and potential mechanisms of action. MethodsMale SD rats were randomly assigned to a sham group， model group， treatment groups receiving KXS decoction， powders， and granules （3.08 g·kg^-1）， as well as donepezil group （0.51×10^-3 g·kg^-1）， with 10 rats in each group. AD model was created using intracerebroventricular injection of streptozocin （STZ）. After 30 days of administration， behavioral assessments were conducted， and mitochondrial morphology was observed using transmission electron microscopy. Mitochondrial respiratory chain complex content was measured via enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay （ELISA）. Changes in mitochondrial membrane potential were measured via JC-1 staining， and superoxide dismutase （SOD） activity and reactive oxygen species （ROS） levels were measured via biochemical assays. The mRNA expression of adenosine 5'-monophosphate-activated protein kinase （AMPK）， peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor gamma coactivator-1α （PGC-1α）， and silent information regulator 3 （SIRT3） was detected by real-time fluorescent quantitative polymerase chain reaction （Real-time PCR）， and Western blot was used to examine the protein expression levels of optic atrophy protein1 （OPA1）， mitochondrial fission protein 1 （FIS1）， AMPK， p-AMPK， PGC-1α， and SIRT3. ResultsCompared with the sham group， rats in the model group had significantly lower recognition index， spontaneous alternation rate， escape latency， number of platform crossings， time spent in the target quadrant， and percentage of distance traveled in the target quadrant distance （P<0.05， P<0.01）. Significant mitochondrial damage was observed in the hippocampal tissue， with a marked decrease in mitochondrial respiratory chain complex content （P<0.01） and reduced mitochondrial membrane potential （P<0.05）. Additionally， the SOD activity was reduced， while ROS levels were elevated （P<0.01）. The mRNA expression of PGC-1α and SIRT3 was significantly downregulated （P<0.01）， along with decreased protein expression levels of OPA1， p-AMPK/AMPK， PGC-1α， and SIRT3， whereas FIS1 protein expression was significantly upregulated （P<0.05， P<0.01）. Compared with the model group， rats in KXS-treated groups （various dosage forms） showed significant improvement in behavioral indexes （P<0.05， P<0.01）， reduced hippocampal mitochondrial damage， and more organized mitochondrial cristae. Mitochondrial respiratory chain complex content was significantly increased （P<0.05， P<0.01）， and mitochondrial membrane potentials were elevated （P<0.05）. SOD activity was elevated， and ROS levels were significantly reduced （P<0.05， P<0.01）. Furthermore， the mRNA expression of PGC-1α and SIRT3 was upregulated， with increased protein levels of OPA1， p-AMPK/AMPK， PGC-1α， and SIRT3， while FIS1 protein expression levels were significantly reduced （P<0.05， P<0.01）. Across the KXS-treated groups， the granule group showed a higher spontaneous alternation rate than the decoction and powder groups （P<0.05）. ConclusionKXS decoction， powders， and granules can improve the learning and memory ability of rats， with granules being the most effective. The mechanism of action may involve activation of the AMPK/PGC-1α/SIRT3 signaling pathway， improvement of the mitochondrial function， and subsequent amelioration of the brain energy metabolism disorders.

BackgroundIn recent years， the incidence of non-suicidal self-injury （NSSI） behaviors among adolescents has been increasing annually. Self-esteem and alexithymia are strongly associated with NSSI behaviors， and alienation is closely linked to both self-esteem and alexithymia. However， there is limited research on the relationship between alienation and NSSI behaviors among adolescents in China. ObjectiveTo analyze the relationship between alienation and NSSI behaviors among adolescents， and to explore the factors influencing NSSI behaviors in this population， so as to provide insights for the prevention and treatment of NSSI behaviors in adolescents. MethodsAdolescents admitted to the Department of Psychiatry and Psychology at the 923^rd Hospital of the Joint Logistics Support Force of the Chinese People's Liberation Army from September 1， 2021 to March 1， 2023， who met the diagnostic criteria for NSSI in the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders， fifth edition （DSM-5）， were selected as the study group （n=60）. Concurrently， middle school students from Nanning were recruited as the control group （n=60）. Participants were assessed using Adolescent Self Harm Scale （ASHS）， Rosenberg Self-Esteem Scale （RSES）， Toronto Alexithymia Scale （TAS） and Adolescent Students′ Alienation Scale （ASAS）. Pearson correlation analysis was employed to examine the relationships between scale scores in the study group， and Logistic regression analysis was used to identify the influencing factors of NSSI behaviors among adolescents. ResultsThe RSES score of the study group was significantly lower than that of the control group （t=-7.033， P<0.01）. The TAS and ASAS scores of the study group were significantly higher than those of the control group （t=5.591， 8.124， P<0.01）. The ASHS score was negatively correlated with RSES score （r=-0.410， P<0.01） and positively correlated with ASAS score （r=0.555， P<0.01）. The RSES scores of the study group were negatively correlated with TAS and ASAS scores （r=-0.317， -0.590， P<0.05 or 0.01）. Logistic regression analysis showed that being female （OR=0.714， 95% CI： 0.042~0.709） was a protective factor for NSSI behaviors among adolescents， while high alienation （OR=1.028， 95% CI： 1.013~1.043） and residing in rural areas （OR=6.692， 95% CI： 2.038~21.967） were risk factors for NSSI behaviors among adolescents. ConclusionAlienation was positively correlated with NSSI behaviors in adolescents. Female adolescents had a lower risk of NSSI behaviors， while those with higher levels of alienation or residing in rural areas were more prone to NSSI behaviors. ［Funded by Self-financed Scientific Research Project of the Health Commission of Guangxi Zhuang Autonomous Region （number， Z20210656）； Self-financed Scientific Research Project of the Health Commission of Guangxi Zhuang Autonomous Region （number， Z-A20231057）］

Chronic heart failure （CHF） is the final stage of cardiovascular diseases. It is a complex syndrome， with dyspnea and edema as the main clinical manifestations， and it is characterized by complex disease conditions， difficult cure， and high mortality. Ferroptosis， a new type of programmed cell death， is different from other types of programmed cell death. Ferroptosis is iron-dependent， accompanied by lipid peroxide accumulation and mitochondrial shrinkage， becoming a hot research topic. Studies have confirmed that ferroptosis plays a key role in the occurrence and development of CHF. The regulation of ferroptosis may become a potential target for the treatment of CHF in the future. The theory of Qi deficiency and stagnation refers to the pathological state of original Qi deficiency and abnormal transportation and distribution of Qi， blood， and body fluid， which has guiding significance for revealing the pathogenesis evolution of some chronic diseases. We believe that Qi deficiency and stagnation is a summary of the pathogenesis of ferroptosis in CHF. Deficiency of Qi （heart Qi） is the root cause of CHF， and stagnation （phlegm turbidity and blood stasis） is the branch of this disease. The two influence each other in a vicious circle to promote the development of this disease. Traditional Chinese medicine （TCM） plays an important role in the treatment of CHF， improving the prognosis and quality of life of CHF patients. This paper explores the correlation between the theory of Qi deficiency and stagnation and the mechanism of ferroptosis in CHF. Furthermore， this paper reviews the mechanism of Chinese medicines and compound prescriptions in preventing and treating CHF by regulating ferroptosis according to the principles of replenishing Qi and dredging to remove stagnation， aiming to provide new ideas and methods for the treatment of CHF with TCM.

Objective:To investigate the consistency and sensitivity of minimal residual disease (MRD) detected by multicolor flow cytometry (FCM) and real-time quantitative polymerase chain reaction (RQ-PCR) in patients with acute myeloid leukemia (AML) accompanied by monocytic differentiation after allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (allo-HSCT).Methods:A retrospective case series study was conducted. A total of 218 patients diagnosed with AML accompanied by monocytic differentiation who underwent allo-HSCT in Peking University People's Hospital between January 2017 and December 2021 were included. MRD was detected by using bone marrow FCM and RQ-PCR at predefined intervals (at 1-, 2-, 3-, 4.5-, 6-, 9-, and 12-month before and after transplantation). Patients were grouped based on AML-related specific genes, and dynamic changes in MRD results detected by FCM and RQ-PCR after transplantation were analyzed to evaluate the correlation with post-transplant relapse.Results:A total of 218 enrolled patients included 114 males and 106 females, with the median age of 32 years (1-65 years). The median follow-up duration was 218 d (21-1 541 d). Hematologic relapse occurred in 26 patients (12.7%), with a median relapse time of 272 d (83-934 d); 35 patients (15.9%) died, including 15 (6.9%) due to leukemia relapse and 20 (9.2%) due to transplant-related mortality. Predictive markers for relapse included once WT1 positive (WT1+once), twice WT1 positive (WT1+twice), CBFβ::MYH11 fusion genes positive, mixed-lineage leukemia (MLL)-related fusion genes positive, AML1::ETO fusion genes positive, and once FCM positive (FCM+once), twice FCM positive (FCM+twice). The overall consistency rate between FCM and RQ-PCR for MRD detection in AML patients accompanied by monocytic differentiation after transplantation was 75.7% (165/218). The consistency rate of MRD detection results in WT1+once, WT1+ twice, MLL-related fusion gene positive, and NPM1 gene mutation positive with FCM was higher than the average value (>75.7%), while the consistency rate of MRD detection results in AML1::ETO and CBFβ::MYH11 fusion gene positive with FCM was lower than the average value (<75.7%). Notably, persistent low-level positivity without relapse after transplantation occurred in cases with WT1 (15 patients), NPM1 (2 patients), CBFβ::MYH11 (11 patients), or AML1::ETO (2 patients); in contrast, MLL-related fusion genes (particularly MLL::AF6 and MLL::AF9) positive after transplantation indicated relapse in patients. The sensitivity and specificity of RQ-PCR for MRD monitoring varied by genetic markers: WT1+once and WT1+twice (sensitivity: 66.7%, 50.0%; specificity: 84.5%, 91.1%, respectively), AML1::ETO (sensitivity: 100.0%; specificity: 50.0%), CBFβ::MYH11 (sensitivity: 100.0%; specificity: 58.6%), MLL-related fusion genes (sensitivity: 75.0%; specificity: 96.4%), and NPM1 (sensitivity: 75.0%; specificity: 91.7%).Conclusions:The sensitivity and specificity of AML-related genetic markers for recurrence prediction show differences. Discrepancies between RQ-PCR and FCM in MRD detection are notable in AML with monocytic differentiation after transplantation. FCM exhibits relatively lower sensitivity for MRD monitoring in this subtype, while RQ-PCR based on AML-related genes may compensate for FCM limitations.

Objective To investigate the value of integrin subunit αM(ITGAM)and integrin subunit β2(ITGB2)levels in peripheral blood mononuclear cells(PBMC)in the diagnosis and prognosis evaluation for patients with severe acute pancreatitis(SAP)complicated with acute lung injury(ALI).Methods A total of 205 patients with SAP admitted from November 2022 to February 2024 in the hospital were selected,and they were divided into ALI group(103 cases)and non-ALI group(102 cases)according to whether they were com-plicated with ALI.Meanwhile,110 healthy people who underwent the physical examination were selected as the control group.The differences of the levels of ITGAM and ITGB2 in PBMC in different groups were com-pared.Logistic regression was used to analyze the influencing factors for ALI in patients with SAP.The re-ceiver operating characteristic(ROC)curve was used to analyze the diagnostic value of levels of ITGAM and ITGB2 in PBMC for SAP patients complicated with ALI and the predictive value for poor prognosis.Results The levels of ITGAM,ITGB2 in PBMC,and serum amylase and urine amylase levels in ALI group were higher than those in non-ALI group and control group(P＜0.05).Multivariate Logistic regression anal-ysis showed that the increase of ITGAM,ITGB2 and serum amylase levels were risk factors for ALI in pa-tients with SAP(P＜0.05).ROC curve results showed that the area under the curve(AUC)of ITGAM com-bined with ITGB2 in diagnosing ALI in patients with SAP was significantly higher than those of ITGAM and ITGB2 alone(P＜0.05).The levels of ITGAM and ITGB2 in PBMC in the poor prognosis group were higher than those in the good prognosis group(P＜0.05).ROC curve results showed that the AUC of ITGAM com-bined with ITGB2 in predicting poor prognosis in patients with SAP complicated with ALI was significantly higher than those of ITGAM and ITGB2 alone(P＜0.05).Conclusion Increased levels of ITGAM and IT-GB2 in PBMC are risk factors for ALI in patients with SAP.ITGAM combined with ITGB2 has a good predic-tive efficacy for the poor prognosis in patients with SAP complicated with ALI,which has important value in clinical practice and is expected to become potential biomarkers.

Objective To explore the application value of MR MAGiC sequence reconstructed based on deep learning reconstruction(DLR)for localizing epileptogenic focus of intractable epilepsy.Methods Fifty intractable epilepsy patients(epilepsy group)and 20 healthy controls(control group)were retrospectively collected.Brain MR MAGiC sequence was scanned,then traditional reconstruction(inverse Fourier transform)and DLR algorithm were performed to obtain MAGiC and MAGiC DLR images,respectively.The corresponding quantitative parameter maps were generated after post-processing,including T1 mapping,T2 mapping and proton density(PD)mapping.The subjective scores of noise,artifacts,structural clarity and overall quality were compared between two kinds of quantitative parameter images.The asymmetry index(AI)of quantitative parameters(T1,T2 and PD values)between the affected side and the contralateral side in epilepsy group,the contralateral side or the suspected epileptogenic focus in epilepsy group and HC group were calculated.Then epileptogenic focus were localized based on performance of MAGiC and MAGiC DLR corresponding quantitative parameter maps combining obtained AI of quantitative parameter values.According to surgical results,follow-up review,electroencephalogram or PET results,the accuracy of MAGiC and MAGiC DLR images for localizing epileptogenic focus was calculated.Results Compared with MAGiC quantitative parametric maps,noise of MAGiC DLR quantitative parametric maps reduced,while subjective scores of structure clarity and overall quality improved(all P＜0.05).The accuracy of MAGiC and MAGiC DLR images for localizing epileptogenic focus was 82.00％(41/50)and 88.00％(44/50),respectively.Conclusion MR MAGiC sequence based on DLR was beneficial for improving accuracy of localizing epileptogenic focus in intractable epilepsy.

Objective To establish a pediatric rare disease catalog,analyze the current status of therapeutic drugs and their coverage of the medical insurance in China,and propose strategies to enhance drug accessibility.Methods Pediatric rare diseases were identified from China's two national rare disease catalogs combined with the EU Orphanet database,US FDA orphan drug database,and the Diagnosis and Treatment Standards for Rare Diseases in Children.We created a specialized drug catalog for pediatric rare diseases,then analyzed drug types(ATC classification),pricing,and medical insurance coverage using descriptive statistics based on Yaozhi.com drug bidding prices and the 2024 Drug of List National Basic Medical Insurance(NBMIDL).Drug affordability was assessed through annual treatment cost calculations.Results The national catalogs included 151 pediatric rare diseases(72.95%of listed conditions),spanning 13 disease systems.We identified 94 dedicated orphan drugs(by generic name)for these conditions,among which 43 were approved internationally but unavailable in China.The average unit price per package was 6 113.53 yuan.Overall NBMIDL coverage was 68.83%,but drugs priced above 7 000 yuan per unit had only 7.69%coverage.Annual treatment costs reached 4.54 million for laronidase(mucopolysaccharidosis).Conclusions Critical gaps persist in China's pediatric rare disease treatment landscape,including catalog deficiencies,inadequate coverage for high-cost drugs and insufficient domestic innovation.It is recommended to establish a list of orphan drugs for pediatric rare diseases,accelerate the import of foreign drugs and the local innovative drugs through policy incentives,optimizing medical insurance reimbursement mechanisms for pediatric rare disease drugs to comprehensively improve therapeutic accessibility.

Aim Based on coronary CT-fractional flow reserve(CT-FFR)combined with machine learning methods,a nomogram prediction model for coronary in-stent restenosis(ISR)was developed to assess the risk of ISR.Methods Retrospective analysis was performed on patients who underwent re-examination after PCI at our hospital from January 2022 to January 2025.According to the exclusion criteria,a total of 210 patients were enrolled,including 100 cases of ISR and 110 cases of non-ISR.The dataset was randomly divided into training and test sets at a 7∶3 ratio.Af-ter univariate analysis to screen potential predictors,LASSO regression was applied to identify feature variables with non-ze-ro coefficients.Subsequently,three machine learning(ML)algorithms including random forest(RF),support vector machine(SVM),and extreme gradient boosting(XGB)were used to rank the importance of the significant factors.The intersection of the top 10 variables from each algorithm was used as input for bidirectional stepwise multivariate Logistic re-gression.An ISR risk score was then constructed and visualized using a nomogram.Results A total of 14 predictive factors were identified through LASSO regression,including diastolic blood pressure,C-reactive protein,triglycerides(TG),N-terminal pro-brain natriuretic peptide(NT-proBNP),low density lipoprotein cholesterol(LDLC),minimum stent diameter＜3 mm,systolic blood pressure,△CT-FFR,CT-FFR,interleukin-6(IL-6),body mass index,glycosylated hemoglobin(HbA1c),history of hypertension,and high density lipoprotein cholesterol(HDLC).Following stepwise screening using three ML algorithms and Logistic regression,six independent risk factors for ISR were identified:elevated△CT-FFR,IL-6,NT-proBNP,TG and CT-FFR values,and minimum stent diameter＜3 mm.The area under the curve for the training set and test set were 0.995(95％CI:0.989～1.000)and 0.965(95％CI:0.927～1.000),respectively.Decision curve analysis demonstrated high net benefit across threshold probabilities of 0～1.00 in the training set and 0～0.92 in the test set.The nomogram integrating these six predictors exhibited high accuracy and clinical utility.Con-clusion The ISR nomogram prediction model based on LASSO-ML combined with CT-FFR technology has high accuracy and clinical utility for ISR.
