ObjectiveTo investigate the relationship between the non-fasting triglyceride and glucose (TyG) index and hyperglycemia in pregnancy during the third trimester in high altitudes. MethodsThis study selected clinical and laboratory data of 774 Tibetan singleton pregnant women who delivered at Chaya People's Hospital of Qamdo city in Xizang autonomous region, from January 2023 to April 2025. The non-fasting TyG index was calculated from non-fasting triglyceride (TG) and random plasma glucose (PG). Based on the tertiles of the non-fasting TyG index values, the individuals were split into three groups (corresponding to non-fasting TyG index of 8.89 and 9.21, respectively). The baseline clinical characteristics, lipid levels and the occurrence of developing hyperglycemia in pregnancy were compared among the three groups. Statistical analyses were performed using ANOVA, Kruskal-Wallis H test, Chi-square test, or Fisher exact test and the relationship between the non-fasting TyG index and hyperglycemia in pregnancy were examined using multivariate logistic regression models and curve fitting. ResultsA total of 774 Tibetan singleton pregnant women were included, with a average age of 27.3 ± 6.1 years, a pre-delivery body mass index (Pre-BMI) of (25.2±2.3)kg/m2 , a proportion of 26.7% (207/774) primigravid women, the mean non-fasting TyG index was 9.1 ± 0.4。Thirty pregnant women were diagnosed with hyperglycemia in pregnancy, with a detection rate of 3.9% (30/774). Statistically significant differences in serum total cholesterol (TC), TG, low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C) and high-density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL-C) levels were identified when comparing different non-fasting TyG groups (all P values <0.05). Subsequent trend test analysis indicated that the levels of TC, TG, LDL-C, and PG gradually increased with elevated the non-fasting TyG index ( Ftrend TC=95.61, P<0.001; Ftrend TG=1 051.91, P<0.001; Ftrend LDL-C = 97.20, P < 0.001; Ftrend TG=195.20; P<0.001). After adjustment for maternal age, pre-delivery BMI, altitude, TC, LDL-C, and HDL-C, multivariate Logistic regression models revealed independent positive associations between non-fasting TyG index and hyperglycemia in pregnancy (Model 1: OR=2.72, 95% CI: 1.13-6.53, P=0.026; Model 2: OR=2.56, 95% CI: 1.01-6.50, P=0.048; Model 3: OR=2.72, 95% CI: 1.06-6.97, P=0.037; Model 4: OR=4.02, 95% CI: 1.42-11.40, P=0.009) and the incident of hyperglycemia in pregnancy showed an increasing tendency as increasing with the non-fasting TyG index, however, this association did not statistical significance (P trend >0.05). Curve fitting by restricted cubic splines (RCS) were used to assess linearity between non-fasting TyG and hyperglycemia in pregnancy, and there was a linear dose-response relationship between non-fasting TyG and hyperglycemia in pregnancy (P for non-linear = 0.515). ConclusionNon-fasting TyG index in the third trimester is a risk factor for hyperglycemia in pregnancy among the Tibetan singleton pregnant women at high altitudes and there was a possible linear dose-response relationship between the non-fasting TyG index and hyperglycemia in pregnancy.

Objective This study investigated the epidemic characteristics and spatio-temporal dynamics of hemorrhagic fever with renal syndrome (HFRS) in Qingdao City,China. Methods Information was collected on HFRS cases in Qingdao City from 2010 to 2022. Descriptive epidemiologic,seasonal decomposition,spatial autocorrelation,and spatio-temporal cluster analyses were performed. Results A total of 2,220 patients with HFRS were reported over the study period,with an average annual incidence of 1.89/100,000 and a case fatality rate of 2.52%. The male:female ratio was 2.8:1. 75.3% of patients were aged between 16 and 60 years old,75.3% of patients were farmers,and 11.6% had both "three red" and "three pain" symptoms. The HFRS epidemic showed two-peak seasonality:the primary fall-winter peak and the minor spring peak. The HFRS epidemic presented highly spatially heterogeneous,street/township-level hot spots that were mostly distributed in Huangdao,Pingdu,and Jiaozhou. The spatio-temporal cluster analysis revealed three cluster areas in Qingdao City that were located in the south of Huangdao District during the fall-winter peak. Conclusion The distribution of HFRS in Qingdao exhibited periodic,seasonal,and regional characteristics,with high spatial clustering heterogeneity. The typical symptoms of "three red" and"three pain" in patients with HFRS were not obvious.

ObjectiveTo observe the clinical effectiveness and safety of Xuandi Ziyin Mixture (玄地滋阴合剂) for central precocious puberty (CPP) in girls with syndrome of yin deficiency and fire exuberance, and to analyse the effect of body mass index (BMI) on the effectiveness. MethodsA total of 236 girls with CPP of yin deficiency and fire exuberance syndrome were included, and all of them were given Xuandi Ziyin Mixture, 30 ml each time, twice a day, for a total treatment period of 6 months. Before and after treatment, children's weight, height and bone age were measured, BMI and BMI Z-score (BMI Z) and the difference between bone age and actual age were calculated; ultrasound was used to detect uterine and ovarian sizes, and to calculate uterine volume (Vuterus), bilateral ovarian volume (Vleft ovary, Vright ovary), and bilateral maximal follicle diameters (rleft follicle and rright follicle); and serum sex hormones were measured, including follicle-stimulating hormone (FSH), luteinising hormone (LH), prolactin (PRL), estradiol (E2), and testosterone (T), and were scored for traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) syndrome. Multiple linear regression was used to analyse the influence factors of the difference between bone age and actual age, and changes in uterine volume. The children were divided into the normal weight group and the overweight/obesity group according to baseline BMI, and the bone age, the difference between bone age and actual age, Vuterus and BMI Z scores before and after treatment were compared between the two groups. ResultsFinally, 199 children entered the statistical analysis. Compared with pre-treatment, the bone age, BMI and BMI Z scores of the children increased after treatment, and the difference between bone age and actual age, TCM syndrome scores, Vuterus, Vleft ovary, Vright ovary, rleft follicle and rright follicle decreased; and the levels of serum FSH, LH, E2, and T significantly decreased (P<0.05 or P<0.01). The difference between bone age and actual age was negatively correlated with LH and Vuterus (P<0.05), and changes in uterine volume were positively correlated with LH (P<0.01). Comparing between the groups before and after treatment, the bone age, difference between bone age and actual age, and BMI Z scores of children in the normal weight group (100 cases) were significantly smaller than those in the overweight/obesity group (99 cases) (P<0.01). Compared with pre-treatment, the bone age of the children in both groups increased, but the difference between bone age and actual age and Vuterus were significantly smaller (P<0.01). Further comparison of Δ bone age and actual age difference and ΔVuterus (Δ = post-treatment value

Allergic conjunctivitis is the most common type of allergic eye disease, and the incidence in children and adolescents is increasing year by year. Drug therapy can only relieve some symptoms and only in a short period, while allergen immunotherapy is currently a therapy that can significantly improve the symptoms of chronic allergy and the course of the disease. This method has been used abroad for many years but has yet to be reported in China. The author reviews the effective mechanism and clinical efficiency of allergen immunotherapy and provides a reference for the further clinical application in China.
