This study aims to investigate the changes in blood biochemical indicators of tongue roll-ing(TR)behavior in cattle and their correlation with changes in oral microbiota,laying a founda-tion for further exploring the relationship between animal oral microbiota,biochemical indicators,and behavioral changes.It also provides theoretical basis for preventing and treating TR behavior through regulating oral microbiota.This study intends to analyze and compare the blood biochemi-cal indicators and changes in oral microbiota of cattle with TR behavior and healthy cattle without TR behavior(healthy control,H),in order to explore the blood biochemical indicators of TR cattle and their correlation with changes in oral microbiota.Blood samples from the caudal vein of cattle in each group were collected for the detection of blood biochemical indicators and stress-related hormone indicators.Oral swabs from cattle in each group were collected for 16S rRNA gene se-quencing to analyze the composition,structure,and functional changes of their oral microbiota.The results of blood biochemical indicators in H and TR groups showed that the concentrations of al-bumin(ALB),aspartate aminotransferase(AST),calcium ion(Ca2+),and cortisol in TR group were significantly higher than those in H group(P＜0.05).There were significant differences in beta diversity of oral microbiota between TR and H groups(P＜0.05).At the genus level,the rela-tive abundances of Pseudomonas,Enterobacter,Xanthomonas,and other genera in the oral micro-biota of TR group were significantly higher than those in H group(P＜0.05).However,the rela-tive abundances of Tessaracoccus,Turicibacter,Monoglobus,Dietzia,Bifidobacterium,and other genera in the oral microbiota of TR group were significantly lower than those in H group(P＜0.05).In the KEGG metabolic pathway at the third level,the relative abundances of thiamine me-tabolism,lipoate metabolism,cysteine and methionine metabolism in the oral microbiota of TR group were significantly lower than those in H group(P＜0.05).Spearman correlation analysis showed that ALB and AST were significantly positively correlated with the relative abundances of Pseudomonas and Stenotrophomonas.Therelative abundances of Pseudomonas,Stenotrophomonas,and Sphingomonas were significantly positively correlated with fatty acid metabolism,phosphate and phosphonate metabolism,and lipoate metabolism.ALB was significantly positively correlated with inositol phosphate metabolism and phosphate and phosphonate metabolism.The study found that there were significant differences in blood biochemical indicators and oral microbiota between TR and H groups.In addition,there is a certain correlation between the composition,structure,and function of oral microbiota and the biochemical function of the host.This indicates that TR behav-ior may be associated with changes in the biochemical indicators of the host and the composition,structure,and function of oral microbiota.

Rare diseases pose significant diagnostic and therapeutic challenges,carrying a high disease burden,their management critically reflects a nation's public health resilience.Currently,China faces key challenges such as scarce treatments,fragmented services,and low drug accessibility in rare disease care,which urgently require systemic solutions.Digital-intelligent technology as a key breakthrough are expected to resolve the challenges in this field.Although its application in the field of rare diseases is gradually expanding,there is a lack of systematic compilation of studies to elucidate how to precisely enhance the precision,synergy and sustainability of diagnosis and treatment.The key challenges in rare disease care concentrate in four areas:inefficiency in prenatal screening,uneven distribution of medical resources,low efficiency in social organization collaboration,and ineffective information dissemination.The"4C"strategy,based on digital-intelligent technology,can address these issues:①coordination,boost prenatal screening awareness and capacity via digital-intelligent platforms to strengthen prevention;②cooperation,deepen collaboration within specialist networks,empowering institutions to enhance diagnostic capacity;③co-creation,empower support organizations to optimize resources,efficiency;④cognition,minimize information dissipation through efficient platforms,improving patient and family quality of life.This establishes an integrated digital-intelligent rare disease model encompassing"screening-diagnosis-treatment-care".

Objective:To investigate the association between blood selenium levels and sex hormones in Chinese men aged 18-79 years.Methods:Data were derived from the China National Human Biomonitoring survey conducted in 2017-2018, with a final sample size of 5 414 men. General demographic characteristics, behavioral habits, and dietary frequency were collected through questionnaires and physical examinations. Fasting blood samples were collected to measure blood lead, serum testosterone, and estradiol levels. Complex sampling linear regression models were used to analyze the associations between blood selenium levels and testosterone, estradiol, and the testosterone/estradiol ratio, adjusting for confounding factors including age, education level, marital status, smoking status, alcohol consumption, seafood intake, soy product intake, protein supplement intake, BMI, and diabetes status.Results:The mean age of the 5 414 participants was (46.85±27.91) years; 4 774 (91.65%) were of Han ethnicity and 4 505 (86.68%) were married. The median ( Q1, Q3) blood selenium concentration in men was 97.80 (80.64, 116.99) μg/L. After adjusting for confounding factors, the complex sampling linear regression model revealed negative associations between blood selenium levels and both testosterone levels and the testosterone/estradiol ratio, with a significant linear trend ( Ptrend<0.05). Compared with the Q1 group, the β (95% CI) values for testosterone in the Q2, Q3, and Q4 groups were -0.02 (-0.06 to 0.02), -0.03 (-0.08 to 0.01), and -0.06 (-0.09 to -0.02), respectively. Similarly, the β (95% CI) values for the testosterone/estradiol ratio in the Q2, Q3, and Q4 groups were -0.01 (-0.03 to 0.02), -0.01 (-0.04 to 0.04), and -0.03 (-0.06 to -0.01), respectively. Subgroup analysis indicated stronger associations between blood selenium levels and testosterone/estradiol levels in non-smoking and obese men (BMI≥28 kg/m2). Conclusion:Blood selenium levels are negatively associated with testosterone levels and the testosterone/estradiol ratio in Chinese adult males.

Objective To investigate the influence of Salvia miltiorrhiza polyphenolate injection combined with tirofiban on the curative effect,macrophage migration inhibitory factor(MIF)level and hemorheology in patients with acute cerebral infarction(ACI).Methods A total of 116 patients with ACI were divided into the western medicine group(treated with tirofiban)and the combined group(treated with Salvia miltiorrhiza polyphenolate injection combined with tirofiban)by random number table method,with 58 cases in each group.Neurological deficit score(NIHSS)reduction was calculated,and the therapeutic effect was evaluated.Serum MIF,interleukin(IL)-6 and IL-1β levels were detected by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay(ELISA)before and after treatment.Changes of hemorheological indexes(whole blood viscosity,whole blood low tangential viscosity and fibrinogen)of ACI patients were detected by SA-6600 automatic hemorheometer before and after treatment.The occurrence of adverse reactions during treatment was recorded.The modified Rankin Scale(mRS)was used to evaluate the clinical outcome at 90 days of onset,and the Barthel index was used to evaluate the living ability of the patients before and after treatment.Results The total clinical effective rate of ACI patients was higher in the combined group than that in the western medicine group(89.66%vs.74.14%,P＜0.05).After treatment,the levels of MIF,whole blood viscosity,whole blood low shear viscosity,fibrinogen,IL-6 and IL-1β were lower in 2 groups than those before treatment,and those were lower in the combined group than those in the western medicine group(P＜0.05).There was no significant difference in the total incidence of adverse reactions between the two groups(P＞0.05).The Barthel index was higher after treatment in the two groups,and which was higher in the combined group than that of the western medicine group(P＜0.05).The good outcome rate was higher in the combination group than that of the western medicine group(51.72%vs.32.76%,P＜0.05).Conclusion Salvia miltiorrhiza polyphenolate injection combined with tirofiban has a obvious effect for ACI patients,which can reduce serum levels of MIF and inflammatory factors,improve hemorheology indicators and has a high safety.
