ObjectiveTo explore the effect of the medical-community linkage model on activities of daily living, psychological status and motor function of stroke patients in the community. MethodsA total of 60 stroke patients admitted to two community health service centers and their affiliated stations in Fengtai District, Beijing, from January, 2024 to August, 2025 were enrolled and randomly divided into control group (n = 30) and intervention group (n = 30). The control group received routine medicine, dietary care and rehabilitation management, while the intervention group underwent rehabilitation with the medical-community linkage model, for twelve weeks. They were assessed with modified Barthel Index (MBI), Hamilton Anxiety Scale (HAMA), Hamilton Depression Scale (HAMD) and Fugl-Meyer Assessment (FMA) before and after intervention. ResultsAfter intervention, the MBI, HAMA, HAMD and FMA scores of patients improved in both groups (|t| > 5.599, P < 0.001), and improved more in the intervention group than in the control group (P < 0.05), except MBI. The HAMA and HAMD scores of family members decreased in both groups (|t| > 10.333, P < 0.001), and decreased more in the intervention group than in the control group (t > 5.681, P < 0.001). ConclusionThe medical-community linkage model can further improve the motor function of stroke patients in community, as well as the psychological status of both patients and their family members.

Background: and Purpose Vertebrobasilar fusiform aneurysms (VBFAs) carry substantial morbidity and mortality, but optimal management for unruptured VBFAs remains unclear. We compared the safety and efficacy of conservative management (CM), stent-assisted coiling (SAC), and flow diverters (FDs) in patients with unruptured VBFAs, focusing on long-term prognosis. Methods: This study included data from a nationwide Chinese cohort of patients with vertebrobasilar dissecting aneurysms. Inverse probability of treatment weighting (IPTW) balanced confounders across groups. The primary outcome was poor prognosis (modified Rankin Scale score >2). Secondary outcomes included aneurysm rupture, ischemic stroke, compression symptoms, and VBFA-related deaths. Logistic regression estimated odds ratios (ORs) and 95% confidence intervals (CIs). Subgroup and sensitivity analyses were performed. Results: Among 1,115 patients with unruptured VBFAs, 838 (median age, 54 years; 655 men) were included. After IPTW, baseline characteristics were balanced. Median follow-up was 54 months. FD was associated with a lower risk of poor prognosis than CM (OR, 0.48 [95% CI, 0.30 to 0.77]; p=0.002), with no difference between CM and SAC. FD also reduced aneurysm rupture (OR, 0.20 [95% CI, 0.07 to 0.60]; p=0.004) and compression symptoms (OR, 0.30 [95% CI, 0.13 to 0.68]; p=0.004) versus CM. Time-to-event analyses further revealed significant differences in vertebral artery lesions and Type I–II VBFAs, whereas no significant differences were observed in basilar or vertebrobasilar junction lesions or in Type III–IV VBFAs. Conclusions Compared with CM, FD was associated with improved long-term outcomes in unruptured VBFAs, particularly in vertebral artery lesions and Type I–II VBFAs, although residual confounding cannot be excluded.

Objective To construct an assay for early infection diagnosis of Angiostrongylus cantonensis based on gold nanorod polymerization.Methods Stable gold nanorods were synthesized by the gold seed growth method,and labeled with different concentrations of sulfhydrylated crude and purified antigens of lar-vae and adults of Angiostrongylus cantonensis,and their excretory and secretory antigens,and then scanned the longitudinal surface plasmon resonance(LSPR)of the stable gold nanorods by ultraviolet-visible(UV-Vis)spectrophotometry,and screened for the optimal labeled antigens for the detection of different infection time after infection of rats with Angiostrongylus cantonensis.The displacement changes were screened to se-lect the best labeled antigens for the detection of serum antibodies and positive sera of series of dilution gradi-ents at different infection times(5,7,14,21 d)after infection with Angiostrongylus cantonensis in rats,and at the same time,the enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay(ELISA)was set up for the same test.Kappa test was used to compare the consistency of the two assays.Results Gold nanorods with stable aspect ratio were suc-cessfully prepared.The gold nanorods labeled with 10 μg/mL of adult purified antigen had a maximum LSPR shift of 40 nm,and were able to detect serum antibodies in rats 5 d after mild,moderate and severe infection with Angiostrongylus cantonensis,as well as positive sera at a maximum dilution of 1∶600.The ELISA was able to detect serum antibodies in rats after 14 d of mild infection,and 7 d of moderate and severe infection,as well as positive sera at a maximum dilution of 1∶200.The ELISA detected positive serum antibodies in rats after 14 d of mild infection and 7 d of moderate and severe infection,as well as in rats at a maximum dilution of 1∶200.The Kappa value of the two methods was 0.750(P<0.01),and the results of the two methods had strong consistency.Conclusion A polymerized gold nanorod assay for early and rapid diagnosis of An-giostrongylus cantonensis infection is successfully constructed.

Objective To explore the effect of acyl-CoA synthetase short-chain family member 3(ACSS3)gene on the proliferation of human large cell lung cancer cells(NCI-H460)using CRISPR/Cas 9 gene editing technology.Methods The expression of ACSS3 was detected by Western blot.ACSS3-targeting sgRNAs were designed,and a CRISPR/Cas 9 knockout vector was constructed and transfected into NCI-H460 cells.The transfected cells were selected with puromycin based on vector-carried resistance.ACSS3-knockout monoclonal cell strains were established by limited dilution method and then expanded in culture.Knockout efficiency was confirmed by Western blot.Cell proliferation was assessed using MTT and colony formation assays.Results The expression of ACSS3 was significantly elevated in NCI-H460 cells as compared with human normal lung epithelial cells BEAS-2B(P＜0.05).No ACSS3 protein was detected in the knockout monoclonal strain,indicating successful generation of ACSS3-knockout NCI-H460 cells.Compared with the control cells transfected with empty vector,the proliferation and colo-ny formation ability were inhibited in NCI-H460 cells with ACSS3 knockout(P＜0.05).Conclusions The ACSS3-knockout NCI-H460 cell strain was successfully established,which provides a foundation for further study on the role of ACSS3 in lung cancer.

Objective To investigate the protective effect and regulatory mechanism of ciprofol on Parkinson's disease(PD)rats based on the adenosine monophosphate-activated protein kinase(AMPK)/silent information regulator 1(SIRT1)/peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor gamma coactivator 1α(PGC1α)signaling pathway.Methods Wistar rats were divided into blank control group,model group,ciprofol group,and ciprofol+AMPK inhibitor dorsomorphin group(ciprofol+Dor group),with 10 rats in each group.Except for the blank control group,PD models were estab-lished in the other three groups.Behavioral experiments were used to assess the motor and cognitive functions of rats in each group.Enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay(ELISA)was employed to de-tect the levels of dopamine(DA)and 5-hydroxytryptamine(5-HT)in the rat brain striatum.Immu-nofluorescence staining was conducted to measure the level of tyrosine hydroxylase(TH)in the rat brain substantia nigra.Real-time fluorescence quantitative polymerase chain reaction(RT-qPCR)was applied to detect the relative mRNA expression levels of ULK1,beclin1,LC3,Bcl-2,and Bax in the rat brain striatum.Western blot was used to determine the relative protein expression levels of ULK1,beclin1,Bcl-2,Bax,phosphorylated(p)-AMPK,SIRT1,PGC1α,and the ratio of LC3 Ⅱ to LC3 Ⅰ(LC3 Ⅱ/LC3 Ⅰ)in the rat brain striatum.Results Compared with the blank control group,the motor and cognitive functions of rats in the model group were reduced,the levels of DA and 5-HT in the brain striatum decreased,the fluorescence intensity of TH in the brain substantia nigra weakened,and the relative mRNA expression levels of ULK1,beclin1,LC3,Bcl-2,as well as the relative protein expression levels of ULK1,beclin1,Bcl-2,p-AMPK,SIRT1,PGC1α,and LC3 Ⅱ/LC3 Ⅰ in the brain striatum were reduced.In contrast,the relative mRNA expression level of Bax and the relative protein expression level of Bax increased,with statistically significant differ-ences(P＜0.05).Compared with the model group,the motor and cognitive functions of rats in the ciprofol group were improved,the levels of DA and 5-HT in the brain striatum increased,the fluo-rescence intensity of TH in the brain substantia nigra strengthened,and the relative mRNA expres-sion levels of ULK1,beclin1,LC3,Bcl-2,as well as the relative protein expression levels of ULK1,beclin1,Bcl-2,p-AMPK,SIRT1,PGC1α,and LC3 Ⅱ/LC3 Ⅰ in the brain striatum were elevated.Meanwhile,the relative mRNA expression level of Bax and the relative protein expression level of Bax decreased,with statistically significant differences(P＜0.05).The comparison between the ciprofol+Dor group and the ciprofol group revealed that the AMPK inhibitor dorsomorphin could re-verse the effects of ciprofol(P＜0.05).Conclusion Ciprofol may exert neuroprotective effects for PD rats by promoting autophagy through activating the AMPK/SIRT1/PGC1α signaling pathway.

Objective To investigate the effects and related molecular mechanisms of esket-amine on the proliferation,epithelial-mesenchymal transition(EMT),and stem cell properties of colorectal cancer(CRC)cells.Methods CRC cell line SW480 was cultured with varying concentra-tions of esketamine,and the cells were divided into blank group(0 μmol/L),low-concentration group(1 μmol/L),medium-concentration group(5 μmol/L)and high-concentration group(10 μmol/L).Cell proliferation activity was assessed using the EdU proliferation assay,cell spheroid-forming ability was evaluated via the spheroid formation assay,cell migration capacity was measured using the scratch assay,cell invasion ability was determined through the transwell assay,and the expression levels of tumor stem cell property markers[NANOG homeobox(NANOG),SRY-box transcription fac-tor(SOX)2,SOX4],the neurogenic locus Notch homolog protein 1(Notch1)receptor and the Notch1 intracellular domain(Notch1 ICD)were detected by western blot.A recovery test was con-ducted by adding the Notch1 receptor agonist Jagged1 to the culture groups with different concentra-tions of esketamine.Results Compared with the blank group,esketamine significantly inhibited the proliferation activity,spheroid-forming ability,migration ability,and invasion ability of CRC cells in a concentration-dependent manner.The intracellular expression levels of SOX2,SOX4,NANOG,and Notch1 ICD proteins were significantly decreased,while the expression level of the Notch1 recep-tor was significantly increased in the esketamine groups(P＜0.05).After the addition of Jagged1,the inhibitory effects of esketamine on the proliferation activity,metastatic ability,and stem cell properties of CRC cells were alleviated.Conclusion Esketamine inhibits CRC cell proliferation,metastasis,EMT,and stem cell properties by reducing the activation level of the Notch1 receptor,demonstrating a potential for clinical anti-tumor applications.

Body weight abnormalities, including overweight, obesity, and underweight, have become a dual public health challenge in Chinese adults: overweight and obesity lead to a variety of chronic complications, while underweight increases the risks of malnutrition, sarcopenia, and organ dysfunction. To systematically address these issues, multidisciplinary experts in endocrinology, sports science, nutrition, and psychiatry from various regions have held multiple weight management seminars. Based on the latest epidemiological data and clinical evidence, they expanded the guideline to include assessment and intervention strategies for underweight, in addition to the core content of obesity management. This guideline outlines the etiological mechanisms, evaluation methods, and multidimensional management strategies for overweight and obesity, covering key areas such as diagnosis and assessment, medical nutrition therapy, exercise prescription, pharmacological intervention, and psychological support. It is intended to provide a scientific and standardized approach to weight management across the adult population, aiming to curb the rising prevalence of obesity, mitigate complications associated with abnormal body weight, and improve nutritional status and overall quality of life.

Objective:To investigate the efficacy and safety of transurethral incision for the treatment of ureterocele in infants.Methods:A retrospective analysis of 28 cases of ureterocele admitted from March 2012 to May 2023 were reviewed, all of which were less than 1 year old, 16 male and 12 female, with an average age of(5.7±3.5)months. The ureterocele was located on the left side in 8 cases, on the right side in 15 cases, and bilaterally in 5 cases. There were 12 cases of single system ureterocele, of which 7 cases were unilateral and 5 cases were bilateral. Duplex system ureterocele was observed in 16 cases, all of which were unilateral. Clinical manifestations: urinary tract infection in 13 cases, 11 cases of ureterocele or hydronephrosis and ureteral dilation were found during antenatal examination, and 4 cases of ureterocele were found after birth. Urological ultrasound, intravenous pyelography(IVP) and voiding cystourethrography(VCUG) were performed in all children, and 17 cases underwent magnetic resonance urolography (MRU), and confirm the diagnosis of ureterocele preoperatively. All of the cases were performed the transurethral incision.The ureterocele was punctured and incised 1-2 mm at the base of the bulge, and 2-4 points were punctured according to the bulge atrophy. Bilateral ureteroceles were punctured and incised simultaneously. Postoperative urine routine test, urinary tract color ultrasound and VCUG were performed to determine if there is urinary tract infection, hydronephrosis, ureteral dilation and bulging, and whether a second surgery is needed.Results:All operations were conducted successfully. The intraoperative bleeding was less than 3 ml and no intraoperative complications. The operative time was (28.4±10.3) min. The median postoperative follow-up was 34 (32, 36) months. Six cases underwent postoperative VCUG examination. Eleven children were recovered well with single systemic ureterocele. One child developed grade Ⅳ vesicoureteral reflux(VUR)and combined with bladder diverticulum, and ureterocele underwent open diverticulotomy and ureteral reimplantation six months after surgery. Nine children were recovered well with duplex systemic ureterocele. Six cases of children developed infection, of which 2 cases had an infection once within one month after TUI, and the other four cases still had intermittent infections after six months and VCUG was performed, and one case showed grade Ⅲ VUR of the lower ureter, which was observed conservatively, while the other three cases had enlarged cysts but no VUR, and upper heminephrectomy was performed, and the patients recovered well after surgery. Except for these 6 exceptions, in another case, after ten years of follow-up, the ureterocele became larger but no VUR, and the results were good after a second transurethral incision. There was no significant difference in the postoperative infections, new VUR cases, and secondary surgeries between the two groups.Conclusions:Transurethral incision has good surgical effect on children with single system ureterocele and duplex system ureterocele, and has advantages of easy operation, less trauma, safety and effectiveness, and few complications. It deserves to be recommended as the treatment of choice, especially for infants and young children.

Objective:To retrospectively analyze the changes in the proportion of refined lymphocyte subsets in peripheral blood of patients with Graves disease (GD), and their correlation with the clinical characteristics and efficacy of GD, and to explore the immunological pathogenesis of Graves disease for seeking new therapeutic targets.Methods:A total of 97 newly diagnosed GD patients (GD group), 27 patients after treatment (treatment group), and 31 healthy individuals (control group) who visited the Fifth Medical Center of the PLA General Hospital from 2018 to 2021 were included in this study. The data of refined lymphocyte subsets, thyroid function, blood routine and clinical treatment of the three groups were compared and analyzed. The t-test and rank sum test were used to compare the proportions of lymphocyte subsets among different groups, and Pearson correlation analysis was used to analyze the correlation between the proportions of lymphocyte subsets and thyroid function indicators.Results:The proportion of B cells in GD group was higher than that in the control group [16.2%(11.8%, 21.8%) vs 10.2%(8.1%,13.6%)], while the proportion of natural killer (NK) cells was lower [9.4%(4.9%, 13.6%) vs 14.6%(12.1%,18.8%)], and the differences were statistically significant ( P<0.05). Abnormal T cell differentiation: the proportions of functional cells, including activated T cells, memory T cells, clustering antigen(CD)4+memory T cells, Th1 cells, and Tc1 cells, were lower than that in the control group [3.2%(2.1%, 5.7%) vs 5.8%(3.0%, 9.3%), P<0.05; 36.7% (29.9%, 48.1%) vs 48.0%(39.2%,57.7%), P<0.05; 23.1%(17.4%, 30.1%) vs 28.9%(23.3%,34.6%), P<0.05; 16.4% (11.8%, 23.6%) vs 24.3%(16.9%,28.5%), P<0.05; 28.5% (14.7%, 39.2%) vs 46.3%(21.6%,69.2%), P<0.05]. The proportion of activated T cells in the treatment group was higher than that in the GD group [6.5% (4.6%, 13.6%) vs 3.2% (2.1%, 5.7%), P<0.05]. The total triiodothyronine results showed positive correlations with B cells ( r=0.356, P<0.01) and negative correlations with NK cells ( r=?0.416, P<0.01), while the total thyroxine values showed negative correlations with NK cells and activated T cells ( r=?0.318,?0.335; P<0.01). Thyroid stimulating hormone and CD8+initial T cells were positively correlated ( r=0.382, P<0.01). The proportion of B cells, cytotoxic T cells and suppressor T cells in CD8+cells of patients with complications [such as Graves orbitopathy (GO), thyroid toxic cardiomyopathy, etc.] was significantly different from that of the simple GD patients [18.3% (14.1%, 27.1%) vs 14.6% (10.8%, 21.4%), Z=2.54, P<0.05; 73.4%(65.6%,83.6%)vs 65.0%(50.3%,79.3%), Z=2.93, P<0.05; 26.6%(16.4%, 37.5%)vs 35.0%(20.7%,49.7%), Z=?2.74, P<0.05]. The proportion of suppressor T cells in GO patients was lower than that in non-GO patients [6.1% (3.4%, 8.1%) vs 8.5% (4.9%, 13.6%), Z=?3.20 P<0.05]. Conclusion:There are significant alterations in the circulating immune cells of GD patients, suggesting that immunological abnormalities play a crucial role in the onset and progression of the disease.

OBJECTIVE To investigate the current status of water management for terminal rinsing of digestive en-doscope in medical institutions in Fujian Province,and to provide reference for improving regional quality control standards.METHODS An electronic questionnaire survey was conducted from Jul.2024 to Aug.2024 through convenient sampling in secondary and above hospitals of 9 prefecture-level cities in Fujian Province.The survey covered topics such as water treatment system configuration,maintenance and water quality monitoring.RESULTS A total of 108 questionnaires were distributed and 104 valid questionnaires were collected,with an effec-tive response rate of 96.30％.The survey revealed that 78.85％(82/104)of the hospitals adopted separate water supply for each department,and 82.69％used purified water for terminal rinsing.Only 19.23％installed the final filter membrane at the water outlet.In addition,66.35％of the hospitals did not specify the service life of the wa-ter supply pipeline,and the pipeline disinfection implementation rate was 60.58％,but 31.75％of them had ir-regular disinfection frequencies,with chlorine-based disinfectants(50.79％)and peracetic acid(34.92％)being the main disinfectants.The regular conductivity monitoring rate was 47.12％,and the microbial monitoring cov-erage rate reached 90.38％,with the monitoring frequency mainly being once every quarter(60.64％),but only 20.21％used R2A medium,and 12.77％adopted the membrane filtration method for inoculation.Tertiary hospi-tals were superior to secondary hospitals in terms of film membrane pore size pass rate(87.50％vs.56.86％),pipeline disinfection implementation rate(71.43％vs.50.91％)and advanced detection method application(P＜0.05).CONCLUSIONS There are issues in the management of water used for terminal rinsing of digestive endo-scopes in Fujian Province,including non-standard equipment maintenance,inconsistent monitoring methods and insufficient awareness among management personnel.It is recommended to enhance management quality by optimizing the water treatment system setup,establishing standardized monitoring procedures and strengthening professional training for personnel.
