Objective To explore the association between different levels of fluoride exposure and dyslipidemia in elderly people, and to analyze the influencing factors and their interactions. Methods A total of 1 143 elderly people over 60 years old were randomly selected from historical high water fluorosis areas and control areas in Tianjin. Logistic regression model and classification tree model were used to analyze the influencing factors of dyslipidemia, and to analyze the interaction between high fluoride exposure and relevant influencing factors on dyslipidemia. Results The prevalence of elevated low density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C) was 5.69% (65/1 143). There was a significant difference in the prevalence of high LDL-C in different fluoride-exposed areas (2 = 0.092，P = 0.762). Multivariate logistic analysis showed that high fluoride exposure (OR=2.306，95%CI：1.185-4.491) and abdominal obesity (OR=2.274，95%CI：1.299-3.978) were risk factors for high LDL-C, while type B personality (OR=0.529，95%CI：0.308-0.908) was a protective factor for high LDL-C. The results of classification tree model showed that abdominal obesity contributed the most to the prevalence of high LDL-C in the elderly, followed by high fluoride exposure and hyperglycemia. There was a significant multiplicative interaction between high fluoride exposure and abdominal obesity on dyslipidemia (OR=5.191,95%CI：1.609-16.745，P=0.006). Conclusion High fluoride exposure may increase the risk of high LDL-C, and there is a multiplicative interaction between high fluoride exposure and abdominal obesity on dyslipidemia.

Objective: To understand the dose response relationship between urinary fluoride and dental fluorosis among children from drinking water borne endemic fluorosis areas in Tianjin, so as to provide a scientific basis for assessing fluoride exposure risk among children from endemic areas and establishing reference values for urinary fluoride. Methods: From January to December 2024, 83 endemic villages were selected in Tianjin. A total of 2 382 children aged 8-12 years from these villages underwent dental fluorosis examination, along with water fluoride and urinary fluoride testing. Additionally, data from areas where the drinking water fluorosis control target was achieved for more than 12 years (10 villages, 50 people per village) were included as controls. A restricted cubic spline model was used to analyze the relationship between urinary fluoride levels and dental fluorosis prevalence, and benchmark dose (BMD) and benchmark dose lower bound (BMDL), as well as reference dose (RfD), were calculated using the benchmark dose method. Results: The prevalence rates of dental fluorosis among children in drinking water borne endemic fluorosis areas and areas of normal fluoride content in water in Tianjin were 10.58%, 7.60%, with a geometric mean urinary fluoride level of 0.72 and 0.60 mg/L,respectively. There were statistically significant differences in both dental fluorosis prevalence and geometric mean urinary fluoride levels between the drinking water borne endemic fluorosis areas group and the areas of normal fluoride content in water ( χ 2/Z = 4.05 , -7.31, both P <0.05). Across different periods of water source improvement, there were statistically significant differences in overall population, male, and female dental fluorosis prevalence rates and geometric mean urinary fluoride levels ( χ 2/H =44.95, 23.96, 21.05; 168.39, 63.93, 107.50, all P <0.01). Significant differences were also observed across age groups among children from drinking water borne endemic fluorosis areas in terms of dental fluorosis prevalence and geometric mean urinary fluoride levels ( χ 2/H =32.14, 79.73, both P <0.01). The results of the restricted cubic spline model showed that the risk of dental fluorosis in different sex, age and overall children in the drinking water borne endemic fluorosis areas increased significantly with rising urinary fluoride concentration(all P-general trend <0.05). The BMD value for the drinking water borne endemic fluorosis areas was 1.72 mg/L, the BMDL was 1.31 mg/L, and the RfD was 1.31 mg/L. Conclusions The prevalence of dental fluorosis among children in the drinking water borne endemic fluorosis areas in Tianjin has been effectively controlled, but it is still higher than that in the areas of normal fluoride content in water. Moreover, urinary fluoride levels and dental fluorosis prevalence among children from drinking water borne endemic fluorosis areas show a clear dose response relationship.

To determine the efficacy and safety of selinexor combined with venetoclax (VEN) and azactitidine (AZA) for patients with relapsed and/or refractory acute myeloid leukemia (R/R AML) . Twelve patients with R/R AML treated with selinexor plus VEN and AZA in the Affiliated Cancer Hospital of Zhengzhou University from May 2022 to May 2023 were included. Their clinical data were retrospectively analyzed. Among the 12 R/R AML patients, 5 (41.7%) achieved complete remission (CR) , 1 (8.3%) achieved CR with incomplete hematological recovery, and 5 (41.7%) achieved partial remission. The median time to reach CR was 28 (16-59) days. The median PFS was 61 (15-300) days. The main adverse event of the regimen was hematological toxicity. No chemotherapy-related deaths were observed. The combination of selinexor plus VEN and AZA is an effective treatment for R/R AML patients.

Objective To investigate the status and the influencing factors of thyroid volume of children aged 8-10 years in Tianjin. Methods Among the 1-2 primary schools were randomly selected from 12 districts in Tianjin. A total of 1 090 children were selected by class cluster sampling method (half male and half female, with a balanced age distribution). A questionnaire survey was conducted. Children’s height, weight and thyroid volume were measured, and their salt iodine content and urinary iodine content were detected. Results I n this study, the median urinary iodine in children was 161.35 µg/L, the mean thyroid volume was 2.56 mL, and the goiter rate was 3.58%. Univariate analysis showed that age, BSA, salt iodine content, urinary iodine content, eating habits, food taste, eating lunch at school, father's work, anxiety and depression, pressure, and different regional grouping were the influencing factors of thyroid volume (P<0.05). Multivariate linear regression showed that BSA, age, food taste, and urinary iodine content had significant independent effects on thyroid volume (P<0.05). Conclusion In Tianjin, the iodine nutrition level of children aged 8-10 years is at an appropriate level. When evaluating the thyroid volume of children, in addition to age factors, other factors such as physical development level and iodine intake should also be considered.

Objective This study aimed to explore the effect of the combined Danzhi Jiangtang Capsule with dapagliflozin on the blood lipid profile and related inflammatory markers in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus with peripheral vascular disease. Methods 72 patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus with peripheral vascular disease who met the inclusion criteria were admitted to the Department of Endocrinology,The First Affiliated Hospital of Anhui University of Chinese Medicine,from April 2021 to April 2023. The patients were assigned to the experimental group and the control group using the random number table method (36 cases in each group). The control group was treated with dapagliflozin in addition to standard treatment,while the experimental group received the Danzhi Jiangtang Capsule for 12 weeks. Clinical efficacy,glucose and lipid metabolism indicators,hypersensitive C-reactive protein (hs-CRP),body mass index (BMI) levels,and traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) syndrome scores were observed pre-and post-treatment.Results In post-treatment,the clinical efficacy was higher in the experimental group than in the control group. Significant reductions in fasting blood glucose (FPG),2 h postprandial glucose (2 hPG),triglycerides (TG),total cholesterol (TC),low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C),hs-CRP,BMI,and increased high-density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL-C) were observed. Scores for TCM syndrome and individual items also decreased (P<0.05). Comparisons within the groups for pre-and post-treatment showed reductions in FPG,2 hPG,TG,TC,LDL-C,hs-CRP,and an increase in HDL-C,along with a decrease in total scores of TCM syndrome (P<0.05). Conclusion The Danzhi Jiangtang Capsule combined with dapagliflozin in the treatment of type 2 diabetes mellitus with peripheral vascular disease can regulate the blood lipid profile,reduce inflammatory factors,and improve patient's symptoms. Integrated traditional Chinese and Western medicine treatment are more conducive to controlling the disease,and TCM can be used in clinical practice as a combination treatment.

Objective Constructing a risk prediction model of IgA nephropathy proteinuria treated by traditional Chinese medicine based on random survival forest model,Screening prognostic risk factors of IgA nephropathy proteinuria.Methods Collecting retrospectively clinical data of 129 cases diagnosed with IgA nephropathy,randomly divided them into training set(60%)and test set(40%).The risk prediction model of IgA nephropathy proteinuria was constructed in the training set with the random survival forest model,and the prognostic risk factors were screened by VIMP method.The accuracy of risk prediction model was validated in the test set with time-dependent ROC curve(tdROC).Results According to the result of VIMP,the prognostic risk factors for IgA nephropathy proteinuria are in the order of eGFR,hypertension,traditional Chinese medicine,24 hUPRO>1 g,genomo sclerosis ratio,Lee grading,fat,hyperlipidemia,hypertrophymia,hyparmane ledmia,Anemia,age and gender.The eGFR was negatively and non-linearly associated with the risk rate of developing persistent proteinuria.Glomerulosclerosis ratio greater than 0.3 is approximately linearly and positively associated with the risk rate of persistent proteinuria.Conclusion Random survival forest model has good predictive performance in the risk prediction model of IgA nephropathy proteinuria treated by traditional Chinese medicine.This risk model can determine the result of IgA nephropathy treated by traditional Chinese medicine,and which is helpful for clinical follow-up monitoring and formulation of individualized treatment plans.

Objective:To analyze the influencing factors of dental fluorosis of children in the drinking-water-borne endemic fluorosis (referred to as drinking-water-borne fluorosis) areas with qualified drinking water.Methods:In 2020 and 2021, the cluster sampling method was used to select the children aged 8 to 12 years old from the drinking-water-borne fluorisis areas with qualified drinking water in Tianjin City for water and urine fluoride detection, dental fluorosis examination and questionnaire survey, and logistic regression and classification tree model were used to analyze the influencing factors of dental fluorosis in children.Results:A total of 3 795 cases children aged 8 to 12 years old were investigated, and 1 001 cases of dental fluorosis were detected, and the detection rate of dental fluorosis was 26.38% (1 001/3 795). The results of logistic analysis showed that age [odds ratio ( OR) = 1.193, 95% confidence interval ( CI): 1.115 - 1.277], high urinary fluoride (1.84 - 19.40 mg/L, OR = 1.510, 95% CI: 1.169 - 1.952) and the number of permanent residents at home ≥6 ( OR = 1.377, 95% CI: 1.090 - 1.739) were risk factors of dental fluorosis in children; and the mother's with higher education level (college degree or above, OR = 0.664, 95% CI: 0.441 - 0.999), the years of water improvement ≥5 years (5 - < 10 years, OR = 0.193, 95% CI: 0.157 - 0.238; ≥10 years, OR = 0.254, 95% CI: 0.193 - 0.333) were protective factors of dental fluorosis in children. The results of classification tree model analysis showed that the years of water improvement contributed the most to the prevalence of dental fluorosis among children in the drinking-water-borne fluorisis areas with qualified drinking water, followed by age, number of permanent residents at home and urinary fluoride. The area under the receiver operating characteristic curve (AUC) of logistic regression model and classification tree model were 0.730 (95% CI: 0.711 - 0.748) and 0.721 (95% CI: 0.702 - 0.739), respectively, with good fitting effect. Conclusion:The detection rate of children's dental fluorosis in the drinking-water-borne fluorosis areas with qualified drinking water is mainly related to the years of water improvement, age, the number of permanent residents at home and urinary fluoride.

Objective: To examine the correlation between frailty and lifestyle factors among middle-aged and elderly populations, so as to provide insights into the management of frailty among middle-aged and elderly populations. Methods : Middle-aged and elderly residents at ages of 45 ot 69 years were recruited using the convenient sampling method from seven townships in Changxing County of Zhejiang Province from 2019 to 2020. The demographic characteristics and lifestyle factors were collected using questionnaires, and the frailty was measured using the Chinese version of Tilburg Frailty Indicator ( TFI ). Factors affecting frailty were identified among middle-aged and elderly populations using the multivariable logistic regression model. Results: A total of 7 170 residents were surveyed, including 2 780 males ( 38.77% ) and 4 390 females ( 61.23% ), which had a median age of 56 (interquartile range, 10) years. The median frailty score was 2 (interquartile range, 3 ) among the study subjects, and the median frailty score was 2 ( interquartile range, 2 ) among residents at ages of 45 to 59 years, and 2 (interquartile range, 3) among residents at ages of 60 to 69 years. The overall detection of frailty was 16.07%, and the detection of frailty was 13.52% among subjects at ages of 45 to 59 years and 21.01% among subjects at ages of 60 to 69 years. Multivariable logistic regression analysis identified physical activity ( OR=0.826, 95%CI: 0.719-0.949 ) and sleep quality ( OR: 3.376-11.493, 95%CI: 2.907-15.808 ) as factors affecting frailty among middle-aged and elderly residents. Following age stratification, physical activity ( OR=0.817, 95%CI: 0.681-0.981 ) and sleep quality ( OR: 3.076-11.566, 95%CI: 2.518-18.216 ) as factors affecting frailty among subjects at ages of 45 to 59 years, while sleep quality ( OR: 3.777-11.827, 95%CI: 3.002-18.547 ) significantly correlated with frailty among residents at ages of 60 to 69 years. Conclusion Physical activity and sleep quality are associated with the risk of frailty among middle-aged and elderly populations.

Objective:To understand the current status of overweight and obesity, the iodine nutrition level and goiter among children in Tianjin, and explore their relationships, so as to effectively adjust the prevention and control measures.Methods:From January 2019 to December 2020, one primary school was selected from all towns or streets in 16 districts of Tianjin, and non-boarding children aged 8 to 10 (age and gender balanced) were selected from each primary school. The number of children sampled in towns or streets in each district was as even as possible. Every year, 200 children from each district were investigated for height, weight, iodine of household edible salt, urinary iodine and thyroid volume. Body mass index (BMI) was calculated and its relationship with iodine nutrition level and goiter of children was analyzed.Results:A total of 6 552 children were investigated, and the median urinary iodine was 178.95 μg/L, the goiter rate was 2.15% (141/6 552). There was no significant difference in iodine content of household edible salt among children in different BMI groups ( P = 0.835), but the difference in thyroid volume was statistically significant ( P < 0.001). By constructing a restrictive cubic spline model, the risk of goiter in children of different age groups increased with increase of BMI ( P < 0.001 or P = 0.002). Conclusions:The BMI of children is closely related to thyroid volume. The influence of height and weight should be considered in diagnosis of goiter of children.
