ObjectiveTo combine metabolomics， proteomics， and transcriptomics to analyze the biological characteristics of damp-heat toxin accumulation syndrome and damp-heat accumulation syndrome in acute gout. MethodsBlood samples were collected from 15 patients with damp-heat toxin accumulation syndrome and 15 patients with damp-heat accumulation syndrome in acute gout in clinical practice. Metabolomics technology was applied to detect serum metabolites， and an orthogonal partial sample least squares discriminant analysis model was constructed to screen for metabolites with significant intergroup changes， and enrichment pathway analysis and receiver operating characteristic （ROC） curve analysis were performed. Astral data independence acquisition （DIA） was used to detect serum proteins， perform principal component analysis and screen differential proteins， demonstrate differential ploidy by radargram， apply subcellular localisation to analyse protein sources， and finally apply weighted gene co-expression network analysis （WGCNA） to find key proteins. Transcriptome sequencing technology was also applied to detect whole blood mRNA， screen differential genes and perform WGCNA， and construct machine learning models to screen key genes. ResultsMetabolome differential analysis revealed 62 differential metabolites in positive ion mode and 26 in negative ion mode. These differential metabolites were mainly enriched in the mTOR signaling pathway and FoxO signaling pathway， with trans-3,5-dimethoxy-4-hydroxycinnamaldehyde， guanabenz， 4-aminophenyl-1-thio-beta-d-galactopyranoside showing the highest diagnostic efficacy. The proteome differential analysis found that 55 proteins up-regulated and 20 proteins down-regulated in the samples of damp-heat toxin accumulation syndrome. Notably， myelin basic protein （MBP）， transferrin （TF）， DKFZp686N02209， and apolipoprotein B （APOB） showed the most significant differences in expression. Differential proteins were mainly enriched in pathways related to fat digestion and absorption， lipid and atherosclerosis， and cholesterol metabolism. WGCNA showed the highest correlation between damp-heat toxin accumulation syndrome and the brown module， with proteins in this module primarily enriched in the hypoxia-inducible factor 1 （HIF-1） signaling pathway and lipid and atherosclerosis. Transcriptomic differential analysis identified 252 differentially expressed genes， with WGCNA indicating the highest correlation between damp-heat toxin accumulation syndrome and the midnight blue module. The random forest （RF） model was identified as the optimal machine learning model， predicting apolipoprotein B receptor （APOBR）， far upstream element-binding protein 2 （KHSRP）， POU domain class 2 transcription factor 2 （POU2F2）， EH domain-containing protein 1 （EHD1）， and family with sequence similarity 110A （FAM110A） as key genes. Integrated multi-omics analysis suggested that damp-heat toxin accumulation syndrome in the acute phase of gout is closely associated with lipid metabolism， particularly APOB. ConclusionCompared to damp-heat accumulation syndrome in the acute phase of gout， damp-heat toxin accumulation syndrome is more closely associated with lipid metabolism， particularly APOB， and lipid metabolism disorders contribute to the development of damp-heat toxin accumulation syndrome in patients with acute gout.

Autoimmune encephalitis（AE）is a group of inflammatory disorders within the central nervous system（CNS）triggered by autoimmune mechanisms. Most AE patients show good responses to first-line immunotherapies such as corticosteroids and intravenously injected immunoglobulin. Nevertheless，the adverse effects associated with extensive immunosuppression have become a difficult issue in treatment，and some patients with severe conditions or recurrence still require further intensive therapy. Therefore，it is urgently needed to search for novel treatment strategies with high efficiency，precision，and safety. In recent years，targeted immunotherapy and chimeric antigen receptor T-cell immunotherapy that specifically target immune cells or cytokines involved in the pathogenesis of AE have gradually become research hotspots，with good tolerability and safety，which provides new options for the clinical management of AE.

INTRODUCTION: Visual impairment and obesity remain the major public health issues among school-age students in rural areas of China. Obesity is an underlying risk of vision problems. This study aimed to assess the association between visual impairment and body mass index (BMI) among school-age students in rural northwest China. METHODS: This study included 39,385 students from the 4 th to 9 th grade in rural northwest China. From 2018 to 2020, students underwent an assessment of visual acuity (VA) and completed a questionnaire on family demographics, and height and weight measurements. Multiple logistic regression analyses were used to analyse the data. RESULTS: The association between visual impairment and BMI groups was significant in the study population ( P = 0.002) and in different groups (at the different educational, provincial and national levels) ( P < 0.001, separately). Multiple logistic regression analyses revealed a positive relationship between visual impairment and obesity in the study population, including those attending primary school, Han students and the residents of Ningxia autonomous region. CONCLUSION The association between visual impairment and obesity was significant among school-age students in rural northwest China. There should be implementation of policies to address the problem about visual impairment and obesity among school-age students in rural areas.

Head and neck squamous cell carcinoma (HNSCC) is the seventh most common malignant tumor in the world, with a 5-year survival rate of only about 50%. Thus, discovering more effective diagnostic and therapeutic approaches is an urgent need. The metabolic reprogramming of tumor cells is a key feature in the development of HNSCC, which widely exhibits alterations in glycolytic metabolism, lipid metabolism, and amino acid metabolism compared with normal cells. Metabolic reprogramming affects the energy supply and biosynthesis of tumor cells. It also participates in the regulation of the tumor microenvironment and promotes key biological processes such as proliferation, invasion, and metastasis of HNSCC. With the progressive understanding of the complexity of tumor biology, targeted-therapy strategies against metabolic reprogramming in HNSCC are emerging as a promising therapeutic approach. These metabolically targeted therapies have performed well in preclinical studies, but their clinical application requires further validation. In the future, we need to deeply explore the more complex features of metabolic reprogramming and its biological significance in HNSCC, with the aim of discovering more effective diagnostic and therapeutic targets, as well as providing new strategies to improve the prognosis of HNSCC patients.
