Objective: To understand the growth and development levels of four physical measurements in children aged 3-6 years in China, so as to provide a reference for child nutrition improvement and health promotion. Methods: A stratified random sampling method was used to collect physical measurement data from 120 kindergartens 25 842 children aged 3-6 years across 24 provinces and cities in seven natural geographical regions of North China, Northeast China, East China, Central China, South China, Southwest China and Northwest China from 2020 to 2023. The development levels of head circumference, chest circumference, waist circumference, and hip circumference were evaluated using a grading method. The analysis of gender and age differences was conducted using Mann-Whitney U- test and Kruskal-Wallis test, and the comparison of abnormal detection rates for different genders was conducted using Chi square test. Results: The distribution range of children aged 3-6 was 51.74(50.08, 53.33) cm in terms of head circumference, 55.73(52.09, 59.04) cm in terms of chest circumference, 53.04(48.92, 56.40) cm in terms of waist circumference, and 59.36(56.30, 62.32) cm in terms of hip circumference. The detection rate of abnormal head circumference in boys and girls aged 3-6 years old was relatively high (19.71%-42.02%), and the detection rate of abnormal physical circumference development levels in boys was higher than that in girls of all ages ( χ 2=5.63-83.35, P <0.05). The detection rate of abnormal hip circumference (4.89%-6.53%) and chest circumference (4.51%-6.38%) in boys and girls aged 3-6 was relatively low, and there was no statistically significant difference in the abnormal rate between different ages and genders ( χ 2=0.00-1.61, 0.00-3.71, P >0.05). The detection rate of abnormal waist circumference in boys and girls aged 3-6 was relatively high (13.70%-42.45%), and the detection rate of abnormal waist circumference in girls was higher than that in boys aged 4-6 groups ( χ 2=10.49-58.18, P < 0.05). Conclusions The overall physical development of children aged 3-6 years in China is improving, but the abnormal detection rates for head circumference and waist circumference are relatively high. Child healthcare should focus on preventing and treating abdominal obesity, with differentiated health intervention strategies based on different age groups and genders.

Objective:To investigate the risk factors for lung metastasis from differentiated thyroid cancer (DTC), predict the occurrence of lung metastasis, and diagnose lung metastasis early.Methods:From April 2013 to May 2023, 442 DTC patients (145 males, 297 females; age (41.6±13.1) years) who received 131I treatment in the First Affiliated Hospital of the Air Force Medical University were retrospectively analyzed. All patients were divided into lung metastasis group ( n=124) and non-lung metastasis group ( n=318) according to pathology or clinical, imaging and laboratory test results. Patients were randomly divided into training set ( n=309) and validation set ( n=133) at the ratio of 7∶3. The differences of clinical data between the two groups were compared by χ2 test and Mann-Whitney U test. Factors affecting lung metastasis were analyzed by multivariate logistic regression analysis. ROC curve analysis was used to evaluate the predictive ability of the model. Results:The differences of sex, primary tumor type, multifocal, extra thyroid tissue invasion, number of operations, thyroglobulin (Tg) level before 131I treatment, maximum diameter of primary lesion, lymphocyte absolute value, neutrophil absolute value and B-Raf proto-oncogene, serine/threonine kinase (BRAF) V600E mutation between the two groups were statistically significant ( χ2 values: 7.72-107.77, z values: from -6.50 to -2.44, all P<0.05). Multivariate logistic regression analysis showed that multifocal (odds ratio ( OR)=5.646, 95% CI: 1.763-18.089, P=0.004), BRAF V600E mutation ( OR=0.184, 95% CI: 0.062-0.543, P=0.002), Tg level before 131I treatment ( OR=1.015, 95% CI: 1.004-1.025, P=0.005), lymphocyte absolute value ( OR=0.395, 95% CI: 0.166-0.940, P=0.036) and maximum diameter of primary lesion ( OR=1.932, 95% CI: 1.207-3.093, P=0.006) were independent factors affecting lung metastasis. The AUCs of the training set and validation set obtained by the nomogram prognostic model were 0.899 and 0.889, respectively. Conclusion:Large primary tumor, multiple focus, non-mutated BRAF V600E gene, high Tg level before 131I treatment and low lymphocyte absolute value may be considered as risk factors for lung metastasis of DTC.

Anti-glomerular basement membrane (GBM) nephritis and anti-neutrophil cytoplasmic antibody (ANCA) -associated vasculitis are both autoimmune diseases that can involve multiple systems throughout the body, and both can cause crescent glomerulonephritis. At present, cases of such "double-positive" antibodies have been reported at home and abroad , but the cases of acute progressive glomerulonephritis (RPGN) with IgA nephropathy that are both positive for GBM and ANCA are relatively rare. This case was a middle-aged female patient, whose clinical manifestations were consistent with rapidly progressive glomerulonephritis, positive for anti-GBM antibodies and anti-myeloperoxidase. After renal puncture biopsy, she was diagnosed as anti-GBM nephritis complicated with ANCA associated vasculitis and IgA nephropathy.After treatment with plasma exchange, hemodialysis, glucocorticoids, cyclophosphamide, etc., the condition improved and the patient was discharged. But the patient did not follow the doctor's instructions to take medication and continue hemodialysis treatment after discharge, and the condition worsened, ultimately leading to death.

Objective To explore the value of model established with radiomics features based on contrast enhanced arterial phase CT and model with radiogenomics for predicting prognosis of ovarian serous cystadenocarcinoma(OSC).Methods Enhanced arterial phase CT images of 110 OSC patients were retrospectively collected from 2 centers and The Cancer Imaging Archive(TCIA)database.The radiomics features were extracted,among those related to prognosis were selected to establish a radiomics Cox regression model.Genes data of 399 OSC patients were obtained from The Cancer Genome Atlas(TCGA)database,and genes related to the radiomics features included in the above radiomics model were identified with high Pearson correlation coefficient,and then enrichment gene analyses were performed.For 57 OSC cases with complete enhanced CT and gene data,the hub genes which had the highest connectivity with radiomics prognosis predicting model were detected using Cox regression and protein-protein interaction(PPI).Furthermore,a radiogenomics prognosis predicting model was established with the hub genes.The efficiencies of these 2 models for predicting prognosis of OSC patients were analyzed.Results Finally,the radiomics model included 5 OSC prognosis-related radiomics features,with C-index of 0.782 and 0.735 in corresponding training and test set,respectively.Meanwhile,the radiogenomics model included 30 prognostic hub genes,with C-index of 0.673 and 0.659 in corresponding training and test set,respectively.The survival rates of patients with better predicted prognosis according to radiomics model and radiogenomics model were both higher compared with the others(both P＜0.05).Totally 1 135 mRNA genes were found being associated with radiomics model,including biological behaviors such as cell adhesion,and signaling pathways such as PI3K-Akt,extracellular matrix receptor interaction pathway and type 1 diabetes pathway.Conclusion The radiomics model was effective for predicting prognosis of OSC patients.Analysis of mRNA bioinformatics in OSC patients might provide biological interpretations for the radiomics model.

Wuhutang is the 51st Chinese medicine prescription of Han ethnic group on in the catalogue of ancient classical prescriptions （the second batch） ，which originated from Renzhai' Straight Diections Prescriptions （《仁斋直指方》） by YANG Shiying in the Song dynasty，it is composed of 5 medicines， including Ephedrae Herba，Armeniacae Semen Amarum， Glycyrrhizae Radix et Rhizoma， tea and Gypsum Fibrosum. It treats shortness of breath and phlegm. Following the principle of textual research on the key information of ancient classical famous prescriptions， the author collected and recorded the ancient books of traditional Chinese medicine of Wuhutang with the method of Bibliometrics， and screened out 53 valid data， involving 41 ancient books. Based on the historical evolution， drug composition， main treatment of disease and syndrome， drug dosage， method of preparation and usage， drug origin and processing， the author conducted a dig and a systematic study of Wuhutang. The results show that：in the later generations， besides inheriting the original prescription， the composition of medicine was added or subtracted， and the frequency of addition of Mori Cortex was the most；in the treatment of disease and syndrome， most of them inherited the original prescription mainly treating asthma syndrome， also see in the treatment of asthma， cough and other lung disease， in the drug dosage and method of use ， it is suggested to inherit the original prescription， the dosage of each medicine is： Ephedrae Herba 2.89 g， Armeniacae Semen Amarum 4.13 g， Glycyrrhizae Radix et Rhizoma 1.65 g， tea 3.30 g， Gypsum Fibrosum 6.20 g， decoction， take warm clothes before eating；on the source of medcine，ephedra is made from the dried herbaceous stems of Ephedra sinica （Ephedraceae），bitter almond is made from the dried and mature seeds of Prunus armeniaca （Rosaceae），Licorice is made from the dried roots and rhizomes of Glycyrrhiza uralensis（Legumes）， tea is made from the buds leaves of Camellia sinensis（Camellia），plaster is made from Gypsum Fibrosum of sulfate mineral gypsum family. At the same time， we collected and sorted the modern clinical application literature of Wuhutang， and obtained 73 effective literatures， all of which are for the treatment of respiratory system diseases， especially for children's pneumonia and asthma， and mostly belong to"phlegm-heat obstructing the lung syndrome".

Background It is a research hotspot to study the changes of metabolites and metabolic pathways in the process of coal worker's pneumoconiosis (CWP) by metabonomics and to explore its pathogenesis. Objective To study the change of metabolites in bronchoalveolar lavage fluid (BALF) of patients with CWP and explore the metabolic regulation mechanism of the disease. Methods Patients with CWP who met the national diagnostic criteria according to Diagnosis of occupational pneumoconiosis (GBZ 70-2015) and underwent massive whole lung lavage were selected as the case group, and patients with tracheostenosis who underwent bronchoscopy were selected as the control group. BALF samples were collected from the cases and the controls. After filtering out large particles and mucus, the supernatant was stored in a −80 ℃ refrigerator. The samples were detected and analyzed by liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry after adding extraction solution, cold bath ultrasonication, and high-speed centrifugation, and the metabolic profiles and related data of CWP patients were obtained. The differential metabolites related to the occurrence and development of CWP were screened by multiple statistical analysis; furthermore, we searched the Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes (KEGG) database for potential metabolic pathways involved in the progression. Results There was no significant difference in the general conditions of the subjects, such as weight, height, age, and length of service among the stage I group, the stage II group, the stage III group, and the control group (P˃0.05). When comparing the CWP stage I group with the control group, 48 differential metabolites were screened out, among which 14 were up-regulated and 34 were down-regulated. A total of 66 differential metabolites were screened out between the patients with CWP stage II and the controls, 14 up-regulated and 52 down-regulated differential metabolites. Compared with the control group, 63 differential metabolites were screened out in the patients with CWP stage III, including 11 up-regulated and 52 down-regulated differential metabolites. There were 36 differential metabolites that may be related to the occurrence of CWP, among which 11 differential metabolites were up-regulated, and 25 were down-regulated. Four significant differential metabolic pathways were identified through KEGG database query: linoleic acid metabolic pathway, alanine metabolic pathway, sphingolipid metabolic pathway, and glycerophospholipid metabolic pathway. Conclusion The metabolomic study of BALF show that there are 36 different metabolites in the occurrence and development of CWP, mainly associating with linoleic acid metabolism, alanine metabolism, sphingolipid metabolism, and glycerophospholipid metabolism pathways.

Background Pneumoconiosis is a widespread occupational disease in China at present. As a type of lung diseases, its pathological damage is mainly irreversible fibrotic changes in the lungs. Several studies have shown that the occurrence and development of lung diseases such as coal workers' pneumoconiosis are closely related to intestinal flora. Objective To observe intestinal flora of coal workers' pneumoconiosis patients based on the results of 16SrDNA high-throughput sequencing and evaluate the changes of intestinal flora after treatment with tetrandrine tablets. Methods A total of 80 patients with coal workers' pneumoconiosis attending the outpatient clinic of the Department of Occupational Diseases of the Emergency General Hospital from April to July 2022 were enrolled. All patients were treated with tetrandrine tablets for 4 weeks, with group A before the treatment of tetrandrine tablets and group B after the treatment. In the same period, 24 healthy controls (group C) were set up. Stool samples were collected before and after the treatment. Using 16SrDNA high-throughput sequencing, gene V3-V4 sequencing technology, and bioinformatic analysis platform, we evaluated the intestinal flora after treatment by groups. Results The dominant flora at the phylum level and genus level were the same across three groups. The relative abundances of phylum Bacteroidetes, Bifidobacterium, Bacteroides, and Facealibacterium in groups B and C were higher than those in group A, and the relative abundances of phy-lum Actinobacteria, genus Blautia, and genus Romboutsia in groups B and C were lower than those in group A (P＜0.05). The relative abundances of genus Clostridium, genus Megamonas, and genus Lactobacillus in group C was lower than that in groups A and B (P＜0.05). The alpha diversity analysis showed that the Chao1 index was higher in group A than in group C (P＜0.01). Compared with group A, the Shannon index was higher in group B, and the increases of Simpson index were all statistically significant in stage I patients (P＜0.05), but the differences in Chao1 index were not statistically significant (P＞0.05). The differences in the values of Chao1 index, Shannon index, and Simpson index in stage Ⅱ and stage III patients were not statistically significant (P＞0.05). The beta diversity analysis showed that the difference in flora structure between group A and group C was statistically significant (P＜0.05); the differences in flora structure before and after treatment in the same stage patients were statistically significant (P＜0.05). The partial least squares discriminant analysis (PLS-DA) showed that there were significant differences between group A and group C, and between group A and group B. The LEfSe analysis showed that the significant markers contributing to the differences were basically the same in stage I, stage Ⅱ, and stage Ⅲ after treatment, which were mainly phylum Bacteroidetes and its subordinate groups, class Negativicutes, or-der Selenomonas, and genus Facealibacterium. Conclusion There are differences in the distribution of flora between coal workers' pneumoconiosis patients and healthy individuals, and the structure and relative abundance of intestinal flora are changed and the number of beneficial flora is increased after treatment with tetrandrine tablets.

Objective To investigate the expression of Toll-like receptor 2(TLR2)and Toll-like receptor 4(TLR4)in peripheral blood mononuclear cells(PBMC)in children with recurrent respiratory tract infection(RRTI)and its relationship with T helper cell 1(Th1)/T helper cell 2(Th2)immune response.Methods A total of 65 children diagnosed with RRTI who admitted to the hospital from December 2020 to December 2022 were enrolled in the study as the RRTI group,and 45 healthy children who underwent physical examination in the hospital during the same period were enrolled as the control group.The relative expression levels of TLR2 and TLR4 mRNA in PBMCs were detected by real-time fluorescence quantitative PCR(qPCR).The expres-sion rates of TLR2 and TLR4 protein in PBMCs were detected by flow cytometry.The levels of Th1 cytokine interferon-γ(IFN-γ),Th2 cytokine interleukin-4(IL-4)and their ratio(IFN-γ/IL-4)in plasma were detected by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay(ELISA).Pearson correlation analysis was used to analyze the corre-lation between TLR2,TLR4 protein expression rates and plasma IFN-γ,IL-4 levels.Results The RRTI group had significantly higher plasma level of Th2 cytokine IL-4 than the control group,significantly lower plasma level of Th1 cytokine IFN-y than the control group,and significantly lower ratio of IFN-γ/IL-4 than the con-trol group,the differences were all statistically significant(P＜0.05).The relative expression levels of TLR2 and TLR4 mRNA and protein expression rates in PBMC of children in the RRTI group were higher than those in the control group,and the differences were statistically significant(P＜0.05).Pearson correlation analysis showed that the protein expression rates of TLR2 and TLR4 in PBMC of children with RRTI were both nega-tively correlated with both plasma IFN-γ levels and IFN-γ/IL-4(P＜0.05)and positively correlated with plasma IL-4 levels(P＜0.05).Conclusion The expression of TLR2 and TLR4 in PBMC and plasma Th1/Th2 cytokines in children with RRTI may be involved in the occurrence and development of the disease.Ex-cessive activation of TLR2 and TLR4 may weaken Th1 function and enhance Th2 function.

Background At present, the practice of pulmonary rehabilitation for pneumoconiosis in China is in a primary stage. The basis for formulating an individualized comprehensive pulmonary rehabilitation plan is still insufficient, which is one of the factors limiting the development of community-level rehabilitation work. Objective To formulate an exercise prescription based on maximum heart rate measured by cardiopulmonary exercise test (CPET), conduct an individualized comprehensive pulmonary rehabilitation program with the exercise prescription for patients with stable pneumoconiosis, and evaluate its role in improving exercise endurance and quality of life, thus provide a basis for the application and promotion of pulmonary rehabilitation. Methods A total of 68 patients were recruited from the Occupational Disease Prevention Hospital of Jinneng Holding Coal Industry Group Co., Ltd. from April to August 2022 , and were divided into an intervention group and a control group by random number table method, with 34 cases in each group. All the pneumoconiosis patients participated in a baseline test. The control group was given routine drug treatment, while the intervention group received multidisciplinary comprehensive pulmonary rehabilitation treatment on the basis of routine drug treatment, including health education, breathing training, exercise training, nutrition guidance, psychological intervention, and sleep management, whose exercise intensity was determined according to the maximum heart rate provided by CPET. The rehabilitation training lasted for 24 weeks. Patients were evaluated at registration and the end of study respectively. CPET was used to measure peak oxygen uptake per kilogram (pVO₂/kg), anaerobic threshold (AT), carbon dioxide equivalent of ventilation (EqCO₂), maximum metabolic equivalent (METs), and maximum work (W_max). The modified British Medical Research Council Dyspnea Questionnaire (mMRC), Self-rating Anxiety Scale (SAS), Self-rating Depression Scale (SDS), Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index (PSQI), Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease Assessment Test (CAT), and Short Form of Health Survey (SF-36) were used to evaluate the potential effect of the comprehensive pulmonary rehabilitation program. Results Among the included 68 patients, 63 patients were having complete data, then 31 cases were assigned in the control group and 32 cases in the interventional group. Before the intervention, there was no significant difference in pVO₂/kg, AT, EqCO₂, METs, or W_max between the two groups (P>0.05). At the end of the trail, the indicators like pVO₂/kg [(19.81±2.38) mL·(min·kg)⁻¹], AT [(14.48±2.33) mL·(min·kg)⁻¹], METs (5.64±0.69), and W_max [(85.25±14) W] of patients in the intervention group were all higher than those [(13.90±2.37) mL·(min·kg)⁻¹, (11.70±1.94) mL·(min kg)⁻¹, (3.97±0.70), and (61.77±14.72) W, respectively] in the control group (P<0.001); there was no significant difference in EqCO₂ between the two groups (P=0.083). Before the trial, there was no significant difference in mMRC, SAS, SDS, PSQI, or CAT scores between the two groups (P>0.05). At the end of the trail, the mMRC score (1.16±0.57), SAS score (27.93±2.12), SDS score (26.48±1.44), PSQI score (1.08±0.88), and CAT score (4.34±3.28) of patients in the intervention group were lower than those [(2.03±0.83), (35.87±6.91), (34.23±6.65), (5.37±3.03), and (13.87±7.53), respectively] in the control group (P<0.001). The SF-36 scores of bodily pain (94.13±10.72), general health (87.50±5.68), vitality (95.31±5.53), mental health (99.88±0.71), and health changes (74.22±4.42) in the intervention group were higher than those [(71.87±32.72), (65.81±15.55), (74.52±16.45), (86.97±16.56), and (29.84±13.50), respectively] in the control group (P<0.001), and no significant difference was found in social functioning and role emotional scores (P>0.05). Conclusion Comprehensive pulmonary rehabilitation can increase the oxygen intake and exercise endurance of pneumoconiosis patients, ameliorate dyspnea symptoms, elevate psychological state and sleep quality, and improve the quality of life.
