Endovascular interventional therapy is currently the main treatment for acute ischemic stroke，but some patients still have not achieved neurological function independence. Analysis of the predictive value of various factors for postoperative neurological function changes can provide more reference for selecting appropriate patient groups and treatment plans.

OBJECTIVE: To review clinical application and research progress of different types of intelligent responsive hydrogels in repairing articular cartilage injury. METHODS: The animal experiments and clinical studies of different types of intelligent responsive hydrogels for repairing articular cartilage injury were summarized by reviewing relevant literature at home and abroad. RESULTS: The intrinsic regenerative capacity of articular cartilage following injury is limited. Intelligent responsive hydrogels, including those that are temperature-sensitive, light-sensitive, enzyme-responsive, pH-sensitive, and other stimuli-responsive hydrogels, can undergo phase transitions in response to specific stimuli, thereby achieving optimal functionality. These hydrogels can fill the injured cartilage area, promote the proliferation and differentiation of chondrocytes, and expedite the repair of the damaged site. With advancements in cartilage tissue engineering materials research, intelligent responsive hydrogels offer a novel approach and promising potential for the treatment of cartilage injuries. CONCLUSION Intelligent responsive hydrogel is a kind of flexible, controllable, efficient, and stable polymer, which has similar structure and functional properties to articular cartilage, and has become one of the important biomaterials for cartilage repair. However, there is still a lack of unified treatment standards and simple and efficient preparation technology.

Immune checkpoint blockade therapy has demonstrated remarkable efficacy in treating various malignancies; however, its clinical application remains challenged by low response rates and immune-related adverse events. Immunoglobulin superfamily member 11 (IGSF11), an inhibitory immune checkpoint molecule, serves as a specific ligand for the V-domain immunoglobulin suppressor of T cell activation (VISTA). Through the IGSF11/VISTA axis, it suppresses T cell function and represents a promising novel target for cancer immunotherapy. IGSF11 is widely expressed across multiple tumor types, though its regulatory mechanisms vary depending on the malignancy. Studies have confirmed that blocking the IGSF11-VISTA interaction or specifically inhibiting IGSF11 exerts antitumor effects. While IGSF11 is closely associated with patient prognosis, its prognostic significance differs among cancer types. This review systematically summarizes the structural characteristics of IGSF11, its regulatory mechanisms, interaction with VISTA, and functional role within the tumor microenvironment.

Objective To investigate the effects of active respiratory circulation technique(ACBT)combined with resistance breathing training on pulmonary function and exercise capacity in patients with acute exacerbations of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease(AECOPD).Methods A total of 60 hospitalized AECOPD patients from the Geriatrics Department of a tertiary hospital in Kunming were selected as research subjects from January to May 2024.Patients were randomly divided into two groups,with 30 patients in each group.The control group received conventional pulmonary rehabilitation nursing,and the observation group received ACBT combined with resistance breathing training.Pulmonary function indicators,modified British Medical Council(mMRC)dyspnea scores,6-minute walk test(6MWT)distances,and the COPD Assessment Test(CAT)scores were collected 4 weeks after discharge to evaluate the intervention's effectiveness.Results After the intervention,the observation group showed significant improvements in lung function,mMRC scores,6M WT distances,and CAT scores compared to pre-intervention levels,and all were superior to the control group(P＜0.05).Conclusion ACBT combined with resistance breathing training can more effectively promote sputum clearance,reduce respiratory muscle fatigue,increase exercise endurance,and improve dyspnea severity and lung function in AECOPD patients.

Objective: To understand the current situation of college students emotional regulation and its correlation with perceived social support, so as to provide a reference for improving emotional regulation ability among college students. Methods: From September 15 to October 15, 2022, a total of 15 560 students from 27 colleges and universities in Guangdong, Jiangsu, Shandong, Shanghai, Anhui, Hebei, Yunnan, Shanxi and Gansu were enrolled by stratified random sampling method. The Perceived Social Support Scale (PSSS) and the Emotion Regulation Questionnaire (ERQ) were used to investigate, and multiple stepwise regression was used to explore the relationship between perceived social support and emotion regulation of college students. Results: The scores of emotion regulation, cognitive reappraisal and expression inhibition were 44(40, 50), 24(20, 28) and 20(19, 24) respectively. There were significant differences in the scores of emotion regulation, cognitive reappraisal and expression inhibition by age, grade, household registration, only child status,cost of living, and sleep ( H/Z =77.72, 49.73, -5.10, -9.77, 7.68, 168.27 ; 204.55, 317.32, -5.96, -7.60, 131.20, 968.08; 82.18, 148.04, -2.30, -8.03, 64.82, 188.08, P <0.05). In addition, the multiple stepwise regression found that family support, friend support, and other support in perceived social support all had a positive impact on the emotional regulation state of college students ( β =0.137,0.207,0.090), and family support and friend support had a significant positive effect on expression inhibition( β =0.079,0.053) and cognitive reappraisal( β =0.153,0.296)( P <0.01). Conclusion The perceived social support can directly affect the emotional regulation of college students, and improving the emotional regulation ability has a positive significance to promote the mental health level among college students.

Objective:To evaluate the relationship between red blood cell distribution width (RDW) and prognosis of patients with hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) andergoing transcatheter arterial chemoembolization (TACE).Methods:Clinical data of 212 patients with HCC andergoing TACE for the first time in Department of Interventional Radiology, the Affiliated Hospital of Xuzhou Medical University from January 2011 to May 2018 were retrospectively analyzed, including 184 males and 28 females, aged (56.8±11.2) years. Follow-up for survival. X-tile software was used to determine 13.1% as the optimal threshold for preoperative RDW prediction of prognosis, and enrolled patients were divided into a low level group (RDW<13.1%, n=70) and a high level group (RDW≥13.1%, n=142). Aspartate aminotransferase, total bilirubin, albumin, hemoglobin and lipoprotein a, Barcelona clinical liver cancer (BCLC) stage and other indexes were compared between the two groups. Survival analysis was performed by Kaplan-Meier method, survival rate was compared by log-rank test, and the effect of RDW on prognosis was analyzed by Cox regression. Results:The 1-year, 2-year and 3-year cumulative survival rates in RDW high level group were 34.5%, 14.1% and 6.3%, respectively, while those in RDW low level group were 64.3%, 38.6% and 21.4%, respectively, with significant difference ( χ2=23.09, P<0.001). Compared with the low level group, the levels of aspartate aminotransferase and total bilirubin were higher, the levels of albumin, hemoglobin and lipoprotein a were lower, the proportion of portal vein cancer thrombin was higher, and the stage of BCLC was later, with statistical significance (all P<0.05). Cox regression analysis showed that HCC patients with RDW≥13.1%( HR=1.732, 95% CI: 1.223-2.452, P=0.002) had poor survival prognosis after TACE. Conclusion:Preoperative RDW≥13.1% is an independent risk factor for survival after TACE in patients with HCC. RDW has potential predictive value for prognosis of patients with HCC.

Generative artificial intelligence (GAI) refers to AI technology capable of generating new content such as text, images, or audio from training data. GAI tools not only demonstrate rapid and efficient potential in literature screening, data extraction, and literature appraisal in systematic reviews, but can also be used for guideline evaluation and dissemination, enhancing the readability and promotion efficiency of guidelines. However, the accuracy of content generated by GAI tools, the rationality of cited evidence, the level of evidence, and the reliability of data still need verification. Additionally, data privacy protection and ethical issues are challenges that need to be addressed. This article aims to overview the current status of GAI tools in the formulation, evaluation, dissemination, and implementation of guidelines, explore the feasibility and new models of GAI tools in the field of guidelines, and improve the efficiency and quality of guideline formulation to better serve guideline developers and users.

Objective:Exploring gene-age interactions associated with breast cancer prognosis based on epigenomic data.Methods:Differential expression analysis of DNA methylation was conducted using multiple independent epigenomic datasets of breast cancer from The Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA) and Gene Expression Omnibus (GEO). The false discovery rate (FDR) method was used for multiple corrections, retaining differentially methylated sites with q-FDR≤0.05. A three-stage analytic strategy was implemented, using a multivariable Cox proportional hazards regression model to examine gene-age interactions. In the discovery phase, signals with q-FDR ≤ 0.05 were screened out using TCGA-BRCA database. In validation phaseⅠ, the interaction was validated using GSE72245 data, with criteria of P≤0.05 and consistent effect direction. In validation phaseⅡ, the signals were further validated using GSE37754 and GSE75067 data. A prognostic prediction model was constructed by incorporating clinical indicators and interaction signals. Results:The three-stage analytic strategy identified a methylation site (cg16126280 EBF1), which interacted with age to jointly affect the overall survival time of patients (interaction HR= 1.001 1,95% CI:1.000 7-1.001 5, P<0.001). Stratified analysis by age showed that the effect of hypermethylation of cg16126280 EBF1 was completely opposite in younger patients ( HR=0.550 5, 95% CI: 0.383 8-0.789 6, P=0.001) and older patients ( HR=2.166 5, 95% CI: 1.285 2-3.652 2, P=0.004). Conclusions:The DNA methylation site cg16126280 EBF1 exhibits an interaction with age, jointly influencing the prognosis of breast cancer in a complex association pattern. This finding contributes new population-based evidence for the development of age-specific targeted drugs.
