Chronic cerebral hypoperfusion leads to white matter injury (WMI), which plays a significant role in contributing to vascular cognitive impairment. While 13-docosenamide is a type of fatty acid amide, it remains unclear whether it has therapeutic effects on chronic cerebral hypoperfusion. In this study, we conducted bilateral common carotid artery stenosis (BCAS) surgery to simulate chronic cerebral hypoperfusion-induced WMI and cognitive impairment. Our findings showed that 13-docosenamide alleviates WMI and cognitive impairment in BCAS mice. Mechanistically, 13-docosenamide specifically binds to cannabinoid receptor 1 (CNR1) in oligodendrocyte precursor cells (OPCs). This interaction results in an upregulation of ubiquitin-specific peptidase 33 (USP33)-mediated CNR1 deubiquitination, subsequently increasing CNR1 protein expression, activating the phosphorylation of the AKT/mTOR pathway, and promoting the differentiation of OPCs. In conclusion, our study suggests that 13-docosenamide can ameliorate chronic cerebral hypoperfusion-induced WMI and cognitive impairment by enhancing OPC differentiation and could serve as a potential therapeutic drug.

Mycoplasma pneumoniae pneumonia(MPP)was a respiratory disease caused by mycoplasma pneumoniae(MP),with a complex and diverse pathogenesis involving multiple modes of cell death.Recent studies showed that programmed cell death(PCD)was associated with MPP.PCD includes cell apoptosis,necrotic apoptosis,autophagy,pyroptosis,extracellular capture network,iron death,and copper death.Therefore,it was of great significance to have a deep understanding of various PCD mechanisms and their relationship with MMP,and to analyze the role of PCD in the occurrence and development mechanism of MMP.This article aims to elucidate the latest developments in PCD research in MPP,to analyze the specific role of PCD in disease progression,and to explore their potential as therapeutic targets.In order to provide theoretical basis and practical direction for optimizing the diagnosis and treatment of MPP,and also to indicate the direction for the development of new target drugs.

Objective To explore the prognostic value of hyperdense artery sign(HAS)in elderly patients with acute anterior LVO in anterior circulation undergoing mechanical thrombectomy.Methods A single-center retrospective analysis was conducted on 109 patients with acute LVO of anterior circulation admitted in our department from January 2019 to December 2022.According to their preoperative plain CT scans,they were divided into HAS positive(39 patients)and HAS negative(70 patients)groups.Baseline features,surgical indicators,complications and outcomes were compared between the two groups.Results The patients with HAS had significantly larger proportions of atrial fibrillation and symptomatic intracranial hemorrhage than those without the sign(53.8％vs 31.4％,20.5％vs 5.7％,P＜0.05).The rate of 90-day good prognosis was a little higher in the HAS positive group than the negative group,though no statistical difference(48.7％vs 38.6％,P＞0.05).Male,stroke history,SBP,NIHSS at admission,HAS positivity,revasculiza-tion,and symptomatic intracranial hemorrhage were independent influencing factors for favorable prognosis in the patients(P＜0.05,P＜0.01).Conclusion The presence of HAS is a prognostic marker for patients with acute LVO in anterior circulation undergoing mechanical thrombectomy,and it is associated with a higher risk of symptomatic intracranial hemorrhage.

Objective:To investigate the relationship between collateral circulation and viable myocardium (VM) in patients with coronary chronic total occlusion (CTO).Methods:A total of 88 patients (76 males, 12 females, age (61.0±9.8) years) with coronary CTO were retrospectively analyzed. All patients underwent both 99Tc m-methoxyisobutylisonitrile (MIBI) SPECT myocardial perfusion imaging and 18F-FDG PET myocardial metabolism imaging for evaluation of VM at the First People′s Hospital of Changzhou between September 2012 and June 2023, and they were scheduled to receive coronary revascularization. The perfusion/metabolism mismatch myocardium was regarded as VM. The VM index within the CTO region was calculated, reflected the quantities of VM: VM index=(summed rest score within the CTO region-summed 18F-FDG uptake score within the CTO region)/reduced perfusion myocardial segments×4×100%. Rentrop grading of collateral circulation was performed based on coronary angiography. The differences of VM index within the CTO region between poor-developed (PD, Rentrop grade 0-1) and well-developed (WD, Rentrop grade 2-3) collateral circulation, and among different Rentrop grades were analyzed by the independent-sample t test or Kruskal-Wallis rank sum test. The linear regression analysis was used to evaluate the relationship between Rentrop grading and VM index within the CTO region. The ROC curve was constructed to analyze the predictive value of Rentrop grading for VM within the CTO region. Results:The VM index within the CTO region was significantly higher in WD patients ( n=54) compared to those in PD patients ( n=34): (45.8±16.3)% vs (21.3±16.7)% ( t=-6.79, P<0.001). Moreover, the VM index within the CTO region increased with increased Rentrop grade, and there was a significant difference among 4 groups ( H=30.22, P<0.001). Multiple linear regression analysis showed that only the Rentrop grading was an independent influencing factor for the VM index within the CTO region ( β=9.29, 95% CI: 5.91-12.67, P<0.001). ROC curve showed that the sensitivity and specificity of Rentrop grading score≥2 for predicting the presence or absence of VM within the CTO region were 65.8%(52/79) and 7/9, with the AUC of 0.724(95% CI: 0.619-0.814). Conclusions:In CTO patients who are scheduled for revascularization and evaluation of VM, as the Rentrop grading increases, the VM index within the CTO region also increases. The presence of VM within the CTO region can be predicted with Rentrop grading score ≥2.

Abstract In recent years, the prevalence of overweight and obesity among children and adolescents has risen rapidly, posing a serious threat to their physical and mental health. To provide scientific, systematic, and standardized weight management guidance for overweight and obese children and adolescents, the study focuses on the core concept of healthy lifestyle intervention, integrates multidisciplinary expert opinions and research findings,and proposes a comprehensive multidisciplinary intervention framework covering scientific exercise intervention, precise nutrition and diet, optimized sleep management, and standardized psychological support. It calls for the establishment of a multi agent collaborative management mechanism led by the government, implemented by families, fostered by schools, initiated by individuals, optimized by communities, reinforced by healthcare, and coordinated by multiple stakeholders. Emphasizing a child and adolescent centered approach, the consensus advocates for comprehensive, multi level, and personalized guidance strategies to promote the internalization and maintenance of a healthy lifestyle. It serves as a reference and provides recommendations for the effective prevention and control of overweight and obesity, and enhancing the health level of children and adolescents.

Objective To explore the correlation between psoas major index(PMI)in patients with diffuse large B-cell lymphoma(DLBCL)and prognosis after rituximab,cyclophosphamide,doxorubicin,vincristine,prednisone(R-CHOP)chemotherapy.Methods Totally 148 DLBCL patients who received R-CHOP chemotherapy were retrospectively enrolled.Based on axis CT image at L3 vertebral transverse process,bilateral psoas muscles were delineated,and PMI was calculated.Then the patients were divided into muscle reduction group(≤lower quartile,n=37)and control group(＞lower quartile,n=111)according to the lower quartile of PMI.Clinical and imaging data were compared between groups,and the correlations of PMI with the above indexes were analyzed.The impact factors of prognosis of DLBCL were observed.Results Significant differences of body mass index(BMI),Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group(ECOG)score,international prognostic index(IPI),the proportion of B symptoms,mortality rate,3-year survival rate,β2-microglobulin,hemoglobin,albumin and PMI were found between groups(all P＜0.05).PMI of DLBCL patient was negatively correlated with age,ECOG score,IPI,β2-microglobulin and lactate dehydrogenase(LDH)(r=—0.126,-0.225,—0.262,—0.232,—0.229,all P＜0.05),but positively correlated with BMI and hemoglobin(r=0.282,0.376,both P＜0.05).The age,ECOG score,IPI and PMI were all independent impact factors of overall survival in DLBCL patients(all P＜0.05).Conclusion PMI was an independent impact factor of prognosis of DLBCL after R-CHOP chemotherapy.

Objective:To evaluate the improvement in the outcome of intracapsular condylar fractures(ICFs)treatment with pre-cise soft tissue reduction in combination with open reduction and internal fixation(PSTR-ORIF)by comparson with traditional open reduction and internal fixation(T-ORIF).Methods:40 patients with ICFs were treated by T-ORIF and PSTR-ORIF(n=20)re-spectively.Preoperative and 6-month postoperative whole-mouth panoramic tomography,CT and MRI imaging data were analyzed,the repositioning of the soft and hard tissues of temporomandibular joints(TMJs),the Helkimo index,clinical symptoms and subjec-tive symptoms were compared between the 2 groups.Results:In PSTR-ORIF(26 sides)and T-ORIF(27 sides)groups,the rate of complete anatomical restoration of fractured segments at 6 months after surgery was 96.15％and 81.48％,and the overall effective rate of ICF articular disc restoration was 96.15％and 74.07％respectively,the height of the ascending mandibular branch was bet-ter restored in patients with B-type fracture after surgery(P＜0.05).At 6 months postoperatively,patients in the PSTR-ORIF group showed significant improvement in mouth opening,mandibular anterior extension distance,and lateral movement compared with the T-ORIF group(P＜0.05).The Helkimo index showed that the PSTR-ORIF group got a significant improvement in the complaint symptom index score and the clinical symptom index score compared with the T-ORIF group(P＜0.05).Conclusion:PSTR-ORIF is more effective than T-ORIF in the treatment of ICFs for the healing of condylar fractures,restore postoperative TMJ mobility and reduce the postoperative joint discomfort through good repositioning of soft tissues.

Objective To evaluate the clinical efficacy and safety of the daratumumab-based regimens,including daratumumab,dexamethasone,and lenalidomide(DRd),as well as daratumumab,dexamethasone,and bortezomib(DVd),in the treatment of patients with relapsed or refractory multiple myeloma(RRMM)at our center.Methods Eighty patients with RRMM were assigned to either the DRd group(42 cases)or the DVd group(38 cases)based on their treatment regimens.Both groups received a baseline treatment of daratumumab combined with dexamethasone(Dd regimen).In the DVd group,1.3 mg/m2 of bortezomib was administered subcutaneously on days 1,4,8,and 11 of each cycle,followed by a 10 day drug-free interval(days 12～21),repeated every 3 weeks until disease progression.In the DRd group,25 mg of lenalidomide was orally administered daily from day 1 to day 21 of each cycle,in addition to the Dd regimen,continuing until disease progression.The two groups were compared in terms of laboratory parameters,tumor markers,clinical efficacy,safety profiles,and long-term prognostic outcomes.Results After treatment,the overall response rate(ORR)of the DRd group and the DVd group was 78.57%(33 out of 42 cases)and 52.63%(20 out of 38 cases),respectively.The serum creatinine(SCr)levels were(92.54±14.33)and(102.07±15.41)μmol/L,respectively;the M protein contents were(19.62±2.04)and(21.08±2.23)g/L,respectively;the β2-microglobulin(β2-MG)levels were(3.49±1.12)and(4.16±1.25)mg/L,respectively;and the progression-free survival rates were 42.86%(18 out of 42 cases)and 26.32%(10 out of 38 cases),respectively.All these indicators showed statistically significant differences between the DRd group and the DVd group(all P<0.05).The incidence rates of adverse reactions in the observation group and the control group were 14.29%(6 out of 42 cases)and 13.16%(5 out of 38 cases),respectively,and the difference was not statistically significant(P>0.05).Conclusion The DRd regimen demonstrates superior efficacy compared to the DVd regimen in treating patients with RRMM,leading to improved patient prognosis with a favorable safety profile.

Objective To analyze the current status of outcome measures in randomized controlled trials(RCTs)of acupuncture treatment for vascular dementia(VD)and promote the development of a standardized set of outcome measures.Methods Chinese and English literature databases were searched,including the Chinese Medical Periodical Full-Text Database,the Chinese Biology Medicine disc,China National Knowledge Infrastructure,Wanfang Data,VIP Database,PubMed,Embase,the Cochrane Library,MEDLINE,Web of Science,Chinese Clinical Trials Registry,and the International Traditional Medicine Clinical Trial Registry.Two researchers independently screened RCT literature on acupuncture treatment for VD between January 1,2015 and January 1,2025,risk of bias was assessed using the Cochrane Risk of Bias 2 tool.Extract basic study information,intervention measures,diagnostic criteria for both Chinese and Western medicine,TCM syndromes,and outcome measures.Summarize the indicator domains of RCT studies on acupuncture treatment for VD,and analyze the basic information and outcome measures of the included studies.Results A preliminary search identified 2,898 articles,of which 93 RCTs were ultimately included.These studies involved 84 outcome measures,covering six indicator domains:symptoms/signs(23.81%),traditional Chinese medicine(TCM)syndromes(3.57%),medical checkups(60.71%),quality of life(5.95%),safety assessment(4.76%),and prognosis follow-up(1.19%).A total of 91(97.85%)RCTs reported treatment duration,ranging from 2 to 24 weeks;72(77.42%)RCTs used clinical efficacy as the outcome indicator;11 studies(11.83%)reported safety assessments and adverse events.Conclusion Currently,the RCT study design for acupuncture treatment of VD lacks unified standards and has numerous methodological issues.These include insufficient description of sample size estimation processes,strong reliance on subjective rating scales,ambiguous definitions of primary and secondary outcome measures,incomplete integration of Chinese and Western medical indicators,and insufficient reflection of individualized syndrome differentiation and treatment characteristics.In addition,safety assessments and follow-up mechanisms remain relatively weak.Future research should focus on the essential nature of VD,establish a core set of indicators aligned with the clinical characteristics of traditional Chinese medicine,promote the scientific and standardized development of acupuncture research for VD,and provide more compelling evidence-based support for clinical practice.
