Objective To construct and compare logistic regression and decision tree models for predicting systemic inflammatory response syndrome (SIRS) in patients with type B aortic dissection (TBAD) after interventional surgery. Methods A retrospective analysis was conducted on clinical data of TBAD patients at Peking University Shenzhen Hospital from 2020 to 2024. The patients were divided into a SIRS group and a non SIRS group based on whether SIRS occurred within 24 hours after surgery. Multivariate logistic regression was used to analyze the influencing factors of SIRS occurrence in TBAD intervention patients, and a decision tree model was constructed using SPSS Modeler to compare the predictive performance of the two models. Results A total of 742 patients with TBAD were included, including 579 males and 163 females, aged 27-97 (58.85±10.79) years. Within 24 hours after intervention, a total of 506 patients developed SIRS, with an incidence rate of 68.19%. Logistic regression analysis showed that the extensive involvement of the dissection, the surgical time≥2 hours, PET coated stents implanted, serum creatinine, white blood cell count, C-reactive protein, monocyte (MONO), neutrophil count levels elevated, estimated glomerular filtration rate and decreased albumin levels were independent risk factors for SIRS (P<0.05). The decision tree model selected a total of 10 explanatory variables and 6 layers with 37 nodes, among which MONO was the most important predictor. The area under the decision tree model curve was 0.829 [95%CI (0.800, 0.856)], which was better than the logistic regression model's 0.690 [95%CI (0.655, 0.723)], and the difference was statistically significant (P<0.001). Conclusion The incidence of SIRS after TBAD intervention is high, and the decision tree model has better predictive performance than logistic regression. It can identify high-risk patients with higher accuracy and provide a practical tool for early clinical intervention.

ObjectiveTo investigate the incidence rate of primary liver cancer (PLC) and the progression of liver fibrosis in chronic hepatitis B (CHB) patients with low-level viremia (LLV) (HBV DNA<2 000 IU/mL but ≥20 IU/mL) after treatment adjustment, and to provide more robust evidence for clinical practice. MethodsA retrospective analysis was performed for the clinical data of LLV patients who initially received nucleos(t)ide analogue (NAs) for at least 48 weeks at the Fifth Medical Center of PLA General Hospital from August 2007 to April 2017 and subsequently underwent NAs adjustment due to LLV, and according to the virologic response after 48 weeks of treatment adjustment, the patients were divided into LLV group and complete virological response (CVR) group (HBV DNA<20 IU/mL). The patients were followed up once every 3 — 6 months till the primary endpoint event of PLC or October 2024. The incidence rate of PLC and the progression of liver fibrosis were observed, and the progression of liver fibrosis was defined as an increase of ≥1 grade in fibrosis-4 (FIB-4) index. The independent-samples t test was used for comparison of normally distributed continuous data between two groups, and the Mann-Whitney U test was used for comparison of continuous data with skewed distribution between two groups; the chi-square test was used for comparison of categorical data between groups. The Kaplan-Meier method was used to calculate the cumulative incidence rate of PLC, and the Log-rank test was used for comparison between groups; the Cox regression analysis was used to investigate the risk factors for PLC, and the Logistic regression analysis was used to investigate the influencing factors for the progression of liver fibrosis. ResultsA total of 307 patients were enrolled, with a mean age of 50.0 years, and the male patients accounted for 80.5%. After 48 weeks of treatment with the adjusted NAs regimen, 254 patients (82.7%) achieved CVR, and 53 patients (17.3%) still had LLV. For the LLV group, the incidence rate of PLC was 30.2% and the rate of liver fibrosis progression was 22.6%, while for the CVR group, the incidence rate of PLC was only 13.4%, and the rate of liver fibrosis progression was 7.5%. The multivariate regression analyses showed that LLV was an independent risk factor for the onset of PLC (hazard ratio=2.623, 95% confidence interval [CI]: 1.315 — 5.234, P=0.006) and the progression of liver fibrosis (odds ratio=3.213, 95%CI: 1.385 — 7.455, P=0.007). ConclusionActive adjustment of treatment is needed immediately after the diagnosis of LLV to improve CVR, and if LLV persists after treatment adjustment, it is necessary to enhance the monitoring of liver fibrosis progression and PLC, so as to facilitate early diagnosis and treatment.

ObjectiveTo investigate the features of liver histopathological damage in patients with indeterminate phase of chronic HBV infection, as well as the timing for initiating antiviral therapy in such patients. MethodsA retrospective screening was performed for the patients with chronic HBV infection who were hospitalized in The Fifth Medical Center of Chinese PLA General Hospital and underwent liver biopsy from March 2018 to April 2022, among whom the patients who met the criteria for indeterminate phase defined in Chinese guidelines for chronic hepatitis B prevention and treatment (2022 edition) were enrolled, and their clinical data were collected. Liver histopathological stage was determined using the Scheuer scoring system, with stages 0 — 4 for inflammation grade (G) and stages 0 — 4 for fibrosis degree (S), and the patients were divided into groups based on the presence of significant necroinflammation (≥G2) and significant liver fibrosis (≥S2). The independent samples t-test was used for comparison of normally distributed continuous data between two groups, and the Mann-Whitney U test was used for comparison of non-normally distributed continuous data between two groups; the chi-square test or the Fisher’s exact test was used for comparison of categorical data between two groups. A Spearman’s rank correlation analysis was used to investigate the correlation between liver histopathology and clinical factors, and the Logistic regression model was used to identify the independent influencing factors for significant necroinflammation and liver fibrosis. ResultsA total of 271 patients with indeterminate phase of chronic HBV infection were enrolled, among whom 61 (22.5%) had significant necroinflammation (≥G2) and 124 (45.8%) had significant liver fibrosis (≥S2). The Logistic regression analysis showed that alanine aminotransferase ≥30 U/L (for male patients) or ≥19 U/L (for female patients) (odds ratio [OR]=2.69, 95% confidence interval [CI]: 1.39 — 5.21, P=0.003), HBV DNA ≥2 000 IU/mL (OR=2.75, 95%CI: 1.38 — 5.48, P=0.004), and liver stiffness measurement (LSM) ≥6.0 kPa (OR=4.57, 95%CI: 2.17 — 9.62, P<0.001) were independent risk factors for significant inflammation. HBV DNA ≥2 000 IU/mL (OR=1.82, 95%CI: 1.01 — 3.32, P=0.049) and LSM ≥6.0 kPa (OR=2.06, 95%CI: 1.23 — 3.43, P=0.006) were independent influencing factors for significant liver fibrosis. ConclusionAmong the patients with indeterminate phase of chronic HBV infection, a substantial proportion of patients have significant liver histopathological damage. Antiviral therapy should be initiated in a timely manner for patients with high-risk factors.

Objective:To investigate the distribution of CGG repeat numbers in the FMR1 gene among reproductive-age women in China, providing data reference for carrier screening and genetic counseling of Fragile X syndrome. Methods:This cross-sectional study recruited 16 610 reproductive-age women from 12 medical institutions between July 2022 and October 2023. Peripheral venous blood samples (3 mL) were collected, and genomic DNA was extracted. The number of CGG repeats in the FMR1 gene was determined using the triplet-primed polymerase chain reaction (TP-PCR) combined with capillary electrophoresis technology. Statistical analyses were performed to assess the prevalence and distribution of CGG repeat expansions. Results:Among 16 610 women of childbearing age, 5 684 (34.220%) women had the same number of CGG repeats in the two alleles of FMR1 gene, and 10 926 (65.780%) women had different numbers of repeats in the two alleles. Among the 33 220 FMR1 alleles in 16 610 women of reproductive age, the most common CGG repeat numbers were 29 [48.645% (16 160/33 220)] and 30 [26.276% (8 729/33 220)], while the most frequent CGG genotype was CGG 29/29 [24.726% (4 107/16 610)]. The CGG repeat numbers of FMR1 gene were normal in 16 498 women (99.326%). Among the 112 women (0.674%) with CGG repeat abnormities, 96 (0.578%) women were classified as intermediate carriers, 15 (0.090%) as premutation carriers, and 1 (0.006%) as a full mutation carrier, whose CGG genotype was (36, >200). Conclusion:In the general reproductive-age female population in China, the normal CGG repeat numbers of the FMR1 gene account for 99.326%, while the intermediate carrier rate is 0.578%, and the combined carrier rate of the premutation and full mutation types is 0.096%.
