Objective: To evaluate the effect of community comprehensive management model intervention among patients with dyslipidemia, so as to provide the reference for optimizing community management strategies and improving the target achievement rate for blood lipids among this population. Methods: From May to June 2023, a multi-stage stratified random sampling method was employed to select patients with dyslipidemia from primary healthcare institutions in Jiaxing City, Zhejiang Province. Eligible participants were randomly assigned to either a control group or an intervention group. The control group received routine management, while the intervention group was subjected to a community comprehensive management model in addition to the routine care. Both groups were followed up for 24 months. Data on demographic characteristics, lifestyle behaviors, physical examination indices, and blood biochemical indicators were collected at baseline and after the intervention through questionnaires, physical examinations, and laboratory tests. Changes in obesity rate, central obesity rate, target achievement rates for blood lipids, blood pressure, and blood glucose, as well as lifestyle modifications, were analyzed. Differences between the two groups before and after the intervention were assessed using generalized estimating equations (GEE). Results: The control group consisted of 560 patients, including 303 females (54.11%) and 430 individuals aged ≥65 years (76.79%). The intervention group also included 560 patients, with 300 females (53.57%) and 431 individuals aged ≥65 years (76.96%). Before the intervention, no statistically significant differences were observed between the two groups in terms of gender, age, educational level, history of chronic diseases, and atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease risk stratification (all P>0.05). After 24 months of intervention, interaction effects between group and time were observed for obesity rate, central obesity rate, target achievement rate for blood lipids, target achievement rate for blood glucose, composite target achievement rate, physical activity rate, and medication adherence (all P<0.05). Specifically, the intervention group demonstrated lower rates of obesity and central obesity, and higher target achievement rate of blood lipids, target achievement rate of blood glucose, composite target achievement rate, physical activity rate, and medication adherence compared to the control group. Conclusion The community comprehensive management model contributed to improvements in multiple metabolic parameters (including body weight, waist circumference, blood lipids, and blood glucose) among patients with dyslipidemia, and was associated with increased physical activity rate and medication adherence.

Objective: To investigate the trend in mortality of injury in Jiaxing City, Zhejiang Province, from 2010 to 2022, so as to provide the evidence for developing injury prevention and intervention strategies. Methods: Data on injury mortality in Jiaxing City from 2010 to 2022 were obtained from the Jiaxing Chronic Disease Monitoring Information Management System. Crude mortality was calculated, and standardized mortality was computed using data of the Sixth National Population Census in 2010. Descriptive analysis of injury mortality and cause of injury death was conducted by gender and age. The average annual percent change (AAPC) was used to analyze the trend in mortality of injury from 2010 to 2022. Results: From 2010 to 2022, the crude injury mortality in Jiaxing City was 79.24/100 000, and the standardized mortality was 47.08/105. The crude injury mortality was higher in males than in females (80.51/100 000 vs. 78.01/100 000, P<0.05). The standardized injury mortality for the total population, males, and females showed significant declining trends (AAPC=-2.011%, -2.373% and -1.542%, all P<0.05). The crude injury mortality increased with age (P<0.05), peaking in the age group of ≥85 years (1 806.46/100 000). Decreasing trends were observed in the age groups of 0-<15 years, 15-<45 years, and 45-<65 years (AAPC=-7.794%, -4.698% and -4.521%, all P<0.05), while no significant trend was found in the age group of ≥65 years. The top five causes of injury death were falls (29.96/100 000), motor vehicle traffic accidents (17.81/100 000), drowning (6.50/100 000), suicide (5.40/100 000), and poisoning (0.69/100 000). Drowning was the leading cause of injury death in the age group of 0-<15 years, while falls were the primary cause in the age group of ≥65 years. Motor vehicle traffic accidents were the top cause of injury death in age groups of 15-<45 years and 45-<65 years. From 2010 to 2022, the standardized mortality of falls showed an upward trend (AAPC=1.094%, P<0.05), while the standardized mortality of motor vehicle traffic accidents, drowning, and suicide demonstrated downward trends (AAPC=-7.576%, -2.745% and -2.786%, all P<0.05). Conclusions The standardized injury mortality in Jiaxing City showed an overall downward trend from 2010 to 2022. Falls were the leading cause of injury death, and particular attention should be paid to the prevention and control of falls among the elderly aged ≥65 years.

BACKGROUND:Defective outgrowth of chondrocyte mitophagy causes degenerative chondrocyte pathological changes such as apoptosis and matrix loss.OBJECTIVE:To investigate the effects and possible mechanism of Juanbi Decoction-containing serum on interleukin-1β-induced inflammatory response and apoptosis of rat knee joint chondrocytes.METHODS:Fifty male Sprague-Dawley rats were randomly given saline,Juanbi Decoction in low,medium and high doses(1.24,2.48 and 4.96 g/kg),and celecoxib(positive drug)group.Drug-containing serum was obtained by continuous gavage for 2 weeks.(1)Chondrocytes were isolated and randomly divided into control group,interleukin-1β group,Juanbi Decoction low,medium and high dose containing serum groups and positive drug serum group.Cell counting kit-8 assay was used to detect cell viability;immunofluorescence double staining was used to detect mitophagy level;immunofluorescence was used to detect the phosphorylated AMP-activated protein kinase level;western blot was used to detect the expression of PTEN induced putative kinase 1/Parkin pathway-related protein and cleaved caspase-3;and ELISA was used to detect inflammatory factor level.(2)PTEN induced putative kinase 1 siRNA and Compound C were used for intervention to explore the role of AMP-activated protein kinase/PTEN induced putative kinase 1/Parkin pathway in the regulation of mitophagy by Juanbi Decoction-containing serum.RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:(1)Compared with the control group,chondrocyte survival,type II collagen,phosphorylated AMP-activated protein kinase,PTEN induced putative kinase 1,Parkin,and microtubule-associated proteins 1 light chain 3 protein levels,and mitophagy levels were significantly lower in the interleukin-1β group(P<0.05),while cleaved caspase-3 protein levels,interleukin-6,interleukin-8 and tumor necrosis factor-α levels were significantly higher(P<0.05).Compared with the interleukin-1β group,opposite changes in all the above indexes were observed in Juanbi Decoction low,medium and high dose containing serum groups and positive drug serum group(P<0.05).(2)PTEN induced putative kinase 1 siRNA significantly inhibited the effect of Juanbi Decoction-containing serum on mitophagy in interleukin-1β-treated chondrocytes and reduced the protective effect of Juanbi Decoction-containing serum on interleukin-1β-induced inflammation and apoptosis in chondrocytes;Compound C reversed the effect of Juanbi Decoction-containing serum on the PTEN induced putative kinase 1/Parkin signaling pathway in interleukin-1β-treated chondrocytes.To conclude,Juanbi Decoction-containing serum inhibits chondrocyte inflammation and apoptosis by affecting the level of mitochondrial autophagy,thereby attenuating interleukin-1β-induced chondrocyte degradation by a mechanism that may be related to the regulation of the AMP-activated protein kinase/PTEN induced putative kinase 1/Parkin pathway.

Nonunion of osteoporotic vertebral fractures (OVF), predominantly affecting the elderly, can lead to intractable pain, vertebral collapse, progressive kyphotic deformity, and neurological impairment, significantly compromising patients′ quality of life. There exists considerable debate on diagnosis and management of OVF, encompassing key issues such as clinical diagnosis and staging criteria for nonunion, surgical indications and procedure selection, and postoperative rehabilitation planning. Currently, there lacks standardized clinical guideline and expert consensus on the diagnosis and management of OVF nonunion in China. To address this gap, Minimally Invasive Surgery Group of Chinese Orthopedic Association, Osteoporosis Committee of Chinese Association of Orthopedic Surgeons, Prevention and Rehabilitation Committee for Osteoporosis of Chinese Association of Rehabilitation Medicine and Minimally Invasive Orthopedic Surgery Branch of China Association for Geriatric Care jointly organized domestic experts in spinal surgery, endocrinology, and rehabilitation to formulate the Clinical guideline for the diagnosis and treatment for nonunion of osteoporotic vertebral fractures ( version 2025), based on existing literature and clinical experience and adhering to principles of scientific rigor and practicality. The guideline provided 13 evidence-based recommendations encompassing diagnosis and treatment of OVF nonunion, aiming to standardize its clinical management.

Objective: To investigate the current status and influencing factors of overweight and obesity among adults in Jiaxing City, Zhejiang Province, so as to provide a basis for developing targeted weight management measures. Methods: In 2024, a multistage stratified random cluster sampling method was employed to recruit permanent residents aged ≥18 years from Jiaxing City for questionnaire surveys. Data on basic information, lifestyle behaviors, and history of chronic diseases were collected. Height and body weight were measured, and overweight and obesity were determined based on body mass index (BMI). The influencing factors of overweight and obesity among adults were analyzed by a multivariable logistic regression model. Results: Totally 10 509 questionnaires were allocated, and 9 802 valid questionnaires were recovered, with an effective recovery rate of 93.27%. Among the respondents, 4 808 (49.05%) were males and 4 994 (50.95%) were females, with a mean age of (51.27±17.26) years. A total of 4 884 overweight and obesity individuals were identified, with a detection rate of 49.83%. Multivariable logistic regression analysis showed that gender (male, OR=1.719, 95%CI: 1.578-1.873), age (≥60 years, OR=0.802, 95%CI: 0.652-0.986), educational level (bachelor and above, OR=0.640, 95%CI: 0.518-0.791), marital status (being married/cohabiting, OR=1.224, 95%CI: 1.009-1.486), adequate nut intake (OR=0.910, 95%CI: 0.832-0.995), hypertension (OR=2.462, 95%CI: 2.219-2.732), and dyslipidemia (OR=1.629, 95%CI: 1.444-1.837) were statistically associated with overweight and obesity among adults. Conclusion The detected rate of overweight and obesity among adults in Jiaxing City was relatively high, and was mainly associated with gender, age, education level, marital status, nut intake, hypertension, and dyslipidemia.

BACKGROUND: Disease-modifying therapies have been approved for the treatment of relapsing multiple sclerosis (RMS). The present study aims to examine the safety of teriflunomide in Chinese patients with RMS. METHODS: This non-randomized, multi-center, 24-week, prospective study enrolled RMS patients with variant (c.421C>A) or wild type ABCG2 who received once-daily oral teriflunomide 14 mg. The primary endpoint was the relationship between ABCG2 polymorphisms and teriflunomide exposure over 24 weeks. Safety was assessed over the 24-week treatment with teriflunomide. RESULTS: Eighty-two patients were assigned to variant ( n  = 42) and wild type groups ( n  = 40), respectively. Geometric mean and geometric standard deviation (SD) of pre-dose concentration (variant, 54.9 [38.0] μg/mL; wild type, 49.1 [32.0] μg/mL) and area under plasma concentration-time curve over a dosing interval (AUC tau ) (variant, 1731.3 [769.0] μg∙h/mL; wild type, 1564.5 [1053.0] μg∙h/mL) values at steady state were approximately similar between the two groups. Safety profile was similar and well tolerated across variant and wild type groups in terms of rates of treatment emergent adverse events (TEAE), treatment-related TEAE, grade ≥3 TEAE, and serious adverse events (AEs). No new specific safety concerns or deaths were reported in the study. CONCLUSION: ABCG2 polymorphisms did not affect the steady-state exposure of teriflunomide, suggesting a similar efficacy and safety profile between variant and wild type RMS patients.
