BACKGROUND:The causal relationship between modifiable factors such as lifestyle,metabolic characteristics,and nutritional intake and joint sports injuries has been increasingly recognized in clinical studies.However,the exact causal relationship between these modifiable factors and joint sports injuries remains unclear. OBJECTIVE:To investigate the causal relationship between modifiable factors and joint sports injuries using Mendelian randomization to provide a basis for sports injury prevention. METHODS:The GWAS dataset of intervening factors and joint sports injuries was obtained from publicly available data.The causal relationships between lifestyle,metabolic characteristics,nutritional intake,and joint sports injuries were explored using the inverse variance weighting method,the MR-Egger method,and the weighted median method.For sensitivity analyses,Cochran's Q test,MR-Egger regression,leave-one-out method,and MR-PRESSO were used to verify the stability and reliability of the results. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:(1)In terms of lifestyle,coffee(OR=0.29,95%CI:0.10-0.79,P=0.016),and tea consumption(OR=0.41,95%CI=0.19-0.85,P=0.017)were associated with a decreased risk of ankle and foot joint sports injuries,and coffee consumption(OR=3.31,95%CI=1.02-10.73,P=0.046)was potentially causally associated with an increased risk of shoulder joint sports injuries;and never smoking(OR=0.78,95%CI=0.70-0.87,P=1.49×10-5)was significantly causally associated with a decreased risk of ankle and foot joint sports injuries.(2)In terms of metabolic characteristics,calcium levels(OR=0.88,95%CI=0.79-0.98,P=0.017)were potentially causally associated with a decreased risk of wrist and hand joint sports injuries.(3)In terms of nutritional intake,vitamin A intake(OR=1.08,95%CI:1.02-1.13,P=0.007)was potentially causally associated with increased risk of knee joint sports injury.(4)For the sensitivity analysis,Cochran's Q test showed the existence of heterogeneity(P<0.05),so the random effect model was used for the analysis.MR-Egger regression and MR-PRESSO test did not find evidence of pleiotropy(P>0.05),and the leave-one-out method showed that the results were stable after eliminating single nucleotide polymorphisms one by one.(5)This study preliminarily reveals the effects of modifiable factors,such as lifestyle,metabolic characteristics,and nutritional intake,on the risk of joint sports injuries.It provides valuable research evidence and guidance for the prevention of joint sports injuries.

Objective: To investigate the association between the physical fitness index (PFI) and symptoms of depressive, anxiety and stress symptoms among college students, providing a reference for mental health interventions. Methods: From June to September 2025, combined convenience and cluster random sampling approach was used to administer questionnaire surveys and perform physical fitness tests on 2 712 college students from Zhejiang Chinese Medical University. The Depression Anxiety Stress Scales-21 Items (DASS-21) was used to assess mental health status. Chi square test and multivariate Logistic regression analysis were used to determine the associations between the PFI and the PFI component indicators with depressive, anxiety and stress symptoms. Results: The prevalence of depressive, anxiety and stress among college students were 24.26%, 33.22% and 13.68%, respectively. Statistically significant differences in the prevalence of these symptoms were detected across groups differing in sleep quality, physical activity, weekly breakfast frequency, and history of low back or neck pain ( χ 2=9.33-151.83, all P <0.05). After adjusting for confounding factors, Logistic regression revealed that the moderate and high PFI groups had significantly reduced risks of depressive and anxiety compared to the low PFI group ( OR =0.73, 0.63; 0.61, 0.72, all P <0.05). Poor speed (50 m run) and lower body strength (standing long jump) emerged as common risk factors affecting anxiety and depressive symptoms in both male and female college students (all P <0.05). Increased muscle strength (sit up for 1 min) in female students reduced the risk of depressive ( OR =0.81), anxiety ( OR =0.85), and stress symptoms ( OR =0.79) (all P <0.05). Enhanced lung capacity in male students decreased the risk of depressive ( OR =0.84) and anxiety symptoms ( OR =0.85) (both P <0.05). Conclusions The PFI is negatively correlated with depressive and anxiety symptoms among college students with notable gender differences. Insufficient speed and lower body explosive power represent common risk factors for mental health among male and female college students.

Chimeric antigen receptor (CAR)-T cell therapy has achieved remarkable success in the treatment of hematological malignancies. Based on the immunomodulatory capability of CAR-T cells, efforts have turned toward exploring their potential in treating autoimmune diseases. Bibliometric analysis of 210 records from 128 academic journals published by 372 institutions in 40 countries/regions indicates a growing number of publications on CAR-T therapy for autoimmune diseases, covering a range of subtypes such as systemic lupus erythematosus, multiple sclerosis, among others. CAR-T therapy holds promise in mitigating several shortcomings, including the indiscriminate suppression of the immune system by traditional immunosuppressants, and non-sustaining therapeutic levels of monoclonal antibodies due to inherent pharmacokinetic constraints. By persisting and proliferating in vivo, CAR-T cells can offer a tailored and precise therapeutics. This paper reviewed preclinical experiments and clinical trials involving CAR-T and CAR-related therapies in various autoimmune diseases, incorporating innovations well-studied in the field of hematological tumors, aiming to explore a safe and effective therapeutic option for relapsed/refractory autoimmune diseases.

Aim To investigate the enhanced efficacy and reduced toxicity of GanoExtra in combination with cyclophosphamide(CTX)on inhibiting lung metastasis and immune function in mice.Methods The CCK-8 method was used to verify the cytotoxic effects of Gano-Extra on MCF-7 and 4T1 tumor cells.In vivo experi-ment,a mouse model of lung metastasis of breast canc-er was established by injecting 4T1 tumor cells into the tail vein,which was divided into four groups including 4T1 model group,CTX group,GanoExtra group and GanoExtra+CTX group.The control group was set.After 21 days,the mice were euthanized under anes-thesia,and the body weight of the mice was recorded.Average lung index and spleen index were calculated.The mouse spleen lymphocyte transformation experi-ment was used to determine the activity of spleen cells.The NK cell activity assay was used to determine the activity of NK cells.Blood cells were determined in mouse blood samples.Flow cytometry was used to de-termine the levels of CD4+and CD8+T cells in blood samples.ELISA was used to measure the levels of TNF-α and IL-6 in serum.HE staining was used to ob-serve the pathological morphological changes in tumors and various tissues;and CFSE staining was used to de-termine the proliferative effect of GanoExtra on CD8+cells.Results In vitro GanoExtra at 50 mg·L-1 sig-nificantly inhibited the activity of MCF-7 and 4T1 tumor cells.In the breast cancer pulmonary metastasis model,compared with the model group,the spleen in-dex and blood WBCs content were significantly re-duced,while the activity of NK cells,spleen cells,and the proportion of RBCs,CD 3+and CD 8+T cells in the blood were significantly increased.At the end of the treatment,compared with the CTX group,the number of lung metastases and lung index of the Gano-Extra+CTX group were significantly reduced,and the levels of HGB,CD8+cells,IL-6,and TNF-α in the blood of mice were significantly increased.GanoExtra at 10 mg·L-1 significantly promoted the proliferation of CD8+T cells in vitro.Conclusions GanoExtra can enhance the inhibitory effect of CTX on tumor metasta-sis,alleviate adverse reactions such as splenomegaly and pulmonary enlargement caused by CTX,and have a health-promoting function of promoting the prolifera-tion of CD8+T cells to enhance the immune efficacy of the body.

Objective:To investigate the genotype,mutation type,and ethnic distribution characteristics of thalassemia in the population of Hechi area,Guangxi,and to provide a reference basis for prevention and control of thalassemia and eugenic counseling in the region.Methods:Gap-polymerase chain reaction(gap-PCR)and reverse dot blot(RDB)were used for genetic testing on suspected thalassemia persons,and the results were analyzed.Results:Among 29 136 samples,a total of 17 016(58.40％)positive samples for thalassemia genes were detected,with a higher detection rate in males than in females(X2=49.917,P＜0.001).The detection rates of thalassemia genes were significant different among Zhuang,Han,Yao,Mulao,and Maonan ethnic groups(x2=546.121,P＜0.001).The α-thalassemia genotypes were mainly--SEA/αα(16.67％),-α3.7/αα(8.90％),αCSα/αα(6.00％).Additionally,four rare genotypes were detected,including--THAI/αα(47 cases),HKαα/αα(2 cases),--SEA/-α21.9(2 cases),and--THAI/αcsα(1 case).The β-thalassemia genotypes were mainly βCD17/βN(7.49％),βCD41-42/βN(6.70％),βCD71-72/βN(0.44％).108 cases of moderate and severeβ-thalassemia were detected,of which 81 cases had a history of blood transfusion,the transfusion frequency of 60 cases was more than 10 times/year,and 10 cases received bone marrow transplantation.Conclusion:Thalassemia in Hechi area is predominantly deletion type--SEA/αα,the detection rate of thalassemia in ethnic minorities is higher than that in Han population.In this area,moderate and severe β-thalassemia have certain incidence,these patients mostly need regular blood transfusion and iron removal treatment,and very few patients have received bone marrow transplantation.This study provides a certain reference basis for prevention and control of thalassemia and eugenic counseling in the region.

Objective:To investigate and assess hemolytic transfusion reaction in patient with complex and combined anti-Fya and anti-Jkb which so as to provide a safety blood transfusion strategy.Methods:ABO/Rh blood grouping,antibody screening and identification,and Coombs'tests were performed by the routine serological methods include manual tube and automatic blood group analyzer with matching micro-column gel cards from Diagnostic Grifols and Jiangsu LIBO.The hospital information system and laboratory information system were used to collect dada on patients' blood routine tests,liver and kidney function,coagulation,cardiac function,and other clinical indicators before and after blood transfusion were analyzed and compared in conjunction with the patients'clinical manifestations.Results:The patient's blood group was A/CcDEe.Before two transfusion,the anti-body screening were positive which identification were anti-Fya and anti-Fya combined with anti-Jkb respectively,while the Coomb's test were positive with anti-C3 and anti-IgG combined with anti-C3 respectively.No agglutination and hemolysis was observed in saline medium cross-matching test before two transfusion of Fya-red blood cell.But before re-transfusion agglutinated reaction was observed in cross-matching test by DG Gel Coombs,which strength was 2+on whether major or minor side.The patient developed soy sauce urine/hemoglobinuria and fever after transfused Fya-red blood cell again.Primary laboratory indicators were observed to be elevated,include C-reactive protein from 3.06 mg/L to 29.97 mg/L,total bilirubin from 21.4 μmol/L to 276.3 μmol/L,direct bilirubin from 8.4 μmol/L to 135.6 μmol/L,lactate dehydrogenase from 166 U/L to 1453 U/L.Urinary free hemoglobin test was 4+.The main laboratory indicators reflecting the heart,liver,kidney and circulatory coagulation function also have vary increased and gradually returned to normal after a week. Conclusion:Jkb-incompatible transfusion of the Kidd blood group system can lead to acute hemolytic transfusion reaction,but in emergency implementing incompatible transfusion due to IgG antibodies outside of the primary blood group (such as ABO/RhD)can ensure the implementation of emergency operation.

Objective To investigate the incidence rate,clinical characteristics,and prognosis of neonatal stroke in Shenzhen,China.Methods Led by Shenzhen Children's Hospital,the Shenzhen Neonatal Data Collaboration Network organized 21 institutions to collect 36 cases of neonatal stroke from January 2020 to December 2022.The incidence,clinical characteristics,treatment,and prognosis of neonatal stroke in Shenzhen were analyzed.Results The incidence rate of neonatal stroke in 21 hospitals from 2020 to 2022 was 1/15 137,1/6 060,and 1/7 704,respectively.Ischemic stroke accounted for 75％(27/36);boys accounted for 64％(23/36).Among the 36 neonates,31(86％)had disease onset within 3 days after birth,and 19(53％)had convulsion as the initial presentation.Cerebral MRI showed that 22 neonates(61％)had left cerebral infarction and 13(36％)had basal ganglia infarction.Magnetic resonance angiography was performed for 12 neonates,among whom 9(75％)had involvement of the middle cerebral artery.Electroencephalography was performed for 29 neonates,with sharp waves in 21 neonates(72％)and seizures in 10 neonates(34％).Symptomatic/supportive treatment varied across different hospitals.Neonatal Behavioral Neurological Assessment was performed for 12 neonates(33％,12/36),with a mean score of(32±4)points.The prognosis of 27 neonates was followed up to around 12 months of age,with 44％(12/27)of the neonates having a good prognosis.Conclusions Ischemic stroke is the main type of neonatal stroke,often with convulsions as the initial presentation,involvement of the middle cerebral artery,sharp waves on electroencephalography,and a relatively low neurodevelopment score.Symptomatic/supportive treatment is the main treatment method,and some neonates tend to have a poor prognosis.

BACKGROUND:Clinical evidences have suggested a correlation between metabolic factors and sarcopenia.Blood metabolites have been found as biological factors underlying the mechanisms of musculoskeletal disorders.However,the causal relationship between blood metabolites and sarcopenia is unclear. OBJECTIVE:To explore the causal relationship between blood metabolites and sarcopenia-related traits through a two-sample Mendelian randomization analysis and to analyze their metabolic pathways. METHODS:A dataset of 486 blood metabolites and sarcopenia-related traits was obtained from public databases.The inverse variance weighting,MR-Egger and weighted median methods were used to assess the causal relationship of blood metabolites with muscle mass and strength across genders.Sensitivity analyses,including heterogeneity and gene pleiotropy,were performed to explore the robustness of the results.Metabolic pathway analysis of potential causal relationships was performed using the Metaboanayst 5.0 tool. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:A total of 124 metabolites and sarcopenia-related traits were observed to have potential causal relationships(P<0.05).Mannose and 1-arachidonoylglycerophosphocholine were significantly causally associated with an increased muscle mass in males(P<1.03×10-4).Pentadecanoate and glycine were significantly causally associated with decreased muscle mass and muscle strength in females,respectively(P<1.03×10-4).Metabolic pathway analysis identified eight metabolic pathways associated with altered levels of muscle mass and muscle strength in sarcopenia,including the"glyoxylate and dicarboxylate metabolism"and"Glycine,serine and threonine metabolism."The identified metabolites are considered as useful circulating metabolic biomarkers for screening and prevention of sarcopenia in clinical practice,serving as candidate molecules for future mechanistic exploration and drug target selection.
