ObjectiveTo investigate the mechanism of action of modified Shaofu Zhuyutang in antagonizing cellular pyroptosis and fibrosis in ectopic endometrial tissues of endometriosis through the Toll-like receptor 4/nuclear factor-κB/NOD-like receptor protein 3 （TRL4/NF-κB/NLPR3） signaling pathway. MethodsSeventy-two SPF-grade female SD rats were randomly divided into a sham-operated group （n = 12） and a modeling group （n = 60）. The rats in the sham-operated group underwent a caesarean section， while the rats in the modeling group were used to establish an endometriosis model through the auto-transplantation method. After successful modeling， the animals were randomly divided into the model group， progesterone group （0.25 mg·kg^-1）， and modified Shaofu Zhuyutang low-， medium-， and high-dose groups （7.5， 15， 30 g·kg^-1）， with 12 animals in each group. After 4 weeks of drug administration， voluntary activity and heat pain latency were observed. The rats were sacrificed for tissue collection， and Masson staining were used to observe histopathological changes in the endometrial tissues. Enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay （ELISA） was used to measure serum levels of interleukin-18 （IL-18）， interleukin-1β （IL-1β）， tumor necrosis factor-α （TNF-α）， and transforming growth factor-β （TGF-β）. Immunohistochemistry （IHC） was used to detect the protein expression area of tumor necrosis factor-related factor 6 （TRAF6） and NLPR3 in the endometrial tissues. Immunofluorescence （IF） was used to detect the relative fluorescence intensity of Caspase-1 and gasdermin D （GSDMD） in the endometrial tissues. Western blot was employed to measure the relative expression of TRL4， myeloid differentiation factor 88 （MyD88）， TRAF6， NF-κB p65， phosphorylated NF-κB p65 （p-NF-κB p65）， and NLPR3 proteins in endometrial tissues. Real-time fluorescence quantitative polymerase chain reaction （Real-time PCR） was used to detect the mRNA expression of TRL4， MyD88， TRAF6， NF-κB， and NLPR3 in the endometrial tissues. ResultsCompared with the sham-operated group， rats in the model group showed reduced voluntary activity and shorter heat pain latency. Serum levels of IL-18， IL-1β， TNF-α， and TGF-β were elevated. The relative expression areas of TRAF6 and NLPR3 proteins were increased， and the relative fluorescence intensity of Caspase-1 and GSDMD was enhanced. The relative expression of TRL4， MyD88， TRAF6， NF-κB p65， p-NF-κB p65， and NLPR3 proteins， along with the expression of TRL4， MyD88， TRAF6， NF-κB， and NLPR3 mRNA， were significantly increased （P<0.01）. Compared with the model group， rats in the progesterone group and the modified Shaofu Zhuyutang medium- and high-dose groups exhibited improved voluntary activity， longer heat pain latency， the fibrosis of endometrial tissue is alleviated. Serum levels of IL-18， IL-1β， TNF-α， and TGF-β were decreased. The relative expression areas of TRAF6 and NLPR3 proteins decreased， and the relative fluorescence intensity of Caspase-1 and GSDMD weakened. The relative expression of TRL4， MyD88， TRAF6， p-NF-κB p65， NLPR3 proteins， and TRL4， MyD88， TRAF6， NF-κB， and NLPR3 mRNA expression were reduced （P<0.05， P<0.01）. ConclusionModified Shaofu Zhuyutang may play a therapeutic role in endometriosis by interfering with key proteins in the TRL4/NF-κB/NLPR3 signaling pathway， reducing NLRP3 inflammasome-induced cellular pyroptosis， antagonizing the fibrosis process in ectopic endometrial tissues， improving the inflammatory microenvironment in the pelvic cavity， and alleviating pain.

Objective:To investigate the impact of early invasive arterial blood pressure (IBP) monitoring on survival and neurological outcomes in out-of-hospital cardiac arrest (OHCA) patients undergoing extracorporeal cardiopulmonary resuscitation (ECPR).Methods:This retrospective cohort study analyzed 44 OHCA patients receiving ECPR between January 2021 and January 2023. Patients were divided into: Early intervention group : IBP established within 3 min of ECMO initiation; Late intervention group : IBP established after ICU admission. Baseline characteristics, ECMO parameters, and clinical outcomes were compared. Multivariable logistic regression (adjusted for age, initial rhythm, etc.) and Spearman's correlation were used.Results:This study included a total of 44 patients treated with OHCA and ECPR, divided into an early intervention group of 23 cases and a late intervention group of 21 cases. The early intervention group showed significantly higher: Survival to discharge (43.5% vs. 9.5%, P<0.05), Good neurological recovery (CPC 1-2: 34.8% vs. 9.5%, P<0.05).Early intervention independently predicted survival (adjusted OR=18.84, 95% CI:1.97-179.98, P=0.01). Stratified analysis by pH (cutoff 7.0) demonstrated consistent benefits in both pH>7.0 ( aOR=0.392, 95% CI:0.106-0.678) and pH≤7.0 subgroups ( aOR=0.385, 95% CI: 0.075-0.695; interaction P=0.183). Early IBP positively correlated with CPC scores ( ρ=0.40, P=0.007). Conclusions:Early IBP monitoring significantly improves survival and neurological outcomes in OHCA-ECPR patients, supporting its integration into standardized protocols.

Objective:To construct and validate the risk prediction model of osteoporosis (OP) in the middle-aged and elderly healthy physical examination population.Methods:In this cross-sectional study, 18 030 middle-aged and elderly people with bone mineral density tested in Health Management Center of Guangxi Zhuang Autonomous Region Hospital from January 2020 to December 2022 were selected. The general data, physical examination index and biochemical blood index were collected. The subjects were divided into training set (12 621 cases) and validation set (5 409 cases) in a ratio of 7∶3 with the simple random sampling method. The variables were screened with minimum LASSO regression and logistic regression and the corresponding nomogram prediction model for the risk of osteoporosis in the middle-aged and elderly health examination population was established. The performance of the nomogram model was evaluated with the area under the receiver operating characteristic curve (ROC AUC), specificity, sensitivity, calibration curve (CAL), and decision curve (DCA).Results:The results of LASSO regression and multivariate logistic regression in training set showed that gender, age, body mass index, hip circumference, waist circumference, systolic blood pressure, total cholesterol, glutamyl transpeptidase and albumin/globulin ratio were the independent best predictors of OP risk in the middle-aged and elderly health examination population (all P<0.05). The ROC AUC-value of the training set was 0.895 (95% CI: 0.886-0.904), with a sensitivity of 87.25% and a specificity of 85.01%. The ROC AUC value of the validation set was 0.892 (95% CI: 0.886-0.898), with a sensitivity of 83.74% and a specificity of 82.46%. The CAL showed a C-index value of 0.790 in the training set and a C-index value of 0.784 in validation set. The CALs all showed deviation correction and obvious curves similar to the ideal line. DCA showed that when the OP risk threshold probability of the training set was 45%-93%, and the OP risk threshold probability of the validation set was 45%-92%, the nomogram model had better efficacy in predicting OP risk in the middle-aged and elderly physical examination population, and the two results were still relatively consistent. Both CAL and DCA showed good performance. Conclusion:This study establishes a practical prediction model for osteoporosis risk in the middle-aged and elderly population, it can provide an early warning for the timely detection of OP risk for the middle-aged and elderly people.

Objective:To understand the current status of pubertal sexual characteristics development of girls aged 6-18 years in Tongzhou District of Beijing and to compare the differences in sexual characteristics development among girls characterized as thin, normal, overweight, and obese.Methods:A cross-sectional survey was conducted among 2 844 girls aged 6-18 years in Tongzhou District of Beijing from September 2022 to July 2023. The developmental stages of breast and pubic hair were assessed on site, and menarche status was inquired. Weight and height were measured. The girls were subsequently characterized into thin, normal, overweight and obese groups. Basic information (including family and personal history) was obtained through questionnaires. Probit probability unit regression was applied to calculate the age of each Tanner stage of sexual characteristics development and the age of menarche. The χ 2 test was applied to compare the counting data between two or multiple groups. Results:A total of 2 844 girls were surveyed and 2 704 girls met the inclusion criteria, resulting in a valid response rate of 95.1%. Among these girls, 1 105 (40.9%) were aged 6-9 years, 1 053 (38.9%) were aged 10-13 years, and 546 (20.2%) were aged 14-18 years. The of height-for-age Z-score (HAZ), weight-for-age Z-score (WAZ), and body mass index-for-age Z-score (BAZ) were 0.46(-0.23,1.16), 0.69(-0.16,1.67), and 0.67(-0.27,1.73) respectively. The prevalences of thin, overweight, and obesity were respectively 1.7% (45/2 704), 17.3% (467/2 704), and 19.9% (538/2 704), respectively. There were 45 girls in the thin group, 1 654 girls in the normal weight group, 1 005 girls in the overweight and obesity group. The age of Tanner stage breast 2 (B2), Tanner stage pubic hair 2 (P2), and menarche was 9.0 (95% CI 8.9-9.1), 10.5 (95% CI 10.4-10.6), and 11.4 (95% CI 11.3-1.5) years, respectively. The current status of breast and pubic hair maturity in girls with pubertal development shows that 64.6% (1 211/1 874) of these girls had breast development preceding pubic hair development, 32.4% (607/1 874) had concurrent breast and pubic hair development, and 3.0% (56/1 874) had pubic hairs development preceding breast development. The interval age between B2 and B5 was 4.7 (95% CI 4.6-4.8) years, between P2 and P5 was 4.5 (95% CI 4.4-4.6) years, and between B2 and menarche was 2.4 (95% CI 2.3-2.5) years. The ages of sexual characteristics development in overweight and obese groups were earlier than that in normal and thin groups. The ages of B2 in thin, normal, overweight, and obese groups were 10.0 (95% CI 9.5-10.6), 9.3 (95% CI 9.2-9.4), and 8.6 (95% CI 8.4-8.7) years, respectively. The age of menarche in thin, normal, overweight, and obese groups were 13.1 (95% CI 12.4-13.7), 11.6 (95% CI 11.4-11.7), and 11.1 (95% CI 11.0-11.2) years, respectively. The interval ages between B2 and B5 and between P2 and P5 was 4.5 and 4.1 years, respectively in the overweight and obese groups, and those in normal group and thin group was 4.7 and 4.5 years, 4.6 and 4.7 years, respectively. Conclusions:The ages of sexual characteristics development and menarche tend in Tongzhou District of Beijing to be earlier than that being reported of Beijing's survey 20 years ago. Girls characterized as overweight and obese not only start puberty at an earlier age than girls of normal weight, but also have a shorter developmental process.

Objective To analyze the effects of arthroscopic meniscus treatment on knee osteoarthritis on the effective rate,VAS score,HSS score and TNF-α level.Methods We selected 86 patients with knee osteoarthritis caused by meniscus injury who were treated in our hospital from June 2019 to May 2020 as the research subjects.The treatment method was selected according to the patient's wishes,with 43 patients who chose conventional conservative treatment included in the control group and 43 patients who chose arthroscopic meniscus therapy included in the study group.The treatment effectiveness,visual ana-logue scale(VAS)score,HSS knee joint score and tumor necrosis factor-α(TNF-α)index levels were compared between the two groups of patients.Results The effective rate of treatment in the study group was significantly higher than that in the control group(P＜0.05);there was no significant difference between the study group and the control group in the VAS score,HSS score,and TNF-α level before treatment(P＞0.05).After treatment,the VAS score,HSS score and TNF-α level of the group were improved.The VAS score and TNF-α level of the study group after treatment were lower than those of the control group(P＜0.05),and the HSS score was higher than the control group.Group(P＜0.05).Conclusion The arthroscopic meniscus treatment for patients with knee osteoarthritis has a significant effect,which can effectively reduce the pain and inflammation of the patients and improve the function of the knee joint.

Objective To explore the distribution of CYP2C19,MTHFR,SLCO1B1,and APOE gene poly-morphisms in patients with acute cerebral infarction,so as to provide theoretical basis for individualized drug treatment.Methods A total of 400 patients with acute cerebral infarction admitted to the hospital from 2020 to 2022 were selected as the research subjects,and the polymorphisms of CYP2C19,MTHFR,SLCO1B1 and APOE genes were tested by PCR fluorescene probe method,and the polymorphism distribution of those genes was analyzed.Results In patients with acute cerebral infarction,44.25％of CYP2C19 gene phenotype were EM type,and 9.75％of CYP2C19 gene phenotype were PM type.The proportion of mutations at the C677T locus of the MTHFR gene(CT type+TT type)was 78.50％,CC type accounted for 21.50％.78.75％of the SLCO1B1 genotypes were type Ⅰ wild type,and 1.50％SLCO1B1 gene phenotypes were type Ⅲ homozygous mutant type.The E2 and E3 types accounted for 84.25％of the APOE gene phenotype,while the E4 type ac-counted for 15.75％.Conclusion The distribution of CYP2C19,MTHFR,SLCO1B1 and APOE gene poly-morphisms in 400 acute cerebral infarction patients is analyzed,providing data support for guiding individual-ized medication in the population of acute cerebral infarction patients and of great significance for achieving safe medication.

Objective To investigate the clinical application and safety of DSA-guided infusion port implantation via internal jugular vein,subclavian vein and axillary vein.Methods A total of 827 patients with malignant tumors,who underwent DSA-guided intravenous infusion port implantation at the Jiangyin Municipal People's Hospital of China between March 28,2016 and June 28,2018,were enrolled in this study.According to the used approach in the port implantation,the patients were divided into internal jugular vein group(group A,n=125),subclavian vein group(group B,n=87),and axillary vein group(group C,n=615).The success rate of puncturing and the incidence of complications were compared between each other among the three groups.Results The success rates of the DSA-guided first-time puncturing in group A,B and C were 98.40％(123/125),94.25％(82/87),and 97.89％(602/615)respectively,the difference was statistically significant(P＜0.05);the success rate of puncturing in group B was lower than that in group C,and among the other groups there was no statistically significant difference(P＞0.05).All patients were followed up for a mean period of(15.56±2.91)months(range of 3-26 months).The overall incidence of postoperative early complications was 3.75％,which in group A was 4.00％(5/125),in group B was 9.20％(8/87),and in group C was 2.93％(18/615),and the incidence of complications in group B was obviously higher than that in group C(P＜0.0167).There was no statistically significant difference in the incidence of various complications between each other among the three groups(P＞0.05).The overall incidence of postoperative long-term complications was 4.72％(39/827),which in group A was 4.80％,in group B was 14.95％,and in group C was 3.25％,and the incidence of complications in group B was strikingly higher than that in group A and group C,the difference was statistically significant(P＜0.05).Comparison of groups for the rates of various complications showed that the incidence of catheter fracture in group B was higher than that in group C,and the clipping syndrome occurred only in group B,the difference was statistically significant(P＜0.0167).There was no significant difference in the incidence of other complications between each other among the three groups(P＞0.05).The abnormal port-taking rate was 1.45％,including 3 patients in group A,7 patients in group B,and 2 patients in group C.The postoperative abnormal port-taking rate in group B was the highest(8.05％),which was significantly different from that in group C(P＜0.0167).Conclusion For intravenous infusion port implantation,axillary vein approach is clinically safe,comfortable,minimally-invasive and highly-efficient method,it is superior to internal jugular vein approach and subclavian vein approach in effectively reducing the incidence of complications and improving the postoperative abnormal port-taking rate of patients.Therefore,this technique can be regarded as a first choice in clinical practice.(J Intervent Radiol,2023,32:1212-1216)

Objective: To explore the relationship between prepregnancy body mass index, weight gain during pregnancy with preschool obesity and body composition in offspring, so as to provide evidence for gestational weight gain and childhood obesity prevention. Methods: A total of 1 333 preschool children were recruited from 3 kindergartens in Tianjin from September to December 2020. Structured questionnaire was used to collect children s lifestyle information. Height, weight and body fat mass of children were assessed, and body fat percentage (FM%), fat mass index (FMI) and non fat mass index (FFMI) were calculated. Maternal medical records were collected and the mothers were grouped according to their prepregnancy weight status and weight gain during pregnancy. χ 2 test, t test, linear regression model and Logistic regression were used to analyze the differences of obesity and body composition among different groups. Results: The prevalence of overweight and obesity in preschoolers was 12.7% and 7.7%. After adjusting maternal age and delivery, gestational age, gender, age and lifestyle of children, the correlation between maternal pre pregnancy BMI,gestational weight gain with obesity and body composition indexes of children in preschool age was statistically significant ( P <0.05). For mothers with normal weight before pregnancy, excessive weight gain during pregnancy increased risk of high FM% and high FMI in offspring ( OR=1.81, 1.68, P <0.05). There was no significant correlation between maternal weight gain during pregnancy with offspring obesity and body composition among mothers with prepregnant overweight or obesity. Conclusion Maternal weight status before pregnancy and weight gain during pregnancy are correlated with obesity and body composition in the preschool age of offspring. It is suggested that mothers should maintain appropriate weight status before and during pregnancy.

Objective:To assess the predictive values of bioelectrical impedance analysis(BIA)-measured body fat indices to abnormal lipid profiles, and to preliminary propose optimal cut-off values of body fat in children and adolescents.Methods:Children and adolescents, aged 6-16 years, were selected from 30 schools (8 primary schools, 21 middle schools and one 12-year education school) in Dongcheng, Tongzhou, Fangshan and Miyun districts of Beijing by adopting a stratified cluster sampling method from November 2017 to January 2018.Questionnaire survey, body mass index(BMI), body fat mass index (FMI), fat mass percentage (FMP) and four lipid profiles were conducted.Results:A total of 14 309 participants, aged (11.0±3.3) years, were enrolled in the analysis, with 49.9% boys.In boys and girls, the percentile values ( P60- P95) fitted by FMI and FMP with K-median-coefficient of variation(LMS) method were taken as the cutting points, and P75 values were selected as the cut-off points of excessive body fat for their better sensitivity, specificity, predictive value and area under curve (AUC) for identification of abnormal lipid profiles.Boys with FMI above P75 accounted for 28% of the total population, and controlling boys with FMI below P75 could prevent dyslipidemia of 8%-57%.FMI in girl population occupied about 26% of the above, and controlling FMI in girl population below this cut-off point may prevent dyslipidemia from 8%-42%.FMP observed similar results to FMI.Assessed by FMI or FMP with P75 cut-off values, adiposity performed better than BMI for recognizing abnormal lipid profiles in boys (AUC: 52.4%-69.6% vs.50.2%-67.1%, P<0.05) rather than in girls ( P>0.05). In addition, when FMI or FMP beyond P90, the specificity of each abnormal lipid profiles was around 90%. Conclusions:The recommend cut-off points for body fat may be to assess children′s adiposity, and can be applied in preventive activities.
