Recently, diffusion models have emerged as a promising paradigm for molecular design and optimization. However, most diffusion-based molecular generative models focus on modeling 2D graphs or 3D geometries, with limited research on molecular sequence diffusion models. The International Union of Pure and Applied Chemistry (IUPAC) names are more akin to chemical natural language than the Simplified Molecular Input Line Entry System (SMILES) for organic compounds. In this work, we apply an IUPAC-guided conditional diffusion model to facilitate molecular editing from chemical natural language to chemical language (SMILES) and explore whether the pre-trained generative performance of diffusion models can be transferred to chemical natural language. We propose DiffIUPAC, a controllable molecular editing diffusion model that converts IUPAC names to SMILES strings. Evaluation results demonstrate that our model outperforms existing methods and successfully captures the semantic rules of both chemical languages. Chemical space and scaffold analysis show that the model can generate similar compounds with diverse scaffolds within the specified constraints. Additionally, to illustrate the model's applicability in drug design, we conducted case studies in functional group editing, analogue design and linker design.

Objective: To investigate morphological differences between obstructive and non-obstructive coronary artery disease (CAD) patients using computer-aided image analysis, and identify color and texture features for traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) syndrome differentiation. Methods: This prospective study enrolled patients undergoing coronary computed tomography angiography (CTA) at the Affiliated Hospital of Liaoning University of Traditional Chinese Medicine between May 1, 2024 and August 7, 2025. Based on CTA results, patients were categorized into obstructive CAD and non-obstructive CAD groups. Standardized tongue images were acquired using a dedicated mobile application (Traditional Chinese Medicine Tongue Image-Assisted Diagnosis System) and analyzed for the overall tongue surface and three macroscopic features (tooth marks, fissures, and red dots) from which high-dimensional color and texture parameters were extracted. Multi-scale texture features were derived using spatial-domain Laplacian pyramid and frequency-domain wavelet transform methods. Dimensionality reduction and feature selection were performed using principal component analysis (PCA) and random forest with 5-fold cross-validation. Feature stability was assessed using Hodges-Lehmann estimator and Cliff’s δ. A multi-view XGBoost model was developed to differentiate the two groups and evaluated on a temporally independent validation set using accuracy and the area under the receiver operating characteristic curve (AUC). SHapley Additive exPlanations (SHAP) analysis was applied to interpret model decisions. Results: This study analyzed 373 CAD patients, including 167 with obstructive CAD and 206 with non-obstructive CAD according to CTA results. The whole cohort was divided into training set (n = 316, obstructive : non-obstructive = 142 : 174 ) and validation set (n = 57, obstructive : non-obstructive = 25 : 32), with balanced baseline characteristics (P > 0.05). Macroscopic tongue analysis revealed that patients with obstructive CAD had fewer tooth marks [odds ratio (OR) = 0.43, P < 0.05] and red dots (OR = 0.46, P < 0.05). High-dimensional color analysis identified pronounced intergroup differences, most notably a reduction in hue values in the hue-saturation-intensity (HSI) color space among obstructive CAD patients (Cliff’s δ = – 0.31, P = 2.72 × 10–6; Hodges-Lehmann estimator: – 0.31). PCA results suggested that tongue surface features explained the highest proportion of variance (48.2%). Random forest screening identified 77 stable features across all tongue regions, with wavelet-transformed texture features demonstrating the highest importance. The multi-view XGBoost fusion model achieved an accuracy of 75% and an AUC of 0.779 in the independent validation set. SHAP analysis identified the wavelet-based feature—left-handed lower-level gray-level size zone matrix zone variance (LHL_glszm_ZoneVariance) as the top predictor, accounting for 40.6% of the model's decision variance, and indicated that 85.3% of the predictive power came from wavelet-based texture features. Conclusion This study has provided objective evidence for the TCM concept that “the tongue reflects the heart” by identifying distinct morphological and colorimetric tongue patterns in patients with obstructive CAD through artificial intelligence (AI)-driven image analysis, and the promising performance of the computational model suggests its potential as a non-invasive adjunctive tool for CAD assessment.

Objective To screen Cuproptosis genes and characteristic genes for differential prognosis in acute mye-loid leukemia(AML)and explore their prognosis in AML as well as their biological roles and correlations in the immune and tumor microenvironment.Methods AML clinical,transcriptome,genomic,and copy number data were downloaded from three major databases,TCGA,GEO,and UCSC,and Cuproptosis genes were collected from published studies.From the perspective of multiomics,the effects of Cuproptosis gene and characteristic gene on survival,immunity,tumor microenvironment,stem cell correlation and drug sensitivity were studied by various bioinformatics methods,meta-analysis and secondary typing.Results One Cuproptosis gene was identified as a differential prognostic gene in AML and five characteristic genes were identified as influencing the prognosis of AML patients by influencing Cuproptosis,and a prognostic model was established.The differential genes were mainly concentrated in mitochondrial activity,REDOX enzyme and energy metabolism.In terms of immunity,macrophage M0,neutrophils,activated memory CD4 T cells and Tregs were positively correlated with risk score,while macro-phage M2,resting mast cells,immature CD4 T cells,helper follicular T cells and memory B cells were negatively correlated with risk score.In terms of tumor microenvironment,the immune cell score of the low-risk group was lower than that of the high-risk group,and in the total score,the tumor microenvironment score of the low-risk group was also lower than that of the high-risk group,indicating that the tumor purity of the high-risk group was lower than that of the low-risk group.However,there was no significant association between stem cells in the high-risk and low-risk groups,and a total of 14 drugs were found to be sensitive to treat AML.Conclusion Cuproptosis gene and characteristic gene are closely related to immune and tumor microenvironment in AML by constructing a prognostic model of AML.

This article reported a patient who initially presented with insomnia complaints and was subsequently diagnosed with severe obstructive sleep apnea （OSA） on polysomnography （PSG）. The patient tried continuous positive airway pressure （CPAP）but gave up because wear the ventilator made it more difficult to fall asleep. Then the patient only received group cognitive behavioral therapy for insomnia （CBT-I）， which not only alleviated insomnia severity but also promoted severe OSA into mild status. Such case suggested that， firstly， due to the high comorbidity of insomnia and OSA， evaluation of OSA should be considered a part worth enough attention of the clinical diagnosis and treatment of insomnia patients. Secondly， by relieving insomnia， CBT-I can alleviate both nocturnal apnea and daytime somnolence in patients with comorbid insomnia and sleep apnoea （COMISA）， so the application of CBT-I should be emphasized in the treatment of such patients. ［Funded by the Central Government-guided Local Science and Technology Development Fund Project （number， 2022ZY0028）］

Objective:To explore the relationship between the triglyceride glucose (TyG) index and the risk of developing hypertension among rural Chinese adults.Methods:A prospective cohort study was conducted from 2007 to 2008, involving 20 194 adults selected through random cluster sampling from a rural community in Luoyang City, Henan Province. Follow-ups were carried out in 2013-2014 and 2018-2020. After excluding participants with hypertension at baseline, those with missing TyG index data, individuals who passed away during follow-up, and those with incomplete hypertension status at the second visit, 9 802 participants were included in the analysis. Baseline and follow-up assessments included questionnaire interviews, physical measurements (including blood pressure), and blood sample collection for fasting lipid and glucose levels. Participants were divided into four groups according to TyG index quartiles, and a modified Poisson regression model was utilized to assess the association between TyG index quartiles and hypertension risk.Results:The study cohort comprised 9 802 participants with a median age of 48 (39, 57) years, including 3 803 males (38.80%). Participants were distributed across TyG index quartiles as follows: TyG<8.2 group (2 224 individuals), TyG 8.2-8.5 group (2 653 individuals), TyG 8.6-8.9 (2 441 individuals), and TyG≥9.0 (2 484 individuals). Over a follow-up period of (11.1±1.3) years, 3 378 subjects developed hypertension, resulting in a cumulative incidence of 34.46% (3 378/9 802). The risk of hypertension increased with higher TyG index quartiles ( Ptrend<0.05). Compared to the TyG<8.2, the TyG 8.2-8.5 ( RR=1.11, 95% CI 1.01-1.22, P=0.023), TyG 8.6-8.9 ( RR=1.16, 95%CI 1.06-1.27, P=0.023), and TyG≥9.0 ( RR=1.20, 95%CI 1.10-1.31, P=0.023) exhibited increased hypertension risk after adjusting for age, gender, educational level, and other potential confounders. Subgroup analyses based on gender and age at baseline yielded results consistent with the main analysis. Conclusions:The TyG index is positively correlated with the risk of developing hypertension in the rural adult population.

Objective:To discuss the association between occupational acid fog exposure and accelerated biological aging of the workers,and to clarify its related risk factors.Methods:A total of 341 male workers exposed to occupational acid fog and 201 male workers without occupational exposure were selected as the study subjects,and they were divided into exposure group and control group,respectively.The general informations of the subjects in two groups were collected through questionnaires and physical examinations.The levels of red blood cell count(RBC),platelet count(PLT),albumin(ALB),urea(Urea),creatinine(CR),triglycerides(TG),total cholesterol(TC),glycated hemoglobin(HBA1c),and high-sensitivity C-reactive protein(Hs-CRP)in serum of the subjects in two groups were detected.The Klemera-Doubal method(KDM)was used to construct the composite aging measure,KDM-biological age(BA)(KDM-BA).The model parameters were trained using samples from the 2009 China Health and Nutrition Survey(CHNS)Database to calculate the BA acceleration of the subjects in two groups;stratified analysis based on the population characteristics was conducted to analyze the BA of the subjects in two groups with different population characteristics;generalized linear model was used to analyze the factors influencing BA acceleration due to acid fog exposure.Results:The model parameters were trained using samples from the 2009 CHNS Database,including 8 133 cases aged 20-79 years,of which 3 788 were male.The levels of Urea,CR,HBA1c,ALB,and TC,as well as systolic blood pressure(SBP),total working years,sleep duration,and body mass index(BMI)of the subjects between two groups had significant differences(P<0.05).Compared with control group,the BA acceleration of the subjects in exposure group was significantly increased(P<0.05).In entire population and exposure group,the BA acceleration in the smokers was significantly higher than that in the non-smokers(P<0.05).In entire population,control group,and exposure group,the BA accelerations of the subjects in different BMI groups were significantly decreased with the increase of BMI(P<0.05).Compared with control group,the BA acceleration of the subjects in exposure group was significantly increased(P<0.05),including those under 40 years old,with total working years of 4-7 years,Han nationality,unmarried,smokers,and sleep duration 6-7 h,and with overweight.Acid fog exposure,smoking,and BMI were associated with the BA acceleration(β=0.72,95%CI:0.24-1.21;β=0.59,95%CI:0.11-1.06;β=-0.29,95%CI:-0.35—-0.22).Conclusion:Occupational acid fog exposure may accelerate the biological aging in the workers,and acid fog is a risk factor to accelerate the biological aging of the body.

Objective To investigate the mechanism by which Ginkgo biloba extract reduces myocardial injury in rats with myocardial infarction(MI).Methods Bioinformatics was used to identify key targets of Ginkgo biloba extract in the treatment of MI in rats.An MI rat model was established via coronary artery ligation.Rats were randomly assigned to the model group,Betaloc ZOK group(2.5 mg/kg),and low-,medium-,and high-dose Ginkgo biloba extract groups(50,100,and 200 mg/kg,respectively).A sham-operation group was included for comparison.Following six weeks of gavage administration,myocardial tissues were examined using hematoxylin-eosin and Sirius red staining to assess pathological changes.Wheat germ agglutinin staining was used to observe cardiomyocyte hypertrophy.Western blotting was performed to evaluate changes in the expression of MCODE core targets,including HIF1α,MAPK14,MMP9,and CXCR4.Results Compared to the sham-operation group,the model group exhibited irregular arrangement of cardiomyocytes,significant inflam-matory infiltration,and a marked increase in type Ⅰ and Ⅲ collagen fibers in the myocardial tissue(P＜0.05).Additionally,significant upregulation in the expression of MCODE core target proteins(P＜0.05)was observed.In contrast,compared to the model group,low-,medium-,and high-dose Ginkgo biloba extract groups displayed more orderly arrangement of cardiomyocytes,reduced inflammatory infil-tration,significantly decreased levels of type Ⅰ and Ⅲ collagen fibers(P＜0.05),notable downregulation in the expression of p-MAPK14,MMP9,and CXCR4 proteins(P＜0.05),and significantly increased expression of HIF1α protein(P＜0.05).Conclusion Ginkgo biloba extract may exert protective effects on myocardial cells following MI by inhibiting the formation of neutrophil extracellular traps.

Objective:Integrating genes and GEO database related cuproptosis chips,to analyze connection between cupropto-sis genes,immune infiltration and myocardial infarction(MI),construct risk prediction model,predict Western medicine and Chi-nese medicine,analyze miRNA-mRNA regulatory network,and to provides a new research direction for the future study of MI-related cuproptosis mechanism and immune infiltration.Methods:By GEO database retrieval of MI related chips,standardized processing and MI-related cuproptosis genes screening were performed,and immunoinfiltration analysis and quantification were performed based on the treated gene expression matrix,correlation between immune infiltrating cells and function was analyzed,as well as their differ-ences in MI group and the control group.Cuproptosis genes that most related to MI in immune infiltration were screened out,and the risk model was constructed to analyze the risk probability of cuproptosis genes in MI.The Enrichr website and Coremine Medical data-base were used to predict cuproptosis-related genes in MI in Western medicine and traditional Chinese medicine.Finally,the up-stream mirnas of FDX1 and SLC31A1 were predicted by miRTarBase,Starbase and Targetscan databases,and miRNA-mRNA regula-tory networks were constructed.Results:Correlation of immune infiltration showed that Tfh cells and B cells had the strongest positive correlation(r=0.68),while regulatory T cells and iDC had the strongest negative correlation(r=-0.63);the difference analysis of im-mune infiltration showed that the differences among mast cells,NK cells and Th1 cells in the MI group at the cellular level were the most significant(P<0.001);and the differences in APC co-inhibition and MHCⅠ at the functional level were the most significant(P<0.001).Six genes with the highest correlation between immune cells and immune function were screened out:ATP7A,DLD,FDX1,LIAS,LIPT1 and SLC31A1.Results of the risk model showed that the high levels of FDX1 and SLC31A1 were negatively correlated with the risk prediction of MI.A total of 21 Western medicines and 30 traditional medicines were predicted by database comparison.miRTarBase,Starbase and Targetscan databases predicted 9 upstream miRNAs of cuproptosis-related genes in MI,including has-miR-122-5p.Conclusion:Tfh cells,B cells,para-inflammatory,typeⅠinterferon response and other related immune cells and functions may play important roles in pathogenesis and prognosis of MI.FDX1 and SLC31A1 as the key genes of cuproptosis process,are negatively correlated with MI.A total of 30 kinds of traditional Chinese medicines including Spirulina,sheep liver,Wen ezhu,Pian jianghuang and Yujin may have potential value in treatment of MI.Finally,9 miRNAs including has-miR-122-5p may play an important role in the regulation of cuproptosis in myocardial infarction.
