Objective To analyze the serum metabolomic changes of preterm infants with bronchopulmonary dysplasia(BPD)at postmenstrual age(PMA)36 weeks,screen potential biomarkers and associated metabolic pathways,and assess their relationship with short-term respiratory outcomes.Methods A retrospective case-control study was conducted.Infants with gestational age 28-32 weeks admitted to the Children's Hospital Affiliated to Zhengzhou University from January to December 2024 were included.Twenty infants with BPD and 20 gestational age-,birth weight-,and sex-matched non-BPD preterm infants were included.Serum collected at PMA 36 weeks was subjected to untargeted metabolomics analysis,and associations with short-term respiratory outcomes were analyzed.Results Thirteen potential biomarkers distinguishing BPD were identified(area under the curve>0.75,P<0.05).Eight biomarkers—including terephthalic acid,phosphatidylinositol,fumarate,and lysophosphatidic acid—were significantly upregulated(FC≥1.5),while five biomarkers,such as 7α-hydroxy-3-oxo-4-cholestenoate ester and phosphatidylcholine,were significantly downregulated(FC≤1/1.5).Pathway analysis indicated five pathways associated with BPD,including glycerophospholipid metabolism and phenylalanine metabolism.Dysregulation of glycerophospholipid and bile acid metabolism may affect adverse short-term respiratory outcomes in infants with BPD.Conclusions The 13 significantly different metabolites may serve as biomarkers for the diagnosis of BPD.Glycerophospholipid metabolism is associated with the occurrence of BPD and with adverse short-term respiratory outcomes.

Objective To evaluate the clinical outcome of neurosurgical robot-assisted stereotactic puncture and drainage for brain abscess.Methods A retrospective analysis was conducted on the clinical data of 53 patients with brain abscess admitted to our hospital from January 2018 to December 2024.Among them,29 cases underwent craniotomy for abscess resection(craniotomy group),while 24 cases received neurosurgical robot-assisted stereotactic puncture and drainage(robot-assisted group).The operation time,intraoperative blood loss,decompressive craniectomy rate,proportion of postoperative antibiotic regimen adjustment,postoperative hospital stay,incidence of postoperative complications,mortality rate and Glasgow outcome scale(GOS)scores 6 months after surgery of patients were compared between the two groups.Results Compared with the craniotomy group,the robot-assisted group demonstrated significantly shorter operation time,less intraoperative blood loss,and lower incidence of postoperative complication,the differences were all statistically significant(P<0.05).However,there were no statistically significant differences in terms of decompressive craniectomy rate,postoperative hospital stay,mortality rate,GOS score,or proportion of the postoperative antibiotic regimen adjustment between the two groups(P>0.05).Conclusion As a precise and minimally invasive surgical method,neurosurgical robot-assisted stereotactic puncture and drainage for patients with brain abscess can effectively improve the operational efficiency,shorten the operation time,reduce intraoperative injury,and lower the risk of postoperative complications.It has high clinical application value and potential for widespread adoption.

Objective To investigate the practical effects of pediatric rapid sequence intubation(RSI)nursing coordination training based on the LSPPDM(learn,see,practice,prove,do,maintain)framework in order to provide evidence for optimizing pediatric RSI nursing training programs.Methods Nurses from the intensive care unit(ICU)of Children's Hospital,Fudan University during Feb 2023 and Jan 2024 were divided into the experimental group(n=35)and the control group(n=35)by block randomization.The experimental group received LSPPDM framework-based training,while the control group underwent conventional training with theoretical lectures and procedural demonstrations.Outcomes included training satisfaction,theoretical knowledge and procedural skill assessment scores,team collaboration compliance and RSI procedure time were compared between the two groups.Results The experimental group demonstrated significantly higher training satisfaction(123.80±2.04 vs.117.26±9.82,P<0.05),superior post-training theoretical knowledge and procedural skills(P<0.05),enhanced team collaboration compliance(P<0.05),and shorter RSI completion time(P<0.05)compared with the control group.Conclusion Pediatric RSI nursing coordination training based on the LSPPDM framework can effectively increase training satisfaction,promote theoretical and procedural skills and reduce completion time in nurses.

Objective To investigate the correlation between serum levels of microRNA(miR)-489-3p and miR-214-3p in patients with Psoriasis and the severity of disease.Methods From March 2022 to January 2024,138 Psoriasis patients who visited Zhangjiakou First Hospital were regarded as the study subjects(disease group).According to the psoriasis area and severity index(PASI)score,the 138 Psoriasis patients were separated into mild group(n=46),moderate group(n=54)and severe group(n=38).112 healthy individuals who underwent physical examinations in Zhangjiakou First Hospital during the same period were included in the control group.Real-time fluorescence quantitative PCR(RT-qPCR)method was applied to determine the serum levels of miR-489-3p and miR-214-3p in the subjects.The serum levels of miR-489-3p and miR-214-3p were compared between the disease group and the control group,and among patients with different degrees of disease.Spearman correlation analysis was applied to explore the relationship between serum miR-489-3p,miR-214-3p levels and disease severity in Psoriasis patients.Logistic regression analysis was performed to analyze the related factors affecting the severity of Psoriasis.Receiver operating characteristic(ROC)curve was applied to investigate the diagnostic value of serum miR-489-3p and miR-214-3p levels for severe Psoriasis.Results The serum levels of miR-489-3p(0.81±0.23)and miR-214-3p(0.79±0.22)in the disease group were lower than those in the control group(1.05±0.28,1.02±0.25),and the differences were statistically significant(t=7.441,7.732,all P<0.05).Serum miR-489-3p in mild,moderate and severe Psoriasis groups(0.93±0.24,0.80±0.23,0.69±0.22),miR-214-3p levels(0.91±0.24,0.77±0.22,0.66±0.21)decreased gradually,and the differences were statistically significant(F=12.423,13.168,all P<0.05).Spearman's results showed that serum levels of miR-489-3p and miR-214-3p were negatively correlated with the severity of Psoriasis in patients(r=-0.490,-0.463,all P<0.05).Serum miR-489-3p and miR-214-3p were independent protective factors for the severity of Psoriasis patients(Wald χ2=5.751,8.753,all P<0.05).ROC curve results showed that the area under the curve(AUC)of serum miR-489-3p and miR-214-3p for diagnosing severe Psoriasis alone was 0.785 and 0.792,with sensitivity of 78.9%and 73.7%,specificity of 49.9%and 54.7%,respectively.The AUC of the combined diagnosis for severe Psoriasis was 0.931,the sensitivity and specificity were 71.7%,71.1%,respectively,and the combined diagnostic efficacy of the two was better than that of miR-489-3p and miR-214-3p alone,and the differences were statistically significant(Z=3.018,2.773,all P<0.05).Conclusion The serum levels of miR-489-3p and miR-214-3p in patients with Psoriasis are both reduced,and both are negatively correlated with the severity of the disease in Psoriasis patients.The combined determination of the two has high efficacy in the diagnosis of severe Psoriasis.

O-glycosylation(including mucin-type O-glycosylation and O-GlcNAcylation),as a critical post-translational modification(PTM),regulates protein function,stability,and subcellular localization through the addition of glycan chains to serine or threonine residues,which participates in cellular signa-ling,metabolic regulation,and stress responses.DNA damage refers to the disruption of genomic integri-ty caused by endogenous factors(e.g.,metabolic byproducts,replication errors)or exogenous agents(e.g.,radiation,chemical substances),leading to carcinogenesis,aging,and genetic disorders.To counteract DNA lesions,organisms have evolved the DNA damage response(DDR)system,which or-chestrates complex protein networks to detect DNA damage and facilitate repair processes.Emerging evi-dence indicates that O-glycosylation can modulate DDR by influencing the activity,localization,and in-teractions of DNA repair-associated proteins.However,the precise mechanisms underlying O-glycosyla-tion-mediated DDR remain to be clarified.This review systematically summarizes:(1)the biosynthetic pathways of mucin-type O-glycosylation and O-GlcNAcylation,the cascade reactions in DDR;and(2)current research advances regarding O-glycosylation in tumor-associated DDR.Furthermore,we propose novel mechanistic perspectives and therapeutic strategies targeting O-glycosylation-mediated DDR dysreg-ulation in malignancies,aiming to provide a theoretical basis for tumor treatment.

Objective To detect the characteristics of whole-brain functional changes in patients with subjective tinnitus(ST)after"frontal-temporal"dual-site repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation(rTMS)by resting-state functional magnetic resonance imaging(rs-fMRI).Methods A total of 45 ST patients were enrolled,and assessments of tinnitus severity and rs-fMRI scans were performed before and 2 weeks after treatment with"frontal-temporal"dual-site rTMS.Regional homogeneity(ReHo),fractional amplitude of low-frequency fluctuations(fALFF),degree centrality(DC)and seed-based functional connectivity(FC)were analyzed before and after treatment in ST patients.Results Tinnitus handicap inventory(THI)score of ST patients 2 weeks after treatment was significantly decreased compared with that before treatment(P<0.001).ReHo values of the right inferior parietal lobule decreased,fALFF values of the right temporal pole increased,fALFF values of the right superior temporal gyrus decreased,and DC(weighted)and DC(Binarized)values of the right medial temporal gyrus all decreased in ST patients 2 weeks after treatment compared with those before treatment(P<0.05,GRF correction).Using the above differential brain regions as seed points for FC analysis,FC values between right superior temporal gyrus(fALFF)and right middle temporal gyrus reduced,FC values between right middle temporal gyrus[(DC(weighted)]and right superior occipital gyrus reduced,and FC values between right middle temporal gyrus[DC(Binarized)]and right superior occipital gyrus reduced 2 weeks after treatment compared with those before treatment(P<0.05,GRF correction).Conclusion"Frontal-temporal"dual-site rTMS is initially effective for ST patients,and the auditory and non-auditory brain regions of ST patients showed different degrees of regional and interbrain function changes,mainly involving default mode network and visual-auditory network.

Objective To analyze the risk factors affecting liver regeneration after laparoscopic anatomic liver resection(LALR),and to explore the relationship between postoperative liver regeneration and the prognosis of patients.Methods A retrospective analysis was conducted on the clinical data of 156 patients with liver cancer who underwent LALR treatment at the People's Hospital Affiliated to Shandong First Medical University from January 2021 to December 2023.Three-dimensional liver reconstruction and simulated resection were performed based on CT examination,and the postoperative liver regeneration rate was calculated.The patients were divided into the high regeneration group and the low regeneration group based on the median liver regeneration rate 1 month after surgery,and the univariate and multivariate analyses were performed to analyze the risk factors affecting postoperative liver regeneration.The relationships between post-operative liver regeneration capacity and tumor-free survival rate and overall survival rate of patients were analyzed using the Kaplan-Meier survival curve.Results Significant difference was observed between the future remnant liver volume(FRLV)1 week after operation and the remnant liver volume(RLV)after operation(P<0.05).The liver regeneration rates 1 month and 3 months after operation were significantly higher than that 1 week after operation(P<0.05).The net growth rate of liver volume 1 week after operation was significantly higher than that 1 month and 3 months after operation(P<0.05).The median liver regeneration rate 1 month after operation was 27.81%.Univariate analysis showed that gender,age,drinking history,combined with liver cirrhosis,preoperative predictional RLV,preoperative predictional standard residual liver volume(SRLV),and postoperative platelet count(PLT)were closely related to liver regeneration after operation(P<0.05).Multivariate analysis showed that combined with liver cirrhosis,and high preoperative predictional RLV and SRLV were the independent factors affecting liver regeneration after operation(P<0.05).The postoperative follow-up showed that the cumulative tumor-free survival rate of the high regeneration group was lower than that of the low regeneration group(61.20%vs.75.28%,Log-rank χ2=3.577,P=0.043),and there was no statistically significant difference in the cumulative overall survival rate between the two groups(74.63%vs.80.89%,Log-rank χ2=1.024,P=0.312).Conclusion For patients with liver cancer undergoing LALR,combined with liver cirrhosis,and high preoperative predictional RLV and SRLV are the independent risk factors influencing early postoperative liver regeneration.Moreover,the higher the patients' postoperative liver regeneration capacity,the lower the tumor-free survival rate.

BACKGROUND: The available evidence regarding the benefits of percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) on patients receiving dialysis with coronary artery disease (CAD) is limited and inconsistent. This study aimed to evaluate the association between PCI and clinical outcomes as compared with medical therapy alone in patients undergoing dialysis with CAD in China. METHODS: This multicenter, retrospective study was conducted in 30 tertiary medical centers across 12 provinces in China from January 2015 to June 2021 to include patients on dialysis with CAD. The primary outcome was major adverse cardiovascular events (MACE), defined as a composite of cardiovascular death, non-fatal myocardial infarction, and non-fatal stroke. Secondary outcomes included all-cause death, the individual components of MACE, and Bleeding Academic Research Consortium criteria types 2, 3, or 5 bleeding. Multivariable Cox proportional hazard models were used to assess the association between PCI and outcomes. Inverse probability of treatment weighting (IPTW) and propensity score matching (PSM) were performed to account for potential between-group differences. RESULTS: Of the 1146 patients on dialysis with significant CAD, 821 (71.6%) underwent PCI. After a median follow-up of 23.0 months, PCI was associated with a 43.0% significantly lower risk for MACE (33.9% [ n  = 278] vs . 43.7% [ n  = 142]; adjusted hazards ratio 0.57, 95% confidence interval 0.45-0.71), along with a slightly increased risk for bleeding outcomes that did not reach statistical significance (11.1% vs . 8.3%; adjusted hazards ratio 1.31, 95% confidence interval, 0.82-2.11). Furthermore, PCI was associated with a significant reduction in all-cause and cardiovascular mortalities. Subgroup analysis did not modify the association of PCI with patient outcomes. These primary findings were consistent across IPTW, PSM, and competing risk analyses. CONCLUSION This study indicated that PCI in patients on dialysis with CAD was significantly associated with lower MACE and mortality when comparing with those with medical therapy alone, albeit with a slightly increased risk for bleeding events that did not reach statistical significance.
