Objective To construct a prediction model for the population with hypertension and diabetes to assess the risk of chronic kidney disease (CKD), and to provide a scientific basis for formulating targeted CKD prevention and control measures. Methods Based on physical examination data from community residents aged 60 years and above in Nanjing in 2022, 10 221 patients with hypertension and diabetes were selected as the study subjects. Variables associated with CKD prevalence were screened using univariate analysis, and further variable selection was performed using LASSO regression. Finally, a CKD risk prediction model was constructed based on logistic regression. The model's performance was evaluated using the ROC curve and calibration curve. Results The prevalence rate of CKD in the study population was 22.71%, with a mean age of 71.66 years. LASSO regression identified seven variables associated with CKD: age, blood urea nitrogen (BUN), hemoglobin, uric acid, triglyceride-glucose (TyG) index, urine protein-to-creatinine ratio (UPCR), and medical insurance type. The final logistic regression model incorporated six variables: age [OR=1.067 (95% CI: 1.058-1.076)], BUN [OR=1.377 (95% CI: 1.338-1.418)], hemoglobin [OR=0.992 (95% CI: 0.989-0.995)], uric acid [OR=1.004 (95% CI: 1.003-1.004)], TyG index [OR=1.445 (95% CI: 1.324-1.577)], and self-payment medical insurance [OR=1.732 (95% CI: 1.542-1.945)]. The model had an AUC of 0.759 (95% CI: 0.747-0.770) and a Brier score of 0.140 (95% CI: 0.136-0.145), indicating good predictive performance. The calibration curve showed good agreement between the predicted risk and the observed value. Conclusion The constructed LASSO-logistic regression risk prediction model in this study can effectively assess the risk of CKD in elderly individuals aged 60 years and above with hypertension and diabetes, providing a basis for early identification of high-risk individuals and the formulation of targeted CKD prevention and control measures.

BACKGROUND:Acute exercise tends to cause skeletal muscle tissue damage and lipid metabolism disorders in vivo,but the mechanism by which acute exercise combined with electroacupuncture modulates metabolic and autophagic pathways in vivo is unclear. OBJECTIVE:To observe the changes in metabolic enzymes and autophagy levels in skeletal muscle of rats subjected to acute exercise by electroacupuncture at the acupoints of"Zusanli"and"Huantiao." METHODS:Fifty male Sprague-Dawley rats were randomly divided into three groups:quiet control group(n=10),model group(n=20),and reverse electroacupuncture group(n=20).The latter two groups were set up with two time points,i.e.immediate and 3 hours after exercise groups(n=10 per time point).The model group and the reverse electroacupuncture group underwent acute exercise training after adaptive treadmill training.The rats in the reverse electroacupuncture group underwent electroacupuncture treatment(parameters:electroacupuncture on both sides of the rats at the acupoints of"Zusanli"and"Huantiao,"continuous wave,frequency of 2 Hz,intensity of 2 mA,leaving the needle in the body for 30 minutes,once a day for 7 consecutive days)before treadmill training.Bilateral gastrocnemius muscle tissues were taken under anesthesia immediately after exercise and 3 hours after exercise,and hematoxylin-eosin staining was used to observe the histopathological changes of rat skeletal muscle.ELISA kit was used to detect the activities of hepatic lipase,fatty acid synthase,hormone-sensitive lipase,and carnitine palmitoyltransferase 1 in rat skeletal muscle tissues.Immunohistochemistry and western blot were used to detect the changes in the expression of autophagy genes. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:After hematoxylin-eosin staining,the arrangement of gastrocnemius muscle fibers in the model group was disturbed,swollen and ruptured immediately after exercise and 3 hours after exercise.In the reverse electroacupuncture group,gastrocnemius muscle fibers were tightly arranged and the number of swollen and ruptured cells was greatly reduced immediately after exercise and 3 hours after exercise,and there was no significant difference when compared with the quiet control group.Compared with the quiet control group,the activities of hepatic lipase and fatty acid synthase were lower while the activities of lipoprotein lipase,hormone-sensitive lipase,and carnitine palmitoyltransferase 1 were higher in the model group and the reverse electroacupuncture group 3 hours after exercise(P＜0.05 or P＜0.01).Compared with the model group,the activities of lipoprotein lipase and carnitine palmitoyltransferase 1 were higher in the reverse electroacupuncture group immediately after exercise(P＜0.05),while the activity of lipoprotein lipase was higher and the activity of hormone-sensitive lipase was lower in the reverse electroacupuncture group 3 hours after exercise(P＜0.01).Immunohistochemical results showed that compared with the quiet control group,the expression of P62,autophagy-related gene 5 and autophagy-related gene 7 was higher in the model group immediately and 3 hours after exercise,as well as in the reverse electroacupuncture group immediately after exercise(P＜0.05 or P＜0.01);compared with the model group,the expression of P62 and autophagy-related gene 7 was lower in the reverse electroacupuncture group immediately and 3 hours after exercise(P＜0.05).Western blot results showed that the protein expression of P62 and autophagy-related gene 7 in the reverse electroacupuncture group was lower than that in the model group immediately after exercise(P＜0.05);the protein expression of Parkin in the model group was higher than that in the quiet control group immediately and 3 hours after exercise(P＜0.05);and the protein expression of Parkin in the reverse electroacupuncture group was lower than that in the model group immediately and 3 hours after exercise(P＜0.05).To conclude,acute exercise induces disorders,swelling and rupture of gastrocnemius muscle fibers in rats and electroacupuncture on both sides of the acupoints of"Zusanli"and"Huantiao"can improve the level of lipid metabolism and regulate autophagy cells in rat skeletal muscle,preventing the disorders of lipid metabolism and damage of gastrocnemius muscle tissues caused by acute exercise.The mechanism may be closely related to the regulation of autophagy-related factor P62,autophagy-related gene 5,autophagy-related gene 7,and Parkin protein expression to promote the occurrence of autophagy or regulate the autophagy pathway in rat skeletal muscle cells.

Digital technologies have become an integral part of complete denture restoration. With advancement in computer-aided design and computer-aided manufacturing (CAD/CAM), tools such as intraoral scanning, facial scanning, 3D printing, and numerical control machining are reshaping the workflow of complete denture restoration. Unlike conventional methods that rely heavily on clinical experience and manual techniques, digital technologies offer greater precision, predictability, and efficacy. They also streamline the process by reducing the number of patient visits and improving overall comfort. Despite these improvements, the clinical application of digital complete denture restoration still faces challenges that require further standardization. The major issues include appropriate case selection, establishing consistent digital workflows, and evaluating long-term outcomes. To address these challenges and provide clinical guidance for practitioners, this expert consensus outlines the principles, advantages, and limitations of digital complete denture technology. The aim of this review was to offer practical recommendations on indications, clinical procedures and precautions, evaluation metrics, and outcome assessment to support digital restoration of complete denture in clinical practice.

Objective To explore the efficacy of two lipopolysaccharide(LPS)two-hit methods in establishing an acute lung injury(ALI)mouse model and analyze the characteristics of this model within the context of both Western and traditional Chinese medicine(TCM).Methods Healthy male C57BL/6 mice were randomly divided into six groups:PBS instillation control group,PBS nebulization control group,instillation two-hit group,nebulization two-hit group I,nebulization two-hit group Ⅱ,and nebulization two-hit group Ⅲ.Using LPS as a stimulant,a"two-hit"approach was employed to establish an ALI mouse model.Body temperature,weight,pulse oximetric oxygen saturation(SpO2),lung tissue wet-to-dry weight ratio(W/D),levels of tumor necrosis factor(TNF-α),interleukin-1β(IL-1β),and myeloperoxidase(MPO)activity in lung tissue,as well as total protein concentration and white blood cell count in bronchoalveolar lavage fluid were measured.Through evaluating the consistency between TCM and Western medical syndromes,the classification,characteristics,modeling methods,advantages,and disadvantages of the two-hit ALI animal model were summarized and analyzed based on the clinical diagnostic criteria and syndrome characteristics of ALI in both TCM and Western medicine.Results Compared with the control group,the body temperature,weight,and SpO2 of model group decreased,W/D increased,levels of TNF-α,IL-1β,and MPO activity in lung tissue increased.The alveolar walls thickened with a large exudate of red blood cells.The total protein concentration and white blood cell count in bronchoalveolar lavage fluid significantly increased.The existing two-hit ALI animal model showed a high degree of consistency with Western medical diagnostic main symptoms.Conclusion Both methods of two-hit can prepare mouse ALI models,among which the nebulization two-hit Group Ⅲ showed more pronounced effects in simulating the pathological changes and clinical symptoms of ALI.

Objective In this study,exogenous hormones combined with variable temperature stratification were used to relieve seed dormannia of Coptis chinensis and promote seed germination,and the effects of gibberellin on the physiological,biochemical and embryonic morphological changes of C.chinensis seeds during post-mature germination were further evaluated.Methods Using orthogonal test,different exogenous hormones(GA3,6-BA,NAA,ABA)and different temperature changing stratification(20℃/4℃)were set up,and the germination index(germination rate and split rate)of C.chinensis seeds were statistically compared.The activity of antioxidant enzymes(peroxidase POD,catalase CAT),the content of malondialdehyde(MDA)and endogenous hormones(GA,IAA,ABA)during the germination of C.chinensis seeds under optimal treatment were measured.The microscopic structure of the seeds was observed by paraffin embedding section.Results The results of range analysis showed that the best budding method was:100 mg·L-1 of gibberellin for 12 h,20℃for 60 day,4℃for 10 day.Physiological and biochemical index analysis showed that 100 mg·L-1 exogenous gibberellin treatment promoted the endogenous GA content to reach the peak in advance,maintained the POD and CAT contents at a higher level,and maintained the malondialdehyde(MDA)content at a lower level.The transformation from torpedo embryo to cotyledonous embryo was observed by electron microscope during postmature germination.Conclusion Exogenous gibberellin combined with variable temperature stratification treatment could significantly accelerate seed germination of C.chinensis,mainly by promoting seed embryo morphological development,affecting the contents of GA,POD and CAT,and rapidly relieving seed dormancy to promote seed germination.Compared with natural conditions,the germination period could be shortened by about six months.

Objective:To investigate the regulatory role and mechanism of synaptic vesicle protein 2A (SV2A) in apoptosis of drug-resistant epilepsy neurons.Methods:One hundred and fifty specific pathogen-free (SPF) Sprague-Dawley (SD) rats were randomly numbered; 20 rats were selected as a normal control group (NC group), and the remaining 130 rats were subjected to chronic epilepsy models of lithium-pilocarpine. Phenobarbital and phenytoin sodium for 2 weeks were given to these rats after modeling; fanally, 94 rats with chronic epilepsy were divided into a drug-resistant group (phenobarbital and phenytoin sodium-resistant epilepsy [PRE] group, reduction in episodes<50%, n= 55) and a drug-sensitive group (phenobarbital and phenytoin sodium-sensitive epilepsy [PSE] group, reduction in episodes by≥50%, n=38). Rats in the PRE group were further randomly divided into 5 groups, namely a up-regulated-SV2A PRE group (UPRE group), a down-regulated-SV2A PRE group (DPRE group), a up-regulated-SV2A control group (UPRC group), a down-regulated-SV2A control group (DPRC group), and a non-transfected PRE group; different types of lentivirus were given to the first 4 groups via stereotactic brain injection. Ten days after lentiviral transfection, virus detection was performed; and 2 weeks after lentiviral transfection, occurrence of epileptic seizures was observed, and after that, rats were sacrificed and the hippocampal tissues were collected for subsequent experiments. Western blotting was used to detect the expressions of SV2A, cyclophilin A (CyPA), apoptosis-inducing factor (AIF), and superoxide dismutase 2 (SOD2) in the cell nucleus or mitochondria; coimmunoprecipitation experiment was performed to observe the interaction among SV2A, CyPA and AIF proteins; immunofluorescent co-staining was used to observe the CyPA/AIF localization; mitochondrial damage was detected by electron microscopy; ATP content in the hippocampal tissues was detected by luciferase method, 8-hydroxy-2-deoxyguanosine (8-OHDG) expression was detected by immunofluorescent staining, and neuronal apoptosis rate was calculated by double staining with neuron-specific nuclear protein (NeuN) and TUNEL. Results:(1) Confocal microscopy revealed that the hippocampal tissues in the 4 transfected groups showed green fluorescence inherent to the lentivirus, indicating successful viral infection. Compared with the UPRC group, the UPRE group had significantly reduced frequency of epileptic seizures and seizure duration ( P<0.05). (2) Western blotting showed that, in mitochondria, the UPRE group had significantly higher expressions of SV2A (0.475± 0.105 vs. 0.136±0.043), CyPA (0.473±0.041 vs. 0.175±0.047), AIF (0.443±0.058 vs. 0.131±0.037), and SOD2 (0.457±0.037 vs. 0.152±0.038) compared with the UPRC group ( P<0.05); the DPRE group had significantly decreased expressions of SV2A (0.038±0.013 vs. 0.184±0.047), CyPA (0.041±0.010 vs. 0.214±0.040), AIF (0.040±0.019 vs. 0.175±0.046), and SOD2 (0.043±0.017 vs. 0.187±0.039) compared with the DPRC group ( P<0.05). In the cell nucleus, the UPRE group had significantly lower expressions of AIF (0.336±0.084 vs. 0.649±0.209) and CyPA (0.331±0.086 vs. 0.620±0.162) compared with the UPRC group ( P<0.05); the DPRE group had statistically higher expressions of AIF (0.771± 0.180 vs. 0.519±0.144) and CyPA (0.738±0.223 vs. 0.488±0.091) compared with the DPRC group ( P< 0.05). (3) Co-immunoprecipitation experiment results showed that the bidirectional precipitation results of SV2A and AIF, SV2A and CyPA, and AIF and CyPA were all positive, suggesting existence of interactions. (4) Immunofluorescent co-staining showed that the fluorescence changes of CyPA and AIF were consistent. (5) Electron microscopy showed that mitochondria in the NC group had intact structure; mitochondria in the UPRE group, UPRC group, DPRC group and DPRE group showed swelling and cristae fragmentation; among them, injury in the UPRE group was relatively less severe than that in the UPRC group, while that in the DPRC group was more severe than that in the DPRE group. (6) Compared with the UPRC group, the UPRE group had statistically higher ATP content ( P<0.05); compared with the DPRC group, the DPRE group had significantly lower ATP content ( P<0.05).(7) Immunofluorescent staining results showed that the UPRE group had significantly lower 8-OHDG expression than the UPRC group ( P<0.05); compared with the DPRC group, the DPRE group had statistically higher 8-OHDG expression ( P<0.05). (8) The UPRE group had significantly lower NeuN-TUNEL double staining positive rate than the UPRC group ( P<0.05); compared with the DPRC group, the DPRE group had significantly higher NeuN-TUNEL double staining positive rate ( P<0.05). Conclusion:SV2A can play a role in the apoptosis of hippocampal neurons in rats with drug-resistant epilepsy by regulating the nuclear translocation of AIF/CyPA and mitochondrial damage.

Objective:To investigate the behavioral, electroencephalographic, and cognitive functional differences in drug-resistant epileptic rat models of cognitive impairment prepared by intraperitoneal injection of lithium chloride-pilocarpine followed by intracranial injection of pilocarpine or carbamylcholine.Methods:One hundred and sixty adult male SD rats were randomly divided into normal control group ( n=10), lithium chloride-pilocarpine group (establishing epileptic rat models by intraperitoneal injection of lithium chloride-pilocarpine, n=50), pilocarpine-pilocarpine group (intracranial injection of pilocarpine after intraperitoneal injection of lithium chloride-pilocarpine, n=50)and pilocarpine-carbamylcholine group (intracranial injection of carbamylcholine after intraperitoneal injection of lithium chloride-pilocarpine, n=50). Frequency and duration of spontaneously recurrent seizures (SRSs) were observed by video monitoring system, and 2 weeks after that, phenobarbital and phenytoin sodium were injected intraperitoneally to screen drug-resistant models. Frequency and amplitude of the epileptic waves in EEG were recorded by BL-420 Bio-signal Acquisition and Processing System. Novel object recognition experiment was used to detect the novel exploration, Y-maze free exploration experiment and new and different arm experiment were used to detect the spatial recognition and memory ability, and Morris water maze experiment was used to detect the spatial memory ability. Results:(1) Twenty-four rats (48.00%) survived in the lithium chloride-pilocarpine group, 25 (78.00%) in the pilocarpine-pilocarpine group, and 21 (65.62%) in the pilocarpine-carbamylcholine group; and ultimately 7, 9, and 8 drug-resistant epileptic rat models were identified, respectively; frequency and duration of SRSs in the pilocarpine-pilocarpine group and pilocarpine-carbamylcholine group were significantly higher/longer than those in the lithium chloride-pilocarpine group ( P<0.05). (2) The pilocarpine-pilocarpine group and pilocarpine-carbamylcholine group had significantly higher amplitude of the epileptic waves in EEG compared with the lithium chloride-pilocarpine group ( P<0.05); the frequency of the epileptic waves in EEG increased gradually in the lithium chloride-pilocarpine group, pilocarpine-pilocarpine group, and pilocarpine-carbamylcholine group ( P<0.05). (3) Discrimination index, accuracy, ratio of distance traveled in novel arm to total distance, and time of novel arm entries gradually decreased in the normal control group, lithium chloride-pilocarpine group, pilocarpine-pilocarpine group, and pilocarpine-carbamylcholine group, with significant differences ( P<0.05). (4) Compared with the normal control group, the pilocarpine-pilocarpine group and pilocarpine-carbamylcholine group had significantly decreased frequency in crossing the original platform ( P<0.05); compared with the normal control group, lithium-pilocarpine chloride group and pilocarpine-pilocarpine group, the pilocarpine-carbamylcholine group had statistically shorter distance of target quadrant activity ( P<0.05); number of entries in the target quadrant gradually decreased in the normal control group, lithium chloride-pilocarpine group, pilocarpine-pilocarpine group, and pilocarpine-carbamylcholine group, with significant differences ( P<0.05). Conclusion:Drug-resistant epileptic rat models established by intracranial injection of carbamylcholine after intraperitoneal injection of lithium chloride-pilocarpine have high survival rate, high SRSs rate, and severe cognitive impairment, which is suitable for studying drug-resistant epilepsy combined with cognitive impairment.
