Objective:To evaluate the long-term protective efficacy of the recombinant Chinese hamster ovary cell-derived hepatitis B vaccine（CHO-HepB）26 years post-vaccination in the rural China.Methods:Zhengding county，Hebei province was designated as a rural monitoring site for CHO-HepB efficacy. Study participants included individuals born between 1997 and 1999 who had completed the three-dose CHO-HepB primary series without booster doses. A cross-sectional survey was conducted in late 2024 using random sampling. Demographic and vaccination history data were collected via questionnaires，and hepatitis B virus（HBV）serological markers were detected using chemiluminescence. Historical surveillance data were integrated to infer infection statuses of HBsAg-positive individuals and evaluate longitudinal trends in anti-HBs seropositivity and antibody titers.Results:Among 178 participants（mean time since vaccination：26.2 years），the seroprevalence rates were 0.6% for HBsAg（95% CI：0.0%-1.6%），64.6% for anti-HBs（95% CI：57.6%-71.6%），and 1.1% for anti-HBc（95% CI：0.0%-2.7%）. Compared to the pre-vaccination baseline HBsAg positivity of 11.3% in children under 10 years of age，the estimated vaccine protection rate was 95%. Two notable cases were identified：one with concurrent HBsAg and anti-HBc positivity and one with anti-HBs and anti-HBc positivity，suggestive of transient HBV exposure（1999—2009）without chronicity. Natural immune boosting was inferred for the latter case based on anti-HBs titer dynamics. Longitudinal analysis of four prior cross-sectional surveys（2005，2009，2013，and 2017）revealed no significant upward trends in HBsAg and anti-HBc positivity（both P>0.05）over 26 years，while anti-HBs seropositivity declined significantly（ P<0.05）from 6 to 26 years post-vaccination. Conclusion:The CHO-HepB vaccine demonstrates sustained immunological persistence and robust long-term protection up to 26 years post-immunization. Continued emphasis on rigorous implementation of mother-to-child transmission prevention strategies is critical for future hepatitis B control.

Myelodysplastic syndrome(MDS)is a malignant clonal disease with high heterogeneity in cytogenetics and molecular genetics,and the risk of progression to acute myeloid leukemia(AML)is extremely high.Transforming growth factor-β(TGF-β)is closely related to the pathogenesis of MDS.It is a key executor of immune homeostasis and immune tolerance,and can inhibit the expansion and function of many components of immune system.TGF-β signaling pathway can regulate hematopoietic cells and immune cells in microenvironment,inhibit their normal biological functions,and thus accelerate the progression of MDS.This study reviews regulatory effects of TGF-β signaling pathway on MDS blood cells,T lymphocytes,natural killer cells and macrophages in recent years,and provides a new perspective for the pathogenesis and treatment of MDS.

In recent years，with the change in lifestyle and social environment and the increase in pressure in both life and work，male fertility has decreased significantly in China，and the incidence of male infertility has increased year by year，which has brought great challenges to andrologists. Traditional Chinese medicine （TCM） has a definite curative effect in the treatment of male infertility and is widely applied in clinical practice. In order to clarify the role of TCM in different types and each stage of male infertility，the China Association of Chinese Medicine （CACM） invited outstanding young andrologists in the clinic of TCM and western medicine to discuss topics such as idiopathic oligospermia and teratospermia，abnormal semen liquefaction，varicocele，immune infertility，improving success ratio of assisted reproductive technology，and ameliorating depression or anxiety. They conducted in-depth discussions on the advantages，characteristics，disadvantages，diseases responding specifically，and advantageous aspects of TCM treatment. The causes of male infertility and related links of treatment were summarized. Due to the unclear etiology and complex pathogenesis of male infertility，western medicine cannot achieve a good curative effect，while TCM，taking the holistic view as the core，specializes in improving functional diseases and can correspond to multiple targets and factors，with comprehensive treatments such as internal treatment and external treatment. This study summarized the advantageous diseases and advantageous stages of TCM treatment alone and integrated TCM and western medicine treatment and put forward suggestions for the treatment of the diseases by TCM and western medicine in order to promote the therapeutic effects and advantages of TCM among andrologists，increase mutual learning and communication between TCM and western physicians，provide patients with excellent and personalized treatment plans in clinical practice，and improve the curative effect of male infertility and fertility of males in China.

Objective To explore the gene frequency of apolipoprotein A5(APOA5)-1131T>C single nucleotide polymorphisms and its relationship with the fat contents of adult Tibetans in Tibet and Han nationality population in Liaoning province.Methods In 100 Tibetan nationality(the study group) and 100 Han nationality individuals(the control group), the polymorphism of apoa5-1131T>C genotypes was detected by polymerase chain reaction-restricted fragments length polymorphism(PCR-RFLP), and fat contents were got by using bioelectrical impedance measurement.Results Results of fat contents of body, trunk and limbs(left upper limbs, left lower limbs, right upper limbs, right lower limbs and total limbs) were respectively below:① There was significant difference between male TC+CC genotype and TT genotype of Tibetan nationality.There was significant difference between male TT genotype of Tibetan nationality and of Han nationality.② There was significant difference between female TT genetype of Tibetan nationality and of Han nationality except result of the body fat contents.③ There was significant difference between the trunk and total limbs fat contents in male TT genotype, and male TC+CC genotype of Tibetan nationality and of Han nationality, and female TT genotype of Tibetan nationality.Conclusion APOA5 gene-1131T>C affects the body fat contents of Tibetans and Han nationality population, and APOA5 gene-1131T>C probably affects lipopexia in trunk.

Objective To evaluate the role of myricetin in the metastasis of human renal cancer ACHN cells both in vitro and in vivo.Methods With different concentration of myricetin (25, 50, 100 μmol/L) acting on ACHN cells, the cell viability, migration and invasion were respectively measured with CCK-8 assay, wound healing migration assay and Transwell invasion assay in vitro.A lung metastatic model for human renal cell carcinoma was developed by tail vein injection with ACHN cells.The effect of myricetin on the metastasis of renal cell carcinoma was explored by intraperitoneal injection of myricetin in vivo.After 6 weeks, the micro metastases of the lungs in nude mice was examined.Results Compared to the control group, CCK-8 assay showed that the cell viability was significantly lower in the myricetin group at the concentration of 50 μmol/L for 24 h (P=0.019).The inhibitory effect became more significant with the increase in drug concentration or action time.In addition, myricetin also inhibits the migration and invasion of ACHN cells in a dose dependent manner.Intraperitoneal injection of myricetin significantly reduced the number of the micro metastases of renal cell carcinoma in the lungs of nude mice.Conclusion Myricetin effectively inhibits the cell viability, migration and invasion of human renal cancer ACHN cells.It has the potential therapeutic value in the treatment of renal cell carcinoma.

Objective To discuss the clinical and radiological features of congenital absence of the internal carotid artery.Methods Four patients of the congenital absence of the internal carotid artery were reported and the clinical and radiological features were summarized by a review of the literature.Results Four patients were shown subarachnoid hemorrhage ( SAH) , transient ischemic attack ( TIA) , epilepsy and headache, respectively.All of the four patients presented the absence of unilateral or bilateral carotid arteries in cervical computed tomography angiography ( CTA) or magnetic resonance angiography ( MRA).Carotid canal was absent in all the patients in CT base of skull and multiple intracranial vascular dysplasia was shown in all the patients.Basilar or posterior communicating artery was presented as dolichoectasia in 3 patients.There were 2 patients who suffered aneurysm.Conclusions The onset of the congenital absence of the internal carotid artery can be presented in any age.Sudden severe headache as initial symptom caused by SAH is showed more common in children and adolescents.TIA is commonly seen in the elderly.CT shows carotid canals are absent in the base of skull.Unilateral or bilateral carotid arteries are shown absent in CTA or MRA.Multiple intracranial vascular dysplasia is shown in CTA or MRA.Carotid artery CTA has been considered as the optimal imaging method of showing the congenital absence of the internal carotid artery.

Objective To explore the imaging differences of vertebral multiple myeloma(VMM)and vertebral osteolytic metastasis on CT. Methods Review the imaging signs of 32 patients with VMM and 52 patients with vertebral osteolytic metastasis,then record and finally statistical analysis was carried out.Results Compare to 1 67 vertebras involved in 52 cases of vertebral metastasis,the patents with VMM had 220 vertebras involved.The incidence of the multiple small circular type of bone destruction in VMM was 42.66%(93/218),which was higher than that in vertebral metastasis 0.00% (0/165)(χ2 =92.963,P =0.000).The incidence of the irregular shape type of bone destruction in VMM was 23.39% (5 1/218),while it was higher in patients with vertebral metastasis 45.45%(75/165)(χ2 =20.704,P=0.000).It was also found that the incidence of the fragmentary type of bone destruction and the involvement of the unilateral pedicle in VMM were lower than that in patients with vertebral metastasis 8.7% (19/218 )& 27.27% (45/165)(χ2 =23.238,P =0.000), 6.82% (1 5/220)& 1 7.96% (30/1 67)(χ2 =1 1.477,P =0.001).The incidence of the crest protrusion type of bone destruction in patients with VMM was 16.06% (35/218),however it was 9.10% (15/165)(χ2 =4.013,P =0.045)in vertebral osteolytic metastasis.

Objective: To observe the changes of endothelial-dependent vasodilatation and cyclophilin A (CyPA) expression at different phases of atherosclerosis in experimental rats. Methods: A total of 30 male Wistar rats were divided into 4 groups: Control group, the rats received normal diet, and 3 atherosclerosis groups, the rats received high cholesterol diet for different period of time and a single dose intraperitoneal injection of Vitamin D3 at 600,000 IU/kg, as Atherosclerosis at 8 weeks (AS 8W) group, AS 12W group and AS 15W group, n=8 in each AS group. The rats were sacriifced at the same time to isolate aorta abdominalis. The expression of CyPA at the wall of aorta abdominalis was detected by HE staining and immunohistochemistry. In addition, the aorta abdominalises was cut into 5 mm rings to observe its response to acethylcholine in exvivo organ bath. Results: With prolonged modeling time, the rats at different groups presented normal vessel structure, endothelial cell damage, vessel smooth muscle cell proliferation, atherosclerosis plaque formation and calciifed plaque formation for differentpathological characteristics. The endothelial-dependent vasodilatation was decreased and the maximum vasodilatation percentage in Control group, AS 8W group, AS 12W group and AS 15W group were at (93.46 ± 2.80) %, (82.58 ± 3.25) %, (61.19 ± 3.72)% and (41.28 ± 2.68)% respectively,P<0.05 between each group. The CyPA expression in endothelial cell and vessel smooth muscle cell were increased accordingly in 4 groups by OD value as (0.25 ± 0.06), (0.34 ± 0.09), (0.53 ± 0.09) and (0.68 ± 0.13) respectively,P<0.05 between each group. Conclusion: The CyPA expression increased and the endothelial-dependent vasodilatation decreased with the progress of atherosclerosis accordingly in experimental rats. The expression level of CyPA is related to atherosclerosis degree and it is one of the initial factors for atherosclerosis in rats.
