OBJECTIVE: To observe the effects of electroacupuncture (EA) on improving motor function and regulating microglial activation based on Notch receptor 1 (Notch1)/Hes family bHLH transcription factor 1 (Hes1) pathway in mice with Parkinson's disease (PD). METHODS: Thirty-six male C57BL/6 mice were randomly divided into a control group, a model group and an EA group, 12 mice in each group. PD model was established by intraperitoneal injection of 1-methyl-4-phenyl-1,2,3,6-tetrahydropyridine (MPTP) for 7 consecutive days in the model group and the EA group. From the 1st day of modeling, EA was applied at "Baihui" (GV20) and bilateral "Shenshu" (BL23) in the EA group, with continuous wave, in frequency of 2 Hz and current of 2 mA, 15 min a time, once a day for 14 days continuously. The behavioral performance was evaluated by gait test, pole climbing test and hanging test, the number of positive cells of tyrosine hydroxylase (TH) and the co-expression positive cells of Notch1/ionized calcium binding adaptor molecule 1 (Iba-1) in the substantia nigra of midbrain was assessed by immunofluorescence, the protein expression of TH, α-synuclein (α-syn), Notch1, Hes1, Iba-1, inducible nitric oxide synthase (iNOS), Arginase-1 (ARG1), tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF-α), interleukin (IL)-1β, IL-6 and IL-10 was detected by Western blot, the mRNA expression of Notch1 and Hes1 was detected by real-time PCR. RESULTS: Compared with the control group, in the model group, the stride frequency was accelerated (P<0.001) and the stride length was shortened (P<0.001) for the four limbs, the pole climbing test time was prolonged (P<0.01) and the grip level was reduced (P<0.01); in the substantia nigra of midbrain, the number of positive cells of TH was decreased (P<0.001), the number of co-expression positive cells of Notch1/Iba-1 was increased (P<0.001), the protein expression of α-syn, Notch1, Hes1, Iba-1, iNOS, TNF-α, IL-1βand IL-6 was increased (P<0.01, P<0.05, P<0.001), the protein expression of TH, ARG1 and IL-10 was decreased (P<0.01, P<0.001), the mRNA expression of Notch1 and Hes1 was increased (P<0.01). Compared with the model group, in the EA group, the stride frequency was decelerated (P<0.001) and the stride length was increased (P<0.05, P<0.01, P<0.001) for the four limbs, the pole climbing test time was shortened (P<0.05) and the grip level was increased (P<0.05); in the substantia nigra of midbrain, the number of positive cells of TH was increased (P<0.01), the number of co-expression positive cells of Notch1/Iba-1 was decreased (P<0.001), the protein expression of α-syn, Notch1, Hes1, Iba-1, iNOS, TNF-α, IL-6 and IL-1β was decreased (P<0.05, P<0.01), the protein expression of TH, ARG1 and IL-10 was increased (P<0.05, P<0.001, P<0.01), the mRNA expression of Notch1 and Hes1 was decreased (P<0.05). CONCLUSION EA can improve the behavioral performance and protect the dopaminergic neurons in PD mice, its mechanism may relate to the inhibition of Notch1/Hes1-mediated neuroinflammation, thus inhibiting the microglial activation.

Background During urbanization, the passenger load on urban public transport systems continues to increase, exposing bus drivers to a high risk of musculoskeletal disorders (MSDs). This occupational health issue may also potentially compromise public transport safety. Objective To investigate the prevalence of MSDs among bus drivers in a first-tier city and to explore associated influencing factors. Methods A self-administered questionnaire survey was conducted from December 2024 to March 2025 among 1300 bus drivers in a bus company. Data were collected on general demographic information, occupational activities, and MSDs indicators. A total of 1268 valid questionnaires were returned, yielding a response rate of 97.5%. Descriptive statistics were used to analyze the distribution characteristics of MSDs. Pearson χ² tests were employed to examine the association between MSDs prevalence and individual/occupational characteristics. Logistic regression was performed to identify the influencing factors of MSDs. Results The survey revealed that the prevalence of MSDs among the bus drivers was 28.5%, with the highest prevalence in the 41–50 years age group (30.5%). The conditions primarily affected the cervical spine (60.5%) and lumbar spine (61.9%), with some cases involving multiple sites. The logistic regression model indicated that the following factors were associated with a higher risk of MSDs: frequent smoking (OR=1.477), poor or moderate self-reported health status (OR=4.422), 11–20 years of service (OR=1.749), daily cumulative driving time ≥361 min (OR=1.616), frequent whole-body fatigue during driving (OR=2.077), occasional whole-body fatigue during driving (OR=1.873), feeling tense during driving (OR=1.518), fatigue after work (OR=2.485), work-related stress (OR=1.882), and prolonged smartphone use with head-down posture (OR=1.671). Conversely, occasional exercise (OR=0.713)/frequent exercise (OR=0.569), driving intervals ≥21 min per round (OR=0.645), and perceiving the driving seat comfortable (OR=0.429) were associated with a lower risk of MSDs. Conclusion Physical exercise, smoking, years of service, daily cumulative driving time, driving intervals per round, prolonged smartphone use with head-down posture, self-reported health status, and psychological factors such as work-related stress are influencing factors for MSDs among bus drivers. Drivers should increase physical exercise and change unhealthy living habits. Employers should optimize working conditions, arrange reasonable driving schedules, and foster a positive work environment to reduce MSDs prevalence.

Objective To systematic evaluate the impact of applying the clinical nursing pathway(CNP)on epidural anesthetic analgesia natural delivery.Methods The randomized controlled trial(RCT)and quasi-experimental researches on the application of CNP in epidural anesthetic analgesia natural delivery were retrieved from PubMed,Cochrane Library,Embase,Web of Science,China Knowledge Network database,Wanfang database,VIP and the Chinese Biomedical Literature Database.The retrieval time limit was from January 1,2014,to July 31,2024 with no language limitation.The meta analysis on the included studies was performed by applying RevMan5.4.1.Results A total of 5 RCTs and 2 quasi-experimental studies were in-cluded,involving 979 parturients with deliveries.The meta analysis showed that compared with the conven-tional nursing,CNP could shorten the duration of the first stage of labor(MD=—1.06,95％CI:—1.95——0.17,P=0.02)and the duration of the second stage of labor(MD=—0.12,95％CI:—0.21——0.03,P=0.006);decreased the rate of perineal lateral incision(RR=0.73,95％CI:0.65-0.83,P＜0.001)and inci-dence rate of postpartum urinary retention(RR=0.35,95％CI:0.20-0.63,P＜0.001);and shortened the time to lactation initiation(SMD=—1.52,95％CI:—2.38——0.66,P＜0.001).There was no influence on reducing postpartum 24 h hemorrhage amount(SMD=—0.51,95％CI:—1.23-0.21,P=0.16).The study subjects were divided into the primipara women subgroup and unclassified parturients subgroup.Compared with the conventional nursing group,compared with the conventional nursing,CNP had no impact on the dura-tion of the first stage of labor(MD=—0.32,95％CI:—0.61-0.98,P=0.63)and the duration of the second stage of labor(MD=—0.11,95％CI:—0.25-0.04,P=0.15)in the primipara women subgroup.CNP could reduce the postpartum 24 h hemorrhage volume in the unclassified parturients subgroup(SMD=—1.47,95％CI:—1.72——1.21,P＜0.001).Conclusion Application of CNP in parturients labor analgesia could reduce the perineal lateral incision rate and incidence rate of postpartum urinary retention and shorten the time to lac-tation initiation.Due to the heterogeneity among studies,the impact of CNP on the labor duration and the bleeding amount within postpartum 24 h still requires more high-quality studies to be conducted in the future for verification.

Diabetes is a common chronic non-infectious disease. Diabetic patients not only suffer from metabolic disorders, but are also prone to immune deficiencies and are at a higher risk of being infected with human papillomavirus (HPV). Many studies at home and abroad have shown that the HPV infection rate of patients with diabetes is higher than that of non-diabetic patients. Patients with diabetes can benefit from HPV vaccination, and the tolerance is good. HPV vaccination is recommended for diabetic patients. This article reviews the research on diabetes, HPV infection, and HPV vaccine, which will provide references for HPV vaccination in diabetic patients.

Conclusion:The clinical manifestations of male anti-MDA5 antibody-positive patients are different from those of female. The incidence of ILD is low, but the proportion of PR-ILD is high. The course of disease, serum LDH level, and RP-ILD are prognostic factors of male anti-MDA5 antibody-positive patients.

Objective Based on the U.S.Food and Drug Administration Adverse Event Reporting System(FAERS)database,data mining was conducted on hematological adverse events related to antibody drug conjugates(ADC),providing reference for the safe use of ADC drugs in clinical practice.Methods The report data from the third quarter of 2011 to the fourth quarter of 2022 were retrieved from the FAERS database.After data cleaning such as deduplication and name standardization,extract hematological adverse events related to ADC,and use report odds ratio method and the information component method for signal detection.Results A total of 101 610 adverse event reports were extracted,with 8 ADC drugs as the primary suspected drugs,and 5 768 ADC related hematological adverse event reports.Among them,3 423 cases of agranulocytosis were involved,and the signal intensity from strong to weak were sacituzumab govitecan(SG),gemtuzumab ozogamicin(GO),brentuximab vedotin(BV),polatuzumab vedotin(PV),enfortumab vedotin(EV),trastuzumab deruxtecan(TD),inotuzumab ozogamicin(IO)and ado-trastuzumab emtansine(TDM-1).There were 2 327 cases hematopoietic cell deficiency,with signals ranging from strong to weak were IO,SG,BV,EV,PV,TD,TDM-1,and GO.Report with clinical outcome of death of ADC drug related hematological adverse events included BV 179(16.84％),TDM-1 102(13.01％),TD 88(27.08％),GO 12(16.90％),IO 8(11.59％),EV 54(24.32％),PV 22(27.16％),and SG 84(21.05％).Adverse event time analysis showed that the number of events on the first day of TD,IO,and SG medication accounts for ≥ 40％of the total number of cases.The median time of hematological adverse events in TD,GO,IO,EV,PV,and SG was within one treatment course(21 days).Conclusion Attention should be paid to the risk of ADC drug-related hematological adverse event,during the clinical medication process,blood cell count changes should be closely monitored,and any abnormalities should be promptly diagnosed and treated.

Parkinson's disease is a neurodegenerative disease associated with abnormal copper metabolism in the brain,which leads to misfolding and aggregation of α-synuclein-copper complexes,which is an important pathological sign of Parkinson's disease.Copper metabolism,i.e.,cellular metabolic processes involving copper ions,is closely related to the pathogenesis of α-synuclein aggregation,dopamine metabolism,mitochondrial dysfunction,oxidative stress,and ferroptosis in Parkinson's disease.In this review,we summarize the molecular metabolic mechanism of copper toxicity by studying the pathological role of copper metabolism in Parkinson's disease,to support our further understanding of the mechanism of action and drug development.

Objective To analyze the effect of extended care in patients with gestational heart disease under the mode of multi-disciplinary team(MDT).Methods A total of 116 patients with gestational heart disease admitted to Liaocheng Second People's Hospital from June 2020 to June 2022 were selected as the study objects,and the patients were divided into observation group and control group according to nursing method,with 58 patients in each group.All the patients delivered in our hospital,and the control group received routine clinical intervention after delivery.The observation group was given continuous nursing intervention under MDT mode,including team building,intervention implementation and psychological nursing.First,a management team was established and a WeChat group was formed.The team members include 1 deputy chief physician of obstetrics,1 deputy chief physician of cardiology,1 dietitian,1 psychotherapist,1 head nurse of obstetrics,1 head nurse of cardiology,3 responsible nurses of obstetrics and 3 responsible nurses of cardiology.Then the nursing intervention was divided into 3 stages:prenatal,postpartum,and postpartum.Finally,in the hospital and during the follow-up,we communicated with the patients to understand their basic situation,provided targeted guidance,and directed them to shift their attention from negative emotions.Both groups were treated for 6 months.The self-rated abilities for health practices scale(SRAHP)was used to evaluate the patient's health behavior ability(including nutrition status,exercise,health responsibility,and psychological well-being),and atrial fibrillation-quality of life-18(AF-QoL-18)was used to evaluate the patient's quality of life(including physiological,psychological,and sexual function).Cervical local microcirculation(including blood perfusion,capillary tube diameter,microvascular tube diameter),postpartum blood loss at 2 hours and 24 hours,postpartum hospital stay,maternal and infant adverse outcomes(including postpartum hemorrhage,heart failure,maternal death,neonatal death)of the two groups were observed.Results After intervention,all SRAHP scores,AF-QoL-18 scores and cervical local microcirculation levels in both groups were significantly improved compared to before intervention,and the above indexes in the observation group were significantly higher than those in the control group after intervention[nutrition score:25.06±2.31 vs.19.72±2.68,exercise score:25.54±1.45 vs.19.14±3.65,health responsibility score:24.17±2.33 vs.20.54±2.52,psychological well-being score:25.03±1.62 vs.21.34±3.35,blood perfusion(mL/min):1.10±0.18 vs.0.44±0.15,capillary tube diameter(μm):5.94±0.45 vs.3.41±0.67,microvascular tube diameter(μm):56.59±2.13 vs.44.12±3.78,physiological score:3.86±1.13 vs.3.41±1.04,psychological score:4.13±0.64 vs.3.67±1.42,sexual function score:4.02±0.67 vs.3.78±0.75,all P<0.05].The amount of postpartum blood loss at 2 hours and 24 hours in the observation group was reduced compared to the control group[2 hours postnatal(mL):95.26±10.53 vs.142.74±18.45,24 hours postnatal(mL):183.61±17.54 vs.262.19±38.56,both P<0.05],and the postpartum hospital stay was shorter than the control group(days:5.07±1.48 vs.8.12±2.45,P<0.05),the total incidence of adverse outcomes was lower than that of the control group[1.72%(1/58)vs.12.07%(7/58),P<0.05].Conclusion The continuous nursing intervention under the mode of MDT cooperation can enhance the ability of healthy behavior,improve cervical local microcirculation,promote postpartum recovery,reduce adverse outcomes of maternal and infant,and improve the quality of life of pregnant heart disease patients to a certain extent.
