Objective To establish a method for rapid detection of tramadol in urine by liquid-liquid extraction（LLE）-surface-enhanced Raman spectroscopy （SERS）. Methods Tramadol was extracted from urine with chloroform∶isopropyl alcohol （9∶1） extractant and detected in urine samples by enhanced Raman spectroscopy （wavelength 785 nm）. Results The quantitative curve of tramadol was Y=204.35 X−465.62, r=0.9952, and the linear range was 1-100 μg/ml. The detection limit of tramadol by this method （S/N=3） was 0.53 μg/ml. The sensitivity of SERS was higher than that of conventional methods, and it had reasonable reproducibility. Conclusion This method is simple, efficient and economical, and can be used for qualitative and quantitative analysis of tramadol personalized medicine.

Body weight abnormalities, including overweight, obesity, and underweight, have become a dual public health challenge in Chinese adults: overweight and obesity lead to a variety of chronic complications, while underweight increases the risks of malnutrition, sarcopenia, and organ dysfunction. To systematically address these issues, multidisciplinary experts in endocrinology, sports science, nutrition, and psychiatry from various regions have held multiple weight management seminars. Based on the latest epidemiological data and clinical evidence, they expanded the guideline to include assessment and intervention strategies for underweight, in addition to the core content of obesity management. This guideline outlines the etiological mechanisms, evaluation methods, and multidimensional management strategies for overweight and obesity, covering key areas such as diagnosis and assessment, medical nutrition therapy, exercise prescription, pharmacological intervention, and psychological support. It is intended to provide a scientific and standardized approach to weight management across the adult population, aiming to curb the rising prevalence of obesity, mitigate complications associated with abnormal body weight, and improve nutritional status and overall quality of life.

Objective:To investigate the role of telomere length in the causal effects of immune-mediated diseases on liver fibrosis.Methods:Genome-wide association study (GWAS) data were extracted from open GWAS (https: //gwas.mrcieu.ac.uk) for a two-sample Mendelian randomization (MR) analysis. Five immune-mediated autoimmune diseases (rheumatoid arthritis, systemic lupus erythematosus, primary biliary cirrhosis, primary biliary cholangitis, and Crohn′s disease) individually and collectively were included as exposure factors, telomere length as a mediator, and liver fibrosis as the outcome. The Wald ratio and inverse variance weighted (IVW) methods were performed to assess causal effects. The MR-Egger intercept test was adopted to evaluate the level of horizontal pleiotropy. Multivariable MR was employed to quantify the proportion of the effect of immune-mediated diseases on liver fibrosis mediated by telomere length. And sensitivity analyses were performed to assess the robustness of the results.Results:The results of IVW analysis revealed that the overall category of immune-mediated diseases, rheumatoid arthritis, systemic lupus erythematosus, primary biliary cirrhosis, primary biliary cholangitis, and Crohn′s disease were causally related to the high risk of liver fibrosis, and the OR were 1.63 (95% confidence intervals (95% CI): 1.33 to 2.10), 1.28 (95% CI: 1.14 to 1.43), 1.34 (95% CI: 1.02 to 1.74), 1.36 (95% CI: 1.27 to 1.47), 1.37 (95% CI: 1.23 to 1.52), and 1.52 (95% CI: 1.15 to 2.01), respectively ( P<0.001, <0.001, =0.032, <0.001, <0.001, =0.003). Horizontal pleiotropy was detected in the association between Crohn′s disease and liver fibrosis (MR-Egger intercept test, P=0.025).The results of multivariable MR indicated that telomere length acted as a mediating factor in the causal relationship between liver fibrosis and the overall category of immune-mediated diseases, rheumatoid arthritis, systemic lupus erythematosus, primary biliary cholangitis ( OR=2.24, 95% CI: 1.41 to 3.56; OR=1.78, 95% CI: 1.03 to 3.06; OR=2.11, 95% CI: 1.31 to 3.40; OR=2.01, 95% CI: 1.06 to 3.80; P<0.001, =0.038, =0.002, =0.032, respectively ). Conclusion:The causal effects of the overall category of immune-mediated diseases, rheumatoid arthritis, systemic lupus erythematosus, and primary biliary cholangitis on liver fibrosis are mediated by telomere length.

Glutamine provides carbon and nitrogen to support the proliferation of cancer cells. However, the precise reason why cancer cells are particularly dependent on glutamine remains unclear. In this study, we report that glutamine modulates the tumor suppressor F-box and WD repeat domain-containing 7 (FBW7) to promote cancer cell proliferation and survival. Specifically, lysine 604 (K604) in the sixth of the 7 substrate-recruiting WD repeats of FBW7 undergoes glutaminylation (Gln-K604) by glutaminyl tRNA synthetase. Gln-K604 inhibits SCFFBW7-mediated degradation of c-Myc and Mcl-1, enhances glutamine utilization, and stimulates nucleotide and DNA biosynthesis through the activation of c-Myc. Additionally, Gln-K604 promotes resistance to apoptosis by activating Mcl-1. In contrast, SIRT1 deglutaminylates Gln-K604, thereby reversing its effects. Cancer cells lacking Gln-K604 exhibit overexpression of c-Myc and Mcl-1 and display resistance to chemotherapy-induced apoptosis. Silencing both c-MYC and MCL-1 in these cells sensitizes them to chemotherapy. These findings indicate that the glutamine-mediated signal via Gln-K604 is a key driver of cancer progression and suggest potential strategies for targeted cancer therapies based on varying Gln-K604 status.

OBJECTIVE: Lipid oxidation is involved in the pathogenesis of atherosclerosis and may be contribute to the development of Ischemic stroke (IS). However, the lipid profiles associated with IS have been poorly studied. We conducted a pilot study to identify potential IS-related lipid molecules and pathways using lipidomic profiling. METHODS: Serum lipidomic profiling was performed using LC-MS in 20 patients with IS and 20 age- and sex-matched healthy controls. Univariate and multivariate analyses were simultaneously performed to identify the differential lipids. Multiple testing was controlled for using a false discovery rate (FDR) approach. Enrichment analysis was performed using MetaboAnalyst software. RESULTS: Based on the 294 lipids assayed, principal component analysis (PCA) and orthogonal partial least squares discriminant analysis (OPLS-DA) models were used to distinguish patients with IS from healthy controls. Fifty-six differential lipids were identified with an FDR-adjusted P less than 0.05 and variable influences in projection (VIP) greater than 1.0. These lipids were significantly enriched in glycerophospholipid metabolism (FDR-adjusted P = 0.009, impact score = 0.216). CONCLUSIONS Serum lipid profiles differed significantly between patients with IS and healthy controls. Thus, glycerophospholipid metabolism may be involved in the development of IS. These results provide initial evidence that lipid molecules and their related metabolites may serve as new biomarkers and potential therapeutic targets for IS.
