[摘 要] 目的：探讨环状RNA CEMIP（circCEMIP）对膀胱癌UMUC-3细胞增殖、迁移和侵袭的影响及其分子机制。方法：通过TCGA数据库分析circCEMIP在膀胱癌组织中的表达水平，分析其表达与膀胱癌患者临床分期及生存期的关系。采用qPCR法检测circCEMIP在膀胱癌细胞5637、UMUC-3、MGH-U3、J82和T24中的表达。利用RNA干扰技术，分别将si-circCEMIP及其阴性对照（si-NC）、anti-miR-335及其阴性对照（anti-miR-NC）转染UMUC-3细胞，记为si-circCEMIP组、si-NC组、si-circCEMIP + anti-miR-335组和si-circCEMIP + anti-miR-NC组。采用克隆形成实验、划痕愈合实验和Transwell实验分别检测circCEMIP和miR-335表达对UMUC-3细胞增殖、迁移和侵袭能力的影响，双萤光素酶报告基因实验验证circCEMIP与miR-335的靶向关系，WB法检测细胞中VEGF-C信号通路相关蛋白的表达。构建UMUC-3细胞裸鼠皮下移植瘤模型，观察敲低circCEMIP对移植瘤生长的影响。结果：膀胱癌组织中circCEMIP呈高表达（P < 0.01），其表达水平与膀胱癌的临床分期正相关（P < 0.01），circCEMIP高表达患者生存率较低（P < 0.01）。circCEMIP在膀胱癌5637、UMUC-3、MGH-U3、J82和T24细胞中呈高表达（均P < 0.01）。敲低circCEMIP显著降低UMUC-3细胞的增殖、迁移和侵袭能力（均P < 0.01）。circCEMIP可靶向结合miR-335（P < 0.01），敲低circCEMIP能显著上调miR-335表达（P < 0.01）。抑制miR-335表达能逆转敲低circCEMIP对UMUC-3细胞增殖、迁移和侵袭的抑制作用（均P < 0.01）。敲低circCEMIP能明显下调VEGF-C信号通路相关蛋白VEGF-C、MMP-2、MMP-9和β-catenin表达（均P < 0.01），抑制miR-335表达能部分逆转敲低circCEMIP对该通路相关蛋白表达的抑制作用（均P < 0.01）。体内实验证实，敲低circCEMIP能够抑制裸鼠膀胱癌移植瘤的生长（P < 0.01）。结论：敲低circCEMIP通过上调miR-335表达抑制膀胱癌UMUC-3细胞的增殖、迁移和侵袭。

Objective To investigate the therapeutic effect of Huangkui capsules on targeted drug-related proteinuria in patients with hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). Methods A retrospective analysis was conducted on clinical data of HCC patients with targeted drug-related proteinuria from June 2023 to December 2024 at Zhongshan Hospital, Fudan University. According to the treatment plan, patients were divided into the conventional treatment group and the Huangkui combination treatment group (Huangkui capsules combined with conventional treatment), and the clinical efficacy between the two groups was compared. The logistic regression analysis was used to identify the main factors affecting treatment efficacy. Results The Huangkui combination treatment group (n＝29) showed a significantly higher overall effective rate (79.3% vs 42.3%, P＝0.005), and an earlier proteinuria improvement (median time: 3 months vs 6 months, P＝0.008) than the conventional treatment group (n＝26) . The multivariate logistic regression analysis showed angiotensin-converting enzyme inhibitor (ACEI) or angiotensin Ⅱ receptor blocker (ARB) using (OR＝0.190, 95%CI 0.045-0.808, P＝0.025), targeted drug adjustment (OR＝0.132, 95%CI 0.030-0.581, P＝0.007), and Huangkui capsules using (OR＝0.168, 95%CI 0.039-0.730, P＝0.017) were protective factors for treatment efficacy of targeted drug-related proteinuria. Conclusions On the basis of conventional treatment, additive treatment with Huangkui capsules can alleviate targeted drug-related proteinuria faster and more effectively in HCC patients.

Objective To evaluate the predictive value of different machine learning models constructed in a multicenter environment for potential organ donors and verify their clinical application feasibility. Methods The study included 2 000 inpatients admitted to five domestic tertiary hospitals from January 2020 to December 2023, who met the criteria for potential organ donation assessment. They were randomly divided into a training set and an internal validation set (7∶3). Another 300 similar patients admitted to the First Affiliated Hospital of Harbin Medical University from January 2024 to April 2025 were included as an external validation set. The area under the curve (AUC), sensitivity, specificity, accuracy and F1-score of three models were compared, and the consistency of the potential organ donor determination process was tested. Multivariate logistic regression analysis was used to identify predictive factors of potential organ donors. Decision curve analysis (DCA) was employed to verify the resource efficiency of each model, and the threshold interval and intervention balance point were assessed. Results Apart from age, there were no significant differences in other basic characteristics among the centers (all P>0.05). The consistency of the potential organ donor determination process among researchers in each center was good [all 95% confidence interval (CI) lower limits >0]. In the internal validation set, the XGBoost model had the best predictive performance (AUC=0.92, 95% CI 0.89-0.94) and the best calibration (P=0.441, Brier score 0.099). In the external validation set, the XGBoost model also had the best predictive performance (AUC=0.91, 95% CI 0.88-0.94), outperforming logistic regression and random forest models. Multivariate logistic regression showed that mechanical ventilation had the greatest impact (odds ratio=2.06, 95% CI 1.54-2.76, P<0.001). DCA indicated that the XGBoost model had the highest net benefit in the threshold interval of 0.2-0.6. The “treat all” strategy only had a slight advantage at extremely low thresholds. The recommended threshold interval, which balances intervention costs and clinical benefits, considers ≥50% positive predictive value (PPV) and ≤50 referrals per 100 high-risk patients. Conclusions The XGBoost model established in a multicenter environment is accurate and well-calibrated in predicting potential organ donors. Combined with DCA, it may effectively guide the timing of clinical interventions and resource allocation, providing new ideas for the assessment and management of organ donation after brain death.

Objective To explore the clinical value of preoperative assessment and intraoperative frozen section pathology in screening patients suitable for testicular preservation surgery, so as to provide reference for reducing unnecessary radical orchiectomy in patients with benign testicular tumors. Methods A retrospective analysis was conducted on 121 patients who underwent surgical treatment for testicular tumors in the First Affiliated Hospital of Xi'an Jiaotong University during Jan. 2021 and Sep. 2025. Data were collected, including demographic information, preoperative imaging, serum tumor markers, surgical procedures, intraoperative frozen section, postoperative pathology, and postoperative testicular volume changes. Results Among the 121 patients, 105 underwent radical orchiectomy, with 91 malignant and 14 benign cases confirmed by postoperative pathology; 16 received testicular tumor enucleation, all confirmed as benign. Benign lesions accounted for 24.79% (30/121) of all cases. In patients undergoing tumor enucleation, intraoperative frozen section results were fully consistent with final pathological findings. Conclusion Preoperative differentiation between benign and malignant testicular tumors is crucial for selecting the appropriate surgical approach. For patients with preoperative findings suggesting benign lesions, testicular tumor enucleation combined with intraoperative frozen section can achieve precise treatment while maximizing testicular preservation.

Objective To explore the mediating role of activities of daily living (ADL) in pain and depressive symptoms in the elderly in China. Methods Utilizing the data from 2020 China Health and Retirement Longitudinal Study, 4403 Chinese elderly individuals aged ≥ 60 years old were selected as the research subjects. Depression Scale (CES-D 10) of the Center for Epidemiological Survey and ADL scale were used in the study. The PROCESS4.1 macro was used to test the mediating effect of daily living activities between pain and depressive symptoms, and the Bootstrap method was applied for verification of the mediating variables. Results A total of 2368 cases of depressive symptoms were detected in the elderly in China, with a detection rate of 53.78%. Pain was positively correlated with depressive symptoms (r=0.27, P<0.01), and activities of daily living were negatively correlated with pain and depressive symptoms (r=-0.27, -0.337, P<0.01). The results showed that the total effect value of pain on depressive symptoms was 0.33, the direct effect value was 0.24, and the mediating effect value of daily living activities was 0.09, accounting for 27.27%. Conclusion Pain and activities of daily living are important factors influencing depressive symptoms in the elderly, and activities of daily living play a partial mediating role in the relationship between pain and depressive symptoms in the elderly.

Background: and Purpose Ruptured intracranial aneurysms (RIA) are associated with a mortality rate of up to 40% in the Chinese population, highlighting the critical need for targeted treatment interventions for at-risk individuals. Although the impact of aldehyde dehydrogenase 2 (ALDH2) gene mutations on susceptibility to intracranial aneurysms (IA) is well documented, the potential connection between ALDH2 rs671 single-nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) and RIA remains unexplored. Given the increased prevalence of ALDH2 gene mutations among Chinese Han individuals, it is clinically relevant to investigate the link between ALDH2 rs671 SNP and IA rupture. Methods: A prospective study was conducted on 546 patients diagnosed with IA to investigate the association between ALDH2 rs671 SNP and the risk of IA rupture. Results: The ALDH2 rs671 SNP (ALDH2*2) was significantly more prevalent in patients with unruptured IA (UIA) than in those with RIA (32.56% vs. 18.58%, P=0.004). Multivariate logistic regression analysis revealed that people with the ALDH2 mutation (ALDH2*1/*2 and ALDH2*2/*2 gene type) had a significantly reduced odds ratio (OR=0.49; 95% confidence level [CI] 0.27–0.88; P=0.018) for RIAs. Age-specific subgroup analysis indicated that the ALDH2 mutation provided a stronger protective effect in individuals aged 60 years and above with IA compared to those under 60 years old (OR=0.38 vs. OR=0.52, both P<0.05). Conclusion The incidence of RIA was significantly higher in individuals with a normal ALDH2 gene (ALDH2*1/*1) than in those with an ALDH2 rs671 SNP (ALDH2*1/*2 or ALDH2*2/*2). ALDH2 rs671 SNP may serve as a protective factor against RIA in the Chinese Han population.

Objective To investigate the protective effect of benzoylaconine(BAC)on H9c2 cardio-myocytes after oxygen glucose deprivation/reoxyenation(OGD/R)injury.Methods After an in vitro model of OGD/R injury was established in H9c2 cells,the cells were treated with BAC at different concentrations(0,25,50,75,100 μmol/L)to determine its optimal dose.Then,H9c2 cells were randomly divided into control group,OGD/R group,OGD/R+BAC group(75 μmol),OGD/R+LY294002 group(PI3K/Akt inhibitor),and OGD/R+LY294002+BAC group.Corre-sponding reagent kits were used to determine cell viability and LDH level,as well as the expres-sion levels of TNF-α,IL-6,IL-1β,MDA and GSH-Px in the cells.Western blotting was applied to detect the expression of the PI3K/Akt pathway proteins,as well as autophagic proteins such as LC3,Beclin1,and P62.Results Compared to the control group,the cell viability was significantly decreased,and LDH level was obviously increased in the OGD/R group(P＜0.01).Treatment of 75 μmol/L BAC significantly increased the cell viability(0.87±0.06 vs 40.49±0.06,P＜0.01)and decreased the LDH level(86.75±7.79 U/L vs 234.42±6.20 U/L,P＜0.01)when compared to the levels of the OGD/R group.OGD/R injury induced notable increases in TNF-α,IL-6,IL-1β,and MDA expression levels,while decrease of GSH-Px expression level(P＜0.01),and down-regulation of p-PI3K,p-Akt and P62 and up-regulation of LC3 Ⅱ/LC3 Ⅰ and Beclin-1(P＜0.01)when compared with the control group.Treatment of 75 μmol/L BAC increased the levels of p-PI3K,p-Akt,and P62 proteins(0.90±0.07 vs 0.58±0.04,1.02±0.02 vs 0.49±0.01,1.48±0.05 vs 0.87±0.04)and decreased those of LC3 Ⅱ/LC3 Ⅰ and Beclin-1(0.52±0.01 vs 1.24±0.04,0.12±0.01 vs 0.32±0.02)when compared with the OGD/R group(P＜0.01).Conclusions BAC attenu-ates the inflammatory response and oxidative stress of myocardial cells after OGD/R injury,regu-lates autophagy homeostasis,and reduces myocardial cell damage.Its regulatory effect on myocar-dial autophagy homeostasis may be related to the activation of the PI3K/Akt pathway.

Objective To analyze the characteristics of methadone-related poisoning cases and provide a reference for forensic identification.Methods A total of 71 cases of methadone-related poisoning re-ported from 1998 to 2023 in China and 26 cases of methadone-related deaths reported from 2013 to 2018 in Italy were retrieved from databases including PubMed,Wanfang and CNKI.The general infor-mation,forensic pathological and toxicological characteristics were analyzed.Results Among the 71 methadone-related poisoning cases in China,there were 54 cases(76.06%)of poisoning without death and 17 cases(23.94%)of death from poisoning.There were 54 male cases(76.06%),and 51 cases(71.83%)aged 19 to 39 years old.There were 35 cases(49.30%)of poisoning caused by methadone alone,and 32 cases(45.07%)were poisoning caused by methadone combined with other substances or drugs including heroin and benzodiazepines.Most of the poisoned showed coma,respiratory depres-sion and miosis.Signs of asphyxia were often found by autopsy.The mass concentration of methadone detected in the blood of 6 deceased ranged from 0.112 to 3.000 mg/L.Among the 26 methadone-related deaths in Italy,22 cases were male(84.62%).There were 6 cases(23.08%)caused by methadone alone,and 20 cases(76.92%)died from methadone combined with other substances or drugs.The mass concentration of methadone in blood ranged from 0.181 to 4.059 mg/L.Conclusion The propor-tions of poisoning cases caused by methadone alone and methadone combined with other substances or drugs are comparable in China.The majority of deceased caused by methadone poisoning shows typi-cal triad of coma,respiratory depression and miosis,which helps forensic experts determine the cause of death related to methadone.Additionally,it is necessary to increase the routine testing of the con-centration of methadone and its combined substances or drugs in deceased,and collect data for the in-terpretation of the results of related cases.

[Objective] To analyse and predict the tendencies of using erythrocyte blood in Changsha based on the autoregressive integrated moving average (ARIMA) model, long short-term memory (LSTM) and ARIMA-LSTM combination model, so as to provide reliable basis for designing a feasible and effective blood inventory management strategy. [Methods] The data of erythrocyte usage from hospitals in Changsha between January 2012 and December 2023 were collected, and ARIMA model, LSTM model and ARIMA-LSTM combination model were established. The actual erythrocyte consumption from January to May 2024 were used to assess and verify the prediction effect of the models. The extrapolation prediction accuracy of the models were tested using two evaluation indicators: mean absolute percentage error (MAPE) and root mean square error (RMSE), and then the prediction performance of the model was compared. [Results] The RMSE of LSTM model, optimal model ARIMA(1,1,1)(1,1,1)12 and ARIMA-LSTM combination model were respectively 5 206.66, 3 096.43 and 2 745.75, and the MAPE were 18.78%,11.54% and 9.76% respectively, which indicated that the ARIMA-LSTM combination model was more accurate than the ARIMA model and LSTM model, and the prediction results was basically consistent with the actual situation. [Conclusion] The ARIMA-LSTM model can better predict the clinical erythrocyte consumption in Changsha in the short term.
