Objective To study the photodynamic performance and the killing effect of photodynamic therapy on lung cancer of novel chlorin compounds 2-(4-(5,15,20-triphenyl-7H,8H-porphyrin-10-yl) phenoxy) acetic acid(D1)and 4-(4-(5,15,20-triphenyl-7H,8H-porphyrin-10-yl) phenoxy) butanoic acid (D2). Methods The ultraviolet visible absorption spectrum and fluorescence spectrum of D1 and D2 were determined. The singlet oxygen generation capacity of D1 and D2 was measured by using DPBF as singlet oxygen capture agent. Fluorescence assay was used to detect the cellular phagocytosis rate of the compounds in A549 cells, and MTT assay was used to detect their dark toxicity and phototoxicity. A nude mouse model of lung cancer was established to investigate the antitumor activity of the compounds mediated photodynamic action in vivo, and the blood concentration of D2 in nude mice, its distribution in tumor tissue and skin tissue were further detected. Results D1 and D2 had strong absorption at 652 nm with the best excitation wavelength at 429 nm and 427 nm, and the optimal emission wavelength was at about 659 nm. They also had a higher singlet oxygen generation rate than the control drug m-THPC. D1 and D2 had no dark toxicity at concentrations below 10 μmol/L, and could be ingested by A549 cells, basically reaching saturation in 18~24 hours. After laser irradiation at 650 nm wavelength, D1 and D2 showed significant antitumor activity in vivo and in vitro (P<0.01). However, D2 could selectively accumulate in tumor tissues after administration, and the optimal treatment time was less than 30 min after administration. Conclusion D2 had excellent photodynamic antitumor activity and could selectively aggregate in tumor tissues, which had the potential to be a candidate drug for photosensitizer and treatment of lung cancer with independent intellectual property rights, and was worth further research.

The shaoyang meridian is an important pivot between the internal organs and meridians system, with the functions of regulating qi and blood, balancing yin and yang, and coordinating the ascending and descending movement of qi. Dysfunction of the shaoyang pivot can lead to spleen and kidney deficiency, impaired liver and gallbladder qi regulation, and stagnation of qi and blood. It is believed that the onset and progression of Crohn's disease are closely related to shaoyang pivot dysfunction, with the core pathogenesis characterized by shaoyang disharmony, spleen deficiency, dampness retention, and blood stasis. Based on this understanding, the treatment principle centers on harmonizing the shaoyang pivot, supplemented by methods such as warming and nourishing the spleen and stomach, tonifying shaoyang, and soothing the liver and benefiting the gallbladder. Acupuncture is employed to target key acupoints along the shaoyang meridian to restore its regulatory functions, improve spleen and stomach transformation and transportation, facilitate liver and gallbladder qi flow, and promote the circulation of qi and blood. This provides a practical therapeutic approach for acupuncture-based treatment of Crohn's disease.

Objective:To develop and validate risk prediction models for hypertension comorbidity in community-dwelling patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus(T2DM).Methods:The health records of 2 979 T2DM patients from two community health service centers in Fengtai District of Beijing from January 2023 to January 2024 were collected,including 2 591 cases from Fangzhuang Center(model development group) and 388 cases from Youanmen Center(external validation group). Patients in model development group were randomly assigned in a training set( n=1 813) and an internal validation set(778 cases) at a ratio of 7∶3. The risk factors associated with hypertention comorbidity in T2DM patients were identified with LASSO regression analysis,based on which risk prediction models was developed using six machine learning algorithms,including logistic regression(LR),classification and regression tree(CART),random forest(RF),extreme gradient boosting(XGB),support vector machine(SVM) and artificial neural network(ANN). The internal and external validations of the prediction models were conducted. Results:Among 2 979 patients with T2DM,2 158(72.44%) had concurrent hypertension,with 1 572 in the development set,280 in the internal validation set,306 in the external validation set. The LASSO regression identified 14 risk factors: age,educational level,occupation,medical insurance type,alcohol consumption,exercise frequency,BMI,SBP,TG/HDL-C,METS-IR,FBG,eGFR,duration of T2DM,and dyslipidemia. The nomogram model based on 14 predictive factors was constructed with XGB algorithm showed the best performance in predicting risk of hypertention for T2DM patients,showing the highest area under the curve(AUC) of 0.694(95% CI: 0.524-0.810) and effective calibration(Brier Score=0.121). Decision curve analysis confirmed the clinical utility of the predictive model. Conclusion:The risk prediction models based on machine learning algorithms have been developed in the study,which show good prediction perfomance for hiypertention comorbidity in community-dwelling T2DM patients.

This consensus was developed by the Orthodontic Society of the Chinese Stomatological Association to provide a systematic, scientific, and practical guideline for informed consent in orthodontic care. Orthodontic treatment is typically lengthy, highly individualized, and involves multiple factors such as growth and development, occlusal function, and facial esthetics. Rapid technological advances and diverse risk profiles make the traditional reliance on orthodontist experience or institutional templates insufficient to ensure patients′ full understanding and autonomous decision-making. To address this, the expert panel conducted extensive reviews of domestic and international guidelines, analyzed representative dispute cases, and performed multicenter patient-clinician surveys. Using a multi-round Delphi method, the group established a standardized informed consent framework covering the initial consultation, treatment, and retention phases. The consensus emphasizes that informed consent is not only a fundamental legal and ethical requirement but also a key step in building trust, improving patient compliance, and enhancing treatment satisfaction. Orthodontists should clearly and comprehensively explain treatment plans, potential risks, uncertainties, and associated costs, while respecting the autonomy of patients or guardians, and maintain continuous communication and dynamic evaluation throughout the treatment process. The release of this consensus provides unified and authoritative guidance for clinical orthodontics, helping to standardize informed consent, enhance its transparency, safeguard patient rights, reduce medical risks, and promote high-quality, sustainable development of orthodontic practice.
