Objective To construct a symptom network in patients with acute type A aortic dissection(ATAAD),so as to provide theoretical basis for the screening of dissection ATAAD during emergency pre-screening triage.Methods There were 433 patients diagnosed with ATAAD during 2019 to 2023 in an emergency department of a tertiary hospital in Wuhan.Their basic information and medical records were reviewed by self-designed data questionnaire.UCINET6.0 software was used to construct a symptom network,analyze the centrality index and determine the core symptoms.Symptom distribution of patients with positive and negative blood pressure in extremities was analyzed in the further.Results The most common symptoms in patients with type A aortic dissection were chest pain(77.37％),back pain(42.96％),and sweating(29.79％).In the symptom network,chest pain had the highest degree(rs=659).The closeness of chest pain,chest tightness,shortness of breath,back pain,nausea and vomiting,limb numbness and fatigue were same(rc=93.33).Fatigue has the highest betweenness(rb=13.69).Patients with positive limbs blood pressure mainly reported chest pain(70.17％),back pain(44.96％),and nausea and vomiting(19.33％),while those with negative limb blood pressure mainly reported chest pain(63.64％),back pain(63.64％),and orosphyalgia(39.40％).Orosphyalgia had the highest degree(rs=20).Conclusion The symptoms of ATAAD are complex and varied in patients.During triage,nurses should measure the limb blood pressure when patients complained chest pain alone or when combined with other hypoperfusion symptoms,such as back pain,chest tightness,sweating,near-death sensation,and shortness of breath.Aortic dissection cannot be ruled out in patients with negative blood pressure when they had chest pain,back pain or orosphyalgia.

Objectives:To explore the relationship between carboxymethyl lysine (CML) and type 2 diabetes (T2DM) with myopenia, so as to provide some clinical reference for clinical prevention and early intervention of myopenia.Methods:A case-control study was conducted, selecting 142 T2DM patients admitted to the Endocrinology Department of the Affiliated Hospital of North China University of Science and Technology from November 2022 to November 2023. According to the diagnostic criteria of the 2019 consensus of experts on the diagnosis and treatment of sarcopenia, the patients were divided into a case group (T2DM with sarcopenia, 58 cases) and a control group (T2DM without sarcopenia, 84 cases). Collect and compare general information, serological data, and body composition data of two groups of patients. Two independent sample t-test is used for inter group comparison of metric data that conforms to normal distribution; Non parametric tests are used for inter group comparisons of non normally distributed quantitative data; The comparison of count data between groups is conducted using χ2 test. Multivariate logistic regression analysis was used to analyze the relationship between carboxymethyl lysine and type 2 diabetes with myopenia. Draw receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curves and analyze the efficacy of carboxymethyllysine in diagnosing T2DM with muscle atrophy. Results:Univariate analysis showed the BMI ((21.59±3.04) kg/m 2), FINS (4.49 (1.85,9.03) U/L), and FCP ((1.45±0.96) mg/L) levels of the patients in the case group were lower than those in the control group(27.32±3.74) kg/m 2, 6.91 (3.74, 11.99) U/L, (2.64±1.23) mg/L), while age, ((64.67±6.75) years old) of disease duration(12.16±6.69) years, and CML (5.70±2.14 μg/L) were higher than those in the control group ((62.23±7.33) years old, (8.70±8.01) years, (2.38±0.73) μg/L), and the differences were statistically significant (Statistical values were t=9.66, Z=2.86, t=6.46, t=2.02, t=2.70, t=13.17; P values were <0.001, 0.004, <0.001, 0.046, 0.008, <0.001). Multifactorial binary logistic regression analysis showed that CML ( OR(95%CI):3.242 (1.933-5.437)) and BMI ( OR(95%CI):0.636 (0.505-0.801)) were associated with T2DM combined with sarcopenia (all P<0.001). The results of the ROC curve showed that the area under the curve (AUC) of CML was 0.934, and the corresponding optimal cut-off value was 3.038 μg/L. The diagnostic efficacy of CML for the diagnosis of T2DM combined with myasthenia gravis was high, and the diagnostic results were in good agreement with the actual results. Conclusions:Carboxymethyl lysine is associated with T2DM combined with muscle atrophy. CML has a high diagnostic efficacy in diagnosing T2DM combined with muscle atrophy, and it has certain practical value in diagnosing T2DM combined with muscle atrophy.

Aim To investigate the impact of G pro-tein-coupled estrogen receptor 1(GPER1),also known as GPR30 playing a significant role in the nerv-ous system,on neuronal damage and cognitive dysfunc-tion following epileptic seizures.Methods The pro-tein expression levels of GPER1 and the DNA damage marker γ-H2AX in epileptic rats were assessed using Western blot.The hippocampal neuronal damage and apoptosis in pilocarpine-induced epilepsy models were evaluated using Nissl and TUNEL staining techniques,compared with GPER1 knockdown(GPER1-KD)rats with wild-type(WT)controls.The behavioral activi-ties,including memory and spatial learning,were mo-nitored during the chronic phase of epilepsy using the IntelliCage system.Results Compared to the control group,GPER1 protein expression in the cerebral cortex and hippocampus significantly increased 24 hours post-epilepsy onset.In the GPER1-KD+EP group,hipp-ocampal neuronal damage was more severe,with a sig-nificant increase in apoptotic neurons compared to the WT+EP group.The IntelliCage data revealed that during free exploration,nose contact,position learn-ing,and reverse position learning stages in the GPER1-KD+EP group exhibited fewer visits and a higher error rate than in the WT+EP group.Conclu-sions Deficiency in GPER1 impairs memory and spa-tial learning abilities following epilepsy,potentially due to exacerbated neuronal injury,apoptosis,and inflam-mation.GPER1 represents a promising therapeutic tar-get for mitigating post-epileptic nerve damage and cog-nitive impairment.

BACKGROUND:Exploring the effects of foot contact patterns based on footwork on the joint movement characteristics of human lower limbs in table tennis can provide a scientific basis for guiding lower limb training.OBJECTIVE:To analyze the differences in kinematic and kinetic characteristics of table tennis athletes under different ground contact patterns.METHODS:Motion capture system and three-dimensional force platform were used to synchronously collect kinematic and kinetic data of the dominant side lower limb of 17 professional table tennis athletes in normal foot contact pattern and full-foot contact pattern.Paired t-tests were used to analyze the statistical differences in discrete metrics such as joint angles,ground reaction forces,joint reaction forces,and joint moments.Statistical parametric mapping was employed to analyze the statistical differences in continuous time-series data,such as the movement trajectory of the center foot of pressure and the knee joint moments.RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:(1)In the normal foot contact pattern,knee internal rotation,lateral ground reaction force,knee vertical reaction force,and knee extension moment were significantly higher than those in the full-foot contact pattern.(2)In the 89%-91%movement phase of the distance traveled by the plantar center of pressure,the center of pressure in the normal foot contact pattern was significantly farther away from that in the full-foot contact pattern.(3)In the 23%-38%movement phase of the X-axis torque curve,the knee extension moment in the normal foot contact pattern was significantly higher than that in the full-foot contact pattern.(4)In the 8%-18%phase of the Y-axis torque curve,the knee extension moment in the full-foot contact pattern was significantly higher than that in the normal foot contact pattern.By comparing the difference in lower limb biomechanical characteristics between different ground contact patterns and statistical parametric mapping analysis results,the full-foot contact pattern may be an important factor affecting athletes'performance.It is necessary to adjust and practice the touch patterns to avoid the use of full-footed touch patterns to improve the lower limb athletic ability of table tennis athletes.

Objective:To analyze the predictive role of WT1 expression levels pre-and early post-transplantation on relapse and overall survival(OS)in patients with acute myeloid leukemia(AML)undergoing allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation(allo-HSCT)during their first complete remission(CR1).Methods:A retrospective analysis was conducted on the clinical data of 107 adult AML patients who underwent allo-HSCT during their CR1 at our center between May 2012 and December 2021.The predictive role of bone marrow WT1 expression levels before transplantation and at 3 and 6 months post-transplantation on relapse and OS was explored in combination with relevant clinical factors.Results:The median follow-up time for the 107 patients was 70(range:11-117)months.Among the patients,15 cases died.Kaplan-Meier survial analysis showed that the 3-year overall survival(OS)rate was 85.0％.20 patients experienced relapse,with a median time to relapse of 8(range:0.5-44)months and a l-year cumulative relapse rate of 13.1％.The overall median value of WT1 before transplantation,3 months after transplantation,and 6 months after transplantation was 0.26％(range:0％-23.64％),with an upper quartile value of 0.74％.No statistically significant differences in WT1 expression levels were observed among the pre-transplantation,3-month post-transplantation,and 6-month post-transplantation time points(P=0.227).Univariate analysis showed that patients with WT1 levels＞0.74％at 3 months post-transplantation had a higher 1-year relapse rate(P=0.029)and lower 3-year OS rate(P＜0.001)compared to patients with WT1 levels ≤0.74％.Other significant factors affecting 1-year relapse included stem cell source(P=0.041)and chronic graft-versus-host disease(cGVHD)(P=0.013).For 3-year OS,additional influencing factors were genetic high risk(P=0.048)and stem cell source(P=0.016).Multivariate analysis revealed that WT1 level＞0.74％at 3 months post-transplantation had a trend to affect 1-year relapse rate(HR=3.309,95％CI:0.958-11.431,P=0.058),while the absence of cGVHD was an independent risk factor for 1-year relapse(HR=3.473,95％CI:0.749-16.100,P=0.037).Only WT1 level＞0.74％at 3 months post-transplantation was an independent risk factor for 3-year OS(HR=6.886,95％CI:2.402-19.738,P＜0.001).Conclusion:High WT1 expression level at 3 months post-transplantation in AML patients undergoing allo-HSCT during CR1 affects the 1-year relapse rate and 3-year OS,and is an independent risk factor affecting 3-year OS.These findings suggest that dynamic monitoring of WT1 expression levels has certain value in prognostic assessment of AML patients who received allo-HSCT during CR1.

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.
