Objective: To evaluate the effect of community comprehensive management model intervention among patients with dyslipidemia, so as to provide the reference for optimizing community management strategies and improving the target achievement rate for blood lipids among this population. Methods: From May to June 2023, a multi-stage stratified random sampling method was employed to select patients with dyslipidemia from primary healthcare institutions in Jiaxing City, Zhejiang Province. Eligible participants were randomly assigned to either a control group or an intervention group. The control group received routine management, while the intervention group was subjected to a community comprehensive management model in addition to the routine care. Both groups were followed up for 24 months. Data on demographic characteristics, lifestyle behaviors, physical examination indices, and blood biochemical indicators were collected at baseline and after the intervention through questionnaires, physical examinations, and laboratory tests. Changes in obesity rate, central obesity rate, target achievement rates for blood lipids, blood pressure, and blood glucose, as well as lifestyle modifications, were analyzed. Differences between the two groups before and after the intervention were assessed using generalized estimating equations (GEE). Results: The control group consisted of 560 patients, including 303 females (54.11%) and 430 individuals aged ≥65 years (76.79%). The intervention group also included 560 patients, with 300 females (53.57%) and 431 individuals aged ≥65 years (76.96%). Before the intervention, no statistically significant differences were observed between the two groups in terms of gender, age, educational level, history of chronic diseases, and atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease risk stratification (all P>0.05). After 24 months of intervention, interaction effects between group and time were observed for obesity rate, central obesity rate, target achievement rate for blood lipids, target achievement rate for blood glucose, composite target achievement rate, physical activity rate, and medication adherence (all P<0.05). Specifically, the intervention group demonstrated lower rates of obesity and central obesity, and higher target achievement rate of blood lipids, target achievement rate of blood glucose, composite target achievement rate, physical activity rate, and medication adherence compared to the control group. Conclusion The community comprehensive management model contributed to improvements in multiple metabolic parameters (including body weight, waist circumference, blood lipids, and blood glucose) among patients with dyslipidemia, and was associated with increased physical activity rate and medication adherence.

Objective: To investigate the current status and influencing factors of overweight and obesity among adults in Jiaxing City, Zhejiang Province, so as to provide a basis for developing targeted weight management measures. Methods: In 2024, a multistage stratified random cluster sampling method was employed to recruit permanent residents aged ≥18 years from Jiaxing City for questionnaire surveys. Data on basic information, lifestyle behaviors, and history of chronic diseases were collected. Height and body weight were measured, and overweight and obesity were determined based on body mass index (BMI). The influencing factors of overweight and obesity among adults were analyzed by a multivariable logistic regression model. Results: Totally 10 509 questionnaires were allocated, and 9 802 valid questionnaires were recovered, with an effective recovery rate of 93.27%. Among the respondents, 4 808 (49.05%) were males and 4 994 (50.95%) were females, with a mean age of (51.27±17.26) years. A total of 4 884 overweight and obesity individuals were identified, with a detection rate of 49.83%. Multivariable logistic regression analysis showed that gender (male, OR=1.719, 95%CI: 1.578-1.873), age (≥60 years, OR=0.802, 95%CI: 0.652-0.986), educational level (bachelor and above, OR=0.640, 95%CI: 0.518-0.791), marital status (being married/cohabiting, OR=1.224, 95%CI: 1.009-1.486), adequate nut intake (OR=0.910, 95%CI: 0.832-0.995), hypertension (OR=2.462, 95%CI: 2.219-2.732), and dyslipidemia (OR=1.629, 95%CI: 1.444-1.837) were statistically associated with overweight and obesity among adults. Conclusion The detected rate of overweight and obesity among adults in Jiaxing City was relatively high, and was mainly associated with gender, age, education level, marital status, nut intake, hypertension, and dyslipidemia.

OBJECTIVE: To explore the co-morbid influencing factors of postmenopausal osteoporosis(PMOP) and dyslipidemia, and to provide evidence-based basis for clinical co-morbidity management. METHODS: Based on the 2017 to 2018 Beijing community cross-sectional survey data, PMOP patients were included and divided into the dyslipidemia group and the uncomplicated dyslipidemia group according to whether they were comorbid with dyslipidemia. Demographic characteristics, living habits and disease history were collected through questionnaires, and bone mineral density and bone metabolism biomarkers (osteocalcin, blood calcium, serum typeⅠprocollagen N-terminal prepeptide, etc.) were detected on site. Co-morbidity risk factors were analyzed using binary logistic regression. RESULTS: Three hundred and twenty patients with PMOP were included, including the comorbid group (75 patients) and the uncomplicated group (245 patients). The results showed that history of cardiovascular disease [OR=1.801, 95%CI(1.003, 3.236), P=0.049], history of cerebrovascular disease [OR=2.923, 95%CI(1.460, 5.854), P=0.002], frying and cooking methods[OR=5.388, 95%CI(1.632, 17.793), P=0.006], OST results[OR=0.910, 95%CI(0.843, 0.983), P=0.016], and blood Ca results [OR=60.249, 95%CI(1.862, 1 949.926), P=0.021] were the influencing factors of PMOP complicated with dyslipidemia. CONCLUSION Focus should be placed on the influencing factors of PMOP and dyslipidemia co-morbidities, with emphasis on multidimensional assessment, combining lifestyle interventions with bone metabolism marker monitoring to optimize co-morbidity management.

OBJECTIVE: To screen novel diagnostic marker or therapeutic target for multiple myeloma (MM). METHODS: Sel1L, SPAG4, KCNN3 and PARM1 were identified by bioinformatics method based on GEO database as high expression genes in MM. Their RNA and protein expression levels in bone marrow mononuclear cells from myeloma cell lines U266, NCI-H929, MM.1s, RPMI8226 and leukemia cell line THP1, as well as 31 MM patients were evaluated by RT-PCR and Western blot, respectively. Meanwhile, 5 samples of bone marrow from healthy donors for allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation were employed as controls. RESULTS: Compared with leukemia cell line THP1, the expression levels of KCNN3, PARM1 and Sel1L mRNA were significantly increased in myeloma cell lines U266, NCI-H929 and MM.1s, while PARM1 was further increased in myeloma cell lines 8226. Western blot showed that the 4 genes were all expressed in the 4 myeloma cell lines. Compared with healthy controls, the expression levels of Sel1L, SPAG4, KCNN3 and PARM1 mRNA were significantly higher in MM patients (all P < 0.05). Western blot showed that the 4 genes were all expressed in MM patients, and the protein expression level of Sel1L and KCNN3 were significantly different compared with healthy donors (all P < 0.01). CONCLUSION Sel1L, SPAG4, KCNN3 and PARM1 may be potential diagnostic markers and therapeutic targets for MM.

OBJECTIVE: To screen anti-tumor drugs that improve antigen processing and presentation in acute myeloid leukemia (AML) cells. METHODS: A TCR-like or TCR mimic antibody that can specifically recognize HLA-A*0201:WT1_126-134 ( RMFPNAPYL) complex (hereafter referred to as HLA-A2:WT1) was synthesized to evaluate the function of antigen processing and presentation machinery (APM) in AML cells. AML cell line THP1 was incubated with increasing concentrations of IFN-γ, hypomethylating agents (HMA), immunomodulatory drugs (IMiD), proteasome inhibitors (PI) and γ-secretase inhibitors (GSI), followed by measuring of HLA-ABC, HLA-A2 and HLA-A2:WT1 levels by flow cytometry at consecutive time points. RESULTS: The TCR-like antibody we generated only binds to HLA-A*0201⁺WT1⁺ cells, indicating the specificity of the antibody. HLA-A2:WT1 level of THP-1 cells detected with the TCR-like antibody was increased significantly after co-incubation with IFN-γ, showing that the HLA-A2:WT1 TCR like antibody could evaluate the function of APM. Among the anti-tumor agents screened in this study, GSI (LY-411575) and HMA (decitabine and azacitidine) could significantly increase the HLA-A2:WT1 level. The IMiD lenalidomide and pomalidomide could aslo upregulate the expression of HLA-A2:WT1 complex under certain concentrations of the drugs and incubation time. As proteasome inhibitors, carfilzomib could significantly decreased the expression of HLA-A2:WT1, while bortezomib had no significant effect on HLA-A2:WT1 expression. CONCLUSION HLA-A2:WT1 TCR-like antibody can effectively reflect the APM function. Some of the anti-tumor drugs can affect the APM function and immunogenicity of tumor cells.

Peptide-based radiopharmaceuticals targeting integrin α5β1 show promise for precise tumor diagnosis and treatment. However, current peptide-based radioligands that target α5β1 demonstrate inadequate in vivo performance owing to limited tumor retention. The use of PEGylation to enhance the tumor retention of radiopharmaceuticals by prolonging blood circulation time poses a risk of increased blood toxicity. Therefore, a PEGylation strategy that boosts tumor retention while minimizing blood circulation time is urgently needed. Here, we developed a PEGylation-enabled peptide multidisplay platform (PEGibody) for PR_b, an α5β1 targeting peptide. PEGibody generation involved PEGylation and self-assembly. [⁶⁴Cu]QM-2303 PEGibodies displayed spherical nanoparticles ranging from 100 to 200 nm in diameter. Compared with non-PEGylated radioligands, [⁶⁴Cu]QM-2303 demonstrated enhanced tumor retention time due to increased binding affinity and stability. Importantly, the biodistribution analysis confirmed rapid clearance of [⁶⁴Cu]QM-2303 from the bloodstream. Administration of a single dose of [¹⁷⁷Lu]QM-2303 led to robust antitumor efficacy. Furthermore, [⁶⁴Cu]/[¹⁷⁷Lu]QM-2303 exhibited low hematological and organ toxicity in both healthy and tumor-bearing mice. Therefore, this study presents a PEGibody-based radiotheranostic approach that enhances tumor retention time and provides long-lasting antitumor effects without prolonging blood circulation lifetime. The PEGibody-based radiopharmaceutical [⁶⁴Cu]/[¹⁷⁷Lu]QM-2303 shows great potential for positron emission tomography imaging-guided targeted radionuclide therapy for α5β1-overexpressing tumors.

Cemental tear is a rare and indetectable condition unless obvious clinical signs present with the involvement of surrounding periodontal and periapical tissues. Due to its clinical manifestations similar to common dental issues, such as vertical root fracture, primary endodontic diseases, and periodontal diseases, as well as the low awareness of cemental tear for clinicians, misdiagnosis often occurs. The critical principle for cemental tear treatment is to remove torn fragments, and overlooking fragments leads to futile therapy, which could deteriorate the conditions of the affected teeth. Therefore, accurate diagnosis and subsequent appropriate interventions are vital for managing cemental tear. Novel diagnostic tools, including cone-beam computed tomography (CBCT), microscopes, and enamel matrix derivatives, have improved early detection and management, enhancing tooth retention. The implementation of standardized diagnostic criteria and treatment protocols, combined with improved clinical awareness among dental professionals, serves to mitigate risks of diagnostic errors and suboptimal therapeutic interventions. This expert consensus reviewed the epidemiology, pathogenesis, potential predisposing factors, clinical manifestations, diagnosis, differential diagnosis, treatment, and prognosis of cemental tear, aiming to provide a clinical guideline and facilitate clinicians to have a better understanding of cemental tear.

Objective: To investigate the trend in mortality of injury in Jiaxing City, Zhejiang Province, from 2010 to 2022, so as to provide the evidence for developing injury prevention and intervention strategies. Methods: Data on injury mortality in Jiaxing City from 2010 to 2022 were obtained from the Jiaxing Chronic Disease Monitoring Information Management System. Crude mortality was calculated, and standardized mortality was computed using data of the Sixth National Population Census in 2010. Descriptive analysis of injury mortality and cause of injury death was conducted by gender and age. The average annual percent change (AAPC) was used to analyze the trend in mortality of injury from 2010 to 2022. Results: From 2010 to 2022, the crude injury mortality in Jiaxing City was 79.24/100 000, and the standardized mortality was 47.08/105. The crude injury mortality was higher in males than in females (80.51/100 000 vs. 78.01/100 000, P<0.05). The standardized injury mortality for the total population, males, and females showed significant declining trends (AAPC=-2.011%, -2.373% and -1.542%, all P<0.05). The crude injury mortality increased with age (P<0.05), peaking in the age group of ≥85 years (1 806.46/100 000). Decreasing trends were observed in the age groups of 0-<15 years, 15-<45 years, and 45-<65 years (AAPC=-7.794%, -4.698% and -4.521%, all P<0.05), while no significant trend was found in the age group of ≥65 years. The top five causes of injury death were falls (29.96/100 000), motor vehicle traffic accidents (17.81/100 000), drowning (6.50/100 000), suicide (5.40/100 000), and poisoning (0.69/100 000). Drowning was the leading cause of injury death in the age group of 0-<15 years, while falls were the primary cause in the age group of ≥65 years. Motor vehicle traffic accidents were the top cause of injury death in age groups of 15-<45 years and 45-<65 years. From 2010 to 2022, the standardized mortality of falls showed an upward trend (AAPC=1.094%, P<0.05), while the standardized mortality of motor vehicle traffic accidents, drowning, and suicide demonstrated downward trends (AAPC=-7.576%, -2.745% and -2.786%, all P<0.05). Conclusions The standardized injury mortality in Jiaxing City showed an overall downward trend from 2010 to 2022. Falls were the leading cause of injury death, and particular attention should be paid to the prevention and control of falls among the elderly aged ≥65 years.

Toxoplasma gondii is an obligatory intracellular parasite which infects a variety of warm-blooded animals and causes toxoplasmosis. Toxoplasmosis seriously endangers human health and animal husbandry production. As one of the effective gene editing tools, the clustered regularly interspaced short palindromic repeats (CRISPR)/CRISPR-associated proteins (Cas) system has been widely used for knockout of genes in T. gondii. This review summarizes the applications of the CRISPR/Cas9 technology in vaccines against single- and double-gene deletion strains of T. gondii, so as to provide insights into development of toxoplasmosis vaccines.

Objective To investigate the attributable risk(AR)of Acinetobacter baumannii(AB)infection in criti-cally ill patients.Methods A multicenter retrospective cohort study was conducted among adult patients in inten-sive care unit(ICU).Patients with AB isolated from sterile body fluid and confirmed with AB infection in each cen-ter were selected as the infected group.According to the matching criteria that patients should be from the same pe-riod,in the same ICU,as well as with similar APACHE Ⅱ score(±5 points)and primary diagnosis,patients who did not infect with AB were selected as the non-infected group in a 1:2 ratio.The AR was calculated.Results The in-hospital mortality of patients with AB infection in sterile body fluid was 33.3％,and that of non-infected group was 23.1％,with no statistically significant difference between the two groups(P=0.069).The AR was 10.2％(95％CI:-2.3％-22.8％).There is no statistically significant difference in mortality between non-infected pa-tients and infected patients from whose blood,cerebrospinal fluid and other specimen sources AB were isolated(P＞0.05).After infected with AB,critically ill patients with the major diagnosis of pulmonary infection had the high-est AR.There was no statistically significant difference in mortality between patients in the infected and non-infec-ted groups(P＞0.05),or between other diagnostic classifications.Conclusion The prognosis of AB infection in critically ill patients is highly overestimated,but active healthcare-associated infection control for AB in the ICU should still be carried out.
