ObjectiveTo investigate the correlation between neutrophil-to-lymphocyte ratio （NLR）， platelet-to-lymphocyte ratio （PLR）， systemic immune-inflammation index （SII） and the severity of intrauterine adhesions （IUA）. MethodsThe retrospective study included 380 patients who underwent transcervical resection of adhesions （TCRA） from December 2019 to March 2025. Based on the American Fertility Society （AFS） classification， patients were divided into mild （n=61）， moderate （n=225）， and severe （n=94） groups. NLR， PLR， and SII were calculated from preoperative blood tests. Statistical analyses included Kruskal-Wallis test and ordinal Logistic regression. ResultsNLR， PLR， and SII were significantly higher in the severe IUA group compared to the mild group （P<0.05）， with SII showing the strongest predictive ability （OR=1.004， P=0.001）. The number of intrauterine procedures was an independent risk factor （OR=1.27/level， P=0.016）. The predictive model ［Logit（P）=-0.676+0.241×operation times+0.004×SII］ effectively identified severe IUA cases. ConclusionInflammatory markers （particularly SII） are correlated with IUA severity and may serve as non-invasive tools for clinical assessment.

AIM: To analyze the clinical outcomes of cyclosporine combined with lacrimal plug in the treatment of dry eye in patients with primary Sjögren's syndrome.METHODS: The clinical data of 60 patients(120 eyes)who were admitted to the ophthalmology department and rheumatology and immunology department of Baoding No.1 Central Hospital and were diagonosed with siogren's syndrome dry eye after multidisciplinary consultation from June 2022 to September 2023 were retrospectively analyzed. All the patients received regular treatment of primary Sjögren's syndrome, and they were divided into three groups according to treatment methods: A, B and C, with 20 cases(40 eyes)in each group. The group A received 0.3% sodium hyaluronate eyedrops, the group B received 0.3% sodium hyaluronate eyedrops plus 0.05% cyclosporine eyedrops, and the group C received 0.3% sodium hyaluronate eyedrops plus 0.05% cyclosporine eyedrops combined with binocular lacrimal plugs. The ocular surface disease index(OSDI)score, conjunctival hyperemia score, tear film breakup time(BUT), tear meniscus height(TMH), corneal fluorescein staining(FL)score and tear secretion of the three groups of patients were compared before and at 4, 8 and 12 wk after treatment. The contents of inflammatory factors such as interleukin-6(IL-6), tumor necrosis factor-α(TNF-α)and interleukin-1β(IL-1β)in tears were detected before and at 12 wk after treatment.RESULTS: At 4, 8 and 12 wk after treatment, the scores of OSDI, conjunctival hyperemia score and FL in the three groups of patients were lower than those before treatment, and the BUT, TMH and tear secretion were higher than those before treatment(all P<0.001). The OSDI score of the group C was lower than that of the group A and B, and the group B was lower than the group A(all P<0.001). The BUT, TMH and tear secretion of the group C were higher than those of the group A and B, with the group B higher than the group A(all P<0.001). At 12 wk after treatment, the levels of IL-6, TNF-α and IL-1β in the tears of the three groups of patients were lower than those before treatment, with the group C lower than the group A and B, and the group B lower than the group A(all P<0.001). There was no statistical significant difference in the incidence of adverse reactions among the three groups of patients(P>0.05).CONCLUSION: The combined use of cyclosporine and lacrimal plug is safe and effective in improving the clinical symptoms of patients with moderate and severe dry eye, promoting the function of tear film and cornea, increasing tears secretion, and reducing the level of tear inflammatory factors.

Objective To establish a method for simultaneous determination of four high-molecular-weight thiol derivatives (TDs) in workplace air by gas chromatography. Methods The four kinds of vapor-phase macromolecular TDs (1-pentanethiol, 1-hexanethiol, 1-benzyl mercaptan, and n-octanethiol) in the workplace air were collected using the GDH-1 air sampling tubes, desorbed with anhydrous ethanol, separated on a DB-FFAP capillary column, and determined by flame ionization detector. Results The quantitation range of the four TDs was 0.30-207.37 mg/L, with the correlation coefficients greater than 0.999 00. The minimum detection mass concentrations and minimum quantitation mass concentrations were 0.18-0.32 and 0.60-1.05 mg/m³, respectively (both calculated based on the 1.5 L sample and 3.0 mL desorption solvent). The mean desorption efficiencies ranged from 87.07% to 103.59%. The within-run and between-run relative standard deviations were 1.92%-8.22% and 1.89%-8.45%, respectively. The samples can be stored at room temperature or 4 ℃ for three days and up to 7 days at -18 ℃. Conclusion This method is suitable for the simultaneous determination of four vapor-phase TDs in workplace air.

AIM: To evaluate the efficacy of 0.05% cyclosporine eye drops in promoting ocular surface recovery following pterygium excision combined with autologous corneal limbal stem cell transplantation.METHODS:This study is a prospective randomized controlled trial, selecting 104 cases(104 eyes)of primary pterygium with monocular onset admitted to Baoding First Central Hospital from September 2023 to September 2024 as the initial sample. The patients were divided into an experimental group and a control group using a random number table method, with 52 eyes in each group. Both groups underwent pterygium excision and autologous corneal limbal stem cell transplantation performed by the same surgeon. The control group received tobramycin dexamethasone eye drops combined with 0.3% sodium hyaluronate eye drops, while the experimental group was additionally treated with 0.05% cyclosporine eye drops. The corneal epithelial repair status, ocular surface function [corneal fluorescein staining(FL)score, Schirmer I test(SIt), break-up time of tear film(BUT)] at preoperative and postoperative time points(1 and 3 mo), and dry eye symptoms [ocular surface disease index(OSDI), standard patient evaluation of eye dryness(SPEED)scores]. Additionally, the recurrence rate and postoperative complications were recorded.RESULTS: During the follow-up period, there was 1 case of loss to follow-up in both the experimental group and the control group, with lost to follow-up rate of 1.9%. Finally, 51 cases in each group completed all followed-up. No statistically significant difference was observed in preoperative general characteristics of patients between the two groups(P>0.05), and there was no statistically significant difference in corneal epithelial repair time or suture removal time(all P>0.05). At 1 mo postoperatively, the SIt and BUT decreased in both groups compared to preoperative levels, with the experimental group showing higher values than the control group(all P<0.05). FL scores increased compared to preoperative levels but were lower in the experimental group(all P<0.05). By 3 mo, the SIt, BUT and FL score of the control group were not statistically different from preoperative levels(all P>0.05), whereas the experimental group showed increased SIt and BUT, which were higher than the control group, and reduced FL scores, and decreased FL scores, which was lower than the control group(all P<0.05). At 3 mo postoperatively, both groups showed increased SIt and BUT compared to 1-month values, with the experimental group outperforming the control group(all P<0.05). FL scores decreased in both groups compared to 1-month values, with the experimental group maintaining lower scores(P<0.05). At 1 mo postoperatively, OSDI and SPEED scores were higher than preoperative levels, with the experimental group higher than the control group(all P<0.05); at 3 mo postoperatively, the scores returned to preoperative level(all P>0.05), and the OSDI and SPEED scores of the control group increased and higher than those of the experiment group(all P<0.05); at 3 mo postoperatively, the OSDI and SPEED scores decreased when compared with 1-month preoperative level, and the experiment group was lower than the control group(all P<0.05). There was no difference in the total incidence of postoperative complications between the two groups(P>0.05). According to the statistics of 6 mo follow-up after operation, there was no recurrence in the experimental group, and the recurrence rate was 11.8% in the control group(P<0.05).CONCLUSION: Adjunctive use of 0.05% cyclosporine eye drops after pterygium excision with limbal stem cell transplantation enhances ocular surface recovery, reduces dry eye symptoms, and lowers recurrence rates without compromising corneal epithelial healing or safety.

WD repeat domain 1(WDR1)is a highly conserved cytoskeleton-associated protein that plays a crucial role in physiological processes such as actin cytoskeleton remodeling,dynamic regulation of intercellular junctions,cell division,and migration.WDR1 exhibits abnormal high ex-pression in various malignant tumors,including breast cancer,ovarian cancer,and thyroid cancer,and has been demonstrated to significantly promote the invasive and migratory capabilities of tumor cells,suggesting its important role in the malignant progression of tumors.Moreover,the expression level of WDR1 is closely related to the clinical prognosis of patients with multiple malignant tumors.Especially in patients with esophageal cancer and osteosarcoma,its high expression often indicates a poor overall survival rate.WDR1 can promote tumor initiation and progression by regulating the Wnt/β-Catenin signaling pathway and the Hippo-YAP signaling pathway.Meanwhile,its expression is also subject to multi-level regulation by transcription activation factors and long non-coding RNAs(lncR-NAs),thereby influencing the proliferation,migration,and other biological behaviors of tumor cells.Additionally,WDR1 can further drive the invasive growth and metastatic potential of tumors by regu-lating the epithelial-mesenchymal transition(EMT)process.This article aimed to systematically re-view the research progress in recent years regarding the biological functions and molecular mechanisms of WDR1 in tumor initiation and development,with a view to providing new theoretical foundations and research directions for the early diagnosis,prognosis assessment,and individualized treatment of clinical tumors.

Objective:To investigate the impact of early blood glucose fluctuations after acute multiple injuries on post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD).Methods:This study was a case-control study. From March 2022 to March 2023, patients with acute multiple injuries who were admitted to the ICU of the Affiliated Hospital of Xuzhou Medical University were selected. According to whether complicated with traumatic brain injury (TBI), the patients were divided into TBI group and non-TBI group. Early post-traumatic blood glucose fluctuations were observed, including stress-induced hyperglycemia (SIH), initial blood glucose value on admission, blood glucose extreme, short-term glycemic variability (GV) and other related indicators. The 72-hour glucose coefficient of variation (Glu-CV) was used to reflect short-term GV. After 1 month, the PTSD checklist for DSM-5 (PCL-5) was used to assess the patient's symptoms of PTSD. The patients were divided into PTSD group and non-PTSD group according to PCL-5 score ≥38. The differences in short-term glucose fluctuations in each groups were compared; the risk factors of PTSD were analyzed by logistic regression; the receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve was plotted to evaluate the predictive value of related indicators on the incidence of PTSD.Results:159 patients with acute multiple injuries were selected and defined as the TBI group ( n=94) and non-TBI group ( n=65). The incidence of PTSD, PCL-5 scale scores, the incidence of SIH and 72 h Glu-CV in the TBI group were significantly higher than the non-TBI group (all P<0.05). The incidence of SIH and 72 h Glu-CV in the PTSD group were significantly higher than the non-PTSD group (both P<0.05). Multivariate logistic regression analysis showed that 72 h Glu-CV ( OR=1.333, 95% CI: 1.028-1.727, P=0.030) was the independent risk factor for PTSD after acute multiple injuries, and the area under the ROC curve was 0.861 (95% CI: 0.789-0.933, P<0.001), the sensitivity was 62.9% and the specificity was 93.5%. Conclusion:Patients with acute multiple injuries with TBI are more likely to have early glucose fluctuations and develop PTSD, and increased short-term glucose variability is the independent risk factor for PTSD after acute multiple injuries.

Objective: To evaluate the effect of Tai Chi and Qigong on patients with lumbar disc herniation (LDH). Methods: Relevant data were retrieved from nine English and Chinese databases, including Cochrane Library, PubMed, and Wanfang Data, etc. from inception to June 2024. All published randomized controlled trials assessing the effect of Tai Chi and Qigong on visual analog scale (VAS), Japanese Orthopedic Association (JOA) score, and other health indicators in participants with LDH compared to usual medical care or other treatments were included. Grey literature, trials involving the pushing of hands (Tui Shou) or Tai Chi with weapons, and trials with co-interventions (Tai Chi/Qigong plus another treatment) were excluded. Methodological quality was analyzed using the Cochrane risk of bias tool, and evidence quality was assessed using the Grading of Recommendations, Assessment, Development, and Evaluations (GRADE) tool. Results: Fourteen trials (954 patients) were included in this study. Tai Chi and Qigong were associated with lower VAS pain scores (standardized mean difference −0.55, 95% confidence interval [CI] −0.95 to −0.15, P = .01), higher JOA scores (mean difference [MD] 4.40, 95% CI 2.62 to 6.18, P < .001) and straight leg raise test results (MD 9.40°, 95% CI 7.64 to 11.15, P < .001) in patients with LDH. Furthermore, compared with usual care, Tai Chi and Qigong showed enhanced effects on pain and JOA scores. When compared to other exercises or massage, the effect on pain scores was similar but that on JOA scores was significant. Conclusions Tai Chi and Qigong may have favorable effects on VAS pain and JOA scores compared with usual care, and on JOA scores compared with other exercises or massage in patients with LDH. Given the overall poor quality of the evidence, the results of current study should be interpreted cautiously.

Objective To analyze differential metabolites (DMs) in the urine of workers with occupational nickel exposure using non-targeted metabolomics, and to screen differential metabolic pathways. Methods A total of 30 nickel exposed workers were selected as the exposure group, and 30 administrative staff from the same factory were selected as the control group using the judgment sampling method. Urine samples of the individuals from the two groups were collected. The ultra-high performance liquid chromatography with quadrupole time-of-flight mass spectrometry and non-targeted metabolomics were used to detect and identify metabolites. The differential metabolic profiles were compared between workers of the two groups, and key differential metabolic pathways and potential biomarkers were screened. The association of DMs and urinary nickel level were evaluated by Spearman correlation coefficients. The sensitivity and specificity of biomarkers were assessed by receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve analysis. Results A total of 418 metabolites were identified in the urine of worker in the exposure and control groups. The result of principal component analysis and orthogonal partial least squares analysis showed that there were 128 DMs in the urine of workers in the exposure group compared with the control group. These DMs were mainly enriched in glutathione metabolism, carnitine synthesis, and amino acid and nucleotide metabolism pathways, including glycine and serine metabolism. The result of correlation analysis and ROC curve analysis revealed that 4-methylcatechol, 4-vinylphenol sulfate, 2-hydroxyphenylacetone sulfate, 2-dodecylbenzenesulfonic acid, and decylbenzenesulfonic acid could be the potential biomarkers for nickel exposure (all area under the ROC curve >0.800). Conclusion There were significant differences in the urinary metabolic profiles of workers with occupational nickel exposure. The five DMs including 4-methylcatechol, 4-vinylphenol sulfate, 2-hydroxyphenylacetone sulfate, 2-dodecylbenzenesulfonic acid, and decylbenzenesulfonic acid. These DMs could be potential biomarkers of occupational nickel exposure.

Biotoxins, which include bacterial, fungal, marine, plant, and animal toxins, are widespread in living and occupational environments, posing potential threats to human health. Rapid detection of biotoxins in blood is crucial for preventing health hazards and enabling timely disease diagnosis and treatment. Biosensors and immunoassay technologies have critical advantages in the rapid detection of biotoxins in blood. Common biosensors, such as surface plasmon resonance biosensors and fluorescent biosensors, enhance sensitivity and reduce detection limits through signal amplification. Common immunoassay methods, such as colloidal gold immunochromatography, fluorescence immunochromatography, and chemiluminescence immunoassay, improve detection efficacy and sensitivity through specific antibody-antigen binding and nanotechnology. However, current rapid detection technologies of bitoxins in blood face challenges such as matrix interference and insufficient specificity, and they fall short in high-throughput detection of multiple toxins simultaneously. Future developments should focus on improving sample pretreatment, innovating signal amplification methods, enhancing specificity on recognition of elements, and designing portable detection devices and high-throughput platforms for simultaneous toxin analysis. These advancements aim to improve the sensitivity and reliability of detection methods, providing more accurate and convenient solutions for biotoxin detection in blood.
