Objective To explore the visiting behavior and health management strategy of patients with cardiovascular disease (CVD) and the industry management strategies under the family doctor contract service model. Methods A total of 351 patients with CVD from January 2022 to January 2025 were included in the case investigation by random sampling. Taking the number of visits in community health service institutions/total number of visits ≥90% as high compliance, the influencing factors of the visiting behavior of CVD patients were analyzed. Results Finally, 344 valid questionnaires were collected, with an effective recovery rate of 98.01%. The study subjects were categorized into high compliance group (271 cases) and low compliance group (73 cases). The scores of policy cognition understanding, institutional trust and medical service understanding in the high compliance group were higher compared with those in the low compliance group (P<0.05). There was no significant difference in the understanding of medical expenses between the two groups (P>0.05). Multivariate logistic regression model analysis revealed that CVD duration [OR (95% CI): 1.72 (1.21-2.44)], policy cognition understanding [OR (95% CI): 2.16 (1.20-3.89)] and institutional trust [OR (95% CI): 1.88 (1.08-3.25)] were independently associated with medical treatment behavior in CVD patients (P<0.05). Conclusion Enhancing the policy cognition understanding and institutional trust of CVD patients on family doctor contract service can promote patients to seek medical treatment and promote the high-quality development of family doctor contract service.

Alzheimer’s disease (AD) is a chronic, progressive, and irreversible neurodegenerative disorder that typically begins with a subtle onset and progresses slowly. Pathologically, it is characterized by two hallmark features: the extracellular accumulation of amyloid β-protein (Aβ), forming senile plaques, and the intracellular hyperphosphorylation of tau protein, resulting in neurofibrillary tangles (NFTs). These pathological changes are accompanied by substantial neuronal and synaptic loss, particularly in critical brain regions such as the cerebral cortex and hippocampus. Clinically, AD presents as a gradual decline in memory, language abilities, and spatial orientation, significantly impairing the quality of life of affected individuals. With the aging population steadily increasing in China, the incidence of AD is rising, making it a major public health concern that requires urgent attention. The growing societal and economic burden of AD underscores the pressing need to identify effective diagnostic biomarkers and develop novel therapeutic strategies. Among the various molecular signaling pathways involved in neurological disorders, the Notch signaling pathway is especially noteworthy due to its evolutionary conservation and regulatory roles in cell proliferation, differentiation, development, and apoptosis. In the central nervous system, Notch signaling is essential for neurodevelopment and synaptic plasticity and has been implicated in several neurodegenerative processes. Although some studies suggest that Notch signaling may influence AD-related pathology, its precise role in AD remains poorly understood. In particular, the interaction between Notch signaling and non-coding RNAs (ncRNAs)—key regulators of gene expression—has received limited attention. NcRNAs, including long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs) and microRNAs (miRNAs), are known to exert extensive regulatory functions at both transcriptional and post-transcriptional levels. Dysregulation of these molecules has been widely associated with various diseases, including cancers, cardiovascular conditions, and neurodegenerative disorders. Notably, interactions between ncRNAs and major signaling pathways such as Notch can produce widespread biological effects. While such interactions have been increasingly reported in several disease models, comprehensive studies investigating the regulatory relationship between Notch signaling and ncRNAs in the context of AD remain scarce. Given the capacity of ncRNAs to modulate signaling cascades and form complex regulatory networks, a deeper understanding of their crosstalk with the Notch pathway could provide novel insights into AD pathogenesis and reveal potential targets for diagnosis and treatment. In this study, we investigated the regulatory landscape involving the Notch signaling pathway and associated ncRNAs in AD using bioinformatics approaches. By integrating data from multiple public databases, we systematically identified significantly dysregulated Notch pathway-related genes and their interacting ncRNAs in AD. Based on this analysis, we constructed a lncRNA-miRNA-mRNA regulatory network to elucidate the potential mechanisms linking Notch signaling to ncRNA-mediated gene regulation in AD pathogenesis. Furthermore, we explored the internal relationships and molecular mechanisms within this network and assessed the feasibility and clinical relevance of these molecules as early diagnostic biomarkers and potential therapeutic targets for AD. This study aims to deepen our understanding of the molecular basis of AD and offer novel strategies for its diagnosis and treatment.

Objective To investigate the regulatory effect and molecular mechanism of circ_0044556 on the malignant biological behavior of triple negative breast cancer(TNBC)cells by targeting the miR-338-3p/bromodomain-containing protein 4(BRD4)axis.Methods The TargetScan online website was used to predict the binding sites of circ_0044556 with miR-338-3p and miR-338-3p with BRD4.Dual-luciferase reporter gene assays were performed to determine the relationship among circ_0044556,miR-338-3p,and BRD4 in MDA-MB-231 cells.Quantitative real-time PCR(qRT-PCR)and Western blotting were employed to detect the expression of circ_0044556,miR-338-3p,and BRD4 protein in human TNBC cell line MDA-MB-231 and human normal breast epithelial cells MCF-10A.MDA-MB-231 cells were divided into NC group,si-NC group(transfected with si-NC),si-circ_0044556 group(transfected with si-circ_0044556),si-circ_0044556+inhibitor NC group(transfected with si-circ_0044556 and inhibitor NC),and si-circ_0044556+miR-338-3p inhibitor group(transfected with si-circ_0044556 andmiR-338-3p inhibitor).qRT-PCR was applied to detect the expression of circ_0044556 and miR-338-3p;Western blotting was used to detect the expression of BRD4,E-cadherin,N-cadherin and Vimentin;the CCK-8 assay was applied to detect cell proliferation;flow cytometry was applied to detect cell apoptosis;and Transwell assays were used to detect cell invasion and migration.Thirty nude mice were randomly divided into NC group(tail vein injection of normal saline),si-NC group(tail vein injection of LV-NC),si-circ_0044556 group(tail vein injection of LV-circ_0044556),si-circ_0044556+inhibitor NC group(tail vein injection of LV-circ_0044556 and antiagomir NC),and si-circ_0044556+miR-338-3p inhibitor group(tail vein injection of LV-circ_0044556 and antiagomir miR-338-3p),with 6 mice per group.A xenograft tumor model was constructed by subcutaneous injection of MDA-MB-231 cells into nude mice,and tumor volume and weight were measured.Results TargetScan prediction results showed that the downstream miRNA of circ_0044556 was miR-338-3p,and the downstream target gene of miR-338-3p might be BRD4.Compared with transfecting mimic NC,transfection with miR-338-3p mimic significantly reduced the luciferase activities of WT-circ_0044556(0.34±0.03 vs.1.00±0.15,P<0.05)and WT-BRD4(0.41±0.05 vs.1.05±0.13,P<0.05)in MDA-MB-231 cells.Compared with MCF-10A cells,the expression levels of circ_0044556 and BRD4 protein in MDA-MB-231 cells were significantly increased,while the expression level of miR-338-3p was significantly decreased(P<0.05).Compared with NC group and si-NC group,the expression levels of circ_0044556,the protein expression levels of BRD4,N-cadherin,and Vimentin,and the OD450 value in MDA-MB-231 cells of si-circ_0044556 group and si-circ_0044556+inhibitor NC group were significantly decreased(P<0.05),the number of migrated and invaded cells was significantly reduced(P<0.05),and the expression level of miR-338-3p,the protein expression level of E-cadherin,and the cell apoptosis rate in MDA-MB-231 cells were significantly increased(P<0.05);downregulation of miR-338-3p rescued the inhibitory effect of circ_0044556 knockdown on invasion,migration,and proliferation of MDA-MB-231 cells.Compared with NC group and si-NC group,the tumor volume and weight in si-circ_0044556 group and si-circ_0044556+inhibitor NC group were significantly decreased(P<0.05);compared with si-circ_0044556 group and si-circ_0044556+inhibitor NC group,the tumor volume and weight in si-circ_0044556+miR-338-3p inhibitor group were significantly increased(P<0.05).Conclusion circ_0044556 may promote the malignant biological behaviors of TNBC cells through the miR-338-3p/BRD4 axis.

Objective To investigate the effect of different strand lengths of 125I seeds with the same activity on the dose of different reference points around the seeds.Methods The scanned images were transferred to the three-dimensional treatment planning system(3D-TPS)according to DICOM format.The target volume was delineated at 5 mm and 10 mm above and below the center of the phantom,and a 0.8 mCi seeds strand was simulated.The 1-20 seeds were arranged with an equal spacing of 5 mm(5 mm-100 mm).The 5 mm points above and below the center of the seeds strand were defined as point A and point A',and the 10 mm points above and below the center were defined as point B and point B'.5 mm above and below the edge of the seeds strand on the left side were defined as AL points and AL'points,and 5 mm above and below the edge of the seeds strand on the right side were defined as AR points and AR'points.Similarly,points 10 mm above the above mentioned positions were defined as BL points,BL'points,BR points,BR'points.The average dose symmetry points were measured at AL,AL',AR,and 5 mm,10 mm,15 mm and 20 mm inside AR' of the 45 mm-100 mm seeds strand.The dose at the center was compared with the dose at the end points.The dose at the center point A was compared with the average dose at the symmetry points of 5 mm,10 mm,15 mm and 20 mm inside of the end points AL,AL',AR and AR',and the dose at each point was curve fitting.The correlation between each point and seeds strands of different lengths was analyzed.Results There was a positive correlation between the dose and the length of each point.There was no statistically significant difference between the center point and the end point.There was a statistically significant difference in dosage at points 5 mm and 10 mm inside from point A,while there was no statistically significant difference in dosage at points 15 mm and 20 mm inside from point A.The dose of A,A',B and B' point increased steadily with the increase of seed chain length,and the fitting curves were obtained respectively:y=e(-0.620/x+5.28)(R2=0.992),y=e(-0.640/x+5.34)(R2=0.987),y=e(-0.82/x+4.80)(R2=0.984),y=e(-0.82/x+4.83)(R2=0.9g1).Conclusion The doses at points A,A',B,and B'are positively correlated with seeds strand length and have a high degree of stability.Point A can be used as a reference point for the target area dose of the seeds strand,and point B can be used as a reference point for the dose to critical organs.The dose at other positions is more variable and thus has a certain degree of uncertainty as a reference point for the seeds strand dose.

Objective To investigate the relationship between the absorbed dose and implantation duration at the target area and at the critical organ dose reference points in the application of radioactive 125I seed strands for the treatment of intraluminal tumors.Methods A self-developed 125I seed strand arc template with a 30-degree angle was used to place 10 seeds(each with activity of 1.0mCi)into the template.CT-based DICOM images were transferred to a treatment planning system(TPS)for dose calculation.Absorbed doses at multiple time points(from day 5 to day 90 with a 5-day interval)were measured at following four specific locations:point A'(5 mm inside the arc center),point A(5 mm outside the arc center),point B(10 mm outside the arc center),and point B'(10 mm inside the arc center).The TPS was first used to calculate the expected absorbed doses,followed by actual absorbed dose measurements over the 90-day period.The expected absorbed doses were calculated,and then the actual absorbed doses were calculated.The time-dose relationship of the above points was analyzed,and the curves and equations were obtained.Results The expected absorbed doses at points A',A,B,and B'were 221.36,196.39,115.78,and 136.32 Gy,respectively.The time(x)-dose(y)relationships of all the above points followed a quadratic function relationship in the form of y=c+bx-ax2.Within the time range of 5-90 days,the actual absorbed dose increased with the prolongation of time,and the increase speed showed a pattern of first fast and then slow.The increase in speed was fast within 20 days,than became stable between 20-75 days,and after 75 days the increase in speed became to slow down.Conclusion When using 125I seed strands to treat intraluminal tumors,the actual absorbed dose of the tumor needs to be accurately calculated based on the implantation duration.The actual absorbed dose initially accumulates rapidly and decreases significantly after 75 days.It is recommended to replace the 125I seed strand with a new one after implanting it for approximately 75 days.

Objective To investigate the impact of different 125I seeds strand radian on the dose of different reference points around the seeds.Methods CT scan of self-developed radioactive particle radiation dose measurement phantom was performed,the scanned images were transferred to the three-dimensional treatment planning system(TPS).The target area at the middle level of the model was drawn.The target volume was delineated at 5 mm and 10 mm above and below the center of the phantom.125I seeds strand plans were designed with different radians,with a total length of 8 cm,seed spacing of 0 cm,activity of 0.8 mCi,and a total of 16 particles,with radians ranging from 30°to 170°,increasing by 10° increment.The point 5 mm vertically away from the center of the seeds strand towards the center was named A',and the point away from the center was named A.The point 10 mm vertically away from the center of the seeds strand towards the center was named B',and the point away from the center was named B.The doses at different radians were recorded,and the actual absorbed dose at 1-2 months after operation was calculated based on the particle activity decay formula.Results The doses at points A'and A were(218.3±23.1)and(201.5±16.0)Gy respectively(P=0.001).The actual absorbed doses at 1 month after operation were(65.5±6.9)and(60.5±4.8)Gy respectively(P=0.001),and the actual absorbed doses at 2 months after operation were(109.2±11.5)Gy and(100±7.9)Gy respectively(P=0.001).The doses at points B'and B were(95.9±11.0)Gy and(81.7±4.9)Gy respectively(P＜0.001),and the actual absorbed doses at 1 month after operation were(28.8±3.3)Gy and(24.5±1.5)Gy respectively(P＜0.001).The actual absorbed doses at 2 month after operation were(48.0±5.5)Gy and(41.0±2.4)Gy respectively(P＜0.001).The doses at points A'and A gradually decreased with the increase of the radians,reaching the minimum value at 100 degrees,and then increased gradually,showing a cubic function change.The actual absorbed dose showed the same trend.The doses at points B'and B increased gradually with the increase of the radians,showing a cubic function change.Conclusion At different radians,the point doses and absorbed doses on the centrifugal side of the seeds strand are both less than those on the centripetal side.There is a cubic function relationship between the dose at the reference points and the radian of the seeds strand.
