Objective:This study aims to explore whether there are specific behavioral deficits of response inhibition and emotional processing in patients with checking obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD) and those with washing OCD.Methods:A cross-sectional study was conducted from January 2020 to December 2022, collecting clinical data from 75 OCD patients at the outpatient psychological consultation clinic of Xiangya Second Hospital and the clinical psychology department of Hunan Brain Hospital. The sample included 40 OCD patients with checking type (checking group, 24 males, 16 females, aged 14-34 years, mean age 22.1±5.0 years) and 35 OCD patients with washing type (washing group, 12 males, 23 females, aged 14-41 years, mean age 22.6±6.7 years). An age-matched healthy control group (control group) of 80 individuals (HCs, 37 males and 43 females, aged 14-25 years, mean age 20.8±1.9 years) was also recruited. All participants completed the Go/No-go task and Hariri task with behavioral data recorded. The Dimensional Yale-Brown Obsessive-Compulsive Scale was used to assess the severity of OCD symptoms. The Center for Epidemiologic Studies Depression Scale (CES-D) and State Anxiety Inventory (STAI) were used to assess the severity of depression and anxiety. A 3 (group: checking OCD, washing OCD and HC)×2 (task type: Go vs. No-go/Shape vs. Face) repeated-measures ANOVA was conducted to compare the behavioral performance across tasks.Results:Compared with HC group, both checking OCD group and washing OCD group had significantly higher scores in depression and anxiety ( F=85.43, 32.33,both P<0.05). When performing Go/No-go task, a significant group×task interaction effect was observed ( F3(2, 152)=3.23, P3=0.042, partialη32=0.04). In the checking OCD group, No-go accuracy was significantly lower than Go accuracy (accuracy=0.821 vs. 0.893, P<0.001); the checking OCD had significantly lower accuracy than HC in the No-go task (accuracy=0.821 vs. 0.876, P=0.005); there were no significant group differences between the washing OCD and HC in the No-go task ( P>0.05). When performing Hariri task, a significant group×task interaction effect was found ( F3(2, 152)=4.91, P3=0.009, partial η32=0.06). The washing OCD group showed significantly lower accuracy in matching emotional faces than the control group (0.879 vs. 0.936, P=0.001), whereas the checking OCD group showed no significant difference from the HC ( P>0.05); there were no significant group differences in shape matching task ( P>0.05). The accuracy of shape matching task was significantly higher than face matching task in the three groups (shape: checking OCD=0.936,washing OCD=0.929,HC=0.943; face:checking OCD=0.877,washing OCD=0.844,HC=0.917;all P>0.05). Conclusions:Checking OCD and washing OCD exhibit distinct behavioral impairment patterns in response inhibition and emotional processing. Checking-type OCD is primarily characterized by impaired response inhibition, whereas washing-type OCD is mainly associated with deficits in emotion processing.

Objective:To explore the clinical, genetic, and therapeutic prognostic characteristics of two pediatric cases of Lesch-Nyhan syndrome (LNS) in order to enhance understanding of this disease and investigate more effective treatment strategies.Methods:Clinical data were collected from two children clinically diagnosed with LNS who were treated at Anhui Provincial Children′s Hospital from April 2023 to January 2024. Data were collected retrospectively and included clinical manifestations (symptoms, signs, laboratory and imaging findings), treatment course, and follow-up results. Peripheral venous blood samples (2 mL each) were obtained from children 1 and his parents. Whole-exome sequencing (WES) was performed. Candidate variants were validated by Sanger sequencing to confirm the genetic etiology.Standard bioinformatic analysis of the raw WES data was conducted, including quality control, alignment, variant calling, and annotation. Candidate pathogenic variants were filtered using population frequency databases (e.g., gnomAD), disease databases (e.g., OMIM, ClinVar), and multiple in silico pathogenicity prediction tools (e.g., SIFT, PolyPhen-2, CADD). Phenotype matching was integrated using Human Phenotype Ontology (HPO) terms. Pathogenicity classification of variants was performed according to the American College of Medical Genetics and Genomics (ACMG) Standards and Guidelines for the Interpretation of Sequence Variants (2015). This study was approved by the Medical Ethics Committee of Anhui Children′s Hospital, Children′s Hospital of Fudan University (Approval No.: EYLL-2014-027).Results:Case 1, a 4-year-old boy presented with "developmental delay for over 3 years, accompanied by abnormal postures and involuntary lip-biting". Physical examination revealed limb dystonia, anxious expression, lower lip damage, and communication difficulties. Laboratory tests showed hyperuricemia and renal stones. Genetic testing identified a hemizygote variant in the HPRT1 gene, c. 135G>T (p.Arg45Ser), inherited from an asymptomatic carrier mother, confirming the diagnosis of LNS. This variant was absent from population databases (gnomAD, 1000 Genomes, dbSNP). Protein function prediction tools consistently indicated pathogenic or likely pathogenic variant (SIFT, PolyPhen-2, CADD, and REVEL scores all reached pathogenic thresholds). Protein structural modeling revealed that the mutation disrupts the hydrogen-bonding network, compromising tetramer stability. ACMG classification designated it as likely pathogenic (PM1 + PM2_Supporting + PM5 + PP3). The patient was treated with benhaxol hydrochloride, baclofen, and clonazepam to improve neurological symptoms, and also received treatment with febuxostat in the nephrology department to manage purine metabolism. After one year of follow-up, the patient′s abnormal posture showed slight improvement, self-injurious behavior persisted but was managed with protective gloves, blood uric acid levels normalized, and renal stones decreased. Case 2, a 13-year-old boy was hospitalized in the nephrology department due to a urinary tract infection. Following successful infection treatment, his limb dystonia worsened, leading to his transfer to the neurology ward. The patient had a history of delayed motor and language development, abnormal postures, and lip-biting self-injurious behavior, with elevated blood uric acid levels, leading to an LNS diagnosis. The parents declined genetic testing due to financial constraints. Following discharge, the patient did not adhere to the prescribed medication regimen or attend scheduled outpatient visits. The patient had died by the time of the 4-month follow-up contact. Conclusion:HPRT1 gene variants are the genetic cause of LNS in children, and the HPRT1 gene is the only known pathogenic gene for LNS. Early genetic diagnosis, strict adherence to multidisciplinary comprehensive treatment, and intensive intervention for self-injurious behaviors are crucial for improving the quality of life and prolonging survival in children with LNS.

Objective:To investigate the effect of semaglutide on the metabolomics of obese patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) complicated by metabolic-associated fatty liver disease (MAFLD).Methods:A prospective non-randomized controlled study was conducted. Obese patients with T2DM complicated by MAFLD who attended the Department of Endocrinology of Shijiazhuang People′s Hospital from October 2022 to June 2023 were selected as the semaglutide group, and healthy individuals from the physical examination center were selected as the control group. Clinical data of both groups were collected. The semaglutide group was subcutaneously injected with semaglutide following a basic hypoglycemic regimen (starting dose of 0.25 mg once a week, which was changed to 0.5 mg once a week after 1 week for 12 weeks). Liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry was used for qualitative and quantitative analyses of plasma metabolites, and multivariate analysis methods were used to analyze the metabolomics data.Results:In total, 69 patients in the semaglutide group completed the treatment, with 49 males (71%) and a median age of 46 (36, 54) years, and the healthy control group consisted of 100 individuals, with 38 males (38%) and a median age of 40 (35, 45) years. The body mass index and levels of fasting blood glucose, alanine aminotransferase, and interleukin-6 (IL-6) in the semaglutide group before treatment were significantly higher than those in the control group (all P<0.001). The body mass index [23.65 (22.33, 24.45) vs. 28.72 (27.50, 32.07) kg/m 2], liver stiffness measurement [1.61 (0.91, 2.00) vs. 5.78 (5.51, 6.10) kPa], and homeostasis model assessment of insulin resistance index [5.10 (2.90, 7.95) vs. 9.00 (6.25, 11.80)] in the semaglutide group were significantly lower after treatment than before treatment (all P<0.001), and the blood glucose, blood lipid, liver function indicator, and IL-6 levels all significantly decreased after treatment. Metabolomics analysis revealed that there were 219 differential metabolites (131 up-regulated and 88 down-regulated) between the semaglutide group ( n=27) before treatment and the control group ( n=12), with glycerophospholipids and free fatty acids being significantly up-regulated. The semaglutide group showed 203 differential metabolites (121 up-regulated and 82 down-regulated) after treatment compared with before, with significant down-regulation of long-chain fatty acids and significant up-regulation of metabolites including carnitines, branched-chain amino acids, and taurine. Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes pathway analysis revealed that the differential metabolites identified before and after semaglutide treatment were involved in several signaling pathways, such as biosynthesis of unsaturated fatty acids, linoleic acid metabolism, aldosterone synthesis and secretion, and the mTOR signaling pathway, etc. Conclusion:Semaglutide alters the serum metabolite levels in obese patients with T2DM complicated by MAFLD.

The anti-inflammatory phytochemical investigation of the leaves of Illicium dunnianum (I. dunnianum) resulted in the isolation of five pairs of new lignans (1-5), and 7 known analogs (6-12). The separation of enantiomer mixtures 1-5 to 1a/1b-5a/5b was achieved using a chiral column with acetonitrile-water mixtures as eluents. The planar structures of 1-2 were previously undescribed, and the chiral separation and absolute configurations of 3-5 were reported for the first time. Their structures were determined through comprehensive spectroscopic data analysis [nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR), high-resolution electrospray ionization mass (HR-ESI-MS), infrared (IR), and ultraviolet (UV)] and quantum chemistry calculations (ECD). The new isolates were evaluated by measuring their inhibitory effect on NO in lipopolysaccharide (LPS)-stimulated BV-2 cells. Compounds 1a, 3a, 3b, and 5a demonstrated partial inhibition of NO production in a concentration-dependent manner. Western blot and real-time polymerase chain reaction (PCR) assays revealed that 1a down-regulated the messenger ribonucleic acid (mRNA) levels of tumor necrosis factor α (TNF-α), interleukin-6 (IL-6), COX-2, and iNOS and the protein expressions of COX-2 and iNOS. This research provides guidance and evidence for the further development and utilization of I. dunnianum.
