Objective:To construct logistic regression, decision tree, and neural network models to predict pressure injury in neurocritically ill patients using machine learning algorithms, and compare the predictive performance of the three models.Methods:The clinical data of 341 neurocritically ill patients who received treatment in the Department of Neurosurgery at The First Affiliated Hospital of Wenzhou Medical University from May 2020 to February 2023 were collected retrospectively. The patients were randomly divided into a training set and a testing set in a 7:3 ratio. Univariate and multivariate analyses were conducted based on the clinical data from the training set. According to the results of the multivariate analysis, logistic regression, decision tree, and neural network models were constructed. The predictive performance of the three models was validated and compared using receiver operating characteristic curve analysis.Results:Among the 341 patients, 35 developed pressure injury (a total of 40 occurrences), with an incidence rate of 10.26%. Multivariate analysis indicated that incontinence ( OR = 47.32, 95% CI: 1.360-1 647.700), decreased albumin levels ( OR = 0.56, 95% CI: 0.360-0.870), increased sensory ability ( OR = 0.00, 95% CI: 0.000-0.190), and increased mobility ( OR = 0.03, 95% CI: 0.000-0.390) were independent risk factors for pressure injury in neurocritically ill patients (all P < 0.05). Based on these independent risk factors, logistic regression, decision tree, and neural network models were constructed. Receiver operating characteristic curve analysis revealed that the area under the curve for the three models was 0.987 (95% CI: 0.941-0.999), 0.945 (95% CI: 0.881-0.980), and 0.908 (95% CI: 0.834-0.956), respectively. These results suggest that all three models exhibited high predictive performance for pressure injury in neurocritically ill patients, with the logistic regression model showing a significantly greater area under the curve than the neural network model. Conclusions:The occurrence of pressure injury in neurocritically ill patients is closely related to incontinence, albumin levels, sensory ability, and mobility. Constructing predictive models using machine learning algorithms can provide valuable insights for the early prevention and management of pressure injury in neurocritically ill patients.

Objective:To discuss the clinical and genetic characteristics of neurodevelopmental disorder with or without early-onset generalized epilepsy (NEDEGE) caused by NBEA gene variation. Methods:The clinical and genetic records of a patient who was diagnosed with NEDEGE caused by NBEA gene variation at the Department of Neurology, Guangzhou Women and Children′s Medical Center in April 2024 were collected retrospectively. Using " NBEA or neurobeachin" "Autism spectrum disorders or ASD" "Epilepsy" "Neurodevelopmental disorders" as the keywords, relevant articles were searched at CNKI, Wanfang and PubMed databases from establishment of these databases to December 2024. Clinical and genetic features of NEDEGE were summarized in the combination of this case. Results:The proband, a 3 years old boy, was backward in development since childhood. He had autism spectrum disorder-like manifestations such as stereotyped behavior and poor eye contact. At the age of 2, he developed generalized seizures. The whole exome sequencing showed a de novo heterozygous variation of c.244CT(p.Gln82 *) in the NBEA gene (NM-001385012.1), and he was diagnosed with NEDEGE. A total of 10 articles (all in English) were retrieved, reporting 36 cases of NBEA gene related NEDEGE (including this case), 4 of whom coming from China. Twenty-four individuals suffered from mild to severe intellectual disability, and most were moderate.Twenty-eight patients had language delay, including 4 cases of complete loss of language function, and 24 patients had seizures, and 19 patients had autism or autima-like behavior problems. Conclusions:This case enriches the mutation spectrum of the NBEA gene, and the c.244CT is the first reported related variation in the Chinese population. The clinical symptoms of NEDEGE related to NBEA gene mutations are most pronounced in neurodevelopmental disorders, followed by seizures and autistic behavior.

Objective:To investigate the effect of Clostridium butyricum on renal tissue of db/db mice and to explore its mechanism. Methods:Fourteen-week-old db/db mice were divided into db/db group( n=10) and db/db+ Cb group( n=7) according to random number table method. Age-matched db/m mice were selected as the normal control group. The db/m and db/db mice were administered 0.9% sodium chloride solution by gavage, while the db/db+ Cb mice were administered an equivalent amount of Clostridium butyricum solution by gavage for 8 weeks. Serum creatinine , fasting blood glucose, urinary albumin to creatinine ratio(ACR) and other biochemical indicators were also detected. HE staining was used to observe the pathological changes of kidney tissue. The expressions of peroxisome proliferators-activated receptor γ coactivator-1α(PGC-1α) mRNA were detected by realtime PCR, while the expressions of nuclear factor-κB(NF-κB), glucagon-like peptide 1 receptor(GLP-1R), and adenosine monophosphate-activated protein kinase(AMPK) in kidney tissue were determined by immunohistochemistry and Western blotting. The levels of intestinal flora, serum and fecal short-chain fatty acids(SCFAs) were measured by 16S rRNA, liquid chromatograph-mass spectrometer, and gas chromatograohy-mass spectrometry respectively. Results:Compared to db/db mice, db/db+ Cb mice showed improvement in general condition after supplementation with Clostridium butyricum. Fasting blood glucose, blood urea nitrogen, albumin-to-creatinine ratio(ACR), blood creatinine, and levels of interleukin-6(IL-6) in kidney tissue were reduced(all P<0.05). The pathology showed various degrees of amelioration of kidney tissue injury in mice. The expression of PGC-1α mRNA increased in kidney tissue( P<0.05). Decreased expression of NF-κB protein, as well as increased expression of GLP-1R and phosphorylated(p-)AMPK/AMPK protein(all P<0.05) were detected in kidney tissues. Clostridium butyricum modulated the composition of the gut microbiota with elevated total SCFAs in blood and feces. Conclusion:Clostridium butyricum increased the expression of GLP-1R in kidney tissue, promoted AMPK phosphorylation, and alleviated renal tissue damage in mice. This suggests that it may be associated with regulating the abundance of SCFA-producing bacterial populations.

Cyclin-dependent kinase 1 is a highly conserved serine/threonine kinase that acts as a checkpoint during mitosis, coordinating and promoting cell cycle progression. CDK1 is significantly upregulated in hepatocellular carcinoma. It is mainly related to p53 signal transduction pathway, LINC00346-miR-199a-3p-CDK1/CyclinB pathway, SNHG16/let-7b-5P/CDC25B/CDK1 pathway and UPF1-SNord52-CDK1 pathway. In this paper, the mechanism of CDK1 involvement in the occurrence and development of hepatocellular carcinoma was systematically elaborated, and the current situation of CDK1 inhibitor targeted treatment of HCC was clarified, which could provide clues and basis for the treatment of HCC with CDK1 as the target.

Objective To evaluate the objective sleep status of patients with chronic insomnia by cardiopulmonary coupling (CPC) technique, and evaluate the characteristics of cognitive dysfunction to explore the correlation between objective sleep and cognitive dysfunction in patients with chronic insomnia. Methods Forty-three patients with chronic insomnia, admitted to our hospital from October 2017 to April 2019, were enrolled in our study;15 age-, gender-and education-matched healthy volunteers were recruited as control group. All subjects followed their daily routine at home and completed CPC examination. Montreal Cognitive Assessment (MoCA), Auditory Vocabulary Learning Test (AVLT), Trail Making Test (TMT) and Stroop Color Word Test were used to evaluate the general and single cognitive functions, respectively. The correlation of objective sleep with cognitive function was analyzed. Results (1) As compared with those in the control group, high frequency coupling (stable sleep) ratio was significantly decreased, low frequency coupling (un-stable sleep) ratio and extremely low frequency coupling (rapid-eye-movement sleep/waking) ratio were significantly increased, and latency of high frequency coupling was significantly prolonged in chronic insomnia group (P<0.05). (2) Chronic insomnia group had significantly lower MoCA total scores than control group (P<0.05), specifically manifested as decrement of visuospatial ability and execution and attention abilities; specific cognitive test showed that chronic insomnia group performed worse in immediate recall, and had delayed recall of AVLT, longer time consumption in TMT-B, smaller number of wired arrival numbers, and longer time consumption in Stroop color word test than the control group, with significant differences (P<0.05). (3) There was a correlation between CPC sleep structure and Cognitive Function Scale scores in patients with chronic insomnia. Conclusion In patients with chronic insomnia, stable sleep is reduced, un-stable sleep and rapid-eye-movement sleep/waking are increased; the impaired cognition domains are visual space and executive function, attention and memory; disturbed sleep structure aggravates the memory and execution impairment of patients with chronic insomnia.
