Aim To examine the pathogenesis of disul-fide death gene in vascular dementia(VD)by bioin-formatics analysis of disulfide death differentially ex-pressed genes(DEGs)combined with experimental verification.Methods The death DEGs of disulfide were screened and their correlation was analyzed.The VD patients data in the data set were analyzed by clus-tering and typing and gene set variation.The clustering risk of DEGs was tested with a nomogram model,and the optimal learning model was predicted.After the es-tablishment of VD rat model,water maze test,HE stai-ning and RT-qPCR detection were performed to verify the results of health information.Results Four DEGs including SLC7A11 were obtained,which had antago-nistic or synergistic interaction with each other.The genetic data could be divided into two subtypes with significant differences.After typing,VD disulfide DEGs were mainly concentrated in GnRH signaling pathways.The accuracy of the nomogram prediction model was high.Generalized linear was the best ma-chine learning model.Compared with the sham opera-tion group,the escape latency of rats in the model group was prolonged,the number of crossing platforms decreased,the relative mRNA expression levels of Slc3a2 and Slc7a11 decreased,and LRPPRC in-creased.Conclusions SLC7A11 and other disulfide death DEGs and its related GnRH signaling pathway may be an important part of the pathogenesis of VD di-sulfide death.SLC3A2,LRPPRC and SLC7A11 can be used as characteristic genes in the regulation of VD by disulfide death,which may affect VD progression through the regulation of disulfide death.

Objective To investigate the effects of varying durations of overwork on cardiomyocyte pyroptosis in mice.Methods A total of 24 SPF KM mice were randomly divided into four groups(n=6)using a random number table:control group,2-week overwork(W2)group,4-week overwork(W4)group,and 6-week overwork(W6)group.Mice in control group were normally raised,while those in W2,W4,and W6 groups were forced to stand in water for 8 h and then restrained for 3 h daily for 2,4,6 weeks,respectively.The general condition and weekly weight changes of the mice were observed.After modeling,blood samples were collected,and hearts were excised.Myocardial histopathological changes were assessed using hematoxylin and eosin(HE)staining.The localization of gasdermin D(GSDMD)protein in myocardial tissue was detected through immunohistochemical staining,and the expression levels of pyroptosis-related proteins[NOD-like protein receptor 3(NLRP3),Caspase-1,GSDMD]in myocardial tissue were analyzed using Western blotting.The contents of interleukin-1β(IL-1β)and interleukin-18(IL-18)in serum and myocardial tissues were measured using ELISA.Results(1)The weight of control group mice increased steadily within 2 weeks.In W2 group,there was no significant weight change within 2 weeks,while in W4 and W6 groups,the body weights were higher than their initial values from the 2nd to 6th week.Compared with control group,the body weights of W2,W4,and W6 groups were lower than those of control group in the 1st and 2nd week,with statistically significant differences(P<0.05).The activity levels of the mice in W2,W4,and W6 groups initially increased and then decreased,with their fur becoming dull and falling out,and their mental state deteriorating.(2)In control group,cardiomyocytes were neatly arranged,and the nuclear morphology was normal.Compared with control group,in W2 group,cardiomyocyte arrangement was less regular,and capillary congestion was increased.In W4 group,the vascular congestion in the myocardium was significantly increased,the interstitial tissue was hyperplastic,and vacuolization appeared around the nuclei.In W6 group,the myocardial interstitium was loose,fat infiltration was increased,vacuolization around the nuclei was increased,and myocardial fibers were swollen,and the arrangement was disordered.(3)GSDMD was mainly located in the cytoplasm of cardiomyocytes.Compared with control group,the expression levels of NLRP3,Caspase-1,and GSDMD proteins in W2,W4,and W6 groups were significantly increased,and the expression levels were in the order of W6 group>W4 group>W2 group,with significant differences(P<0.05).(4)Compared to control group,the levels of IL-1β in serum and myocardial tissues of W2,W4,and W6 groups were significantly increased.In serum,the level of IL-1β in W6 group was higher than those in W2 and W4 groups,and in myocardial tissue,the levels in W4 and W6 groups were higher than those in the W2 group,with significant differences(P<0.05).There were no significant differences in IL-1β levels in serum among W2 and W4 groups,nor were there significant differences in myocardial tissue between W4 and W6 groups(P>0.05).Compared with control group,the levels of IL-18 in serum and myocardial tissue of W4 and W6 groups were significantly increased(P<0.05).In serum,the levels of IL-18 in W4 and W6 groups were higher than that in W2 group,and in myocardial tissue,the level in W6 group was higher than those in W2 and W4 groups,with the differences being statistically significant(P<0.05).Conclusions Overwork can cause structural damage to mouse myocardial tissue,increase the expression of pyroptosis proteins NLRP3,Caspase-1,GSDMD,and aggravate myocardial inflammatory responses in overworked mice.Cardiomyocyte pyroptosis may be one of the factors contributing to sudden cardiac death induced by overwork.

Aim To investigate the dynamic time-course changes in neuronal cytoskeleton after acute ischemia and reperfusion in rats. Methods Reperfusion was performedin rats by blocking the middle cerebralarteryfor 90 min, then therats wereobserved and collected at different time points. The brain damage wasobserved by Nissl staining,and neurobehavioural function was evaluated with neurological deficit score and forelimb placement test. The cellular changes in the alternations of cytoskeletal elements including microtubule associated protein 2 (MAP2) and neurofilament heavy chain (NF-H) were observed by immunohistochemistry staining and Western blot. Impaired axons, dendrites and cytoskeletal alternations were detected by electron microscope. Results Brain damage and neurobehavioural function were gradually aggravated with the prolongation of reperfusion. Brain damage appeared earlier and more severe in striatum than in cortex. Moreover, decreased MAP2-related and increased NF-H-related immunoreactive intensities were found in the ischemic areas. Impaired cytoskeletal arrangement and reduced dense were indicated. Damaged cytoskeletal components such as microtubules and neurofilament arrangement, decreased axonal filament density, and swelled dendrites were observed after cerebral ischemia reperfusion by ultrastructural observations. Conclusions Different brain regions have diverse tolerance to ischemia-reperfusion injury. Major elements of neuronal cytoskeleton show dynamic responses to ischemia and reperfusion, which may further contribute to brain damage and neurological impairment following MCAO and reperfusion.

Objectives: This study aimed to present the Asia-Pacific consensus on long-term and sequential therapy for osteoporosis, offering evidence-based recommendations for the effective management of this chronic condition.The primary focus is on achieving optimal fracture prevention through a comprehensive, individualized approach. Methods: A panel of experts convened to develop consensus statements by synthesizing the current literature and leveraging clinical expertise. The review encompassed long-term anti-osteoporosis medication goals, first-line treatments for individuals at very high fracture risk, and the strategic integration of anabolic and anti resorptive agents in sequential therapy approaches. Results: The panelists reached a consensus on 12 statements. Key recommendations included advocating for anabolic agents as the first-line treatment for individuals at very high fracture risk and transitioning to anti resorptive agents following the completion of anabolic therapy. Anabolic therapy remains an option for in dividuals experiencing new fractures or persistent high fracture risk despite antiresorptive treatment. In cases of inadequate response, the consensus recommended considering a switch to more potent medications. The consensus also addressed the management of medication-related complications, proposing alternatives instead of discontinuation of treatment. Conclusions This consensus provides a comprehensive, cost-effective strategy for fracture prevention with an emphasis on shared decision-making and the incorporation of country-specific case management systems, such as fracture liaison services. It serves as a valuable guide for healthcare professionals in the Asia-Pacific region, contributing to the ongoing evolution of osteoporosis management.

Aim To investigate the dynamic changes of neuronal cells at different time points following acute cerebral ischemia-reperfusion injury by establishing a model of brain ischemia-reperfusion injury.Methods Thirty male Sprague-Dawley(SD)rats were ran-domly divided into six groups:sham group and cere-bral ischemia-reperfusion injury(IR)groups at differ-ent time points.Focal cerebral ischemia-reperfusion injury model was established using the middle cerebral artery occlusion(MCAO)technique.The Longa sco-ring method was used to assess neurobehavioral scores in rats.After successful model preparation,routine paraffin sections were made,and TUNEL staining and immunohistochemistry staining with NeuN antibody were performed to observe cell apoptosis and neuronal cell survival,respectively.Immunohistochemistry stai-ning was also performed to investigate the changes in glial fibrillary acidic protein(GFAP)as a marker for astrocytes,ionized calcium-binding adapter molecule 1(IBA-1)as a marker for microglia,and CD31 as a marker for endothelial cells at different time points.Results No significant changes were observed in neu-ronal cells of the sham group at different time points.In the cerebral ischemia-reperfusion injury groups,cell apoptosis was activated at IR3h and increased in quan-tity with morphological damage as time progressed.Ne-uN+neurons showed signs of ischemic injury after IR3h,with abnormal cell morphology.From 12 h,Ne-uN+neurons decreased in a time-dependent manner and reached their peak severity at 24 h.GFAP+astro-cytes decreased significantly after IR3h,while poorly labeled GFAP+astrocytes increased at IR 6 h and al-most disappeared in the infarcted area at 24 h and 48 h.The number of IBA-1+microglia-positive cells de-creased at IR3h,and their volume increased at IR6h.Microglial cell death was observed in the infarcted area at IR12h.CD31+endothelial cells around the infarc-ted cortex and striatum increased significantly after IR3h and persisted until 48 h.Conclusions After cerebral ischemia-reperfusion injury,the number of ap-optotic cells increases with the prolongation of time,and NeuN+neurons exhibit the most severe damage at 24 h.GFAP+astrocytes and microglial cells gradually die over time.The number of CD31+endothelial cells increases significantly around the infarcted cortex and striatum after 3 h of reperfusion and persists until 48 h.

Objective:To determine the status of nutritional literacy and its influencing factors among the peritoneal dialysis (PD) patients. Methods:The patients who underwent PD and long-term follow-up in the Department of Nephrology,General Hospital of Eastern Theater Command between January and October,2023 were enrolled in this study. The status of nutritional literacy in the patients was assessed through collecting and analyzing the data on the patients' general information,the current nutritional status,and laboratory-and dialysis-related indicators. Results:The average score of nutritional literacy in the enrolled patients were (24.49±3.35). Significant differences in nutritional literacy scoring were observed in the different patient subgroups according to the patients' educational background,dialysis time or times of receiving multidisciplinary diet guidance (all P values<0.05). The nutritional literacy levels of PD patients were negatively correlated to the concentrations of serum calcium and prealbumin,and left ventricular posterior wall thickness,and postively correlated to prealbumin level(P<0.05). Basing on multiple linear regression analysis,the times of receiving multidisciplinary diet guidance,educational background and serum prealbumin level were identified as independent influencing factors for the nutritional literacy levels in PD patients,respectively (all P values<0.05). Conclusions:The present study showed that the nutritional literacy of PD patients was in the middle level. In clinical practice,to enhance multidisciplinary diet guidance and management at the early stage of PD could contribute to improve the nutritional status of PD patients. In addition,to increase the patients' nutritional knowledge and health management ability might be also helpful for the nutritional levels of PD patients.
