Objective To evaluate the short-term effects of comprehensive health management interventions for stroke high-risk population screening on the prevention and treatment of ischemic stroke, and to provide reference and basis for improving and exploring health management and prevention strategies for stroke high-risk population. Methods From 2018 to 2022, 13 community health service centers in Jiading District, Shanghai were selected in the present study. Based on information push platform, stroke risk assessment and health intervention follow-up were conducted for community residents through convenience sampling. The residents were divided into a full course intervention group (intervention group) and a routine intervention group (control group) according to different health intervention measures and forms. The incidence of ischemic stroke in the two groups of survey subjects was tracked within 36 months. Results A total of 52144 subjects were included in the study. The total number of patients in the full course intervention group was 14227, with an incidence density of 577.32/100 000 (556.49/100 000-598.12/100 000), which was lower than that of the conventional intervention group (37 917), with an incidence density of 1 485.47/100 000 (1 464.99/100 000-1 505.94/100 000) (χ²=2490.212, P<0.001). The relative risk of the full course intervention group was 0.39, and the relative risk of stroke risk factors in the full course intervention group from low to high was 0.33, 0.43, 0.45, and 0.49, respectively. The incidence density of males in the full course intervention group was 660.76 (627.46/100 000 - 694.05/100 000), with a relative risk of 0.43, and the incidence density of female patients was 509.71/100 000 (483.37/100 000 - 536.05/100 000), with a relative risk of 0.35. The overall incidence density of the population under 62 years old gourp, 62-75 years old group and over 75 years old group was 197.45/100 000 (173.09/100 000 -221.80/100 000), 608.36/100 000 (580.19/100 000-636.54/100 000), and 1 025.06/100 000 (958.51/100 000-1 091.61/100 000), with relative risks of 0.51, 0.44, and 0.38, respectively. Conclusion Comprehensive health management measures can effectively reduce the short-term risk of ischemic stroke, and should be further promoted and improved to enhance the effectiveness of stroke prevention and control.

Objective To analyze the clinical efficacy of intelligent wireless endoscopy in transurethral resection of the prostate, so as to provide evidence for clinical application. Methods A retrospective analysis was conducted on the clinical data of 70 patients with benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH) who underwent transurethral resection of the prostate at Tongling People's Hospital during Jan. 2023 and Dec. 2024. Based on the type of endoscopes used, patients were divided into a wireless endoscopy group and a traditional endoscopy group, with 35 patients in either group. Differences between the two groups were compared in terms of surgical preparation time, operation time, postoperative hospital stay, catheter indwelling time, intraoperative blood loss, surgical complications, and operating comfort during the procedure. Results All 70 operations were successfully completed without severe urinary incontinence. The wireless laparoscopy group demonstrated significantly shorter surgical preparation time compared to the traditional laparoscopy group [(12.14±2.39)min vs. (14.89±0.80)min, P＜0.001].There was no statistically significant difference in the operation time between the two groups [(93.51±34.49)min vs. (101.71±34.87)min, P=0.326]. There were no statistically significant differences between the two groups in postoperative hospital stay, catheter indwelling time, intraoperative blood loss, and surgical complications (P＞0.05). The wireless endoscopy group demonstrated significantly higher operating comfort compared to the traditional endoscopy group [(3.94±0.77) vs. (2.57±0.61), P＜0.001]. Conclusion The use of intelligent wireless endoscopy for transurethral resection of the prostate is comparable to traditional endoscopy in surgical efficacy and patient safety, but it can shorten preoperative preparation time and improve operator comfort.

Kidney transplantation is an effective treatment for end-stage renal disease.However,post transplantation diabetes mellitus(PTDM)is a common complication after kidney transplantation,affecting 10%to 40%of recipients and increasing the risk of cardiovascular disease,infections,sepsis and other conditions.The pathogenesis of PTDM is complex,including pancreatic β-cell dysfunction and insulin resistance.Tacrolimus,a commonly used immunosuppressive drug,is an independent risk factor for PTDM.Its mechanisms include damaging pancreatic β-cells,mediating impaired mitochondrial autophagy,etc.In addition,tacrolimus also raises blood glucose levels through various pathways,such as affecting gut microbiota metabolism and activating bile acid signaling pathways.In recent years,some new anti-diabetic drugs have shown certain application prospects in kidney transplant recipients,but the evidence-based medical evidence for their combined use still needs further exploration.In the future,it is necessary to conduct in-depth research on the multiple sites of action of tacrolimus to reduce the occurrence of PTDM and improve the prognosis of kidney transplant recipients.

Objective:To investigate the effect and mechanism of injectable photopolymerizable porous gelatin methacrylate anhydride (Porous GelMA)/methacrylated silk fibroin (SilMA) composite hydrogel (PSE) loaded with human umbilical cord mesenchymal stem cell-derived exosomes (hUCMSC-Exos) in promoting knee joint cartilage regeneration.Methods:The porous GelMA solution (60 g/L) was mixed with SilMA solution (200 g/L) at a volume ratio of 6∶1 . The mixture was ultraviolet-irradiated for 30 seconds to form a cured Porous GelMA/SilMA hydrogel (P/S6). The hUCMSC-Exos was isolated via differential centrifugation coupled with ultrafiltration and then was incorporated into the Porous GelMA/SilMA composite solution at 200 μg/ml, followed by ultraviolet irradiation for 30 seconds to generate Exos-loaded PSE. Primary rat chondrocytes (P1) were divided into control group, P/S6 group, and PSE group to characterize the porosity, compressive strength, and sustained exosome release kinetics of PSE hydrogel. Chondrocytes were allocated to control group, interleukin-1β (IL-1β) group, P/S6 group, and PSE group, among which the last three groups were preconditioned with 10 ng/ml IL-1β for 24 hours, and then cultured in complete medium, P/S6 extract and PSE extract for 3 days, respectively, to establish in vitro cartilage defect models, while the control group remained untreated. Western blot and qRT-PCR analysis were conducted to quantify the expression levels of antibody to aggrecan core protein (ACAN), sex-determining region Y-box transcription factor 9 (SOX9), matrix metalloproteinase-13 (MMP13) and collagen type II (COL II). Murine monocyte-macrophage leukemia cells (RAW264.7) were divided into control group, P/S6 group, and PSE group, which were then cultured in complete medium, PSE extract, and PSE extract medium for 3 days, respectively. qRT-PCR was employed to detect the expression levels of recombinant arginase-1 protein (ARG1), mannose receptor (CD206), and inducible nitric oxide synthase (iNOS). Transcriptomic sequencing was used to identify differentially expressed genes during PSE-mediated chondrocyte regeneration, followed by functional enrichment analysis of key signaling pathways. Twenty-four SD rats were selected to establish cartilage defect models and assigned to injury control group, P/S6 group, and PSE group according to the random number table (8 rats per group). The right knee joints of the rats were surgically exposed, and cylindrical osteochondral defects (a diameter of 2.0 mm× a depth of 1.0 mm) were surgically created in the center of the femoral trochlear groove using a drill bit. The injury control group received phosphate-buffered saline, while the P/S6 group and PSE group were injected with corresponding hydrogels followed by photo-crosslinking. Incisions then were closed in layers. At 6 and 10 weeks after injury, specimens were harvested for HE staining and safranin O-fast green staining to evaluate cartilage regeneration and immunohistochemistry staining to quantify the positive area fractions for COL II, MMP13, ARG1, and CD206 in the defect areas. Results:PSE hydrogel exhibited compressive strength matching native cartilage (0.41 MPa), high porosity (85%), and sustained exosome release capacity (cumulative release rate of approximately 85% over 14 days). In chondrocyte repair experiments, compared to the IL-1β group, the PSE group demonstrated significantly upregulated expression of anabolic markers of cartilage (COL II expression increased by 2.1-fold, ACAN by 1.8-fold, and SOX9 by 1.5-fold) ( P<0.01) as well as significantly suppressed expression of catabolic markers (MMP13 expression decreased by 52%) ( P<0.01). In macrophage polarization assays, the PSE group exhibited ARG1 expression increased by 68% when compared to the control group ( P<0.01), thus promoting M2 polarization of macrophages. Transcriptomic analysis revealed that PSE enhanced extracellular matrix (ECM) synthesis by activating the phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase/protein kinase B (PI3K/Akt) pathway and ECM-receptor interaction pathway, as well as by suppressing inflammation-related gene expression. Histological evaluation in animal experiments revealed regeneration of hyaline cartilage with smooth, continuous surfaces in the defect areas in the PSE group. At 10 weeks after surgery, the neocartilage-positive area in the PSE group was (9.94±0.26)%, significantly larger than (1.67±0.11)% in the injury control group ( P<0.01). Besides, the CD206? M2 macrophage-positive area reached (14.44±0.23)% in the PSE group, significantly larger than (3.41±0.36)% in the injury control group ( P<0.01). Conclusions:The PSE hydrogel successfully engineered in the study can significantly promote regenerative repair of knee cartilage defects through a dual mechanism of enhanced ECM anabolism and remodeled inflammatory microenvironment. The core mechanisms involve specific activation of the PI3K/Akt pathway (boosting chondrocyte proliferation and survival) and ECM-receptor interaction pathway (driving ECM synthesis and assembly) by exosome-loaded PSE, while effectively polarizing macrophages toward an anti-inflammatory M2 phenotype so as to coordinately regulate cartilage ECM metabolism and suppress inflammatory responses.

Aim To investigate the protective role and mechanism of ginsenoside Rg1 in myocardial inflamma-tion injury and fibrosis induced by chronic lipopolysac-charide(LPS)exposure in mice.Methods A chro-nic LPS-induced mouse model was established and ran-domly assigned to six groups:control,LPS(200 μg·kg-1),Rg1(5,10,20 mg·kg-1)and Tempol(50 mg·kg-1)groups.Cardiac function was evaluated by using echocardiography,and histopathological changes in myocardial tissue were assessed via hematoxylin-eo-sin(HE)staining,Masson's trichrome staining,and periodic acid-Schiff(PAS)staining.The expression levels of TRPC6,AIM2,NLRP3,cleaved caspase-1,IL-1β,and IL-6 were detected by Western blotting.Results Compared with the control group,the cardiac function of LPS group significantly decreased,the de-gree of myocardial injury and fibrosis was aggravated,and the expressions of TRPC6,AIM2,NLRP3,IL-1 βand IL-6 significantly increased.Compared with the LPS model group,Rg1 treatment significantly improved the cardiac function,alleviated myocardial injury and fibrosis,and inhibited the expression of TRPC6,the activation of AIM2/NLRP3 inflammasomes and the ex-pression of inflammatory factors.Conclusions Gin-senoside Rg1 can inhibit the activation of AIM2/NL-RP3 inflammasomes by down-regulating TRPC6 signa-ling,thereby reducing the chronic myocardial inflam-matory injury and fibrosis caused by chronic LPS expo-sure.

Objective To investigate the clinical efficacy and safety of facilitated percutaneous coronary intervention(PCI)with half-dose recombinant staphylokinase(r-SAK)in patients with ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction(STEMI)who are expected to undergo PCI within 120 minutes.Methods From October 2021 to August 2022,a total of 200 STEMI patients in eight centers were included and randomly assigned in a 1﹕1 ratio to either r-SAK group or control group.Patients received loading doses of aspirin and ticagrelor and intravenous heparin and were randomized to receive an intravenous bolus of either 5 mg r-SAK or normal saline prior to PCI.The outcomes were set as ST-segment resolution(STR)at 60-90 minutes after PCI,the proportion and transition of pathological Q waves on the 5th day after PCI,and the proportion of high-sensitivity cardiac troponin T(hs-cTnT)peaking within 12 hours of onset.The safety outcome was major bleeding events defined as Bleeding Academic Research Consortium(BARC)≥type 3 bleeding during hospitalization.Results Compared with the control group,the r-SAK group had a higher proportion of STR≥70%within 60-90 minutes after PCI(58.3%vs.40.3%,P=0.009);a lower proportion of pathological Q waves(59.1%vs.74.1%,P=0.040);a lower rate of Q wave progression(14.8%vs.43.2%,P＜0.001);a higher rate of Q wave disappearance(12.5%vs.3.7%,P=0.027);and a higher proportion of hs-cTnT peaking within 12 hours of symptom onset[31/40(77.5%)vs.17/33(51.5%),P=0.027].Regarding the safety outcome,no significant difference in BARC≥type 3 bleeding was found between the two groups during hospitalization(P＞0.05).Conclusions For STEMI patients who were expected to undergo primary PCI within 120 minutes of symptom onset,the facilitated PCI with half-dose r-SAK significantly increased the proportion of STR≥70%at 60-90 minutes after PCI,reduced the formation of pathological Q waves,and shortened the time to peak hs-cTnT,without increasing the risk of bleeding,which should be an alternative reperfusion strategy worthy of further study.
