Ten-eleven translocation 2 （TET2）， as a core enzyme in epigenetic regulation， dynamically regulates the differentiation and function of CD4⁺ T cells by mediating DNA demethylation. Recent studies have shown that TET2 deficiency can promote the progression of autoimmune hepatitis （AIH） by disrupting the Th17/Treg balance and activating inflammatory signals along the gut-liver axis. This article systematically reviews the bridging role of TET2 between CD4⁺ T cells and gut microbiota， explores the molecular mechanisms by which it drives AIH through the gut microbiota-epigenetics-immunity network， and discusses the potential intervention strategies targeting the TET2-microbiota axis.

Objective To explore the pharmaceutical care clinical pharmacists provide for anti-infective therapy in patients undergoing continuous renal replacement therapy(CRRT)after lung transplantation.Methods The clinical pharmacist utilized a limited sampling strategy and participated in the entire anti-infective treatment process for an adult lung transplant recipient based on pharmacokinetic monitoring results.The CRRT duration was flexibly adjusted,the dosing regimen was optimized,and adverse drug reactions were monitored.Result The clinical pharmacist assisted the physician in optimizing the polymyxin B anti-infective therapy post-transplantation,leading to successful infection control and patient discharge.Conclusion Clinical pharmacists can conduct real-time drug concentration monitoring in lung transplant patients based on pharmacokinetic characteristics,develop individualized dosing regimens,and improve medication safety and efficacy during anti-infective therapy.

Objective:To investigate the sero-conversion rate of HIV antibody and influencing factors in cross-border couples in Dehong Dai and Jingpo Autonomous Prefecture(Dehong).Methods:A cohort design was used to recruit HIV-negative people in cross-border couples in Dehong in 2017. Follow-up was conducted in 2023, and questionnaire survey and HIV test were carried out to calculate the sero-conversion rate of HIV antibody. Univariate and multivariate logistic regression models were used to analyze the influence factors for HIV infections.Results:A total of 36 278 HIV-negative persons in cross-border couples were included in the 2017 baseline survey, of whom 22 438 (61.9%) were tested in follow-up in 2023. The sero-conversion rate between 2017 and 2023 was 0.51% (115/22 438). Multivariate logistic regression analysis showed that length of marriage <6 years, Jingpo ethnic group, education level of primary school or below, drug use, illegal marriage and HIV infected spouse were the risk factors of HIV infection in male spouses, and length of marriage <6 years, Jingpo ethnic group, illegal marriage and HIV infected spouse were the risk factors in female spouses.Conclusions:The sero-conversion rate of HIV antibody in cross-border couples in Dehong was relatively high. HIV infection was mainly caused by secondary transmission in the couples, and men might also be infected through drug use. It is necessary to strengthen the registration and management of cross-border couples, especially the couples with discordant HIV infection status, and the intervention in drug users to reduce the risk for secondary transmission of HIV in the cross-border couples.

OBJECTIVE To compare the effects of leuprorelin and mifepristone on sex hormone levels， ovarian function， adverse reactions， and recurrence in patients with endometriosis （EMs） after surgery. METHODS A total of 178 patients who underwent surgical treatment for EMs in Ji’an Central People’s Hospital from September 2021 to September 2023 were randomly divided into the leuprorelin group and the mifepristone group， with 92 cases in each group. Medication was initiated on days 1 to 5 of the first menstrual cycle following surgery. Patients in the leuprorelin group received subcutaneous injections of Leuprorelin acetate microspheres， 3.75 mg per time， once every four weeks， for a total of 6 injections. Patients in the mifepristone group took 12.5 mg of Mifepristone capsules orally once daily for six consecutive months. Visual analog scale （VAS）， serum sex hormone levels [follicle-stimulating hormone （FSH）， luteinizing hormone （LH）， and estradiol （E2）]， ovarian function indicators [anti- Müllerian hormone （AMH）， antral follicle count （AFC）]， and T helper 1 cell （Th1）/Th2 shift markers [interferon-γ （IFN-γ）， interleukin 2 （IL-2）， IL-4， and IL-10] were compared between the two groups before surgery and after treatment. Incidence and outcome of adverse reactions and recurrence within one year were also compared between the two groups. RESULTS There were no statistically significant differences in baseline indicators between the two groups before surgery （P＞0.05）. After treatment， both groups showed significantly lower VAS scores for chronic pelvic pain， dysmenorrhea and dyspareunia， and significantly reduced serum FSH， LH， E2， IL-4 and IL-10 levels compared to before surgery （P＜0.05）， while serum IFN-γ and IL-2 levels were significantly increased （P＜0.05）； the leuprorelin group showed significantly greater improvements than the mifepristone group in all these indicators （P＜0.05）. After treatment， serum AMH levels in both groups were significantly lower than before surgery levels， while AFC was significantly increased （P＜0.05）； the leuprorelin group had significantly higher serum AMH levels and more AFC compared to the mifepristone group （P＜0.05）. There were no significant differences in the incidence of adverse reactions and outcome rates between the two groups （P＞0.05）. During one year of follow-up after discontinuation， the recurrence rate in the leuprorelin group was significantly lower than in the mifepristone group （1.15% vs. 10.99%， P＜0.05）. CONCLUSIONS Both leuprorelin and mifepristone are effective therapeutic drugs for EMs， but the former has advantages in alleviating pain， regulating serum sex hormone levels， protecting ovarian function， regulating immune function and reducing recurrence rates.

Objective To investigate the correlations of serum stromal cell-derived factor-1(SDF-1),chemokine receptor 7(CXCR7)and vascular density in the optic disc area with clinical stages in patients with normal-tension glaucoma(NTG).Methods A total of 157 patients with NTG were included in the NTG group and divided into stage Ⅰ group(n=29),stage Ⅱ group(n=88),and stage Ⅲ group(n=40)based on different clinical stages;additionally,56 healthy individuals with physical examinations in the same period were selected as control group.Serum SDF-1 and CXCR7 levels were compared between the NTG group and the control group;changes in vascular den-sity in the optic disc area among patients with different clinical stages were analyzed;the multivariate Logistic regression analysis was conducted to explore the risk factors for NTG.Results Compared with the control group,the NTG group had significantly increased serum levels of SDF-1 and CXCR7(P＜0.05).Compared with the control group,patients in the NTG group showed significantly decreased densities of large vessels,capillaries,and the entire area,as well as significantly increased density of avascular areas(P＜0.05).The densities of capillaries and the entire area were significantly lower in the stage Ⅱ group and stage Ⅲ group than the stage Ⅰ group,while the density of avascu-lar areas was significantly higher(P＜0.05).The densities of large vessels(r=-0.503,P=0.006),capillaries(r=-0.546,P＜0.001),and the entire area(r=-0.553,P＜0.001)were negatively significantly correlated with clinical stages,while the density of avascular area was positively significantly correlated with clinical stages(r=0.521,P=0.002).The proportions of patients with hypertension,history of alcohol consumption,family history of glaucoma,and high ser-um levels of SDF-1 and CXCR7 in the NTG group were significantly higher than those in the control group(P＜0.05).Multivariate Logistic regression analysis revealed that hypertension,family histo-ry of glaucoma,history of alcohol consumption,and high serum levels of SDF-1 and CXCR7 were risk factors for NTG(P＜0.05).Conclusion Patients with NTG have significantly increased ser-um levels of SDF-1 and CXCR7.The densities of large vessels,capillaries,and the entire area are negatively correlated with clinical stages,while the density of avascular areas is positively correlated with clinical stages.Serum levels of SDF-1 and CXCR7 can serve as effective reference indicators for the diagnosis and clinical staging of NTG.

Objective:To develop an artificial intelligence (AI)-based automatic scoring model for magnetic resonance imaging-detected extramural vascular invasion (AI-mrEMVI) and evaluate its performance and prognostic value in patients with rectal cancer.Methods:In this multicenter retrospective cohort study, a total of 2 501 rectal cancer patients from seven centers between November 2012 and December 2020 were included and divided into completely independent training ( n=1 830) and validation ( n=671) cohorts. A nnUNet-based AI-mrEMVI scoring model was constructed. Manual mrEMVI scores assigned by two radiologists served as the reference standard for accessing the accuracy of the AI-mrEMVI scoring. Kaplan-Meier survival analysis and Cox regression were used to evaluate the prognostic stratification ability of the AI-mrEMVI scores. The concordance index (C-index) was calculated to evaluate prognostic performance. Results:In the validation cohort, the manual mrEMVI scores were 0-2 in 425 patients (63.3%), 3 in 89 (13.4%), and 4 in 157 (23.4%). The AI-mrEMVI model identified 0-2 in 375 patients (55.9%), 3 in 95 (14.2%), and 4 in 201 (30.0%), with an overall accuracy of 81.1% (544/671, 95% CI 77.9%-84.0%). The 3-year disease-free survival (DFS) rates for patients with AI-mrEMVI scores of 0-2, 3, and 4 were 85.2%, 70.0%, and 58.2%, respectively, and the 5-year overall survival (OS) rates were 87.2%, 81.6%, and 62.6%, respectively (DFS: χ2=48.74, P<0.001; OS: χ2=30.04, P<0.001). Multivariable Cox regression showed that for DFS, AI-mrEMVI scores of 3 and 4 were associated with hazard ratios ( HR) of 1.75 (95% CI 1.11-2.77, P=0.016) and 2.65 (95% CI 1.86-3.78, P<0.001), respectively. For OS, an AI-mrEMVI score of 4 was associated with an HR of 2.56 (95% CI 1.62-4.03, P<0.001). The C-index values of the AI-mrEMVI scoring model for predicting DFS and OS were 0.647 (95% CI 0.608-0.686) and 0.650 (95% CI 0.598-0.702), respectively. Conclusion:The proposed AI-mrEMVI automatic scoring model demonstrated high diagnostic accuracy and performed favorably in predicting DFS and OS prognostic risk in patients with rectal cancer.

Objective:To construct an evaluation indicator system for power system of otolaryngology surgery,so as to provide references for the configuration of surgical power devices of medical institutions.Methods:Literature review and brainstorming were used to analyze existing literature related to surgical power.Combined with expert opinions and clinical demands,an evaluation indicator system was initially proposed.The Delphi method was adopted to determine the evaluation indicators of power system of otolaryngology surgery.The analytic hierarchy process(AHP)method was used to determine the evaluation indicator system of the power system of otolaryngology surgery,which were constructed by weight of each indicator.Results:The evaluation indicator system of power system of otolaryngology surgery included 5 first-level indicators(integrity of medical equipment,products'performance indicators,safety,clinical application effect,and after-sales service guarantee)and 49 second-level indicators under the first-level indicators.In the first-level indicators,equipment's safety had the highest weight(20.48%).In the second-level indicators,the top three of the combined weights were respectively integrity of equipment's main device(7.19%),accessory's integrity(7.03%),and identification's integrity(6.03%).Conclusion:The evaluation index system for otolaryngological surgical power systems clarifies the core dimensions,specific indicators and relative importance of the evaluation,and can be applied to the procurement and selection of surgical power devices in medical institutions,performance testing,clinical effect evaluation and other aspects.
