Objective To investigate the prevalence and related factors of sarcopenia among non–bedridden older adults in the community of Baoshan District using the China mini sarcopenia risk assessment 7 (C-MSRA-7) combined with Ishii scoring system. Methods The older individuals consulting at 20 community health stations in Baoshan District between April 2025 and June 2025 were enrolled. Data were collected using a general information questionnaire, a dietary and lifestyle habits survey, the C-MSRA-7, and the mini nutritional assessment-short form (MNA-SF). Handgrip strength and anthropometric measurements were also obtained. Individuals with both Ishii score and C-MSRA-7 results positive were classified into the sarcopenia risk group, while the remaining participants were assigned to the non–sarcopenia risk group. Differences in lifestyle habits, dietary patterns, and nutritional status between the two groups were compared. Results A total of 2 611 valid questionnaires were retrieved. Univariate analysis showed statistically significant differences in alcohol consumption, physical activity frequency, body mass index (BMI), nutritional status, activities of daily living, and regularity of three meals in sarcopenia risk group (n=486) and non–sarcopenia risk group (n=2 125, P<0.05). Logistic regression analysis showed that advanced age (75–84 years: OR=2.55, 95%CI 2.03–3.21; ≥85 years: OR=3.98, 95%CI 2.24–7.07), underweight status (OR=2.19, 95%CI 1.50–3.19), weight loss>2 kg (OR=4.52, 95%CI 2.68–7.64) past 3 months, lack of regular physical activity (OR=1.77, 95%CI 1.24–2.52) , and alcohol consumption (OR=1.48, 95%CI 1.07–2.05) were independent risk factors for sarcopenia (P<0.05). Behaviors related to healthy diet, including daily milk consumption (OR=0.40, 95%CI 0.30–0.52), regular three meals (OR=0.56, 95%CI 0.41–0.78), and high-quality protein intake (OR=0.70, 95%CI 0.52–0.94), were protective factors (P<0.05). Conclusions Sarcopenia among community–dwelling, non–bedridden older adults is closely associated with physical activity levels, dietary habits, and nutritional status. Early identification of individuals at risk, enhanced nutritional education, and timely implementation of nutritional interventions and exercise programs are recommended for this population.

Objective To investigate the therapeutic effect and underlying mechanism of piceatannol against hepatic ischemia-reperfusion injury (HIRI) in fatty liver. Methods A mouse model of fatty liver combined with HIRI was established, and experimental animals were assigned into four groups: sham operation group, fatty liver HIRI group, fatty liver HIRI + piceatannol group, and fatty liver HIRI + piceatannol + ML385 group (n=5). Serum levels of alanine transaminase (ALT), aspartate transaminase (AST) and lactate dehydrogenase (LDH) were detected in each group. Hepatic tissue injury was evaluated by hematoxylin-eosin staining. Biochemical assays were performed to measure the contents of malondialdehyde (MDA), glutathione (GSH) and superoxide dismutase (SOD). Reactive oxygen species (ROS) were quantified using the DHE fluorescent probe method, while the expression of 4-hydroxynonenal (4-HNE) was determined via immunohistochemical staining. Western blot was adopted to detect the protein expression of glutathione peroxidase 4 (GPX4), acyl-CoA synthetase long-chain family member 4 (ACSL4), heme oxygenase-1 (HO-1) and nuclear factor E2-related factor 2 (Nrf2). Primary mouse hepatocytes were isolated and cultured in vitro. After treatment with palmitic acid, an hypoxia/reoxygenation (H/R) model was established. Cellular experiments were divided into control group, steatosis H/R group, steatosis H/R + piceatannol group, and steatosis H/R + piceatannol + ML385 group. Calcein-AM/PI dual staining was used to observe cell viability, C11 BODIPY staining was used to determin lipid peroxidation levels, and DCFH-DA fluorescent probe was utilized to test intracellular ROS levels. Western blot was used to detect the protein abundances of GPX4, ACSL4, HO-1 and Nrf2, and real-time fluorescence quantitative polymerase chain reaction was applied to quantify their corresponding messenger RNA (mRNA) expression levels. Results Compared with the sham operation group, the levels of ALT, AST and LDH, liver injury score, DHE positive rate, MDA level and 4-HNE level increased, the levels of GSH and SOD decreased, the relative expression level of ACSL4 protein increased, and the relative expression levels of GPX4, Nrf2 and HO-1 proteins decreased in the fatty liver HIRI group; compared with the fatty liver HIRI group, the levels of ALT, AST and LDH, liver injury score, DHE positive rate, MDA level and 4-HNE level decreased, the levels of GSH and SOD increased, the relative expression level of ACSL4 protein decreased, and the relative expression levels of GPX4, Nrf2 and HO-1 proteins increased in the fatty liver HIRI + piceatannol group; compared with the fatty liver HIRI + piceatannol group, the levels of ALT, AST and LDH, liver injury score, DHE positive rate, MDA level and 4-HNE level increased, the levels of GSH and SOD decreased, the relative expression level of ACSL4 protein increased, and the relative expression levels of Nrf2 and HO-1 proteins decreased in the fatty liver HIRI + piceatannol + ML385 group (all P<0.05). Compared with the control group, the mean fluorescence intensity of DCFH-DA and MDA level increased, the levels of GSH and SOD decreased, the proportion of oxidized lipids increased, the protein and mRNA expression levels of ACSL4 increased, and the protein and mRNA expression levels of GPX4, HO-1 and Nrf2 decreased in the steatosis H/R group; compared with the steatosis H/R group, the mean fluorescence intensity of DCFH-DA and MDA level decreased, the levels of GSH and SOD increased, the proportion of oxidized lipids decreased, the relative protein and mRNA expression levels of ACSL4 decreased, and the relative protein and mRNA expression levels of GPX4, HO-1 and Nrf2 increased in the steatosis H/R + piceatannol group; compared with the steatosis H/R + piceatannol group, the mean fluorescence intensity of DCFH-DA and MDA level increased, the levels of GSH and SOD decreased, the proportion of oxidized lipids increased, the relative protein and mRNA expression levels of ACSL4 increased, and the relative protein and mRNA expression levels of GPX4, HO-1 and Nrf2 decreased in the steatosis H/R + piceatannol + ML385 group (all P<0.05). Conclusions Piceatannol relieves HIRI in fatty liver by activating the Nrf2/HO-1 signaling pathway to suppress ferroptosis in hepatocytes.

Objective To construct a LASSO-logistic regression model for the risk of complications of cardiopulmonary resuscitation(CPR)based on clinical data and relevant parameters of external chest compression and to provide a reference for the prevention of com-plications of cardiopulmonary resuscitation.Methods One hundred cardiac arrest survivor patients admitted to Shijiazhuang Circular Chemical Industrial Park Hospital from April 2020 to May 2023 were selected and divided into complication and non-complication groups according to complications.The clinical data,chest compression-related parameters of the 2 groups were compared,and LASSO regression was used to initially screen the influencing factors of CPR complications.Logistic regression was used to analyze the influencing factors of CPR complications,and Nomogram was drawn to predict the risk of CPR complications.Results LASSO regression screening showed that the coefficients of body mass index,thoracic anteroposterior diameter,rescuer education level,and rescuer gender were compressed.When λ was 1.786,the number of influencing factors was minimized,and the model performance was excellent.At this time,seven predic-tive variables including rescuer identity,rescuer CPR training,application of air mattress,application of decompression pad,compression depth,compression duration,and strict control of fluid volume were selected to achieve the best selection of influencing factors.Logistic regression analysis showed that rescuer being a nurse,rescuer having received CPR training,application of air mattress bed,application of decompression pad,and strict control of fluid volume were related protective factors for CPR complications,while compression depth and compression duration were related risk factors for CPR complications(P<0.05).The nomogram diagram of the logistic prediction model for CPR complication risk showed that its C-index was 0.932,indicating good discrimination,and the calibration curve fitted well with the ideal curve.The constructed prediction model had good consistency with the actual observed results.Conclusion CPR complications included sternal fractures,lung contusions,and rib fractures.The risk closely relates to the rescuer,the rescuer's CPR training,the appli-cation of air mattress bed,the application of decompression pad,the depth of compression,the duration of compression,and the strict con-trol of fluid volume.

Objective:To explore the value of the neutrophil-to-lymphocyte ratio(NLR)in early prediction of retinopathy of prematurity(ROP).Methods:The medical records of 325 preterm infants with a gestational age <32 weeks who were admitted to the Neonatology Department of the First Affiliated Hospital of Zhengzhou University from January 1,2019 to December 31,2019 were retrospectively reviewed.The complete blood cell results at 7-10 days of age were collected,including white blood cell,neutrophil,lymphocyte,monocyte,and platelet counts.The NLR,lymphocyte-to-monocyte ratio(LMR),and platelet-to-lymphocyte ratio(PLR)were calculated.Logistic regression analysis was used to assess the risk factors associated with ROP.The receiver operating characteristic curve was performed to evaluate the value of NLR in the early prediction of ROP.Results:A total of 325 infants were involved,including 110(33.8%)with ROP and 215(61.2%)without ROP.The gestational age,birth weight,platelet count,lymphocyte count,and LMR were significantly lower in the ROP group( P<0.05),whereas the neutrophil count and NLR were found to be significantly higher( P<0.05).Multivariate Logistic regression analysis revealed that small gestational age,low birth weight,and high NLR were major risk factors for the development of ROP.The sensitivity and specificity of NLR in early predicting ROP were 90.1% and 74.4%,respectively. Conclusion:The NLR at the first week after birth can serve as a simple method for early prediction of the development of ROP.

Objective:To identify the risk factors influencing the prognosis of patients with advanced breast cancer through LASSO-Logistic regression analysis and construct a nomogram model to evaluate their prognostic risk.Methods:A total of 178 patients with advanced breast cancer who visited the Department of Thyroid and Breast Surgery of Chengyang District People’s Hospital of Qingdao City from Jan. 2015 to Jan. 2023 were selected as the research subjects. According to the follow-up results, the patients were divided into a good-prognosis group and a poor-prognosis group. Clinical data of the patients were collected. LASSO-Logistic regression analysis was used to identify the risk factors affecting the prognosis of patients with advanced breast cancer. A nomogram model was constructed based on the analysis results. The predictive efficacy of the model for the prognostic risk of patients with advanced breast cancer was evaluated using the receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve and Hosmer-Lemeshow (H-L) test.Results:During the follow-up, 5 patients were lost to follow-up. Among the final 173 patients included, 60 had poor prognoses (accounting for 34.68%), and 113 had good prognoses (accounting for 65.32%). There were significant differences between the poor prognosis group and the good prognosis group in terms of the number of lymph node metastases ( χ 2=18.12), the number of organ metastases ( χ 2=14.28), the difference in ADC before and after treatment ( t=17.35), the difference in SER before and after treatment ( t=9.57), the enhancement of the echo behind the breast after treatment ( χ 2=13.00), and the proportion of increased calcification ( χ 2=8.06) (both P < 0.05). The clinical data with significant differences in the univariate analysis were included in the LASSO regression analysis. Six factors were finally selected: number of lymph node metastases > 5, number of organ metastases > 1, difference in ADC values before and after treatment, difference in SER values before and after treatment, enhanced echo behind the breast, and increased calcification. These six factors selected by LASSO regression were included in the Logistic regression analysis. The results showed that number of organ metastases > 1 ( OR=2.208, 95% CI: 1.153-3.263), small difference in ADC values before and after treatment ( OR=0.448, 95% CI: 0.287-0.608), enhanced echo behind the breast ( OR=2.474, 95% CI: 1.063-3.886), and increased calcification ( OR=3.762, 95% CI: 1.831-5.693) were independent risk factors for poor prognosis in patients with advanced breast cancer (both P<0.05). A nomogram model was constructed based on the analysis results. The ROC curve showed that the area under the curve (AUC) of the model was 0.778. The H-L test results showed that the calibration curve fit well with the ideal curve, with χ 2 = 0.69 and P = 0.273. Conclusion:The nomogram model constructed based on LASSO-Logistic regression analysis has good predictive efficacy for the prognosis of patients with advanced breast cancer.

Objective:To investigate the correlation between serum growth differentiation factor 15 (GDF15) and the clinicopathological characteristics of patients with IgA nephropathy (IgAN), and further explore the relationship of GDF15 with the cardiac and renal prognosis of IgAN patients.Methods:It was a single-center retrospective cohort study. From January 2018 to December 2022, the relevant data were collected from patients who were diagnosed with primary IgAN at the Department of Nephrology, Beijing Anzhen Hospital Affiliated to Capital Medical University, and regularly followed up for at least 1 year. Serum samples were collected at admission and the baseline level of serum GDF15 was measured. Based on the median GDF15 level, IgAN patients were categorized into high-level GDF15 group and low-level GDF15 group, and their clinicopathological characteristics were compared. A multiple linear regression model was then constructed to identify independent factors associated with serum GDF15 level based on these comparisons. Subsequently, Kaplan-Meier survival analysis was performed to investigate the association between serum GDF15 level and the cardiorenal prognosis of IgAN patients.Results:A total of 104 IgAN patients were included in this study. The serum GDF15 level in these IgAN patients was 825.60 (556.84, 1 428.15) ng/L. Serum GDF15 level was positively correlated with 24 h urinary protein ( r=0.405, P<0.001), negatively correlated with estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR)( r=-0.606, P<0.001). The serum levels of GDF15 in patients with tubular atrophy or interstitial fibrosis (overall comparison among T0, T1, and T2, H=21.866, P<0.001), crescentic lesions (overall comparison among C0, C1, and C2, H=13.787, P=0.001), or intrarenal arteriolar lesions (overall comparison among none, mild, and moderate-to-severe, H=9.856, P=0.007) were significantly different. Compared with IgAN patients without tubular atrophy or interstitial fibrosis, those with Oxford classification T1 ( Z=-17.326, P=0.042) or T2 ( Z=-42.933, P<0.001) had higher serum GDF15 levels. Compared with IgAN patients without crescentic lesions, those with Oxford classification C2 had higher serum GDF15 levels ( Z=-45.929, P=0.001). Compared with IgAN patients without intrarenal arteriolar lesions, those with moderate-to-severe arteriolar sclerosis had higher serum GDF15 levels ( Z=-26.686, P=0.005). The median GDF15 was used as the cut-off value to divide IgAN patients into a high-level GDF15 group (≥825.60 ng/L, n=52) and a low-level GDF15 group (<825.60 ng/L, n=52). Compared to low-level GDF15 group, IgAN patients in high-level GDF15 group presented with a higher proportion of diabetes mellitus ( χ 2=9.420, P=0.002) and cardiovascular disease ( χ 2=7.792, P=0.005), a higher level of systolic blood pressure ( Z=-2.266, P=0.023), body mass index ( Z=-2.183, P=0.031), 24 h urinary protein ( Z=-3.485, P<0.001), blood total cholesterol ( Z=-2.002, P=0.045) and left ventricular mass index ( Z=-2.649, P=0.008), and a lower level of blood albumin ( Z=-3.053, P=0.002) and eGFR ( Z=6.480, P<0.001). Multiple linear regression analysis showed that serum GDF15 level was independently associated with systolic blood pressure (regression coefficient B=29.453, 95% CI 14.139–44.767, P<0.001), blood albumin ( B=-81.412, 95% CI -113.084–-49.740, P<0.001) and eGFR ( B=-9.797, 95% CI -17.554–-2.040, P=0.014). Moreover, IgAN patients in high-level GDF15 group exhibited significantly poorer cardiac and renal prognosis compared to low-level GDF15 group ( χ 2=9.955, P=0.002). Conclusion:High serum GDF15 level correlates with disease severity in IgAN, and high serum GDF15 level may suggest a poorer cardiorenal prognosis in IgAN patients.

Objective:To investigate the different clinical characteristics and prognosis of patients with diabetic nephropathy (DN) accompanied by IgA deposition diagnosed by renal biopsy.Methods:The study was a retrospective cohort study. Clinical and pathological data of patients diagnosed with DN through renal biopsy in Beijing Anzhen Hospital affiliated to Capital Medical University from January 1, 2010 to March 31, 2023 were retrospectively collected. The clinical and pathological characteristics and prognosis of DN patients with IgA deposition and DN control group patients without IgA deposition were compared. Immunofluorescence staining was used to detect the intensity of galactose-deficient IgA1 (Gd-IgA1) staining in renal tissue of DN patients with DN IgA deposition, and grouping was performed according to whether the staining intensity was≥2+. Enzyme linked immunosorbent assay was used to detect the serum level of Gd-IgA1 in patients. A 50% decrease in estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) from baseline or progression to end-stage renal disease within 5 years was defined as a renal endpoint event, and Kaplan-Meier survival analysis and Log-rank test were used to compare the difference in cumulative incidence of renal endpoint events between two groups of patients.Results:A total of 101 DN patients were enrolled in this study, including 68 males (67.3%) and 33 females (32.7%), with age of (52.2±10.3) years and a median follow-up time of 13.5(4.8, 26.3) months. There were 44 patients with IgA deposition (43.6%) and 57 patients without IgA deposition (56.4%). Compared with DN control group, Kaplan-Meier analysis showed that DN patients with IgA deposition had a higher cumulative incidence of renal endpoint within 5 years ( χ2=6.473, P=0.011). The proportion of positive glomerular Gd-IgA1 (KM55) staining in the DN patients with IgA deposition was 54.5% (24/44), and immunofluorescence examination showed consistent distribution of Gd-IgA1 and IgA in the glomerular mesangial and capillary regions. The serum level of Gd-IgA1 in the glomerular Gd-IgA1 positive patients was significantly higher than that in those negative patients [(6 296.4± 1 535.4) μg/L vs. (4 057.4±1 082.0) μg/L, t=-3.037, P=0.010]. In DN patients with IgA deposition, the age of the subgroup with endpoint events was younger [(42.8±6.9) years vs. (53.3±9.4) years, t=-3.440, P=0.002], the duration of proteinuria was shorter [6.0(1.0, 22.0) months vs. 12.0(10.0, 36.0) months, Z=-2.150, P=0.032], and the proportion of patients with glomerular Gd-IgA1 staining intensity ≥2+ was higher [Fisher'exact test, 30.8%(4/13) vs. 0(0/20), P=0.017]. Kaplan-Meier survival analysis showed that patients with glomerular Gd-IgA1 staining intensity≥2+ had a significantly higher cumulative incidence of renal endpoint events ( χ2=4.846, P=0.028). Conclusion:DN patients with glomerular IgA deposition and Gd-IgA1 positivity may be associated with worse prognosis.

Thoracolumbar spine fracture often leads to severe pain, functional impairments, and neurological deficits, for which open reduction and internal fixation can effectively restore the spinal structural stability. Open decompression and reduction with internal fixation can help relieve spinal cord compression and improve spinal function in cases of concomitant cord injury. Although spinal stability can be restored through surgery, patients often face chronic pain and functional impairments postoperatively. A postoperative rehabilitation program is critical in optimizing therapeutic outcomes, reducing complications, and minimizing the risk of secondary injuries. However, current rehabilitation methods, such as physical therapy, functional training, and pain management, are confronted with problems in clinical practice, including significant variation in efficacy, poor patient adherence, and prolonged rehabilitation period. There is an urgent need for a unified rehabilitation strategy to address these problems. To this end, the Spinal Trauma Group of the Orthopedic Physicians Branch of the Chinese Medical Association and the Spine Health Professional Committee of the Chinese Human Health Technology Promotion Association organized experts from relevant fields to formulate Evidence-based guidelines for rehabilitation treatment after internal fixation of thoracolumbar spine fracture in adults ( version 2025) by integrating evidences from clinical researches and advanced rehabilitation concepts at home and abroad. A total number of 14 recommendations concerning the rehabilitation treatment with multimodal analgesia, psychological intervention, deep vein thrombosis prevention, core muscle and extremity exercise, appropriate use of braces, early weight-bearing, device-aided rehabilitation exercise, neuroregulatory therapy, rehabilitation team were put forward, aiming to standardize the post-operative rehabilitation process following internal fixation, promote the functional recovery, and enhance patients′ quality of life.
