Objective To explore the correlation between thyroid hormones and massive proteinuria in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM). Methods A total of 308 patients with T2DM admitted to 3201 Hospital between June 2020 and June 2025 were selected as the observation group, and another 250 healthy individuals who underwent physical examinations during the same period served as the control group. The thyroid hormones levels [free triiodothyronine (FT3), thyroid stimulating hormone (TSH), and free thyroxine (FT4)] were measured and compared between the two groups. Based on whether 24-hour urinary protein quantification was ≥ 3.5 g, the patients in the observation group were divided into a massive proteinuria group and a non-massive proteinuria group. Multivariate logistic regression analysis was used to analyze the factors influencing the occurrence of massive proteinuria in T2DM patients. Pearson method was applied to analyze the relationship of thyroid hormone indicators with severity indicators of massive proteinuria. Results Compared with the control group and the non-massive proteinuria group, FT3 and FT4 in the massive proteinuria group were lower, while TSH was higher (P<0.05). Multivariate logistic regression analysis suggested that glycosylated hemoglobin (OR=1.113, 95%CI: 1.045-1.185), TSH (OR=1.123, 95%CI: 1.006-1.253), eGFR (OR=0.894, 95%CI: 0.822-0.973), and FT3 (OR=0.898, 95%CI: 0.828-0.973) were related factors for the occurrence of massive proteinuria in T2DM patients (P<0.05). Pearson correlation analysis revealed that FT3 and FT4 levels in T2DM patients were significantly negatively correlated with 24-hour urinary protein quantification (r=-0.514, -0.502), while the level of TSH was positively correlated with 24-hour urinary protein quantification (r=0.486) (P<0.001). Conclusion In T2DM patients, low FT3 and eGFR levels and high TSH and glycosylated hemoglobin levels are related factors for the occurrence of massive proteinuria, and thyroid hormone levels are significantly associated with the severity of massive proteinuria.

Objective:To investigate the effect of infusing different doses of graft cells on viral infections and survival after allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation(allo-HSCT).Methods:Clinical data of 99 patients with hematological diseases who underwent allo-HSCT in Shanxi Bethune Hospital were retrospectively analysed.The proportion of mononuclear cells(MNC)was counted microscopically,the proportions and absolute counts of CD34+cells and lymphocyte subsets(including CD3+T,CD4+T,CD8+T,CD4+CD8+T,B,and NK cells)were detected by flow cytometry,and the infusion dose of each cell types was calculated.The patients were divided into high-dose group and low-dose group based on the median value of the infused cell dose.The effects of different doses of various graft cells on post-transplant viral infections(CMV,EBV,BKV)and survival were analyzed.Results:The low-dose MNC(<7.97 × 108/kg)and high-dose CD4+CD8+T cell(≥3.02 × 106/kg)groups had a higher Epstein-Barr virus(EBV)infection rate(P=0.031;P=0.020).The high-dose CD34+cell group and low-dose CD3+T,CD8+T and natural killer(NK)cell groups showed a trend toward higher EBV infection rates,but the differences were not statitsically significant(P>0.05).There was no significant difference in the rates of EBV infection between the high-dose and low-dose groups of CD4+T and B cells(P>0.05).Multivariate analysis revealed that the doses of MNC and CD4+CD8+T cells in the graft were independent factors influencing EBV infection(P=0.023;P=0.016).The doses of cells in the graft showed no significant impact on CMV and BKV infection,or patient survival(P>0.05).Conclusion:Infusing a lower dose of MNC and a higher dose of CD4+CD8+T cells increases the risk of EBV infection,but does not affect the survival outcome.

BACKGROUND:Emodin has a variety of pharmacological activities such as anti-inflammatory,anti-viral and anti-oxidative stress,and also has a certain protective effect on sepsis-induced myocardial injury,but its mechanism of action is still unclear.OBJECTIVE:To investigate whether emodin can improve myocardial injury in septic mice by promoting autophagy.METHODS:Thirty-two male Kunming mice were divided into sham operation group(n=4),sham operation+emodin group(n=4),model group(n=8),model+emodin group(n=8),and emodin+3-methyladenine group(n=8).The myocardial injury model of septic mice was constructed by cecal ligation and puncture.3-methyladenine(10 mg/kg)was injected intraperitoneally 1 hour before modeling.Emodin(20 mg/kg)was injected intraperitoneally 30 minutes before modeling,and the other groups were injected with the same amount of normal saline at the same time point.Blood and myocardial samples were collected from all mice 24 hours after surgery.ELISA was used to detect the levels of brain natriuretic peptide and cardiac troponin Ⅰ in serum.Western blot assay was used to detect the protein expression of LC3B,Beclin-1,and p62 in myocardial tissue.Hematoxylin-eosin staining was used to observe the pathological changes in myocardial tissue.Ultrasound was used to evaluate the cardiac function of mice.RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:(1)Compared with the sham operation group,there was no significant difference in the levels of serum brain natriuretic peptide,cardiac troponin Ⅰ,and the protein expression of myocardial autophagy proteins LC3Ⅱ/LC3Ⅰ and p62 in the sham operation+emodin group(P>0.05).(2)Compared with the sham operation+emodin group,the levels of serum brain natriuretic peptide and cardiac troponin I were significantly increased in the model group(P<0.05).Compared with the model group,the levels of serum brain natriuretic peptide and cardiac troponin I were decreased in the model+emodin group(P<0.05).(3)Compared with the model group,the expression of LC3Ⅱ/LC3Ⅰ and Beclin-1 protein was increased and the expression of p62 protein was decreased in the myocardial tissue of the model+emodin group(P<0.05).Compared with the model+emodin group,the expression of LC3Ⅱ/LC3Ⅰ and Beclin-1 protein decreased and the expression of p62 protein increased in the emodin+3-methyladenine group(P<0.05).(4)The myocardial fibers in the sham operation group were normal,the myocardial fibers in the model group were disordered with a large number of inflammatory cell infiltration,the myocardial fibers in the model+emodin group were slightly disordered,and some vacuolar changes were observed.The myocardial fibers were disordered,and more inflammatory cell infiltration was observed in the emodin+3-methyladenine group.(5)Compared with the sham operation group,the left ventricular short axis shortening rate and left ventricular ejection fraction were decreased in the model group(P<0.05).Compared with the model group,the left ventricular short axis shortening rate and left ventricular ejection fraction were increased in the model+emodin group(P<0.05).Compared with the model+emodin group,the left ventricular ejection fraction of emodin+3-methyladenine group was decreased(P<0.05),and the left ventricular short axis shortening rate was reduced but not statistically significant(P>0.05).(6)The above results indicate that emodin pretreatment can improve myocardial injury and myocardial dysfunction in septic mice by promoting autophagy.

With the establishment of bio-psycho-social medical model,both social and psychological factors play an important role in the occurrence,development and treatment of diseases.Hypertension is a common chronic multiple disease in China,and patients are often complicated with depression and other e-motional disorders.The interaction between hypertension and depression significantly increases the risk of poor prognosis.Current studies have shown a bidirectional promoting relationship between hypertension and depression,and they have some com-mon pathogenesis.However,the specific mechanism of their co-morbidity has not been fully elucidated.Renin-angiotensin sys-tem(RAS)plays an important role in the regulation of hyperten-sion and depression and other emotions.It is composed of two antagonistic pathways.The balance is maintained by angioten-sin-converting enzyme 2(ACE2).Therefore,this article reviews the relationship and mechanism of RAS in hypertension,depres-sion and comorbid states,in order to provide new treatment ide-as for hypertension and depression.

Objective:To investigate the correlation between the types and quantities of immune cells in the graft and early immune reconstitution after allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation(allo-HSCT)and their influence on clinical prognosis.Methods:The clinical data of 83 patients with hematological diseases who received allo-HSCT in Shanxi Bethune Hospital from September 2020 to June 2023 were retrospectively analyzed.The number of mononuclear cells(MNC),CD34+cells and lymphocyte subsets(including CD3+T,CD3+CD4+T(Th),CD3+CD8+T(Ts),NK cells and B cells)infused into the recipients was counted,and the peripheral blood lymphocytes were detected before conditioning and on days 14,30,60 and 100 post-HSCT.Results:Multivariate analysis showed that the number of MNC in the graft affected the recovery of CD4+T lymphocytes after HSCT,and the number of CD4+T lymphocytes in the graft affected the recovery of NK cells and B cells after HSCT.The patient age,donor sex,stem cell source,degree of HLA matching,use of ATG before HSCT,the occurrence of acute graft-versus-host disease(aGVHD)after HSCT,and viral infection all affect the early cellular immune reconstitution post-HSCT.The number of infused cells had no significant impact on the median engraftment time for neutrophils and platelets after HSCT.Patients with lower numbers of CD3+T,CD4+T and B cells in the graft were more prone to viral infection after HSCT.However,the cells in the graft had no significant effect on disease recurrence or mortality.Conclusion:The recovery rate of lymphocyte count after allo-HSCT varies.The numbers of MNC and CD4+T cells in the graft may be related to the cellular immune reconstitution after HSCT,while the numbers of CD34+,CD3+T,CD8+T,NK and B cells have no significant effect on the cellular immune reconstruction.The numbers of CD3+T,CD4+T and B cells in the graft were negatively correlated with viral infection after HSCT,but the cellular components of the graft have no obvious influence on hematopoietic reconstitution,disease recurrence,death,recurrence-free survival(RFS)and overall survival(OS)after HSCT.
