Objective To explore the epidemiological characteristics of gouty arthritis in Northwest China from 2023 to 2025, and to formulate preventive intervention measures. Methods By retrospectively analyzing the case data of medical institutions in Northwest China from January 2023 to June 2025 (a total of 8 139 cases), the incidence trend and population distribution characteristics of gouty arthritis in this area were analyzed. Multivariate logistic regression analysis was performed to identify risk factors. Results From 2023 to 2025, the prevalence rate of gouty arthritis in adult residents in Northwest China was 3.74% (304/8 139). Among the sites affected by gouty arthritis, the metatarsophalangeal joint accounted for the highest proportion (P<0.05). From the perspective of age distribution, the prevalence rate was the highest in 40-59 years old group (5.90%), followed by 66-80 years old group (4.21%) and >80 years old group (2.75%). The incidence rate in 40-65 years old group was higher than that in the other age groups (P<0.05). High blood uric acid and creatinine, alcohol drinking, obesity, high purine diet, concurrent chronic kidney disease and metabolic syndrome were risk factors affecting gouty arthritis in Northwest China (P<0.05). Conclusion High blood uric acid level, high creatinine level, alcohol drinking, obesity, high purine diet, concurrent chronic kidney disease and metabolic syndrome are risk factors influencing gouty arthritis in Northwest China. Based on the above factors, this study proposes comprehensive prevention strategies from the individual, community and public health levels to provide a scientific basis for reducing the incidence rate of gouty arthritis.

ObjectiveTo investigate the protective effect of liver-targeted fibroblast growth factor 21 (FGF21) overexpression against CCl₄-induced acute liver injury (ALI) and its association with silent information regulator 1/glutathione peroxidase 4 (SIRT1/GPX4) expression and ferroptosis-related markers. MethodsFemale ICR mice (8 weeks old) were randomly divided into Control, CCl₄, adeno-associated virus (AAV)-FGF21, and AAV-FGF21 + CCl4 groups. Liver-targeted FGF21 overexpression was achieved via tail vein injection of AAV8-FGF21 virus with green fluorescent protein (GFP) labeling. ALI was induced by intraperitoneal injection of CCl₄ (0.3 mL/kg), with sample collection at 12 hours. Body weight and liver weight were recorded to calculate the liver weight/body weight. Alanine aminotransferase (ALT) and aspartate aminotransferase (AST) levels were measured using a biochemical analyzer. FGF21 expression in liver tissues was detected by immunofluorescence. Hepatic histopathology was evaluated by HE staining. RT-qPCR was performed to assess mRNA expression of ferroptosis and iron metabolism-related genes (ACSL4, PTGS2, HJV, FPN, GPX4), FGF21, and SIRT1. Protein expression of FGF21, SIRT1, and GPX4 were determined by Western blot. Iron content, malondialdehyde (MDA), glutathione (GSH), and superoxide dismutase (SOD) activity in liver homogenate were quantified using assay kits. ResultsCompared with the Control group, the FGF21 mRNA and protein expression elevated in CCl4 group; serum ALT/AST levels and liver weight/body weigh increased. The HE staining results showed that the liver cell membranes were ruptured. The mRNA levels of ACSL4 and PTGS2, the iron content and MDA levels all increased (P<0.01). The mRNA levels of SIRT1, GPX4, HJV, and FPN, the GSH level and SOD activity all decreased (P<0.05), and the protein levels of SIRT1 and GPX4 both decreased (P<0.05). Compared with the CCl4 group, the serum levels of ALT and AST in the AAV-FGF21 + CCl4 group were decreased (P<0.01), and the liver/body ratio of mice decreased (P<0.01). The results of HE staining showed that the degree of liver injury was alleviated. The mRNA levels of ACSL4 and PTGS2, iron content and MDA level all decreased (P<0.01), while the mRNA levels of SIRT1, GPX4, HJV, FPN, GSH level and SOD activity all increased (P<0.05). The protein levels of SIRT1 and GPX4 both increased (P<0.05). ConclusionFGF21 overexpression is associated with enhanced SIRT1/GPX4 expression and suppression of ferroptosis features, thereby contributing to the alleviation of CCl4-induced ALI.

Objective To compare the effects of non-invasive intermittent oxygen-driven nebulization,non-invasive intermittent air-driven nebulization,and non-invasive simultaneous air-driven nebulization on the dynamic changes of partial pressure of carbon dioxide(PtCO2),pulse oxygen saturation(SpO2),and heart rate during nebulization,as well as the therapeutic effects in patients with acute exacerbation of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease(COPD).Methods A total of 99 patients with acute exacerbation of COPD requiring non-invasive mechanical ventilation and nebulization were randomly divided into a control group,an experimental group one,and an experimental group two,with 33 patients in each group.The control group was given non-invasive intermittent oxygen-driven nebulization,the experimental group one was given non-invasive intermittent air-driven nebulization,and the experimental group two was given non-invasive simultaneous air-driven nebulization.The changes in PtCO2,SpO2,and heart rate at 0 min,5 min,10 min,15 min during nebulization,5 min,10 min,and 15 min after nebulization were recorded.The values of arterial blood gas PaCO2 and PaO2 were recorded every morning from before treatment to the 7th day of treatment.The length of hospital stay in the three groups was also recorded.Results The comparison of PtCO2 during nebulization among the three groups showed that there were statistically significant differences in the main effect of time and the interaction effect of time and group(P<0.001).The PtCO2 values in the control group showed a linear relationship with time(F=10.166,P=0.003),increasing over time;the PtCO2 values in the experimental group one showed a linear relationship with time(F=10.544,P=0.003),decreasing over time;the PtCO2 values in the experimental group two showed a linear rela-tionship with time(F=20.003,P<0.001),decreasing over time.A one-way ANOVA was conducted on the PtCO2 values at each time point in the three groups.The PtCO2 value at 15 min of nebulization in the control group was higher than that in the experimental group one and the experimental group two.There were statistically signifi-cant differences in the difference in PtCO2 before and after nebulization(dPtCO2)between the experimental group one and the experimental group two and the control group(P<0.05).A one-way ANOVA was conducted on the PtCO2 values at each time point during the observation period after nebulization.The results showed that there were statistically significant differences in PtCO2 at 0 min and 5 min after nebulization among the three groups(P<0.05),while there were no statistically significant differences in PtCO2 at 10 min and 15 min after nebulization among the three groups(P>0.05).The comparison of SPO2 during nebulization among the three groups showed that there were statistically significant differences in the interaction effect of time and group(P<0.05).The SPO2 values in the experimental group one decreased over time.The SPO2 values at 10 min and 15 min of nebulization in the control group were higher than those in the experimental group one and the experimental group two.All three groups could improve PaCO2 in arterial blood gas with the treatment days(P<0.05).Conclusions All three nebu-lization treatment methods can achieve good therapeutic effects.However,non-invasive intermittent oxygen-driven nebulization can increase PtCO2 and SPO2 during nebulization;non-invasive intermittent air-driven nebulization can decrease PtCO2 and SPO2 during nebulization;non-invasive simultaneous air-driven nebulization can decrease PtCO2 and maintain stable SPO2 during nebulization.Therefore,non-invasive simultaneous air-driven nebulization is a relatively safer nebulization inhalation method and is worthy of clinical promotion.

OBJECTIVE:
This study aimed to explore the association between body mass index (BMI) and mortality based on the 10-year population-based multicenter prospective study.
METHODS:
A general population-based multicenter prospective study was conducted at four sites in rural China between 2013 and 2023. Multivariate Cox proportional hazards models and restricted cubic spline analyses were used to assess the association between BMI and mortality. Stratified analyses were performed based on the individual characteristics of the participants.
RESULTS:
Overall, 19,107 participants with a sum of 163,095 person-years were included and 1,910 participants died. The underweight (< 18.5 kg/m 2) presented an increase in all-cause mortality (adjusted hazards ratio [ aHR] = 2.00, 95% confidence interval [ CI]: 1.66-2.41), while overweight (≥ 24.0 to < 28.0 kg/m 2) and obesity (≥ 28.0 kg/m 2) presented a decrease with an aHR of 0.61 (95% CI: 0.52-0.73) and 0.51 (95% CI: 0.37-0.70), respectively. Overweight ( aHR = 0.76, 95% CI: 0.67-0.86) and mild obesity ( aHR = 0.72, 95% CI: 0.59-0.87) had a positive impact on mortality in people older than 60 years. All-cause mortality decreased rapidly until reaching a BMI of 25.7 kg/m 2 ( aHR = 0.95, 95% CI: 0.92-0.98) and increased slightly above that value, indicating a U-shaped association. The beneficial impact of being overweight on mortality was robust in most subgroups and sensitivity analyses.
CONCLUSION
This study provides additional evidence that overweight and mild obesity may be inversely related to the risk of death in individuals older than 60 years. Therefore, it is essential to consider age differences when formulating health and weight management strategies.

The amino-terminal pro-C-type natriuretic peptide(NT-proCNP)is a diagnostic inflam-matory marker clinically used for diagnosing bacterial infections.This study aims to establish a phage display library of single-chain variable fragment(scFv)antibodies against canine NT-proC-NP and to screen for scFvs with high binding affinity to NT-proCNP.Initially,NT-proCNP was prepared using prokaryotic expression system and was used to immunize New Zealand White rab-bits.Upon achieving the desired serum titer,total RNA was extracted from the splenocytes of rab-bits and reverse transcribed into cDNA.Using this cDNA as a template,degenerate primers were employed to amplify the genes of the rabbit antibody light chain variable region(VL)and heavy chain variable region(VH).The VL and VH regions were spliced together to form a complete scFv fragment via overlap extension PCR.The scFv was then ligated into the phagemid pComb3XSS and electroporated into competent E.coli TG1 cells to construct a rabbit-derived anti-NT-proCNP scFv immunological library.This library underwent four rounds of enrichment and screening to isolate specific single-chain antibodies.The selected antibody was subsequently ex-pressed in a soluble form within a prokaryotic system,and its immunological activity was evalua-ted.Using phage display technology,this study successfully identified a single-chain antibody scFv-1-CNP with strong antigen-binding activity and genetic sequence characteristics of scFvs,providing a research direction for further exploration of scFv applications in the detection of NT-proCNP.
