AIM:To evaluate the optimal timing of preoperative intravitreal anti vascular endothelial growth factor(VEGF)therapy in proliferative diabetic retinopathy(PDR)using intraoperative fluorescein angiography(IOFA).METHODS:A retrospective case series study was conducted on patients who underwent vitrectomy for PDR with vitreous hemorrhage(VH)at Sichuan Provincial People's Hospital from January 2023 to February 2025. Patients were divided into three groups according to the interval between intravitreal conbercept injection and surgery: Group A(3 d before surgery), Group B(7 d before surgery), and Group C(14 d before surgery). IOFA was used to assess the number and size of retinal neovascularization(NV). Additional data were collected including preoperative best corrected visual acuity(BCVA), vitreous hemorrhage grading, operative time, frequency of intraoperative endodiathermy, duration of high perfusion pressure, vitreoretinal adhesion grade, postoperative BCVA, and central macular thickness(CMT). Multidimensional analyses were performed.RESULTS:This study enrolled a total of 91 patients(94 eyes)with PDR accompanied by vitreous hemorrhage. Among them, Group A consisted of 31 patients(31 eyes; 18 males, 13 females; mean age 53.26±12.38 y), Group B consisted of 34 patients(37 eyes; 21 males, 13 females; mean age 51.61±14.16 y), and Group C consisted of 26 patients(26 eyes; 18 males, 8 females; mean age 51.00±12.02 y), with baseline characteristics comparable among the three groups(all P>0.05). Comparative analysis of NV visualized via IOFA revealed that both the number and size of NVs were significantly lower in Groups B and C than in Group A(all P<0.0167), while no statistically significant differences were observed between Groups B and C(both P>0.05). No significant differences were found among the three groups regarding other intraoperative parameters, including operation time, frequency of electrocoagulation application, duration of high perfusion pressure, or grading of vitreoretinal adhesion(all P>0.05).CONCLUSION:IOFA confirms that preoperative anti-VEGF therapy administered 7 or 14 d before surgery is more effective than a 3 d interval in suppressing retinal NV activity in PDR patients.

A quantitative method for the analysis of the multi-component contents in Marsdenia tenacissimae was established, and the quality differences were evaluated by principal component analysis (PCA), orthogonal partial least squares-discriminant analysis (OPLS-DA), factor analysis (FA) and weighted technique for order preference by similarity to ideal solution (TOPSIS) method. The contents of chlorogenic acid, cryptochlorogenic acid, sinapic acid, tenacigenoside A, tenacissoside G, tenacissoside I, tenacissoside H, drevogenin A, betulinic acid and lupeol were determined by HPLC wavelength switching method. At the same time, the contents of alcohol-soluble extract and total ash were detected. PCA, OPLS-DA and FA methods were used to identify the origin of M. tenacissimae from different producing areas. According to the OPLS-DA model, the index weight was determined to construct the weighted TOPSIS evaluation model. The qualities of M. tenacissimae from different producing areas were analyzed by model scoring results. The contents of 12 indexes in 18 batches of M. tenacissimae varied to different degrees, and the repeatability and accuracy of the test method were satisfactory. PCA analysis divided 18 batches of M. tenacissimae into three categories. OPLS-DA identified five main potential quality markers, including tenacissoside A, tenacissoside I, lupeol, tenacissoside H and chlorogenic acid. The evaluation results of FA and weighted TOPSIS method were consistent, which showed that the quality of M. tenacissimae from Yunnan and Guizhou was better. The established multi-component quantitative analysis method is accurate and reliable, the chemometrics model has strong predictive ability, and the evaluation results of FA and weighted TOPSIS method are scientific and objective. The combination of the four methods can clearly determine the qualities of M. tenacissimae from different producing areas.

ObjectiveTo investigate the physical fitness status and associated factors among preschool children aged 3 to 6 years in Tongzhou District of Beijing, and to provide evidence for promoting physical development in this population. MethodsBased on the 2020 National Physical Fitness Surveillance data for Tongzhou District of Beijing, a total of 416 children were included for standardized physical tests, including morphological, physiological, and fitness indicators, and questionnaire surveys. Independent sample t-tests and ANOVA were used to compare differences in physical indicators across groups, while multivariate linear regression models were applied to analyze influencing factors. ResultsThe comprehensive fitness score of children aged 3 to 6 years old in Tongzhou District of Beijing was (79.98±6.97) points, with an overall physical fitness pass rate of 99.52%. The proportions of excellent, good, and pass grades were 37.50%, 39.90%, and 22.12%, respectively. The average heights for the 3-years-old, 4-years-old, 5-years-old, and 6-years-old groups in Tongzhou District were (102.13±4.24) cm, (107.92±4.66) cm, (115.43±4.70) cm, and (119.16±4.33) cm, respectively. The corresponding average body weights were (16.63±2.46) kg, (18.66±2.54) kg, (21.60±4.02) kg, and (23.46±4.64) kg, respectively. Among children aged 3 to 6 years, the average BMI was (15.95±1.79) kg‧m^-2, body fat percentage was (21.92±4.77)%, resting pulse rate was (95.24±9.70) beats per minute, grip strength was (5.74±2.07) kg, standing long jump distance was (78.12±19.95) cm, sit-and-reach flexibility was (12.25±4.65) cm, continuous two-foot jump time was (6.29±2.55) seconds, 15-meter obstacle shuttle run time was (7.94±1.30) seconds, and balance beam walking time was (5.11±2.25) seconds. Multiple linear regression analyses showed that higher composite fitness scores were significantly positively associated with female gender (b=1.72, 95%CI: 0.42-3.01), aged 4 years old and above (b=2.97, 95%CI: 1.35-4.59), mixed feeding (b=4.16, 95%CI: 1.60-6.72) or breastfeeding (b=3.23, 95%CI: 0.36-6.10) during infancy, taller paternal (b=0.16, 95%CI: 0.02-0.30) and maternal (b=0.25, 95%CI: 0.11-0.39) height (all P<0.05). ConclusionThe physical fitness of children aged 3 to 6 years in Tongzhou District of Beijing is generally favorable, with gender, age, feeding patterns, and genetic factors identified as key correlating factors. Comprehensive strategies are recommended to improve early childhood physical health.

Objective:To investigate the effects of psychosocial factors on early puberty and its sex specific differences.Methods:Bengbu Yuhui Longitudinal Study of Children Development Cohort, consisting of 1 162 students in grades 1-3 (524 girls) and their parents, was established in April 2021 in Bengbu, Anhui Province. The parents were surveyed by questionnaire to collect the information about their children's 56 items of psychosocial factor exposures, including 5 dimensions: major life events, early life adversity, interpersonal/relational conflict, family economic status and daily life troubles. Pubertal growth and physical examinations were conducted by trained professionals at baseline, the 1 st (May 2022), 2 nd (October 2022), 3 rd (May 2023), and 4 th (October 2023) follow-up surveys. In this study, the pubertal development status data were from the 4 th follow-up examination. Fianally, the valid data on pubertal development of 1 105 children were obtained, including the data from 510 girls (46.15%). Multinomial logistic regression model was used to analyze the association between psychosocial factors and early puberty, and the final predictors of early puberty were explored by using four models [least absolute shrinkage and selection operator (LASSO), multiple logistic regression, ridge regression, and Bayesian]. Results:The detection rates of early puberty in boys and girls were 13.60% and 16.30%, respectively. The median of intra-group absolute correlation of psychosocial factor exposure (0.042-0.066) was generally higher than that of inter-group among girls (0.031-0.059), while no similar diference was found among boys. LASSO model showed that moving house, being raised by someone other than parents, sexual abuse, peer conflict, high monthly household income, and high exposure to electronics on school days were predictors of early puberty in girls, while moving house and high monthly household income were the predictors of early puberty in girls in all four models (LASSO, multiple logistic regression, ridge regression, and Bayesian). Among boys, only a transient loss from family was a predictor of early puberty.Conclusion:Early puberty in children can be predicted by psychosocial factors, and there are gender-specific differences.

Objective:To investigate the acute effects of persistent high exposure to atmospheric fine particulate matter (PM 2.5) on residents' outpatient visits for respiratory diseases. Methods:We collected daily outpatient records from 92 hospitals in 13 cities across the Beijing-Tianjin-Hebei region, along with daily PM 2.5, nitrogen dioxide (NO 2), and meteorological data from 2013 to 2018. Five persistent high PM 2.5 exposure scenarios were defined in terms of daily mean PM 2.5 concentrations (>75 μg/m 3 and >150 μg/m 3), duration (≥2 days and ≥3 days), and whether or not there was concurrent exposure to high levels of NO 2 (daily mean NO 2 concentration >50 μg/m 3). A two-stage statistical analysis strategy based on a generalized linear model was applied to conduct a time-series analysis to assess the exposure-response relationship between persistent high PM 2.5 exposure scenarios and residents' outpatient visits for a variety of respiratory diseases, and to estimate excess outpatient visits. Results:During the period, M ( Q1, Q3) PM 2.5 and NO 2 concentrations were 61.2 (42.3, 95.1) μg/m 3 and 40.2 (31.4, 54.4) μg/m 3, respectively, and the daily respiratory disease outpatient visits were 57 (52, 66) cases. When compared with non-permanent high PM 2.5 exposure periods, exposure scenarios with PM 2.5 >75 μg/m 3 and lasting for ≥2 days caused an increased risk of outpatient visits for respiratory diseases by 2.10% (95% CI: 1.44%-2.77%), and resulted in 43 787 (95% CI: 30 025-57 757) excess visits; in this scenario, the concurrent exposure to high levels of NO 2 had a greater acute effect on respiratory disease visits than the absence of exposure to high levels of NO 2 ( P<0.001). The risk of respiratory disease visits increased substantially by 4.41% (95% CI: 3.15%-5.68%) when the daily mean PM 2.5 concentration exceeded 150 μg/m 3 for ≥2 days. Subgroup disease analyses showed that scenarios with daily mean PM 2.5 concentrations exceeding 75 μg/m 3 for ≥3 days caused a significant increase in the risk of lower respiratory tract infections, chronic lower respiratory disease, and asthma visits. Conclusions:Sustained persistent high PM 2.5 exposure increases the risk of outpatient visits for various respiratory diseases; concurrent exposure to high concentrations of NO 2 leads to a greater risk of visiting the clinic, suggesting that the prevention and control of PM 2.5 pollution should be synchronized with the control of mobile source emissions, to synergistically manage the compound pollution of PM 2.5 and NO 2 in the atmosphere.

Paclitaxel(PTX)is a first-line chemotherapy drug for breast cancer,but its resistance issues significantly impact clinical treatment efficacy.Fucosylation,especially core fucosylation,is closely related to tumor chemoresistance,resulting in poor chemotherapy responses and poor prognosis in patients.In this study,we investigated the effect and mechanism of the fucosylation inhibitor 2-fluorofucose(2-F-Fuc)on the chemosensitivity of paclitaxel-resistant breast cancer MCF-7/PTX cells.The drug resistanceindex(RI)of MCF-7/PTX cells was 8.49 by MTT assays.Western blotting,real-time PCR,enzyme-linked immu-nosorbent assay(ELISA)and Lens Culinaris Agglutinin(LCA)lectin imprinting showed that compared with MCF-7 cells,the expression of FUT8,MDR1and core fucosylation in MCF-7/PTX cells was high.Western blotting showed that 2-F-Fuc had a significant inhibitory effect on the growth of MCF-7/PTX cells,and the expression levels of FUT8 and MDR1 were significantly down-regulated after 2-F-Fuc treatment,and the down-regulation was more pronounced in the PTX and 2-F-Fuc combination group(P＜0.05).Compared to the control,expression of PCNA in MCF-7/PTX cells in the PTX and the 2-F-Fuc group were down-regulated,and the apoptosis-related proteins,such as cleaved caspase-3 and Bax/Bcl-2 were in-creased.The level of p-PI3K and p-AKT were down-regulated,and the changes in the combination of 2-F-Fuc and PTX were more robust(P＜0.05).The above results showed that the core fucosylation level of MCF-7/PTX cells was significantly increased,and 2-F-Fuc could reduce the core fucosylation level of MCF-7/PTX cells by inhibiting the expression of FUT8,and enhance the sensitivity of drug-resistant cells to PTX,which may correlate with the downregulation of PI3K/AKT signaling pathway proteins.

Objective To investigate the role of autophagy involving the protein kinase B/sterol regulatory element binding protein 1(Akt/SREBP-1)signaling pathway in diabetic retinopathy(DR).Methods DR rat models were estab-lished via the intraperitoneal injection of streptozotocin.Rats were randomized into control(normal rats)and DM-DR groups(DR rats).The expression of autophagy-related proteins(autophagy markers LC3-Ⅱ and LC3-Ⅰ,autophagy specific substrate p62,and autophagy-related protein Beclin1)in rat retinas was compared between the two groups.Rats were di-vided into control B(normal rats injected with 1 μL saline),DR(DR rats injected with 1 μL saline),DR+si-NC(DR rats injected with 1 μL of the negative control siRNA),and DR+si-SREBP-1 groups(DR rats injected with 1 μL of the SREBP-1 siRNA).All interventions were given 1 day before modeling and 8 weeks after modeling.Akt/SREBP-1 expression and retinal ganglion cell(RGC)survival were compared among groups.R28 rat retinal precursor cells were classified into con-trol C(normal glucose,24 h),HG(high glucose,24 h),HG+si-NC(si-NC transfection+high glucose,24 h),and HG+si-SREBP-1 groups(si-SREBP-1 transfection+high glucose,24 h).The expression of autophagy-related proteins and au-tophagosome-lysosome fusion were compared among groups.Western blot and immunofluorescence were used to examine the expression of Akt,SREBP-1 and autophagy-related proteins.Results The relative expression of Beclin1 and p62 pro-teins and the LC3-Ⅱ/Ⅰ ratio in the DM-DR group were significantly higher than those in the control group 1 and 8 weeks after modeling(all P＜0.001).Compared with the control B group,the DR group exhibited elevated SREBP-1 and reduced Akt protein levels 1 and 8 weeks after modeling(all P＜0.01).RGC counts in the DR and DR+si-NC groups were significantly lower than those in the control B group(P＜0.001).The RGC count in the DR+si-SREBP-1 group was significantly higher than that in the DR+si-NC group(P＜0.001).Compared with those in the control C group,the Beclin1 and p62 protein levels and the LC3-Ⅱ/Ⅰ ratio were increased in the HG and HG+si-NC groups(all P＜0.01).Compared with those in the HG+si-NC group,the Beclin1 and p62 protein levels and the LC3-Ⅱ/Ⅰ ratio were reduced in the HG+si-SREBP-1 group(all P＜0.05).The HG and HG+si-NC groups showed significantly more LC3B/LAMP1 dual-positive puncta than the control C group(P＜0.001).The HG+si-SREBP-1 group showed significantly less LC3B/LAMP1 dual-positive puncta than the HG+si-NC group(P＜0.001).Conclusion SREBP-1 knockdown enhances autophagic flux in early DR to attenuate RGC loss.Thus,the Akt/SREBP-1 axis represents a promising therapeutic target for DR.

Objective To explore the possible mechanism underlying the role of forkhead box A1 circular RNA(circ-FAT1)regulating pericyte pyroptosis in diabetic retinopathy(DR).Methods The experiment was divided into two parts.Firstly,thirty male C57BL/6J mice(totaling 60 eyes)were randomly divided into normal,DR and circFAT1 overex-pression groups,with 10 mice in each group.Fasting plasma glucose(FPG)was detected by a glucometer.The serum lev-els of total cholesterol(TC)and triacylglycerol(TG)were measured by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay(ELISA)kits.Hematoxylin and eosin(HE)staining was used to examine the pathological structure of mouse retina.Reverse tran-scription-quantitative polymerase chain reaction(RT-qPCR)was used to detect the mRNA expression of circFAT1 in retinal tissues.The relative protein expression levels of NOD-like receptor protein 3(NLRP3),Caspase-1 and porin D(GSDMD)in the retina of mice were detected by Western blot.Secondly,retinal perivascular cells were extracted from 5 C57BL/6J mice(totaling 10 eyes)and divided into control,high glucose and circFAT1 overexpression+high glucose groups.The protein expression levels of NLRP3,Caspase-1 and GSDMD in pericytes were detected by Western blot.ELISA kits were used to measure the content of interleukin-18(IL-18)and interleukin-1β(IL-1β)in pericytes.Results(1)Compared with those in the normal group,the levels of FPG,serum TC and TG were increased while the relative expression level of circFAT1 mRNAs in the retinal tissue was decreased in the DR group(all P＜0.05).Compared with the DR group,the circ-FAT1 overexpression group showed decreased levels of FPG,serum TC and TG(all P＜0.05),and increased relative ex-pression levels of circFAT1 mRNAs in the retinal tissue(P＜0.05).The relative expression levels of NLRP3,Caspase-1 and GSDMD proteins in the retinal tissue of the DR Group were higher than those in the normal group(all P＜0.05).The rela-tive expression levels of NLRP3,Caspase-1 and GSDMD proteins in the retinal tissue of the circFAT1 overexpression group were lower than those in the DR group(all P＜0.05).(2)Compared with those in the control group,the relative expres-sion levels of NLRP3,Caspase-1,and GSDMD proteins and the content of IL-18 and IL-1 β in the pericyte of the high glucose group were increased(all P＜0.05).The relative expression of NLRP3,Caspase-1 and GSDMD proteins and the content of IL-18 and IL-1 β in the pericyte of the circFAT1 overexpression+high glucose group were lower than those in the high glu-cose group(all P＜0.05).Conclusion Overexpression of circFAT1 can improve DR by inhibiting pericyte pyroptosis.
