Aim To detect the non-coding RNA(ncRNA)expression profile of neuroglioma cells via whole transcriptome sequencing,establish the ceRNA network and reveal the molecular mechanism of ncRNA participating in the inhibition of neuroglioma cell prolif-eration by melatonin.Methods Neuroglioma cells were intervened with by 0,2,4,6 and 8 mmol·L-1 melatonin for 24,48 and 72 h,and the inhibitory effect of melatonin on cell proliferation was detected via CCK-8;after the intervention of 0 and 4 mmol·L-1 melatonin to U251 cells for 24 h,differentially ex-pressed miRNA(DEmiRNA),lncRNA(DElncRNA)and mRNA(DEmRNA)were detected through whole transcriptome sequencing,along with GO and KEGG enrichment analysis of DEmRNA;the ceRNA network was constructed,and the key gene expression of ceR-NA was verified through qRT-PCR.Results Melato-nin exerts a time-dose-dependent inhibitory effect on the proliferation of neuroglioma cells;a total of 5049 DEmRNA,635 DElncRNA and 146 DEmiRNA in 0 and 4 mmol·L-1 melatonin groups were screened out via whole transcriptome sequencing;DEmRNAs were mainly enriched in cancer-related signaling pathways,such as ferroptosis,mTOR signaling pathway,FoxO signaling pathway and cell cycle;the ceRNA network included 4 lncRNAs,3 miRNAs and 48 mRNAs.As verified through real-time PCR,the expressions of hsa-miR-129-5p,hsa-miR-362-5p,LINC00707 and SLC16A1-AS1 of U251 cells were consistent with the sequencing results,and the gene expression of U87 cells was basically consistent with the sequencing re-sults.Conclusions Melatonin affects cancer-related signaling pathways through the differential expression of ncRNA so as to inhibit the proliferation of U251 cells;the ceRNA network composed of LINC00707,SLC16A1-AS1,hsa-miR-129-5p and hsa-miR-362-5p may take a part in the molecular mechanism of melato-nin in inhibiting neuroglioma cell proliferation.

Objective:To analyze the association between daily physical activity patterns and dyslipidemia among people receiving physical examination aged 40-65 years.Methods:This cross-sectional study consecutively enrolled 864 participants aged 40-65 years and met the inclusion and exclusion criteria who underwent health check-ups at the Physical Examination Center of Fuquan First People′s Hospital from March to November in 2022. The data of general characteristics, physical activity, physical examination findings, and lipid profiles were collected. The daily physical activity patterns were identified using K-means clustering analysis. The unconditional binary logistic regression was employed to explore the associations between these activity patterns and dyslipidemia, followed by subgroup analyses.Results:The physical activity of the 864 study participants (517 males and 347 females) included in the analysis was divided into 4 patterns (G1: low physical activity; G2: active commuting; G3: housework; G4: leisure exercise). Using G1 as a reference, after adjusting for confounders, G4 was negatively associated with low high density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL-C) ( OR=0.37, 95% CI: 0.14-1.00) ( P=0.05). In the male, G3 was negatively associated with dyslipidemia ( OR=0.44, 95% CI: 0.21-0.93) and low HDL-C ( OR=0.25, 95% CI: 0.10-0.68) (both P<0.05). In the subjects aged 50 years and above, G2 was negatively associated with dyslipidemia ( OR=0.52, 95% CI: 0.30-0.90), hypertriglyceridemia ( OR=0.50, 95% CI: 0.28-0.90) and low HDL-C ( OR=0.47, 95% CI: 0.24-0.91) (all P<0.05). In those who never or occasionally stayed up late, G2 was negatively associated with hypertriglyceridemia ( OR=0.31, 95% CI: 0.13-0.75) ( P<0.05); in those who stayed up late often, G4 was negatively associated with dyslipidemia ( OR=0.33, 95% CI: 0.13-0.85) and low HDL-C ( OR=0.19, 95% CI: 0.04-0.84) (both P<0.05). In the centrally obese population, G2 was negatively associated with dyslipidemia ( OR=0.55, 95% CI: 0.35-0.88) and hypertriglyceridemia ( OR=0.54, 95% CI: 0.33-0.86) (both P<0.05). Conclusions:Association between different physical activity patterns and dyslipidemia varied among adults aged 40-65 years undergoing health check-ups. Leisure-time exercise is associated with a reduced risk of dyslipidemia, while household activities also emerges as a beneficial factor linked to lower dyslipidemia risk particularly in the male population.

Objective:To report the nationwide surveillance results of pathogenic profiles and antimicrobial resistance patterns of Gram-positive bloodstream infections in China in 2023.Methods:The clinical isolates of Gram-posttive bacteria from blood cultures were collected in member hospitals of National Bloodstream Infection Bacterial Resistant Investigation Collaborative System（BRICS）during January to December 2023.

Vertebral refracture following percutaneous vertebral augmentation (PVA) is commonly seen in elderly patients with osteoporotic thoracolumbar compression fractures (OTLCF). It can lead to recurrent pain, loss of vertebral height, progression of kyphosis, and even neurological dysfunction, significantly impairing patients′ quality of life. Current diagnosis and treatment face multiple challenges, including high misdiagnosis rate, difficulty in choosing between surgical and non-surgical treatment options, lack of standardized surgical protocols, interference from intralesional bone cement during procedures, inadequate stability of internal fixation in osteoporotic bone, and suboptimal compliance of anti-osteoporotic therapy. Establishing a standardized diagnostic and therapeutic framework is urgently needed. To standardize the management process and improve outcomes for vertebral refractures after PVA in elderly OTLCF patients, Spinal Trauma Group of the Orthopedic Branch of Chinese Medical Doctor Association organized experts in the field to develop Guideline for the diagnosis and treatment of vertebral refracture after percutaneous vertebral augmentation in elderly patients with osteoporotic thoracolumbar compression fractures ( version 2025), based on current literature and clinical experience, and adhering to principles of scientific rigor and clinical applicability. A total of 11 recommendations were proposed, encompassing diagnosis, treatment, and rehabilitation of vertebral refracture after PVA in elderly patients with OTLCF, aiming to provide a foundation for a standardized management.
