Objective: To characterize perioperative dynamic changes in immune-cell phenotypes and inflammatory cytokines in patients undergoing CPB (cardiopulmonary bypass) cardiac surgery, and to explore their associations with postoperative outcomes. Methods: In this prospective cohort study, 120 adult patients who underwent elective cardiac surgery under CPB at West China Hospital from May 2022 to March 2023 were enrolled. Perioperative immune-cell phenotypes and concentrations of 40 inflammation-related cytokines were measured. The primary outcomes were the sequential organ failure assessment (SOFA) score at 24 h after surgery and ΔSOFA (the peak SOFA score within 48 h after surgery minus the preoperative SOFA score). Secondary outcomes included major adverse cardiovascular events (MACE), acute kidney injury (AKI), respiratory failure, severe liver injury, and infection. Results: The mean age of enrolled patients was 57±10 years. Of these, 52% (62/120) were male and 90% (108/120) underwent valve surgery. During the rewarming to the end of CPB, neutrophil counts rapidly increased (7.39×10 /L vs preoperative 3.07×10 /L, P<0.001), with significant upregulation of CD11b (7.30×10 /L vs preoperative 3.05×10 /L, P<0.001) and CD54 (7.15×10 /L vs preoperative 2.99×10 /L, P<0.001). Lymphocyte counts increased at the end of CPB (1.75×10 /L vs preoperative 1.12×10 /L, P<0.001) but decreased significantly at 24 h after surgery (0.59×10 /L vs preoperative 1.12×10 /L, P<0.001). Plasma analysis showed that multiple pro-inflammatory cytokines increased during CPB and remained elevated up to 24 h after surgery; five chemokines and the anti-inflammatory cytokine IL-10 peaked at the end of CPB. The SOFA score increased from 1 (1, 2) preoperatively to 7 (5, 10) at 24 h after surgery, with a ΔSOFA of 6 (4, 8). Within 30 days after surgery, 48 patients (40.0%) developed AKI, 17 (14.2%) developed infection, 4 (3.3%) developed severe liver injury, 3 (2.5%) developed respiratory failure, and 3 (2.5%) experienced MACE. During the 2-year follow-up, 8 patients (6.7%) experienced MACE and 5 (4.2%) died. Conclusion: Multi-organ dysfunction is common after cardiac surgery under CPB (median ΔSOFA, 6), accompanied by perioperative activation of multiple immune-cell subsets and upregulation of pro-inflammatory, anti-inflammatory, and chemotactic mediators. This study provides data-driven evidence and research clues for further investigation of the associations between CPB-related immune perturbations and postoperative organ dysfunction and clinical outcomes.

OBJECTIVE To study the protective effect and potential mechanism of chikusetsu saponin Ⅳ a （chsⅣ） on renal function in diabetic nephropathy （DN） model rats. METHODS DN rat model was established by high-fat diet combined with streptozotocin injection. Thirty-six model rats were randomly divided into model group （i.g. administration of normal saline， high-fat diet）， chsⅣ low-dose and high-dose groups （i.g. administration of 90， 180 mg/kg chsⅣ， high-fat diet）， with 12 rats in each group. Additionally， 10 normal rats were set as the control group （i.g. administration of normal saline， regular diet）. From the 5th to the 12th week after streptozotocin injection， they were given intragastric administration of relevant drug or normal saline， once a day. After the last medication， the levels of fasting blood glucose， fasting insulin， blood urea nitrogen， serum creatinine and urine protein as well as the levels of reduced glutathione （GSH）， superoxide dismutase （SOD） and malondialdehyde （MDA） in renal tissues were measured. Additionally， the insulin resistance index was calculated. Hematoxylin-eosin， periodic acid-Schiff， and Masson staining techniques were employed to examine the histopathological alterations in the renal tissue. The expressions of Notch signaling pathway-related proteins in renal tissue were detected by immunohistochemical staining and Western blot methods. RESULTS Compared with model group， the histomorphological of renal tissues in the chsⅣ low- and high-dose groups were significantly improved， with significant decreases in renal histological scores， mesangial expansion index， and glomerulosclerosis scores （ P ＜0.05）； the levels of fasting blood glucose， fasting insulin， blood urea nitrogen， serum creatinine， urine protein and homeostasis model assessment for insulin resistance， as well as MDA content， the expression levels of Notch1， Notch intracellular domain， hairy and enhancer of Split 1 and Delta-like protein 1 in renal tissue were all significantly decreased （ P ＜0.05）. The levels of GSH and SOD in renal tissue were significantly elevated （ P ＜0.05）. Moreover， the improvement in these indicators was significantly more pronounced in the chsⅣ high-dose group compared to the chsⅣ low-dose group （ P ＜0.05）. CONCLUSIONS ChsⅣ can ameliorate renal pathological damage and functional impairment in DN rats. Its underlying mechanisms include restoration of glucose homeostasis and insulin sensitivity， attenuation of renal oxidative stress， and suppression of aberrant Notch signaling pathway activation.

Objective: To investigate the factors affecting cognition and vaccination willingness to receive human papilloma virus (HPV) vaccine among male university students, so as to provide a basis for formulating health education and promotion strategies for HPV vaccination in males. Methods: From March to June 2025, a convenience sampling method was used to recruit full-time male undergraduate students from 23 universities in Zhejiang Province. Self-administered questionnaires were employed to collect information on participants' basic demographics, sexual behaviors, knowledge of HPV and HPV vaccines, and willingness to receive HPV vaccination. Multivariable logistic regression model was used to analyze the influencing factors for vaccination willingness to receive HPV vaccine among male university students. Results: A total of 402 male university students were surveyed, with a mean age of (20.20±1.95) years. Among them, 65 participants reported having engaged in sexual behavior, accounting for 16.17%. Additionally, 192 students perceived themselves to be at relatively high risk of HPV infection, accounting for 47.76%. Knowledge of HPV and the HPV vaccine was reported by 227 participants, corresponding to an awareness rate of 56.47%. Willingness to receive HPV vaccine was expressed by 242 individuals, reflecting a vaccination willingness rate of 60.20%. Multivariable logistic regression analysis showed that male university students who were medical majors (OR = 3.404, 95% CI: 1.396-8.301), had engaged in sexual behavior (OR = 2.341, 95% CI: 1.102-4.970), perceived themselves to be at higher risk of HPV infection (OR = 1.631, 95% CI: 1.041-2.557), recognized the necessity of HPV vaccination for males (OR = 8.955, 95% CI: 4.705-17.044), and had been exposed to HPV vaccine promotion activities in their university (OR = 2.277, 95% CI: 1.320-3.926) showed a higher willingness to receive HPV vaccine. Conversely, those who had concerns about vaccine safety (OR = 0.510, 95% CI: 0.292-0.890), were unaware of the HPV vaccine appointment process (OR = 0.400, 95% CI: 0.232-0.690), or expressed concerns about the cost of the vaccine (OR = 0.560, 95% CI: 0.322-0.976) exhibited a lower willingness to be vaccinated. Conclusions Male university students in Zhejiang Province demonstrated a relatively low level of cognition regarding HPV and HPV vaccine, yet expressed a comparatively high willingness to receive HPV vaccine. Factors affecting vaccination willingness to receive HPV vaccine among male university students included cognition of HPV and HPV vaccine, self-perceived risk of HPV infection, concerns about vaccine safety, awareness of the vaccine appointment process, and considerations regarding vaccine cost.

Objective To systematically evaluate the factors that promote and hinder exercise in frail older adults,and to provide references for the formulation of exercise intervention programs.Methods We searched PubMed,Web of Science,Embase,CINAHL,Cochrane library,CNKI,Wanfang,VIP database,and China Biomedical Literature Database for qualitative studies on exercise facilitators and hindrances in frail older adults,and the search time period was from the establishment of the databases to September 1,2024.The quality of the literature was evaluated using the Joanna Brigg Institute Australian Centre for Evidence-Based Health Care Quality Assessment Criteria for Qualitative Research(2016),and the results were integrated by integrating methods.Results A total of 18 studies were included,and 72 research results were extracted,and 10 categories were summarized.The final synthesis included 2 integrated results:the facilitators included personal exercise motivation,physical and psychological benefits,positive interpersonal interactions,multiple social support systems and person-centred exercise programme;the impediments included underlying diseases and somatic functional limitations,negative psychological status,low health literacy,family role conflicts and limits of the environment.Conclusion Exercise for frail older adults is affected by a variety of factors.Healthcare professionals should improve the positive perception of exercise for frail older people and help them overcome psychological barriers;establish an all-round support system to enhance the sense of social contact of the frail elderly;formulate a personalised exercise programme with a human-centred approach to enhance the motivation of the frail elderly.

Objective To observe the effects of 3 different nutritional support modes of nasogastric tube nutrition,nasoenteric tube nutrition and nasoenteric tube combined with nasogastric tube nutrition on the biliary-related indices of critically ill patients.Methods The observational research method was conducted,the patients admitted to the department of intensive care unit(ICU)of Qingdao Hospital,University of Health and Rehabilitation Sciences(Qingdao Municipal Hospital)from June 2023 to May 2024 serving as the subjects of the study.The subjects were divided into three groups,namely the nasogastric tube group(indwelling nasogastric tube for enteral nutrition),the nasoenteric tube group(indwelling nasoenteric tube for enteral nutrition),and the mixed nutrition group(indwelling nasoenteric tube combined with naso-gastric tube for enteral nutrition)according to the different modes of enteral nutrition given.The clinical data of the patients was collected,including gender,age,previous underlying diseases,nutritional risk screening 2002(NRS2002)score,acute physiology and chronic health evaluationⅡ(APACHEⅡ),gallbladder volume,data on laboratory-related indices,and prognosis during hospitalisation.Compare the differences between the observed indicators and their change values before and after the initiation of enteral nutrition within each group;analyse the correlation between gallbladder volume and other observed indicators using Spearman's correlation analysis;screen the influencing factors of gallbladder volume using univariate regression analysis;screen the influencing factors of ICU patients'survival during hospitalisation using multifactorial Logistic regression analysis,and plot the receiver operator characteristic curve(ROC curve)of the subjects to analyse the predictive value of each influencing factor on patients'prognosis.Results A total of 141 patients who met the inclusion criteria were included in the study,comprising 54 cases in the nasogastric tube group,38 cases in the nasoenteric tube group,and 49 cases in the mixed nutrition group.Of the patients who survived during ICU hospitalization,105 survived,while 36 died,mortality was 25.53%.① No statistically significant differences were observed in the comparison of gender,age,previous underlying disease,NRS2002 score,and APACHEⅡscore among the enrolled groups.② A comparative analysis was conducted on the biliary-related indexes of the nasogastric tube and nasoenteric tube groups before and after the initiation of enteral nutrition.The results revealed no statistically significant differences between the two groups.On the 7th day of enteral nutrition initiation,the gallbladder volume of the nasoenteric tube group was found to be significantly larger than the gallbladder volume on the 1st day(cm3:28.00±6.36 vs.25.20±4.75,P<0.05).In the mixed nutrition group,the gallbladder volume on the initiation of enteral nutrition on day 7 was significantly smaller than that on the 1st day of initiating enteral nutrition(cm3:25.03±4.69 vs.28.68±5.96,P<0.05).③A comparative analysis was conducted among the three groups,revealing significant variations in the values of alanine aminotransferase(ALT),aspartate aminotransferase(AST),total bilirubin(TBil),indirect bilirubin(IBil),alkaline phosphatase(ALP),γ-glutamyltranspeptidase(γ-GT),and gallbladder volume across the groups.From 1-7 days following the initiation of enteral nutrition,the bile-related indexes in the nasoenteric tube group exhibited an increasing trend,while the bile-related indexes in the mixed nutrition group demonstrated a decreasing trend.④ Spearman correlation analysis showed that gallbladder volume was significantly and positively correlated with AST,ALT,ALP,and γ-GT(r values of 0.398,0.299,0.242,and 0.262,respectively,all P<0.01).⑤ Multivariate Logistic regression analysis demonstrated that the initiation of enteral nutrition for 7 days was associated with a significant advantage,as indicated by an odds ratio(OR)of 1.031,with a 95%confidence interval(95%CI)of 1.004-1.058,and a P value was 0.024.Furthermore,the initiation of enteral nutrition for 7 d AST(OR=1.031,95%CI was 1.004-1.058,P=0.024),TBil(OR=1.187,95%CI was 1.039-1.355,P=0.011),and IBil(OR=0.707,95%CI was 0.542-0.921,P=0.010),and γ-GT(OR=0.985,95%CI was 0.972-0.999,P=0.034)were all factors affecting the survival of ICU patients during hospitalisation.Conclusions In the context of patients receiving intensive care,the prolonged utilisation of nasoenteric feeding tubes for a duration exceeding seven days has been observed to potentially induce an augmentation in gallbladder volume and an elevation in biliary-related indices,including ALT,AST,ALP,and γ-GT.The concomitant administration of nasogastric feeding,grounded in the foundation of simple nasoenteric tube nutrition,has been demonstrated to result in a reduction of these biliary-related indices to a certain extent.

Objective:To investigate gut microbiota differences between individuals with and without colorectal adenoma(CRA)and to identify gut microbes associated with CRA.Methods:This cross-sectional study analyzed the gut microbiota of 100 patients with CRA and 68 individuals without CRA(aged 40-75 years)who underwent colonoscopies between March 2021 and March 2022 at Tianjin Nankai Hospital.Fecal samples were sequenced for the V3-V4 region of the bacterial 16S rRNA gene using the Illumina NovaSeq platform.Results:Compared to the non-CRA group,the CRA group exhibited reduced relative abundances of identified and unidentified Lachnospiraceae,with increased Faecalibacterium and Streptococcus.In the non-CRA group,the relative abundances of Coprococcus,unidentified Clostridiaceae,and Clostridium were higher.LEfSe analysis revealed significant enrichment of Gammaproteobacteria,Proteobacteria,Enterobacteriales,and Faecalibacterium in the CRA group,while the non-CRA group was enriched for Moraxellaceae,Acinetobacter,and Anaerostipes.Conclusions:These findings suggest a discernible disparity in the gut microbiota structure between CRA patients and individuals without adenoma.The enrichment of potential pathogenic taxa,such as Faecalibacterium and Streptococcus,in the CRA group suggests a possible association with adenoma development.

Objective:To investigate the effects of wheat-grain moxibustion at the Guanyuan point on testosterone(T)synthe-sis and the hypothalamic-pituitary-gonadal(HPG)axis in naturally aged mice.Methods:We fed 40 twelve-month-old SPF male C57BL/6J mice with a normal diet for 3 months,randomized them into a moxibustion and an aged group of an equal number,and se-lected 7 four-month-old ones as young controls.We treated the animals of the moxibustion group by wheat-grain moxibustion at the Guanyuan point,once 5 moxibustion sticks,qd,5 times a week,and fed those of the aged group normally,all for 12 weeks.After treatment,we obtained the testicular index of the mice,observed the histomorphology of the testis tissue by HE staining,measured the contents of T in the testis,gonadotropin-releasing hormone(GnRH)in the hypothalamus and total T(tT),free T(fT),luteinizing hormone(LH)and follicle-stimulating hormone(FSH)in the serum by ELISA,and determined the expressions of silence information regulator-1(SIRT1),P53,glutathione peroxidase(GPX4)and cholesterol side-chain?cleavage enzym e(CYP11A1)in the testis by Western blot.Results:Compared with the young controls,the mice in the aged group showed obviously losing and dull hair,energy declination,loose structure of the spermatogenic tubule with different degrees of cell loss and rupture,reduced testicular index,and ev-ident aging phenotype.In comparison with the aged mice,the animals of the moxibustion group were fairly energetic and exhibited dis-tinct structure of the spermatogenic tubules,orderly arranged and highly differentiated cells at all levels,significantly increased T lev-el,up-regulated expressions of SIRT1,GPX4 and CYP11 A1,and down-regulated expression of P53 in testis tissue,and elevated levels of GnRH,FSH,LH,tT and fT in the HPG axis.Conclusion:Wheat-grain moxibustion at the Guanyuan point protects testosterone synthesis in the testis tissue of naturally aged mice,promotes negative feedback regulation of the HPG axis,and improves low testoster-one.
