Background: Apolipoprotein A-I (ApoA-I) is a key cardioprotective lipoprotein. Nevertheless, it remains unclear how ApoA-I relates to ischemic risk across glucose metabolism statuses in patients with coronary artery disease (CAD). This study investigated whether glucose metabolism status influences the association between ApoA-I and ischemic risk in CAD patients. Methods: This cohort study included 10,724 consecutive CAD patients undergoing percutaneous coronary intervention, who were classified into diabetes mellitus (DM), pre-DM, and normal glucose regulation (NGR) groups. The primary clinical endpoint was major adverse cardiac and cerebrovascular event (MACCE), defined as a composite of all-cause death, myocardial infarction, revascularization, and stroke. Results: Of the 10,232 patients ultimately included, 2,139 (20.9%) experienced MACCE over 5 years. A significant interaction was observed between ApoA-I levels and glucose metabolism status (P for interaction=0.041). In the DM group, an L-shaped association between ApoA-I and MACCE was found, with lower ApoA-I levels linked to a higher risk of MACCE (P for non-linearity= 0.044). Multivariate Cox regression analysis showed that patients in the lowest quintile of ApoA-I had a 1.327-fold increased risk of MACCE compared to those at the lowest risk (hazard ratio, 1.327; 95% confidence interval, 1.097 to 1.604). However, no significant association was observed in the pre-DM or NGR groups (both P>0.05). Conclusion This large-scale, 5-year follow-up study is the first to demonstrate that lower ApoA-I levels are associated with increased MACCE risk in CAD patients with DM, highlighting the potential value of ApoA-I in risk stratification and as a therapeutic target.

Objective:To design and develop a molecular imaging probe of 68Ga-labeled bombesin (BBN) analogue, 68Ga-1, 4, 7, 10-tetraazacyclododecane-1, 4, 7, 10-tetraacetic acid (DOTA)-polyethylene glycol (PEG) 4-BBN, and investigate its potential to target prostate cancer with high expression of gastrin-releasing peptide receptor (GRPR) while minimizing uptake in pancreatic tissue. Methods:Based on the amino acid sequence of BBN peptides, the precursor DOTA-PEG 4-BBN was designed and prepared, followed by labeling with 68Ga and conducting to quality control analysis. The tumor uptake of 68Ga-DOTA-PEG 4-BBN was assessed by microPET/CT imaging on tumor-bearing nude mice models with PC3 of high GRPR expression or HT29 of low GRPR expression (3 mice per group). 68Ga-DOTA-PEG 4-BBN microPET/CT imaging was also performed on 6 tumor-bearing nude mice models with PC3, among which 3 mice were treated with gastrin-releasing peptide antagonist 1 h prior to injection of the tracer (blocked group). After imaging, the ex vivo tissues of 3 PC3 tumor-bearing nude mice of the non-blocked group were examined for radioactivity counting to evaluation the biodistribution of 68Ga-DOTA-PEG 4-BBN, and the percentage injected dose per gram of tissue (%ID/g) was calculated. Independent-sample t test was used for data analysis. Results:The synthesis of 68Ga-DOTA-PEG 4-BBN took 40 min, with the radiochemical yield of 50%-60% (no decay correction) and the radiochemical purity of over 95%. After incubation in the serum at 37 ℃ for 4 h, the radiochemical purity remained more than 95%. The microPET/CT imaging results indicated that the uptake in the PC3 tumor was 3.2 times higher than the uptake in the tumor after GRPR blockade ((1.34±0.24) vs (0.42±0.03) %ID/g; t=5.47, P=0.005). After the injection of 68Ga-DOTA-PEG 4-BBN at 1 h and following imaging for 15 min, the PC3 tumor-bearing nude mice models of the non-blocked group showed that the pancreatic uptake ((0.150±0.058) %ID/g) was significantly lower than that in kidneys, lungs and liver ((9.452±0.234), (0.720±0.041), (1.572±0.213) %ID/g) with a profound statistical distinction ( t values: 11.28-53.02, all P<0.001). The tumor/pancreas uptake ratio could reach 16.92 in the tumor-bearing nude mice models with high GRPR expression. Conclusion:A novel molecular imaging probe 68Ga-DOTA-PEG 4-BBN demonstrates specific recognition of tumors with high GRPR expression while exhibiting low uptake in the pancreas, which shows its potential in prostate cancer molecular imaging.

Objective:To investigate the application of digital teaching system in the teaching of onlay abutment teeth preparation for trainees receiving standardized residency training of stomatology (abbreviated as "resident trainees").Methods:The digital simulation teaching system unit was established by using the tissue morphology memory characteristics of 3Shape Trios oral scanner and Geomagic Control X 3D imaging design software. Eighteen resident trainees from the Daping Hospital were randomly divided into two groups, nine in the control group, preparing the onlay resin tooth model independently after taking the routine PPT + demonstration operation teaching; the other nine in the test group, preparing onlay model after learning digitization teaching system unit. All resident trainees prepared on three models respectively. After the teaching, the amounts of preparation and polymerization degree were compared between the two groups, making a summary teaching evaluation. Amounts of preparation, polymerization degree and teaching satisfaction were tested by independent-samples t-test with software SPSS 21.0. Results:Compared with the resident trainees in control group, the t values of width difference of buccal shoulder, lingual shoulder, proximal middle shoulder and distal middle shoulder, height difference of functional cusp and the lowest part of the proximal middle fossa, and degree of buccal polymerization, lingual polymerization and distal polymerization were 6.21, 6.12, 3.83, 4.73, 3.73, 4.79, 8.35, 4.35, and 6.69 respectively , while P values were respectively as <0.001, <0.001, <0.001, <0.001, 0.001, <0.001, <0.001, <0.001, and <0.001, with statistical difference ( P<0.05) . The t values of height difference of non-functional cusp, the lowest part of the distal middle fossa and degree of proximal polymerization were 1.02, 1.97, and 1.43, while P values were respectively 0.312, 0.054, and 0.158, with no statistical difference ( P>0.05). All indicators of teaching satisfaction were statistically significant ( P<0.05). Conclusions:The application of digital teaching system is conducive to improving the onlay abutment teeth preparation level of residents with high teaching satisfaction, which is worth promoting in clinical practice.
