Objective To evaluate the efficacy and safety of obinutuzumab(OBZ)in the treatment of refractory primary membranous nephropathy(pMN).Methods The clinical data of 15 patients with refractory pMN who received OBZ treatment in Department of Nephrology of The First Affiliated Hospital of Naval Medical University between Jan.2022 and Sep.2024 were retrospectively analyzed,and they included basic information,relevant laboratory indexes,clinical and immunological outcomes,and adverse events.Results Among the 15 patients with refractory pMN,14(93.3％)were phospholipase A2 receptor(PLA2R)-associated membranous nephropathy(10 cases with positive PLA2R by renal biopsy and 4 cases with no recorded PLA2R results by renal biopsy but with positive serum PLA2R antibodies).During the follow-up period,all 15 patients achieved clinical remission,with 4(26.7％)patients achieving complete remission and 11(73.3％)patients achieving partial remission.Of the 12 patients with positive serum PLA2R antibodies,11 patients had continuously positive serum PLA2R antibodies before OBZ treatment,and 9(81.8％)patients achieved immunological remission after OBZ treatment.All the 15 patients had previously received immunosuppressive therapy,and all of them were classified as refractory pMN,with 7(46.7％)patients having been treated with cyclophosphamide combined with corticosteroids,2(13.3％)patients having been treated with calcineurin inhibitor combined with corticosteroids,11(73.3％)patients having received rituximab.During the treatment,2(13.3％)cases of adverse events were observed:1 patient experienced transient liver dysfunction,and the transaminase returned to normal after discontinuing atorvastatin;another patient developed a positive T-cell spot test for Tuberculosis infection during the intertreatment interval and successfully completed the subsequent OBZ treatment and achieved clinical remission after treatment with isoniazid and rifampicin.Conclusion OBZ demonstrates favorable clinical efficacy in the treatment of refractory pMN,with a low incidence of adverse events.

Objective:s To investigate the risk factors for delayed encephalopathy after acute carbon monoxide poisoning (DEACMP) in patients with acute carbon monoxide poisoning (ACOP) and to develop predictive models based on machine learning algorithms.Methods:Patients with ACOP hospitalized at the First Affiliated Hospital of Zhengzhou University from August 2019 to October 2024 were included, with the occurrence of DEACMP as the outcome measure. The dataset was randomly divided into training and validation sets at a ratio of 7:3. Lasso regression was used to select features influencing the outcome in training sets. Nine machine learning models—including Random Forest (RF), Extreme Gradient Boosting (XGBoost), and Support Vector Machine (SVM)—were constructed. Receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curves were plotted and the area under the curve (AUC) calculated for each model. Calibration curves were used to assess accuracy, and decision curve analysis (DCA) was applied to evaluate clinical utility. The SHapley Additive exPlanations (SHAP) method was employed to visualize and interpret the best-performing model.Results:A total of 264 ACOP patients were included, of whom 54 (20.5%) developed DEACMP. Lasso regression identified eight key feature variables. Based on these factors, predictive models were constructed, showing good AUC stability across the nine machine learning models in both training (0.92–0.99) and validation sets (0.85–0.91). The RF model performed best, with an AUC of 0.99 in the training set and 0.90 in the validation set; its calibration curve and DCA curve also demonstrated excellent performance. SHAP analysis of the RF model revealed the importance ranking of factors from highest to lowest as follows: Glasgow Coma Scale (GCS) score, duration of coma, age, history of coronary heart disease, CK-MB level, monocyte count, diastolic blood pressure (DBP), and drinking history.Conclusions:The RF model exhibited the highest predictive performance for DEACMP occurrence in ACOP patients. The influencing factors, ranked in order of importance from highest to lowest, are as follows: GCS score, duration of coma, age, history of coronary heart disease, CK-MB level, monocyte count, DBP, and drinking history.

Objective: To analyze the impact of parental sports concept and behavior on physical activity in preschool children, so as to provide a foundation for future guidance on fostering childrens physical activity within the family context. Methods: From November to December 2020, a clustered convenience sampling method was employed to conduct surveys, and a total of 283 children were selectal from one kindergarten each in Beijing, Shenyang, and Xian. Participating children wore ActiGraph GT9X accelerometers continuously for one week to collect data on different intensity levels of physical activity. Physical Activity afterschool Questionnaire for Preschooler (P-PAQ) was utilized to assess parental sports concept and behavior. The gender differences in physical activity level and physical activity compliance rate were analyzed by using ttest, Mann-Whitney U test, and Chisquare test; and the relationship between parental exercise concepts and behaviors and physical activity of preschool children was analyzed using Spearman rank correlation analysis and multiple linear regression analysis. Results: Parental sports concept was significantly positively correlated with average daily moderatetovigorous physical activity (MVPA) and total physical activity (TPA) in children (r=0.12-0.16, P<0.05). Parental sports behavior was significantly positively correlated with childrens average daily TPA (r=0.25, P<0.05). Multiple linear regression revealed that parental sports concept was positively correlated with average daily MVPA and TPA in both boys and girls (B=0.65-0.83), while parental sports behavior only was positively correlated with boys average daily MVPA and TPA (B=0.24-0.25)(P<0.05). Conclusions Parental sports concept and behavior can impact physical activity levels in preschool children, exhibiting gender differences. Future guidance on physical activity in family upbringing should consider both parental sports concept and behavior, and pay attention to the influence of childrens gender.

Objective:To construct a questionnaire on the knowledge, attitude and practice (KAP) of community general practitioners for colorectal cancer screening.Methods:From September 2023 to June 2024, an initial version of questionnaire on knowledge, attitude and practice (KAP) of community general practitioners for colorectal cancer screening was formed based on existing guidelines and related research results; then two-round Delphi experti consultation was held to finalize the initial questionnaire.Results:Twenty one experts were invited for Delphi consultation, including 14 general practitioners and 7 gastroenterologists; 7 from community health service centers and 14 from public tertiary hospitals. The enthusiasm of experts in the first round and second round consultations was 100.0% and 90.5%; the consistency of experts was 4.03-4.75 and 4.39-4.93; the coordination of experts was 0.09-0.22 and 0.03-0.12, respectively. The Kendall coordination coefficients were 0.154 and 0.390 respectively ( P<0.001), indicating that there was significant consistency in expert opinions and the results of the letter inquiry were highly reliable. The final version of the KAP questionnaire included 28 items in three dimensions: knowledge, attitude, and behavior. Among them, knowledge items K1-K9 included the determination of risk population, risk factors, screening methods, screening intervals, and other contents; attitude items A1-A12 included attitudes towards factors of patients, doctors and government that affect screening, and attitudes towards the necessity of screening; behavior items P1-P7 included active screening behaviors such as patient assessment and advices for active screening. Conclusion:This study has preliminarily constructed a questionnaire on knowledge, belief and behavior of general practitioners for colorectal cancer screening.

Fetal STR typing of aborted tissue has long been a major problem in forensic DNA.Especially for the first trimester abortion tissue,it is difficult to isolate the embryonic components by histomorphological means,resulting in the inability to accurately obtain the STR typing of the fetus.The mixed STR typing results of mother and fetus can provide a key basis for the identification of suspects in cases of rape-induced pregnancy.In this study,next generation sequencing was used to successfully detect mixed STR typing of mother and suspected fetus or single STR typing of suspected fetus in 4 rape-induced early pregnancy abortion tissues.Combined with Y-STR and flank sequence information,it provides a more comprehensive and reliable genetic basis for the identification of suspects.

Objective: To establish the norm of the Physical Activity afterschool Questionnaire for Preschooler(P-PAQ) in urban areas of China, so as to provide a basis for graded guidance from the family perspective and to improve children s physical activity levels. Methods: From October 2020 to January 2021, 6 267 children aged 3-6 years old were recruited from 40 kindergartens in eight cities across six major administrative regions by stratified cluster sampling, and the P-PAQ initially developed by the researchers of this study were completed by the primary caregivers. The questionnaire was administered to collect data relating to the amount of physical activity undertaken by the preschoolers, and the norm was determined by quartiles. Data relating to parental concepts of sports and parental behavior were assessed by calculating mean scores in order to establish the norm. Results: Among preschoolers in urban areas, the M(P 25 ，P 75 ) of total physical activity time (min/day), moderate-to-vigorous physical activity time (min/day), outdoor time (min/day) and screen time (min/day) on school days outside kindergarten and on weekends were 84 (54,120), 22 (8,40), 12 (0,24) and 18 (6,30), and 170 (115,240), 60 (30,95), 90 (35,120) and 30 (20,60), respectively. When the score of parents sports concept and behavior (total score of 40) were≥34, 29-<34, 24-<29, <24, it was defined as four levels about above medium, medium, lower medium and lower, respectively. And for two dimensions，when the score of parental sports concept were ≥19, 17-<19, 15-<17, <15，and the score of parental behaviors were ≥16, 12-<16, 8-<12, <8, it was defined as four levels about upper medium, medium, lower medium and lower, respectively. Conclusion The norm of extracurricular activities among preschool children in Chinese cities has good representativeness and appropriate threshold values, which could provide a valuable reference for early assessment, as well as guidance in relation to out-of-school physical activity behaviors among children aged 3-6 years old.

This study aimed to investigate the effect and mechanisms of Ephedra Herb (EH) extract on adriamycin-induced nephrotic syndrome (NS), providing an experimental basis for the clinical treatment of NS. Hematoxylin and eosin staining, creatinine, urea nitrogen, and kidn injury molecule-1 were used to evaluate the activities of EH extract on renal function. The levels of inflammatory factors and oxidative stress were detected by kits. The levels of reactive oxygen species, immune cells, and apoptosis were measured by flow cytometry. A network pharmacological approach was used to predict the potential targets and mechanisms of EH extract in the treatment of NS. The protein levels of apoptosis-related proteins and CAMKK2, p-CAMKK2, AMPK, p-AMPK, mTOR and p-mTOR in the kidneys were detected by Western blot. The effective material basis of EH extract was screened by MTT assay. The AMPK pathway inhibitor (compound C, CC) was added to investigate the effect of the potent material basis on adriamycin-induced cell injury. EH extract significantly improved renal injury and relieve inflammation, oxidative stress, and apoptosis in rats. Network pharmacology and Western blot results showed that the effect of EH extract on NS may be associated with the CAMKK2/AMPK/mTOR signaling pathway. Moreover, methylephedrine significantly ameliorated adriamycin-induced NRK-52e cell injury. Methylephedrine also significantly improved the phosphorylation of AMPK and mTOR, which were blocked by CC. In sum, EH extract may ameliorate renal injury via the CAMKK2/AMPK/mTOR signaling pathway. Moreover, methylephedrine may be one of the material bases of EH extract.
