Objective To investigate the association between physical activity levels and blood lipids among college freshmen, and to provide scientific evidence for the health management of college freshmen. Methods An electronic questionnaire survey on physical activity was conducted on freshmen of a university, and fasting blood biochemical indicators were detected. The International Physical Activity Questionnaire (IPAQ) short form was used to evaluate the physical activity levels of the participants. Dyslipidemia was defined as an abnormality in any one of the following serum lipid parameters: total cholesterol, triglycerides, low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C), high-density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL-C), or non-high-density lipoprotein cholesterol. Binary logistic regression and stratified analyses were employed to explore the relationship between physical activity and blood lipids. Results A total of 3 401 participants were included, with an average age of 18.45 ± 0.92 years, and 60.5% were female. The prevalence of dyslipidemia was 17.7%, with a higher rate among males (22.1%) than females (14.8%). After adjusting for confounding factors related to blood lipids, high-intensity physical activity was negatively associated with the risk of elevated LDL-C among males (OR = 0.36, 95% CI: 0.13–0.99, P = 0.049). Conclusion Among freshmen at a medical college in Hubei Province, high-intensity physical activity is negatively associated with the risk of elevated LDL-C in males, but this association needs to be further confirmed by larger prospective cohort studies.

Objective:To establish a quantitative diagnostic standard for Crohn's disease with dampness syndrome based on clinical data using a disease syndrome combination model and conduct bidirectional validation.Methods:256 patients with Crohn's disease from the Department of Spleen and Stomach Diseases at Guangdong Provincial Hospital of Chinese Medicine, the Department of Gastroenterology at the Sixth Affiliated Hospital of Sun Yat-sen University, and the Outpatient Department of Guangdong Provincial Hospital of Chinese Medicine from October 2021 to January 2022 were selected as the observation objects. They were divided into an operation group of 205 patients and a verification group of 51 patients in an 8:2 ratio using a random number table method. The frequency advantage method, χ2 test, and binary logistic regression analysis were used to screen for relevant standard factors. The conditional probability method was used to assign scores to relevant items, and the maximum likelihood method was used to determine the quantitative diagnostic threshold. A quantitative diagnostic standard for Crohn's disease with dampness syndrome based on disease syndrome combination was established, and it was retrospectively analyzed and prospectively verified. Results:On the basis of the 20 candidate quantitative diagnostic criteria items for Crohn's disease dampness syndrome, binary logistic regression analysis was performed to calculate the OR values between each item. The quantitative diagnostic criteria for Crohn's disease with dampness syndrome included tongue coating greasiness (7 points), body heaviness (13 points), waist and knee soreness (8 points), head weight (9 points), bland mouth (6 points), anal heaviness (8 points), uncomfortable bowel movements (8 points), and sticky stools (7 points), with a quantitative diagnostic threshold of 11. Conclusion:The scoring of relevant items in the quantitative diagnostic criteria for Crohn's disease with dampness syndrome is reasonable and has good diagnostic value, which can provide reference for further quantitative research on Crohn's disease syndromes.

Objective: To evaluate the safety and efficacy of therapeutic whole blood exchange combined with lymphoplasmapheresis in the treatment of refractory autoimmune hemolytic anemia (AIHA). Methods: A retrospective analysis was performed on the clinical data of AIHA patients who underwent therapeutic whole blood exchange combined with lymphoplasmapheresis at our hospital from March 2022 to May 2025. Efficacy was assessed by comparing changes in hemoglobin, platelet count, and bilirubin levels before and after treatment. Safety was evaluated by analyzing vital signs before and after the procedure, parameters during the exchange, and adverse reactions. Results: A total of 12 AIHA patients were enrolled, completing 19 exchange procedures. The number of procedures per patient ranged from 1 to 3. The median treatment duration was 67 (65-73) minutes, with a median exchange volume of 2 025 (1 851-2 121) mL, comprising 4.5 (4-6) units of red blood cells and 1 350 (1 200-1 400) mL of plasma. Ten patients achieved partial remission, one achieved complete remission, and one showed no response, yielding an response rate of 91% (11/12). After a single session, hemoglobin increased significantly by 17.58±9.85 g/L (P<0.01), while platelets counts decreased by 45 (17.5, 79)×10
/L (P<0.05), and both systolic and diastolic blood pressure showed a significant elevation (P<0.05). However, no statistically significant differences were observed in total bilirubin, indirect bilirubin, white blood cell count, or heart rate. During the procedures, 4 adverse reactions occurred in 3 patients: one child experienced severe heart rate fluctuation twice consecutively, and two adults developed plasma allergies. All reactions resolved spontaneously without pharmacological intervention. Conclusion: The combination of therapeutic whole blood exchange and lymphoplasmapheresis appears to be a safe and effective treatment for refractory AIHA patients.

Ionizing radiation occurs not only during nuclear and radiological terrorist attacks or nuclear accidents but also in medical applications and daily life. In recent years, the potential toxic effects of low-dose ionizing radiation on the male reproductive system have raised public health concerns. Most specifically, for the testis, a highly sensitive target organ to ionizing radiation, there is an urgent need to determine the mechanisms underlying the association between radiation-induced spermatogenic failure and male infertility. Focusing on the potential injurious effects of low-dose ionizing radiation on spermatogenesis, this review presents a summary and analysis of various underlying mechanisms including oxidative stress, apoptosis, and DNA damage repair and reviews recent domestic and international strategies for protecting against radiation-induced reproductive system damage in order to offer references for future research on the injurious effects of low-dose radiation on spermatogenesis and relevant protection.

Objective:To investigate the association between quantitative CT-derived hip bone mineral density (BMD) and all-cause mortality in elderly women after hip fracture surgery.Methods:A retrospective study was conducted to analyze the clinical data of the 254 elderly women with hip fracture who had been surgically treated at Department of Orthopaedics and Traumatology, Shunyi District Hospital between December 2018 and December 2019. Their average age was (79.3±7.7) years. There were 128 femoral neck fractures and 126 intertrochanteric fractures. CT images of their proximal femurs on the healthy side were analyzed using quantitative CT Pro software to assess the BMDs at the femoral neck, greater trochanter, intertrochanteric region, and total hip. The primary endpoint was all-cause mortality during follow-up. The patients were classified into a death group and a censored group (survivors and those lost to follow-up). The secondary outcome was recovery of pre-fracture ambulation. Multivariable Cox proportional hazards regression was performed to evaluate the association between regional hip BMD and mortality risk.Results:Of the patients, 236 obtained a follow-up of 36.9 (32.7, 42.6) months and 18 were lost to the follow-up. A total of 28.3% (72/254) of the patients died within 3 years after surgery. The overall hip BMD [(0.510 9±0.094 3) g/cm 2], the greater trochanter BMD [(0.351 0±0.079 6) g/cm 2], and the intertrochanteric BMD[(0.629 5±0.116 9) g/cm 2] in the death group were significantly lower than those in the censored group [(0.565 8±0.104 1) g/cm 2, (0.398 6±0.092 1) g/cm 2, and (0.685 6±0.126 6) g/cm 2]( P<0.05). The multivariate Cox regression analysis showed that a lower BMD at all hip sites measured was significantly associated with a higher mortality risk before adjustments ( P<0.05), but after confounding variables were adjusted, only the greater trochanter BMD ( HR=1.789, 95% CI: 1.035 to 3.092, P=0.037) and the intertrochanteric BMD ( HR=1.758, 95% CI: 1.018 to 3.037, P=0.043) were significantly associated with a higher mortality risk. Furthermore, follow-ups showed that 54 patients (56.3%, 54/96) in the high trochanter BMD group regained their pre-fracture ambulatory status, significantly more than the 22 patients in the low BMD group (32.4%, 22/68), showing an increased odds of ambulation recovery ( OR=2.688, 95% CI: 1.405 to 5.143, P=0.003). Conclusion:In elderly women with hip fracture, quantitative CT-derived measurement of the hip BMD, particularly in the trochanteric region, can serve as an early warning indicator of all-cause mortality after hip fracture surgery.
