Objective To explore the prognostic value of serum glutathione reductase(GR),superoxide dismutase(SOD),cystatin C(Cys-C),homocysteine(Hcy)and lipoprotein a[Lp(a)]levels in patients with cerebral ischemic stroke(CIS),and to provide a reference for improving the prognosis of CIS patients.Methods 126 patients with CIS admitted to the 980th Hospital of Joint Logistics Support Force from June 2022 to April 2023 were selected as the observation group,another 126 healthy individuals were selected as the control group at a ratio of 1:1.The expression levels of GR,SOD,Cys-C,Hcy and Lp(a)in the two groups were detected and compared after admission and during physical examination.The degree of neurological deficit in patients with CIS was classified into mild(NIHSS:2～4 points,n=35),moderate(NIHSS:5～15 points,n=47),moderate-severe(NIHSS:16～20 points,n=26)and severe(NIHSS:21～42 points,n=18)according to the National Institutes of Health Stroke Scale(NIHSS).The expression of serum GR,SOD,Cys-C,Hcy and Lp(a)in patients with different degrees of neurological deficit was compared,and the correlation between each indicator and the degree of neurological deficit was analyzed.The observation group received intravenous thrombolytic therapy after admission and was re-examined one day after thrombolysis.After treatment,follow-up visits were conducted for 28 days.According to the patient's condition(modified Rankin scale),patients were divided into good prognosis(n=94)and poor prognosis groups(n=32).The levels of each indicator in patients with different prognoses were compared,and the predictive value of GR,SOD,Cys-C,Hcy and Lp(a)expression for poor prognosis and early warning were analyzed.Results The expression levels of serum GR(48.54±3.07U/L)and SOD(157.17±25.47U/ml)in the observation group were lower than those in the control group(61.68±3.15U/L,203.63±18.31U/ml),while the expression levels of Cys-C(1.24±0.28mg/L),Hcy(15.21±1.62μmol/L)and Lp(a)(386.53±52.16mg/L)were higher than those in the control group(0.82±0.23mg/L,9.58±0.60μmol/L,257.83±45.34mg/L),with statistically significant differences(t=13.011～36.582,all P<0.05).As the disease progressed,the expression levels of GR and SOD gradually decreased,while the expression levels of Cys-C,Hcy and Lp(a)gradually increased,with statistically significant differences(F=14.685～197.041,all P<0.05).Spearman analysis,GR and SOD were negatively correlated with the degree of neurological deficit in patients with CIS(r=-0.814,-0.753,all P<0.05),while Cys-C,Hcy and Lp(a)were positively correlated with the degree of neurological deficit in patients with CIS(r=0.647,0.782,0.724,all P<0.05).The expression of GR and SOD in patients with good prognosis at admission and 1 day after thrombolysis was higher than that in patients with poor prognosis(t=9.109,6.338;2.934,4.358,all P<0.05),while the expression of Cys-C,Hcy and Lp(a)was lower than that in patients with poor prognosis(t=5.246,5.118,8.561;4.636,5.298,7.461,all P<0.05).The AUC(95%CI)of combined prediction of GR,SOD,Cys-C,Hcy and Lp(a)at admission was 0.898(0.832～0.945),and the AUC(95%CI)of combined prediction of GR,SOD,Cys-C,Hcy and Lp(a)at 1 day after thrombolysis was 0.931(0.871～0.968).The RR(95%CI)values caused by the expression of GR,SOD,Cys-C,Hcy and Lp(a)at 1 day after thrombolysis were 2.868(1.594～5.161),3.194(1.807～5.645),0.155(0.082～0.291),0.150(0.071～0.319)and 0.227(0.119～0.435).Conclusion Abnormal changes in the levels of GR,SOD,Cys-C,Hcy and Lp(a)are closely related to the degree of neurological deficit and prognosis in patients with CIS.Early combined detection of GR,SOD,Cys-C,Hcy and Lp(a)levels has high predictive value and early warning for evaluating the poor prognosis of patients with CIS.

Objective:To investigate the current status of occupational internal exposure of nuclear medicine staff performing 131I treatment, and explore the related influence factors, so as to provide a basis for protection against internal exposures. Methods:A survey was conducted using cluster random sampling method to ascertain all the nuclear medicine staff involved in 131I treatment in nuclear medicine hospitals in Hubei province for the years 2021 to 2023. The in vitro monitoring mesurement was made of the 131I activity in thyroid by using portable gamma spectrometer, and the committed effective dose was estimated. Results:The positive detection rate of 131I in treatment staff was between 18.75% and 21.12%, with an average of 20.08%. The highest value found in cleaning and nursing staff in iodine therapy workplaces. The detection rate found in two hospitals were up to 75.61% and 64.71%, respectively. The detection rate was positive for the three consecutive years. There was no statistically significant difference in the committed effective dose between different treatment positions, and the level of internal exposure was lower than the external exposure arising from nuclear medicine practice. Factors affecting detection rate of 131I in thyroid included the amount of 131I used for treatment, and disorder type for treatment, 131I dose, use or otherwise of automated radiopharmaceutical dispenser, and ventilation in treatment rooms. Conclusions:Continuous attention should be paid to the internal exposure of nuclear medicine staff for use of 131I for treatment. Ventilation should be provided regularly, as required, to the 131I treatment rooms and active rooms and the staff should wear masks during the relevant working processes.

Aim To investigate the changes in hepatic lactylation during liver regeneration and its impact on regeneration.Methods A partial hepatectomy(PHx)mouse model was used to study liver regenera-tion.Sodium oxamate was administered intraperitoneal-ly to inhibit lactate dehydrogenase,and blood and liver tissues were collected at different time points post-sur-gery.The histopathological status was observed using HE staining.Proliferating cell nuclear antigen(PC-NA)levels were detected by immunohistochemistry.Lactylation was assessed using immunofluorescence.Liver LDH enzyme activity,lactate levels and serum alanine aminotransferase(ALT)and aspartate trans-aminase(AST)levels were measured using assay kits.Results After PHx,the liver volume of mice gradual-ly increased,returning to preoperative size on day 7.PCNA levels peaked at 48 hours post-surgery.Liver tissue lactate levels increased to approximately 1.5 times the preoperative level at 12 hours post-surgery and remained elevated until day 7.The lactylation lev-el in hepatocytes peaked at 24 hours post-surgery,gradually declined after 48 hours,and returned to pre-operative levels on day 7.Compared to the PHx group,the sodium oxamate(750 mg·kg-1)+PHx group showed significantly reduced lactylation levels in hepa-tocytes and a smaller liver regeneration volume on day 7.Conclusion Lactylation regulates hepatocyte pro-liferation and promotes liver regeneration after PHx.

Objective:To investigate the differences in electroencephalographic (EEG) microstate characteristics between children with autism spectrum disorder (ASD) and typically developing (TD) children, and to explore the correlation between irritability and EEG microstate features in ASD children.Methods:A total of 104 children with ASD [ASD group, 83 boys, 21 girls; aged 4-13 years, mean age (9.47±1.74)years] from the Autism Cohort of Nanjing Medical University and 60 TD children [TD group; 50 boys, 10 girls; aged 5-13 years, mean age(9.86±1.78) years ]from the IEEE Dataport database were enrolled. Irritability severity was assessed using the Affective Reactivity Index-Parent (ARI-P). Resting-state EEG data with eyes closed were recorded using a 24-channel dry-electrode EEG cap. Group-level EEG microstate topographic maps and microstate parameters, including mean duration, frequency, and time coverage, were extracted and compared between groups using nonparametric tests. In the ASD group, Spearman correlation analysis was used to examine the associations between microstate features and ARI-P in ASD children. Multiple linear regression was used to identify predictors of irritability.Results:Four group-level microstates (A, B, C, D) were identified in both groups. Compared to TD children, ASD children exhibited significantly longer mean duration for all microstates, in microstates A[ M(Q1, Q3)]: 0.060 (0.054,0.070) vs 0.091 (0.0530, 0.155) s, microstate B: 0.059 (0.050, 0.066) vs 0.087 (0.057,0.149) s, microstate C: 0.059 (0.050, 0.066) vs 0.095 (0.056, 0.183) s and microstate D: 0.055 (0.049,0.075) vs 0.095 (0.053,0.162) s ( Z=-3.51, -4.89, -4.71, -4.21; all P<0.001); However, microstate occurrence frequencies were significantly lower in the ASD group: A: 5.423 (3.640,21.024) vs 1.834 (1.327,3.395) Hz, microstate B: 4.949 (3.439,20.038) vs 2.146 (1.314,3.834) Hz, microstate C: 5.888 (3.998,22.078) vs 2.234 (1.441,3.768) Hz and microstate D: 5.371 (3.170,15.208) vs 2.074 (1.147,3.582) Hz ( Z=-7.72, -6.41, -7.85, -6.60; all P<0.001). In the ASD group, ARI-P scores were positively correlated with the mean duration of microstates B, C, and D ( r=0.28, 0.26, 0.33; all P<0.05) and negatively correlated with the occurrence frequency of microstates A, C, and D ( r=-0.26, -0.27, -0.21; all P<0.05). Multiple linear regression analysis revealed that the mean duration of microstate B was a significant predictor of irritability severity ( β=0.436, 95% CI: 1.260-4.202, P<0.001). Conclusion:Resting-state EEG microstate characteristics in Children with ASD differ from those in TD children and are associated with the severity of irritability. Prolonged duration of microstate B may serve as a risk factor for increased irritability in children with ASD.

ObjectiveTo elucidate the correlation between alterations in digestion and absorption functions and hepatic deficiency states in aging rats based on the R-spondin1/Wnt3a signaling pathway， and reveal the intervention mechanism of Bugansan. MethodsForty-eight SPF-grade male SD rats were randomly assigned to six groups： blank control， model， low-， medium-， and high-dose （7.03， 14.06， 28.12 g·kg^-1， respectively） Bugansan， and vitamin E （suspension， 27 mg·kg^-1）， with 8 rats in each group. The rat model of aging was established by intraperitoneal injection of D-galactose （400 mg·kg^-1）， while the blank control group was injected with normal saline. Since the day of modeling， rats in intervention groups received corresponding agents by gavage， and those in blank control and model groups received an equal volume of normal saline （10 mL·kg^-1）. General biological features such as fur color， activity， body mass， water intake， and food intake were observed. Meanwhile， the content of malondialdehyde （MDA） and the activities of superoxide dismutase （SOD） and glutathione peroxidase （GSH-Px） in the serum were measured to assess aging. Grip strength and the content of total bile acids （TBA） and the activity of α-amylase （AMY） in the serum were measured to evaluate hepatic deficiency states. The activity of β-galactosidase （β-gal） in the duodenum was measured to evaluate intestinal senescence. The levels of glucagon-like peptide-1 （GLP-1）， vasoactive intestinal peptide （VIP）， and D-xylose in the serum were determined to assess digestion and absorption functions of the small intestine. Hematoxylin-eosin staining was conducted to observe pathological changes of the duodenum to assess the small intestine damage. Immunohistochemical staining was employed to visualize the expression of B-cell-specific Moloney murine leukemia virus integration site 1 （Bmi1） and leucine-rich repeat-containing G protein-coupled receptor 5 （Lgr5） in the duodenal tissue. Moreover， Real-time quantitative polymerase chain reaction （Real-time PCR） was utilized to quantify the mRNA levels of Ki67， Bmi1， and Lgr5 to assess proliferation and regeneration of the small intestine. Additionally， the mRNA levels of R-spondin1， Wnt3a， β-catenin， and glycogen synthase kinase-3β （GSK-3β） and the protein levels of R-spondin1， Wnt3a， β-catenin， and phosphorylated GSK-3β （p-GSK-3β） in the duodenum were determined by Real-time PCR and Western blot， respectively， to analyze the mechanisms of intestinal digestion and absorption dysfunction in aging rats and the regulatory characteristics of Bugansan. ResultsCompared with blank control group， the model group showed decreases in body mass， water intake， food intake， grip strength， activities of SOD， GSH-Px， and AMY in the serum and content of GLP-1， VIP and D-xylose in the serum （P<0.05）， increases in the content of MDA and TBA in the serum and β-gal activity in the duodenum （P<0.05）， reductions in villus length， villus width， crypt depth， and villi/crypt （V/C） value， down-regulated mRNA and protein levels of Ki67， Lgr5， Bmi1， R-spondin1， Wnt3a， β-catenin， and up-regulated level of GSK-3β， phosphorylation （p）-GSK-3β （P<0.05）. Compared with the model group， Bugansan increased the body mass， water intake， food intake， grip strength， and activities of SOD， GSH-Px， and AMY and levels of GLP-1， VIP and D-xylose in the serum （P<0.05）， while decreasing the content of MDA and TBA in the serum and β-gal activity in the duodenum （P<0.05）. Furthermore， Bugansan increased the villus length， villus width， crypt depth， and V/C value， up-regulated the mRNA and protein levels of Ki67， Lgr5， Bmi1， R-spondin1， Wnt3a， β-catenin， and down-regulated the level of GSK-3β and p-GSK-3β （P<0.05）. ConclusionAging rats exhibit obvious impairments in digestion and absorption functions， accompanied by a state of hepatic deficiency. The traditional Chinese medicine approach of tonifying liver Qi effectively ameliorates aging-related changes by modulating the R-spondin1/Wnt3a signaling pathway to mitigate intestinal senescence and enhance digestion and absorption functions， ultimately contributing to the delay of aging.

Objective:To analyze the efficacy of combination of peginterferon α-2b（Peg-IFN α-2b）with nucleos（t）ide analogues（NAs）on antiviral therapy in children with chronic hepatitis B（CHB）and to provide an optimized clinical treatment strategies for CHB children.Methods:A retrospective analysis was conducted on 30 CHB children treated in The First Affiliated Hospital of the Army Medical University（Southwest Hospital）from January 2022 to January 2025 with treatment duration at least 48 weeks. The enrolled children were aged between 2 and 17 years and divided into the NAs combined with Peg-IFN α-2b（NPI）group（n=13）and NAs group（n=17）by their therapy regimens. The characteristics of baseline，week 12，week 24，week 48 and week 96 were compared between groups，as well as the differences in response to biochemical，immune and viral indicators at each observation point. Logistic regression analysis and receiver operating characteristic（ROC）curve analysis were performed to identify factors influencing the HBsAg seroclearance. Results:At baseline of treatment，the proportion of HBeAg positivity in the NPI group and the NAs group was high（76.9% vs 86.6%， χ2=0.679， P=0.628），and the alanine aminotransferase（ALT）and aspartate aminotransferase（AST）in the NPI group were significantly lower than those in the NAs group（ P<0.001）. At 24 weeks，the decrease in HBsAg in the NPI group was also significantly higher than that in the NAs group（ Z=-3.161， P=0.002）. Finally，the cumulative seroclearance rate of HBsAg at 96 weeks in the NPI group was significantly higher than that in the NAs group（46.15% vs 5.88%， χ2=0.679， P=0.025）. Mulitivariate Logistic regression analysis showed that treatment regimen and gender were risk factors affecting the outcome of HBsAg（ P<0.05）. ROC curve analysis showed that the increase in ALT at 12 weeks compared with baseline（AUC=0.857，Cutoff value=3.615 IU/L），the decrease in ALT at 24 weeks（AUC=0.870，Cutoff value=47.85 IU/L），and the decrease in HBsAg at 12 weeks and especially at 24 weeks（AUC=0.885，Cutoff value=0.97log IU/ml）were effective predictors of HBsAg prognosis at 96 weeks. Conclusion:In CHB children，antiviral regimen Peg-IFN α-2b combined with NAs was more effective than NAs alone in improving the HBsAg seroclearance rate of CHB，and the effects in female were better than in male. The decline of HBsAg and the fluctuation of ALT in the early treatment period are valid predictors of HBsAg clearance.
