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.

Renal fibrosis represents the pivotal pathological process driving the progression of chronic kidney disease (CKD) towards end-stage renal disease. Its core manifestations include chronic inflammation, excessive deposition of extracellular matrix (ECM), and tubulointerstitial injury resulting in functional deterioration. Emerging research on the molecular mechanisms underlying renal fibrosis has established that, beyond the canonical Smad-dependent pathway, transforming growth factor-β1 (TGF-β1) also modulates fibrogenesis through non-canonical signaling pathways, notably the mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK) and phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase/protein kinase B (PI3K/Akt) cascades. These non-canonical pathways engage in crosstalk with the canonical Smad pathway, synergistically regulating key processes such as ECM metabolism, inflammatory responses, and epithelial-mesenchymal transition (EMT), thereby collectively orchestrating the initiation and progression of renal fibrosis. Notably, various active components derived from traditional Chinese medicine have demonstrated anti-fibrotic efficacy by modulating these pathways, highlighting their promising multi-target therapeutic potential. This review aims to systematically summarize recent advances in understanding the roles of TGF-β1-mediated MAPK and PI3K/Akt non-canonical signaling pathways in renal fibrosis and to discuss potential therapeutic strategies targeting these pathways.

Objective Jejunal interposition is an important option for restoring gastrointestinal continuity in patients with complex esophageal cancer in whom the stomach is unavailable for reconstruction due to previous gastrectomy, tumor involvement, failed gastric conduit, or other constraints. Although the jejunum offers a caliber similar to the esophagus, a rich blood supply, and preserved peristaltic function, anatomical variations in mesenteric length and vascular arcades render long-segment and high-level reconstruction susceptible to excessive tension, mesenteric torsion, venous congestion, and inadequate distal perfusion. This consensus aims to provide standardized recommendations for the application of jejunal interposition in this specific patient population. Methods This consensus was developed in accordance with the WHO Handbook for Guideline Development and Chinese national guideline development standards, with reference to the Appraisal of Guidelines for Research & Evaluation Ⅱ(AGREE Ⅱ), Reporting Items for Practice Guidelines in Healthcare (RIGHT), and Scientific, Transparent and Applicable Rankings (STAR) checklists. The project was registered on the international practice guidelines registry platform (PREPARE-2026CN1384). The working group systematically searched Chinese and English evidence addressing 12 clinical questions. Evidence was graded using the Oxford Centre for Evidence-Based Medicine (OCEBM) 2009 system, with structured appraisal of risk of bias, inconsistency, indirectness, and imprecision. Recommendations were formulated through two rounds of Delphi surveys and a face-to-face consensus meeting, with an agreement threshold of ≥75%. Results The consensus generated 12 recommendations covering indications, selection between jejunum and colon, preoperative assessment, surgical approach and reconstruction route, pedicled jejunal interposition (PJI), supercharged pedicled jejunal interposition (SPJ), indocyanine green (ICG) perfusion assessment, perioperative nutrition, management of anastomotic leakage, long-term follow-up, and special treatment scenarios. Given that the available direct evidence is predominantly derived from single-center retrospective cohorts and case series, recommendations extrapolated from general esophagectomy or other gastrointestinal surgical evidence are deliberately phrased with caution. Conclusion Jejunal interposition is a safe and effective approach for digestive tract reconstruction in patients with complex esophageal cancer in whom the stomach is unavailable. This consensus emphasizes that clinical decision-making should be individualized based on the patient's prior treatment history, reconstruction height, vascular anatomy, technical availability, and institutional experience in the Chinese context.

Objective:To explore the clinical efficacy of health management programs for elderly patients with comorbid diabetes and coronary heart disease, to provide suggestions for health management of elderly patients with comorbid diabetes and coronary heart disease.Methods:A randomized controlled trial was conducted. A total of 72 elderly patients with comorbid diabetes and coronary heart disease from different communities who visited the Fenglin Street Community Health Service Center, Xuhui District, Shanghai, from January to June 2023 were selected by convenient sampling method. They were divided into control group and experimental group by random number method, with 36 cases in each group. The control group used the routine health management program, the experimental group used the health management program for elderly patients with comorbid diabetes and coronary heart disease. The clinical indicators (glycated hemoglobin, body mass index, etc), self-management abilities (including those of elderly patients with diabetes and those with coronary heart disease), and quality of life were compared between the two groups.Results:There were 14 males and 22 females in the control group, with an age of (73.67 ± 5.97) years; there were 21 males and 15 females in the experimental group, with an age of (73.33 ± 5.63) years. After intervention, the glycated hemoglobin of patients in the experimental group was (7.03 ± 0.64)%, while that of the control group was (7.42 ± 0.72)%. The difference between the two groups was statistically significant ( t=-2.49, P<0.05).The scores of self-management ability of elderly patients with diabetes and elderly patients with coronary heart disease in the experimental group were (22.66 ± 4.69) and (98.28 ± 13.54) points, which were significantly higher than (20.56 ± 4.05) and (93.00 ± 8.01) points in the control group, the differences were statistically significant ( t=2.03, 2.01, both P<0.05). The score of energy in the experimental group was (35.56 ± 8.68) points, which was higher than that of the control group (28.75 ± 15.18) points, the difference was statistically significant ( t=2.34, P<0.05). Conclusions:Health management programs for elderly patients with comorbid diabetes and coronary heart disease can significantly improve patients′ blood glucose control and enhance their self-management abilities for diabetes and coronary heart disease. However, further validation is needed to improve patients′ blood lipid control level and quality of life.

OBJECTIVES: To analyze the association between biological aging markers (phenotypic age and phenotypic age acceleration) and valvular heart diseases. METHODS: Research subjects who met the inclusion and exclusion criteria were selected from the UK Biobank from 2006 to 2010. The phenotypic age and phenotypic age acceleration were calculated. Cox multivariate analysis was used to examine the relationship between the aging markers and valvular heart diseases. Sensitivity analysis was conducted by removing missing values and subgroup analysis. The predictive accuracy of phenotypic age and phenotypic age acceleration for valvular heart diseases was analyzed using receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curves, and a clinical decision curve was generated based on logistic regression. RESULTS: A total of 411 687 subjects were included in the study, among whom there were 14 258 patients with valvular heart diseases. The overall median follow-up time was 12.80 years, the median follow-up time for patients with non-rheumatic aortic valve diseases (n=5238), non-rheumatic mitral valve diseases (n=4558), and non-rheumatic tricuspid valve diseases (n=411) were 12.82 years, 12.83 years and 12.84 years, respectively. After adjusting for demographic factors (gender, race, education, Townsend deprivation index), anthropometric factors (body mass index), lifestyle factors (smoking, alcohol consumption, Dietary Approaches to Stop Hypertension score), hypertension and hyperlipidemia, Cox multivariate analysis showed phenotypic age and phenotypic age acceleration were independent risk factors for valvular heart diseases, including non-rheumatic aortic valve diseases, non-rheumatic mitral valve diseases, and non-rheumatic tricuspid valve diseases (phenotypic age: corrected HR=1.04, P<0.01; phenotypic age acceleration: corrected HR=1.03, P<0.01), which was also confirmed by sensitivity analysis. ROC curves and clinical decision curves demonstrated that compared with the phenotypic age acceleration, phenotypic age had higher accuracy (the areas and the curves were 0.721 and 0.599) and higher net benefit in predicting valvular heart diseases. Moreover, compared with a single indicator, the combination of the two indicators had higher accuracy (the area under the curve was 0.725) and higher net benefit. CONCLUSIONS Phenotypic age and phenotypic age acceleration,as markers of biological aging, are independent risk factors for valvular heart diseases. Compared with phenotypic age acceleration, phenotypic age has a greater advantage in predicting valvular heart diseases. Overall, the combination of the two indicators offers a more effective approach for predicting valvular heart diseases.

OBJECTIVE To establish a clinical comprehensive evaluation framework for direct oral anticoagulants （DOACs） in the prevention of cancer-associated venous thromboembolism （CAVTE）， providing a methodological reference for the rational prevention and treatment of CAVTE as well as for the formulation and adjustment of macro-management strategies for anticoagulant drugs. METHODS Through literature retrieval， evaluation indicators were collected and organized to establish a preliminary indicator pool. The selection of evaluation indicators was carried out through two rounds of Delphi surveys using average score of indicator importance≥3.5 and a coefficient of variation （CV） ＜0.25 as the screening criteria. Analytic hierarchy process （AHP） was employed to finalize the indicator weights. RESULTS The authority levels （C）r of the two rounds of expert consultations were 0.877 and 0.943， with CV of 0.24 and 0.18， respectively. The Kendall concordance coefficients were 0.331 and 0.535 （P＜0.05）. After expert validation， six primary indicators and forty-six secondary indicators were finalized for inclusion in the evaluation framework. The primary indicators and their weightings， ranked in descending order， were as follows：“ effectiveness” （38.86%）， “safety” （38.86%），“ cost-effectiveness” （10.67%），“ accessibility” （5.51%），“ suitability” （3.48%）， and “innovation” （2.64%）. The secondary indicators exhibited a weight range from 0.02% to 20.25%， with the top five secondary indicators being：“ incidence of intracranial hemorrhage” （20.25%）， “reduction in all-cause mortality” （15.29%）， “decrease in the incidence of pulmonary embolism” （8.82%）， “reduction in the incidence of deep vein thrombosis” （7.25%）， and “drug contraindications” （4.74%）. CONCLUSIONS This study has established an authoritative， scientific， and reliable comprehensive clinical evaluation framework for the use of DOACs in the prevention of CAVTE.

Nucleotide-binding oligomerization domain (NOD)-like receptor protein 3 (NLRP3) is a cytosolic pattern recognition receptor that recognizes multiple pathogen-associated molecular patterns and damage-associated molecular patterns. It is a cytoplasmic immune factor that responds to cellular stress signals, and it is usually activated after infection or inflammation, forming an NLRP3 inflammasome to protect the body. Aberrant NLRP3 inflammasome activation is reportedly associated with some inflammatory diseases and metabolic diseases. Recently, there have been mounting indications that NLRP3 inflammasomes play an important role in liver injuries caused by a variety of diseases, specifically hepatic ischemia/reperfusion injury, hepatitis, and liver failure. Herein, we summarize new research pertaining to NLRP3 inflammasomes in hepatic injury, hepatitis, and liver failure. The review addresses the potential mechanisms of action of the NLRP3 inflammasome, and its regulation in these liver diseases.
