Background China is a major coal producer and consumer country in the world. Coal workers' pneumoconiosis (CWP) is a primary factor endangering the occupational health of coal miners. Research on the disease burden of CWP and its changing trend is significant for disease prevention & control and associated policies. Objective To analyze the disease burden of CWP in China from 1990 to 2021 and its changing trend, and predict the disease burden from 2022 to 2035. Methods Using the Global Burden of Disease Study (GBD) database of 2021, numbers ofincident cases, prevalent cases, deaths, and disability-adjusted life years (DALYs) as well as crude and age-standardized rates of CWP in China were retrieved. Linear regression model was used to calculate the estimated annual percentage change (EAPC) of the age-standardized rates. Joinpoint regression model was used to analyze the temporal trend of disease burden and the disease burden of different sexes and age groups, and Bayesian age-period-cohort (BAPC) model was used to forecast the trend of CWP disease burden. Results In 1990, the incident, prevalent, and deaths cases of CWP in China were

Objective:To identify early diagnostic biomarkers for preeclampsia by analyzing the placental and peripheral circulatory transcriptomic data of patients.Methods:Clinical information and microarray expression profiles of preeclampsia patients were sourced from high-throughput gene expression databases. Multi-omics approaches, including differential gene expression analysis, enrichment analysis, and weighted gene co-expression network analysis (WGCNA), were utilized to identify candidate diagnostic markers and explore potential mechanisms of preeclampsia. Subsequently, a combination of machine learning techniques, including random forest, support vector machine, and least absolute shrinkage and selection operator (LASSO), were employed for further screening of these candidates. Finally, the selected diagnostic markers were validated using a peripheral circulation dataset.Results:Differential gene expression analysis revealed 71 upregulated and 21 downregulated genes in preeclampsia. WGCNA linked the onset of preeclampsia with blue and teal modules. Enrichment analysis of candidate biomarkers suggested changes in cell cycle, cellular senescence, and immune-related pathways as primary drivers of preeclampsia. Further refinement through machine learning identified significant upregulation of COL17A1 and DIO2 genes in the peripheral blood of patients, demonstrating robust diagnostic potential. Conclusions:COL17A1 and DIO2 genes can be used as peripheral circulating diagnostic markers for the early diagnosis of eclampsia.

Objective:To establish the ultra-high performance liquid chromatography (UPLC) fingerprint and high performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) content determination method of Curcumae Radix standard decoction; To predict the quality markers of Curcumae Radix standard decoction combined with network pharmacology.Methods:UPLC method was used to establish the fingerprint of Curcumae Radix standard decoction, and the common peaks were determined. Combined with chemical pattern recognition techniques such as similarity analysis and clustering analysis, Curcumae Radix standard decoction from different producing areas was studied, and curcumol was used as an index to determine the content of 24 batches of Curcumae Radix standard decoction. At the same time, network pharmacology was used to predict potential of curcumol and (1S, 6β)-1β-Methyl-4-(1-methylethylidene)-7β-(3-oxobutyl) bicyclo [4.1.0] heptan-3-one.Results:A total of 24 batches of Curcumae Radix standard decoction from different habitats were compared and analyzed, and 10 common peaks were calibrated. The similarity of 24 batches of samples ranged from 0.982 to 0.999. Clustering analysis and principal component analysis divided them into three categories. Heat map analysis showed that peak 8 (curcumol) and peak 9 ((1S, 6β)-1β-Methyl-4-(1-methylethylidene)-7β-(3-oxobutyl) bicyclo [4.1.0] heptan-3-one) were the main components. The content of curcumol in 24 batches of Curcumae Radix standard decoction was 0.69-1.87 mg/g; curcumol and (1S, 6β)-1β-Methyl-4-(1-methylethylidene)-7β- (3-oxobutyl) bicyclo [4.1.0] heptan-3-one may regulate the neuroactive ligand-receptor interaction signaling pathway, calcium signaling, and excitation by regulating neuroactive ligand-receptor interaction signaling pathway, calcium signaling, and excitation. It was preliminarily predicted that curcumol and (1S, 6β)-1β-Methyl-4-(1-methylethylidene)-7β-(3-oxobutyl) bicyclo [4.1.0] heptan-3-one were potential quality markers of Curcumae Radix.Conclusion:Curcumol and (1S, 6β)-1β-Methyl-4-(1-methylethylidene)-7β-(3-oxobutyl) bicyclo [4.1.0] heptan-3-one are potential quality markers of Curcumae Radix standard decoction, and the established fingerprint can be used for the quality control of Curcumae Radix standard decoction.

Objective:To analyze the clinicopathological characteristics of IgG4-related sialadenitis (IgG4-RS).Methods:A total of 40 cases diagnosed with IgG4-RS were collected from the Department of Oral Pathology, Shanghai Ninth People′s Hospital, Shanghai Jiao Tong University School of Medicine from January 2019 to December 2022. Among them, there were 26 males and 14 females. The age range was 29-77 years old [(59.4±11.8) years old], with 23 patients being older than 60 years. The lesion site, imaging manifestations, histopathological features, serological test and treatment information of patients were collected. The expression of IgG4 and IgG proteins was detected by immunohistochemistry.Results:Submandibular region swelling was the most common initial symptom of IgG4-RS (38/40, 95.0%). All the patients having serum IgG4 levels> 1.35 g/L. Serum IgG4 levels were significantly increased in patients aged>60 years ( Z=-2.45, P=0.014) and those involving multiple glands ( Z=-2.04, P=0.042). Thirty six cases received major salivary gland biopsy, and all the cases showed dense lymphocyte and plasma cell infiltration. Lymphoid follicle, storiform fibrosis and obliterative phlebitis were seen in 88.9% (32/36), 63.9% (23/36), 30.6% (11/36) of the cases, respectively. Twenty one cases received labial salivary gland biopsy, 66.7% (14/21) showed lymphocyte and plasma cell infiltration, 19.0% (4/21) had lymphoid follicle structures, and 33.3% (7/21) showed no obvious histological abnormalities. No signs of fibrosis or obliterative phlebitis were observed in all labial salivary gland biopsies. And 95.0% (38/40) of cases had IgG4 positive plasma cell>10/HPF, 82.5% (33/40) of cases had IgG4/IgG positive plasma cell ratio>40%. All the patients had a decrease in serum IgG4 levels after glucocorticoid treatment, but only 21.4% (6/28) of cases had reduced to normal levels (≤1.35 g/L), and there were still significant fluctuations in serum IgG4 levels thereafter. Conclusions:IgG4-RS has a predilection for middle-aged and elderly male patients, and serum IgG4 levels are significantly related to the patient′s age and whether multiple glands are involved. Labial salivary gland biopsy cannot replace submandibular gland for histopathological evaluation. It is a common phenomenon that serum IgG4 levels cannot restored to normal levels after glucocorticoid treatment. This study provides certain assistance for clinical and pathological diagnosis of IgG4-RS. This study is beneficial for further understanding IgG4-RS and improving the clinical and pathological diagnosis of the disease.

The tea beverages will be endowed with distinct aroma and taste, as well as various biologically active compounds including probiotic factors, when fermented with lactic acid bacteria (LAB). However, at present, few studies on the dynamics of flavors in tea soup at different fermentation stages were conducted. In this study, the composition of monosaccharides, aromatic components, free amino acids, and organic acids were measured, when the black tea beverages were fermented with Lactobacillus coryniformis FZU63 which was isolated from Chinese traditional kimchi. The results indicated that monosaccharides including glucose, fructose, mannose and xylose in black tea beverages are the main carbon sources for fermentation. In addition, the abundance of aromatic compounds in black tea soup are increased significantly at different fermentation stages, which endow the fermented black tea soup with fruit aroma on the basis of flowery and nutty aroma. Moreover, some bitter amino acids are reduced, whereas the content of sweet and tasty amino acids is elevated. Furthermore, the levels of lactic acid, malic acid, citric acid and other organic acids are accumulated during the fermentation. Additionally, sensory evaluation displays that black tea beverage is acquired with comprehensive high-quality after being fermented for 48 h. This study provides a theoretical basis to steer and control the flavor formation and quality of the fermented tea beverages during LAB fermentation.

Objective:To investigate the clinical characteristics and prognosis in adult acute myeloid leukemia (AML) patients with FLT3-ITD and CEBPA double-mutated (CEBPAdm) co-mutation.Methods:Clinical data and prognostic factors were retrospectively analyzed in adult AML patients with FLT3-ITD and CEBPAdm co-mutation at The First Affiliated Hospital of Zhengzhou University from January 2016 to September 2018.Results:Among 599 non-acute promyelocytic leukemia (APL) patients, 268 received gene mutation detection, who were divided into 4 groups including 19 FLT3-ITD positive (FLT3-ITD +) and CEBPAdm positive (CEBPAdm +) cases (group A) , 84 FLT3-ITD + and CEBPAdm - cases (group B) , 95 FLT3-ITD - and CEBPAdm + cases (group C) , 70 double negative mutation cases (group D) . Gender, platelet count, FAB classification, induction treatment regimen and fusion gene mutation were comparable among four groups ( P>0.05) , while age onset, peripheral white blood cell (WBC) count, hemoglobin, percentage of blasts in peripheral blood, percentage of blasts in bone marrow, complete remission rate (CR 1 rate) after the first induction chemotherapy, the relapse rate, the median progression-free survival (PFS) time, and median overall survival (OS) time were significantly different between groups ( P<0.05) . When compared in pairs, gender, age onset, hemoglobin, platelet count, FAB classification in group A were not statistically different compared to group B, C and D ( P>0.05) , while patients in group A had higher WBC count, blasts in peripheral blood, minimal residual disease (MRD) in bone marrow. The CR 1 rates of group A, B, C, and D were 50.0%、32.4%、59.8%、39.0% respectively ( P=0.003) , and the relapse rates were 55.6%, 50.0%, 21.1%, 40.0% ( P<0.001) . As to survival, the median OS in each group was 6.25, 3.0, 15.5, 10.5 months respectively ( P<0.001) , and the median PFS was 5.0, 4.0, 10.0, 6.7 months ( P=0.032) . Conclusion:Adult AML patients with FLT3-ITD and CEBPAdm co-mutation have a higher leukemia load and low CR 1 rate, which translates into poor prognosis with high relapse rate and short survival time.
