In mass spectrometry-based proteomics experiments,achieving high-throughput and efficientproteolytic digestion is crucial to ensure optimal protein cleavage and enhance the depth of protein identi-fication (including the number of identified proteins and the coverage of protein amino acid sequences) .Trypsin is the most widely used protease in mass spectrometry-based proteomics due to its ability to spe-cifically cleave the carboxyl terminus of arginine and lysine.However,it was found that Trypsin has some missed enzymatic efficiency for the cleavage of lysine residues.Therefore,in actual proteomics sample preparation,a combination of Trypsin and LysC will be used to ensure adequate cleavage of lysine resi-dues.Our study revealed that the commonly employed LysC-Trypsin tandem cleavage method exerts an impact on the enzymatic cleavage of protein samples by Trypsin due to the subsequent cleavage of Trypsin by initially added LysC.Consequently,we adjusted the order of LysC and Trypsin tandem digestion,with Trypsin cleavage being performed first followed by the addition of LysC to target any missed lysine resi-dues.We comprehensively compared and analyzed three distinct sequential digestion methods,namely Trypsin-Trypsin (T-T),LysC-Trypsin (L-T),and Trypsin-LysC (T-L),in terms of their effects on pro-tein sample preparation quality.The results demonstrated that the Trypsin-LysC sequential digestion ap-proach not only minimizes missed protein lysine/arginine cleavage sites without increasing experimental costs,at the same time yielding peptides with a moderate amino acid sequence length.The use of Tryp-sin-LysC digestion enhances the adsorption and separation of peptide samples in RP-HPLC,as well as improves the depth of protein detection and amino acid sequence coverage during tandem mass spectrome-try analysis.This research work offers a novel technical solution and serves as a valuable reference for proteome sample preparation.

Journal of Obesity & Metabolic Syndrome 2024;33(2):133-142
Background:
Triglyceride glucose (TyG) and TyG-body mass index (TyG-BMI) are reliable surrogate indices of insulin resistance and used for risk stratification and outcome prediction in patients with atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease (ASCVD). Here, we inserted estimated average glucose (eAG) into the TyG (TyAG) and TyG-BMI (TyAG-BMI) as derived parameters and explored their clinical significance in cardiovascular risk prediction.
Methods:
This was a population-based cohort study of 9,944 Chinese patients with ASCVD. The baseline admission fasting glucose and A1C-derived eAG values were recorded. Cardiovascular events (CVEs) that occurred during an average of 38.5 months of follow-up were recorded. We stratified the patients into four groups by quartiles of the parameters. Baseline data and outcomes were analyzed.
Results:
Distribution of the TyAG and TyAG-BMI indices shifted slightly toward higher values (the right side) compared with TyG and TyG-BMI, respectively. The baseline levels of cardiovascular risk factors and coronary severity increased with quartile of TyG, TyAG, TyG-BMI, and TyAG-BMI (all P<0.001). The multivariate-adjusted hazard ratios for CVEs when the highest and lowest quartiles were compared from low to high were 1.02 (95% confidence interval [CI], 0.77 to 1.36; TyG), 1.29 (95% CI, 0.97 to 1.73; TyAG), 1.59 (95% CI, 1.01 to 2.58; TyG-BMI), and 1.91 (95% CI, 1.16 to 3.15; TyAG-BMI). The latter two showed statistical significance.
Conclusion
This study suggests that TyAG and TyAG-BMI exhibit more information than TyG and TyG-BMI in disease progression among patients with ASCVD. The TyAG-BMI index provided better predictive performance for CVEs than other parameters.

Objective:To analyze the current status of internet-based patient education materials related to labor analgesia in China.Methods:Labor analgesia-related materials were retrieved and screened according to the search habits of Chinese search engine users. The coverage and accuracy of the content were evaluated by 3 anesthesiologists. The Chinese version of the Patient Education Materials Assessment Tool for Print Materials was used to subjectively assess comprehensibility and operability from a medical text perspective. The consistency of the evaluation results of the three anesthesiologists was analyzed using the intraclass correlation coefficient method. A machine learning method combined with ChatGPT-4.0 was employed to establish a Chinese readability classification model to objectively evaluate the readability difficulty of the included materials from a Chinese text perspective.Results:A total of 97 web pages were retrieved, with 21 valid materials included in the study. The coverage rate of contraindications for labor analgesia was only 62% (13/21), and the accuracy rate of materials exceeding 90% was 71% (15/21). Internet-based materials that were easy to understand accounted for 81% (17/21), while the constituent ratio of internet-based materials with instructional significance were only 5% (1/21). The intraclass correlation coefficient values of consistency evaluation for coverage rate, accuracy rate, and comprehensibility and operability were 0.975, 0.833, 0.758, and 0.773, respectively ( P<0.001). Internet-based materials suitable for compulsory education level were only 5% (1/21), while those suitable for high school and above education level accounted for 43% (9/21). Conclusions:There are numerous internet-based patient education materials related to labor analgesia in China, but the quality needs improvement. In the future, a collaborative model of " anesthesiology+ linguistics" should be developed to provide patients with more comprehensive, accurate, and pregnant-friendly patient education materials.
