ObjectiveMicrotube associated protein-2 （MAP-2）， alpha-tubulin （α-tubulin）， and synaptophysin （SYP） are important proteins in neuronal signal communication. This paper observed the effects of modified Zhigancao Tang on the expression of serum α-Synuclein （α-Syn） and its oligomers， MAP-2， α-tubulin， and SYP of patients with liver and kidney deficiency of Parkinson's disease （PD）， analyzed their correlation， and evaluated the therapeutic effect of modified Zhigancao Tang in patients with liver and kidney deficiency of PD based on α-Syn transmission pathway mediated by neuronal communication in vivo. MethodsA total of 60 patients with PD who met the inclusion criteria were randomly divided into a treatment group （30 cases） and a control group （30 cases）. Both groups were treated on the basis of PD medicine， and the treatment group was treated with modified Zhigancao Tang. Both groups were treated for 12 weeks. The changes in UPDRS score， TCM syndrome score， and expression of serum α-Syn and its oligomers， MAP-2， α-tubulin， and SYP were observed before and after 12 weeks of treatment in each group. The correlation between the above-mentioned serum biological indexes and the levels of serum α-Syn and its oligomers was analyzed. ResultsAfter treatment， the TCM syndrome score， UPDRS score， UPDRS-Ⅱ score， and UPDRS-Ⅲ score of the treatment group were significantly decreased （P<0.05， P<0.01）. The UPDRS score， UPDRS-Ⅱ score， and UPDRS-Ⅲ scores in the treatment group were significantly decreased compared with those in the control group after treatment （P<0.05）. After treatment， the total effective rate of the control group was 63.3% （19/30）， and that of the treatment group was 86.7% （26/30）. The clinical effect of the observation group was better than the control group （Z=-2.03， P<0.05）. The total effective rate of the observation group was better than that of the control group， and the difference was statistically significant （χ²=5.136， P<0.05）. After treatment， the oligomer level of serum α-Syn and MAP-2 level in the treatment group were significantly decreased （P<0.05， P<0.01）. The levels of serum α-Syn and its oligomers， as well as α-tubulin in the treatment group， were significantly decreased compared with those in the control group after treatment （P<0.05， P<0.01）. Serum α-Syn was correlated with serum MAP-2 and α-Syn oligomer in patients with PD （P<0.05， P<0.01） but not correlated with serum SYP . Serum α-Syn oligomers of patients with PD were correlated with serum MAP-2 and α-tubulin （P<0.05， P<0.01） but not correlated with serum SYP level. Serum SYP of patients with PD was correlated with serum MAP-2 （P<0.05）. ConclusionModified Zhigancao Tang has a therapeutic effect on patients with liver and kidney deficiency of PD by inhibiting the production of α-Syn oligomers and intervening α-Syn microtubule transport pathway in vivo.

E3 ubiquitin ligase is a key enzyme that determines substrate specificity during ubiquitination and plays an important role in regulating the degradation of tumor suppressor or oncogenic proteins. E3 ubiquitin ligase is involved in regulating leukemia cell differentiation, cell cycle and immune response, and it is closely related to the occurrence and development of acute myeloid leukemia (AML). Targeting highly specific E3 ubiquitin ligase can be used as an effective treatment for AML. This article reviewed the latest progress of E3 ubiquitin ligase in the diagnosis and treatment of AML, aiming to provide insights for the precise targeted therapy of this disease.

Objective To investigate the feasibility of magnetic tracer technique for locating pulmonary nodules.Methods A tracer magnet and a matching puncture instrument were designed by ourselves for locating pulmonary nodules.After preliminarily verifying the feasibility of the operation in the isolated lung,four beagle dogs were used as animal models to perform puncture localization of the assumed lesions in the upper lobe of the right lung under the guidance of X-ray by using self-designed tracer magnets and puncture instruments,and the positioning effect was observed and evaluated after thorax opening.The operation time required for the tracer magnet implantation,whether there is bleeding at the puncture site,whether the tracer magnet is displaced,and the positioning time of pulmonary nodules after thorax opening were recorded.Results Two tracer magnets were successfully inserted into the upper lobe of the right lung under X-ray guidance in four beagle dogs,and the magnets were successfully attracted and fixed.The median insertion time of the tracer magnet was 5 minutes(4 to 7 minutes),and the insertion process was smooth without bleeding at the puncture site.After thorax opening,oval forceps were used to conveniently locate the location of the tracer magnet,achieving accurate positioning of pulmonary nodules with a median positioning time of 13 seconds(10 to 17 seconds),and the tracer magnet did not shift during the whole process.Conclusion The magnetic tracer technique is simple to operate and pricise for localization of pulmonary nodules.With further optimization of the operation process,this technique is expected to be applied in clinic.

Objective To investigate the effects of different administration times on the efficacy and safety of subcutaneous immunotherapy using dual mite extracts in patients with allergic rhinitis(AR).Methods This study was designed as a retrospective cohort analysis.Thirty-nine mite-sensitized AR patients who completed three years of standardized dual-mite subcutaneous immunotherapy(SCIT)were included.Based on self-selected and consistently maintained injection schedules,patients were non-randomly assigned to either a morning dosing group(MD group,8:00-12:00,n=19)or an afternoon dosing group(AD group,14:00-18:00,n=20),with further subgroup stratification conducted at 2-hour intervals.Nasal and ocular symptoms were evaluated before and after treatment using the visual analog scale(VAS),and all adverse reactions were systematically recorded.Results The AD group exhibited significantly greater improvement in nasal itching compared to the MD group(median difference:-2 vs.0,U=118.5,P=0.04,effect size r=0.33).The AD group also demonstrated favorable trends toward improved sneezing,nasal congestion,rhinorrhea,and total VAS score,although these differences did not reach statistical significance.In the subgroup analysis by 2-hour intervals,the 16:00-18:00 subgroup showed greater symptom relief than the 8:00-10:00 subgroup,though the difference was not statistically significant.No significant differences were observed between the two groups in the incidence of total,local,or systemic adverse reactions(P>0.05),and no moderate or severe systemic adverse events occurred.Conclusions This preliminary retrospective analysis indicates that afternoon administration of dual-mite SCIT,particularly between 16:00 and 18:00,may enhance the improvement of nasal symptoms without elevating safety concerns.The timing of SCIT administration could therefore represent a promising avenue for treatment optimization.

Objective:To investigate the outcomes of natural cycle (NC) and modified natural cycle (MNC) assisted reproductive technology (ART) in patients with diminished ovarian reserve (DOR), and to provide a scientific basis for individualized treatment strategies for DOR patients.Methods:A retrospective cohort analysis was performed on the clinical data of DOR patients who underwent ART at the Center for Reproductive Medicine of the Department of Obstetrics and Gynecology, Peking University Third Hospital from January 1, 2015 to December 31, 2023. Patients were divided into the NC group ( n=801) and the MNC group ( n=385) based on their treatment protocol. The primary outcomes were cycle cancellation rate and oocyte retrieval rate. Secondary outcomes included clinical pregnancy rate and live birth rate per fresh embryo transfer cycle and frozen-thawed embryo transfer cycle, cumulative pregnancy rate and cumulative live birth rate per started cycle and per transfer cycle, as well as laboratory parameters such as the number of retrieved oocytes, the number of two pronuclei (2PN) fertilized oocytes, the number of transferable embryos, and transferable embryo formation rate. Further, multivariate logistic regression was used to analyze the impact of the treatment protocol on pregnancy and live birth outcomes. Results:There were no statistically significant differences between the NC and MNC groups in terms of general characteristics such as age, body mass index, and baseline hormone levels (all P>0.05). The cycle cancellation rate was significantly higher in the NC group [19.10% (153/801)] than in the MNC group [10.65% (41/385), P<0.001], and the oocyte retrieval rate was significantly lower in the NC group [66.31% (431/650)] than in the MNC group [74.86% (259/346), P=0.005]. The number of retrieved oocytes [1 (0,1)], the number of 2PN fertilized oocytes [1 (0,1)], and the number of transferable embryos [0 (0, 1)] were also significantly lower in the NC group than in the MNC group [1 (1, 2), P<0.001; 1 (1, 1), P<0.001; 0 (0, 1), P<0.001]. However, there were no statistically significant differences in 2PN fertilization rate and transferable embryo formation rate between the NC and MNC groups (all P>0.05). In both fresh embryo transfer cycles and frozen-thawed embryo transfer cycles, there were no statistically significant differences in clinical pregnancy rate and live birth rate between the NC and MNC groups (all P>0.05). The cumulative pregnancy rate per started cycle and transfer cycle, the cumulative live birth rate per started cycle and per transfer cycle were also not significantly different between the NC and MNC groups (all P>0.05). Multivariate logistic analysis showed no significant association between NC and clinical pregnancy or live birth compared with MNC. Conclusion:While MNC to some extent reduced the cycle cancellation rate and improved oocyte retrieval rates compared with NC, it did not ultimately improve pregnancy outcomes in DOR patients.

With the rapid development of competitive sports, the incidence of anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) injury is on the rise. Such injuries may shorten athletes′ career and lead to other long-term adverse consequences. Although athletes generally recover well after ACL reconstruction, many still struggle to return to their pre-injury performance levels. Advances in the understanding of ACL anatomy and injury mechanisms, along with the evolution of surgical techniques and rehabilitation methods, have provided more individualized and tailored options for athletes following ACL injuries. However, there is currently no consensus in China regarding surgical and rehabilitation strategies for competitive athletes aiming to return to sports after ACL injuries. To this end, the Sports Medicine Committee of the Chinese Research Hospital Association and the Editorial Board of the Chinese Journal of Trauma jointly formulated the Expert consensus on surgical treatment and rehabilitation for competitive sports athletes returning to sports after anterior cruciate ligament injury ( version 2025), and presented 14 recommendations covering surgical indications, preoperative rehabilitation, surgical timing, surgical strategies and postoperative rehabilitation strategies, aiming to improve the surgical treatment and rehabilitation system for ACL injuries in competitive athletes and facilitate their return to high-level sports performance after injury.

Objective:To analyze change trend of disease burden of chronic kidney disease (CKD) mortality between 2012 and 2023 in Chongqing, and provide suggestion for CKD prevention.Methods:The mortality data of CKD were collected from Chongqing death registration between 2012 and 2023 according to International Classification of Diseases 10 th. The data were analyzed to calculate mortality rate, standardized mortality rate, age specific mortality rate, and the rate of years of life lost (YLL) and proportion by using software SPSS 26.0. The mortality rate of CKD between men and women, urban area and rural area were compared by χ2 test. The change trend was described by average annual percent of change (AAPC). Results:The mortality rate and standardized mortality rate of CKD were 7.94/100 000 and 4.63/100 000 respectively in 2012 and 6.70/100 000 and 2.79/100 000 respectively in 2023 in Chongqing. The difference in change of CKD mortality rate was not significant (AAPC=-0.79%, t=-1.60, P=0.273). However, the standardized mortality rate of CKD decreased by 3.59% ( t=-3.98, P=0.003) from 2012 to 2023. The mortality rate of CKD was higher in men than in women in 2014 and 2022, the differences were significant (all P<0.05). The standardized mortality rate of CKD in men and women decreased by 3.17% and 4.11% respectively between 2012 and 2023, the difference was significant (all P<0.05). The mortality rate of CKD had been higher in urban area than in rural area since 2016 (all P<0.05). During this period, the mortality rate and standardized mortality rate of CKD in urban area remained stable, but the mortality rate and standardized mortality rate of CKD in rural area showed average annual decreases of 2.21% and 4.90%, the differences were significant (all P<0.05). The proportion of CKD due to hypertension decreased, but the proportion of CKD due to diabetes and other causes increased. The rate of age standardized YLL of CKD showed an average annual decrease of 2.83%, the differences were significant ( P=0.011). Conclusions:The standardized mortality rate and age standardized YLL of CKD decreased from 2012 to 2023 in Chongqing. Men, urban residents and the elderly are key populations in CKD prevention.

Objective:To compare the Kadish T staging, AJCC T staging, and Dulguerov T staging system in terms of their impact on surgical treatment selection and survival prognosis in patients with olfactory neuroblastoma (ONB).Methods:The cases of pathologically confirmed ONB from the Surveillance, Epidemiology, and End Results (SEER) database between 2000 and 2018 were collected and screened. Tumors were staged according to Kadish staging system, AJCC T staging and Dulguerov T staging guidelines. Kaplan-Meier analysis was used to calculate 5-and 10-year overall survival rates for different stages, and the log-rank test was used to detect statistically significant differences. Multivariate analysis was performed using Logistic regression and Cox regression models to explore factors influencing surgical treatment choices and prognosis in ONB patients.Results:A total of 519 ONB patients with complete data available for analysis were included in the study. Multivariate analysis revealed that tumor staging, age, and marital status were closely associated with surgical treatment selection. The 10-year survival rates for patients in stage A, B, and C were 74.1%, 68.7%, 55.0%, respectively. The multivariate analysis failed to show a significant prognostic gradient between adjacent stages in any of the three staging systems.Conclusions:The selection of surgical treatment for ONB is influenced by clinical characteristics such as tumor stage and age. The commonly used Kadish, AJCC T, and Dulguerov T staging systems do not significantly differentiate prognosis between adjacent stages, highlighting the need for the development of a more accurate and comprehensive staging system.

Objective:To analyze the characteristics of non-seroconverted cases after rabies vaccination and observe the effect of booster vaccination.Methods:A retrospective collection of data was conducted from March 2022 to March 2023 across 409 rabies vaccination clinics in 27 provinces in China, focusing on cases with rabies virus neutralizing antibody (RVNA) levels less than 0.5 IU/ml after vaccination.Results:A total of 77 cases were identified in whom seroconversion was not observed within 30 days post-vaccination with the rabies vaccine. The gender distribution was 51.9% male and 48.1% female, with ages ranging from 2 to 83 years old. Delayed vaccination was observed in 11 cases (14.3%), and 63 cases (81.8%) received human rabies immunoglobulin (HRIG) injections. None of the cases had a confirmed immunosuppressive disease or taking immunosuppressive drugs, and the body mass index (BMI) distribution ranged from 14.37 to 34.74 kg/m 2. Seventy-six cases seroconverted after 1 to 3 doses of rabies vaccines as a booster vaccination. One case that did not seroconvert after the initial booster vaccination seroconverted after receiving additional 2 doses of vaccine. All patients were followed up for one year, with no cases of rabies reported. Conclusions:The characteristics of cases that failed to seroconvert after the full course of rabies vaccination lacked specificity, and booster vaccination could lead to seroconversion.
