Objective To explore the latent profile of health-promoting lifestyle in patients with lumbar disc herniation treated conservatively and analyze its influencing factors,so as to provide reference for the develop-ment of targeted interventions.Methods Patients with conservative treatment of Lumbar Disc Herniation at the orthopedic outpatient clinic of a tertiary hospital in Guangzhou from March to December 2024 were selected as study subjects.General Information Questionnaire,Health-Promoting Lifestyle Profile Revised-Ⅱ,Visual Analogue Scale,Oswestry Disability Index and Social Support Rating Scale were used for the investigation.Latent profile analysis was used to explore the potential categories of health-promoting lifestyle in patients with lumbar disc her-niation and the influencing factors were identified by univariate analysis and disordered multiple logistic regression analysis.Results A total of 422 lumbar disc herniation patients treated conservatively were included and the score of Health-Promoting Lifestyle Profile Revised-Ⅱ Scale was(102.44±13.19)points.The health-promoting lifestyle of patients with lumbar disc herniation can be divided into three potential profile:low health promotion group-low responsibility and less exercise type(18.7%),balanced health promotion group(51.7%)and high health promotion group-spiritual social leading type(29.6%).The results of logistic regression analysis showed that course of disease,oswestry disability index,social support level and take regular physical exercise are the influenc-ing factors of health-promoting lifestyle in patients with conservative treatment of lumbar disc herniation(P<0.05).Conclusions There is heterogeneity in the health-promoting lifestyle in patients with conservative treat-ment of lumbar disc herniation.Nursing staff can carry out targeted interventions according to the latent profile type of health-promoting lifestyle in lumbar disc herniation patients treated conservatively to improve their health-promoting lifestyle.

Objective To explore the early diagnostic value of serum heat shock protein 70(HSP70),periosten combined with low-dose spiral CT(LDCT)for lung cancer.Methods From July 2022 to June 2024,103 lung cancer patients admitted to our hospital were regarded as the lung cancer group,and 87 patients with benign pulmonary nodules were selected as the benign group.ELISA kit was used to measure serum HSP70 and Periostin.Multivariate logistic regression was applied to analyze the influencing factors of lung cancer.Four grid table method was applied to calculate the sensitivity,specificity,and accuracy of LDCT combined with serum HSP70 and Periostin in the diagnosis of lung cancer.Kappa test was applied to evaluate the consistency between LDCT,serum HSP70,Periostin combined with LDCT and pathological diagnosis of lung cancer.Results Compared with the benign group,the lung cancer group had greatly higher levels of serum HSP70 and Periostin(P＜0.05).Compared to the benign group,the lung cancer group had higher proportions of lobulation and spiculation signs(P＜0.05).Multivariate logistic regression showed that HSP70(OR=1.569),Periostin(OR=1.427),lobulation sign(OR=2.015),and spiculation sign(OR=1.946)were all independent risk factors for lung cancer(P＜0.05).The sensitivity,specificity,and accuracy of LDCT in diagnosing lung cancer were 85.44％,88.51％,and 86.84％,respectively;the sensitivity,specificity,and accuracy of serum HSP70 and Periostin combined with LDCT in diagnosing lung cancer were 93.20％,80.46％,and 87.37％,respectively.Kappa test showed that the consistency between serum HSP70,Periostin combined with LDCT had high consistency with pathology in the diagnosis of lung cancer(Kappa value=0.743).Conclusion The serum levels of HSP70 and Periostin are higher in lung cancer patients.The combination of serum HSP70 and Periostin with LDCT has better diagnostic efficacy for lung cancer.

Background and Aims:Chronic skin ulcers are a significant disease affecting patients'daily lives and psychological well-being.Abnormalities in the cells and extracellular matrix within the tissue may disrupt the balance of the microenvironment,hindering the normal skin repair process and leading to delayed healing of the ulcer.There is currently a lack of research on the mechanisms underlying the development of chronic ulcers and their diagnostic biomarkers.Single-cell sequencing,a newly developed high-throughput sequencing method in recent years,uses gene sequencing at the single-cell resolution to precisely reveal disease mechanisms and has been applied in various diseases.This study used single-cell transcriptome sequencing(scRNA-Seq)to investigate the cellular heterogeneity in chronic skin ulcer tissue to elucidate the potential molecular mechanisms behind delayed healing and provide new insights for clinical treatment.Methods:The scRNA-Seq technology was used to compare the differences in cell subpopulations and gene expression between chronic ulcer tissue and normal skin tissue.Single cells were sorted using a microfluidic platform,and cDNA libraries were constructed for subsequent differential gene analysis and functional enrichment analysis.Results:scRNA-Seq analysis revealed significant immune-metabolic remodeling features in chronic ulcer tissue:the number of B cells,monocytes,and macrophages in ulcer tissue increased by 2.1 to 3.5 times compared to the normal tissue control.This was accompanied by widespread activation of collagen synthesis genes(COL1A1/COL3A1)and synergistic suppression of immune regulators(e.g.,granzyme family GZMA/GZMB/H).Cross-cell subpopulation functional network analysis showed that hypoxia response mediated by the HIF-1 signaling pathway and PI3K/Akt pathway abnormalities formed a positive feedback loop,exacerbating the imbalance in the secretion of inflammatory factors(CXCL3/8,TGFBI)and compensatory upregulation of mitochondrial oxidative phosphorylation.Conclusion:Chronic skin ulcers exhibit significant differences in cellular heterogeneity and gene expression,suggesting that chronic ulcers are not simply tissue defects but a complex pathological process dominated by chronic inflammation and immune dysregulation.The coordinated dysregulation of multiple cell subpopulations in the ulcer microenvironment,along with persistent inflammatory responses and metabolic abnormalities,is interconnected through the HIF-1/TNF/MAPK pathway network.Downregulation of granzyme gene family members and abnormal histone modifications may contribute to immune clearance defects,providing a theoretical basis for developing novel therapies targeting epigenetic regulation or mitochondrial function.

Blonanserin,a second-generation atypical antipsychotic agent,acts as an antagonist for dopamine D2,D3,and serotonin 5-HT2A receptors.Clinical studies have demonstrated that blonanserin is non-inferior to other antipsychotics,such as haloperidol and risperidone,in alleviating the symptoms of schizophrenia.Moreover,it exhib-its beneficial effects on cognitive symptoms and social functioning,with a favorable safety profile,making it one of the key treatment options for schizophrenia.With extensive clinical experience accumulated in China,this expert consensus aims to provide psychiatrists with updated and localized guidance on the optimal use of blonan-serin.Based on a systematic review of the latest evidence-particularly studies in Chinese population,this paper pres-ents the updated Chinese expert recommendations for the clinical use of blonanserin in 2024.
