Organophosphorus pesticides(OPs)are widely used in global agriculture,and pose a serious threat to ecological environment and human health due to their high environmental persistence and biological toxicity.Colorimetric sensing strategies based on the inhibition of acetylcholinesterase(AChE)have become an important method for detecting OPs because of their simplicity and high specificity.However,the sensitivity is limited by the insufficient catalytic efficiency of traditional nanozymes.In this study,a one-step solvothermal method was used to synthesize polyoxometalate nanoribbons(POM)loaded with gold nanoparticles(Au NPs),named Au-POM.Experimental results showed that Au-POM could catalyze the decomposition of H2O2 in an acidic environment(pH 4.0),demonstrating typical peroxidase-like activity.Based on this,an AChE,choline oxidase(ChOx)and Au-POM nano enzyme cascade catalytic system was constructed.In this system,AChE specifically catalyzed the hydrolysis of acetylcholine(ACh)to choline,and then ChOx mediated the oxidation of choline to produce H2O2.During this process,Au-POM acted as a peroxidase-like enzyme to catalyze the decomposition of H2O2 to generate reactive oxygen species,triggering a specific oxidation reaction of the chromogenic substrate 3,3',5,5'-tetramethylbenzidine(TMB)into oxidized form.When the OP pesticide ethoprophos(EP)was present,it inhibited the activity of AChE and blocked the generation of ACh and H2O2,indirectly inhibiting the oxidation of TMB.The color and absorbance of the solution changed in a concentration-dependent manner.The detection limit of this method for EP was 1.05 μmol/L,and the linear response range was 20-180 μmol/L(R2=0.998).This method was applied to detection of environmental water samples and coriander samples with satisfactory results,providing a reliable technical platform for monitoring of OPs in environment and food.

Functional dyspepsia (FD), characterized by persistent or recurrent dyspeptic symptoms without identifiable organic, systemic or metabolic causes, is an increasingly recognized global health issue. The objective of this guideline is to equip clinicians and nursing professionals with evidence-based strategies for the management and treatment of adult patients with FD using traditional Chinese medicine (TCM). The Guideline Development Group consulted existing TCM consensus documents on FD and convened a panel of 35 clinicians to generate initial clinical queries. To address these queries, a systematic literature search was conducted across PubMed, EMBASE, the Cochrane Library, China National Knowledge Infrastructure (CNKI), VIP Database, China Biology Medicine (SinoMed) Database, Wanfang Database, Traditional Medicine Research Data Expanded (TMRDE), and the Traditional Chinese Medical Literature Analysis and Retrieval System (TCMLARS). The evidence from the literature was critically appraised using the Grading of Recommendations Assessment, Development, and Evaluation (GRADE) approach. The strength of the recommendations was ascertained through a consensus-building process involving TCM and allopathic medicine experts, methodologists, pharmacologists, nursing specialists, and health economists, leveraging their collective expertise and empirical knowledge. The guideline comprises a total of 43 evidence-informed recommendations that span a range of clinical aspects, including the pathogenesis according to TCM, diagnostic approaches, therapeutic interventions, efficacy assessments, and prognostic considerations.

The antidepressant activity and molecular mechanisms of Yueju Wan volatile oil were investigated. The Yueju Wan volatile oil was extracted by using supercritical CO_2. Gas chromatography-mass spectrometry(GC-MS) combined with network pharmacology identified 28 chemical constituents in Yueju Wan volatile oil, primarily terpenes and lactones. A total of 123 overlapping targets were associated with depression, including core targets of interleukin-1β(IL-1β), signal transducer and activator of transcription 3(STAT3), and caspase-3(CASP3). These targets were mainly involved in the prolactin, advanced glycation end products/receptor(AGE/RAGE), and phosphoinositide 3-kinase/protein kinase B(PI3K/Akt) signaling pathways. A reserpine-induced depression mouse model was established to evaluate the therapeutic effects and mechanisms of Yueju Wan volatile oil. The effects of Yueju Wan volatile oil on depression-like behavior in mice were evaluated by analyzing body mass, body temperature index, tail suspension immobility time, forced swimming immobility time, and sucrose preference. Hematoxylin-eosin(HE) staining revealed neuronal protection of Yueju Wan volatile oil in the brain of mice. Enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay(ELISA) and Western blot were employed to detect the protein expression of AGEs, IL-1β, phosphorylated PI3K(p-PI3K), Akt, phosphorylated Akt(p-Akt), nuclear factor κB(NF-κB), and brain-derived neurotrophic factor(BDNF). Behavioral evaluation showed that Yueju Wan volatile oil could effectively control the decline of body mass and body temperature of depressed mice, reduce tail suspension and swimming immobility time, and enhance their preference for sucrose. Histopathological examination showed that Yueju Wan volatile oil could alleviate the neuronal damage in CA1 and dentate gyrus(DG) of the hippocampus of mice. ELISA and Western blot results showed that Yueju Wan volatile oil could significantly increase the protein expression levels of PI3K, Akt, and BDNF and significantly decrease the protein expression levels of AGEs, IL-1β, p-PI3K, p-Akt, and NF-κB in the hippocampus of mice. Furthermore, the p-PI3K/PI3K and p-Akt/Akt ratios were significantly decreased at medium and high doses. These findings suggest that the aromatherapy of Yueju Wan volatile oil can significantly improve reserpine-induced depression-like behavior in mice, which may be related to reducing the expression of neuronal membrane protein AGEs, reducing the phosphorylation levels of PI3K and Akt, inhibiting NF-κB entry into the nucleus, and alleviating the release of pro-inflammatory factors and nerve injury.

PURPOSE: To investigate the incidence and influencing factors of bone loss in patients with spinal cord injury (SCI). METHODS: A retrospective case-control study was conducted. Patients with SCI in our hospital from January 2019 to March 2023 were collected. According to the correlation between bone mineral density (BMD) at different sites, the patients were divided into the lumbar spine group and the hip joint group. According to the BMD value, the patients were divided into the normal bone mass group (t > -1.0 standard deviation) and the osteopenia group (t ≤ -1.0 standard deviation). The influencing factors accumulated as follows: gender, age, height, weight, cause of injury, injury segment, injury degree, time after injury, start time of rehabilitation, motor score, sensory score, spasticity, serum value of alkaline phosphatase, calcium, and phosphorus. The trend chart was drawn and the influencing factors were analyzed. SPSS 26.0 was used for statistical analysis. Correlation analysis was used to test the correlation between the BMD values of the lumbar spine and bilateral hips. Binary logistic regression analysis was used to explore the influencing factors of osteoporosis after SCI. p < 0.05 was considered statistically significant. RESULTS: The incidence of bone loss in patients with SCI was 66.3%. There was a low concordance between bone loss in the lumbar spine and the hip, and the hip was particularly susceptible to bone loss after SCI, with an upward trend in incidence (36% - 82%). In this study, patients with SCI were divided into the lumbar spine group (n = 100) and the hip group (n = 185) according to the BMD values of different sites. Then, the lumbar spine group was divided into the normal bone mass group (n = 53) and the osteopenia group (n = 47); the hip joint group was divided into the normal bone mass group (n = 83) and the osteopenia group (n = 102). Of these, lumbar bone loss after SCI is correlated with gender and weight (p = 0.032 and < 0.001, respectively), and hip bone loss is correlated with gender, height, weight, and time since injury (p < 0.001, p = 0.015, 0.009, and 0.012, respectively). CONCLUSIONS The incidence of bone loss after SCI was high, especially in the hip. The incidence and influencing factors of bone loss in the lumbar spine and hip were different. Patients with SCI who are male, low height, lightweight, and long time after injury were more likely to have bone loss.

OBJECTIVES: To identify risk factors for recurrent plastic bronchitis (PB) among children with Mycoplasma pneumoniae pneumonia (MPP). METHODS: The clinical data of children with MPP complicated by PB who underwent bronchoscopy at Gansu Province Maternity and Child Health Hospital between July 2023 and January 2025 were retrospectively analyzed. Patients were grouped into a single-episode PB group and a recurrent PB group according to the number of PB episodes. Multivariable logistic regression was used to identify risk factors for recurrent PB. Receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve analysis was used to assess the diagnostic performance of individual and combined predictors. RESULTS: A total of 264 children were included; 188 (71.2%) had a single episode of PB and 76 (28.8%) had recurrent PB. Multivariable logistic regression analysis showed that decreased serum albumin, atelectasis, and fever persisting beyond 72 hours after the initial bronchoscopy were significantly associated with recurrent PB (all P<0.05). The combination of these predictors yielded a sensitivity of 82.9%, specificity of 61.7%, and an area under the ROC curve of 0.777 (95%CI: 0.714-0.839), outperforming any single predictor (P<0.05). CONCLUSIONS In children with MPP complicated by PB, decreased serum albumin, the presence of atelectasis, and fever persisting beyond 72 hours after the initial bronchoscopy are associated with an increased risk of PB recurrence. In such cases, early repeat or multiple bronchoscopic interventions should be considered.

Objective:In the context of China's cardiovascular disease(CVD)high-risk population screening and intervention project,this study systematically evaluates the applicability of the EQ-5D-5L and SF-6Dv2 instruments among individuals at high risk of CVD.Methods:Convergent validity was assessed using Spearman's correlation coefficient.Measurement agreement was evaluated through intraclass correlation coefficients(ICC)and Bland-Altman plots.Factors influencing utility differences were explored using multiple linear regression analysis.Kruskal-Wallis test and t-test were used to examine discriminant validity.Sensitivity was compared by effect size(ES),relative efficiency(RE),and the area under the receiver operating characteristic curve(ROC-AUC).Floor and ceiling effects were also compared.Results:Among 5,415 individuals at high risk of CVD,the two instruments showed moderate overall correlation and acceptable convergent validity,but dimension-specific correlations were weak,and measurement consistency was low(ICC=0.367).Both instruments effectively distinguished different health states,yet the SF-6Dv2 demonstrated superior sensitivity and a milder ceiling effect.Conclusion:When measuring the health utility value of CVD patients,scale selection should be cautious,especially for high-risk groups,and SF-6Dv2 is more appropriate.

Body weight abnormalities, including overweight, obesity, and underweight, have become a dual public health challenge in Chinese adults: overweight and obesity lead to a variety of chronic complications, while underweight increases the risks of malnutrition, sarcopenia, and organ dysfunction. To systematically address these issues, multidisciplinary experts in endocrinology, sports science, nutrition, and psychiatry from various regions have held multiple weight management seminars. Based on the latest epidemiological data and clinical evidence, they expanded the guideline to include assessment and intervention strategies for underweight, in addition to the core content of obesity management. This guideline outlines the etiological mechanisms, evaluation methods, and multidimensional management strategies for overweight and obesity, covering key areas such as diagnosis and assessment, medical nutrition therapy, exercise prescription, pharmacological intervention, and psychological support. It is intended to provide a scientific and standardized approach to weight management across the adult population, aiming to curb the rising prevalence of obesity, mitigate complications associated with abnormal body weight, and improve nutritional status and overall quality of life.

Objective To investigate the effect of individual pretreatment of preoperative medical multi-dimensional carbohydrates on intraoperative body temperature in elderly patients with hip replacement under general anesthesia. Methods A total of 81 elderly patients who underwent unilateral hip replacement in Yancheng Third People's Hospital from January 2022 to June 2024 were selected as the study subjects,and they were randomly divided into the conventional group and the pretreatment group. Both groups of patients were given routine fasting and drinking restriction before operation,and patients in the pretreatment group were given individual pretreatment of 5 mL/kg medical multi-dimensional carbohydrates 2 hours before anesthesia. The perioperative related indicators,body temperature,intraoperative hypothermia,adverse reactions during the recovery period,and pre-anesthesia gastric antral ultrasound examination results of patients in the two groups were compared. Results There was no statistically significant difference in the surgical time or intraoperative intravenous fluid infusion between the two groups (P>0.05). The anesthesia recovery time,tracheal extubation time and intraoperative bleeding volume of patients in the pretreatment group were significantly shorter/less than those in the conventional group (P<0.05). At 30 minutes,60 minutes and the end of the surgery,the body temperature of patients in the pretreatment group was significantly higher than that in the conventional group (P<0.05),and the incidences of intraoperative hypothermia and shivering in the pretreatment group were significantly lower than those in the conventional group (P<0.05). There was no statistically significant difference in the cross-sectional area (CSA) of gastric antrum,gastric volume (GV) or ratio of gastric volume/weight (GV/W) between the two groups of patients (P>0.05). Conclusion The individual pretreatment of 5 mL/kg medical multi-dimensional carbohydrates before surgery can significantly reduce the incidence of intraoperative hypothermia in elderly patients with hip replacement under general anesthesia,promote anesthesia recovery,reduce intraoperative bleeding volume and adverse reactions,and not increase the risk of reflux aspiration.
