Objective To analyze the prevalence characteristics and influencing factors of metabolic syndrome (MS) in people aged 35-75 years in Hubei Province. Methods The follow-up data from 2016 to 2022 in the early screening and comprehensive intervention project for high-risk cardiovascular population in Hubei Province were collected. SAS 9.4 software was used to conduct 2-test and multivariate logistic regression to analyze the prevalence of MS and its influencing factors. Results Among the 89 199 subjects, 24 757 were affected by MS, with a prevalence rate of 27.75% and a standardized rate of 23.55%. Among the various components of MS, the prevalence of abnormal blood pressure was the highest, at 70.88%, and the standardized rate was 59.32%. Secondly, abnormal blood glucose was 36.26%, and the standardized rate was 30.04%. Central obesity was 33.12%, and the standardized rate was 30.28%. Hypertriglyceridemia was 32.90%, and the standardized prevalence rate was 32.70%. The rate of low HDL-C syndrome was 10.25%, and the standardized rate was 11.67%. The results of multivariate logistic regression analysis showed that the risk of MS increased with age, and the risk of MS in urban residents was lower than that in rural residents (OR=0.835, 95%CI: 0.77-0.886). Administrative and professional workers had a higher risk of MS than farmers (OR=1.313, 95%CI:1.194-1.445). Overweight, obesity, central obesity, history of self-reported hypertension, history of self-reported diabetes, and history of self-reported dyslipidemia were associated with a higher risk of MS, and the differences were statistically significant (P < 0.001). Conclusion The prevalence of MS is high in people aged 35-75 years in Hubei Province. On the basis of comprehensive intervention, focus monitoring should be strengthened to control the risk factors of MS and reduce the risk of cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases.

Objective:To investigate the intervention effect of five elements music of traditional Chinese medicine and western classical music on the sleep quality of stroke patients, and to compare the difference between the two, to provide a reference for the clinical care measures to improve the sleep quality of stroke patients.Methods:By adopting a randomized controlled trial, 75 stroke patients who were hospitalized in the rehabilitation hospital of the Second Affiliated Hospital of Shandong University of Traditional Chinese Medicine from July 2022 to July 2023 were selected by convenience sampling method as the study subjects, and the patients were randomly divided the conventional treatment group, the five-element music group, and the classical music group according to the method of randomized numerical table with 25 cases in each group. On the basis of general treatment, the conventional treatment group took sleep health education, the five elements music group were given five-element music intervention based on conventional treatment, and the classical music group were given classical music intervention based on conventional treatment. The changes of Athens Insomnia Scale (AIS), Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index (PSQI) and polysomnography (PSG) examination parameters in the 3 groups were compared.Results:There were 2 cases of shedding in the conventional treatment group, and 23 cases were finally included, 15 males and 8 females, aged (54.02 ± 7.80) years; there were no cases of shedding in the five-element music group, and 25 cases were finally included, 12 males and 13 females, aged (53.69 ± 6.02) years; and there was 1 case of shedding in the classical music group, and 24 cases were finally included, 10 males and 14 females, aged (52.34 ± 7.08) years. Comparison of AIS, PSQI and PSG scores among the 3 groups of patients before intervention showed no statistically significant differences (all P>0.05). After the intervention, the AIS scores and PSQI scores of the 3 groups were (9.48 ± 1.53) and (12.22 ± 2.94), (6.76 ± 1.36) and (7.64 ± 2.08), (7.46 ± 1.38) and (10.33 ± 2.82), respectively, and the differences were statistically significant ( F=23.21, 18.44, both P<0.05). PSG sleep structure parameters showed that the total sleep time, REM latency time and sleep efficiency of the patients in the five-element music group after the intervention were (399.89 ± 51.76) min, (136.26 ± 25.36) min, (78.87 ± 8.21)%, higher than (368.45 ± 47.88) min, (124.46 ± 26.25) min, (73.36 ± 7.86)% in the classical music group and (345.48 ± 38.69) min, (111.37 ± 23.23) min, (69.44 ± 7.88)% in the conventional treatment group, and the differences between three groups were statistically significant ( F=8.27, 5.93, and 8.49, all P<0.05); the sleep latency time, awakening time, and number of awakenings in the five-element music group were (28.86 ± 17.68) min, (54.37 ± 25.15) min, and (2.72 ± 1.19) times, respectively, which were lower than those in the classical music group (35.67 ± 16.99) min, (64.28 ± 29.34) min, and (3.67 ± 1.12) times and (42.38 ± 18.96) min, (78.38 ± 37.26) min, (4.87 ± 1.46) times in the conventional treatment group, and the differences between three groups were statistically significant ( F=3.51, 3.66, and 17.56, all P<0.05). The results of the PSG sleep progression showed that the duration of the N1 stage of sleep in the five-element music group after the intervention was (95.71 ± 15.23) min, which was higher than (83.20 ± 18.34) min in the classical music group and (80.93 ± 16.47) min in the conventional treatment group, and the difference between three groups was statistically significant ( F=5.53, P<0.01); the N3 stage sleep time and the sleep percentage of the five-element music group after the intervention were respectively (84.23 ± 20.98) min and (23.98 ± 5.89)%, which were higher than (65.33 ± 18.82) min and (18.34 ± 3.78)% in the classical music group and (45.87 ± 18.65) min and (15.03 ± 5.56)% in the conventional treatment group, and the differences between three groups were statistically significant ( F=23.08, 18.50, both P<0.05).

Inflammatory lung diseases are cur-rently a major challenge threatening human health and life.Imbalanced inflammation and excessive in-flammation can lead to tissue damage and trigger the occurrence and development of systemic dis-eases.Anti-inflammatory treatment is of vital im-portance for improving patient survival and quality of life.In recent years,significant progress has been made in the exploration and research of drug targeting strategies,effectively addressing issues such as slow onset,low bioavailability,and rapid in vivo clearance rates during drug delivery.Drug tar-geting can increase local drug concentrations,re-duce dosing frequency,and mitigate side effects.This review primarily elaborates on the classifica-tion and characteristics of inflammatory lung dis-eases.It comprehensively reviews targeted drug de-livery strategies for inflammatory lung diseases from three perspectives:local targeting,passive tar-geting,and active targeting.Furthermore,it dis-cusses the prospects and challenges of drug target-ed therapy for lung diseases,potentially providing new research and application ideas for the target-ed treatment of inflammatory lung diseases.

Objective:To study the risk factors of thyroid nodules in patients with type 2 diabetes.Methods:Data of patients with type 2 diabetes with normal thyroid function admitted to the Department of Endocrinology of Heze Municipal Hospital from January to June 2024 were collected. Binary logistic regression was used to analyze the influencing factors of thyroid nodules in patients with type 2 diabetes, and the receiver operating characteristic curve (ROC curve) was used to evaluate the diagnostic efficacy of each influencing factor.Results:Among 162 patients with type 2 diabetes, 96 had thyroid nodules, accounting for 59.3%. The incidence of thyroid nodules in women was significantly higher than that in men (χ 2 = 4.56, P = 0.034). Multivariate logistic regression analysis showed that age (≥50 years old), overweight and obesity [body mass index (BMI)≥24.0 kg/m 2], high glycated hemoglobin (≥10%), and high total cholesterol ( > 6.5 mmol/L) were independent risk factors for thyroid nodules in patients with type 2 diabetes ( OR = 1.83, 1.67, 1.08, 3.65, P < 0.05), and men was an independent protective factor ( OR = 0.63, P = 0.039). The ROC curve results showed that total cholesterol and total cholesterol combined with glycated hemoglobin could distinguish patients with thyroid nodules from those without thyroid nodules, with AUC = 0.64 and 0.68, respectively, and the differences were statistically significant ( P < 0.05). Conclusions:The incidence of thyroid nodules in patients with type 2 diabetes is relatively high. Age, overweight and obesity, high glycated hemoglobin, and high total cholesterol are independent risk factors for thyroid nodules in patients with type 2 diabetes, and total cholesterol has the ability to distinguish patients with thyroid nodules.

Objective:To explore the associations of temperature, relative humidity, and their interaction effect with fall risk.Methods:Data on fall cases were collected using the national injury surveillance system from May to September, in 2006-2022 in Hubei Province. Combined with the meteorological and air pollution data, we conducted a time-stratified case-crossover design and used conditional logistic regression models and distributed lag nonlinear models to examine the exposure-response relationships between temperature, humidity, and fall risk. We further divided the low and the high temperature groups and the low and the high relative humidity groups and analyzed the excess risk ( ER) of falls attributed to dry-hot or wet-hot events. Finally, we calculated the additive interactions of temperature and humidity on fall risk. Results:A total of 55 401 fall cases were included. With the increase in temperature and relative humidity decrease, the exposure-response curves of fall showed nonlinear upward trends among all populations. Gender and age differences were found in temperature-fall and relative humidity-fall risk relationships. Compared with wet-non-hot (normal temperature and high relative humidity) events, the ER of fall in dry-hot (high temperature and low relative humidity) events was 14.80% (95% CI: 9.69%- 20.15%), and the ER of wet-hot (high temperature and high relative humidity) events was 9.59% (95% CI: 2.52%-17.13%). However, there was no statistically significant difference between dry-hot and wet-hot events in the fall, and no statistically significant difference between different genders, ages, occupations, and fall occurred place (all P>0.05). No significant synergistic additive interaction was found between temperature and relative humidity on fall risk (relative excess risk due to interaction=-0.08, 95% CI: -0.19-0.02). Conclusions:Higher temperatures and lower relative humidity were associated with increased fall risk. Both dry-hot and wet-hot events had a higher risk of fall, while high temperature and low humidity have no synergistic effect on fall risk.

Pseudorabies (PR) is an infectious disease caused by the pseudorabies virus (PRV), affecting various domesticated and wild animals. Since pigs are the only natural hosts of PRV, PR poses a serious threat to the pig farming industry. Currently, PR is primarily prevented through vaccination with inactivated vaccines or genetically modified attenuated live vaccines. Developing safe and effective genetically engineered vaccines would facilitate the eradication and control of PR. In this study, the PRV vaccine strain Bartha-K61 was used as the reference strain. The gB protein was expressed via the baculovirus-insect cell expression system. Non-denaturing gel electrophoresis confirmed that the gB protein could form a trimeric structure. The purified gB protein was used to immunize mice, and the immune effect was evaluated by a challenge test. The results showed that the gB antigen induced a strong immune response in mice, with the serum-neutralizing antibody titer above 1:70. The lymphocyte stimulation index reached more than 1.29, and the level of (interferon gamma, IFN-γ) release was higher than 100 pg/mL. After immunization, mice were challenged with the virus at a dose of 10⁴ TCID₅₀/mL, 200 μL per mouse, and the clinical protection rate was 100%. Immunohistochemistry, histopathological section, and tissue viral load results showed that the pathological damage and viral load in the gB-immunized group were significantly lower than those in the PBS group. In summary, the gB protein obtained in this study induced strong humoral and cellular immune responses in mice, laying a foundation for developing a recombinant gB protein subunit vaccine.

Objective To investigate influencing factors for failed cardiopulmonary resuscitation(CPR)in patients with respiratory and cardiac arrest.Methods A retrospective analysis was con-ducted on the clinical data of 204 patients with respiratory and cardiac arrest.All patients underwent CPR treatment and were divided into success group and failure group based on the CPR outcome.A matched case-control study based on matching design was carried out.The success and failure groups were matched at a ratio of 1 to 2 using gender,age,body mass index(BMI),and the presence or absence of hypertension,hyperlipidemia,and diabetes as covariates.Logistic regression analysis was employed to explore the influencing factors for failed CPR in patients with respiratory and cardiac ar-rest.Results Among the 204 patients,65(31.86％)had successful CPR and were included in success group,while 139(68.14％)had failed CPR and were included in failure group.After a rati-o of 1 to 2 matching design,62 patients in the success group and 124 patients in the failure group were finally included in the study.Multivariate logistic regression analysis revealed that cardiovascular disease as the cause of respiratory and cardiac arrest,CPR performed outside the hospital,a long time interval from the onset of the condition to the initiation of CPR,and a large dose of epinephrine were independent risk factors for failed CPR(P＜0.05).In contrast,the combined use of a bag-mask de-vice and endotracheal intubation during respiratory and cardiac arrest,a prolonged duration of CPR,and electrical defibrillation were independent protective factors for successful CPR(P＜0.05).Con-clusion Cardiovascular disease,out-of-hospital CPR,a long time interval from the onset of the condi-tion to the initiation of CPR,and a large dose of epinephrine are risk factors for failed CPR in patients with respiratory and cardiac arrest.The combined use of a bag-mask device and endotracheal intubation during respiratory and cardiac arrest,prolonging the duration of CPR,and electrical defibrillation are protective factors for successful CPR.The matched case-control study method based on a matc-hing design can reduce the interference of confounding factors,ensure the reliability of the results,and provide a reliable basis for the formulation of CPR intervention protocols.

Objective To investigate the effect of Yiqi Fumai Injection combined with atorvastatin on cardiac function in elderly coronary heart disease patients with angina of Qi-Yin deficiency pat-tern.Methods A total of 122 elderly coronary heart disease patients with angina pectoris of Qi-Yin deficiency pattern admitted to our department from September 2022 to September 2023 were recruited and randomly divided into control group and observation group,with 61 cases in each group.The control group was treated with atorvastatin,and the observation group was treated with Yiqi Fumai Injection on the basis of atorvastatin.Clinical efficacy,blood lipids,B-type natri-uretic peptide level,myocardial enzymes,cardiac function,and inflammatory factors were com-pared between the two groups.Results The total effective rate was significantly higher in the observation group than the control group(95.08％vs 80.33％,x2=6.157,P＜0.05).After 4 weeks of treatment,the observation group had obviously lower levels of total cholesterol,triglyc-erides,low-density cholesterol,B-type natriuretic peptide,lactate dehydrogenase,creatine kinase,creatine kinase isoenzyme,C-reactive protein,interleukin-6 and tumor necrosis factor-α,left ven-tricular end systolic diameter,left ventricular end-diastolic diameter and left ventricular end sys-tolic volume(P＜0.05,P＜0.01),and notably higher high-density cholesterol level and left ven-tricular ejection fraction when compared with the control group(1.44±0.39 mmol/L vs 1.23±0.30 mmol/L,P=0.001;55.36±13.37％vs 50.29±10.44％,P=0.021).Conclusion Yiqi Fumai Injection combined with atorvastatin shows significantly effective in the treatment of elderly coro-nary heart disease patients with angina pectoris of Qi-Yin deficiency pattern,and can improve lipid metabolism,B-type natriuretic peptide,myocardial enzymes and cardiac function,and reduce in-flammatory factors.

Objective:To investigate the effect of chlorogenic acid on atherosclerosis (AS) in a mouse model.Methods:Twenty-four specific pathogen-free male ApoE-/- mice were adaptively fed for 1 week and then randomly divided into three groups ( n=8 per group): The model group, the atorvastatin group, and the chlorogenic acid group. All three groups were fed with a high-fat diet. Eight male C57BL/6N wild-type mice served as the control group and were fed with a standard diet. After 8 weeks, the atorvastatin group received intragastric administration of a solution containing 0.9% sodium chloride +2.6 mg/kg atorvastatin at 10 mL/kg, while the chlorogenic acid group received 0.9% sodium chloride +200 mg/kg chlorogenic acid at 10 mL/kg. The control and model groups were given an equal volume of 0.9% sodium chloride once a day. After 9 weeks of continuous treatment, the mice were anesthetized, and the aortas were collected for Oil Red O staining. Image J was used to measure plaque area and total vascular area, and the percentage was calculated. Liver tissues were subjected to hematoxylin-eosin (H&E) staining to observe pathological changes. Blood samples from the abdominal aorta were collected to measure lipid profiles [total cholesterol (TC), triglycerides (TG), high-density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL-C), and low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C)], liver function markers [aspartate aminotransferase (AST), alanine aminotransferase (ALT), alkaline phosphatase (ALP)], and inflammatory cytokines [interleukin-6 (IL-6), IL-1β, tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF-α)]. Non-HDL-C levels were calculated as TC minus HDL-C. Results:Aortic lipid plaque area: The model group exhibited a significantly higher plaque area than the control group [(44.91±1.91)% vs. (0.21±0.11)%]. Both the atorvastatin group [(15.00±1.29)%] and the chlorogenic acid group [(26.13±2.16)%] showed reduced plaque areas compared to the model group ( P<0.05). Liver pathology: The control group displayed intact hepatocyte structure with regular morphology, whereas the model group exhibited significant steatosis. Both the atorvastatin and chlorogenic acid groups showed alleviated liver damage compared to the model group. Blood lipid levels: The model group had higher TC, TG, HDL-C, LDL-C, and non-HDL-C levels than the control group [(30.3±4.0) mmol/L vs. (2.8±0.3) mmol/L, (1.26±0.32) mmol/L vs. (0.52±0.12) mmol/L, (3.02±0.39) mmol/L vs. (2.00±0.17) mmol/L, (14.87±5.23) mmol/L vs. (0.39±0.09) mmol/L, (27.3±4.0) mmol/L vs. (0.8±0.3) mmol/L, respectively]. Both the atorvastatin group [(24.0±3.1), (0.64±0.08), (2.04±0.41), (8.55±1.15), (22.0±3.2) mmol/L] and the chlorogenic acid group [(23.3±2.5), (0.88±0.14), (2.28±0.18), (8.90±0.29), (21.0±2.5) mmol/L] showed lower levels than the model group ( P<0.05). The model group had higher ALT, AST, and ALP levels than the control group [(274±43) U/L vs. (99±14) U/L, (130±66) U/L vs. (38±4) U/L, (86±15) U/L vs. (60±5) U/L, respectively]. Both the atorvastatin group [(139±12), (58±16), (69±5) U/L] and the chlorogenic acid group [(138±11), (55±16), (54±5) U/L] exhibited lower levels than the model group ( P<0.05). Inflammatory cytokines: The model group had higher IL-6, IL-1β, and TNF-α levels than the control group [(238±15) ng/L vs. (202±7) ng/L, (211±6) ng/L vs. (174±6) ng/L, (1 325±75) ng/L vs. (1 036±75) ng/L, respectively]. Both the atorvastatin group [(215±9), (191±4), (1 163±78) ng/L] and the chlorogenic acid group [(220±13), (195±7), (1 197±53) ng/L] showed reduced levels compared to the model group (all P<0.05). Conclusion:Chlorogenic acid may inhibit aortic lipid plaque deposition and ameliorate AS in mice by improving lipid metabolism and suppressing inflammatory responses.

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.
