Objective To explore the effects of nicotinamide mononucleotide （NMN） on hypertensive rats. Methods Two rat hypertension models including spontaneously hypertensive rats（SHR）and two-kidney two-clip （2K2C） rats were used to be given single, long-term or lifelong administration of NMN respectively. NMN’s effects were assessed comprehensively by monitoring survival time, blood pressure levels, and the extent of organ damage in hypertensive model rats. Results It was revealed that NMN did not exhibit protective effects in terms of lowering blood pressure levels, reducing organ damage or increasing survival time in hypertensive rats. Conclusion This study suggested that NMN did not demonstrate anti-hypertensive effects in rat hypertension models and could provide valuable insights for future clinical observation on NMN.

Objective To investigate the expression levels of LINC02009 and LOC107984895 in peripheral lymphocytes of patients with atrial fibrillation and their clinical significance.Methods A total of 75 hospitalized patients with atrial fibrillation(50 with persistent atrial fibrillation and 25 with paroxysmal atrial fibrillation)from Kunming First People's Hospital between January 2023 and December 2023 were selected as study subjects,along with 50 normal control patients.Real-time quantitative PCR was used to detect the expression levels of LINC02009 and LOC107984895 in peripheral blood leukocytes of patients with atrial fibrillation.Logistic regression analysis was employed to assess the relationship between expression levels and risk factors for atrial fibrillation,and ROC curves were used to predict the diagnostic cut-off values for LINC02009 and LOC107984895 in diagnosing atrial fibrillation.Results There were statistically significant differences in baseline diseases such as hypertension and coronary heart disease,biochemical indicators such as Cr and BNP,and myocardial remodeling indicators such as LAd and LVEF between the AF(paroxysmal atrial fibrillation and persistent atrial fibrillation)group and the Normal group(P＜0.05).The expression levels of LINC02009 and LOC 107984895 in the plasma of the atrial fibrillation group were significantly higher than those in the control group(P＜0.05)and were negatively correlated with LVEF(P＜0.05).The areas under the curve(AUC)of LINC02009 and LOC 107984895 in predicting atrial fibrillation were 0.967(95％CI:0.938～0.995)and 0.900(95％CI:0.838～0.963),respectively.The optimal cut-off values were 1.985 and 0.915,with sensitivities of 88％and 76％,respectively,and specificities of 94％and 90％,respectively.Conclusion LINC02009 and LOC 107984895 are independent risk factors for atrial fibrillation and have certain predictive value for the occurrence of atrial fibrillation.

Objective To evaluate the prevention and control effectiveness of four major chronic diseases in Youyang County, and find the weak link of prevention and control, and to provide theoretical support for improving prevention and control strategies. Methods Based on the death data of permanent residents from 2012 to 2020 extracted from the cause-of-death registration and reporting system of Youyang County, a statistical analysis was conducted using SPSS19.0. The annual percentage change (APC) was tested by t-test. Results From 2012 to 2020, the mortality rate of and the standardized mortality rate of the four major chronic diseases and the premature mortality rate of diabetes in males showed an increasing trend (APC was 3.05%, 1.82% and 27.12%, respectively, P < 0.05). The mortality rate of the four chronic diseases in females increased (APC was 2.53%, P < 0.05), while the proportion of premature death of the four chronic diseases and the probability of premature death of cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases in females decreased (APC was -2.37%, -5.73%, P < 0.05). The standardized mortality rate and premature death rate of the four major chronic diseases were higher in males than those in females. The mortality rate of the four major chronic diseases and the premature death rate of diabetes in the whole population were on the rise (APC was 2.84% and 12.86%, P < 0.05). It was expected that the early death probability of the four major chronic diseases in Youyang County would be 12.65% in 2030, higher than the target value of 12.59% of ^“Healthy China 2030^”. Conclusion The future focus of Youyang County is to prevent and control malignant tumors and diabetes, especially to strengthen the prevention and control of male diabetes.

Primary female genital system lymphoma(PFGSL)is a rare subtype of extranodal lymphoma and patients commonly present in the department of gynecology.At present,there is a lack of uniform standards for the treatment of PFGSL.Although the classification of lymphoid neoplasmas was updated by the World Health Organization classification of haematolymphoid tumors in 2016,PFGSL was still not elaborated in sufficient detail.Most cases of PFGSL are non-Hodgkin lymphoma,involving the ovary and cervix.In some cases,involvement of uterine corpus,vagina,and vulva is reported.In this article,we report two cases of non-Hodgkin lymphoma in the female genital system,one from the uterus and the other from the ovary.By presenting the diagnosis and treatment of the two cases and reviewing the literature,we aim to provide a reference for clinicians in recognizing and treating rare cases.
