Objective To investigate the potential beneficial predictors for endovascular treatment(EVT)in case of acute anterior circulation large vessel occlusion with large-core infarction.Methods We made a retrospective inclusion of 92 patients with anterior circulation large vessel occlusion and core infarct volume ranging from 50 to 100 mL,who underwent EVT at Zhangzhou Municipal Hospital of Fujian Province from March 2018 to February 2021.All the patients were confirmed as anterior circulation large infarction and large infarct volume using computed tomography(CT),computed tomography angiography(CTA),and computed tomography perfusion(CTP)before EVT.All clinical and imaging data were collected to observe the postoperative recurrence rate,incidence of symptomatic intracranial hemorrhage(sICH),and functional prognosis 90 days.Then the patients were divided into favorable outcomes group(mRS≤3)and unfavorable outcomes group(mRS＞3)based on Rankin scores 90 days post-stroke.Univariate and multivariate Logistic analysis were conducted to analyze factors influencing the patients'prognosis.By combining the results of multivariate analysis,we constructed receiver operating characteristic(ROC)curves and identified the cut-off value to evaluate the predictive value of age for post-vascular treatment prognosis.Results Among the included patients,the postoperative revascularization rate(mTIICI≥2b)was 95％(88 cases),the rate of favorable outcomes at 90 days postoperatively(mRS≤3)was 32.61％(30 cases),the incidence of sICH was 13％,and the mortality rate was 31.5％.Compared with the unfavorable outcomes group,the favorable outcomes group had a younger age and a higher proportion of males.Multivariate analysis indicated that older age was an independent risk factor for adverse outcomes following endovascular treatment(OR=4.97,95％CI:1.78-13.90,P=0.002).The ROC curve indicated that the area under the curve was maximized at the age of 72.5 years(AUC=0.763,95％CI:0.661-0.864,P＜0.001).Its sensitivity and specificity was 0.565 and 0.833,respectively.Conclusion Age is an independent predictor of the prognosis of acute procirculatory large core stroke.Patients with large core infarction older than 72.5 years may not benefit from endovascular therapy,which needs to be confirmed by a multicenter large sample prospective randomized controlled trial.

To investigate the anti-atherosclerotic effects of dietary hesperidin and naringin on ather-osclerosis in rabbits.Twenty-four adult healthy male New Zealand Large White rabbits were ran-domly assigned to four groups based on one factor:control(Con),model(Mod),hesperidin(HP),and naringenin(NG),each containing six rabbits and housed in solitary cages.During the experi-mental period,the control group received normal feed;the model group was fed high-fat for 30 d to establish the atherosclerosis,(AS)model and continued to be fed high-fat feed;the hesperidin and naringenin groups were fed high-fat for 30 d and then underwent AS modeling,and at a later stage,150 mg of hesperidin(or naringenin)was added to the diets at a rate of 1.5 mg per kg of di-et,respectively,for 30 d.Relative body quality,blood lipids,oxidation,and inflammatory factor lev-els were all assessed.At the end of the test period,the test rabbits were sacrificed to obtain the common carotid artery for histopathological section HE staining,Oil red O staining,and Sirius red staining in order to observe vascular tissue structure,lipid and inflammatory cell infiltration,and e-lastic plate and elastic fiber damage.The results indicated that the relative body quality of the mod-el,HP and NG groups increased rapidly,and the difference with the control group within the same period was highly significant(P＜0.01);The HP and NG interventions significantly decreased to-tal cholesterol(TC)and low-density lipoprotein cholesterol(LDL-C)levels(P＜0.01),while also leading to a significant increase in high-density lipoprotein cholesterol(HDL-C)levels(P＜0.01);MDA levels exhibited a significant decrease(P＜0.01),while SOD levels showed a notable in-crease(P＜0.01)following the HP and NG interventions;After HP and NG interventions,TNF-α and IL-1 were regressed(P＜0.01)and IL-10 was significantly elevated(P＜0.01);Compared with the control group,the model group showed approximately 41.8 and 2.5 fold thickening of the maximal endo-medial membrane,respectively,and the HP and NG interventions showed approxi-mately 13 and 15 fold thickening of the maximal endo-medial membrane,and both of the maximal medial membranes thickened by approximately 1.4 fold;Staining of pathological sections showed that HP and NG intervened to significantly reduce inflammatory cell infiltration,deposition of lipid components,slight thickening of the endothelium,and intact fibroblastic components.The results showed that the addition of HP and NG to diets could regulate blood lipids and exert anti-inflam-matory and antioxidant effects by inhibiting the expression of inflammatory factors and oxidizing factors,showing significant anti-AS effects,and the two effects were comparable.

Background The active metabolite of benzo[a]pyrene (BaP), 7,8-dihydroxy-9,10-epoxybenzo[a]pyrene (BPDE), can form adducts with DNA, but the spectrum of BPDE-DNA adducts is unclear. Objective To identify the distribution of BPDE adduct sites and associated genes at the whole-genome level by chromatin immunoprecipitation followed by sequencing (ChIP-Seq), and serve as a basis for further exploring the toxicological mechanisms of BaP. Methods Human bronchial epithelial-like cells (16HBE) were cultured to the fourth generation inthe logarithmic growth phase. Cells were harvested and added to chromatin immunoprecipitation lysis buffer. The lysate was divided into experimental and control groups. The experimental group received a final concentration of 20 μmol·L⁻¹ BPDE solution, while the control group received an equivalent volume of dimethyl sulfoxide solution. The cells were then incubated at 37 °C for 24 h. Chromatin fragments of 100-500 bp were obtained through sonication. BPDE-specific antibody (anti-BPDE 8E11) was used to enrich DNA fragments with BPDE adducts. High-throughput sequencing was conducted to detect BPDE adduct sites. The top 1000 peak sequences were subjected to motif analysis using MEME and DREME software. BPDE adduct target genes at the whole-genome level were annotated, and Gene Ontology (GO) functional analysis and Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes (KEGG) pathway analysis of BPDE adduct target genes were conducted using bioinformatics techniques. Results The high-throughput sequencing detected a total of 842 BPDE binding sites, distributed across various chromosomes. BPDE covalently bound to both coding and non-coding regions of genes, with 73.9% binding sites located in intergenic regions, 19.6% in intronic regions, and smaller proportions in upstream 2 kilobase, exonic, downstream 2 kilobase, and 5' untranslated regions. Regarding the top 1000 peak sequences, four reliable motifs were identified, revealing that sites rich in adenine (A) and guanine (G) were prone to binding. Through the enrichment analysis of binding sites, a total of 199 BPDE-adduct target genes were identified, with the majority located on chromosomes 1, 5, 7, 12, 17, and X. The GO analysis indicated that these target genes were mainly enriched in nucleic acid and protein binding, participating in the regulation of catalytic activity, transport activity, translation elongation factor activity, and playing important roles in cell division, differentiation, motility, substance transport, and information transfer. The KEGG analysis revealed that these target genes were primarily enriched in pathways related to cardiovascular diseases, cancer, and immune-inflammatory responses. Conclusion Using ChIP-Seq, 199 BPDE adduct target genes at genome-wide level are identified, impacting biological functions such as cell division, differentiation, motility, substance transport, and information transfer. These genes are closely associated with cardiovascular diseases, tumors, and immune-inflammatory responses.

Objective:This study aimed to summarize the clinical characteristics and prognosis of patients with bone marrow invasive follicular lymphoma (FL) and discuss the treatment modalities.Methods:This study included 183 consecutive patients with FL accompanied by bone marrow invasion and receiving regular treatment at the Hospital of Hematology, Chinese Academy of Medical Sciences, from January 2013 to December 2022. Clinical data were retrospectively collected and analyzed, and single and multifactorial analyses of survival prognosis were conducted with the Kaplan-Meier method and Cox regression model.Results:The median age was 48 (range: 19 - 78) years, and the male-to-female ratio was 0.9∶1. All of the patients had bone marrow invasion, 27.8% had increased lactate dehydrogenase levels, 42.1% had lymphocyte counts of >5×10 9/L, 18.4% had abnormal chromosomal karyotypes, and 48.6% had Ki-67 index of ≥30% in lymphoid tissue. Comparison of different subgroups: lymphocyte counts of >5×10 9/L, number of lymph nodes of ≥5 involved, and proportion of bone marrow chromosomal abnormalities occurring were higher in the anthracycline-intensive treatment group than in the rituximab, cyclophosphamide, doxorubicin, vincristine, and prednisone (R-CHOP) protocol and the nucleoside analog (including CD20 monoclonal antibody in combination with fludarabine and bendamustine) groups (all P<0.05). The complete remission rate was 39.1% in the conventional R-CHOP group, which was lower and statistically significant than that in the intensive treatment group (55.1%) and the nucleoside analog group (62.5%) ( P=0.042). The multivariate analysis for survival analysis revealed high risk of FLIPI ( HR= 1.910, 95% CI 1.036 - 3.522, P=0.036), chromosomal abnormalities karyotype ( HR=2.666, 95% CI 1.333-5.331, P=0.006), and conventional R-CHOP treatment ( HR=2.287, 95% CI 1.140-4.591, P=0.020) were the independent adverse prognostic factors affecting progression-free survival (PFS), whereas POD24 was the only independent adverse prognostic factor affecting overall survival (OS) adverse prognostic factor ( HR=9.581, 95% CI 3.000 - 30.593, P<0.001) . Conclusions:The clinical presentations of patients with bone marrow invasive FL were easy to combine the clinical features, including increased lymphocyte count, chromosomal abnormalities, and Ki-67 index in lymphoid tissues. The FLIPI score, chromosomal abnormal karyotype, and high-lymphoid-tissue Ki-67 index were the poor prognostic factors influencing PFS. R-CHOP therapy demonstrated a poor prognosis in this group of patients.

Objective:To investigate serum vitamin A and vitamin D status in children aged 2-<7 years in 20 cities in China.Methods:A cross-sectional study was conducted. A total of 2 924 healthy children aged 2-<7 years were recruited from September 2018 to September 2019 from 20 cities in China, categorized by age groups of 2-<3 years, 3-<5 years, and 5-<7 years. The demographic and economic characteristics and health-related information of the enrolled children were investigated. Body weight and height were measured by professional staff members. The serum vitamin A and vitamin D levels were detected by high-performance liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry. Chi-square test and Logistic regression were applied to analyze the association between vitamin A and vitamin D deficiency and insufficiency as well as their underlying impact factors.Results:The age of the 2 924 enrolled children was 4.33 (3.42, 5.17) years. There were 1 726 males (59.03%) and 1 198 females (40.97%). The prevalences of vitamin A and vitamin D deficiency in enrolled children were 2.19% (64/2 924) and 3.52% (103/2 924), respectively, and the insufficiency rates were 29.27% (856/2 924) and 22.20% (649/2 924), respectively. Children with both vitamin A and vitamin D deficiencies or insufficiencies were found in 10.50% (307/2 924) of cases. Both vitamin A ( χ2=7.91 and 8.06, both P=0.005) and vitamin D ( χ2=71.35 and 115.10, both P<0.001) insufficiency rates were higher in children aged 3-<5 and 5-<7 years than those in children aged 2-<3 years. Vitamin A and vitamin D supplementation in the last 3 months was a protective factor for vitamin A and D deficiency and insufficiency, respectively ( OR=0.68 and 0.22, 95% CI 0.49-0.95 and 0.13-0.40, both P<0.05). The rates of vitamin A and D insufficiency was higher in children with annual household incomes <60 000 RMB than in those with annual household incomes ≥60 000 RMB ( χ2=34.11 and 10.43, both P<0.01). Northwest and Southwest had the highest rates of vitamin A and vitamin D insufficiency in children aged 2-<7 yeas, respectively ( χ2=93.22 and 202.54, both P<0.001). Conclusions:Among 20 cities in China, children aged 2-<7 years experience high rates of vitamin A and vitamin D insufficiency, which are affected by age, family economic level, vitamin A and vitamin D supplementation, and regional economic level. The current results suggest that high level of attention should be paid to vitamin A and vitamin D nutritional status of preschool children.

Objective:To explore the efficacy and safety of ibrutinib for the treatment of newly treated and relapsed refractory (R/R) lymphoplasmacytic lymphoma (LPL) /Waldenstr?m macroglobulinemia (WM) .Methods:Retrospectively collected clinical data of 98 cases of newly treated and R/R LPL/WM patients who received ibrutinib treatment at the Hematology & Blood Diseases Hospital of the Chinese Academy of Medical Sciences from March 2016 to June 2023, and analyzed their efficacy and safety.Results:A total of 98 LPL/WM patients were included, which consisted of 45 newly treated patients and 53 R/R patients. Of these, 74 were males (75.5%) and the cohort had a median age of 64 (42-87) years. Eighty-eight patients were eligible for efficacy evaluation with a median treatment time of 20.8 (2.1-55.0) months, a major remission rate (MRR) of 78.4%, and an overall response rate (ORR) of 85.2%. The MRR and ORR of the newly treated patients were 78.4% and 86.5%, respectively, whereas the MRR and ORR of the R/R patients were 78.4% and 84.3%, respectively. There were no statistically significant differences in MRR and ORR between the initial treatment and R/R patients (all P values >0.05) . The median follow-up period was 29.1 (2.9-50.3) months and the median overall survival time for newly treated and R/R patients was not reached. The median progression-free survival time was 23.5 (95% CI 10.5-36.5) months and 45.0 (95% CI 34.0-56.0) months, respectively, with no statistically significant differences (all P values >0.05) . There were 25 deceased patients and no deaths were related to ibrutinib treatment. The main adverse reactions of ibrutinib were thrombocytopenia (5.1%) , pneumonia (8.1%) , and hyperuricemia (21.4%) . The incidence of atrial fibrillation was 2.0%. Conclusion:Ibrutinib exhibits good efficacy and safety for newly treated and R/R LPL/WM patients.

Objective Explore the influence of the research professional ethics of in-service medical personnel in a terti-ary hospital in Karamay City on their cognitive integrity in scientific research,as well as the role of research quality awareness in this relationship.Methods Quantitative analysis was used.A total of 269 in-service medical personnel from a tertiary hospital in Karamay City were selected using cluster sampling.SPSS 25.0 and Process 3.5 were used for data processing.Harman's single-factor test was used to analyze whether there was common method bias in the data,and the skewness-kurtosis test was used to as-sess the normal distribution of the data.Pearson correlation analysis and mediation analysis using Process were also conducted.Results The analysis of the data revealed that the correlation coefficient between research professional ethics and research quali-ty awareness and cognitive integrity in scientific research were all 0.301(P＜0.01).Additionally,the correlation coefficient be-tween research quality awareness and cognitive integrity in scientific research was 0.303(P＜0.01).The mediation analysis on the relationship between research professional ethics,research quality awareness,and cognitive integrity in scientific research showed that research professional ethics significantly predicted cognitive integrity in scientific research.Furthermore,even after adding the mediating variable of research quality awareness,research professional ethics still predicted cognitive integrity in scien-tific research.Conclusion There is a significant positive correlation between research professional ethics,research quality aware-ness,and cognitive integrity in scientific research among in-service medical personnel in a tertiary hospital in Karamay city.Re-search quality awareness plays a mediating role between research professional ethics and cognitive integrity in scientific research.

Diabetes, hypertension, and dyslipidemia, collectively referred to the " Three Highs, " represent increasingly prevalent metabolic risk factors in China. Many individuals experience all three conditions concurrently, significantly heightening the risk of cardiovascular disease and mortality. Although the National Metabolic Management Center(MMC) has been established for over eight years and has its unique features, the awareness, treatment, and control rates of these diseases in China remain low, and the efficiency of community management is insufficient. According to the previous two editions of management guidelines and the most recent domestic and international diagnostic and treatment guidelines, this paper conducts an in-depth analysis of the operational experience and management strategies of the MMC. Its aim is to improve the efficiency of grassroots MMC mode management for " Three Highs" patients and ensure that patients receive more standardized management.
