Objective To explore the effective induction scheme for differentiation of adipose-derived mesenchymal stem cell (ADMSC) to insulin producing cell (IPC). Methods Different schemes of small molecule compound were used to induce the differentiation of ADMSC. The purity of cells was analyzed by flow cytometry and the morphological changes of cells were observed under the microscope. The quality, performance and insulin related indicators of cells were detected by hematoxylin-eosin and immunohistochemical staining. The maturity and activity of cells were detected by dithizone (DTZ) and diacetylfluorescein/propidium iodide staining. The induction effect of ADMSC differentiated into IPC was analyzed. Results The purity of ADMSC reached more than 99%, and the sphere forming properties of schemes Ⅰ, Ⅱ and Ⅲ were good. Cell induction mass, the expression effects of pancreatic and duodenal homeobox 1 (PDX1), musculoaponeurotic fibrosarcoma oncogene homolog A (MAFA) and insulin and C peptide of schemes Ⅰ were both better than those of other schemes. The DTZ staining depth may be related to IPC maturity, among which the number of apoptotic cells in scheme Ⅰ was significantly less than that of scheme Ⅱ and Ⅲ. Conclusions Induction scheme Ⅰ may improve the differentiation efficiency of ADMSC to IPC and lay a certain foundation for future clinical IPC transplantation applications.

Objective: To investigate the association between edentulism and the risk of social isolation in middle-aged and elderly populations, provide empirical evidence for formulating social isolation prevention and intervention policies targeting edentulous middle-aged and elderly populations. Methods: Data were derived from the baseline survey (2011) and three follow-ups (2013, 2015, 2018) of the China Health and Retirement Longitudinal Study (CHARLS). Participants were enrolled in the follow-up from the baseline. Those identified as socially isolated in any of the follow-up surveys conducted in 2013, 2015, or 2018 were considered to have reached the endpoint; otherwise, the follow-up was continued until the end of the 2018 survey; 9 870 individuals were ultimately included. Subjects were grouped by edentulism status. Chi-square test and multivariate Cox regression analysis were performed using Stata 17.0. Results: During a median follow-up of 6.54 years, 1 800 cases of social isolation occurred, with an incidence rate of 18.23%（17.47%~18.99%）. Multivariate Cox regression showed that edentulism was associated with an increased risk of social isolation (HR=1.21, 95% CI: 1.03-1.42) after adjusting for confounders. Subgroup analysis revealed population heterogeneity. Sensitivity analyses confirmed the stability of the results. Conclusion Edentulism is associated with an increased risk of social isolation in middle-aged and elderly adults.

Objective : To investigate the diagnostic value of linear array endoscopic ultrasonography ( EUS) for common bile duct microlithiasis． Methods : Data of patients who attended in the hospital and diagnosed as common bile duct microlithiasis and biliary sludge by EUS were selected．A total of 85 patients with magnetic resonance cholangiopancreatography ( MRCP) examination and ERCP treatment during hospitalization were enrolled．The results of endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography / endoscopic sphincterotomy ( ERCP / EST) were the gold standard for diagnosis．The results of EUS，MRCP，and diagnostic ERCP were compared with the gold standard， and the sensitivity，specificity，positive predictive value，negative predictive value，and diagnostic accuracy of the three methods were calculated，respectively．The chi-square test was used for comparison of the above indices． Results : Of all 85 patients，63 had positive EUS results，among whom 5 had false positive results; 22 had negative EUS results，among whom 1 had false negative results．Of all 85 patients，49 had positive MRCP results，among whom 4 had false positive results; 36 had negative MRCP results，among whom 14 had false negative results．Of all 85 patients，59 had positive diagnostic ERCP results，among whom 10 had false positive results; 26 had negative diagnostic ERCP results，among whom 10 had false negative results．The sensitivity，specificity，positive predictive value( PPV) ，negative predictive value ( NPV) ，and accuracy of EUS in diagnosing common bile duct microlithia- sis were 98. 3% ，80. 8% ，92. 1% ，95. 4% and 92. 9% ，respectively． For MRCP，these values were 76. 3% ， 84. 6% ，91. 8% ，61. 1% and 78. 8% ，respectively．For diagnostic ERCP，these values were 83. 1% ，61. 5% ， 83. 1% ，61. 5% and 76. 5% ，respectively．The EUS group had a significantly higher accuracy than the MRCP group ( χ2 = 6. 986，P ＜0. 05) and diagnostic ERCP group ( χ2 = 8. 900，P ＜0. 05) ．The areas under the ROC curves ( AUC) and 95% CI of EUS group，MRCP group and diagnostic ERCP were 0. 895 ( 95% CI: 0. 802 - 0. 988，P＜0. 001) ，0. 804 ( 95% CI: 0. 702 －0. 907，P ＜0. 001) and 0. 723 ( 95% CI: 0. 598 －0. 848，P = 0. 001) ，respectively． Conclusion EUS has a high diagnostic value in the diagnosis of common bile duct microli- thiasis and thus can be used as the preferred examination before therapeutic ERCP．

Objective To investigate the role of knockdown of peroxiredoxin-6(PRDX6)in injury and adaptive expression of bile acid transporter in human hepatoellular carcinomas(HepG2)cells induced by rifampicin(RFP).Methods Cells in logarithmic growth phase were uniformly inoculated in six-well plates,and HepG2 cells were transiently transfected with specific PRDX6-siRNA and control-siRNA to construct the knockdown group and control group.After 24 h of induction with 100 μmol/L RFP,Western blot and qRT-PCR were performed to detect the protein and gene expression levels of PRDX6,multidrug resistance protein 1(MDR1),multidrug resist-ance-associated proteins 2,3 and 4(MRP2,MRP3 and MRP4),and Na+/taurine taurocholate cotransporter pro-tein(NTCP).Annexin V-FITC/PI double staining assay was used to detect the apoptosis rate of cells in each group;CCK-8 assay was used to detect the changes of cell proliferation in each group;The relative contents of ala-nine aminotransferase(ALT),aspartate aminotransferase(AST),total bilirubin(TBIL),indirect bilirubin(IBIL)and total bile acid(TBA)in the supernatant of cell culture medium of each group were detected by kits.Results RFP increased the protein and gene expression levels of MRP2,MRP3,MRP4,MDR1,NTCP and PRDX6 in HepG2 cells(P<0.05),while the protein and gene expression levels of MRP2,MRP3,MRP4,MDR1 and NTCP decreased to different degrees after PRDX6 knockdown(P<0.05).In addition,PRDX6 knockdown re-sulted in increased apoptosis rate of HepG2 cells(P<0.05),decreased cell proliferation ability(P<0.05),and increased levels of cell injury markers(ALT,AST,TBIL,DBIL,TBA)in cell culture supernatants(P<0.05).Conclusion RFP increased the protein and gene expression of bile acid transporter and PRDX6 to increase in HepG2 cells.However,following knockdown of PRDX6 and treatment with RFP,the protein and gene expression levels of the bile acid transporter decreased and cell injury was aggravated,suggesting that PRDX6 played a protec-tive role in RFP-induced adaptive response in HepG2 cells.

Objective : To analyze the clinical characteristics of patients with abdominal type allergic purpura(HSP), to improve their diagnostic level, and to explore the risk factors for gastrointestinal bleeding in HSP patients. Methods : A retrospective analysis was conducted on the clinical manifestations, laboratory data, imaging, endoscopic, and pathological characteristics of 98 patients with abdominal type HSP. Based on the occurrence of gastrointestinal bleeding, 98 patients were divided into a bleeding group and a non-bleeding group, and the risk factors for gastrointestinal bleeding in HSP patients were analyzed. Results : Abdominal HSP often presented with abdominal pain, vomiting, vomiting blood, black stools, and bloody stools. Imaging often showed edema and thickening of the duodenum and jejunum, as well as enlargement of surrounding lymph nodes. Under endoscopy, the descending part of the duodenum and jejunum mucosa were commonly congested and edematous with erosion, and ulcers were seen in the distal ileum. Pathology commonly involved acute and chronic inflammation of the mucosa with congestion, edema, and local erosion. Patients with gastrointestinal bleeding had significantly higher levels of white blood cell count(WBC), neutrophil count(NEUT), C-reactive protein(CRP), D-dimer(D-D), and fibrinolytic products(FDP) compared to non-bleeding patients(P<0.05), while levels of red blood cell count(RBC), hemoglobin(HGB), and albumin(ALB) were significantly lower than those of non bleeding patients(P<0.05). Logistic regression analysis showed that decreased ALB and increased FDP were independent risk factors for gastrointestinal bleeding in patients with abdominal HSP(P<0.05). The areas under the ROC curves of ALB and FDP were(AUC=0.877, 95%CI:0.794-0.960,P<0.01) and(AUC=0.806, 95%CI:0.722-0.890,P<0.01), respectively. The maximum value of the Jordan index for ALB was 0.734, with sensitivity and specificity of 89.6% and 83.9%, respectively, and had a critical value of 38.2 g/L. The maximum value of the Jordan index for FDP was 0.577, with sensitivity and specificity of 64.2% and 93.5%, respectively, and had a critical value of 18.14 μg/ml. There was no statistically significant difference in the ROC curves between ALB and FDP. Conclusion For HSP with abdominal pain as the initial symptom, imaging and endoscopic examination are helpful for early diagnosis. Decreased ALB and elevated FDP are independent risk factors for gastrointestinal bleeding in adult patients with abdominal HSP.

Objective To provide reference for the subsequent clinical application of WBV,based on the impacts of whole body vibration(WBV)with different frequencies on gross motor function and walking function in children with dyskinetic cerebral palsy.Methods 60 children aged 6～12 with dyskinetic cerebral palsy,who had been treated at the department of rehabilitation medicine in the Affiliated Southwest Medical University from October 2021 to November 2022,were selected.They were randomly divided into a control group(n = 20),(25±5)Hz group(n = 20),and(35±5)Hz group(n = 20).All the three groups received conventional rehabilitation,while the(25±5)Hz group received additional WBV with(25±5)Hz and the(35±5)Hz group received WBV with(35±5)Hz.They were treated for eight weeks.The scores on D and E domains of GMFM-88,TUGT,the score on Berg Balance Scale,and footprint analysis were used for assessment of the efficacy after treatment.Results As compared with the baselines,the scores were improved in the three groups after treatment(P＜0.001).BBS(F = 12.502),TUGT(F = 8.211),scores on D and E domains of GMFM-88(F = 12.802 and 8.505),stride length(F = 12.279),1MWT distance(F = 12.619),and step width(F = 13.582)were better in the(35±5)Hz group than in the(25±5)Hz group and the control group(P＜0.05 and P＜0.01);and the efficacy was better in the(25±5)Hz group than in the control group,the difference was statistically significant(P＜0.05 and P＜0.01).Conclusion WBV can improve trunk control,lower limb gross motor function,and walking function in children with involuntary motor type cerebral palsy.(35±5)Hz is better than(25±5)Hz for the efficacy of WBV.

Objective To evaluate the impact of the WeChat platform health management model combined with low-dose atorvastatin on lipid and glucose profiles,quality of life,and negative emotions in patients with metabolic syndrome and obesity.Methods The data of obese patients with metabolic syndrome who were treated at Shangyu People's Hospital of Shaoxing from June 2022 to June 2023 were retrospectively analyzed.The patients were divided into a control group and an experimental group according to their out-of-hospital health management methods.The control group received atorvastatin combined with conventional health management treatment,and the experimental group received atorvastatin combined with a health management model based on the WeChat platform.The blood glucose and lipid-related indicators were compared between the two groups before and 3 months and 6 months after intervention.Negative emotions and quality of life were compared before and 6 months after intervention,and self-management ability was compared 6 months after intervention.Results A total of 160 patients were included in the study,with 85 patients in the control group and 75 patients in the experimental group.After the intervention,the fasting blood glucose(FBG),2-hour postprandial blood glucose(2hPBG),glycated hemoglobin(HbA1c),low-density lipoprotein(LDL-C),triglyceride(TG)and total cholesterol(TC)of the two groups of patients at 3 months and 6 months)were significantly lower than before intervention,and the above indicators of the experimental group were lower than those of the control group(P＜0.05);while high-density lipoprotein(HDL-C)was significantly higher than that before intervention,and HDL-C in the observation group was higher than that of the control group(P＜0.05).Compared with pre-treatment,the anxiety self-rating scale(SAS)and depression self-rating scale(SDS)scores were siginficantly lower,and various quality of life scores for both groups significantly higher 6 months after intervention(P＜0.05),and the self-management ability of the experimental group was significantly higher than that of the control group(P＜0.05).Conclusion Low-dose atorvastatin combined with the WeChat platform health management model effectively improves lipid profiles,blood glucose,negative emotions,self-management behavior,and quality of life in patients with metabolic syndrome and obesity,which is worthy of clinical promotion.

Objective:To report the results of national surveillance on the distribution and antimicrobial resistance profile of clinical Gram-positive bacteria isolates from bloodstream infections in China in 2022.Methods:The clinical isolates of Gram-positive bacteria from blood cultures in member hospitals of National Bloodstream Infection Bacterial Resistant Investigation Collaborative System（BRICS）were collected during January 2022 to December 2022. Antibiotic susceptibility tests were conducted by agar dilution or broth dilution methods recommended by Clinical and Laboratory Standards Institute（CLSI）. WHONET 5.6 and SPSS 25.0 software were used to analyze the data.Results:A total of 3 163 strains of Gram-positive pathogens were collected from 51 member units，and the top five bacteria were Staphylococcus aureus（ n=1 147，36.3%），coagulase-negative Staphylococci（ n=928，29.3%）， Enterococcus faecalis（ n=369，11.7%）， Enterococcus faecium（ n=296，9.4%）and alpha-hemolyticus Streptococci（ n=192，6.1%）. The detection rates of methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus（MRSA）and methicillin-resistant coagulase-negative Staphylococci（MRCNS）were 26.4%（303/1 147）and 66.7%（619/928），respectively. No glycopeptide and daptomycin-resistant Staphylococci were detected. The sensitivity rates of Staphylococcus aureus to cefpirome，rifampin，compound sulfamethoxazole，linezolid，minocycline and tigecycline were all >95.0%. Enterococcus faecium was more prevalent than Enterococcus faecalis. The resistance rates of Enterococcus faecium to vancomycin and teicoplanin were both 0.5%（2/369），and no vancomycin-resistant Enterococcus faecium was detected. The detection rate of MRSA in southern China was significantly lower than that in other regions（ χ2=14.578， P=0.002），while the detection rate of MRCNS in northern China was significantly higher than that in other regions（ χ2=15.195， P=0.002）. The detection rates of MRSA and MRCNS in provincial hospitals were higher than those in municipal hospitals（ χ2=13.519 and 12.136， P<0.001）. The detection rates of MRSA and MRCNS in economically more advanced regions（per capita GDP≥92 059 Yuan in 2022）were higher than those in economically less advanced regions（per capita GDP<92 059 Yuan）（ χ2=9.969 and 7.606， P=0.002和0.006）. Conclusions:Among the Gram-positive pathogens causing bloodstream infections in China， Staphylococci is the most common while the MRSA incidence decreases continuously with time；the detection rate of Enterococcus faecium exceeds that of Enterococcus faecalis. The overall prevalence of vancomycin-resistant Enterococci is still at a low level. The composition ratio of Gram-positive pathogens and resistant profiles varies slightly across regions of China，with the prevalence of MRSA and MRCNS being more pronounced in provincial hospitals and areas with a per capita GDP≥92 059 yuan.
