BACKGROUND:The self-renewal and multi-directional differentiation of pluripotent stem cells possess the potential to revolutionize people's understanding of biology,medicine,development,and disease.Stem cells play an important role in the early stage of embryonic development,and the study of them could be beneficial to understanding of the basic principles of biological development and tissue or organ formation,exploring the potential mechanisms of various diseases,studying the repair and regeneration of damaged tissues or organs,and promoting drug discovery and personalized treatment. OBJECTIVE:To review the research progress of pluripotent stem cells,summarize and categorize the fundamental types of pluripotent stem cells,and elucidate the lineage situations of various types of pluripotent stem cells in common mammals. METHODS:PubMed,Web of Science,CNKI,and WanFang databases were searched systematically,with the keywords"pluripotent stem cells;embryonic stem cells;induced pluripotent stem cells;expanded potential stem cells;livestock pluripotent stem cells"in English and Chinese.The 99 articles related to mammalian pluripotent stem cells were systematically screened according to inclusion and exclusion criteria,and then reviewed. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:(1)According to classical theory in mouse embryonic stem cell research,the pluripotent state of stem cells is divided into two forms:na?ve and primed.Na?ve state corresponds to the inner cell mass of pre-implantation embryos before attachment to the uterine wall,while primed state corresponds to the epiblast after implantation.These two states exhibit significant differences in epigenetic features,transcriptional activity,external signal dependency,and metabolic phenotype.It is later discovered that there is an intermediate state between na?ve and primed called formative pluripotency.Therefore,the pluripotency of pluripotent stem cells is a continuous developmental process rather than a unique cell state.(2)In addition to obtaining pluripotent stem cells from the inner cell mass,there are various methods and lineages for acquiring pluripotent stem cells,including embryonic germ cells established using primitive germ cells from mouse embryos,induced pluripotent stem cells created by the dedifferentiation of adult mouse and human fibroblasts with four factors—Oct3/4,Sox2,c-Myc,and Klf4;embryonic stem cell-like cell lines cultured from somatic cell nuclear transfer,parthenogenesis,neonatal or adult testicular or ovarian tissue,very small embryonic-like stem cells derived from various adult tissues and expanded pluripotent stem cells derived from pre-implantation stages.These pluripotent stem cells all share the common characteristics of continuous self-renewal,expressing core pluripotency factors and possessing the ability to differentiate into the three primary germ layers.(3)Currently,pluripotent stem cells are being used for disease modeling to study the mechanisms of various diseases and develop new drugs.Simultaneously,scientists are attempting to use pluripotent stem cells to cultivate various tissues and organs,offering new possibilities for regenerative medicine and transplantation.However,the clinical application of pluripotent stem cells faces safety challenges,including issues of cell mutations and immune rejection.Continual improvement in the methods of generating pluripotent stem cells will make them safer and more efficient for clinical applications.(4)Based on the methods of obtaining and lineage establishment of pluripotent stem cells in mice and humans,various types of pluripotent stem cells have been established in livestock,including embryonic stem cells,induced pluripotent stem cells,germ lineages of pluripotent stem cells,and expanded potential stem cells.Research on livestock pluripotent stem cells opens up new avenues for animal reproduction,breeding,genetic engineering,disease modeling,drug screening,and the conservation of endangered wildlife.

Objective To develop and validate a risk prediction model based on early platelet-related parameters for bronchopulmonary dysplasia(BPD)in neonates admitted to the neonatal intensive care unit(NICU),and to facilitate early identification and intervention in high-risk populations.Methods Clinical data of 291 preterm infants with a gestational age(GA)≤32 weeks or a birth weight(BW)＜1 500 g,admitted to the NICU,were retrospectively analyzed.Out of these,214 cases were selected as the modeling group.This group was further categorized into the BPD group(n=76)and the non-BPD group(n=138),based on whether they required oxygen therapy at 28 days post-birth.Perinatal data,platelet-related parameters and other indicators between the two groups.Univariate and multivariate Logistic regression analyses were conducted to identify BPD risk factors,followed by the construction of a nomogram.An additional cohort of 105 preterm infants with GA≤32 weeks or BW＜1 500 g,were used to validate the model.This cohort was divided into the BPD group(n=43)and the non-BPD(n=62)group.Receiver operating characteristic(ROC)curve and calibration curve were used to internally verify the efficiency of the prediction model.Results The Logistic regression analysis identified GA,BW,Apgar score at 5 minutes≤7,invasive ventilation,platelet count(PLT)and mean platelet volume(MPV)as significant factors in the model(P＜0.05).The constructed nomogram was formulated using R language,and the areas under the ROC curve(AUC)for the three models were 0.908,0.931 and 0.918,respectively(P＜0.05).The verification group was verified by Bootstrap.The calibration curve showed a good fit.The internal validation AUC values of the three models were 0.877,0.890 and 0.886,respectively.Conclusion GA,BW,invasive ventilation,Apgar score at 5 minutes≤7,MPV and PLT are key risk factors for BPD onset.The risk prediction model based on these indicators can effectively predict BPD,providing clinicians with a valuable tool for early detection and intervention in the development of BPD.

Grooming,as an evolutionarily conserved repetitive behavior,is common in various animals,including humans,and serves essential functions including,but not limited to,hygiene maintenance,thermoregulation,de-arousal,stress reduction,and social behaviors.In rodents,grooming involves a patterned and sequenced structure,known as the syntactic chain with four phases that comprise repeated stereotyped movements happening in a cephalocaudal progression style,beginning from the nose to the face,to the head,and finally ending with body licking.The context-dependent occurrence of grooming behavior indicates its adaptive significance.This review briefly summarizes the neural substrates responsible for rodent grooming behavior and explores its relevance in rodent models of neuropsychiatric disorders and neurodegenerative diseases with aberrant grooming phenotypes.We further emphasize the utility of rodent grooming as a reliable measure of repetitive behavior in neuropsychiatric models,holding promise for translational psychiatry.Herein,we mainly focus on rodent self-grooming.Allogrooming(grooming being applied on one animal by its conspecifics via licking or carefully nibbling)and heterogrooming(a form of grooming behavior directing towards another animal,which occurs in other contexts,such as maternal,sexual,aggressive,or social behaviors)are not covered due to space constraints.

Objective To explore the high-quality development path of tertiary public hospitals and provide scientific reference for deepening the reform of public hospitals.Methods Based on SPO theory,it constructed an analytical framework for the high-quality development of tertiary public hospitals,collected data of a quarterly monitoring in-dex for the performance assessment and high-quality development of tertiary public hospitals in a certain province in 2023,and analysed 73 tertiary public hospitals participating in the performance assessment as the object of analy-sis,and adopted the fuzzy-set Qualitative Comparative Analysis to explore different condition sets of high-quality de-velopment of tertiary public hospitals and reveal the path of high-quality development of public hospitals.Results High-quality development is the result of multi-factor interaction.Four configurations were identified to promote the high-quality development of tertiary public hospitals:service quality-technology-driven path,service quality-driven path,comprehensive service-driven path,and service quality-benefit-driven path.Quality safety and functional orientation were found to be the core elements in promoting high-quality development of public hospitals.Conclusion Hospitals at all levels should strengthen the guidance of party building,combine with the actual functional positioning,take quality and safety as the core,and optimize the combination conditions of technical level,personnel structure,service process,and cost control.It is essential to clarify the development strategy of hospitals,implement the dynamic concept,and realize the high-quality development of public hospitals.

Objective To empirically analyze the status quo of high-quality development of public hospitals in S Province,provides reference for promoting high-quality development of public hospitals.Methods SPSS 26.0 soft-ware and text analysis method were used to process the high-quality development monitoring data of tertiary public hospitals in S Province,and the qualitative interview results obtained by field investigation were comprehensively ana-lyzed.Results In terms of capacity improvement,public hospitals actively take measures such as the construction of medical union and the reform of payment methods to improve their capacity.Specialized hospitals and maternity and child care hospitals need to be improved in some indicators.In terms of structural optimization,the quality of medi-cal services is high in all regions.The proportion of medical service revenue and the proportion of high-grade surgery still need to be increased.In terms of innovation and efficiency improvement,the application level of electronic medi-cal records has made remarkable progress in various regions.There are differences in the funding of scientific re-search projects.In terms of cultural cohesion,patient satisfaction was higher.There is improvement room in the satisfaction of medical staff.Conclusion Third-level public hospitals in S province have achieved certain results in high-quality de-velopment,but there are still problems,such as the need to further integrate party building work with hospital busi-ness work,the lack of connection between performance incentive and performance evaluation index system,and the need to improve the satisfaction of medical staff.It is necessary to solve the problem and improve the quality and efficiency of medical service.
