Objective: To explore the iodine nutrition status of children in Wuhan from 2019 to 2023, and to evaluate the effect of iodine deficiency disorders control in focus groups in Wuhan, so as to provide a basis for consolidating elimination of iodine deficiency disorders. Methods: A total of 13 000 non boarding primary school students aged 8-10 were selected from 13 districts of Wuhan by stratified random sampling method.Household salt samples were collected to measure salt iodine content, random urine samples were analyzed for urinary iodine concentration. And B ultrasound was used to measure thyroid volume in students. The median of salt iodine, coverage rate of iodized salt, consumption rate of qualified iodized salt, median of urinary iodine, and the goiter rate were calculated. And Mann-Whitney U- test, Kruskal-Wallis H- test and Chi-square test were applied to compare between groups. Chi-square trend test was used to analyze the changing trends of coverage rate of iodized salt, consumption rate of qualified iodized salt and goiter rate among children in Wuhan. Results: The median of iodine content of children s household salt was 23.8 (21.7, 26.1) mg/kg, and the coverage rate of iodized salt was 98.7%, and the consumption rate of qualified iodized salt was 94.5 %. The consumption rates of qualified iodized salt showed an overall upward trend from 2019 to 2023 ( χ 2 trend =5.57， P <0.05). The median of urinary iodine of children was 220.1 (136.7, 326.0) μg/L,and boys had higher median of urinary iodine than girls [228.3(143.2, 336.0),210.2(129.1, 315.7) μg/L] ( Z =6.60, P <0.01). The median of urinary iodine of children in suburbs was higher than those in urban areas [236.3 (150.7, 342.2) , 207.1 (124.5, 309.8) μg/L]( Z =11.00, P <0.01). A total of 4 600 children were examined for thyroid volume, and the range of goiter rates were 1.1% to 3.4%, with an average goiter rate of 2.5%, which showed an overall downward trend from 2019 to 2023 ( χ 2 trend =5.11, P <0.05). Conclusions The iodine nutrition is sufficient and iodine nutrition status is good among children in Wuhan. It should continue to carry out monitoring and evaluation of children s iodine nutrition, guide the public to supplement iodine scientifically,so as to maintain the appropriate level of iodine for children.

ObjectiveTo investigate the supply satisfaction with community-embedded elderly care services in Nanchang city， which can assist in optimizing its supply system of elderly care services and build a policy system for high-quality development of community-embedded elderly care services for reference. MethodsA total of 15 indicators from three dimensions： resource embeddedness， functional embeddedness， and operational-mode embeddedness， were selected to design the Elderly Care Service Supply Satisfaction Scale. A simple random sampling method was used to survey elderly residents in 25 community-embedded elderly care institutions in Nanchang city， and the binary logistic regression model and structural equation model were used for analysis. ResultsFirst， resource embeddedness and operational-mode embeddedness had a significantly positive impact on supply satisfaction. Second， the weight of resource embeddedness， functional embeddedness， and operational-mode embeddedness on supply satisfaction decreased gradually. Third， the “number of service personnel” and “adequacy of service types” in the resource embeddedness dimension， the “entertainment services” and “medical services” in the functional embeddedness dimension， and the “charging standard” and “service response degree” in the operational-mode embeddedness dimension had a greater impact on supply satisfaction in their corresponding dimensions. ConclusionTo develop community-embedded elderly care， it is essential to strengthen the construction of the team of elderly care professionals， enrich the supply content of elderly care services， and increase the development support with the help of resource embeddedness； establish a unified charging system for elderly care， improve the responsiveness of elderly care services， and enhance the development internal driving force based on operational-mode embeddedness； improve the level of integrated medical and elderly care， emphasize the return of the family as the main body， and perfect the development system by using functional embeddedness as a link.

Microglial functions are linked to Ca²⁺ signaling, with endoplasmic reticulum (ER) calcium stores playing a crucial role. Microglial abnormality is a hallmark of Alzheimer's disease (AD), but how ER Ca²⁺ receptors regulate microglial functions under physiological and AD conditions remains unclear. We found reduced ryanodine receptor 2 (Ryr2) expression in microglia from an AD mouse model. Modulation of RyR2 using S107, a RyR-Calstabin stabilizer, blunted spontaneous Ca²⁺ transients in controls and normalized Ca²⁺ transients in AD mice. S107 enhanced ATP-induced migration and phagocytosis while reducing ramification in control microglia; however, these effects were absent in AD microglia. Our findings indicate that RyR2 stabilization promotes an activation state shift in control microglia, a mechanism impaired in AD. These results highlight the role of ER Ca²⁺ receptors in both homeostatic and AD microglia, providing insights into microglial Ca²⁺ malfunctions in AD.

OBJECTIVE: To explore the clinical characteristics and genetic etiology of a patient with De-differentiated liposarcoma (DDLPS). METHODS: A 38-year-old female patient with DDLPS who had visited Hunan Provincial People's Hospital in January 2025 was selected as the study subject. A retrospective study method was adopted to collect the patient's clinical data, including current and past medical history, auxiliary examinations, pathological diagnosis, and results of genetic testing. This study was approved by the Ethics Committee of Hunan Provincial People's Hospital (Ethics No.: KY2025-150). RESULTS: The patient had presented with abdominal pain and abdominal mass. Imaging studies revealed ascites and space-occupying abdominal lesions. Postoperative pathological examination showed that the tumor was composed of spindle cells, and its morphology and immunohistochemistry had made it difficult to distinguish between DDLPS and leiomyosarcoma. High-throughput sequencing revealed characteristic molecular alterations of DDLPS, and fluorescence in situ hybridization confirmed MDM2 gene amplification, leading to a diagnosis of DDLPS. CONCLUSION The patient was diagnosed with DDLPS. Her clinical manifestations and pathological features were consistent with the characteristics of DDLPS. Molecular pathological testing played a crucial role in the diagnosis and provided a crucial reference for subsequent treatment.

OBJECTIVE: To block family transmission of a small fragment copy number variation (CNV) with combined 1 Mb resolution preimplantation genetic testing for aneuploidy (PGT-A) and target region preimplantation genetic testing for monogenic disease (PGT-M) strategies. METHODS: A couple who attended the Reproductive and Genetic Medicine Center of Dalian Women and Children's Medical Center (Group) in 2024 were selected as the study subject. Upon the woman's two pregnancies, ultrasound examination revealed fetal abnormalities, and CNV-seq based on low-depth whole genome sequencing revealed that both fetuses had carried a maternal 17p12 microduplication of approximately 1.43 Mb. Microduplication in this region has been associated with Charcot-Marie-Tooth disease type 1A. In view of the fact that the resolution of conventional PGT-A detection cannot meet the requirement of small fragment CNV analysis, and conventional PGT-M assay cannot directly determine the CNV, two detection schemes were adopted. On the one hand, PGT-A testing with 1 Mb resolution was performed on the embryo to directly determine whether it carries the above microduplication. At the same time, the couple and their fetus were subjected to chromosomal typing scheme for the 17p12 region to indirectly identify embryos carrying the risk chromosome for microduplication. This study has been approved by the Medical Ethics Committee of the Hospital (Ethics No: FEJT-KY-2025-51). RESULTS: Three embryos were tested after the first PGT cycle, of which 1 was not carrying the pathogenic variant and was euploid, whilst the other 2 embryos were carrying the 17p12 microduplication, and 1 of them was aneuploid. After genetic counseling, the euploid embryo without the 17p12 microduplication was selected for transfer, and prenatal diagnosis based on amniotic fluid sample showed that the fetal chromosomal karyotype was normal and did not carry the 17p12 microduplication. CONCLUSION The combined application of high-resolution PGT-A and PGT-M typing detection of the target region can effectively block family transmission of the CNVs of small fragments.
