Objective:To investigate the prevalence and genotype distribution of human papillomavirus (HPV) infection in the anorectal region among human immunodeficiency virus (HIV)-positive men who have sex with men (MSM) in Shenzhen, and explore the differences between HIV-positive and HIV-negative MSM populations, providing scientific evidence for HPV screening, vaccination, and related disease prevention.Methods:A total of 100 MSM recruited from the Department of Dermatovenerology of the Third People′s Hospital of Shenzhen between 2023 and 2024 were included. Questionnaire collected sociodemographic and clinical characteristics. Anorectal exfoliated cells were analyzed for HPV genotyping, and blood samples were tested for HIV antibodies and T lymphocyte subsets. Chi-square test was used to assess associations between qualitative variables. Results:Among 100 MSM, 58 were HIV-positive and 42 HIV-negative. The overall HPV infection rate was 93.10% (54/58) in HIV-positive MSM, with high-risk HPV at 79.31% (46/58) and low-risk HPV at 75.86% (44/58). The predominant genotypes were HPV6, 11, 16, 52, 18, 59, and 68. In HIV-negative MSM, HPV infection rate was 95.24% (40/42), with high-risk HPV at 57.14% (24/42) and low-risk HPV at 92.50% (37/40), dominated by HPV6, 11, 16, 51 and 52. HIV-positive MSM showed significantly higher infection rates of high-risk HPV16/18 ( P=0.032), HPV58 ( P=0.020), HPV59 ( P=0.031), and HPV68 ( P=0.007) compared to HIV-negative MSM. The maximum number of concurrent HPV infections was 12 in HIV-positive MSM versus 4 in HIV-negative MSM. Multivariate analysis revealed that HIV-positive MSM with CD4/CD8 ratio≤0.9 had significantly higher HPV positivity ( P<0.05). Conclusions:HIV-positive MSM exhibit elevated rates of high-risk and multiple HPV infections, closely associated with immune dysfunction. Strengthened HPV screening, vaccination, and immune status management are critical for preventing HPV-related malignancies in the population.

Objective:To investigate the role of microRNA-25-5p (miR-25-5p) in melanogenesis, and to explore its underlying mechanisms.Methods:Target genes of miR-25-5p were predicted using the TargetScan database. The interaction between miR-25-5p and the 3' untranslated region (3' UTR) of the RAB11B gene (a member of RAS oncogene family) was validated through a dual-luciferase reporter assay. Post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation (PIH) models were established in female C57BL/6J mice (6 - 8 weeks old) and female brown guinea pigs (4 - 6 weeks old) through daily broadband ultraviolet B (UVB) irradiation on the dorsal skin of the mouse ear or shaved dorsal skin of guinea pigs, while untreated mice and untreated dorsal skin areas of guinea pigs served as control groups. During modeling, these experimental animals received intradermal injections of a miR-25-5p agomir or a miR control agomir. Changes in skin pigmentation were observed, and skin tissue samples were harvested for further analysis after modeling. Melanin content in skin tissues was evaluated using Masson-Fontana staining. Expression of RAB11B and tyrosinase (TYR) in skin tissues was determined using immunohistochemical staining and quantitative real-time PCR (qPCR). Primary human melanocytes were isolated from discarded normal foreskin tissues of healthy males after circumcision. Both primary human melanocytes and human MNT1 melanoma cells were transfected with miR-25-5p mimics or miR control mimics. Relative expression levels of miR-25-5p and RAB11B mRNA were quantified by qPCR using the 2 -ΔΔCt calculation method. In MNT1 cells, miR-25-5p and RAB11B were co-overexpressed to assess their effect on the mRNA expression of RAB11B and TYR. Statistical analysis was conducted using t test or one-way analysis of variance followed by Tukey's post hoc test for multiple comparisons. Results:The bioinformatic prediction and dual-luciferase reporter assay confirmed a binding site for miR-25-5p in the 3′ UTR of the RAB11B gene. In both animal models, the treatment with the miR-25-5p agomir significantly reduced local skin pigmentation compared to the control groups; Masson-Fontana staining showed a marked decrease in the density of melanin granules in the epidermis and dermis in the miR-25-5p agomir groups compared with the miR control agomir groups (mice: 0.050 ± 0.005 vs. 0.087 ± 0.008; guinea pigs: 0.067 ± 0.015 vs. 0.110 ± 0.013; both P < 0.05). Immunohistochemical staining revealed significantly lower expression of RAB11B in mouse skin tissues in the miR-25-5p agomir group than in those in the miR control agomir group (both P < 0.05). qPCR revealed significantly lower mRNA expression of RAB11B and TYR in skin tissues of guinea pigs in the miR-25-5p agomir group than in those in the miR control agomir group (both P < 0.05). Similarly, RAB11B mRNA expression significantly decreased in the miR-25-5p mimics group compared with the miR control mimics group in primary human melanocytes and MNT1 cells (both P < 0.05). In human MNT1 melanoma cells, miR-25-5p overexpression could suppress TYR mRNA expression, whereas co-overexpression of miR-25-5p and RAB11B could reverse this suppression. Conclusion:Overexpression of miR-25-5p could alleviate UVB-induced post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation and inhibit melanogenesis, likely by targeted suppression of RAB11B expression.

Objective:To evaluate the clinical efficacy of endoscopic treatment of superficial non-ampullary duodenal adenoma.Methods:A retrospective analysis was performed on the clinical data and follow-up information of patients diagnosed with superficial duodenal non-ampullary adenomas via preoperative endoscopy and treated endoscopically at Peking University First Hospital between January 2013 and January 2024. The overall en bloc resection rate, complete resection rate of the lesion, perioperative complications, and recurrence rates were evaluated. Patients were categorized into three groups based on their treatment modality: endoscopic mucosal resection (EMR)（ n=46）, endoscopic submucosal dissection (ESD)（ n=16）, and modified ESD (ESD with snare, ESD-S)（ n=24）. Comparative analyses were conducted to evaluate operative time, en bloc resection rate, and complete resection rate among the three groups. Results:Among 86 patients, the overall en bloc and complete resection rates were 87.2% (75/86) and 86.0% (74/86), respectively. No case of delayed bleeding was observed during the perioperative period. Intraoperative perforation occurred in two patients, both of whom improved following conservative management. Delayed perforation was noted in four patients, and three of them were successfully managed with surgical intervention, while one case was resolved after conservative treatment. During the follow-up period, local recurrence was identified in two patients. Following re-treatment with endoscopy and continuous surveillance, no further recurrence was observed. The operative times for the EMR group, ESD-S group, and ESD group were 4 (1-36) minutes, 25 (5-190) minutes, and 46 (5-150) minutes, respectively. Significant differences were observed in operative times among the three groups ( Hc=49.892, P<0.001). The en bloc resection rates for the EMR, ESD-S, and ESD groups were 80.4% (37/46), 91.7% (22/24), and 100.0% (16/16), respectively. The complete resection rates were 80.4% (37/46), 91.7% (22/24), and 93.8% (15/16) for the respective groups. Conclusion:Endoscopic treatment demonstrates favorable efficacy and safety for superficial non-ampullary duodenal adenoma. In addition to traditional EMR and ESD, ESD-S is also an effective procedure for endoscopic treatment of non-ampullary duodenal adenoma.

OBJECTIVE To investigate the efficacy and safety of Wuling capsules combined with low-dose quetiapine in the treatment of oldest-old patients with insomnia accompanied by anxiety and depression. METHODS The clinical data of 96 oldest- old patients （aged≥80 years） with insomnia accompanied by anxiety and depression who were attending outpatient clinics or hospitalized in our hospital from June 2020 to December 2022 were retrospectively analyzed. According to the different drug treatments， the patients were divided into Wuling capsules group （0.99 g， tid， 34 cases）， quetiapine group （25-50 mg， qn， 30 cases） and combination group （using Wuling capsules and quetiapine simultaneously， same as the single drug groups， 32 cases）. Before and after 8 weeks of treatment， the patients of three groups were compared in terms of photoplethysmography sleep monitoring indexes （total sleep duration， sleep efficiency， sleep latency， and the number of awakening）， Pittsburgh sleep quality index （PSQI） score， 14-item Hamilton anxiety scale （HAMA-14） score， 17-item Hamilton depression scale （HAMD-17） score， mini-mental state examination （MMSE） score， and serum levels of interleukin-1β （IL-1β） and tumor necrosis factor-α （TNF-α）； the therapeutic effects and adverse drug reactions of the three groups were observed and compared. RESULTS Compared with before treatment， the total sleep time， sleep efficiency and MMSE scores of the three groups were significantly longer or higher after treatment （P＜0.05）， while the sleep latency， number of awakening， PSQI score， HAMA-14 score， HAMD-17 score， serum IL-1β and TNF-α levels were significantly shorter or lower after treatment （P＜0.05）. Sleep latency， number of awakening， HAMA-14 score， HAMD-17 score and serum TNF-α level in quetiapine group were significantly shorter or lower than Wuling capsules group after treatment （P＜0.05）. Moreover， the above indexes in the combination group were significantly better than quetiapine group and Wuling capsules group （P＜0.05）. The total effective rate of treatment in the combination 1731786794@qq.com group was significantly higher than the other two groups （P＜0.05）. There was no significant difference in the incidence of mail：2408797210@qq.com adverse drug reactions among the three groups （P＞0.05）. CONCLUSIONS The therapeutic effect of Wuling capsules combined with low-dose quetiapine is better than that of individual drugs for oldest-old patients with insomnia accompanied with anxiety and depression， not increasing the risk of adverse reactions.

Objective:To survey the child health service capacity of community health service institutions in Shenzhen city.Methods:This was a cross-sectional study. An online survey was conducted among 559 community health service centers, stations and clinics in Shenzhen from January 23, 2024 to February 3, 2024. The questionnaire contents included the development of child health management, vaccination, diagnosis and treatment of common diseases in children, management of children′s chronic diseases, appropriate technology, availability of children′s special drug dosage forms, provision of special Chinese patent medicine and appropriate technology of traditional Chinese medicine for children, referral and remote consultation in 2019 and 2023. The reasons of unavailable service items were asked in the questionnaire and the questionnaire also contained an open-ended question about the suggestions for improving the capacity of child health services.Results:A total of 559 valid questionnaires were collected, accounting for 64.48% (559/867) of the community health service centers, stations and health clinics in Shenzhen in 2023. Compared to 2019, there was a significant increase in the rate of pediatric health services provided in 2023, including the diagnosis and treatment of common diseases in children under 6 years (96.06%, 537 institutions), nebulized inhalation therapy (96.60%, 540 institutions), influenza and other respiratory pathogen detection (90.70%, 507 institutions), rotavirus and other intestinal pathogen detection (34.53%, 193 institutions), allergen detection (81.75%, 457 institutions), blood oxygen saturation monitoring (84.44%, 472 institutions), pediatric-specific formulations of Western medicine (90.52%, 506 institutions), pediatric-specific formulations of traditional Chinese medicine (89.27%, 499 institutions), appropriate Chinese medicine techniques (88.19%, 493 institutions), relatively fixed referral hospitals (95.17%, 532 institutions), and remote consultation service (19.14%, 107 institutions); and the differences were statistically significant ( P<0.01). The reasons for unavailable service items were lack of space and personnel for the basic public health services, lack of space, personnel and a deficiency in knowledge and technical capabilities for diagnostic tests, and lack of equipment and personnel for remote consultation service. Suggestions made by 394 respondent institutions (70.48%) for further improvement included: conducting and strengthening various training (44.42%, 175/394), consultation and teaching by expert visiting (18.53%, 73/394), increasing the space and equipment (9.39%, 37/394), and further study at higher-level units (98.88%, 35/394). Conclusions:The child health services have been greatly improved in community health service institutions in Shenzhen, but there are still rooms for further improvement such as the ability of child health management, vaccination, chronic disease managements and provision of remote consultation.

Objective:To investigate the differences of clinical data and pathological changes in patients with primary IgA nephropathy (IgAN) with different blood types.Methods:The clinical and pathological data of patients with primary IgAN diagnosed by renal biopsy in the People's Hospital of Ningxia Hui Autonomous Region from May 2016 to May 2021 were collected. They were divided into groups A, O, B and AB according to blood group. The clinical manifestations and pathological changes of the four groups during renal biopsy were analyzed.Results:A total of 258 patients with primary IgAN were included, including 87 cases of type A, 74 cases of type O, 72 cases of type B and 25 cases of type AB. The male to female ratio was 1.34∶1, and the median age was 36 (29, 47) years old. There was no significant difference in age, sex, blood pressure, hemoglobin and renal function among the four groups (all P>0.05). Neutrophil gelatinase-associated lipocalin (NGAL) in patients with type A and B was higher than other groups (all P<0.05). There were no significant differences in mesangial cell hyperplasia (M), capillary cell hyperplasia (E), glomerular segmental sclerosis (S), renal tubule atrophy/interstitial fibrosis (T), crescent body (C) lesions and proportion of sclerosed glomeruli among the four groups (all P>0.05). Subgroup analysis by gender showed that the hemoglobin, uric acid and creatinine of male patients were higher than those of female patients (all P<0.05), but the estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) and urinary protein had no statistical significance (all P>0.05). Women with blood type A and O were heavier than men under microscope. The pathological manifestations of M, E, S and C lesions in women with type A blood were heavier than those in men, and S and T lesions in men with type B blood were heavier than those in women. There was no significant difference in the general baseline data, inflammation and kidney indexes between the four groups of men and women (all P>0.05). Pathologically, the M lesions of men with B blood group were more severe than those of other blood groups, while the S and T lesions of women with B blood group were less severe than those of other blood groups. Conclusions:The clinical and pathological manifestations of IgAN women with type A are heavier, the pathological manifestations of IgAN women with type B are lighter, but the pathological lesions of IgAN men with type B are heavier.

ObjectiveTo investigate the effects of dopamine receptor agonist pramipexole and levodopa on emotion and cognition, and mitochondrial membrane potential of rats after global cerebral ischemia-reperfusion injury. MethodsA total of 80 male Sprague-Dawley rats were divided into sham group (n = 20), model group (n = 20), pramipexole group (n = 20) and combined group (n = 20). The latter three groups were used to prepare the model of global cerebral ischemia-reperfusion injury with Pulsinelli's four-vessel occlusion. The pramipexole group was intraperitoneally injected pramipexole 0.5 mg/kg once a day, while the combined group was injected levodopa 50 mg/kg and pramipexole 0.5 mg/kg, for 14 days. Five rats in each group were tested with open field test three, seven and 14 days after modeling; five were tested with Y-maze test seven and 14 days after modeling; five were detected mitochondrial membrane potential three, seven and 14 days after modeling; and five were observed under Nissl's staining14 days after modeling. ResultsCompared with the model group, the number of entries into the central zone (P < 0.05), total distance travelled (P < 0.05) and average velocity (P < 0.05) in the open field test increased in the pramipexole and combined groups seven and 14 days after modeling, duration spent in the central zone increased in the pramipexole and combined groups seven days after modeling (P < 0.05); the rate of spontaneous alternation of Y-maze test increased in the pramipexole and combined groups 14 days after modeling (P < 0.05); mitochondrial membrane potential in hippocampus increased in the pramipexole and combined groups seven and 14 days after modeling (P < 0.05), and it was less in the pramipexole group than in the combined group 14 days after modeling (P < 0.05); and the number of surviving neurons in the hippocampal CA1 increased in the pramipexole and combined groups 14 days after modeling (P < 0.05). ConclusionPramipexole may improve emotion and cognition of rats after global cerebral ischemia-reperfusion injury, and it may be helpful for restoring mitochondrial membrane potential as combining with levodopa.
