Objective:To investigate the association between small vulnerable newborn (SVN) phenotypes and the risk of neurodevelopmental delay at the age of 1 year.Methods:A prospective cohort study was conducted. A total of 25 860 singleton infants from "The Born in Guangzhou Cohort Study" who completed the Gesell developmental scale assessment at 1 year of age between January 2013 and June 2025 were included. Maternal sociodemographic characteristics, and other information were collected using a self-administered questionnaire, and maternal pregnancy-related information and neonatal birth data were extracted from medical records. Global developmental delay (GDD) was defined as a developmental quotient below 86 in ≥3 domains of the Gesell developmental scale, which assesses the adaptive, gross motor, fine motor, language, and personal-social domains. The random forest algorithm was employed for missing data imputation. Based on prematurity, small for gestational age (SGA), and low birth weight (LBW), newborns were categorized into 6 phenotypes: preterm-SGA-LBW, preterm-appropriate for gestational age (AGA)-LBW, preterm-AGA-nonLBW, term-SGA-LBW, term-LBW-only or term-SGA-only, and term-AGA-nonLBW phenotype. Among these, the first 5 were classified as SVN phenotypes, and the last one served as the reference group. Inter-group comparisons were performed using analysis of variance (ANOVA), χ2 tests, or Kruskal-Wallis test, as appropriate.?? Multivariable robust Poisson regression models were applied to analyze the association of different SVN phenotypes with the risks of GDD and developmental delays in specific domains, with stratified analyses by sex. Results:Among the 25 860 infants, 13 719 (53.1%) were male and 12 141 (46.9%) were female. The gestational age at birth was 39.4 (38.6, 40.0) weeks. The overall detection rate of GDD at 1 year of age was 3.7% (962/25 860). The rates of delay across developmental domains, in descending order, language in 8 134 cases (31.5%), gross motor in 4 488 cases (17.4%), personal-social in 1 271 cases (4.9%), adaptive in 1 262 cases (4.9%), and fine motor in 621 cases (2.4%). Compared with the reference group, preterm-AGA-LBW, preterm-SGA-LBW, preterm-AGA-noneLBW, and term-SGA-LBW phenotypes were all associated with an increased risk of GDD, with the adjusted RR (95% CI) of 6.07(5.01-7.35), 4.81(3.11-7.46), 2.10(1.54-2.88) and 1.89(1.29-2.76) respectively.The preterm-AGA-noneLBW phenotype was all associated with an increased risk of delay in gross motor, language and personal-social functional domains (all P<0.05). The term-SGA-LBW phenotype was associated with an increased risk of delay in gross motor, fine motor and personal-social functional domains (all P<0.01). Whereas the term-LBW-only or term-SGA-only phenotype showed no statistically association with developmental delay in any functional domain (all P≥0.05). Conclusion:The combined classification based on gestational age and birth weight helps identify infants at high risk for neurodevelopmental delay at 1 year of age, suggesting that it may offer a reference for the rational allocation of clinical resources.

Objective To explore the clinical effect of totally laparoscopic total gastrectomy combined with hand-sewn esophagojejunos-tomy for gastric cancer.Methods Ninety cases of gastric cancer patients were seleted,of which 45 cases undergoing Roux-en-Y esophagoje-junostomy for digestive tract reconstruction were set as the control group,while 45 cases undergoing hand-sewn esophagojejunostomy for digestive tract reconstruction were set as the observation group.Patients in the control group underwent laparoscopic-assisted total gastrectomy combined with Roux-en-Y esophagojejunostomy to reconstruct digestive tract,while patients in the observation group underwent totally laparoscopic total gastrectomy combined with hand-sewn esophagojejunostomy to reconstruct digestive tract.The perioperative indicators and complications of patients in the two groups were compared.Results The surgical time,time of esophagojejunostomy,and time to get out of bed after surgery of patients in the observation group were significantly shorter than those in the control group(P<0.05),the pain score 24 hours after surgery was significantly lower than that in the control group(P<0.05).There was no statistically significant difference between the two groups in terms of the incidence of complications or Clavien-Dindo grading(P>0.05).Conclusion Hand-sewn esophagojejunostomy for digestive tract reconstruction has a good clinical effect in gastric cancer during totally laparoscopic total gastrectomy.It can shorten the surgical time and time of esophagojejunostomy,reduce postoperative pain,and accelerate postoperative recovery,whose safety is comparable to Roux-en-Y esophagojejunostomy.

Aim To explore the effect of hydroxysafflor yellow A(HSYA)on lipocalin 2(LCN2)-induced fer-roptosis in HT22 cells and the related mechanism.Methods Thirty male Sprague-Dawley(SD)rats were used to establish the middle cerebral artery occlu-sion/reperfusion(MCAO/R)model by the suture method.The rats were randomly divided into the Sham group,the MCAO/R group,and the MCAO/R+HSYA group.The infarct area was measured by TTC staining,and the degree of neurological deficit was evaluated by the Z-Longa scoring method.The expressions of LCN2 and 24P3R in brain tissues were detected by Western blot.LCN2 protein was added to HT-22 cells,and the cells were divided into the normal group,the LCN2 group,and the LCN2+HSYA group.The optimal con-centration of LCN2-induced neuronal ferroptosis was screened by LDH assay and Western blot,and the ex-pression levels of ferritin,FPN1,GPX4,SLC7A11,COX2,and 24P3R were detected.LCN2 was knocked down by siRNA transfection,and the expressions of GPX4 and ferritin were detected.The contents of glu-tathione(GSH),malondialdehyde(MDA),GPX4,and Fe2+were determined by colorimetry,and the expres-sion of GPX4 was detected by immunofluorescence.The binding force between HSYA and LCN2 was ana-lyzed by molecular docking technology.Results Ani-mal experiments showed that HSYA could reduce the cerebral infarction area and decrease the neurological function score of MCAO/R rats.Compared with the sham group,the levels of LCN2 and 24P3R increased in the MCAO/R group,while HSYA inhibited their ex-pressions.Cell experiments showed that the optimal concentration of LCN2 to induce ferroptosis in HT22 cells was 2 μmol·L-1.After knocking down LCN2 by siRNA transfection,compared with the LCN2 group,the expression levels of GPX4 and ferritin in the siLCN2 group increased significantly.Compared with the nor-mal group,the expressions of SLC7A11,GPX4,FPN1,ferritin,and GSH in the LCN2 group decreased signifi-cantly,while the concentration of Fe2+,and the expres-sions of MDA,COX2,and 24P3R increased.HSYA could increase the expressions of SLC7A11,GPX4,FPN1,ferritin,and GSH,reduce the contents of Fe2+and MDA,and inhibit the expressions of COX2 and 24P3R.Molecular docking showed that the binding en-ergy between HSYA and LCN2 was-8.0 kJ·mol-1.Conclusion HSYA can inhibit LCN2-induced ferrop-tosis in HT22 cells through the SLC7A11/GPX4 signa-ling pathway.

Objective:To explore the trajectory of depressive symptoms and its related factors in rural women in Yunnan from first trimester of pregnancy to 42 days after childbirth.Methods:The longitudinal study design was used,and 213 pregnant women from a rural county of Yunnan were selected.The Edinburgh Postnatal Depression Scale(EPDS),Generalized Anxiety Disorder(GAD-7),and Perceived Social Support Scale(PSSS)were used to surveyed in their first trimester of pregnancy,and followed up in their second and third trimesters of pregnancy and 42 days after childbirth.The analysis was conducted using latent growth curve models,latent class growth models,and multivariate logistic regression models.Results:The results of the latent growth curve models showed a gradual decrease in perinatal depressive symptom scores over time.The latent class growth models revealed three distinct la-tent classes:persistent high depression score group(1.41％),stable low depression score group(91.08％),and fluctuating depression symptoms group(7.51％).Multivariate logistic regression indicated that women with lower education levels(OR=4.04),anxiety symptoms(OR=4.12),and lower social support(OR=3.12)were more likely to be classified into the persistent high depression score group and fluctuating depression symptoms group.Conclusions:The trajectories of perinatal depression symptoms among rural women in Yunnan could be di-vided into three heterogeneous subgroups.Women with low education levels,anxiety symptoms,and lack of social support are more likely to be detected with perinatal depression symptoms.

Objective:To analyze the frailty status and its influencing factors among middle-aged and elderly individuals of Zhiguo ethnic groups in Yunnan Province.Methods:A cross-sectional study was conducted using a multi-stage random cluster sampling method in the settlements of the Zhiguo ethnic groups in Yunnan Province from July to December in 2022. The study enrolled a total of 1 036 middle-aged and elderly individuals aged 45 years and above. Data on general characteristics (including chronic disease prevalence, sleep quality, smoking and alcohol consumption) and frailty status were collected in the subjects. A total of 1 050 questionnaires were distributed, 1 040 questionnaires returned with 1 036 valid responses (98.7%). Logistic regression analysis was performed to identify factors influencing frailty status among different Zhiguo ethnic groups.Results:Among the 1 036 middle-aged and elderly individuals of Zhiguo ethnic groups in Yunnan Province, there were 482 males and 554 females, with a frailty rate of 26.25% (272/1 036), the Bulang ethnic group had the highest frailty rate (35.56%) and the Jinuo ethnic group showed the lowest (18.49%). Being aged≥60 years ( OR=1.647, 95% CI: 1.177-2.303), having≥2 chronic diseases ( OR=2.183, 95% CI: 1.470-3.245), and suffering from sleep disorders ( OR=2.468, 95% CI: 1.786-3.411) were positively associated with frailty occurrence, whereas having high social support ( OR=0.614, 95% CI: 0.434-0.867) was inversely associated with the risk of frailty (all P<0.05). Ethnic subgroup analyses revealed that suffering from sleep disorders were a common influencing factor for frailty across all Zhiguo ethnic groups (all P<0.05). In the Jinuo ethnic group, having≥2 chronic diseases showed a positive association with frailty ( OR=3.387, 95% CI: 1.054-10.879) ( P<0.05). In the Bulang subgroup, having≥2 chronic diseases ( OR=3.951, 95% CI: 1.201-12.995) and aged ≥60 years ( OR=3.415, 95% CI: 1.347-8.657) were both positively associated with frailty, while having high social support ( OR=0.185, 95% CI: 0.065-0.527) was inversely associated with the risk of frailty (all P<0.05). Conclusion:The frailty rate in middle-aged and elderly individuals among Zhiguo ethnic groups in Yunnan Province is notably high, and sleep quality, social support, and chronic conditions are its main influencing factors.

Objective:To investigate the mechanism by which microRNA-183 (miR-183) regulates the progression of diabetic nephropathy (DN) through targeting phosphatase and tensin homolog deleted on chromosome 10 (PTEN) and modulating the AKT signaling pathway, and to identify potential therapeutic targets for DN.Methods:(1) Bioinformatic analysis of miRNA expression: MiRNA expression datasets from diabetic nephropathy (DN) and control samples were obtained from the Gene Expression Omnibus database. Differential expression analysis was performed, and differentially expressed miRNAs (DEmiRNAs) were identified using thresholds of an absolute log 2 (fold changes) >1 and an adjusted P-value<0.05. The results were visualized in a volcano plot and a heatmap. (2) Animal model establishment and in vivo interventional studies: A DN rat model was induced by administration of a high-fat/high-sucrose diet combined with an intraperitoneal injection of streptozotocin. Rats were randomly assigned into four groups ( n=10 per group) using a random number table: control group, DN model group, miR-183 inhibitor negative control (NC) group, and miR-183 inhibitor group. The latter two groups received tail vein injections of the miR-183 inhibitor NC or the miR-183 inhibitor, respectively, for eight consecutive weeks. Parameters including fasting blood glucose, 24-hour urinary protein excretion, urinary albumin excretion rate (UAER), serum creatinine, and blood urea nitrogen (BUN) were measured. Renal histopathological changes were assessed by HE and PAS staining. Furthermore, the expression of candidate miRNAs from patient data was validated, and the mechanism of action of miR-183 was investigated using quantitative real-time PCR and Western blotting. (3) In vitro mechanistic investigations in cultured podocytes: Mouse podocyte clone-5 (MPC5) cells were cultured in vitro and subjected to the following conditions: normal glucose (5.3 mmol/L glucose), high glucose (30 mmol/L glucose), and osmotic control (5.3 mmol/L glucose+19.5 mmol/L mannitol). Cells in the logarithmic growth phase were transfected with the miR-183 inhibitor (100 nmol/L), miR-183 mimic (50 nmol/L), or their corresponding negative controls. A dual-luciferase reporter assay was conducted to validate the binding interaction between miR-183 and the 3'-untranslated region (3'UTR) of PTEN. The effects of miR-183 on the AKT signaling pathway, apoptosis-related proteins, and cell viability were evaluated by quantitative real-time PCR, Western blotting, and the cell counting kit-8 assay, respectively. Results:MiR-183 expression was markedly upregulated in renal tissues from DN patients and DN model rats (both P<0.05). Inhibition of miR-183 significantly reduced renal miR-183 levels by 90.2% ( P<0.01), decreased fasting blood glucose by 65.3% ( P<0.01), and improved renal function parameters, including reductions in urinary protein (40.3%), blood urea nitrogen (32.1%), urinary albumin excretion rate (22.5%), and serum creatinine (40.2%) (all P<0.01). Histological analyses showed attenuation of glomerular lesions and glycogen accumulation. Bioinformatic prediction and experimental validation identified PTEN as a direct target of miR-183, confirmed by dual-luciferase assays. In vitro, miR-183 inhibition increased PTEN expression, reduced AKT phosphorylation, promoted podocyte proliferation, and suppressed apoptosis (upregulation of Bcl-2 and downregulation of cleaved-caspase-3). These effects were abolished upon PTEN knockdown. Conclusions:miR-183 aggravates DN by targeting PTEN and activating the AKT signaling pathway. Inhibition of miR-183 improves renal function and reduces podocyte apoptosis, suggesting miR-183 as a potential therapeutic target for DN.
