The growth and development of children is an important stage for health, and its monitoringand intervention are related to the long-term development of individuals. The construction of a standardized and multi-dimensional database of pediatric growth and development-related diseases is an important basis for realizing precise diagnosis and treatment and health management. Based on the needs of clinical practice, this study proposes to establish a specialized database of pediatric growth and development-related diseases that integrates facial phenotypes and clinical diagnosis and treatment information. This study elaborates on the construction process, including data sources, data collection content, and the operation and management of the database; and proposes key points for quality control, including the establishment of quality control nodes, database construction standards, and a full-process quality control framework. The above ensure the integrity, logic and effectiveness of the data, so that the database can provide an objective basis for the screening and diagnosis of pediatric growth and development-related diseases. On the basis of scientific data management and strict quality control, the database will help reveal the patterns of children's growth and development, and promote the level of children's health management.

Aim To investigate the impact of Cinobu-facini on the proliferation,invasion,and apoptosis of HepG2 cells and the underlying mechanism.Methods The proliferation of HepG2 cells was assessed using the CCK-8 method following treatment with Cinobufaci-ni.The invasion capability of HepG2 cells was evalua-ted through Transwell assay after exposure to Cinobufa-cini.The apoptosis rates of HepG2 cells post Cinobufa-cini intervention were measured using flow cytometry,and the expression levels of VEGF in the culture medi-um of HepG2 cells were determined using enzyme-linked immunoassay.Furthermore,qRT-PCR and Western blot analyses were conducted to assess the im-pact of Cinobufacini on mRNA and protein expression levels related to the CXCL5/FOXD1/VEGF pathway.The interaction between CXCL5 and FOXD1 was inves-tigated via co-immunoprecipitation.Results Cinobufa-cini treatment led to a gradual decrease in HepG2 cell viability in a dose-dependent manner compared to the control group(P＜0.05).Moreover,Cinobufacini sig-nificantly suppressed HepG2 cell invasion(P＜0.05)while enhancing cell apoptosis(P＜0.05).Notably,Cinobufacini exhibited inhibitory effects on the CX-CL5/FOXD1/VEGF pathway,as evidenced by re-duced expression of related mRNA and proteins(P＜0.05).FOXD1 was identified as the binding site of CXCL5.Overexpression of CXCL5 resulted in in-creased proliferation and VEGF secretion by HepG2 cells(P＜0.05),and increased expression of FOXD1 and VEGF(P＜0.05).However,Cinobufacini inter-vention effectively inhibited liver cancer cell prolifera-tion and invasion(P＜0.05),promoted apoptosis(P＜0.05),reduced VEGF secretion by HepG2 cells(P＜0.05),and downregulated the expression of CXCL5 and FOXD1 in HepG2 cells(P＜0.05);but com-pared with the unexpressed group of Cinobufacini,its ability to inhibit cell activity was weakened(P＜0.05),and its ability to inhibit the expression of CX-CL5,FOXD1,and VEGF was weakened(P＜0.05).Conclusion Cinobufacini may inhibit HepG2 cell pro-liferation and invasion and promote HepG2 cell apopto-sis by regulating the CXCL5/FOXD1/VEGF pathway.

Objective To investigate the clinical efficacy and safety of single-port thoracoscopic surgery for elderly patients with non-small cell lung cancer(NSCLC).Methods The clinical data of 93 patients with NSCLC who underwent thoracoscopic lobectomy or segmentectomy was collected,the patients were divided into uniportal operation group(40 cases,received single-port thoracoscopic surgery)and single-operation port operation group(53 cases,received single-operation port thoracoscopic surgery)according to the operation methods.The operation time,the amount of blood loss,the number of lymph node dissection,chest drainage volume 3 days after surgery,duration of indwelling drainage tube,postoperative hospital stay,visual analogue scale(VAS)score of postoperative pain,and incidence of postoperative complications of patients between the two groups were compared.The cumulative survival rate between the two groups was compared.Results The operation were successfully completed in both groups.There was no statistically significant difference in terms of operation time,the amount of blood loss,the number of lymph node dissection,chest drainage volume 3 days after surgery,duration of indwelling drainage tube,or postoperative hospital stay of patients between the two groups(P>0.05).There was significant difference in VAS score of postoperative pain of patients between the two groups(P<0.05).There was no early death within 1 months after surgery in both groups.There was no significant difference in the incidence of complications between the two groups(P>0.05).After 4 to 30 months of follow-up,there was no significant difference in the cumulative survival rate between the two groups(P>0.05).Conclusion Single-port thoracoscopic lobectomy or segmentectomy for elderly patients with NSCLC has high safety and feasibility,with less trauma,faster recovery and less postoperative pain.

Objective:We aimed to develop a novel visualized model based on nomogram to predict postoperative overall survival.Methods:This was a multicenter, retrospective, observational cohort study, including participants with histologically confirmed gastric and colorectal cancer who underwent radical surgery from 11 medical centers in China from August 1, 2015 to June 30, 2018. Baseline characteristics, histopathological data and nutritional status, as assessed using Nutrition Risk Screening 2002 (NRS 2002) score and the scored Patient-Generated Subjective Global Assessment, were collected. The least absolute shrinkage and selection operator regression and Cox regression were used to identify variables to be included in the predictive model. Internal and external validations were performed.Results:There were 681 and 127 patients in the training and validation cohorts, respectively. A total of 188 deaths were observed over a median follow-up period of 59 (range: 58 to 60) months. Two independent predictors of NRS 2002 and Tumor-Node-Metastasis (TNM) stage were identified and incorporated into the prediction nomogram model together with the factor of age. The model's concordance index for 1-, 3- and 5-year overall survival was 0.696, 0.724, and 0.738 in the training cohort and 0.801, 0.812, and 0.793 in the validation cohort, respectively.Conclusions:In this study, a new nomogram prediction model based on NRS 2002 score was developed and validated for predicting the overall postoperative survival of patients with gastric colorectal cancer. This model has good differentiation, calibration and clinical practicability in predicting the long-term survival rate of patients with gastrointestinal cancer after radical surgery.

Objective:To describe disability rates of dementia in community residents aged 65 years and over in China,and explore related risk factors of disability.Methods:This study conducted an in-depth data analysis of the China Mental Health Survey.World Health Organization Disability Assessment Schedule 2.0(WHODAS 2.0)was used to assess dementia disability,Community Screening Interview for Dementia(CSID)and Geriatric Mental Status Examination(GMS)were used for dementia screening and diagnosing.Univariate analysis was used to calcu-late the weighted disability rates of dementia in population and in patients,and their population distribution.Multiple linear regression and logistic regression were used to analyze the risk factors of the occurrence of dementia disability and its severity.Results:The weighted disability rate of dementia was 2.1％in population,and 38.6％in pa-tients.The disability rates of comorbid dementia in population and in patients were higher than those of patients with only dementia.Female,older age,lower education level,lower economic status,and lower cognitive test scores in CSID had higher disability rates of dementia in population.Female and urban resident had higher disability rates of dementia in patients.Multiple linear regression showed economic status(β=0.11),gender(β=0.11),age(β=0.10),and treatment in the last 12 months(β=-0.20)were statistically associated with WHODAS 2.0 scores.Multiple logistic regression showed female(OR=2.81)and treatment in the last 12 months(OR=2.38)were statistically associated with disability.Conclusions:Persons with low economic status,female and elderly peo-ple are the high-risk groups for dementia disability.It should be paid attention to prevent dementia and its conse-quential disabilities.

Objective To study the risk factors and prognostic characteristics of pediatric silent lupus nephritis(SLN)with class Ⅲ to V.Methods A retrospective study was conducted to collect clinical data from 30 children diagnosed with SLN at the Department of Pediatrics,Second Xiangya Hospital,Central South University,from May 2007 to April 2023.Based on renal pathological classification,the patients were divided into a class Ⅱ group(12 cases)and a class Ⅲ to Ⅴ group(18 cases).The risk factors for the occurrence of class Ⅲ to Ⅴ SLN were analyzed,and the prognostic characteristics were summarized.Results Among the 30 SLN patients,the median follow-up time was 61.50 months.There were no statistically significant differences in the proportions of patients who discontinued glucocorticoids or achieved low disease activity status,nor in the annual decline rate of estimated glomerular filtration rate(eGFR)between the class Ⅱ and class Ⅲ to V groups(P>0.05).However,three patients in the class Ⅱ group progressed to stage 1 chronic kidney disease(CKD),while eight patients in the class Ⅲ to Ⅴ group reached stage 1 CKD,and four patients reached stage 2 CKD.Among the 26 female SLN patients,serum complement C3 levels in the class Ⅲ to Ⅴ group were lower than those in the class Ⅱ group(P<0.05).Serum C3 levels in SLN patients,as well as in female SLN patients,were negatively correlated with the fluorescence intensity of IgA,IgG,and C3 immune complexes in the kidneys(P<0.05).Additionally,serum C3 levels in female SLN patients were negatively correlated with the renal pathological activity index(P<0.05).Binary logistic regression analysis indicated that being female and having low serum complement C3 levels were risk factors for the occurrence of class Ⅲ to Ⅴ SLN in children(P<0.05).Conclusions Class Ⅲ to Ⅴ SLN is not uncommon among SLN children,and there remains a risk of long-term renal function progression.Being female and having low serum complement C3 levels are identified as risk factors for class Ⅲ to Ⅴ SLN in children.

Bone organoids can simulate the complex structure and function of the bone tissues, which makes them a frontier technology in organoid researches. Bone organoids show a tremendous potential of applications in bone disease modeling, bone injury repair, and medicine screening. Although advancements have been made so far in constructing bone organoids with functional structures like mineralization, bone marrow, trabecular bone, callus, woven bone, etc, the researches in this field are confronted with numerous challenges such as lack of standardized construction strategies and unified evaluation criteria, which limits their further promotion and application. To standardize researches in bone organoids, the Orthopedic Expert Committee of Geriatric Branch of Chinese Association of Gerontology and Geriatrics, the Youth Osteoporosis Group of Orthopedic Branch of Chinese Medical Association, the Osteoporosis Group of Orthopedic Surgeon Branch of Chinese Medical Doctor Association, and the Osteoporosis Committee of Shanghai Association of Integrated Traditional Chinese and Western Medicine organized related experts to formulate Expert consensus on the construction, evaluation, and application of bone organoids ( version 2024) based on an evidence-based approach. A total of 17 recommendations were put forth, aiming to standardize researches and clinical applications of bone organoids and enhance their value in scientific research and clinical practice.

Objective:To analyze the multimodal ultrasound characteristics of primary breast cancer and sentinel lymph node (SLN) and to establish a nomogram model for predicting SLN metastasis in invasive breast cancer, thereby providing reference for precise clinical diagnosis and treatment.Methods:A total of 329 patients diagnosed with invasive breast cancer and admitted to the Affiliated Hospital of Nanjing University of Chinese Medicine from June 2018 to October 2023 were retrospectively enrolled. They were randomly divided into a training cohort ( n=230) and a validation cohort ( n=99) in a ratio of 7 to 3. In the training cohort, ultrasound findings and clinical parameters were analyzed, univariate and multivariate Logistic regression analyses were used to identify independent predictive factors for SLN metastasis, and a nomogram model was constructed based on these factors. The ROC curve, calibration curve, and decision curve analysis (DCA) were plotted between the training and validation cohorts to assess the discrimination, calibration, and clinical applicability of the nomogram model. Results:Regression analysis identified 3 independent risk factors for establishing the nomogram prediction model: ratio of the long diameter to the short diameter of SLN ( P=0.020), lymphatic contrast-enhanced ultrasound (LCEUS) enhancement pattern ( P<0.001) and intravenous contrast-enhanced ultrasound (ICEUS) enhancement mode ( P=0.002). The area under the curve (AUC) of the training cohort was 0.888, the accuracy was 0.865; the AUC of the validation cohort was 0.870, the accuracy was 0.859, demonstrating good predictive performance of the model in both cohorts. The calibration curve demonstrated that the nomogram has a strong concordance between predicted and actual probability. DCA demonstrated that the nomogram could increase net benefit within a certain probability threshold range. Conclusions:The nomogram based on ratio of the long diameter to the short diameter of SLN, LCEUS enhancement pattern and ICEUS enhancement mode can effectively predict SLN status in patients with invasive breast cancer, facilitating precise diagnosis and treatment.

AIM To prepare the nanosuspensions of naringenin phospholipids complex,and to investigate their in vivo pharmacokinetics.METHODS High-pressure homogenization method was applied to preparing the nanosuspensions of phospholipids complex.With stabilizer type,stabilizer-phospholipids complex consumption ratio,homogeneous pressure and homogeneous frequency as influencing factors,particle size,PDI and Zeta potential as evaluation indices,the formulation was optimized by single factor test.The morphology was observed under transmission electron microscope,after which X-ray powder diffraction analysis was performed,solubility,oil-water partition coefficient,dissociation rate of phospholipids complex and accumulative release rate were determined.Twenty-four rats were randomly assigned into four groups and given intragastric administration of the 0.5%CMC-Na suspensions of naringenin and its phospholipids complex,nanosuspensions and nanosuspensions of phospholipids complex(30 mg/kg),respectively,after which blood collection was made at 0,0.25,0.5,1,1.5,2,3,4,5,6,8,10,12 h,HPLC was adopted in the plasma concentration determination of naringenin,and main pharmacokinetic parameters were calculated.RESULTS The optimal formulation was determined to be 50 mg for naringenin consumption,PVP K30+TPGS(1 ∶ 1)as stabilizer,3 ∶ 1 for stabilizer-phospholipids complex consumption ratio,100 MPa for homogeneous pressure,and 10 times for homogeneous frequency,respectively.The obtained spherical-like or oval nanosuspensions of phospholipids complex demonstrated the average particle size,PDI and Zeta potential of(260.53±25.86)nm,0.160±0.024 and(-31.08±1.37)mV,respectively.Naringenin existed in the nanosuspensions of phospholipids complex in an anamorphous state,along with increased solubility,oil-water partition coefficient and dissociation rate of phospholipids complex,and the accumulative release rate reached more than 90%within 4 h.Compared with raw medicine and nanosuspensions,the nanosuspensions of phospholipids complex displayed shortened tmax(P<0.05)and increased Cmax,AUC0-t,AUC0-∞(P<0.05,P<0.01),the relative bioavailability was enhanced to 4.38 times.CONCLUSION The nanosuspensions of phospholipids can enhance naringenin's solubility and dissolution rate,and promote its in vivo absorption.
