ObjectiveThis paper aims to observe the syndrome improvement and negative antigen conversion rate of Qingxuan Daozhi formula in the treatment of influenza in children （heat accumulation in the lung and stomach syndrome）. MethodsThrough a multi-center randomized controlled methodology design，confirmed influenza cases were collected from October 2022 to April 2023 in the pediatrics department of eight hospitals，such as Dongfang Hospital of Beijing University of Chinese Medicine. A total of 180 children with influenza and heat accumulation in the lung and stomach syndrome conforming to the standard were recruited through the clinic. The sick children meeting the inclusion criteria were randomly divided into groups by a block-randomized method. The children in the experimental group were treated with Qingxuan Daozhi formula for five days，and those in the control group were treated with Oseltamivir Phosphate Granules for five days. The primary efficacy indicator was the negative conversion rate of influenza antigen detection. Secondary efficacy indicators were the Canadian acute respiratory illness and flu scale （CARIFS） and the incidence of complications，severe cases， and critical cases. Follow-up observation was conducted on the day of enrollment，48 hours after medication，72 hours after medication， and （6+1） d after medication. ResultsOne hundred and eighty participants were randomly assigned to the experimental group （90 cases） or the control group （90 cases）. All participants were followed up during the study. Comparison of influenza antigen detection results in the primary efficacy indicators showed that the average time of negative influenza antigen conversion in the experimental group was （5.29±1.25） d，and that in the control group was （5.40±1.68） d，without a statistically significant difference. After five days of intervention，52 cases in the experimental group and 51 cases in the control group converted to negative，without a statistically significant difference. CARIFS score results in the secondary efficacy indicators showed that during 72 hours after intervention，there were statistically significant differences between the experimental group and the control group in three dimensions， including headache，muscle soreness， and the need for extra care （P<0.05）. On the （6+1） days after the intervention，the differences in both the experimental group and the control group were statistically significant in 10 dimensions， including sore throat，bad sleep，uncomfortable feeling，poor spirit and fatigue，crying more than usual，the need for extra care，symptom，function，influence on parents，and total score （P<0.05）. The comparison results within the group in the dimensional scores of symptom， function， and influence on parents，as well as the CARIFS total score showed that with the delay of follow-up time，scores of both groups decreased significantly，with a statistically significant difference （P<0.01）. Inter-group comparison results showed that the mean score of the experimental group was higher than that of the control group at the time of enrollment. With the progress of intervention，the score of the experimental group was significantly decreased compared with that of the control group. At the end of follow-up，the mean score of the experimental group was lower than that of the control group，with no statistically significant difference. In terms of the incidence of complications，severe cases， and critical cases， there were no complications，severe cases， and critical cases in the two groups，without a statistically significant difference. ConclusionThe symptom improvement effect and negative antigen conversion rate of Qingxuan Daozhi formula in the treatment of influenza in children （heat accumulation in the lung and stomach syndrome） are not inferior to Oseltamivir Phosphate granules， and children's acceptance is better. It can be more widely used in clinical treatment of influenza in children （heat accumulation in the lung and stomach syndrome）.

Objective:To compare the efficacy of two surgical approaches for lumbar Brucellar spondylitis: one-stage posterior approach debridement with intervertebral bone graft fusion and pedicle screw-rod internal fixation (simple posterior group) versus one-stage anterior approach debridement with intervertebral bone graft fusion combined with posterior pedicle screw-rod internal fixation (combined anterior-posterior group).Methods:A systematic search was performed in the Cochrane Library, PubMed, Embase, China National Knowledge Infrastructure (CNKI), Chinese Biomedical Literature Database (CBM), VIP, and Wanfang Data from the time of database establishment to May 2024 to identify randomized controlled trial (RCT) and controlled clinical trial (CCT) comparing the two surgical approaches (simple posterior group and combined anterior-posterior group) in the treatment of lumbar Brucellar spondylitis. Meta-analysis was conducted by two researchers using RevMan 5.4.0 and Stata 13.1 software.Results:A total of 8 studies (2 RCTs, 6 CCTs studies) were included, including 669 patients (344 in the simple posterior group and 325 in the combined anterior-posterior group). Meta-analysis results revealed that the simple posterior group demonstrated shorter surgical time [ WMD = - 125.68, 95% CI ( - 186.84, - 64.53), P < 0.001], less intraoperative bleeding [ WMD = - 385.76, 95% CI ( - 572.40, - 199.11), P < 0.001], shorter hospital stay [ WMD = - 5.60, 95% CI ( - 8.30, - 2.91), P < 0.001], earlier postoperative ambulation time [ WMD = - 6.15, 95% CI ( - 10.72, - 1.59), P = 0.008], and a smaller Cobb angle at 3 months after surgery [ WMD = - 0.66, 95% CI ( - 1.23, - 0.09), P = 0.020]. However, there was no statistically significant differences in erythrocyte sedimentation rate [ WMD = 0.01, 95% CI ( - 0.90, 0.93), P = 0.980], visual analogue scale scores [ WMD = - 0.19, 95% CI ( - 0.40, 0.01), P = 0.070], Oswestry disability index score [ WMD = 0.02, 95% CI ( - 0.61, 0.66), P = 0.950] at 3 months after surgery, and postoperative complication rate [ OR = 0.57, 95% CI (0.17, 1.94), P = 0.370]. Conclusions:Compared with the combined anterior-posterior approach, the simple posterior approach has the advantages of shorter surgical time, less bleeding, and faster postoperative recovery. However, there is no significant difference between the two in terms of symptom improvement, functional recovery, and incidence of complications. Simple posterior approach surgery is an effective choice for treating lumbar Brucellar spondylitis.

Objective:To investigate the effect of the embryo cryopreservation duration on pregnancy and obstetric outcome.Methods:A retrospective cohort study of 2 662 frozen-thawed embyro tranfer (FET) cycles was conducted in the Reproductive Medicine Center, Department of Obstetrics and Gynecology, Tianjin Medical University General Hospital from January 2016 to December 2020. According to embryo cryopreservation duration, the patients were divided into group A (≤1 year, n=2 115), group B (>1 years and ≤3 years, n=319), group C (>3 years and ≤6 years, n=174), and group D (>6 years, n=54). We used the propensity score matching (PSM) to match the baseline data of oocyte retrieval age of the other three groups according to group D at a ratio of 1∶3. Clinical and obstetric outcomes were compared among the four groups. Multiple logistic regression analysis was used to analyze the effect of oocyte retrieval age, embryo transfer age, the duration of embryo cryopreservation, endometrial preparation scheme, endometrial thickness, the number of transferred embryos and the number of high-quality embryos on pregnancy and live birth outcome. Results:1) Before PSM, there were significant differences in the maternal age at oocyte retrieval and embryo transfer and duration of embryo cryopreservation among the four groups(all P<0.001). 2) After PSM, the baseline characteristics of oocyte retrieval age reached a balance among the four groups. There were no statistical differences in the number of embryos transfer, the number of high-quality embryos, the transferred embryo stage, the endometrial regimen among the groups (all P>0.05). The clinical pregnancy rate [37.04% (20/54)] and the live birth rate [33.33% (18/54)] in group D were lower than those in group A [51.57% (82/159), 40.88% (65/159)], group B [50.00% (65/130), 40.77% (53/130)] and group C [49.59% (61/123), 39.02% (48/123)], but the difference was not statistically significant between the four groups ( P=0.310, P=0.781). There were no statistical differences among the four groups in the ratio of male to female newborns, gestational age, birth weight, preterm delivery rate, low birth weight rate, macrosomia rate, birth defects, and premature repture of membranes (all P>0.05). 3) Multiple logistic regression analysis showed that the number of high-quality embryos transferred affected the clinical pregnancy outcome (before PSM, OR=2.614, 95% CI: 2.168-3.151, P<0.001; after PSM, OR=1.984, 95% CI: 1.406-2.800, P<0.001) and live birth (before PSM, OR=2.708, 95% CI: 2.198-3.336, P<0.001; after PSM, OR=2.122, 95% CI: 1.474-3.053, P<0.001). The duration of embryo cryopreservation does not affect the clinical outcome and live birth (all P>0.05). Conclusion:The duration of embryo cryopreservation does not affect the clinical outcome and live birth, but large sample data are still needed to support this conclusion in the future.

A retrospective analysis was conducted on a case of recurrence during pregnancy of early-stage endometrial cancer (EEC) after fertility-preserving treatment, and literature review was conducted. The patient underwent two cycles of controlled ovarian stimulation and three cycles of frozen-thawed embryo transfer after fertility-preserving treatment, early abortion after the third transfer and meanwhile the recurrence of endometrial cancer was found. Fertility-preserving retreatment was given after multidisciplinary discussion based on the patient's fertility intention, ultrasound, pelvic magnetic resonance imaging and other examinations. After complete remission, the remaining cryopreserved embryos of the patient were tested for euploidy by preimplantation genetic testing, and the euploid embryo was transferred and delivered at term successfully. Fertility-preserving treatment for patients with EEC need comprehensive management to reduce the recurrence rate. Recurrent patients can choose fertility-preserving retreatment under a comprehensive evaluation.

BACKGROUND:High-intensity resistance training effectively improves muscle strength,but with a high risk of arteriosclerosis;high-intensity resistance training combined with aerobic exercise effectively reduces the level of arteriosclerosis;low-intensity resistance combined with blood flow restriction training does not require high load strength to stimulate muscles,which may be a scientific training method to improve muscle strength and maintain arterial elasticity.OBJECTIVE:To explore the effects of 12 weeks of low-intensity resistance training combined with blood flow restriction training on body composition,muscle strength,and arterial elasticity in young people,thereby providing theoretical support for the development of personalized training programs.METHODS:Fifty-five college students were randomly recruited and divided by drawing lots into high-intensity resistance training group,high-intensity resistance training combined with aerobic exercise group,and low-intensity resistance training combined with blood flow restriction training group. All participants were subjected to 12 weeks of high-intensity resistance training,high-intensity resistance training combined with aerobic exercise,or low-intensity resistance training combined with blood flow restriction training,and their body composition,muscle strength,and arterial elasticity were tested after training. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:After 12 weeks of training intervention,the lean body mass of the high-intensity resistance training group and the low-intensity resistance training combined with blood flow restriction training group significantly increased (P<0.05). The one-repetition maximum and knee isokinetic muscle strength significantly increased in all the three groups (P<0.05). The arterial elasticity of the high-intensity resistance training combined with aerobic exercise group and the low-intensity resistance training combined with blood flow restriction training group significantly improved (P<0.05). These findings indicate that 12 weeks of high-intensity resistance training and low-intensity resistance training combined with blood flow restriction training significantly improve body composition;all the three training programs can increase muscle strength;12 weeks of high-intensity resistance training combined with aerobic exercise and low-intensity resistance training combined with blood flow restriction training both improve arterial elasticity,and the effect of low-intensity resistance training combined with blood flow restriction training is superior to that of high-intensity resistance training combined with aerobic exercise. Therefore,it is recommended that low-intensity resistance training combined with blood flow restriction training be used as the preferred training method to improve arterial elasticity,thus reducing the risk of arteriosclerosis.

Objective To investigate the role of Glycoprotein non-metastatic melanoma protein B(GPNMB)in hypoxia-induced epithelial-mesenchymal transition(EMT)in human chorionic trophoblast HTR-8/SVneo cells.Methods HTR-8/SVneo cells were cultured in vitro to investigate the effect of hypoxia on GPNMB expression.The cells were transfected with either a GPNMB overexpression plasmid(pcDNA3.1-GPNMB),small interfering RNA targeting GPNMB(si-GPNMB-1/2),or their respective negative controls(pcDNA3.1-NC or si-NC),and were also treated with the autophagy agonist rapamycin(Rap).The experimental groups were categorized as follows:Normoxia,Hypoxia,Normoxia/Hypoxia+si-NC or si-GPNMB,Normoxia/Hypoxia+pcDNA3.1-NC or pcDNA3.1-GPNMB,Normoxia/Hypoxia+Rap,and Hypoxia+Rap+pcDNA3.1-NC or pcDNA3.1-GPNMB.GPNMB expression levels were evaluated using qRT-PCR,Western blotting,and immunofluorescence staining.The expression of autophagy-related proteins(LC3B Ⅱ/Ⅰ,p62)and epithelial-mesenchymal transition(EMT)markers(E-cadherin,N-cadherin)was analyzed by Western blotting.Cell migration and invasion capacities were assessed using wound healing and Transwell assays.Results Compared with the Normoxia group,the mRNA and protein levels of GPNMB were downregulated in the Hypoxia group.Additionally,the protein levels of p62 and N-cadherin were reduced,while LC3B Ⅱ/Ⅰ and E-cadherin expression levels were increased(P<0.05).Compared with the Hypoxia+si-NC group,the Hypoxia+si-GPNMB-2 group showed significantly decreased protein levels of p62 and N-cadherin,along with elevated levels of LC3B Ⅱ/Ⅰ and E-cadherin(P<0.05).Compared with the Hypoxia+pcDNA3.1-NC group,the Hypoxia+pcDNA3.1-GPNMB group exhibited opposite trends.Notably,compared with the Hypoxia group,the Hypoxia+Rap group showed increased LC3B Ⅱ/Ⅰ and E-cadherin levels,accompanied by reduced p62 and N-cadherin levels(P<0.05).However,compared with the Hypoxia+pcDNA3.1-GPNMB group,the Hypoxia+Rap+pcDNA3.1-GPNMB group attenuated the promoting effect of GPNMB overexpression on EMT in HTR-8/SVneo cells,as evidenced by decreased p62 and N-cadherin protein expression levels and increased LC3BⅡ/Ⅰ and E-cadherin protein expression levels(P<0.05).Conclusion In hypoxia-induced HTR-8/SVneo cells,GPNMB inhibits autophagy,promotes the epithelial-mesenchymal transition,and enhances cell migration and invasion.

Objective To explore the influencing factors of immune-associated thyroid dysfunction caused by sintilimab treatment in solid tumors and construct a prediction model.Methods Medical records of patients diagnosed with solid tumors and treated with sintilimab at Peking University People's Hospital(Xizhimen Campus,Tongzhou Campus,Shijiazhuang Campus)from January 2023 to September 2024 were collected to explore the influencing factors that caused immune-related thyroid dysfunction using univariate and multifactorial binary logistic regression analyses and to establish a prediction model.The predictive effect of the model was assessed using the receiver operating characteristic(ROC)curve.Results A total of 120 patients were included,and 33 presented with immune-related thyroid dysfunction.Multifactorial logistic regression analysis revealed that thyroid-stimulating hormone(TSH)[OR=2.470,95%CI=(1.279,4.771)]and treatment cycles[OR=1.298,95%CI=(1.117,1.509)]were independent risk factors for the occurrence of immune-associated thyroid dysfunction,and the difference was statistically significant(P＜0.05).The area under the ROC curve was(0.897±0.043)[95%CI=(0.813,0.981)],the Yoden index was 0.703,and the model prediction accuracy was 86.5%.Conclusion The risk of immune-related thyroid dysfunction caused by sintilimab is high,and TSH and treatment cycle are the influencing factors,and the constructed model has certain predictive value and is of reference significance.

To provide scientific guidance and standardization for perioperative clinical nursing practice in patients undergoing percutaneous renal biopsy, relevant evidence on percutaneous renal biopsy nursing care was systematically retrieved and synthesized through an evidence-based approach. After two rounds of Delphi expert consultation and expert panel discussions, expert consensus on perioperative clinical nursing standards for patients undergoing percutaneous renal biopsy (hereinafter referred to as the "Consensus") was developed. The Consensus includes three primary themes: preoperative care, intraoperative care, and postoperative care, encompassing 21 secondary themes. It is characterized by scientific rigor, practical applicability, and comprehensiveness, and serves as a valuable reference and guide for clinical nursing professionals across medical institutions.
