Objective To explore the effects of CDP-diacylglycerol synthase 1(CDS1)on autophagy and amyloid deposition in hippocampal neurons of mice and the related mechanism.Methods Congo red and immunohistochemical staining were used to observe the amyloid deposition in hippocampus of amyloid precursor protein(APP)/presenilin 1(PS1)double-transgenic mice.Lentivirus-mediated overexpression of APP was induced in HT22 cells,and Congo red staining was used to observe the amyloid deposition in HT22 cells.The protein expression levels of microtubule-associated protein 1 light chain 3(LC3)-Ⅱ and P62 in the hippocampus of APP/PS1 double-transgenic mice and APP-overexpressed HT22 cells were detected by Western blotting.The differential protein CDS1 was screened based on the hippocampal proteomics results of APP/PS1 double-transgenic mice.The expression of CDS1 protein in hippocampal tissue of APP/PS1 transgenic mice and APP-overexpressed HT22 cells was detected by Western blotting.After lentivirus-mediated APP overexpression in HT22 cells,CDS1 was overexpressed,and the protein expression levels of LC3-Ⅱ and P62 were detected by Western blotting.Results β-amyloid protein(Aβ)was deposited in the hippocampus of APP/PS1 mice and in HT22 cells overexpressing APP.The levels of LC3-Ⅱ and P62 protein in the hippocampus of APP/PS1 double-transgenic mice and APP-overexpressed HT22 cells were significantly increased.A differential metabolic pathway,glycerophospholipid metabolic pathway,was screened by Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes pathway analysis in the proteomic results of APP/PS1 double-transgenic mice,and the differential protein CDS1 was obtained.Compared with wild-type C57BL/6 mice,APP/PS1 double-transgenic mice exhibited a significantly decrease in CDS1 protein expression in the hippocampus(0.46±0.07 vs 1.00±0.25,P＜0.01).Similarly,lentivirus-mediated overexpression of APP in HT22 cells resulted in decreased CDS1 protein levels compared to cells infected with empty viral vector controls(0.68±0.18 vs 1.00±0.13,P＜0.01).The autophagy flow of nerve cells was significantly restored after the CDS1 overexpression in APP-overexpressed HT22 cells(LC3-Ⅱ:1.00±0.15 vs 0.21±0.05,P＜0.01;P62:1.00±0.16 vs 0.67±0.10,P＜0.01),and Aβ deposition was significantly decreased.Conclusion Downregulation of CDS1 expression can induce dysfusion of autophagosome and lysosome,promoting amyloid deposition in hippocampus of mice with Alzheimer's disease.

Objective To investigate the status of oral frailty(OF)in patients who underwent chemotherapy for lung cancer,identify key factors influencing OF,and develop a risk prediction model.Methods Using convenience sampling,431 lung cancer inpatient were recruited from three Tier-IIIA hospitals in Jiangsu Province between September and November 2024 as the training cohort.The patients were divided into OF and non-OF groups.Relevant data were compared between the two groups.Multifactorial logistic regression analysis was performed to determine factors that associated with OF,and a risk prediction model was created accordingly.Receiver operating characteristic(ROC)curve analysis was used to predict model performance.In December 2024,additional 185 patients from one other Tier-IIIA hospitals were recruited to validate the developed model.Results The prevalence of OF among lung-cancer patients undergoing chemotherapy was 58.93%.Following listed items were identified as the risk factors of OF(all P<0.05):older in age(OR=3.420),poor education(OR=0.030),brain metastasis(OR=7.880),high nutritional risk screening 2002 score(OR=1.550),elevated C-reactive protein(OR=1.100),and elevated lactate dehydrogenase(OR=1.010).ROC area under the curve(AUC)of the model was 0.860(95%CI:0.830-0.900)in modelling cohort and 0.840(95%CI:0.780-0.900)in validation cohort.Hosmer-Lemeshow goodness-of-fit test yielded χ 2=4.870,P=0.770 for the training set and χ 2=2.770,P=0.950 for the validation set.Conclusion The risk prediction model for OF developed in this study demonstrates a good predictive performance and can facilitate early identification of high-risk patients,thereby providing a scientific basis for clinical interventions.

Objective To evaluate the efficacy and safety of enteric-coated metformin hydrochloride capsules(Junlida?)in patients with T2DM and poor glycemic control under lifestyle interventions.Methods In this study,419 patients with T2DM were recruited from 15 research centers from July 2020 to March 2022,and randomly divided into observation(Obs)group(n=209)and control group(Con,n=210)using a multicenter,randomized,double-blind,non-inferiority trial design.Patients in the Obs group were treated with enteric-coated Metformin hydrochloride capsules(Junlida?),and patients in the Con group were treated with Metformin hydrochloride tablets(Glucophage?).The optimal effective dose of 2 g/d was achieved within 4 weeks,and the reasonable dose was maintained until the end of treatment.The treatment period was 24 weeks.HbA1c and its compliance rate,FPG,and body weight were compared between the two groups in full analysis set(FAS)and protocol set(PPS).Safety and adverse events(AE)were evaluated in safety set(SS).Results A total of 414 participants were randomized(207 cases in Obs group and 207 cases in Con group).414 cases in FAS population(207 cases in Obs group and 207 cases in Con group),and 328 cases in PPS population(164 cases in Obs group and 164 cases in Con group),and 414 cases in SS population(207 cases in Obs group and 207 cases in Con group).After treatment,HbA1c,FPG and body weight were lower in both groups(P<0.05)in FAS and PPS.HbA1c compliance rate was not significantly different between the two groups in FAS and PPS(P>0.05).The results of non-inferiority test showed that the lower limit was>-0.4%in both FAS(-0.154,95%CI-0.384～0.069)and PPS(-0.139,95%CI-0.390～0.112),and the Obs group reached non-inferiority end point.The achievement rate,compliance rate,safety index and incidence of AE were not significantly different between the two groups(P>0.05).Conclusions Junlida? demonstrated non-inferiority to Glucophage? in glycemic control and can be safely and effectively used in patients with diabetes.

Objective:To analyze the burden and trends of noncommunicable chronic disease(NCD) attributable to metabolic factors in China from 1990 to 2021.Methods:Data from the Global Burden of Diseases(GBD) 2021 database were utilized to describe changes in mortality and disability-adjusted life years(DALYs) of NCD in China from 1990 to 2021. Stratified analyses were conducted by age, sex, sociodemographic index(SDI), and related risk factors. Statistical analyses and predictions were conducted using the age-period-cohort model and the Nordpred model.Results:In 2021, the age-standardized mortality rate and age-standardized DALYs rate of NCD attributable to metabolic factors in China were 227.56 per 100 000 and 4 829.39 per 100 000, respectively. Their average annual percentage changes were -0.76%( P<0.001) and -0.77%( P<0.001). Overall, the burden decreased progressively with higher SDI levels. Analysis using the age-period-cohort model indicated reduced birth cohort and period effects for metabolic factor-attributable NCD, while age effects rose significantly. The minimum relative risk( RR) value was observed in the 15-19 age group( RR=0.01), and the maximum RR value occurred in the 95-99 age group( RR=996.86). The overall rising mortality trend indicated that age effects are the predominant driver at present. Projections estimate that by 2046, deaths from metabolic factor-attributable NCD in China will reach 8 189 563, with an age-standardized mortality rate of 236.95 per 100 000. Conclusions:China continues to face a substantial burden of NCD linked to metabolic factors, with older adults, males, and individuals with hypertension, diabetes, and prediabetes identified as key populations requiring targeted interventions.

Objective:To investigate the clinical characteristics and independent risk factors of severe disease in patients with anti-nuclear matrix protein (NXP) 2 antibody-positive juvenile dermatomyositis (JDM).Methods:A retrospective cohort study was conducted, including 219 anti-NXP2 antibody-positive JDM patients admitted to 23 children′s hospitals across China from July 2011 to July 2023. Patients were classified into severe and non-severe groups based on classification criteria for severe dermatomyositis. Demographic characteristics, clinical manifestations, and laboratory parameters were compared between the 2 groups using independent sample t-test, Mann-Whitney U test, or χ2 test. Univariate and multivariate Logistic regression analyses were performed to identify risk factors for severe disease. The receiver operating characteristic curve was employed to calculate optimal cut-off values. Results:Among the 219 patients, 108 were male and 111 were female, with an age at onset of 6.3 (3.5, 9.4) years. The severe group comprised 69 patients, and the non-severe group 150 patients. The severe group had significantly higher rates of fever, heliotrope rash, subcutaneous edema, periorbital edema, anti-Ro52 antibody positivity, as well as elevated levels of ferritin-to-albumin ratio (FAR), creatine kinase (CK), aspartate aminotransferase (AST), and lactate dehydrogenase (LDH) (all P<0.05). Multivariate analysis identified anti-Ro52 antibody positivity ( OR=13.26, 95% CI 1.37-128.29) and elevated FAR ( OR=1.90, 95% CI 1.09-2.31) as independent risk factors for severe anti-NXP2 antibody-positive JDM (both P<0.05). Receiver operating characteristic curve analysis revealed that a FAR cutoff value of 6.82 predicted severe disease with an area under the curve of 0.87 (95% CI 0.81-0.94, P<0.001), sensitivity of 0.85, and specificity of 0.70. All patients received glucocorticoid therapy, and the severe group received higher proportions of steroid pulse therapy, cyclophosphamide, mycophenolate mofetil, intravenous immunoglobulin, biologics, and adjuvant treatments compared to the non-severe group (all P<0.05). In terms of outcomes, 2 patients (2.9%) in the severe group died (due to neurological involvement and intestinal perforation, respectively), while the remaining patients achieved complete clinical response or remission. All patients in the non-severe group achieved remission. Conclusions:The primary clinical features of anti-NXP2 antibody-positive JDM included fever, heliotrope rash, subcutaneous edema, periorbital edema, anti-Ro52 antibody positivity, and elevated levels of CK, AST, LDH, and FAR. Furthermore, anti-Ro52 antibody positivity and a FAR>6.82 were identified as independent risk factors.

Objective To investigate the characteristics of cognitive inhibition in children with hearing impairment and the impact of different types of materials on their cognitive inhibition.Methods From June,2024 to January,2025,21 children with hearing impairment from Liaocheng Special Education School and 20 typically developing children from Guotun Town Central Primary School in Yanggu County,Liao-cheng were randomly selected.A directed forgetting task was used in a mixed experimental design.The experi-mental procedure was presented using Eprime 3.0,and recall performance was recorded through paper-and-pen-cil tests.Results Three children with hearing impairment and two typically developing children were dropped down.The children with hearing impairment scored significantly lower on recall tasks than the typically developing children(F=13.545,P<0.001).In the typically developing children,recall performance under the memory condition was sig-nificantly lower than under the forgetting condition(P<0.001).In the children with hearing impairment,there was no significant difference in recall performance between the memory condition and the forgetting condition(P>0.05).Regardless of whether the materials were letters or figures,all the children showed significantly high-er recall scores under the forgetting condition compared to the memory condition(P<0.01).Conclusion Children with hearing impairment exhibit weaker cognitive inhibition compared to typically developing chil-dren.The type of materials doesn't impact individuals'cognitive inhibition performance.

Objective To study the effect of medial collateral ligament(MCL)release on the squatting motion followling total knee arthroplasty(TKA)and provide reference data for ligament release during knee replacement surgery.Methods Based on CT and MRI images of a volunteer,a three-dimensional(3D)geometric anatomical model of the natural knee joint including bone tissues and major soft tissues was established.A finite element model of the artificial knee joint was established by simulating TKA surgery.The squatting motion after 30％release of the upper end,lower end,and both ends of the MCL was simulated,and motion characteristic data of the knee joint at flexion/extension angles from 0° to 135° were obtained.Results The effects of ligament release at different locations on knee squatting motion varied.After releasing the lower end,the medial translation,posterior translation,superior translation,and adduction of the femur relative to the tibia increased by 13.74％,3.83％,9.74％,and 2.37％,respectively,while the external rotation decreased by 36.8％.After releasing the upper end,the medial translation and posterior translation increased by 10.65％and 10％,respectively,while the superior translation,adduction,and external rotation decreased by 4.52％,33.89％,and 67.1％,respectively.After releasing both ends,the medial translation,posterior translation,and superior translation increased by 14.77％,9.39％,and 22.56％,respectively,while the adduction and external rotation decreased by 15.62％and 47.3％,respectively.Conclusions After MCL released,the medial translation,anterior translation,superior translation,and abduction of the femur relative to the tibia increased,while the external rotation decreased.Releasing the lower end had the least effect on these femoral movements,showing an obvious advantage.

Objective:To understand the current status of oral frailty in elderly diabetic patients and analyze its influencing factors.Methods:A convenience sampling method was used to select elderly diabetic patients hospitalized at Henan Cancer Hospital and Henan Provincial People's Hospital from October 2023 to May 2024. The general information questionnaire, Oral Frailty Index-8 (OFI-8) , Short Form of Health Literacy Dental Scale (HeLD-14) , Nutritional Risk Screening 2002 (NRS 2002) , and the Diabetes Distress Scale (DDS) were used to collect data. Binary Logistic regression analysis was used to examine the influencing factors of oral frailty in elderly diabetic patients.Results:A total of 235 questionnaires were distributed, and 220 valid questionnaires were returned, with an effective response rate of 93.62% (220/235) . The incidence of oral frailty in elderly diabetic patients was 46.82% (103/220) . The binary Logistic regression analysis showed that glycated hemoglobin, dry mouth, remaining teeth, nutritional risk, oral health literacy, and diabetes distress were significant influencing factors for the occurrence of oral frailty in elderly diabetic patients ( P<0.05) . Conclusions:The current status of oral frailty in elderly diabetic patients is concerning. Healthcare providers should pay attention to the oral health status of elderly diabetic patients and provide targeted nursing interventions and recommendations based on the influencing factors of oral frailty, in order to reduce its occurrence.

Objective:To explore the influence of voice training combined with active breathing and circulation techniques on voice recovery following vocal cord polyp surgery. Methods:A total of 110 patients who underwent vocal cord polyp surgery at our hospital from May 2022 to November 2023 were selected and randomly divided into a control group （n=55） and a combination group （n=55） using a random number table method. During the recovery period, both groups received dietary control and aerosol treatment. The control group participated in voice training, while the combination group received active breathing and circulation techniques in addition to voice training for 2 months. Morphological changes, voice acoustic indicators （Shimmer, Jitter, Maximum Phonation Time[MPT]）, and the Voice Handicap Index （VHI） were compared between the two groups, and clinical efficacy was evaluated. Results:The combination group demonstrated higher clinical efficacy after training compared to the control group, with a statistically significant difference （P<0.05）. The proportion of incomplete closure, abnormal mucosal wave, and supraglottic compensation decreased in both groups after training （P<0.05）. However, there was no significant difference in the proportions of incomplete closure and abnormal mucosal wave between the two groups （P>0.05）. Notably, the proportion of patients with supraglottic compensation in the combination group was lower than in the control group （P<0.05）. After training, the Shimmer and Jitter values decreased in both groups, with the combination group exhibiting lower values （P<0.05）. Conversely, the MPT values increased in both groups, again with higher values in the combination group （P<0.05）. Additionally, after training, the functional, physiological, and emotional scores of the VHI decreased in both groups, with the scores in the combination group lower than those in the control group, demonstrating statistical significance （P<0.05）. Conclusion:Voice training combined with active breathing and circulation techniques has a beneficial effect on recovery following vocal cord polyp surgery. This combined approach significantly improves vocal cord morphology and acoustic indices, alleviates voice disorders, and enhances overall voice recovery.
