Comprehensive occupational hazard risk assessment in employers is a core component of the pilot program for occupational health classification supervision and law enforcement. The quality and effectiveness of classification-based supervision are directly affected by both the assessment process and its outcomes. However, several issues have emerged since the implementation of the pilot program on the comprehensive risk assessment, including an excessive number of self-assessment items, lack of implementation basis for certain self-assessment items, misinterpretation for certain self-assessment items, inconsistencies between evaluation criteria and existing standards, incomplete implementation of some items, omission of comprehensive risk assessment elements, unclear definitions of key industries and key occupational hazards, and inconvenient assessment procedures on comprehensive risk assessment. To enhance the applicability, accuracy, and objectivity of the comprehensive risk assessments conducted by employers, it is recommended to optimize self-assessment items, standardize risk assessment content, tailor comprehensive risk assessments to actual workplace conditions, refine the identification of key industries and key occupational hazards, improve comprehensive risk assessment methodologies, and establish clear grading rules for the comprehensive risk assessment.

This case report presents a 16-year-old male patient with deficiency of adenosine deaminase 2(DADA2). The patient had a history of Raynaud′s phenomenon with digital ulcers since childhood. As the disease progressed, the patient developed retinal vasculitis, intracranial hemorrhage, skin necrosis, severe malnutrition, refractory hypertension, and gastrointestinal bleeding. Genetic testing revealed compound heterozygous mutations in the ADA2 gene (paternal c.1072G > A pathogenic mutation + maternal c.1065C > A variant of unknown clinical significance). ADA2 enzyme activity was significantly reduced (0.1 U/L). A multidisciplinary treatment team developed an individualized plan to address key issues, including nutritional support, blood pressure control, rehabilitation, pain management, and balancing anticoagulation/bleeding risks. After systematic intervention, the patient′s condition showed partial improvement. This case reveals clinical challenges such as anticoagulation decisions and nutritional support of DADA2. It also emphasizes the importance of early molecular diagnosis, tumor necrosis factor-α inhibitor targeted therapy, and multidisciplinary collaboration in management, underlining the core value of precision medicine in rare disease management.

BACKGROUND: Treatment with chimeric antigen receptor-T (CAR-T) cells has shown promising effectiveness in patients with relapsed/refractory B-cell acute lymphoblastic leukemia (R/R B-ALL), although the process of preparing for this therapy usually takes a long time. We have recently created CD19 Fast-CAR-T (F-CAR-T) cells, which can be produced within a single day. The objective of this study was to evaluate and contrast the effectiveness and safety of CD19 F-CAR-T cells with those of CD19 conventional CAR-T cells in the management of R/R B-ALL. METHODS: A multicenter, retrospective analysis of the clinical data of 44 patients with R/R B-ALL was conducted. Overall, 23 patients were administered with innovative CD19 F-CAR-T cells (F-CAR-T group), whereas 21 patients were given CD19 conventional CAR-T cells (C-CAR-T group). We compared the rates of complete remission (CR), minimal residual disease (MRD)-negative CR, leukemia-free survival (LFS), overall survival (OS), and the incidence of cytokine release syndrome (CRS) and immune effector cell-associated neurotoxicity syndrome (ICANS) between the two groups. RESULTS: Compared with the C-CAR-T group, the F-CAR-T group had significantly higher CR and MRD-negative rates (95.7% and 91.3%, respectively; 71.4% and 66.7%, respectively; P = 0.036 and P = 0.044). No significant differences were observed in the 1-year or 2-year LFS or OS rates between the two groups: the 1-year and 2-year LFS for the F-CAR-T group vs.C-CAR-T group were 47.8% and 43.5% vs. 38.1% and 23.8% (P = 0.384 and P = 0.216), while the 1-year and 2-year OS rates were 65.2% and 56.5% vs. 52.4% and 47.6% (P = 0.395 and P = 0.540). Additionally, among CR patients who underwent allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (allo-HSCT) following CAR-T-cell therapy, there were no significant differences in the 1-year or 2-year LFS or OS rates: 57.1% and 50.0% vs. 47.8% and 34.8% (P = 0.506 and P = 0.356), 64.3% and 57.1% vs. 65.2% and 56.5% (P = 0.985 and P = 0.883), respectively. The incidence of CRS was greater in the F-CAR-T group (91.3%) than in the C-CAR-T group (66.7%) (P = 0.044). The incidence of ICANS was also greater in the F-CAR-T group (30.4%) than in the C-CAR-T group (9.5%) (P = 0.085), but no treatment-related deaths occurred in the two groups. CONCLUSION Compared with C-CAR-T-cell therapy, F-CAR-T-cell therapy has a superior remission rate but also leads to a tolerably increased incidence of CRS/ICANS. Further research is needed to explore the function of allo-HSCT as an intermediary therapy after CAR-T-cell therapy.

Objective To explore the clinical efficacy of Liuwei Dihuang Capsules for type 2 diabetes mellitus(T2DM)with yin deficiency syndrome and the effects on intestinal flora and inflammatory factors.Methods Totally 60 patients of T2DM with yin deficiency syndrome in Dongzhimen Hospital of Beijing University of Chinese Medicine from September 2022 to June 2023 were selected as the study objects,and were divided into control group and observation group according to the method of block randomization,with 30 cases in each group.Both groups received basic treatment.The control group was given a simulated agent of Liuwei Dihuang Capsules,while the observation group was given Liuwei Dihuang Capsules.The treatment course for both groups was 4 weeks.Clinical efficacy,blood glucose levels[fasting plasma glucose(FPG),2-hour postprandial plasma glucose(2 hPG),glycated albumin(GA)],serum insulin levels[fasting insulin(FINS)and insulin resistance index(HOMA-IR)],changes in gut microbiota,and serum inflammatory cytokine levels[interleukin(IL)-6,tumor necrosis factor(TNF)-α]of both groups were compared.Results The total effective rate of the observation group(76.67%)was better than that of the control group(50.00%)(P<0.05).Compared with before treatment,the FPG,2 hPG,GA,FINS and HOMA-IR decreased in the observation group,while the FPG,2 hPG and FINS decreased in the control group(P<0.05);after treatment,the Shannon index of the observation group increased after treatment(P<0.05),and the diversity of the microbiota increased;the abundance of the microbial communities such as Coprococcus 3,Cutibacterium,Pseudomonas,Faecalibaculum,Dubosiella and Mucispirillum significantly increased(P<0.05);the abundance of Sphingomonas,Corynebacterium 1,Ileibacterium,Ruminiclostridium and other microbiota communities significantly decreased(P<0.05).Compared with before treatment,the levels of IL-6 and TNF-α in both groups were significantly reduced after treatment(P<0.01,P<0.05).After treatment,the levels of IL-6 and TNF-α in the observation group were significantly lower than those in the control group(P<0.05).Conclusion Liuwei Dihuang Capsules can effectively reduce blood glucose levels in patients of T2DM with yin deficiency syndrome,improve insulin resistance,increase gut microbiota diversity,increase beneficial bacterial abundance,reduce harmful bacterial abundance,and alleviate inflammatory cytokine levels.

Objective:To investigate the effects and underlying mechanisms of Stat3 knockout in donor T cells on acute gastrointestinal graft-versus-host disease (GI-aGVHD) .Methods:BALB/c mice were exposed to lethal irradiation and transplanted with bone marrow and spleen cells from BALB/c mice (syngeneic control group), C57BL/6 mice (wild-type T cell group, WT group), or C57BL/6J-Stat3 em1cyagen mice (Stat3 gene knockout T cell group, Stat3-KO group) via tail vein injection to establish the aGVHD model. The survival rate, body weight changes, and clinical scores of mice were monitored. Cytometric bead array (CBA) was used to detect the concentrations of serum cytokines. Lymphocytes were isolated from tissues for flow cytometric analysis. H&E staining was performed to observe intestinal pathological changes. FITC-dextran assay was conducted to assess intestinal permeability. Immunohistochemistry was used to evaluate the expression of Ki67 and Muc2. Real-Time Quantitative Reverse Transcription PCR (qRT-PCR) was employed to analyze the gene expression levels of Olfm4, Lysozyme, and Muc2 in the small intestine. Metabolomics was conducted to detect metabolites in serum and intestinal tissues. An in vitro GI-aGVHD organoid model was established by coculturing intestinal organoids with allogeneic T cells, where the number and area of small intestinal organoids were recorded. The GVL effect was assessed using luciferase-transfected ALL cells (ALL/Luc) and bioluminescent imaging. Results:Compared with the WT group, Stat3 knockout T cells alleviated body weight loss, reduced symptoms—such as hunchback and diarrhea—in mice, improved survival rate ( P<0.05), and reduced serum interleukin (IL) -2, IL-6, interferon-γ, tumor necrosis factor-α, IL-17A, and IL-10 levels (all P<0.05), intestinal inflammatory cell infiltration ( P<0.05), and intestinal mucosal permeability. Further, Muc2 and Ki67 expression levels in the small intestine of the Stat3 knockout group were markedly increased, and Olfm4, Lysozyme, and Muc2 gene expression levels were significantly increased (all P<0.05). In vitro, the Stat3 knockout group demonstrated better organoid development than the WT group. Metabolomic analyses indicated that Stat3 knockout in T cells may affect the pathways associated with bile acid secretion and unsaturated fatty acids. ALL/Luc cells in the GVL mouse model proliferated rapidly in the TCD-BM group; however, 80% of the mice in the Stat3-KO group survived tumor-free for >100 days ( P<0.05) . Conclusion:Knocking out Stat3 in graft T cells reduces T cell damage to intestinal stem cells, thereby ultimately alleviating GI-aGVHD while maintaining a stable GVL effect.

Objective:To explore the effectiveness of robotic implant technology in the postgraduate education of implant dentistry.Methods:The teaching method that combines of theory and model manipulation was used to teach 20 postgraduate students. After completing the theoretical course of implant dentistry, all students performed free hand, digital template, and dental implant robot implant surgery on the simulation jaw models. At the end of the course, an error analysis of the three and a feedback questionnaire distributed to the students were conducted in order to assess the effectiveness of the dental implant robot.Results:Compared to the freehand [2.45(1.1) mm,2.80(0.88) mm,4.95°(2.68°)] and digital template group [1.25(0.68) mm,2.00(0.90) mm, 3.35°(1.60°)], the dental robot implant group had smaller values for implant platform deviation, apical deviation and angular deviation [0.29(0.08) mm,0.26(0.20) mm,0.72°(0.13°)], and the difference was statistically significant ( P<0.001). The results of the questionnaire showed that dental implant robot helps to ensure the accuracy and safety of the implanting process and stimulates students′ interest in learning. Conclusions:At postgraduate level, the safety and accuracy of the implantation process was effectively improved and good teaching result achieved by introducing dental implant robot into the process of dental implant training.

BACKGROUND:Traditional methods of urinary tract reconstruction are limited by donor scarcity,high complication rates,and suboptimal functional recovery.Tissue engineering strategies offer new directions in this field.Since the urinary tract is mainly composed of muscle tissue,the key is to find suitable seed cells and efficiently induce them to differentiate into smooth muscle cells.Comparative studies on the efficacy of different smooth muscle cell induction regimens are still lacking. OBJECTIVE:To isolate,culture,and identify human urine-derived stem cells,and to compare the effects of two different induction protocols. METHODS:Human urine-derived stem cells were isolated from urine samples of 11 healthy adult volunteers by multiple centrifugations.Surface markers were identified by flow cytometry.The multi-directional differentiation potential of human urine-derived stem cells was verified through osteogenic and adipogenic differentiation.Differentiation was induced by transforming growth factor-β1 or transforming growth factor-β1 combined with platelet derived growth factor for 14 days.Immunofluorescence staining and western blot assay were employed to compare the expression differences of smooth muscle-specific proteins(α-SMA and SM22). RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:(1)Urine-derived stem cells were successfully isolated from the eight urine samples of healthy people.These cells exhibit a"rice grain"-like morphology and possess a robust proliferative capacity.(2)Urine-derived stem cells exhibited high expression of mesenchymal stem cell surface markers(CD73,CD90,and CD44)and extremely low expression of hematopoietic stem cell surface markers(CD34 and CD45).These cells did not express CD19,CD105,and HLA-DR.(3)After osteogenic and adipogenic differentiation,the formation of calcium nodules and lipid droplets was observed,with positive staining results from Alizarin Red S and Oil Red O staining.(4)After 14 days of smooth muscle induction culture,immunofluorescence staining revealed that the smooth muscle differentiation rate of urine-derived stem cells treated with a combination of transforming growth factor-β1 and platelet derived growth factor was significantly higher compared to those treated with transforming growth factor-β1 alone(P<0.005).(5)After 14 days of smooth muscle induction culture,western blot assay further demonstrated that the expression levels of α-SMA and SM22 in the transforming growth factor-β1/platelet derived growth factor group were significantly elevated compared to those in the transforming growth factor-β1 only group(P<0.005).These findings confirm that urine-derived stem cells can be non-invasively isolated using multiple rounds of centrifugation.Compared with transforming growth factor-β1 alone,the combination of transforming growth factor-β1 and platelet derived growth factor can improve the efficiency of inducing urine-derived stem cells to differentiate into smooth muscle cells.

Objective To investigate the association between D-dimer levels within 2 hours of admission and in-hospital major adverse events (MAEs) in patients with acute type A aortic dissection (ATAAD) who underwent total arch replacement combined with frozen elephant trunk (FET) implantation. Methods This retrospective study included patients with ATAAD who underwent total arch replacement with FET implantation at Fuwai Yunnan Cardiovascular Hospital from September 2017 to December 2022. Patients were divided into two groups based on the occurrence of in-hospital MAEs: a MAEs group and a non-MAEs group (control). Perioperative data were compared between the two groups. Univariate and multivariate logistic regression analyses were performed to identify risk factors for in-hospital MAEs, which included in-hospital death, gastrointestinal bleeding, paraplegia, acute kidney injury, low cardiac output syndrome, stroke, respiratory failure, multiple organ dysfunction syndrome, and severe infection. The predictive value of D-dimer was evaluated using the area under the receiver operating characteristic curve (AUC). Results A total of 218 patients were included (157 males, 61 females), with a mean age of (51.54±9.79) years. There were 152 patients in the non-MAEs group and 66 in the MAEs group. The overall incidence of in-hospital MAEs was 30.3%, and the in-hospital mortality rate was 2.8% (6/218). Compared to the non-MAEs group, the MAEs group had significantly higher levels of D-dimer and lactate, as well as longer cardiopulmonary bypass time, aortic cross-clamp time, and ICU length of stay (all P<0.05). Multivariate logistic regression analysis identified D-dimer as an independent risk factor for in-hospital MAEs [OR=1.077, 95%CI (1.020, 1.137), P=0.013]. The AUC for the D-dimer level within 2 hours of admission to predict in-hospital MAEs was 0.83 [95%CI (0.736, 0.870), P<0.001]. The optimal cutoff value was 2.2 μg/mL, with a sensitivity of 84.8% and a specificity of 73.0%. Conclusion The serum D-dimer level is an independent risk factor for in-hospital MAEs in patients with ATAAD following total arch replacement with FET implantation. D-dimer levels on admission can help clinicians optimize risk stratification and perioperative management, potentially reducing the incidence of early adverse events.
