Objective:To analyze the predictive value of von Willebrand factor (vWF) for venous thromboembolism (VTE) of patients in intensive care unit (ICU) by using propensity score matching (PSM).Methods:Patients admitted to ICU of the Second Affiliated Hospital of Kunming Medical University from December 2020 to June 2022 who stayed in ICU for ≥72 hours and underwent daily bedside vascular ultrasound screening were included. Baseline data such as age, gender, primary disease, and chronic comorbidities were collected. Coagulation indexes before admission to ICU and 24 hours and 48 hours after ICU admission were collected, including prothrombin time (PT), activated partial thromboplastin time (APTT), thrombin time (TT), international normalized ratio (INR), fibrinogen (Fib), fibrin monomer (FM), vWF, D-dimer, antithrombin Ⅲ (ATⅢ), etc. Patients were divided into VTE group and non-VTE group according to whether they had VTE or not [diagnosis of VTE: patients underwent daily ultrasound screening of bedside blood vessels (both upper and lower limbs, visceral veins), and those suspected of having thrombosis were confirmed by ultrasonographer or pulmonary angiography]. Using PSM analysis method, the VTE group was used as the benchmark to conduct 1 : 1 matching of age, whether there was malignant tumor, whether there was infection, whether there was diabetes, and coagulation indicators before admission to ICU. Finally, the cases with balanced covariates between the two groups were obtained. The risk factors of VTE were analyzed by multivariate Logistic regression analysis. Receiver operator characteristic curve (ROC curve) was drawn to evaluate the predictive value of vWF in the occurrence of VTE in critically ill patients.Results:A total of 120 patients were enrolled, of which 18 (15.0%) were diagnosed with VTE within 72 hours after admission to ICU, and 102 (85.0%) were not found to have thrombus in ICU. Before PSM, there were significant differences in age, gender, proportion of malignant tumor and infection, and coagulation indexes between VTE group and non-VTE group. After PSM, 14 pairs were successfully matched, and the unbalanced covariables between the two groups reached equilibrium. Multivariate Logistic regression analysis showed that vWF was an independent risk factor for VTE at 48 hours after ICU admission in critically ill patients [odds ratio ( OR) = 1.165, 95% confidence interval (95% CI) was 1.000-1.025, P = 0.004]. ROC curve analysis showed that the area under the ROC curve (AUC) of vWF at 48 hours after ICU admission for predicting VTE was 0.782, 95% CI was 0.618-0.945, P = 0.007. When the optimal cut-off value was 312.12%, the sensitivity was 67.7% and the specificity was 93.0%. Conclusion:Dynamic monitoring of vWF is helpful to predict the occurrence of VTE in ICU patients, and vWF at 48 hours after ICU admission has certain value in predicting the occurrence of VTE.

Objective:To explore the correlation between high cholinergic pathway signaling and cognitive function in patients with Parkinson disease(PD) accompanied with sleep disorder.Methods:PD patients admitted from 2017 to 2022 were divided into PD with sleep disorder group (PD-SD group) ( n=56) and PD without sleep disorder group (PD-NSD group) ( n=41) according to the Parkinson's disease sleep scale (PDSS) score. All participants underwent magnetic resonance imaging examination.All patients were evaluated by the PDSS, Hoehn-Yahr (H-Y), Montreal cognitive assessment scale (MoCA), and cholinergic pathways hyper intensities scale (CHIPS). The difference of cognitive function between the two groups and the correlation between CHIPS and cognitive function were analyzed.Independent sample t-test, Spearman correlation analysis, and binary Logistic regression analysis were performed on the data by SPSS 26.0 statistical software. Results:(1)The MoCA score of the PD-SD group (22.00 (5.00)) was lower than that of the PD-NSD group (26.00 (5.00)) ( Z=-3.830, P<0.05). The total and all aspects scores of CHIPS in PD-SD group were higher than those in PD-NSD group(the total score of the low external capsule: 12.00(8.00), 0(8.00), the total score of the high external capsule: 12.00(2.00), 6.00(9.00), the total score of the radial crown: 8.00(0), 4.00(4.00), the total score of the centrum semiovale: 3.00(4.00), 0(2.00), the total score of the right side: 16.00(9.00), 5.00(10.00), the total score of the left side: 17.00(6.00), 7.00(9.00), the total score of CHIPS: 32.00(14.00), 14.00(20.00))( Z=-5.081, -5.873, -4.933, -3.211, -5.562, -6.232, -5.995, all P<0.05). (2)The correlation analysis between the score of CHIPS and cognitive function in the PD-SD group showed that, the total score of the low external capsule ( r=-0.286), the total score of the centrum semiovale ( r=-0.307), the total score of the right side ( r=-0.376), the total score of the left side ( r=-0.284) and the total score of CHIPS ( r=-0.349) were negatively correlated with MoCA(all P<0.05). (3)Binary Logistic regression analysis showed that white matter lesions in centrum semiovale, low inner capsule, right and left leukodystrophy were not influence factors for cognitive impairment (all P>0.05). Conclusion:PD patients with sleep disorders have lower cognitive function scores, higher CHIPS scores, and significant changes in white matter lesions compared to those without sleep disorders. In PD patients with sleep disorders, the higher the CHIPS score, the lower the cognitive function score, and the more significant the rate of cognitive impairment occurrence and development.

As the pace of society increases and lifestyles change， the incidence and mortality rates of breast cancer continue to rise. Targeted therapies are now promising in the treatment of breast cancer， and a variety of protein targets have been identified to play an important role in the development of breast cancer. Among them， signal transducer and activator of transcription （STAT） proteins constitute a crucial group that serves as important targets for transducing cellular transcriptional information， which can regulate downstream cell proliferation， apoptosis， cell migration， invasion， angiogenic factors， etc. and then affect the progression of breast cancer. The STAT family is closely associated with the inflammatory response to tumors and plays a landmark role in tumor development as well as in diagnosis and prognosis. The "inflammation-cancer" transformation refers to the process in which the inflammatory microenvironment caused by uncontrolled inflammation promotes normal cells to become cancerous. According to the theory of Chinese medicine， "heat toxicity" in "cancer toxicity" corresponds to inflammation， which is closely related to tumor development. As a major link associated with the inflammatory response， the STAT family has a promising role in the development and treatment of a variety of tumors， but its relevance to breast cancer remains inadequately explored. Chinese medicine has been shown to have good efficacy in the prevention and treatment of breast cancer， and some current studies have shown that the active ingredients and compounds of Chinese medicine have certain intervention effects on breast cancer-related STAT proteins， but there has not been a systematic review. In order to better sort out and summarize the studies on the effects of Chinese herbal medicines based on the STAT family interventions in breast cancer， this paper reviewed the studies on Chinese herbal medicines acting on the STAT family in recent years， aiming to provide new ideas for clinical applications in breast cancer and to provide thoughts for the development of STAT protein-based drugs.

Objective To investigate the clinical phenotype,sperm characteristics,genetic etiology and the outcomes of assisted repro-ductive technology of 2 minority patients(P1 Hui and P2 Uyghur)with globozoospermia.Methods The clinical data and various pa-rameters of semen examination in the 2 minority patients with globozoospermia were analyzed.The ultrastructure of their sperms was ob-served,and the genetic etiology of the patients was analyzed by whole exome sequencing(WES)and qPCR.Intracytoplasmic sperm in-jection(ICSI)combined with artificial oocyte activation(AOA)were applied for assisted reproduction thyrapy.The outcomes of assis-ted reproduction in the two couples were observed.Results Homozygous 109681 bp deletion in DPY19L2 gene was found in both the patients.The homozygous deletion of DPY19L2 gene in P2 patient came from his inbred parents.Low sperm motility and high sperm DNA fragmentation rate were observed in the P1 patient,the and the rate of round-headed sperm was 100％in morphology.The ab-sence of sperm acrosome and ultrastructural defects of plasma membrane,mitochondria and microtubules were found under the electron microscope.In the P2 patient,sperm motility and sperm DNA fragmentation rate patient were normal,and the sperm morphology was 100％round-headed sperm.Under the electron microscope,the main defects of sperm were small and round head with acrosomal ab-sence,structural damage,but the ultrastructural defects of organelles were rare,such as plasma membrane,mitochondria and microtu-bules.Both couples of the two patients received ICSI+AOA for assisted pregnancy,and the ICSI fertilization rate was 62.5％for P1 pa-tient and 75％for P2 patient.Both the patients successfully obtained clinical pregnancy.Conclusion The abnormal DPY19L2 gene is the main genetic cause in the globozoospermia patients with different ethnic backgrounds.Both structural damage and ultrastructural de-fects of organelles such as plasma membrane,mitochondrial and microtubule damage could be found in globozoospermia.ICSI combined with AOA should be an effective assisted reproductive thyrapy strategy for the patients with globozoospermia.

BACKGROUND:As we age,the function of various systems in the human body gradually decreases and the telomeres,located at the ends of chromosomes,consequently shorten,leading to the development and progression of various chronic age-related diseases.As a cost-effective intervention,scientific exercise has been shown to reduce the rate of telomere wear,maintain telomere length,delay the aging process and reduce the probability of disease.At the same time,better health level is important for healthy aging. OBJECTIVE:To sort out the role of telomeres in health promotion by analyzing telomere and physical fitness,the common adverse factors of telomere length shortening and chronic disease occurrence,and the influence of telomere length on the regulation of the occurrence and development of common chronic diseases such as cardiovascular disease,cancer,diabetes,obesity and mental disease,as well as to summarize the possible regulatory mechanism of exercise regulating telomere length,and to explore the role of telomere in the regulation of exercise on the above-mentioned chronic diseases for the purpose of health promotion. METHODS:The search terms of"exercise,telomere,aerobic capacity,muscle strength,aging"in Chinese and English were used to search the relevant literatures in CNKI and PubMed,respectively.A total of 108 articles were included for final review. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:In terms of physical fitness and health promotion,there is a strong correlation between the maximum aerobic exercise capacity and muscle strength of the human body and telomere length.Long-term physical exercise can enhance the level of physical fitness to maintain telomere length and promote the heath of the human body.In terms of chronic diseases and health promotion,abnormal telomere length can promote the occurrence of some chronic diseases such as cardiovascular diseases,cancer,diabetes,obesity,and mental diseases,and the factors that accelerate the shortening of telomere length,such as oxidative stress,inflammation,and telomerase activity,also have adverse effects on the development of these diseases.The regulation of telomere length by exercise can reduce the levels of oxidative stress and inflammation,improve the activity of telomerase and enhance the stability of telomere protein complex.Through these regulatory mechanisms,exercise slows the rate of telomere wear and maintains consistent telomere length,thereby reducing the risk of chronic diseases associated with abnormal telomere length,such as cardiovascular disease,cancer,diabetes,obesity,and mental diseases.Therefore,telomeres play a positive role when exercise is used to regulate related diseases and promote human health.
