OBJECTIVE To provide reference for medical institutions to establish the record management mode and review rules of off-label use of 5-aminolevulinic acid （ALA） in photodynamic therapy based on the level of evidence. METHODS All ALA-containing outpatient prescriptions in the rational drug use system in our hospital from January 1， 2024 to December 31， 2025 were retrospectively collected. Based on the drug instructions， the current status of off-label use of ALA in photodynamic therapy was identified . The relevant studies in Micromedex， PubMed， CNKI， Wanfang Data and other databases were systematically searched as the relevant evidence-based evidence of ALA off-label use. According to the Off-label Drug Use Filing Standard of the hospital，the evidence-based evaluation method was used to evaluate the evidence-based evidence of ALA off-label use and carry out hierarchical management. RESULTS A total of 1 803 effective prescriptions were included， of which 676 （37.49%） were off-label use， distributed in the dermatology department （564 prescriptions，83.43%） and the plastic surgery department （112 prescriptions，16.57%）. All 676 prescriptions were off-indications medication， involving ten types of skin diseases， primarily including moderate to severe acne （39.94%）， skin warts （25.44%）， Bowen’s disease （11.98%）， and others. According to evidence-based evidence，off-label uses such as moderate to severe acne， actinic keratosis， and Bowen’s disease were managed according to the evidence categoryⅠ orⅡ.The uses of extramammary Paget’s disease and rosacea were managed according to the evidence category Ⅲ.The uses of lichen sclerosus and keloids were managed according to the evidence category Ⅳ.The results of evidence-based evaluation showed that 92.01% of off-label use in our hospital had high-level evidence-based support （ evidence category was gradeⅠ-Ⅱ）. CONCLUSIONS Off-label uses supported by high-level evidence， such as moderate to severe acne， skin warts， and Bowen’s disease， can be managed under filing category Ⅰ or Ⅱ. For the use of lichen sclerosus and keloids， evidence-based evidence is insufficient and should be strictly restricted.The vast majority of ALA off-label use in our hospital has sufficient evidence-based basis.

Objective To investigate the common molecular features of immunothrombosis, thus enhancing the comprehension of thrombosis triggered by immune and inflammatory responses and offering crucial insights for identifying potential diagnostic and therapeutic targets. Methods Differential gene expression analysis and functional enrichment analysis were conducted on datasets of systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) and venous thromboembolism (VTE). The intersection of differentially expressed genes in SLE and VTE with those of neutrophil extracellular traps (NET) yielded cross-talk genes (CG) for SLE-NET and VTE-NET interaction. Further analysis included functional enrichment and protein-protein interaction (PPI) network assessments of these CG to identify hub genes. Venn diagrams and receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve analysis were employed to pinpoint the most effective shared diagnostic CG, which were validated using a graft-versus-host disease (GVHD) dataset. Results Differential expression genes in SLE and VTE were associated with distinct biological processes, whereas SLE-NET-CG and VTE-NET-CG were implicated in pathways related to leukocyte migration, inflammatory response, and immune response. Through PPI network analysis, several hub genes were identified, with matrix metalloproteinase 9 (MMP9) and S100 calcium-binding protein A12 (S100A12) emerging as the best shared diagnostic CG for SLE (AUC: 0.936 and 0.832) and VTE (AUC: 0.719 and 0.759). Notably, MMP9 exhibited good diagnostic performance in the GVHD dataset (AUC: 0.696). Conclusion This study unveils the common molecular features of SLE, VTE, and NET, emphasizing MMP9 and S100A12 as the optimal shared diagnostic CG, thus providing valuable evidence for the diagnosis and therapeutic strategies related to immunothrombosis. Additionally, the expression of MMP9 in GVHD highlights its critical role in the risk of VTE associated with immune system disorders.

Objective:By systematically evaluate the implementation of GBZ 2.1, so as to provide technical basis for the future revisions of this standard.Methods:From May to October 2023, Based on the pre survey questionnaire, the semi-structured interview method was used to interviews with experts from CDC, Occupational disease prevention and control hospital institutes, employers, occupational hygiene technical service intermediaries and universities, and the inductive method was used to extract the topics and relevant suggestions.Results:Generally, GBZ 2.1 is scientific, practical, progressiveness and operable. There are still some issues such as OELs overlapping and the correspondence between Chinese and English names. The outstanding problem is the coordination with other standard contents.Conclusion:The technical indicators in GBZ 2.1 could adapt to the needs of current practical work. The coordination between standards needs to be clarified, and the new recommended content needs further promotion and exploration on how to implement it.

Objective To investigate the effect and potential mechanism of rat mesenchymal stem cells(MSC)on D-galactose-induced brain-tissue aging.Methods A rat brain-aging model was established by injecting D-galactose,and rats in the treatment group received MSC injections via the tail vein.Superoxide dismutase(SOD)activity and malondialdehyde(MDA)levels were assessed in rat brain tissue at the end of the experiment,and pathological changes in brain tissue were observed by hematoxylin-eosin(HE)staining.Expression levels of the inflammatory factors interleukin(IL)-1 and IL-6,the pathway proteins brain-derived neurotrophic factor(BDNF)-tropomyosin receptor kinase B(TrkB),the negative growth regulators p53 and p16,as well as vascular endothelial growth factor(VEGF)and basic fibroblast growth factor(bFGF)were observed by polymerase chain reaction(PCR)and Western Blot.Results Brain levels of SOD activity were significantly increased and MDA levels were significantly decreased in rats in the modle group compared with the treatment group(P＜0.05).The pathological state of the cerebral cortex and hippocampus were improved and the number of neurons and nucleus pulposus ratio in the brain were increased in the treatment group,as shown by HE staining.Expression levels of IL-1,IL-6,p53,and p16 were significantly decreased,while BDNF,TrkB,VEGF,and bFGF were significantly increased in the treatment group compared with the model group,as shown by PCR and Western Blot(P＜0.05).Conclusions These result suggest that MSCs potentially mitigate D-galactose-induced cerebral senescence by concurrently modulating the BDNF-TrkB axis to attenuate oxidative/inflammatory damage,while enhancing the secretion of vasculotrophic(VEGF)and neurotrophic(bFGF)factors for neuronal maintenance.

BACKGROUND:Currently,different methods of model establishment have been derived from different injury modes of spinal cord injury.Traditional physical injury modeling methods have their own advantages and disadvantages,and there is a lack of more effective and stable animal models of spinal cord injury. OBJECTIVE:To establish a reproducible,controllable,trauma-free,low-mortality,more stable,widely applicable,and short-term postoperative care rat model of spinal cord injury. METHODS:Forty Sprague-Dawley rats with similar body mass and ages were randomly divided into a control group and an improved group,with 20 rats in each group.Animal models of spinal cord injury in the control group were constructed using a clip model method,while the improved group used a modified ligation method based on the compression method to make the spinal cord injury models using suture ligation based on fenestration.Postoperative comparisons were made between the two groups,assessing urination behavior,hematuria,pyuria(infection rate),mortality,scoliosis rate and Basso-Beattie-Bresnahan locomotor rating scale scores at 1,3,5,and 7 days after modeling. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:Compared with the conventional modeling method,the modified ligation method based on the compression method resulted in faster recovery of urination behavior,lower hematuria rate,lower infection rate,lower mortality rate,lower scoliosis rate,and more concentrated and stable Basso-Beattie-Bresnahan scores(all below 2 points within 1 week).This proves that the modified ligation method based on compression is more suitable for the establishment of spinal cord injury models in rats.

In recent years,the incidence rate of type 1 diabetes is on the rise.The causes of the disease are extremely complex,and the pathogenesis has not yet been fully clarified.Different types of studies have confirmed that the occurrence and evolution of type 1 diabetes is a typical process of polygene,multifactor,multi-stage and multi-channel,which is considered to be caused by the combined effect of genetic and environ-mental factors.At present,it is believed that environmental factors are related to the interaction of infection factors,diet factors,early exposure events,intestinal flora,immune factors,other factors and genetic factors.This article reviews the research on environmental factors of type 1 diabetes in recent years.

Objective To analyze the clinical characteristics of renal cell carcinoma patients with extracapsular segmental vein tumor thrombus during partial nephrectomy and to explore the clinical significance,thereby contributing to an advanced comprehension of the pathogenesis of cancer thrombus in renal cell carcinoma.Methods A retrospective analysis was conducted on the clinical data of 209 renal cell carcinoma patients(162 with T1a stage,47 with T1b stage)who underwent partial nephrectomy in our hospital during Sep.2023 and Jul.2025.Among them,8 patients with extracapsular segmental vein tumor thrombus were identified,and the clinical and pathological characteristics were analyzed.Results Among the 8 cases of extracapsular segmental vein tumor thrombus,1 was in T1a stage and 7 were in T1b stage.Preoperativc CT revealed roundish,solid renal masses with heterogeneous density on non-contrast scans,significant enhancement on contrast-enhanced scans,and markedly weaker enhancement in the renal parenchymal phase compared to normal renal tissue.The average tumor diameter was(4.9±0.2)cm,with clear boundaries and no evidence of vascular invasion.Postoperative pathology confirmed clear cell carcinoma in all cases,with International Society of Urological Pathology(ISUP)grades ranging from Ⅰ to Ⅳ,and all surgical margins were negative.After surgery,5 patients received adjuvant immunotherapy.In a median follow-up of 10.3(3.8-22.8)months,no tumor recurrence or metastasis was observed.Conclusion Renal cell carcinoma has a high propensity of vascular invasion,and even clinically staged T1 tumors may develop extracapsular segmental vein tumor thrombus.This finding is significant for clinical prognosis.

Objective:To explore the relationships between physical activity and cognitive impairment in older adults aged ≥65 years in longevity areas in China.Methods:A total of 6 081 older adults aged ≥65 years from the Healthy Ageing and Biomarkers Cohort Study in China in 2021 were included in this study. Information about their demographic characteristics, lifestyles, and chronic disease histories were collected, the intensity of physical activity was evaluated by using Physical Activity Scale for the Elderly, and the cognitive function was evaluated by using Mini-Mental State Examination Scale (Chinese version). Multifactorial logistic regression model was used to analyze the associations between different levels and types of physical activity and cognitive impairment in older adults.Results:In the 6 081 older adults, 1 829 (30.1%) had cognitive impairment. After adjusting for confounders, older adults with T2 and T3 levels of physical activity had lower risks for cognitive impairment compared with those with T1 levels of physical activity, with ORs of 0.47 (95% CI: 0.40-0.55) and 0.22 (95% CI: 0.18-0.28). The results of different types of physical activities showed that the ORs in leisure activity T2 and T3 groups were 0.52 (95% CI: 0.44-0.63) and 0.49 (95% CI: 0.41-0.58), and the ORs in housework activity T2 and T3 groups were 0.36 (95% CI: 0.30-0.42) and 0.19 (95% CI: 0.16-0.24). There was no significant association between work-related activity and cognitive impairment. Conclusion:There is a negative association between the intensity level of physical activity and cognitive impairment, and active leisure and household activities might reduce the risk for cognitive impairment.

Objective:To investigate the effects and mechanisms of cyclic adenosine monophosphate (cAMP) on cisplatin-induced acute kidney injury (AKI).Methods:GSE227970 dataset derived from human renal tubular epithelial cells (HK-2 cells) in the GEO database was downloaded, and Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes and Gene Ontology analysis were performed in normal and cisplatin-damaged cells. Eighteen 8-week-old male C57BL/6J mice with body weight of (22±2) g were randomly divided into normal group, cisplatin group and cAMP group according to random number table method, with 6 mice in each group. cAMP group was intraperitoneally injected with 30 mg/kg glumine cyclic adenosine monophosphate, while normal group and cisplatin group were intraperitoneally injected with the same volume of 0.9% sodium chloride solution for 10 consecutive days. The cisplatin and cAMP groups were intraperitoneally injected with 20 mg/kg cisplatin once on the 8th day. The body weight and kidney weight of mice were weighed, and kidney weight to body weight ratio was calculated. The blood urea nitrogen (BUN) and serum creatinine (Scr) in mice were detected. HE staining was used to evaluate the degree of renal injury. Western blotting was used to detect the protein expression of AMP-activated protein kinase (AMPK)/acetyl-CoA carboxylase (ACC) signaling pathway in renal tissues. In vitro experiments, HK-2 cells were set up in normal group, cisplatin group, cAMP group and cAMP+AMPK inhibitor group. Immunofluorescence was used to detect the protein expression of phosphorylated (p)-AMPK in HK-2 cells. Adenosine triphosphate content and ratio of NAD + to NADH in cells were detected. Flow cytometry was used to detect cell apoptosis. Results:Biological signal analysis showed that axon guidance, Ras-related protein 1 signaling pathway and cAMP signaling pathway were significantly changed in cisplatin group. The body weight, kidney weight and kidney weight/body weight ratio in cisplatin group were significantly lower than those in normal group (all P<0.05). However, after cAMP treatment, kidney weight was significantly higher compared with cisplatin group ( P<0.05), and body weight and kidney weight/body weight ratio also increased, but the differences were not statistically significant (both P>0.05). BUN, Scr and renal tubular injury score in cisplatin group were significantly higher than those in normal group (all P<0.05). After cAMP treatment, BUN, Scr and renal tubular injury score were significantly lower than those in cisplatin group (all P<0.05). Western blotting results showed that cAMP treatment could significantly increase the decreased AMPK/ACC signaling pathway protein in the renal tissues of cisplatin-induced mice (all P<0.05). In vitro experiments, immunofluorescence detection showed that the expression of p-AMPK protein in cisplatin-induced HK-2 cells decreased, and the addition of cAMP increased the expression of p-AMPK protein in cisplatin-induced HK-2 cells (all P<0.05). cAMP treatment could alleviate cisplatin-induced injury in HK-2 cells, restore the reduction of adenosine triphosphate content and NAD +/NADH ratio, and reduce the apoptosis induced by cisplatin (all P<0.05), while AMPK inhibitor could eliminate the protective effect of cAMP on cisplatin-induced injury in HK-2 cells. Conclusion:cAMP can play a protective role in renal injury caused by cisplatin, and its mechanism may be related to activation of AMPK/ACC signaling pathway.
