OBJECTIVE To investigate the incidence and outcomes of vancomycin-associated acute kidney injury （VA-AKI） in critically ill patients， to analyze the independent risk factors for the development of VA-AKI and renal function outcomes in VA-AKI patients， and to evaluate the predictive performance of vancomycin treatment duration for VA-AKI occurrence， so as to provide reference for the rational and safe use of this drug.METHODS Clinical data of critically ill patients who received vancomycin during hospitalization in the intensive care unit of Zhongshan Hospital， Fudan University，from January 2022 to December 2024 were retrospectively collected. Patients were divided into the VA‑AKI group and the non‑AKI group according to the occurrence of VA‑AKI. Multivariate Logistic regression analysis was performed to screen for independent risk factors for VA‑AKI development and renal function outcomes in patients with VA‑AKI. The receiver operating characteristic （ROC） curve was used to analyze the predictive performance of vancomycin treatment duration for VA‑AKI.RESULTS A total of 1 484 patients were enrolled， among whom 287 developed VA‑AKI， with an incidence of 19.3%. The overall median time to onset was 2.5 days after vancomycin administration. Complicated hypertension， cardiac or renal insufficiency， hospital‑acquired sepsis/bacteremia， multiple organ failure， invasive mechanical ventilation during hospitalization， vancomycin treatment duration ≥10 days， and concomitant use of carbapenems or tacrolimus were independent risk factors for VA‑AKI （ P ＜0.05）. Concomitant use of vasopressors was an independent risk factor for renal function outcomes in patients with VA‑AKI （ P ＜0.05）. The area under the ROC curve （AUC） of the model using vancomycin treatment duration of predict the occurrence of VA-AKI was 0.624. At the optimal cut‑off value of 9.7 days， the sensitivity and specificity were 47.4% and 74.9%， respectively.CONCLUSIONS Critically ill patients have a relatively high incidence of VA-AKI， which mostly occurs in the early stage of vancomycin therapy. Patients with underlying cardiac-renal diseases， severe infection， requirement for mechanical ventilation， prolonged vancomycin therapy， and concomitant administration of carbapenems or tacrolimus are at high risk for VA-AKI. Concomitant vasopressor use affects renal function recovery in patients with VA-AKI. The predicted risk of acute kidney injury is higher when vancomycin treatment duration is ≥10 days.

Objective To explore the association between single nucleotide polymorphism(SNP)of Rab37 gene and the age at menarche(AAM).Methods A case-control study design was used to conduct an epidemiologic survey on 2 060 women in a community in Jurong City,Jiangsu Province,and their venous blood samples were collected.ASA chip was used to explore the Rab37 gene genotyping of blood sample DNA to obtain the genotyping results for Rab37 SNPs rs62084865,rs10512597,rs35489971,rs1037170,rs6501732,rs77822106,and rs3178300.Based on menarche time of＜16 years old or≥16 years old,the participants were divided into 2 groups.Linear and logistic regression analyses were used to explore the association between the SNP of Rab37 gene and the age at menarche based on dominant,recessive and allelic models.Results Among the 2 060 healthy women,944 women had normal menstrual periods,while 1 116 women experienced delayed menarche.Linear regression analysis showed that the gene polymorphism of rs3178300 was negatively correlated with the age at menarche in females[recessive model:CC/CT+TT,β=-0.915,95%CI(-1.692,-0.137),P=0.021;allelic model:T/C,β=-0.221,95%CI(-0.410,-0.032),P=0.022].Logistic regression analysis indicated that the gene polymorphism of rs3178300 was significantly associated with the risk of delayed menarche in females[recessive model:CC/CT+TT,OR=0.295,95%CI(0.116,0.751),P=0.010;allelic model:T/C,OR=0.796,95%CI(0.652,0.972),P=0.025].The remaining 6 SNPs showed no significant association with age at menarche.Conclusion The rs3178300 polymorphism of Rab37 gene is significantly associated with delayed menarche in Chinese women.

Objective:To investigate the safety of the tetravalent meningococcal conjugate vaccine (MPCV-ACYW) in combination with the inactivated poliomyelitis (IPV) vaccine and diphtheria-tetanus-acellular pertussis (DTaP) vaccine for infants aged 3-5 months and provide real-world evidence for the immunization strategy of vaccine combination.Methods:From June to October 2023, a total of 600 3-month-old infants were selected and divided into three groups: control group, mono-vaccination group and combined vaccination group. They were simultaneously or individually vaccinated with MPCV-ACYW, IPV and DTaP vaccines at 3, 4, and 5 months of age, respectively. The incidence rate of adverse reactions within 30 days after each dose was observed.Results:All 600 infants completed at least one vaccination and entered the safety data analysis. The age of the control group (100 infants), the mono-vaccination group (250 infants), and the combination group (250 infants) was (101.20±7.88), (102.26±7.94), and (102.35±7.76) days, respectively. The body lengths were (63.00±3.02), (62.55±3.06), and (63.14±4.02) cm, respectively. The body weights were (6.90±0.77), (6.86±0.94), and (6.99±0.95) kg, respectively. Boys accounted for 49%, 50.4%, and 52.4%, respectively, with no statistically significant differences (all P>0.05). The overall incidence rates of adverse reactions in the control group, mono-vaccination group, and combined vaccination group were 4.00%, 2.80%, and 3.20%, respectively, with systemic adverse reaction rates of 3.00%, 2.40%, and 2.00%. The incidence rates of local adverse reactions were 1.00%, 0.40%, and 1.20%, with no statistically significant differences (all P>0.05). Adverse reactions were mainly grade 1, with incidence rates of grade 1 adverse reactions of 3.00%, 2.00%, and 1.60% in the three groups, and incidence rates of grade 2 adverse reactions of 1.00%, 0.80%, and 1.60%, respectively. No grade 3 or 4 serious adverse reactions occurred, and the differences were not statistically significant (all P>0.05). The adverse reaction symptoms of the three groups were mainly systemic reactions, among which fever and diarrhea symptoms were reported in individual cases in each group, with no statistically significant differences in the incidence rate (all P>0.05). The symptoms of adverse reactions were mostly transient and self-relieved, all of which were cured. Conclusion:The combination of MPCV-ACYW and IPV or DTaP vaccines is safe for infants aged 3-5 months.

In response to the current shift in the main content and research focus of life education， which is gradually shifting from the behavioural norms of “health and safety” to thinking about the essence of life and issues of life and death. Drawing on the theoretical resources of the political philosophy of life， it was pointed out that the internalization of “life” has led to the incidence of “burnout” and depression. Faced with the technological rationalism of contemporary society， how to deal with external technological training was the real problem that life education needs to solve. For life education， it was necessary to study how to reemphasize the practical dimension， as well as expand the theme of “health and safety” from simple behavioural norms to ways of dealing with modern society and showcasing life forms.

Objective:To explore the association between spicy food intake and the risk for cardio/cerebrovascular diseases.Methods:Data were collected from the China Kadoorie Biobank project conducted in Pengzhou, Sichuan Province. Using the Cox proportional hazards regression model, we analyzed the associations of the frequency of spicy food intake, spicy level, types of spicy food, and the age when regular intake of spicy food began (intake in 1 day/week), with the risk for cardio/cerebrovascular disease. Furthermore, the associations with the risks for ischemic heart disease (IHD) and cerebrovascular diseases, as well as the risk of ischemic stroke (IS) and hemorrhagic stroke (HS) were analyzed.Results:A total of 54 859 study participants were included in the study, in whom 49 320 had spicy food intake (89.90%). In these participants, 37 680 (68.69%) had spicy food intake in 6-7 days/week, 5 036 (9.18%) had spicy food intake in 1-5 days/week, and 6 604 (12.03%) had spicy food intake once a week; 5 539 (10.10%) had never/almost never had spicy food intake. After adjusting for multiple confounding factors, compared with those who never/almost never had spicy food intake, intake of spicy food was associated with reduced risks for IHD (intake in 6-7 days/week: HR=0.86, 95% CI: 0.78-0.95), cerebrovascular diseases (intake in 6-7 days/week: HR=0.88, 95% CI: 0.81-0.96), and IS (intak in 6-7 days/week: HR=0.85, 95% CI: 0.76-0.95). With the increase of spicy food intake frequency, the risk for cardio/cerebrovascular disease decreased (intake in 1-5 days/week: HR=0.91, 95% CI: 0.85-0.98; intake in 6-7 days/week: HR=0.89, 95% CI: 0.84-0.94) (trend test P<0.001). However, no statistical association was found between spicy food intake and the risk for HS. In terms of spicy level, after adjusting for multiple confounding factors, compared with those who never/almost never had spicy food intake, intake of spicy food was associated with reduced risk for cardio/cerebrovascular disease (moderate: HR=0.86, 95% CI: 0.82-0.90) and cerebrovascular disease (moderate: HR=0.90, 95% CI: 0.84-0.97). With the increase of spicy level, the risk for IHD decreased (moderate: HR=0.86, 95% CI: 0.79-0.93; strong: HR=0.84, 95% CI: 0.74-0.95) (trend test P<0.001). After adjusting for multiple confounding factors, compared with those who never/almost never had spicy food intake, intake of any type of spicy food was associated with reduced risk for cardio/cerebrovascular disease, IHD, and cerebrovascular disease. Regulat intake of spicy food from age 0-10 years was associated with reduced risk for cardio/cerebrovascular disease, IHD, and cerebrovascular disease. Regular intake of spicy food from age 11-20 years reduced the risk for cardio/cerebrovascular disease and IHD. There was no significant association between the regular intake of spicy food from age 21-79 years and the risks for cardio/cerebrovascular disease, IHD and cerebrovascular disease. Conclusion:The intake of spicy food could reduced the risk for cardio/cerebrovascular diseases, IHD, cerebrovascular diseases and IS in residents aged 30-79 years in Sichuan.

Objective:To investigate the effect of physical activity on mortality risk in patients with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) in Sichuan Province.Methods:Based on baseline data from 2004 to 2008 from the China Kadoorie Biobank project site in Pengzhou City, Sichuan Province, a total of 8 501 COPD patients aged 30-79 years were enrolled and followed up for a long period to determine mortality outcomes. Quartiles were used to group physical activity levels. The Cox proportional hazards regression model was used to analyze the effect of physical activity level on mortality outcomes.Results:As of December 31, 2017, the cumulative follow-up of the participants totaled 85 600.58 person-years (mean follow-up duration: 10.07 years). During this period, a total of 2 000 deaths were recorded, yielding a cumulative mortality rate of 23.53%. Among these deaths, 665 were attributed to COPD, corresponding to a cumulative mortality rate of 7.82%; and 1 116 were attributed to cardiovascular and cerebrovascular disease (CVD), corresponding to a cumulative mortality rate of 13.13%. The Cox proportional hazards regression model analysis revealed that, after adjusting for confounding factors, total physical activity was associated with a reduced risk of mortality from COPD, CVD, and all causes in patients with COPD. Compared with the low-level group of total physical activity, the medium-high-level group had the lowest risk of COPD mortality, with an HR of 0.39 (95% CI: 0.30-0.49). The high-level group had the lowest risk of CVD death and all-cause death, with HRs of 0.46 (95% CI: 0.37-0.56) and 0.55 (95% CI: 0.48-0.64), respectively. The lowest risk of COPD death and CVD death was found in the medium-high level of work-based physical activity group, with HRs of 0.36 (95% CI: 0.28-0.46) and 0.43 (95% CI: 0.36-0.51), respectively; the risk of all-cause mortality was lowest in the medium-high and high-level groups, with HRs values of 0.53 (95% CI: 0.46-0.61) and 0.53 (95% CI: 0.45-0.61). The risk of COPD death was lowest in the high-level transportation physical activity group, with an HR of 0.66 (95% CI: 0.53-0.83), and the risk of CVD and all-cause death was lowest in the medium-high level group, with HRs of 0.63 (95% CI: 0.53-0.76) and 0.73 (95% CI: 0.64-0.84), respectively. The risk of COPD death and CVD death was the lowest in the high-level domestic physical activity group, with HRs of 0.66 (95% CI: 0.49-0.89) and 0.76 (95% CI: 0.61-0.95), respectively, and the risk of all-cause death was the lowest in the medium-high level group, with an HR of 0.82 (95% CI: 0.72-0.94). There is no statistical association between leisure physical activity and the risk of death from three types of diseases. Conclusions:Total physical activity, including work-based, transportation-based, and domestic physical activity, reduced the risk of COPD, CVD, and all-cause mortality in patients with COPD in Sichuan Province. The magnitude of mortality risk was influenced by the type and level of physical activity.

The aim of this updated guideline is to provide comprehensive recommendations for the management of gout in patients with common comorbidities, such as chronic kidney disease(CKD), cardiovascular disease(CVD), diabetes, osteoarthritis(OA), and gastrointestinal disorders. This guideline was developed by a multidisciplinary expert panel consisting of specialists in endocrinology, rheumatology, nephrology, cardiology, gastroenterology, and methodology. The development process adhered to standard methodologies, including PICO(population, intervention, comparator, and outcomes) question deconstruction, systematic literature review, the Grading of Recommendations Assessment, Development and Evaluation(GRADE) for evidence and recommendation evaluation, Delphi voting, and expert consensus. The guideline presents 26 evidence-based recommendations addressing 7 clinical questions for patients with hyperuricemia and gout in the context of comorbidities. Key recommendations include the maintenance of strict serum urate targets, particularly for patients with CKD stage≥3, chronic gouty arthritis, and OA, in order to prevent disease progression. In patients with CVD or diabetes, intra-articular triamcinolone is preferred over systemic glucocorticoids. Prioritized anti-inflammatory treatments for patients with CKD, gastrointestinal diseases and OA are recommended. The guideline also introduces emerging therapies, such as interleukin-1 inhibitors and selective urate transport inhibitors, as potential treatment options for refractory cases. The update offers a comprehensive, patient-centered approach to managing gout, particularly in individuals with associated comorbidities. Multidisciplinary collaboration and emerging new treatments and evidence ensure the optimization of the recommendations.

Objective:To investigate the mediating effect of psychological flexibility between recurrence risk perception and health behavior in stroke patients.Methods:From July to December 2024, 233 stroke patients at the First Affiliated Hospital of Zhengzhou University were selected using convenience sampling. Electronic questionnaires were used to collect patients' general information, perception of stroke recurrence risk, health behavior, and psychological flexibility.Results:The scores for recurrence risk perception, psychological flexibility, and health behavior of 233 stroke patients were (39.75±4.39), (47.45±4.19), and (54.04±3.78), respectively. Health behavior were positively correlated with recurrence risk perception ( r=0.495, P<0.01), and negatively correlated with psychological flexibility ( r=-0.367, P<0.01). Psychological flexibility partially mediated the relationship between recurrence risk perception and health behavior, with an effect value of 0.080 and an effect proportion of 17.5% (0.080/0.458) . Conclusions:Recurrence risk perception not only directly predicts health behavior in stroke patients but also indirectly influences their health behavior through psychological flexibility. Healthcare providers should enhance recurrence risk perception among stroke patients and incorporate the improvement of psychological flexibility as part of intervention strategies to improve patients' health behavior.
