ObjectiveTo evaluate the antitumor activity of Periplaneta americana extract（PAE） against human-derived lung adenocarcinoma organoids（LUAD-PDOs） and to elucidate its potential mechanism based on transcriptomics. MethodsFresh tumor and adjacent normal tissues from patients with LUAD were collected to construct LUAD-PDOs and normal lung organoid（Nor-PDOs） models using 3D organoid culture technology. The effective intervention concentration of PAE was determined using the cell counting kit-8（CCK-8） assay. Experimental groups included the model group（LUAD-PDOs）， normal group， model administration group（LUAD-PDOs+PAE）， and normal administration group（Nor-PDOs+PAE）. Hematoxylin-eosin（HE） staining was used to observe the pathological structures of PDOs， immunohistochemistry（IHC） was performed to detect the expressions of the proliferation marker Ki-67 and lung adenocarcinoma differentiation markers cytokeratin-7（CK-7） and Napsin A， TUNEL staining was applied to detect cell apoptosis. RNA sequencing（RNA-Seq） was conducted to identify differentially expressed genes（DEGs）， followed by Gene Ontology（GO）， Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes（KEGG）， and Gene Set Enrichment Analysis（GSEA）， alongside protein-protein interaction（PPI） network analysis to screen core mechanisms. Finally， key targets were validated by integrating external database analysis with immunofluorescence（IF）. ResultsNor-PDOs and LUAD-PDOs that highly recapitulated the pathological characteristics of the primary tissues were successfully established. The CCK-8 assay determined that the effective intervention concentration of PAE was 16 g·L^-1. Morphological observation showed that Nor-PDOs exhibited lumen-forming structures， whereas LUAD-PDOs displayed dense， solid structures. CCK-8 and TUNEL assays revealed that， compared with the model group， PAE intervention inhibited the proliferation of LUAD-PDOs and promoted apoptosis in LUAD cells， while showing no significant effect on the viability of Nor-PDOs. Transcriptomic analysis identified 719 DEGs that were significantly reversed after PAE intervention（347 up-regulated and 372 down-regulated）（P<0.05）. GO enrichment analysis indicated that DEGs in the model administration group were significantly enriched in biological processes related to cell cycle regulation compared to the model group. KEGG pathway analysis revealed that PAE affected pathways related to proliferation and metabolism， including pathways in cancer and the p53 signaling pathway. GSEA further confirmed that PAE significantly enhanced the activity of the p53 signaling pathway（P<0.05）. PPI network analysis indicated that breast cancer type 1 susceptibility protein（BRCA1） and checkpoint kinase 1（CHEK1） were the core down-regulated targets in the p53 pathway. IF verified the high expression of BRCA1 and CHEK1 in LUAD-PDOs and their significant downregulation after PAE intervention（P<0.05）. Furthermore， survival analysis based on The Cancer Genome Atlas（TCGA） database indicated that low expression of BRCA1 and CHEK1 was significantly associated with prolonged overall survival in patients with LUAD（P<0.05）. ConclusionPAE effectively inhibits proliferation of LUAD-PDOs and promotes their apoptosis， its anti-tumor mechanism is potentially associated with the activation of the p53 signaling pathway， with BRCA1 and CHEK1 genes likely serving as key downstream targets for the effects of PAE.

ObjectiveTo review the parameters, effects, mechanisms, potential risks and research status of transcranial direct current stimulation (tDCS) in intervening motor skills among adults. MethodsA systematic search of Web of Science, PubMed, EBSCO and CNKI databases was conducted for studies related to tDCS in intervening motor skills among adults, with publication from inception to October, 2025. Data extraction and scoping review were performed, with literature quality assessed using the Physiotherapy Evidence Database (PEDro) scale. ResultsA total of 38 studies were included, from China, Germany, the United States, the United Kingdom, Brazil, Canada, Italy, Spain, Iran and Ireland, involving 1 087 participants. The subjects were adults, including non-athletes and athletes. The outcomes included the performance of opened motor skills and closed motor skills, such as basketball shooting accuracy and golf putting test scores. Anodal tDCS intervention with a stimulation intensity of 1 mA to 2 mA; a stimulation duration of ten to 25 minutes; and an electrode patch of 35 cm² (3.14 cm² to 9 cm² for high-precision tDCS) improved motor skill performance in both athletes and non-athletes. For opened motor skills, tDCS targeting the primary motor cortex was better; for closed motor skills, tDCS targeting the dorsolateral prefrontal cortex was more effective. ConclusiontDCS may have a certain facilitating effect on the performance of opened and closed motor skills in adults. However, significant heterogeneity exists in the intervention environments, stimulation protocols and experimental designs of existing studies, resulting in ongoing controversy over its efficacy.

Objective:To investigate the application value of multi-parameter ultrasound in the non-invasive assessment of renal fibrosis in patients with chronic kidney disease（CKD）.Methods:From December 2023 to April 2024，77 CKD patients（CKD group）and 30 healthy individuals（control group）from Renmin Hospital of Wuhan University were prospectively collected. The CKD group was further classified into mild（ n = 30），moderate（ n = 25）and severe（ n = 22）groups according to pathological assessment of renal fibrosis. Ultrasound parameters and clinical data of all patients were collected for group comparisons. Ultrasound parameters that showed statistically significant differences in univariate analysis were incorporated into a Logistic regression model to identify independent influencing factors. ROC curve was constructed，and the area under the curve（AUC）was calculated for statistical evaluation. Results:① The moderate and severe groups compared to control group，as well as the severe group compared to the mild and moderate groups，showed increased levels of SCr and BUN，and decreased level of eGFR，with statistically significant differences（all P < 0.05）. The kidney length and renal parenchymal thickness in the moderate group were smaller than those in the control group，while the kidney length，renal parenchymal thickness，and renal cortical thickness in the severe group were smaller than those in the control，mild，and moderate groups，with statistically significant differences among the groups（all P < 0.05）. The Vmax in the severe group was lower than those in the control，mild，and moderate groups，while the RI was higher than those in the control，mild，and moderate groups，with statistically significant differences（all P < 0.05）. ②In superb microvascular imaging，perfusion levels were predominantly grade 5 in the control and mild groups（83.3%，25/30；70.0%，21/30），grade 4 in the moderate group（48.0%，12/25），and grade 3 in the severe group（63.6%，14/22）. No significant differences were observed between the mild and control groups，or between the moderate and severe groups（all P>0.05），significant differences in blood flow perfusion were found between other groups（ P < 0.05）.③Shear wave elastography and super-resolution imaging revealed that mean of Young's modulus（Emean）in renal cortex increased progressively from the mild to the severe group，while microvascular density decreased. Except for Emean，which did not show significant differences between the moderate and severe groups（ P > 0.05），all other parameters showed significant differences between groups（ P < 0.05）. ④ROC curve analysis indicated that differentiating the control group from the mild group using Emean and microvascular density，the AUC was 0.769（95% CI = 0.631 - 0.872， P<0.001），with a sensitivity of 0.821 and specificity of 0.539. For the combined use of Emean，microvascular density，peak inter-arterial velocity，and resistance index for distinguishing mild from moderate-to-severe fibrosis resulted in an AUC of 0.902（95% CI = 0.843 - 0.972，P < 0.001），with a sensitivity of 0.967 and specificity of 0.755. These multi-parameter combined diagnostic approaches outperformed single ultrasound parameters. Conclusions:Multi-parameter ultrasound technology can display multidimensional renal changes in patients with CKD and effectively assess the degree of renal fibrosis. It is expected to become a non-invasive，highly sensitive tool for evaluating renal fibrosis in CKD.

Objective:To identify the risk factors for ascending aortic dilatation and develop a prediction model using LASSO-Logistic regression in patients with normally functioning bicuspid aortic valves（BAV）.Methods:Eight-four adult patients with BAV diagnosed as having normal valve function by transthoracic echocardiography who attended to the General Hospital of Ningxia Medical University between June 2024 and April 2025 were prospectively selected，there were 42 patients with ascending aortic dilatation and 42 patients without dilatation.The patients were divided into a training set（60 cases）and a test set（24 cases）using stratified random sampling at a ratio of 7 to 3 via the R caret package. All subjects underwent transthoracic echocardiography，lipid and plasma matrix metalloproteinases（MMP）and tissue inhibitors（TIMP）levels detection. The inverse probability of treatment weighting（IPTW）method was employed to control for potential confounding factors. LASSO and multifactorial binary Logistic regression was applied to screen the independent risk factors for ascending aortic dilatation of BAV and development a nomogram prediction model. The accuracy，consistency and clinical applicability of the prediction model were evaluated by applying the ROC curve，calibration curve，and decision curve analysis（DCA），respectively.Results:①After adjustment for IPTW，LASSO-Logistic regression analysis identified left ventricular global longitudinal strain（LVGLS）and plasma MMP-2 levels as independent risk factors for ascending aortic dilatation in BAV patients with normal valve function.②The nomogram prediction model constructed based on the above screening features，and the area under the curve（AUC）of ROC for the training set and test set were 0.917 and 0.903，with specificities of 0.867 and 0.917，and sensitivities of 0.933 and 0.916，respectively. ③Calibration curves demonstrated satisfactory alignment，with C-indices of 0.908（95% CI=0.879～0.937）for the training set and 0.903（95% CI=0.874 - 0.932）for the test set. Hosmer-Lemeshow goodness-of-fit tests indicated strong consistency between predicted and observed outcomes，with P-values of 0.138 and 0.750 for the training and test sets，respectively.The DCA curve demonstrated that within a threshold probability range of 0.04 - 0.90 in the test set，the clinical decision-making model provided a higher net benefit rate for patients with BAV. Conclusions:LVGLS absolute value reduction and elevated plasma MMP-2 levels are independent risk factors for predicting ascending aortic dilatation in BAV patients with normal valve function. The prediction model based on LASSO-Logistic regression has good predictive value，providing a scientific basis for clinical decision-making in patients with BAV and aortic diseases.

Objective·To detect immunoglobulin(Ig)expression levels in newly diagnosed multiple myeloma(MM)patients before and after induction therapy,and to explore the clinical significance of Ig expression levels and their dynamic changes in relation to treatment efficacy,infection occurrence,and prognosis.Methods·Clinical data from 142 MM patients treated at the Department of Hematology,The First Affiliated Hospital of Soochow University between August 2018 and September 2020 were analyzed.Baseline Ig expression levels and post-induction changes following bortezomib-lenalidomide-dexamethasone(VRD)regimen were assessed.Immunoparesis was defined as uninvolved Igs below the laboratory lower limit of normal.Patients were stratified by immunoparesis severity(mild,moderate,severe,extremely severe).ANOVA,rank-sum tests,and x2 tests were used to analyze correlations with baseline characteristics.The relationship between the improvement in immunoparesis and the induction efficacy,infection occurrence,and prognosis was analyzed based on the dynamic changes in immunoparesis.Results·Normal Igs were severely reduced in newly diagnosed MM patients.Immunoparesis was present in 128 patients(90.1%),with severe or extremely severe immunoparesis accounting for 76.1%.Patients with extensive immunoparesis(all uninvolved Ig levels below the lower normal limit)were more likely to have severe immunoparesis(P<0.05).There were no statistically significant differences in age,gender,presence of severe renal insufficiency,and high-risk cytogenetics among MM patients with different degrees of immunoparesis(P>0.05),but there were statistically significant differences in MM staging(P=0.008)and typing(P=0.010).Most patients with severe immunoparesis were at stage Ⅱ/Ⅲ based on the Revised International Staging System(R-ISS)and were of the IgG type.At diagnosis,the levels of the involved Ig or light chain were negatively correlated with normal Ig levels(P<0.05).Improvement in immunoparesis after induction therapy was positively correlated with treatment response(P=0.006).The infection rate was high(26.8%),but no significant correlation was found between immunoparesis and infection occurrence(P>0.05).After induction therapy,patients showing improvement in immunoparesis had significantly longer progression-free survival(PFS)(median PFS:not reached vs 38 months,P=0.025),but no significant impact on overall survival(OS)was observed(P=0.450).Conclusion·Immunoparesis is common and severe in newly diagnosed MM patients,with severity correlating with disease stage and subtype.VRD therapy can partially reverse immunoparesis,and improvement is positively associated with treatment response and PFS benefit.Infection risk appears unrelated to immunoparesis severity and warrants comprehensive prevention strategies.Humoral immune deficiency may serve as a prognostic indicator in MM,but its impact on OS requires further investigation.
