Objective:To investigate the effects of psychosocial factors on early puberty and its sex specific differences.Methods:Bengbu Yuhui Longitudinal Study of Children Development Cohort, consisting of 1 162 students in grades 1-3 (524 girls) and their parents, was established in April 2021 in Bengbu, Anhui Province. The parents were surveyed by questionnaire to collect the information about their children's 56 items of psychosocial factor exposures, including 5 dimensions: major life events, early life adversity, interpersonal/relational conflict, family economic status and daily life troubles. Pubertal growth and physical examinations were conducted by trained professionals at baseline, the 1 st (May 2022), 2 nd (October 2022), 3 rd (May 2023), and 4 th (October 2023) follow-up surveys. In this study, the pubertal development status data were from the 4 th follow-up examination. Fianally, the valid data on pubertal development of 1 105 children were obtained, including the data from 510 girls (46.15%). Multinomial logistic regression model was used to analyze the association between psychosocial factors and early puberty, and the final predictors of early puberty were explored by using four models [least absolute shrinkage and selection operator (LASSO), multiple logistic regression, ridge regression, and Bayesian]. Results:The detection rates of early puberty in boys and girls were 13.60% and 16.30%, respectively. The median of intra-group absolute correlation of psychosocial factor exposure (0.042-0.066) was generally higher than that of inter-group among girls (0.031-0.059), while no similar diference was found among boys. LASSO model showed that moving house, being raised by someone other than parents, sexual abuse, peer conflict, high monthly household income, and high exposure to electronics on school days were predictors of early puberty in girls, while moving house and high monthly household income were the predictors of early puberty in girls in all four models (LASSO, multiple logistic regression, ridge regression, and Bayesian). Among boys, only a transient loss from family was a predictor of early puberty.Conclusion:Early puberty in children can be predicted by psychosocial factors, and there are gender-specific differences.

Objective To investigate the characteristics and correlation between peak oxygen uptake(VO?peak)and heart rate recov-ery(HRR)during cardiopulmonary exercise test(CPET)in patients with coronary borderline lesions.Methods From January,2022 to January,2024,183 patients with coronary borderline lesions in Beijing Bo'ai Hospital were divided into low cardiorespiratory fitness(LCF)group(n=61),moderate cardiorespiratory fitness(MCF)group(n=62)and high cardiorespiratory fitness(HCF)group(n=60)based on VO?peak.Their characteristics and CPET parameters including VO?peak,exercise-phase heart rate(HR1,HR2,HR3),and post-exercise heart rate recovery(HRR1,HRR2,HRR3)were analyzed.Results After adjusting for age and body mass index,analysis of covariance showed that the peak heart rate,HR1,HR2 and HR3 were the lowest in LCF group(F>5.388,P<0.01).Repeated-measures analysis of variance showed that the inter-and intra-group effects were significant in HRR(F>14.561,P<0.001).Partial correlation analy-sis showed that VO?peak positively correlated with HRR1(r=0.404,P<0.001),HRR2(r=0.379,P<0.001)and HRR3(r=0.425,P<0.001).Conclusion In patients with coronary artery borderline lesions,VO?peak demonstrated a significant inverse correlation with HRR,the lower the VO?peak,the more delays of HRR.

Objective:To investigate the therapeutic effectiveness and safety of "U shape" en bloc Thulium fiber laser enucleation and resection of the prostate (ThuLERP) technique.Methods:The clinical data of 105 benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH) patients treated by a single surgeon in Peking University First Hospital from January to October 2022 were retrospectively reviewed. Among them, 50 patients underwent "U-shaped" en bloc technique prostate enucleation (UEBT), and 55 patients underwent prostate lobe removal using the lobe technique (LT). There were no significant differences between UEBT and LT groups ( P>0.05) in term of the age[(69.1±6.9)years old vs.( 68.8±9.1)years old], international prostate symptom score(IPSS)[(22.7±1.9)vs.(22.8±2.7)] and maximum flow rate(Q max ) [(9.0±3.7)ml/s vs.(9.3±4.3)ml/s]. The prostate-specific antigen(PSA) of UEBT group was higher than that of LT group[7.52(3.05, 8.76)ng/ml vs.6.78(1.61, 7.45)ng/ml], and the prostate volume of the UEBT group was larger than that of LT group [(103.49±46.19)ml vs.(75.73±30.69) ml, all P<0.05]. In the UEBT group, the apical of prostate was bluntly enucleated with pre-transection urethral mucosa at the apex of prostate technique. Secondly, glands formed grooves at 12 o'clock after vaporization, which served as anatomical marker. At last, the whole lobe which was like "U shape" were resected using laser. In the LT group, glands was divided to three lobe, the middle, the left and the right lobe was bluntly enucleated respectively. Perioperative data, postoperative complications and clinical outcomes were compared between the two groups. Correlation between enucleation efficiency and enucleation weight was analysed using linear regression. Results:There were no significant differences between the UEBT and LT group ( P>0.05) in term of morcellation time[18(9, 34)min vs.16(8, 28)min], resection rate[(0.5±0.1)g/ml vs.(0.5±0.1)g/ml], catheter indwelling duration[(3.8±1.4)d vs.(3.6±1.1)d] and hospitalization stay[(4.1±0.3)d vs.(3.9±0.8)d].The difference between the UEBT group and LT group in operation time[54(42, 100)min vs.80(60, 150)min], enucleated time[37(26, 75)min vs.47(31, 69)min], hemostasis time[4(3, 6)min vs.9(7, 15)min], enucleation efficiency[(1.8±0.5)g/min vs.(1.1±0.4)g/min] and hemoglobin decline[13(9, 22)g/L vs.17(10, 22)g/L]were statistically significant ( P<0.05). In both groups, postoperative IPSS were (6.6±1.7) and (6.2±1.4) respectively, and Q max were(18.9±3.1)ml/s and (16.8±3.8)ml/s respectively, which were significantly different from that before the operation ( P<0.05). However, there was no significant difference between the two groups ( P>0.05). The enucleation efficiency increased with the increase of prostate volume( r=0.791, 0.880 respectively, P<0.05).After 2 weeks of follow up the postoperative immediate urinary continence rate of UEBT group and LT group were 10.0%(5/50)and 27.3%(15/55), respectively, and the two groups had statistical differences ( P<0.05). But after 3 months of follow up, there was no urinary continence in the two groups, and incidence of postoperative urethral stricture were 2.0%(1/50) and 5.5%(3/55) respectively in UEBT and LT group, whose difference was not significant( P>0.05). Conclusions:ThuLERP can relieve lower urinary tract symptoms in a comparable way with high efficacy and safety. ThuLERP with the "U-shaped" en bloc technique was statistically superior to the lobe technique in operation time, enucleation time, enucleation efficiency, hemoglobin decline and also avoided stress urinary incontinence at early stage after operation.

ObjectiveTo review the clinical characteristics and capacity of cardiopulmonary exercise test in patients with intermediate coronary stenosis. MethodsFrom January, 2015 to January, 2020, the patients underwent coronary angiography and cardiopulmonary exercise test in Beijing Bo'ai Hospital were divided into intermediate coronary stenosis group (n = 184) and non-coronary heart disease group (n = 73). Symptoms, general information, laboratory and echocardiography information, results of cardiopulmonary exercise test were compared between two groups, and the main cardiovascular events during a year were observed. ResultsThe proportion of male (χ² = 15.857, P < 0.001), smoking history (χ² = 9.067, P = 0.003), hypertension history (χ² = 15.087, P < 0.001) and hyperlipidemia history (χ² = 13.507, P < 0.001) were more, and the level of hemoglobin A1c (Z = 2.431, P = 0.015) and high sensitivity C-reactive protein (Z = 2.108, P = 0.035) were higher in the intermediate coronary stenosis group, while less of them could reach anaerobic threshold (χ² = 10.702, P = 0.001). The heard rate and respiratory exchange rate as anaerobic threshold decreased in the intermediate coronary stenosis group (Z > 2.156, P < 0.05). There was no significant difference in main cardiovascular events between the two groups within a year (P = 1.000). ConclusionCardiopulmonary capacity has been impaired in patients with intermediate coronary stenosis, who need to pay attention to the risk factors such as smoking, diabetes mellitus, hypertension and hyperlipidemia.

Objective: To explore drug resistance of different viral loads, and investigate the relationship between drug resistance and CD4⁺T cell counts in patients with HIV antiretroviral therapy (ART) in China from 2003 to 2015. Methods: Data were extracted from the Chinese National HIVDR Surveillance database from 2003 to 2015. For this study, the data collected were as follows: having received ART for ≥12 months; 18 years or older; demographic characteristics, information of ART, CD4⁺T cell counts, viral load (VL) and HIV drug resistance of a total of 8 362 patients were collected. Multi-variables non-conditional logistic regression model was used to study the relationship between viral load, HIV drug resistance and CD4⁺T cell counts. Results: Participants with age of (41.8±10.5) years were enrolled in this study. Among them, 59.9% (5 009 cases) were men. The percentage of CD4⁺T cell counts <200 cells/μl in the total population was 17.9% (1 496 cases), the highest was in VL ≥1 000 copies/ml with drug resistance, which was 43.0% (397/923) , followed by VL 50-999 copies/ml with drug resistance, which was 31.1% (69/222), and the lowest was in VL 50-999 copies/ml without drug resistance 13.2% (273/2 068). Compared to VL 50-999 copies/ml without drug resistance, VL<50 copies/ml, VL 50-999 with drug resistance, VL≥1 000 copies/ml without drug resistance, and VL ≥1 000 copies/ml with drug resistance, the OR (95%CI) of CD4 <200 cells/μl were 0.9 (0.7-1.0), 3.2 (2.3-4.4), 2.6 (2.1-3.2), and 4.9 (4.0-5.9), respectively. Among 222 patients with VL 50-999 and HIVDR, the most frequent antiretroviral drugs were EFV and NVP, both of which were NNRTI, and whose percentage both were 94.1% (209 cases). The most frequent mutations were M184V/I (NNRTI), and the percentage was 26.1% (58 cases). The second one was K103N (NNRTI), and the percentage was 22.5% (50 cases). The percentage of V32L/E (PI) and V82A (PI) were lower, they were 0.9% (2 cases) and 0.5% (1 case) respectively. Conclusion Decreased CD4⁺T cell counts were associated with HIV drug resistance at low viraemia. In the case of low viral load, the most vulnerable were the NNRTI antiviral drugs such as EFV and NVP.

The in-vivo bioavailability of Qingxintong administrated by intramuscular injection, intravenous injection and gastric infusion was compared. Experimental results showed that Qingxintong was rapidly absorbed and excreted. The half-life time for absorption was 0.05 - 0.07 h and the half-life time for elimination was 0.14 - 0.29 h. The bioavailability of Qingxintong in the dose of 10 mg/kg by intramuscular injection or by intravenous injection was 94.71 %, and was 9.16% in the dose of 60 mg/kg by gastric infusion or in the dose of 10mg/kg by intramuscular injection.
