ObjectiveTo investigate the value of predictive models established based on machine learning methods in predicting the risk of metabolic associated fatty liver disease （MAFLD）， and to analyze its key risk factors. MethodsA retrospective analysis was performed for the 50 variables of 2 168 healthy individuals who underwent physical examination in Department of Health Assessment， Xiyuan Hospital， China Academy of Chinese Medical Sciences， from January 2021 to December 2024， including body composition， past history， and laboratory tests， and according to whether they were diagnosed with MAFLD or not， they were divided into MAFLD group with 265 individuals and non-MAFLD group with 1 903 individuals. The Mann-Whitney U test was used for comparison of continuous data between two groups， and the chi-square test was used for comparison of categorical data between two groups. Randomly split the research data into a training set and a validation set in a 70% to 30% ratio. Predictive factors were screened from the training set data using univariate analysis， LASSO regression， and multivariate Logistic regression analysis. Predictive models were then constructed using seven machine learning methods： Logistic regression， decision tree， random forest （RF）， eXtreme gradient boosting， light gradient boosting machine， support vector machine， and artificial neural network. Model performance was evaluated by plotting receiver operating characteristic curve for the validation set and calculating the area under the curve （AUC）， sensitivity， specificity， and Youden index for each model. Furthermore， the SHapley Additive exPlanation （SHAP） method was used to analyze the contribution of variables in the optimal model. ResultsThe prevalence rate of MAFLD among the 2 168 subjects was 12.22% （265/2 168）. Smoking， diastolic blood pressure， phase angle， visceral fat area， muscle fat ratio， waist-to-hip ratio， aspartate aminotransferase， non-HDL-C/HDL-C ratio， triglyceride-glucose index， and gallstones were independent risk factors for MAFLD （all P<0.05）. The seven predictive models of support vector machine， eXtreme gradient boosting， decision tree， light gradient boosting machine， artificial neural network， RF， and Logistic regression had an AUC of 0.738， 0.754， 0.757， 0.786， 0.795， 0.796， and 0.815， respectively， in the validation set， among which the RF model had the best discriminatory ability （AUC=0.796， 95% confidence interval： 0.754 — 0.839）， with a sensitivity of 81.01%， a specificity of 63.16%， and a Youden index of 44.17%. The SHAP analysis showed that visceral fat area， waist-to-hip ratio， and diastolic blood pressure were the top three predictive factors in terms of importance. ConclusionThe RF model， constructed based on body composition and clinical indicators， has a good performance in predicting the risk of MAFLD， and its interpretability can help to identify high-risk individuals in the early stage in clinical practice.

Objective: To investigate the impact of milk and egg supplementation on body composition and bone mineral density of rural primary school students in Yunnan Province, so as to provide a reference for developing targeted nutritional intervention strategies. Methods: In December 2023, a cluster sampling method was adopted to select students from grades one to three in four primary schools each from Jinggu and Shidian countys of Yunnan Province, as the intervention group (662 students). Additionally, two boarding primary schools were selected from each county based on the principle of matching scale and student numbers as the control group (455 students). Starting from April 2023, the intervention group received 200 mL milk and 50 g eggs during the break on school days for 8 months, while the control group maintained their usual diet behavior. Body composition was measured by using bioelectrical impedance analysis, and distal radial bone mineral density was assessed via dual energy X-ray absorptiometry in April and December 2023. The intervention effects were analyzed by using a difference in-differences approach. Results: The final measurements of body fat percentage, skeletal muscle mass and fat free mass of the intervention group and the control group of primary school students were significantly higher than the baseline values, and the net effect of milk and egg intervention on these body composition indicators was not statistically significant ( P >0.05, both before and after adjustment). In contrast, bone mineral density increased significantly by 0.02 g/cm 2 in the intervention group. The net intervention effect on bone mineral density was statistically significant ( β=0.02, 95%CI =0.00-0.04), and remained significant after model adjustment ( β=0.02, 95%CI =0.00-0.04) (both P < 0.05). Subgroup analysis showed statistically significant effects of the intervention among girls ( β=0.02, 95%CI =0.00-0.04), day students ( β=0.04, 95%CI =0.01-0.07), and students with normal nutritional status ( β=0.02, 95%CI =0.00-0.04) (all P <0.05). No significant effect of milk and egg supplementation was observed on body composition indicators (all P <0.05). Conclusions Milk and egg supplementation can improve bone mineral density among rural primary school students in Yunnan Province. It is recommended that rural school aged children should increase intake of milk and eggs to support growth and development.

Aim To investigate the effect of ACSL4 on the malignant biological behavior of esophageal cancer cells and gefitinib resistance by regulating FASN,and to explore the related mechanism.Methods Thirty-five fresh esophageal cancer tissues and adjacent nor-mal tissues,and 30 esophageal cancer tissues with ge-fitinib resistance were collected.The expressions of ACSL4 and FASN were detected by qRT-PCR and im-munohistochemistry.The expression levels of ACSL4 and FASN in human normal esophageal cells HET-1 A,esophageal cancer cell lines ECA109,EC9706,TE-1 and TE-1/GR were detected by qRT-PCR.Cells in each group were constructed by liposome transfection technique,and the drug resistance and proliferation a-bility of cells were detected by cloning and CCK-8 as-say,cell apoptosis was detected by flow cytometry,cell invasion ability was detected by Transwell,and EMT pathway protein expression was detected by Western blot.Results Compared with adjacent normal tis-sues,the expression of ACSL4 and FASN genes in cancer tissues increased,and there was a positive corre-lation.The expression of ACSL4 significantly increased in ECA109,EC9706 and TE-1 cells compared with HET-1 A cells.With the increase of gefitinib concen-tration,the expression of ACSL4 in TE-1 cells gradually increased,and the expression of ACSL4 in TE-1/GR cells was higher than that of TE-1.Compared with the control group and the si-NC group,the cell proliferation and invasion ability of si-ACSL4 group decreased,the number of apoptosis increased,the expression of E-Cadherin increased,and the expression of N-Cadherin,Vimentin and β-catenin decreased.The response ex-periment showed that compared with the si-ACSL4 group and the si-ACSL4+oe-NC group,the cells in the si-ACSL4+oe-FASN group increased drug resistance,increased proliferation and invasion ability,decreased apoptosis number and decreased expression of E-Cad-herin.The expressions of N-Cadherin,Vimentin and β-catenin increased.Conclusions By down-regulating the expression of FASN,ACSL4 reverses the resistance of esophageal cancer TE-1/GR cells to gefitinib and in-hibits the proliferation,invasion and accelerates apopto-sis of TE-1/GR cells,which may be related to the regu-lation of EMT signaling pathway.

Apolipoprotein D(APOD)is a protein that is widely present in animal tissues and is in-volved in the reproductive regulation of the body.In order to investigate the expression regularity of APOD in bactrian camel epididymis and its regulation effect on sperm maturation,this study took the epididymis of bactrian camel during estrus and anestrus as materials,and first cloned the complete sequence of APOD coding sequence(CDS)region.The physicochemical properties of AP-OD were analyzed by ProParam,SOPMA,SWISS-MODEL and MEGA7.0 software.Meanwhile,the expression and distribution of APOD in epididymis were detected by qRT-PCR,Western blot and IHC.The cloning results showed that:the length of the CDS region of APOD gene was 624 bp,encoding 207 amino acids.The APOD sequence of Bactrian camel was highly conserved with the nucleotide and amino acid sequence of alpaca,and the homology of APOD sequence with elk was the lowest.The results of qRT-PCR showed that the mRNA levels of APOD in the head,body and tail of epididymis in estrus were significantly higher than those in estrus(P＜0.01).Western blot results showed that the APOD protein expression and mRNA expression trend was similar in the head and body of the epididymis during anestrus,but the APOD expression level in the tail of the epididymis during anestrus was opposite to the mRNA expression level(P＜0.05).The results of H&E and IHC showed that there were significant differences in epididymal tissue between estrus and anestrus.In addition,APOD showed positive reactions in epididymal epithelial cells,smooth muscle cells,sperm and connective tissue to varying degrees,suggesting that APOD may be in-volved in the maturation of sperm during estrus and anestrus,providing evidence for further explo-ring the regulatory mechanism of APOD's involvement in seasonal estrus.

This study was aimed at establishing a method of ultra-fast quantitative PCR for Brucella detection.We used an exogenous recombinant plasmid as the internal reference and targeted the T4SS secretion system,an important Brucella viru-lence factor,to design specific primers and probes.The sensitivity,specificity,and repeatability of this method were evaluated,and a standard curve was constructed.The coincidence rate of detection findings with this method versus quantitative PCR was determined.This method markedly decreased the detection time to only 10 minutes.The standard curve demonstrated a good linear relationship(Y=-3.410 7x+38.357,R2=0.998 5)with a low minimum detection limit of 10 copies/μL.The method exhibited good specificity and did not specifically amplify several common clinical bacteria other than Brucella.The de-tection of three concentrations of positive plasmids yielded coefficients of variation(CVs)of 0.20％to 0.91％,thus demonstra-ting the method's excellent repeatability.Furthermore,140 clinical samples were analyzed concurrently with the fluorescence PCR method,which yielded a 100％compliance rate and consistent results.Our findings indicated that the Brucella ultra-fast quantitative PCR was ultrafast;had high sensitivity,high specificity,and good specificity;and can be used for the clinical de-tection of Brucella and emergency investigation of epidemics.Therefore,this method is valuable for the early diagnosis of Bru-cella.

Objective:To screen out the disinfection procedure and disinfectant suitable for the actual production of specific pathogen free(SPF)chicken embryo eggs,so as to ensure the disinfection effect of specific pathogen free(SPF)chicken embryo eggs in vaccine production.Methods:This study compares the microbial counting methods of soaking,swabbing with cotton swabs and pouring after thin-film filtration for SPF chicken embryo eggs in a GMP production workshop,and selects the most suitable method for SPF chicken embryo egg microbial counting.Experi-mental groups A,B,and C use self-prepared concentrations of 1∶50 sporicidal agent dilution solution,1∶128 alka-line phenol salt dilution solution,and ready-to-use compound quaternary ammonium disinfectant(sterile),respec-tively,and follow the actual disinfection procedures in the workshop to disinfect and sample the surfaces of SPF chicken embryo eggs entering different cleanliness grades,while using sterile water instead of disinfectant as the control group.The average bactericidal rate is calculated by recording the number of colonies and monitoring the viability of chicken embryo cells using microbial culture,and the disinfection effect of the three disinfectants on SPF chicken embryo eggs is evaluated.Results:The comparison of the results from the three methods shows that the method of sampling SPF chicken embryo eggs by immersion and then counting the microbial colonies through membrane filtration is superior to the other two methods.The final cleaning rate of the control group,which used sterilized injection water to clean the SPF chicken embryo eggs,was 91.67％to 96.97％,while the final steriliza-tion rate of the experimental group,which used the above three disinfectants to disinfect the SPF chicken embryo eggs,was 100.00％.By comparing the cell counts of the experimental group and the control group,it was found that the live cell density of the control group was(6.03-6.25)× 105 cells·mL-1,and that of the experimental groups A-C was(6.08-6.17)× 105 cells·mL-1,(5.99-6.25)× 105 cells·mL-1,and(5.87-6.21)× 105 cells·mL-1 respectively;the cell viability of the control group was 90.33％to 91.35％,and that of the experi-mental groups A-C was 88.25％to 92.12％,89.45％to 93.59％,and 88.02％to 92.89％respectively.Through statistical analysis,it was found that the P values of all experimental groups compared with the control group were greater than 0.05,indicating no statistically significant difference.Conclusion:By comparing the dis-infection effects,cell density and cell viability of the three disinfectants and comprehensively considering factors such as cost and risk of the three disinfectants,1∶50 sporicide dilution,1∶128 alkaline phenolate dilution and ready-to-use compound quaternary ammonium salt disinfectant(sterile)can all be used for the daily surface disin-fection of SPF chicken embryo eggs in the production workshop.The selection of an appropriate disinfectant should be based on specific application scenarios and requirements.

Objective To investigate the risk factors of overt hepatic encephalopathy(OHE)and death in cirrhotic portal hyperten-sion patients after transjugular intrahepatic portosystemic shunt(TIPS).Methods A retrospective selection was conducted on 40 patients with cirrhotic portal hypertension who underwent TIPS.The follow-up time was 3-41 months,median follow-up time was 20.36 months.The postoperative hepatic encephalopathy(HE)were divided into OHE group(20 cases)and non-OHE group(20 cases)and were further divided into death group(11 cases)and survival group(29 cases)according to their postoperative survival status.Gender,age,preoperative height,weight,total bilirubin,albumin,alanine aminotransferase,aspartate aminotransferase,creatinine,international normalized ratio(INR),prothrombin time,blood glucose,white blood cells,hemoglobin and platelet of all patients were recorded in detail,as well as whether they had diabetes and portal thrombosis before surgery.Child score and model for end-stage liver disease(MELD)score were also performed.The related risk factors of HE and death were obtained by statistical analysis of the two groups.Results The incidence rate of OHE after TIPS was 50%.The analysis revealed that age[hazard ratio(HR)1.115,95%confidence interval(CI)1.007-1.234,P=0.036]and albumin(HR 0.776,95%CI 0.627-0.960,P=0.020)were independent risk factors for OHE after TIPS.The receiver operating characteristic(ROC)curves were drawn with area under the curve(AUC)of 0.733 for age and AUC of 0.784 for albumin.The mortality rate after TIPS was 27.5%,and the analysis indicated that albumin(HR 0.660,95%CI 0.453-0.961,P=0.030),creatinine(HR 1.031,95%CI 1.001-1.062,P=0.044),and aspartate aminotransferase(HR 1.074,95%CI 1.013-1.139,P=0.018)were independent risk factors for death after TIPS.The ROC curves were drawn with AUC of 0.716 for albumin,AUC of 0.762 for creatinine,and AUC of 0.710 for aspartate aminotransferase.Conclusion Postoperative OHE is posi-tively correlated with age and negatively correlated with albumin.Furthermore,the risk of postoperative death is positively correlated with creatinine and aspartate aminotransferase and negatively correlated with albumin.

Dental implantology has developed rapidly for over half a century,since pure titanium(99.7％)dental cylindrical threaded implants were exploited and osseointegration was introduced in 1960s by Prof.Br?nemark.The long term retention rates of 10 years or more are over 95％.However,the biological complications jeopardize the long term effects of dental implant treatment seriously.The prevalence of dental implant biological complications varies greatly among different reports resulting from the disparities on the defini-tions of dental implant biological complications.After analyzing and summarizing the major opinions proposed internationally in recent years,the consensus for the definition of dental implant biological complications has been reached.Generally the dental implant biologi-cal implications can be classified into early stage(before restoration)biological complications and late stage(after restoration)biological complications.The early stage biological complications include acute and chronic infections,pain,soft tissue deficiency,and osseointegration failure,etc.The late stage complications include peri-implant diseases(peri-implant mucositis and peri-implantitis),soft tissue deficiency around implant,implant loosening and dropping off,etc.The various risk factors related to different dental implant biological complications,the strategies of the prevention and treatment for the dental implant biological complications have been discussed comprehensively,and the consensus has been reached.It is aimed to advocate the dentist to pay more attention to the early prevention of the biological implant complications,to promote more researches on the implant biological complications,and to help elevate the level of dental implantology in our country.

Objective:This paper measures and analyzes the supply levels across districts,and explore the equity status and spatial-temporal evolution characteristics of medical resource supply during the 13th Five-Year Plan to the14th Five-Year Plan periods,aiming to provide references for future planning.Methods:Based on the public service population radiation model,the radiation population numbers of each district in Beijing in each year are calculated.Literature-based relevant indicators are selected.The improved CRITIC-entropy weight method is used to measure the supply level of each medical and health institutions.District-level supply levels per 100,000 radiated population were calculated using population density weighting.And the Gini coefficient and Moran's index are used to analyze its spatial and temporal distribution equilibrium.Results:During the 13th Five-Year Plan to the 14th Five-Year Plan periods,the overall medical resource supply level in Beijing showed an upward trend,with a slight decline in core areas and significant growth in urban development new towns.Regional disparities narrowed,and the global Moran's index values indicated positive spatial correlations in supply levels.Conclusion:The decentralization of non-capital functions in Beijing has achieved notable results,though improvements in outer suburbs remain gradual.Future efforts should strengthen cross-regional coordination,integrate innovations like internet-based medical consultations,and promote a more balanced healthcare resource supply structure aligned with public health needs.
