Objective To analyze the situation of rapid antiretroviral therapy (ART) and death of HIV/AIDS in Wuhan from 1994 to 2023, and to provide a scientific basis for further rapid initiation of ART and reduction of mortality rate. Methods According to the case follow-up and treatment database of China AIDS Prevention and Control Information System, data were obtained from all the cases reported from January 1, 1994 to December 31, 2023 with the current address in Wuhan City and the review status of the final review card. The data were analyzed using Kaplan-Meier and Cox proportional hazards models. Results The total mortality rate of HIV/AIDS in Wuhan from 1994 to 2023 was 12.76%. The proportion of receiving antiretroviral therapy within 30 days increased year by year, and the mortality rate decreased year by year. After adjusting for sex, age, occupation, ethnicity, education level, mobile population, history of STD, route of infection, source of sample, and first CD4 value, receiving antiretroviral therapy within 30 days (HR=0.08, 95%CI: 0.07-0.10) was a protective factor for HIV/AIDS mortality. Conclusion Rapid antiretroviral therapy can significantly reduce the risk of HIV/AIDS death. A sustainable model of rapid initiation of antiretroviral therapy should be further established to increase the proportion of rapid antiretroviral therapy for HIV/AIDS in Wuhan.

Dry eye disease(DED)is a common ocular surface disorder worldwide, primarily characterized by a loss of homeostasis of the tear film, and frequently associated with meibomian gland dysfunction(MGD), decreased tear film stability, ocular discomfort, and visual impairment. In recent years, factors such as the widespread use of digital devices,the aging population, and environmental changes have contributed to a significant increase in its global prevalence, making it a major public health concern. Red light therapy(RLT), also known as low-level laser therapy(LLLT)or photobiomodulation(PBM), is a non-invasive treatment that utilizes low-energy red or near-infrared light to irradiate tissues. It exerts photobiomodulatory effects to promote cellular repair and functional recovery. This therapy has demonstrated considerable potential in treating various ocular conditions. Its broader clinical application could improve therapeutic outcomes, alleviate patient discomfort and financial burden, and reduce the consumption of healthcare resources, thereby yielding significant socio-economic benefits. This paper systematically reviews the multifaceted mechanisms and application prospects of RLT in managing DED, including its anti-inflammatory effects, improvement of meibomian gland function, promotion of conjunctival goblet cell repair, and alleviation of visual fatigue, aiming to provide a theoretical foundation and practical reference for its clinical adoption.

The concept of holism is the core idea of traditional Chinese medicine （TCM）. Various organs and tissues coordinate with each other to maintain the body's life activities， with a close and mutual influence between the spleen， stomach， and the central nervous system （brain）. The gut-brain axis plays an important bridging role between the digestive system and the central nervous system， achieving bidirectional information exchange between the brain and the gastrointestinal tract through complex neuroendocrine and immune mechanisms. The theory of cross-organ interaction involves the mutual influence， coordination， and integration between different organs and systems； multimodality， on the other hand， utilizes multiple sensory modalities， such as vision， hearing， and touch， to convey information. By combining TCM theory with the gut-brain axis theory， a cross-organ multimodal characterization system is established to explore its mechanism and application value in refractory diseases such as functional gastrointestinal disorders， precancerous gastrointestinal diseases， Alzheimer's disease， Parkinson's syndrome， type 2 diabetes， and depression.

Objective:To compare the the cultivation effects of human embryos in dry and humid incubators.Methods:A total of 479 infertile patients who underwent in vitro fertilization (IVF) treatment at Reproductive Center of Guiyang Maternal and Child Health Care Hospital from October 2020 to April 2022. The study was divided into two stages. The first stage of the study was a self-comparative research with 95 cases from the same period and source. The embryos were divided into dry and humid incubator groups to compare the embryo development indicators. In the second stage of the study, the patients were divided into six groups, including 10 μL humid incubator group ( n=64), 20 μL humid incubator group ( n=64), 30 μL humid incubator group ( n=64), 10 μL dry incubator group ( n=64), 20 μL dry incubator group ( n=64), and 30 μL dry incubator group ( n=64). The general clinical data, embryo development indicators, pregnancy outcomes, and the osmotic pressure and pH values of each group at 24 h, 48 h and 72 h were detected and compared. Results:After cultivation of the same patient's embryos in dry and humid incubator, the total blastocyst formation rate [62.3% (162/260)] and high-quality blastocyst rate [24.6% (64/260)] in dry incubator were lower than those in the humid incubator [71.6% (252/352), P=0.015; 32.1% (113/352), P=0.043]. Compared with the other microdroplet groups, the osmotic pressure of cleavage culture medium in 10 μL group of dry incubator at 48 h and 72 h and blastocyst culture medium were significantly increased, the differences among the groups were significant (cleavage culture medium, all P<0.001; blastocyst culture medium, P=0.006, P=0.008). There was no significant difference in pH value among different microdroplet volume groups at the same period (all P>0.05). There were no significant differences in general data among the different microdroplet groups (all P>0.05). Compared with the other microdroplet groups, 10 μL dry incubator group exhibited significantly lower transferable embryo rate (all P<0.001). When compared with 20 μL and 30 μL groups in both dry and humid incubators, 10 μL dry incubator group showed a lower day 5 blastocyst formation rate, lower total blastocyst formation rate, and lower high-quality blastocyst formation rate, the differences among the groups were significant (all P<0.05). There were no significant differences in the number of transferred embryos, the ratio of cleavage-stage embryos and the ratio of high-quality embryos among different groups (all P>0.05). Compared with the other microdroplet groups, the clinical pregnancy rate, the embryo implantation rate, the live birth rate of fresh transplanted embryos and the cumulative pregnancy rate in 10 μL group in the dry incubator decreased, and the miscarriage rate increased, but all were not significant (all P>0.05). Conclusion:Compared with humid incubators, there are no significant differences in embryo development and pregnancy outcomes for droplet volumes of 20 μL or above in dry incubators. However, the 10 μL microdroplet culture in the dry incubator is not conducive to embryonic development, which may be related to the increased osmotic pressure of the microdroplet.

Objective:To investigate the impact of vitamin D deficiency on the outcomes of in vitro fertilization and embryo transfer (IVF-ET) in women with polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) and normal ovarian reserve (NOR). Methods:A retrospective cohort study was conducted on infertile women undergoing their first IVF-ET cycle in the Department of Reproductive Genetics, Zhengzhou Maternity and Child Health Care Hospital from January 2018 to December 2023, including 318 PCOS patients (group P) and 528 NOR patients (group N). Each group was divided into three subgroups according to serum 25-hydroxyvitamin D [25(OH)D] levels: severe deficiency [25(OH)D<12 μg/L], deficiency [12 μg/L≤25(OH)D<20 μg/L], and non-deficiency [25(OH)D≥20 μg/L]. The impact of vitamin D deficiency on pregnancy outcomes was analyzed in each group. 1∶1 propensity score matching was applied to match the baseline characteristics between group P and group N , resulting in 158 matched cases of PCOS (group P) and NOR (group N). Pregnancy outcomes were compared between the two groups under the same vitamin D status.Results:1) Among PCOS patients, there were no significant differences in general characteristics and pregnancy outcomes among the three subgroups (all P>0.05). The two pronuclei (2PN) rate in the severe deficiency subgroup [59.93% (721/1 203)] was significantly lower than that in the deficiency subgroup [63.70% (1 032/1 620)], with a statistically significant difference ( P=0.045), and both were lower than that in the non-deficiency subgroup [68.06% (554/814)], with a statistically significant difference ( P<0.001, P=0.037). There were no statistically significant differences in the number of oocytes retrieved and MⅡ oocytes, MⅡ oocyte rate, 2PN number, 2PN rate, cleavage number, cleavage rate, number of available embryos on day 3 (day 3, D3), number of high-quality embryos on D3, D3 high-quality embryo rate, clinical pregnancy rate, embryo implantation rate, early miscarriage rate, live birth rate, and premature birth rate among subgroups (all P>0.05). Female age ( OR=0.930, 95% CI: 0.871-0.992, P=0.028), endometrial thickness on the day of transfer ( OR=0.877, 95% CI: 0.791-0.971, P=0.012), number of D3 high-quality embryos ( OR=1.135, 95% CI: 1.050-1.228, P=0.001), and ovulation stimulating protocol ( OR=2.230, 95% CI: 1.153-4.314, P=0.017) were independent factors influencing clinical pregnancy. 2) Among NOR patients, there were no significant differences in general characteristics, pregnancy outcomes, laboratory parameters, or other outcome-related indices among the three subgroups (all P>0.05). Female age ( OR=0.944, 95% CI: 0.900-0.990, P=0.018), number of D3 high-quality embryos ( OR=1.070, 95% CI: 1.004-2.597, P=0.037), and number of transferred embryos ( OR=1.753, 95% CI: 1.184-2.597, P=0.005) were independent factors influencing clinical pregnancy. 3) After matching, there were no significant differences in baseline characteristics and pregnancy outcomes between group P and group N (all P>0.05). In the severe vitamin D deficiency state, group P had significantly lower MⅡ oocyte rate [76.64% (525/685)], 2PN rate [59.69% (345/578)], embryo implantation rate [35.71% (30/84)], and live birth rate [34.00% (17/50)] compared with group N [81.58% (465/570), P=0.033; 67.00% (335/500), P=0.013; 51.28% (40/78), P=0.046; 55.32% (26/47), P=0.035]. In the vitamin D deficiency state, the 2PN rate in group P [66.50% (532/800)] was significantly lower than that in group N [72.00% (725/1 007), P=0.012]. Conclusion:Vitamin D deficiency may adversely affect IVF-ET outcomes in patients with PCOS, with more pronounced effects in cases of severe deficiency. However, it has no impact on the assisted reproductive outcomes in NOR patients.
