Rotor syndrome is an autosomal recessive disorder of bilirubin metabolism， and it is difficult to diagnose and differentiate due to its extreme rarity and a lack of specific clinical manifestations. In recent years， the development of genetic testing technology has enabled the early diagnosis of atypical patients. Literature search shows that only 19 cases with detailed clinical and genetic data have been reported. This article reports a case of a pregnant woman with an increase in direct bilirubin during pregnancy who was diagnosed with Rotor syndrome based on a bi-allelic mutation in the SLCO1B1 and SLCO1B3 genes and delivered successfully at last， and a retrospective analysis was performed for related articles， in order to facilitate the early accurate diagnosis of patients with Rotor syndrome and guide medications from the perspective of genetic mechanisms.

ObjectiveTo validate the therapeutic effect of Yinqi Sanhuang Jiedu decoction （YQSH） on a mouse model of carbon tetrachloride （CCl₄）-induced liver fibrosis and to investigate its correlations with the Piezo-type mechanosensitive ion channel component 1 （Piezo1）-Yes-associated protein （YAP） mechanical signaling axis and macrophage polarization. MethodsFifty-four C57BL/6J mice were randomized into a blank control group， a 4-week model group， a 6-week model group， a 8-week model group， a positive drug （silymarin， 55 mg·kg^-1·d^-1） group， and low-， medium-， and high-dose （8.325， 16.65， 33.3 g·kg^-1·d^-1， respectively） YQSH groups. Except the 6-week model group （n=12）， each of the other groups had 6 mice. Mice in other groups except the blank control group received intraperitoneal injections of 10% CCl₄ twice weekly for the modeling of liver fibrosis. Drug interventions began one week after the initial modeling through gavage， and the blank control and model groups received 0.2 mL of normal saline via gavage. The histopathological changes and collagen deposition in the liver were observed via hematoxylin-eosin （HE）， Masson's trichrome， and Sirius red staining. Serum activities of alanine aminotransferase （ALT） and aspartate aminotransferase （AST）， as well as serum levels of total protein （TP）， albumin （ALB）， total bilirubin （TBIL）， hyaluronic acid （HA）， laminin （LN）， procollagen type Ⅲ （PCⅢ）， and collagen type Ⅳ （Ⅳ-C）， were measured. The levels of tumor necrosis factor-α （TNF-α） and interleukin-1β （IL-1β） in the liver tissue were determined by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay （ELISA）. The protein and mRNA levels of Piezo1 and YAP1 in the liver tissue were determined by immunohistochemistry （IHC） and Real-time fluorescence quantitative polymerase chain reaction （Real-time PCR）， respectively. Co-localization of Piezo1 with YAP1， and YAP1 with inducible nitric oxide synthase （iNOS） was observed by the immunofluorescence （IF） assay. The proportions of M1-type （F4/80⁺CD80⁺） and M2-type （F4/80⁺CD206⁺） macrophages in the liver tissue were examined by flow cytometry. Gene Ontology （GO） and Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes （KEGG） enrichment analyses and gene set enrichment analysis （GSEA） were performed through transcriptomic sequencing. ResultsCompared with the blank control group， the model group exhibited gradually worsened liver fibrosis at the 4^th， 6^th， and 8^th weeks. The 6- and 8-week model groups showcased inflammatory cell infiltration and collagen deposition in the liver （P<0.01） and upregulated protein levels of both Piezo1 and YAP1 （P<0.01）. Compared with the model groups， treatment with YQSH improved the liver function （P<0.05， P<0.01）， alleviated liver fibrosis （P<0.05， P<0.01）， and reduced intrahepatic inflammatory cell infiltration and collagen deposition （P<0.01）. Furthermore， the treatment downregulated the protein and mRNA levels of Piezo1 and YAP1 （P<0.05， P<0.01）， lowered the levels of inflammatory factors TNF-α and IL-1β （P<0.05， P<0.01）， and decreased the ratio of CD80 （M1-type）/CD206 （M2-type） macrophage proteins （P<0.01）. The IF assay showed co-localization of YAP1 with Piezo1 and iNOS. Compared with the model groups， YQSH treatment downregulated the expression of Piezo1， YAP1， and iNOS （P<0.05， P<0.01）. Transcriptomic analysis suggested that the anti-liver fibrosis effect of YQSH may be related to the Hippo signaling pathway （P<0.05）. ConclusionThe anti-liver fibrosis effect of YQSH may be related to its inhibition of the Piezo1-YAP signaling axis and regulation of macrophage polarization.

Objective:To investigate the correlation between insulin resistance surrogate indicators and early-stage kidney injury in type 2 diabetes mellitus(T2DM).Methods:A total of 918 T2DM patients hospitalized in the Endocrinology Department of Xinhua Hospital from January 2018 to December 2020 were selected, including 313 patients with early-stage kidney injury and 605 without. Differences in insulin resistance surrogate indicators, including triglyceride to high-density lipoprotein cholesterol ratio(TG/HDL-C), triglyceride glucose(TyG) index, and triglyceride glucose-body mass index(TyG-BMI), were compared between the two groups. Factors associated with early-stage kidney injury in T2DM were analyzed, and the impact of TG/HDL-C, TyG index, and TyG-BMI on early-stage kidney injury in T2DM were explored.Results:Compared with T2DM patients without early-stage kidney injury, those with early-stage kidney injury exhibited significantly elevated levels of TG/HDL-C, TyG index, and TyG-BMI( P< 0.001). TG/HDL-C, TyG index, TyG-BMI, age, duration of diabetes, systolic blood pressure, fasting insulin, and HbA 1C were identified as independent risk factors for early-stage kidney injury in T2DM. Compared to the Q1 quartile, the risk in the Q4 quartile was 3.168 times(95% CI 1.993-5.036) for TG/HDL-C, 2.714 times(95% CI 1.710-4.306) for TyG index, and 2.893 times(95% CI 1.820-5.598) for TyG-BMI. Conclusion:Insulin resistance surrogate indicators TG/HDL-C, TyG index, and TyG-BMI are significantly elevated in T2DM patients with early-stage kidney injury, serving as independent risk factors for early-stage renal impairment in T2DM.

Objective To explore the differences in neural activity between patients with anorexia nervosa(AN)and healthy controls(HC),as well as the association between these differences and symptoms in AN patients,using activation likelihood estimation(ALE)meta-analysis.Methods The literature search covered the period from 2000 to March 2025.From a pool of 588 identified studies,4 studies focusing on the neural activity differences between AN patients and HC were selected for inclusion.These studies comprised 106 participants and 21 sets of coordinates.The ALE meta-analysis method was employed,and the GingerALE software was used to systematically analyze the reported brain region changes and their peak coordinates,aiming to investigate the differences in brain functional activity between AN patients and HC.Results Compared to the HC group,AN group showed significantly enhanced activation in the left parahippocampal gyrus/amygdala(ALE value=0.39×10-2),right parahippocampal gyrus/amygdala(ALE value=0.39×10-2)and suboccipital gyrus(ALE value=0.39×10-2),along with a significant reduction in activation in Brodmann area 17(ALE value=0.61×10-2)(P<0.01,FWE corrected).Conclusion Key brain regions in AN patients including the parahippocampal gyrus,inferior occipital gyrus,and amygdala demonstrate significant functional activation abnormalities.

Objective In this study,clinical data of Alzheimer's disease(AD)patients,structural magnetic resonance imaging(sMRI)data,and positron emission tomography(PET)data were used to construct an auxiliary diagnostic model with good classification effects,so as to formulate a personalized treatment plan at the early stage of the patients,which is of great significance for the prevention and treatment of AD.Methods In this study,a total of 401 study subjects containing complete sMRI images and PET images were selected from the ADNI-1(Alzheimer's disease neuroimaging initiative-1,ADNI-1)database.We used statistical parameters mapping(SPM)and voxel-based morphometric(VBM)analysis of MATLAB to perform pre-processing operations such as spatial normalization and skull stripping on sMRI images and PET images of the study subjects.With the help of the brain atlas was used to segment the brain tissue structure.After that,the segmented gray matter was extracted from the corresponding brain regions based on anatomical automatic labeling,and the feature values of all brain regions were obtained.Then the extracted brain region feature values are then subjected to fisher score,support vector machine-recursive feature elimination(SVM-RFE)and least absolute shrinkage and selection operator(LASSO),a hybrid filtered-wrapped-embedded feature selection method with three different principles,to realize the dimensionality reduction of high-dimensional image data.Finally,the PAC-Bayesian strategy boosting based multi-view learning(PB-MVBoost)model is constructed based on multi-view decision fusion for clinical,sMRI and PET data.And it is compared with the traditional machine learning models support vector machine(SVM),decision tree(DT),K-nearest neighbor(KNN),random forests(RF),adaptive boosting(AdaBoost),and extreme gradient boosting(XGBoost)which are constructed after concatenating views.It is compared with multi-view multi-kernel learning models(AverageMKL,EasyMKL)and multi-view confusion matrix boosting,which is also the same multi-view decision fusion.Results Among all the multi-view fusion models of AD-MCI,the PB-MVBoost model based on decision fusion has the best performance(accuracy=0.98,F1-score=0.97,precision=0.98,recall=0.96,MSE=0.07).Among all the multi-view fusion models of MCI-NC,the model performance of PB-MVBoost based on decision fusion was the best(accuracy=0.99,F1-score=0.98,precision=0.99,recall=0.98,MSE=0.05).Conclusion In the classification of AD-MCI and MCI-NC,the distinction and calibration degree of PB-MVBoost model were optimized,indicating that the auxiliary diagnosis model of Alzheimer's disease constructed by PB-MVBoost classifier based on decision fusion performed the best,which could improve the recognition of patients with mild cognitive impairment and then assist clinical diagnosis.

Objective The prediction model of recurrence within two years after complete remission of diffuse large B-cell lymphoma(DLBCL)patients was constructed based on frienemy indecision region dynamic ensemble selection(FIRE-DES)to provide decision-making basis for the treatment of patients.Methods To collect data of 498 patients who achieved complete response after treatment from January 2010 to January 2020 in a Grade-A hospital in Shanxi Province.A FIRE-DES combination prediction model based on four common category-disequilibrium treatment methods was constructed and compared with five traditional single classifiers and two integrated classifiers.Results Among the four categories of unbalance algorithms,synthetic minority oversampling technique and edited nearest neighbor(SMOTE-ENN)algorithm has obtained the optimal classification performance.On this basis,the classification effect of dynamic ensemble selection performance(DESP),K-nearest oracle union(KNORAU)and meta-learning for dynamic ensemble selection(META-DES)dynamic integration selection algorithms is obviously superior to the traditional single classifier and ensemble classifier model.The classification effect of the improved DESP,KNORAU and META-DES dynamic selection algorithms based on Frienemy Indecision Region is further improved.The classification performance of FIRE-META-DES was the best(Accuracy=0.909,Precision=0.906,Recall=0.967,AUC=0.879,F1-Score=0.936,Brier Score=0.088).Conclusion Aiming at the actual DLBCL data set,SMOTE-ENN+FIRE-META-DES combined prediction model for recurrence used in this paper achieves the optimal performance and low computational complexity,which can provide a strong reference for DLBCL recurrence prediction.
