ObjectiveTo construct an actor-network for integrating physical activity into rehabilitation services based on the World Health Organization Rehabilitation in Health Service System framework and actor-network theory (ANT). MethodsContent analysis was employed using the six building blocks of health service systems as the theoretical framework. Actors related to rehabilitation services were extracted and categorized into a rehabilitation actor pool, while a physical activity actor pool was formed based on four major physical activity scenarios. Actors from both pools were integrated, deduplicated and classified to form a final list of integrated actors. Using ANT, the construction process of the actor network integrating physical activity into rehabilitation was analyzed through the four stages of translation: problematization, interessment, enrollment and mobilization. ResultsA dynamic integration network was constructed, comprising human actors (patients, rehabilitation professionals, researchers, sports coaches, government departments, medical institutions, community organizations and industry media, etc.) and non-human actors (assistive devices, sports infrastructure, smart equipment, information systems, online exercise guidance systems, laws and regulations, strategic documents, and exercise prescriptions, etc.). The study identified maximizing rehabilitation outcomes as the mandatory passage point and elaborated on the critical role of government departments as focal actors in coordinating various stakeholders. ConclusionThe integration of physical activity into rehabilitation services is a dynamic network constructed by diverse actors through a process of translation. ANT provides an operational theoretical framework for cross-departmental governance of rehabilitation policies in China, promotes the spatial expansion of the rehabilitation field, and drives its transformation toward a networked and ecological system. The government needs to play a leading role in facilitating role reconstruction and synergy among heterogeneous actors in both the sports and rehabilitation sectors through mechanism design, to create a bidirectional empowerment mechanism that fosters mutual progress and ensures the sustainable development of integrated services.

It is proposed that yangming （阳明） turbid heat and dysfunction of the chong and ren （冲任） vessels are the key pathogenesis underlying abnormal uterine bleeding caused by polycystic ovary syndrome （PCOS）. The general principle of treatment is to clear and drain the yangming channel and resolve turbid heat. During the acute bleeding phase， the approach is to clear heat， cool the blood， consolidate the chong vessel， and stop bleeding. During the chronic phase， the focus shifts to resolving phlegm and removing stasis， unblocking and purging qi movement. And during the late stage， the method of boosting qi and nourishing yin， consolidating the root and regulating menstruation is suggested. In clinical practice， the self-formulated Yishen Quzhuo Formula （益肾祛浊方） serves as the foundation， with flexible modifications and adjustments made according to disease stage and individual clinical presentation.

ObjectiveTo perform metabolic associated fatty liver disease （MAFLD） screening among individuals attending community health institutions， to identify the patients at a low， moderate or high risk of advanced liver fibrosis based on fibrosis-4 index （FIB-4） and liver stiffness measurement （LSM） measured by liver transient elastography， and to implement stratified management. MethodsA cross-sectional study was conducted among 630 individuals attending Beijing Baizhifang Community Health Service Center from January to July 2024， and they were divided into MAFLD group and non-MAFLD group. According to body mass index （BMI）， the MAFLD group was further divided into lean MAFLD group （BMI<23 kg/m²） and non-lean MAFLD group （BMI≥23 kg/m²）. The above groups were compared in terms of demographic features， laboratory markers， hepatic steatosis， and LSM. Fibrosis risk stratification was performed for MAFLD patients based on FIB-4 and LSM， and a closed-loop management system involving referral to tertiary hospitals and follow-up at community health institutions was implemented. The Mann-Whitney U test was used for comparison of non-normally distributed continuous data between two groups， and the chi-square test or the Fisher’s exact test was used for comparison of categorical data between groups. ResultsThere were 445 individuals （70.6%） in the MAFLD group and 185 individuals （29.4%） in the non-MAFLD group. Compared with the non-MAFLD group， the MAFLD group had a significantly lower proportion of male individuals （χ²=4.299， P<0.05）， a significant reduction in the level of high-density lipoprotein cholesterol （Z=3.484， P<0.05）， and significant increases in body weight （Z=-7.366， P<0.05）， BMI （Z=-9.740， P<0.05）， waist circumference （Z=-6.397， P<0.05）， hip circumference （Z=-6.935， P<0.05）， alanine aminotransferase （ALT） （Z=-2.765， P<0.05）， fasting blood glucose （Z=-3.646， P<0.05）， triglyceride （TG） （Z=-6.569， P<0.05）， total cholesterol （Z=-2.033， P<0.05）， low-density lipoprotein cholesterol （Z=-2.935， P<0.05）， controlled attenuation parameter （CAP） （Z=-19.784， P<0.05）， and LSM （Z=-5.703， P<0.05）. Within the MAFLD group， there were 124 individuals （27.9%） in the lean MAFLD group and 321 individuals （72.1%） in the non-lean MAFLD group. Compared with the non-lean MAFLD group， the lean MAFLD group had significantly lower body weight （Z=-12.414， P<0.05）， BMI （Z=-16.363， P<0.05）， waist circumference （Z=-7.733， P<0.05）， hip circumference （Z=-8.595， P<0.05）， ALT （Z=-2.835， P<0.05）， aspartate aminotransferase （Z=-1.972， P<0.05）， TG （Z=-2.407， P<0.05）， CAP （Z=-4.429， P<0.05）， degree of steatosis （χ²=16.588， P<0.05）， and LSM （Z=-3.908， P<0.05）. Based on the results of FIB-4 and LSM， 76 patients at a moderate or high risk of liver fibrosis should be referred to a higher-level hospital for further management. ConclusionThe detection rate of MAFLD reaches 70.6% among the individuals attending community health institutions， among whom 76 （17.1%） should be referred to a higher-level hospital. Establishing a liver fibrosis risk stratification and management system based on FIB-4 and LSM among MAFLD individuals in communities provides a practical pathway for chronic disease management and referral system construction in community health institutions.

Objective To analyze personal external exposure dose monitoring results of pet hospital radiation workers in Beijing from 2022 to 2024, and to provide scientific evidence for developing effective monitoring protocols, standardizing radiological practices in pet hospitals, and protecting the health of both workers and the public. Methods Personal dose equivalents, H_p(10), were measured using GR-200A thermoluminescent dosimeters. Monitoring included radiation workers at 286 pet hospitals across all 16 districts of Beijing from 2022 to 2024. Each monitoring cycle lasted no more than 90 days. Annual effective doses were calculated by summing the results of four consecutive quarterly cycles. Data were processed and analyzed using Access and TLPS 6.41 software. All evaluations complied with national laws, regulations, and technical standards. Results A total of 1,579 person-time measurements were recorded. Only 51.87% of workers completed the full four-cycle annual monitoring schedule. Over the study period, the mean annual effective dose was 0.29 mSv, and the median dose was 0.14 mSv. The collective effective dose was 238.34 man-mSv. Notably, 94.26% of workers had annual effective doses below 1.0 mSv, and only 0.12% had doses at or above 5 mSv. Dose levels showed a statistically significant downward trend (P<0.05). Both independent and chain-branded clinics had a median annual effective dose of 0.14 mSv. In independent clinics, the proportion of workers with doses below 1.0 mSv increased from 80.77% in 2022 to 98.82% in 2024. In chain-branded clinics, this proportion rose from 96.88% to 98.11% over the same period. Conclusion Radiation exposure among pet hospital workers in Beijing remains at low levels, well below regulatory limits, and shows an overall declining trend. The disparity in personal doses between independent and chain-branded pet hospitals has diminished over time. Nevertheless, the industry still faces challenges such as high staff turnover and low monitoring completion rates. Expanding monitoring coverage and harmonizing protection standards would provide a scientific basis for precise, nationwide regulation.

This study aims to investigate the protective effect of naringenin(Nar)on cadmium(Cd)-induced liver injury in chickens and its regulatory role in endoplasmic reticulum stress(ERS)and autophagy.Forty-eight 1-day-old Hyland Brown egg roosters were divided into four groups:The control group,the Cd group(150 mg/kg CdCl2),the Nar group(250 mg/kg Nar),and the Cd+Nar group(150 mg/kg CdCl2+250 mg/kg Nar),and the rearing period was 60 days.On the 60th day,6 chickens were randomly selected from each group,and after fasting for 24 hours,blood was collected via vein and then removed from the neck and executed,the livers were collected and organ coefficients were calculated,changes in the content of liver function-related indexes were de-termined,pathological sections were made and observed,and the expression of mRNA and protein of related genes were detected by fluorescence quantitative PCR and Western blot method.The re-sults showed that Cd treatment resulted in a highly significant decrease(P＜0.01)in body mass,a highly significant increase(P＜0.01)in liver coefficient,a highly significant increase(P＜0.01)in serum levels of alanine aminotransferase(ALT),aspartate aminotransferase(AST),and lactate dehydrogenase(LDH)levels were highly significantly increased(P＜0.01),hepatic antioxidant capacity was highly significantly reduced(P＜0.01),and ERS-related genes(GRP-78,PERK,eIF-2α,CHOP,ATF-4,ATF-6)and autophagy-related genes(Atg-5,Beclin-1,LC3)mRNA expression was highly significantly up-regulated(P＜0.01),and the expression of mRNA for p62 was highly significantly reduced(P＜0.01).After the addition of Nar,Cd-induced liver injury was significantly alleviated,liver function indexes improved,hepatic antioxidant capacity was highly significantly el-evated(P＜0.01),mRNA expression of ERS-related genes(GRP-78,PERK,eIF-2α,CHOP,ATF-4,ATF-6)and autophagy-related genes(Atg-5,Beclin-1,LC3)was highly significantly decreased(P＜0.01)and mRNA expression of P62 was highly significantly increased(P＜0.01).This study suggests that Nar has potential in alleviating Cd-induced liver damage in chickens through the reg-ulation of ERS and autophagy,providing theoretical support for its application in livestock health.

OBJECTIVE To explore the correlation between phosphatidylinositol-3-kinase alpha(PIK3CA)gene mutation and the clinicopathological characteristics of Epstein-Barr virus(EBV)infection in patients with gastric cancer.METHODS Cancer tissue samples were collected from 593 patients with gastric cancer who under-went surgery at the Affiliated Hospital of Hebei University between Sep.2021 and Sep.2024.EBV infection in pa-tients with gastric cancer was detected by EBV-encoded RNA(EBER)in situ hybridization.Based on the detec-tion results,patients were divided into an EBV-positive group(n=31)and an EBV-negative group(n=562).The incidence of EBV-infected gastric cancer was compared among patients of different genders and ages.The relationship between EBV infection and PIK 3CA gene mutation,as well as clinicopathological character-istics of patients with gastric cancer,was analyzed.Spearman's correlation analysis was used to assess the correla-tion between PIK3CA gene mutation and EBV infection in patients with gastric cancer.RESULTS Among the 593 gastric cancer cases,31 were EBER-positive,with a positive rate of 5.23％.EBER showed scattered dot scope or diffuse staining,appearing as a dark brown signal localized in the nucleus.The PIK3CA gene mutation rate was higher in the EBV-positive group(32.26％)than in the EBV-negative group(P＜0.001).PIK3CA gene muta-tions mainly occurred in exons 9 and 20,with 2 cases of p.E542K mutation,5 cases of p.E545K mutation,1 case of pH1047L mutation,no cases of p.H1047R mutation were detected.The proportion of patients with tumors at the esophagogastric junction,T3-T4 invasion depth,and lymph node metastasis was higher in the EBV-positive group than in the EBV-negative group(P＜0.05).There was a positive correlation between PIK 3CA gene muta-tion and EBV infection in patients with gastric cancer(r=0.742,P=0.026).The proportion of EBV infection was higher in male patients with gastric cancer(6.49％)than in females(P＜0.001).CONCLUSIONS The inci-dence of EBV-infected gastric cancer is low,but it is closely related to PIK3CA gene mutation,gender,tumor lo-cation,invasion depth and lymph node metastasis in patients with gastric cancer.

BACKGROUND:The role of microRNA-214 in osteoporosis has been reported both at home and abroad,whereas the interrelationship between microRNA-214 and osteoarthritic articular cartilage and subchondral bone degeneration is unclear. OBJECTIVE:To investigate the relationship between microRNA-214 and cartilage and subchondral bone degeneration in mice with knee osteoarthritis. METHODS:Thirty C57BL/6J mice were randomly grouped:Experiment 1:sham operation group and medial meniscus destabilization group (n=3 per group) underwent hematoxylin-eosin staining and qPCR to detect changes in microRNA-214 gene expression;Experiment 2:sham operation group,medial meniscus destabilization group,medial meniscus destabilization+null-loaded adenovirus group (null-loaded group),and medial meniscus destabilization+microRNA-214 antagonist overexpression adenovirus group (antagonist group;n=6 per group). Cartilage tissues were taken from each group 4 weeks after surgery,and stained with hematoxylin-eosin,safranin O-fast green,and toluidine blue. qPCR and western blot were used to detect the expression of related factors in articular cartilage. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:(1) In Experiment 1,hematoxylin-eosin staining results showed that cartilage degeneration was visible in the medial meniscus destabilization group compared with the sham operation group. qPCR assay results showed that microRNA-214 was expressed in all the samples,and the expression level of microRNA-214 in cartilage samples of the medial meniscus destabilization group was significantly higher than that of the sham operation group (P<0.05). (2) In Experiment 2,the results of hematoxylin-eosin staining,safranin O-fast green staining,and toluidine blue staining showed that the degree of cartilage degeneration in the antagonist group was significantly reduced compared with the medial meniscus destabilization group. Adenovirus-validated PCR assay showed that the microRNA-214 expression level in cartilage tissue was higher in the null-loaded group than in the antagonist group (P<0.05). (3) In Experiment 2,X-ray results showed typical osteoarthritis imaging changes in the medial meniscus destabilization group and null-loaded group,while the degree of degenerative joint lesions was relatively mild in the antagonist group. The results of microcomputed tomography showed that after injection of microRNA-214 antagonist,trabecular structure model index became smaller in the antagonist group,and the data were better than those of the medial meniscus destabilization group and null-loaded group. (4) In Experiment 2,western blot results showed that The relative expression levels of cartilage-associated factor type Ⅱ collagen α1,sex-determining region Y-box 9,Runt-associated transcription factor 2,and osteopontin in cartilage specimens of the medial meniscus destabilization group and the null-loaded group were lower than that in the sham operation group and the antagonist group (P<0.05),whereas the relative expression level of matrix metalloproteinase 13 was higher in the medial meniscus destabilization group and the null-loaded group than the sham operation group and the antagonist group (P<0.05). (5) In Experiment 2,PCR results indicated that the relative mRNA expression of tumor necrosis factor-α and interleukin-6 was relatively higher in the medial meniscus destabilization group and null-loaded group,but relatively lower in the antagonist group,as compared with the sham operation group (P<0.05). The relative mRNA expression of tumor necrosis factor-α and interleukin-6 was also higher in the medial meniscus destabilization group and the null-loaded group compared with the antagonist group (P<0.05). To conclude,the expression level of microRNA-214 in articular cartilage was elevated in the mouse osteoarthritis model,suggesting that the elevated expression level of microRNA-214 is closely related to osteoarthritis;and injection of microRNA-214 antagonist into the knee joint cavity of the mouse osteoarthritis model could delay articular cartilage degradation,promote subchondral bone remodeling,and ameliorate the progression of osteoarthritis.

Objective:To evaluate the safety and efficacy of radiofrequency ablation（RFA）in the treatment of papillary thyroid microcarcinoma（PTMC）near and remote from the thyroid capsule.Methods:The clinical data，ultrasound images，ablation parameters and postoperative follow-up metrics were prospectively collected from 130 patients with pathologically confirmed PTMC in the Second Affiliated Hospital of Xi'an Jiaotong University who underwent RFA treatment between January 2023 and December 2024. According to whether the nodule margin was ≤ 2 mm from the thyroid capsule，the patients were divided into the subcapsular group（60 cases）and the remote from the capsule group（70 cases）. The clinical data，ablation parameters，complication rate，absorption of ablation lesions，tumor recurrence and metastasis were compared between the two groups.Results:The success rates of RFA in both groups were 100%. There was a statistically significant difference between the two groups at baseline in the location of nodules（ χ2=13.266， P=0.001）. After 12 months of routine follow-up，the incidence of complications was 5.00%（3/60）in the subcapsular group and 1.43%（1/70）in the remote from the capsule group，all complications recovered within 1 month，with no statistically significant difference（ P=0.407）. There were no significant changes in thyroid function［including free triiodothyronine（FT3），free thyroxine（FT4）and thyroid-stimulating hormone（TSH）］before and one month after RFA in the two groups（all P>0.05）. A statistically significant difference in the volume reduction rate（VRR）between the two groups was observed only when maximum diameter ≤ 5?mm at the 1st and 3rd months（all P<0.05）. For the remaining postoperative follow-up periods，there were no statistically significant differences in ablation zone volume or VRR between the two groups（all P>0.05）. At the final follow-up，for lesions with maximum diameter ≤ 5?mm，the tumor disappearance rate was 100% in both the subcapsular and remote from the capsule groups. For lesions with maximum diameter >5 mm，the rates were 78.4%（29/37）and 89.7%（26/29）in the respective groups，with no statistically significant difference between the two groups（ χ2 = 1.489， P =0.222）.There was no local tumor progression，lymph node metastasis or distant metastasis in either group. Conclusions:RFA is a safe and effective treatment for subcapsular PTMC，demonstrating comparable efficacy to that for PTMC located remote from the thyroid capsule.
