Objective Previous studies on the association between lipid profiles and chronic kidney disease(CKD)have yielded inconsistent results and no defined thresholds for blood lipids. Methods A prospective cohort study including 32,351 subjects who completed baseline and follow-up surveys over 5 years was conducted.Restricted cubic splines and Cox models were used to examine the association between the lipid profiles and CKD.A regression discontinuity design was used to determine the cutoff value of lipid profiles that was significantly associated with increased the risk of CKD. Results Over a median follow-up time of 2.2(0.5,4.2)years,648(2.00%)subjects developed CKD.The lipid profiles that were significantly and linearly related to CKD included total cholesterol(TC),triglycerides(TG),high-density lipoprotein cholesterol(HDL-C),TC/HDL-C,and TG/HDL-C,whereas low-density lipoprotein cholesterol(LDL-C)and LDL-C/HDL-C were nonlinearly correlated with CKD.TC,TG,TC/HDL-C,and TG/HDL-C showed an upward jump at the cutoff value,increasing the risk of CKD by 0.90%,1.50%,2.30%,and 1.60%,respectively,whereas HDL-C showed a downward jump at the cutoff value,reducing this risk by 1.0%.Female and participants with dyslipidemia had a higher risk of CKD,while the cutoff values for the different characteristics of the population were different. Conclusion There was a significant association between lipid profiles and CKD in a prospective cohort from Northwest China,while TG,TC/HDL-C,and TG/HDL-C showed a stronger risk association.The specific cutoff values of lipid profiles may provide a clinical reference for screening or diagnosing CKD risk.

Objective:To investigate the risk factors for the occurrence and poor in-hospital prognosis in patients with peripartum cardiomyopathy (PPCM).Methods:The clinical data of 35 patients with PPCM and 35 healthy pregnant women in Xuanwu Hospital, Capital Medical University and Beijing Friendship Hospital Affiliated to Capital Medical University from January 2003 to January 2022 were retrospectively analyzed. The personal histories, laboratory examination, imaging examination, cardiac function outcome, etc were collected. According to the left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) at discharge, the patients with PPCM were divided into in-hospital recovery group (LVEF≥50%, 18 cases) and prolonged disease group (LVEF<50%, 17 cases). Multivariate Logistic regression analysis was used to analyze independent risk factors of poor in-hospital prognosis in patients with PPCM.Results:Among 35 patients with PPCM, the age was (29.81 ± 5.37) years old, 17 cases (48.57%) complicated with gestational hypertension, 6 cases (17.14%) complicated with gestational diabetes mellitus, 24 cases (68.57%) of New York Heart Association (NYHA) cardiac function classification was Ⅲ to Ⅳ class, and 4 cases died (11.43%). The gestational age in patients with PPCM was significantly shorter than that in healthy pregnant women: (36.26 ± 4.27) weeks vs. (38.54 ± 4.59) weeks, the rates of multiple pregnancy and gestational hypertension were significantly higher than those in healthy pregnant women: 17.14% (6/35) vs. 2.86% (1/35) and 48.57% (17/35) vs. 11.43% (4/35), and there were statistical differences ( P<0.05 or <0.01). Compared with hospital recovery group, the patients in protracted disease group had shorter gestational age, larger left ventricular end-diastolic diameter, higher serum creatinine, C-reactive protein and amino-terminal pro-brain natriuretic peptide (NT-proBNP), worse NYHA cardiac function classification, and there were statistical differences ( P<0.05 or <0.01); but there were no statistical difference in LVEF at the first diagnosis and troponin I between two groups ( P>0.05). Multivariate Logistic regression analysis result showed that elevated creatinine was an independent risk factor for poor in-hospital prognosis in patients with PPCM ( OR = 4.554, 95% CI 1.536 to 13.684, P = 0.018). Conclusions:The gestational hypertension may be a risk factor for PPCM. The gestational hypertension, earlier onset time, enlarged left ventricular end-diastolic diameter, high NT-proBNP, high C-reactive protein, high creatinine and high cardiac function NYHA classification may be risk factors for poor in-hospital prognosis in patients with PPCM; and elevated creatinine is an independent risk factor for poor in-hospital prognosis in patients with PPCM.

Objective:
To compare the effectiveness of less invasive surfactant administration (LISA) and intubate surfactant extubation (INSURE) on respiratory distress syndrome (RDS) among premature infant, so as to provide insights into improving treatment effects and reducing complications of RDS among premature infants.
Methods:
A total of 71 premature infants with RDS in Anhui Provincial Maternity and Child Health Hospital were randomly assigned into the LISA and INSURE group, and pulmonary surfactant (PS) administration was carried out by LISA and INSURE with basic support therapy and respiratory support therapy. The general information, arterial blood gas analysis before and after treatment, respiratory support time and incidence of complications were collected and compared between the two groups.
Results:
There were 31 cases in the LISA group, with a gestational age of (29.81±0.99) weeks and 22 male cases, and 40 cases in the INSURE group, with a gestational age of (30.02±1.13) weeks and 26 male cases. There were no significant differences in basic characteristics (including gestational age, birth weight, gender, etc.) between the two groups (all P>0.05). After administration, the level of PaO2 was lower in the LISA group than in the INSURE group [(78.35±6.55) mmHg vs. (87.68±8.21) mmHg, P<0.05], the level of PaCO2 was higher in the LISA group than in the INSURE group [(43.03±6.34) mmHg vs. (38.68±9.69) mmHg, P<0.05], and the incidence of bronchopulmonary dysplasia was lower in the LISA group than in the INSURE group (48.39% vs. 72.50%, P<0.05). Linear regression analysis showed that with the duration of LISA administration increase (2-7 min), the minimum heart rate of premature infants increased linearly (β=13, P<0.05).
Conclusions
Compared with INSURE, LISA administration could slowly improve ventilation oxygenation, reduce hyperventilation and incidence of bronchopulmonary dysplasia among premature infants with RDS. The incidence of slow heart rate may be reduced by appropriately prolonging the administration duration.

Background Current evidence on whether occupational sulfur dioxide (SO2) exposure affects the risk of hypertension is still limited, and the research results of the effect of environmental SO2 exposure on risk of hypertension remain inconsistent. Objective To analyze the association between self-reported occupational exposure to SO2 and the risk of hypertension, and the potential dose-response relationship between the years of exposure to SO2 and the risk of hypertension. Methods Based on the Jinchang cohort, a nested case-control study design was adopted. A total of 841 newly diagnosed hypertension patients were followed up as the case group, and the control group was selected with 1∶1 individual matching based on non-occupational factors and occupational factors, respectively. The former matching conditions included age ±2 years old, same gender, working age ±2 years, and home address in the same sub-district. The latter was limited to working in the same workshop on the basis of the former conditions. Finally, the former included 717 controls and the latter included 488 controls. A unified questionnaire was used to collect general demographic characteristics, lifestyle habits, history of diabetes, family history of hypertension, and information on occupational exposure to SO2 (self-reported history of occupational exposure to SO2 and years of exposure to SO2). Conditional logistic regression model was used to analyze the association between occupational exposure to SO2 and hypertension, and the dose-response relationship between the years of SO2 exposure and the risk of hypertension. Results In the nested case-control study matching with the non-occupational factors, the OR of hypertension in workers with self-reported occupational exposure to SO2 was 2.39 (95%CI: 1.68-3.39); while when matching with the occupational factors, the OR of hypertension in workers with self-reported occupational exposure to SO2 was 1.48 (95%CI: 1.04-2.12). The results of the dose-response relationship showed that as the SO2 exposure years increased from 1-9 years, 10-19 years, 20-29 years, and 30 years and above, in the nested case-control study matching with non-occupational factors, the ORs of hypertension were 1.85 (95%CI: 0.68-5.08), 1.46 (95%CI: 0.58-3.67), 1.64 (95%CI: 1.00-2.67), and 4.95 (95%CI: 2.63-9.31), respectively; in the nested case-control study matching with occupational factors, the ORs of hypertension were 0.98 (95%CI: 0.40-2.41), 1.84 (95%CI: 0.72-4.70), 1.37 (95%CI: 0.82-2.29), and 2.44 (95%CI: 1.37-4.35), respectively. The two dose-response relationships were positive by χ2 trend test (Ptrend<0.05). Conclusion Self-reported occupational exposure to SO2 is associated with the risk of hypertension in the study population, and the hypertension risk increases with the increase of SO2 exposure years.

ObjectiveBased on sequential metabolism and ultra-high performance liquid chromatography-high resolution mass spectrometry (UPLC-HRMS), to identify the prototype components and metabolites of Tongfengding capsules in rat plasma. MethodAn ACQUITY UPLC BEH Shield RP18 column (2.1 mm×100 mm, 1.7 µm) was used for gradient elution with 0.1% formic acid aqueous solution (A)-acetonitrile (B) as the mobile phase (0-1 min, 5%B; 1-2.4 min, 5%-10%B; 2.4-13.5 min, 10%-32%B; 13.5-18.5 min, 32%-90%B; 18.5-19 min, 90%-5%B; 19-21 min, 5%B) at a flow rate of 0.3 mL·min-1, injection volume of 2 μL and column temperature at 35 ℃. The heated electrospray ionization (HESI) was applied under positive and negative ion modes, and the scanning range was m/z 100-1 500. By comparing the differences between the administered plasma and the blank plasma, the prototype components and metabolites in intestinal metabolism sample and liver metabolism sample prepared by intestinal perfusion with parallel blood collection, and comprehensive metabolism sample prepared by intragastric administration method were identified. ResultA total of 76, 53, 74 chemical components were detected in the intestinal metabolism sample, the liver metabolism sample and the comprehensive metabolism sample. A total of 100 components were identified from these different plasma samples, including 64 prototype components (34 alkaloids, 12 terpenoids, 9 organic acids, 6 flavonoids and 3 other components) and 36 metabolites. The main metabolic reactions involved in the formation of metabolites were glucuronidation, deglucosylation, dehydrogenation and hydroxylation. ConclusionThe chemical components of Tongfengding capsules can undergo a series of metabolic reactions in the intestine and liver, and a large number of metabolites are generated, among which alkaloids may be the leading component group for efficacy, which can lay the foundation for systematic elucidating the material basis of Tongfengding capsules in vivo.

Objective:To explor the effects of mentalization-based family therapy (MBFT) on the emotions of anxiety and depression, reflective functions, and related brain regions of adolescents with depression.Methods:Thirty-two adolescent patients with depression were selected in Beijing Huilongguan Hospital.Among them, fifteen patients treated with conventional drugs were defined as the control group, the other seventeen patients served as the observation group.On the basis of routine drug treatment, patients in the observation group were treated with 1.5 h MBFT once a week, for a total of 3 months.Among them, 10 patients underwent resting functional magnetic resonance imaging(rs-fMRI) scans before and after the intervention.SPSS 23.0 was used for statistical analysis of scale evaluation data by using chi-square test and repeated-measure analysis of variance, and pairwise Pearson correlation was used to construct a brain network matrix for the MRI results.The patient's brain network matrix was put into Gretna to calculate, and then use repeated measures analysis of variance and t test for judgment. Results:(1)Repeated measurement analysis of variance showed, over time and group, before and after intervention, the group×time interactions of patients' reflective function, anxiety, depression were statistically significant ( F=5.113, 9.350, 5.264, all P<0.05). Further simple effect analysis showed, in the observation group, there were statistically significant differences in patients' anxiety ((55.09±14.35) vs (30.58±3.62)), depression ((61.58±16.81) vs (31.00±3.48)) before and after intervention (all P<0.01). There was no significant difference in reflective function ((8.71±0.51) vs (8.87±0.50) ) in the observation group before and after intervention( P> 0.05). The reflective function((8.92±0.33) vs (8.73±0.35)) and anxiety((50.67±13.88) vs (45.78±12.89)) scores of the control group were not statistically significant different before and after intervention(all P>0.05), and the depression scores of the control group before and after inter-vention((69.33±9.11) vs (50.94±7.99)) were statistically significant different( P<0.01). (2)rs-fMRI showed that, using the posterior parietal lobe and the medial prefrontal lobe as seed points, the group×time interactions with right inferior frontal gyrus, right fusiform gyrus, right superior temporal gyrus, left middle temporal gyrus and right superior frontal gyrus were statistically significant ( F=29.56, 20.63, 8.69, 9.49, 8.62, all P<0.05). The further simple effect analysis showed in the observation group, the pre-test was less than the post-test, and the difference was statistically significant( P<0.05). In the control group, there were not statistically significant differences in the functional connection strength before and after the test(all P>0.05). (3)The brain network analysis of 264 regions of interest (ROIs) in the whole brain showed that the number of modules in the observation group was less than that in the control group, and the difference was statistically significant ( t=-2.64, P=0.046). Conclusion:MBFT can improve the anxiety and depression of adolescent patients with depression.It enhances the functional link between mentalization related brain regions and the whole brain, and enhances the activity of the whole brain link to become more integrated.
