Aim To investigate the effect of circRNF13 on oxaliplatin resistance in colorectal cancer cells and its related mechanism.Methods Cell transfection was used to overexpress circRNF13 in oxaliplatin-sensi-tive colorectal cancer cells SW620 or to inhibit cir-cRNF13 expression in oxaliplatin-resistant colorectal cancer cells SW620/OXA.Real-time quantitative fluo-rescent PCR(qRT-PCR)was used to detect the ex-pression levels of circRNF13,miR-16-5p,and mir-324-5p.Cell Count Kit 8(CCK-8)was used to meas-ure cell viability.Clonal formation experiments were used to measure clonal formation number.Western blot was used to detect CyclinD1,PCNA,Bax,Bcl-2 and cleaved caspase-3 protein expression level.Flow cy-tometry and in situ end labeling(TUNEL)were used to detect apoptosis.Dual luciferase assay was used to verify the targeting relationship between circRNF13 and miR-16-5p and mir-324-5p.Results The expression level of circRNF13 in SW620/OXA cells was signifi-cantly higher than that in SW620 cells,while the ex-pression levels of miR-16-5p and miR-324-5p were sig-nificantly lower than those in SW620 cells(P＜0.05).Overexpression of circRNF13 significantly in-creased the IC50 of oxaliplatin against SW620 cells,and inhibition of circRNF13 expression significantly decreased the IC50 of oxaliplatin against SW620/OXA cells.Overexpression of circRNF13 significantly in-creased cell viability,clonal formation number,Cy-clinD1,PCNA and Bcl-2 levels of oxaliplatin treated SW620 cells,while significantly decreased apoptosis rate,apoptosis index,Bax and cleaved caspase-3 lev-els(P＜0.05).Inhibition of circRNF13 expression significantly decreased the cell viability,clonal forma-tion number,CyclinD1,PCNA and Bcl-2 levels of ox-aliplatin treated SW620/OXA cells,while significantly increased the apoptosis rate,apoptosis index,Bax and cleaved caspase-3 levels(P＜0.05).circRNF13 tar-geted inhibition of the expression of miR-16-5p and mir-324-5p.Conclusions circRNF13 can increase oxaliplatin resistance in colorectal cancer cells,and the mechanism may be related to the targeted inhibition of circRNF13 on the expression of miR-16-5p,mir-324-5p and other miRNAs.

As the first defense of respiratory system,airway epi-thelial cells(AECs)play an important role in separating the re-spiratory internal and external environment.They are essential for the natural immune function.Small airway lesions are an im-portant early pathology of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease(COPD),when AECs are exposed to harmful particles or gases for a long time,the epithelial barrier is damaged,and the signa-ling pathways which involved in differentiation,repair,and in-flammatory are disordered,resulting in epithelial cell cycle stag-nation and accelerated aging.A number of studies have sugges-ted that AECs of COPD patients express high levels of aging markers,suggesting that senescence of AECs is closely related to COPD.This review discusses the potential mechanisms of AECs senescence in COPD,the impact of AECs senescence on the de-velopment and severity of the disease,and highlights potential targets for modulating cellular senescence in airway epithelium as a therapeutic approach in COPD.

In recent years, the situation of climate change has intensified, posing a threat to public health. There is an urgent need to promote public health adaptation actions to climate change. In January 2025, the National Disease Control and Prevention Administration issued the "Guidelines for Public Health Adaptation Actions to Climate Change" (hereinafter referred to as the "Guidelines"). The Guidelines put forward 20 items of guidance on six categories of public health adaptation actions, including understanding basic concepts, comprehending important policies, learning core knowledge, paying attention to key populations, practicing a low-carbon lifestyle, and mastering protection skills. It elaborates on the key concepts and the latest policies that the public needs to understand, and also provides the behavioral concepts and protection skills that should be mastered to adapt to climate change. This article provides a systematic interpretation of the Guidelines, introducing the background, ideas, connotations, and applications of their compilation, with the aim of enhancing society′s cognitive understanding of the Guidelines.

Deep medullary veins(DMVs)are critical components of the cerebral medullary venous system,responsible for venous drainage of the deep cerebral white matter.Recent research indicates that DMVs are closely related to cerebral small vessel disease(CSVD)and associated cognitive disorders.The morphological structure of DMVs can be clearly visualized on susceptibility weighted imaging and quantitative susceptibility mapping,which could potentially serve as markers for assessing the severity of CSVD.This article reviewed the anatomical characteristics and physiological functions of DMVs,as well as the mechanistic correlations between DMVs and various CSVD imaging markers,aiming to provide novel theoretical insights for early diagnosis and clinical management of CSVD.

Objective:To investigate the feasibility of daily laparoscopic appendectomy for acute appendicitis in college students and establish a predictive model of the nomogram.Methods:A prospective analysis was performed on 82 college students with acute appendicitis who were admitted to hospital continuously from December 2023 to De-cember 2024.All patients received laparoscopic appendectomy and accelerated rehabilitation surgical measures combin-ing traditional Chinese and Western medicine,and were divided into two groups according to whether the daytime op-eration mode was achieved.Multivariate Logistic regression analysis was used to screen the independent influencing factors for achieving the day surgery model,and the prediction model was constructed,evaluated and verified.Results:Of the 82 patients,46(56%)achieved the daytime operation mode,the mean length of hospitalization was(41.37±6.33)h,and no serious complications were observed 30 days after surgery.The independent influencing factors for achieving this model were CRP≤13.9 mg/L,abdominal pain time≤22 h,appendix diameter≤10 mm,no drainage tube placed,and postoperative VAS score≤2.5(all P<0.05).The area under the curve of the prediction model was 0.905(95%CI:0.845～0.966),and the calibration chart indicated that the predicted probability of the model was in good agreement with the ac-tual probability,and the decision curve showed good clinical benefit.Conclusion:It is safe and feasible for college stu-dents to receive day surgery mode of laparoscopic appendectomy.The created nomogram model has good predictive ability,which can identify eligible patients as early as possible,and take timely intervention measures to improve the achievement rate.

A retrospective analysis was made on clinical data of a child with osteopathia striata with cranial sclerosis (OS-CS) diagnosed in the Department of Neonatology, Children′s Hospital Affiliated to Shandong University in January 2024.The proband was admitted to hospital due to premature delivery at 30 + 2 weeks, shortness of breath and poor response for 13 days after resuscitation.After birth, the child had no spontaneous breathing with floppy limbs.Tracheal intubation was required for positive pressure ventilation.Cranial ultrasound showed right subventricular hemorrhage with bilateral intraventricular hemorrhage and bilateral parieto-occipital subdural hemorrhage; cardiac ultrasound showed patent ductus arteriosus and tricuspid regurgitation; scrotal ultrasound showed bilateral inguinal cryptorchidism with right testicular hydrocele; gastrointestinal ultrasound showed that the lumen of the transverse colon was filled with many fecal matters with strong echoes.Whole exome sequencing(WES) indicated that the proband carried a hemizygous variant of c. 1489C>T(p.Arg497 *) in the AMER1 gene, which was inherited from his mother, as verified by Sanger sequencing.The hemizygous variant of c. 1489C>T(p.Arg497 *) in the AMER1 gene was rated as likely pathogenic (PVS1+ PM2-Supporting) according to the American College of Medical Genetics and Genomics(ACMG) guidelines, which was not included in the Human Gene Mutation Database(HGMD) database.High-throughput sequencing identified the hemizygous variant of c. 1489C>T(p.Arg497 *) in the AMER1 gene as the genetic etiology of the proband.This was the first report of AMER1 gene variant leading to OS-CS in China.The study enriches the variation spectrum and clinical phenotype spectrum of the AMER1 gene, providing a valuable foundation for clinical diagnosis, treatment, and subsequent research of the disease.

This consensus was developed by the Orthodontic Society of the Chinese Stomatological Association to provide a systematic, scientific, and practical guideline for informed consent in orthodontic care. Orthodontic treatment is typically lengthy, highly individualized, and involves multiple factors such as growth and development, occlusal function, and facial esthetics. Rapid technological advances and diverse risk profiles make the traditional reliance on orthodontist experience or institutional templates insufficient to ensure patients′ full understanding and autonomous decision-making. To address this, the expert panel conducted extensive reviews of domestic and international guidelines, analyzed representative dispute cases, and performed multicenter patient-clinician surveys. Using a multi-round Delphi method, the group established a standardized informed consent framework covering the initial consultation, treatment, and retention phases. The consensus emphasizes that informed consent is not only a fundamental legal and ethical requirement but also a key step in building trust, improving patient compliance, and enhancing treatment satisfaction. Orthodontists should clearly and comprehensively explain treatment plans, potential risks, uncertainties, and associated costs, while respecting the autonomy of patients or guardians, and maintain continuous communication and dynamic evaluation throughout the treatment process. The release of this consensus provides unified and authoritative guidance for clinical orthodontics, helping to standardize informed consent, enhance its transparency, safeguard patient rights, reduce medical risks, and promote high-quality, sustainable development of orthodontic practice.

Objective:To explore the risk fall death associated with compound hot extremes.Methods:This study collected data on fall deaths in Guangdong, Hunan, and Zhejiang Provinces from 2013 to 2018 and matched their exposure to meteorological data. Based on a time-stratified case-crossover design, a conditional logistic regression model embedded with a cross-basis function of the distributed lag nonlinear model was applied to estimate the risk of fall to death due to compound hot extremes.Results:Compared with regular days, compound hot extremes significantly increased the risk of death from falls ( OR=1.19, 95% CI: 1.09-1.30), and women ( OR=1.27, 95% CI: 1.11-1.45) and the elderly age 65 and above ( OR=1.24, 95% CI: 1.12-1.39) were more sensitive to compound hot extremes. The maximum duration of compound hot extremes was 7 days, and the maximum intensity was 6.2 ℃, and the duration and intensity were proportional to the risk of death from falls. The risk of death from falls increased by 12% ( OR=1.12, 95% CI: 1.06-1.18) each day, increasing in duration after linearization. The risk of death from falls increased by 16% ( OR=1.16, 95% CI: 1.10-1.22) for each 1 ℃ increase in linearized intensity. Conclusion:Compound hot extremes increase the risk of death cases from falls.
