ObjectiveTo focused on patients with unexplained repeated implantation failure （URIF） and compare the clinical efficacy of different administration routes of granulocyte colony-stimulating factor （G-CSF） in patients undergoing frozen-thawed embryo transfer cycles. MethodsA retrospective case-control study was conducted. A total of 187 patients with URIF who received medical treatment were enrolled in this study. According to whether G-CSF was used on the day of endometrial transformation and its administration route in frozen-thawed embryo transfer cycles， the patients were divided into three groups： control group （without G-CSF， n=71）， subcutaneous injection group （subcutaneous G-CSF， n=72）， and intrauterine infusion group （intrauterine G-CSF infusion， n=44）. The pregnancy outcomes among the three groups were compared， and Logistic regression analysis was performed. ResultsThere were significant differences in biochemical pregnancy rates among the three groups （P<0.05）， indicating statistical significance in the overall comparison. In terms of numerical trend， the biochemical pregnancy rate was in the order： subcutaneous injection group > intrauterine infusion group > control group. Further pairwise comparison showed that only the difference between the subcutaneous injection group and the control group was statistically significant （P<0.017）， while no significant differences were found between the other groups （P>0.017）. The overall comparison of early miscarriage rates among the three groups also showed a significant difference （P<0.05）， indicating a statistically significant difference in the distribution among the groups. The numerical trend was： intrauterine perfusion group > subcutaneous injection group > control group. Pairwise comparison results showed that only the difference between the intrauterine perfusion group and the control group was statistically significant （P<0.017）， while there was no statistically significant difference between any other two groups （P>0.017）.Multivariate Logistic regression analysis showed that endometrial thickness on the day of transformation， number of transferred embryos， and subcutaneous G-CSF injection were independent factors associated with an increased biochemical pregnancy rate， where as age was an independent factor for a decreased biochemical pregnancy rate. For clinical pregnancy outcome， endometrial thickness on the day of transformation， number of transferred embryos， and subcutaneous G-CSF injection were also independent factors for an increased clinical pregnancy rate， while BMI was an independent factor for a decreased clinical pregnancy rate. ConclusionSubcutaneous injection of G-CSF only improved the biochemical pregnancy rate in URIF patients. Multivariate Logistic regression analysis showed that subcutaneous G-CSF injection was a favorable factor for clinical pregnancy rate in URIF patients； however， no significant improvement in clinical pregnancy rate was observed among the three groups. Both the comparison of pregnancy outcomes and the results of multivariate logistic regression analysis indicates that intrauterine perfusion of G-CSF has no significant therapeutic effect in the treatment of patients with URIF.

Objective: To evaluate oral health status and knowledge, attitude and practice (KAP) among third grade primary school students after the implementation of the Comprehensive Intervention Project for Childhood Oral Diseases in Guizhou Province, so as to provide evidence for program optimization. Methods: Using a multistage cluster sampling method, oral examinations and questionnaire surveys were conducted among third grade primary school students in schools covered by the Comprehensive Intervention Project for Childhood Oral Diseases in Guizhou Province (intervention group, n =1 030) and schools not covered by the program (control group， n =1 130) in November 2023. A follow up survey was conducted one year after the project s implementation (December 2024) to evaluate the differences in oral health status and KAP between the two groups. The t-test and χ 2 test were used to compare means and rates, respectively. Results: One year after implementation, the permanent caries prevalence, caries filling ratio, mean dmft/DMFT, and mean simplified debris index in the intervention group were 33.3%, 22.3 %, 3.44±3.10, 0.77±0.56, which were all better than those in the control group (39.8%, 17.3%, 3.89±2.85, and 0.87± 0.63 ) ( χ 2/ t =9.87, 8.78, -2.59, -3.91,all P <0.05). After intervention, the levels of oral health knowledge, attitude and behaviors in the intervention group were better than those in the control group ( Z =7.69, 2.35, 2.10, all P <0.05). Except for the item "fluoride has no protective effect on teeth", the correct response rates of other oral health knowledge items in the intervention group were higher than those in the control group ( χ 2=3.92-163.94, all P <0.05). The reported rates of tooth brushing related behaviors and sugary beverage consumption were higher in the intervention group than in the control group ( χ 2=4.02-11.42，all P <0.05). Conclusions The Comprehensive Intervention Project for Childhood Oral Diseases improves children s oral health status, oral health knowledge, and some oral health behaviors, but has limited effects on some behaviors and oral health attitudes. Future efforts should focus on the factors influencing the transformation of children s oral health attitudes and behaviors, along with strengthening long term follow up evaluations.

Objective: To investigate the urban and rural differences in adverse outcomes of pulmonary tuberculosis (PTB) in patients with pulmonary tuberculosis-diabetes mellitus comorbidity (PTB-DM), so as to provide insights into improving the prevention and treatment measures for PTB-DM. Methods: Patients with PTB-DM who were admitted and discharged from 14 designated tuberculosis hospitals in Hangzhou City from 2018 to 2022 were selected. Basic information, and history of diagnosis and treatment were collected through hospital information systems. The adverse outcomes of PTB were defined as endpoints, and the proportions of adverse outcomes of PTB in urban and rural patients with PTB-DM were analyzed. Factors affecting the adverse outcomes of PTB were identified using a multivariable Cox proportional hazards regression model. Results: A total of 823 patients with PTB-DM were enrolled, including 354 (43.01%) urban and 469 (56.99%) rural patients. There were 112 (13.61%) patients with adverse outcomes of PTB. The proportions of adverse outcomes of PTB in urban and rural patients were 14.41% and 13.01%, respectively, with no statistically significant difference (P>0.05). Multivariable Cox proportional hazards regression analysis identified first diagnosed in county-level hospitals or above (HR=2.107, 95%CI: 1.181-3.758) and drug resistance (HR=3.303, 95%CI: 1.653-6.600) as the risk factors for adverse outcomes of PTB in urban patients with PTB-DM, while the treatment/observed management throughout the process (HR=0.470, 95%CI: 0.274-0.803) and fixed-dose combinations throughout the process (HR=0.331, 95%CI: 0.151-0.729) as the protective factors for adverse outcomes in rural patients with PTB-DM. Conclusions There are differences in influencing factors for adverse outcomes of PTB in urban and rural patients with PTB-DM. The adverse outcomes of PTB are associated with first diagnosed hospitals and drug resistance in urban patients, and are associated with the treatment/observed management and fixed-dose combinations throughout the process in rural patients.

BACKGROUND:Traditional methods of urinary tract reconstruction are limited by donor scarcity,high complication rates,and suboptimal functional recovery.Tissue engineering strategies offer new directions in this field.Since the urinary tract is mainly composed of muscle tissue,the key is to find suitable seed cells and efficiently induce them to differentiate into smooth muscle cells.Comparative studies on the efficacy of different smooth muscle cell induction regimens are still lacking. OBJECTIVE:To isolate,culture,and identify human urine-derived stem cells,and to compare the effects of two different induction protocols. METHODS:Human urine-derived stem cells were isolated from urine samples of 11 healthy adult volunteers by multiple centrifugations.Surface markers were identified by flow cytometry.The multi-directional differentiation potential of human urine-derived stem cells was verified through osteogenic and adipogenic differentiation.Differentiation was induced by transforming growth factor-β1 or transforming growth factor-β1 combined with platelet derived growth factor for 14 days.Immunofluorescence staining and western blot assay were employed to compare the expression differences of smooth muscle-specific proteins(α-SMA and SM22). RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:(1)Urine-derived stem cells were successfully isolated from the eight urine samples of healthy people.These cells exhibit a"rice grain"-like morphology and possess a robust proliferative capacity.(2)Urine-derived stem cells exhibited high expression of mesenchymal stem cell surface markers(CD73,CD90,and CD44)and extremely low expression of hematopoietic stem cell surface markers(CD34 and CD45).These cells did not express CD19,CD105,and HLA-DR.(3)After osteogenic and adipogenic differentiation,the formation of calcium nodules and lipid droplets was observed,with positive staining results from Alizarin Red S and Oil Red O staining.(4)After 14 days of smooth muscle induction culture,immunofluorescence staining revealed that the smooth muscle differentiation rate of urine-derived stem cells treated with a combination of transforming growth factor-β1 and platelet derived growth factor was significantly higher compared to those treated with transforming growth factor-β1 alone(P<0.005).(5)After 14 days of smooth muscle induction culture,western blot assay further demonstrated that the expression levels of α-SMA and SM22 in the transforming growth factor-β1/platelet derived growth factor group were significantly elevated compared to those in the transforming growth factor-β1 only group(P<0.005).These findings confirm that urine-derived stem cells can be non-invasively isolated using multiple rounds of centrifugation.Compared with transforming growth factor-β1 alone,the combination of transforming growth factor-β1 and platelet derived growth factor can improve the efficiency of inducing urine-derived stem cells to differentiate into smooth muscle cells.

ObjectiveTo improve the accuracy of discrete element method in simulating the processing of traditional Chinese medicine（TCM） powder system under low shear conditions. MethodsIn this study， extract powders of Tongsaimai tablets and Qige granules were used as the research objects， the angle of repose（AOR） and effective angle of internal friction of the two materials were determined by AOR test method and shear cell test method. Based on the Hertz-Mindlin with JKR V2 contact model and particle scaling theory， taking the particle-particle restitution coefficient（A）， particle-particle static friction coefficient（B）， particle-particle rolling friction coefficient（C）， particle-steel restitution coefficient（D）， particle-steel static friction coefficient（E）， particle-steel rolling friction coefficient（F） and Johnson-Kendall-Roberts（JKR） surface energy（G） as test factors， the simulated contact parameters of Tongsaimai tablets extract powder were first calibrated with a single reference value using AOR as the reference value， and then the simulated contact parameters of Tongsaimai tablets extract powder as well as Qige granules extract powder were co-calibrated with AOR and effective angle of internal friction as the joint reference value， respectively. Then， Plackett-Burman design was used to screen the critical contact parameters that have a significant effect on the simulated reference value， and the steepest ascent design was used to determine the optimal range of the critical contact parameters， finally， the regression model between the critical contact parameters and the simulated reference values was established through the design of the response surface test， and the critical contact parameters were calibrated based on the regression model and the desirability function approach. ResultsThe optimal combination of discrete elemental contact parameters A-G for Tongsaimai tablets extract powder under a single reference value was 0.100， 0.718， 0.616， 0.100， 0.400， 0.250 and 0.075 J·m^-2， which was validated to have relative errors of 0.10% and -8.64% for the simulated AOR and the simulated effective angle of internal friction， respectively. And the optimal combination of discrete elemental contact parameters A-G for Tongsaimai tablets extract powder at the joint reference values was 0.100， 0.682， 0.598， 0.100， 0.521， 0.294 and 0.075 J·m^-2， which was verified to have relative errors of 0.10% and -0.18% for the simulated AOR and the simulated effective angle of internal friction， respectively. The optimal combination of discrete elemental contact parameters A-G for Qige granules extract powder at the joint reference values was 0.150， 0.370， 0.330， 0.150， 0.500， 0.500 and 0.100 J·m^-2， which was verified to have relative errors of 2.70% and -1.30% for the simulated AOR and the simulated effective angle of internal friction， respectively. Compared with the single reference value method， the joint calibration method not only increased the number of the critical contact parameters for characterizing particle-device interactions， but also was more accurate and reliable. ConclusionCompared with the results of single reference value calibration， the results obtained by the method of joint calibration of discrete element simulation contact parameters with AOR and effective angle of internal friction as the reference values are more accurate， which can provide more accurate and reliable simulation physical property data for the simulation experiments of TCM extract powder under low shear process conditions.

Objective To investigate the spectrum-efficacy relationship between the fingerprint of green tea extract and its pharmacological effects in intervention of neovascular age-related macular degeneration(nAMD),explore the phar-macodynamic material basis,and identify key active components.Methods The fingerprint of green tea extract was es-tablished using UPLC-Q-Exactive Orbitrap MS.Hierarchical cluster analysis and orthogonal partial least squares discrimi-nant analysis were used to explore differences in chemical composition among green tea samples from different origins.A zebrafish nAMD model induced by cobalt chloride was established to evaluate the pharmacological activity of green tea ex-tract in nAMD intervention.Partial least squares regression analysis(PLSR)and grey relational analysis(GRA)were em-ployed to study the spectrum-efficacy correlation,comprehensively analyze the pharmacodynamic material basis of green tea in AMD intervention,and screen for key active components.Results A fingerprint detection method for green tea ex-tract was successfully established,and 31 chemical components were qualitatively and quantitatively characterized.Hierar-chical cluster analysis and orthogonal partial least squares discriminant analysis classified 50 batches of green tea samples into two major categories,identifying 15 key differential components.Pharmacological experiments demonstrated that green tea extract inhibited abnormal vascular growth in the zebrafish retina caused by cobalt chloride.Through PLSR and GRA,six components of green tea extract were found to be significantly correlated with pharmacological activity and showed high variable importance in projection:quinic acid,epicatechin,gallocatechin,epigallocatechin,gallocatechin gal-late,and epigallocatechin gallate.Conclusion This study comprehensively characterized 31 chemical components in green tea.Based on the nAMD zebrafish model and spectrum-effect correlation theory,PLSR and GRA analyses were ap-plied to accurately identify quinic acid,epicatechin,gallocatechin,epigallocatechin,gallocatechin gallate,and epigallocate-chin gallate as the key effective substances in green tea for intervening in nAMD.This provides a foundation for the devel-opment of new drugs with therapeutic potential against nAMD,and offers data support for establishing a comprehensive quality evaluation system for green tea.

Body weight abnormalities, including overweight, obesity, and underweight, have become a dual public health challenge in Chinese adults: overweight and obesity lead to a variety of chronic complications, while underweight increases the risks of malnutrition, sarcopenia, and organ dysfunction. To systematically address these issues, multidisciplinary experts in endocrinology, sports science, nutrition, and psychiatry from various regions have held multiple weight management seminars. Based on the latest epidemiological data and clinical evidence, they expanded the guideline to include assessment and intervention strategies for underweight, in addition to the core content of obesity management. This guideline outlines the etiological mechanisms, evaluation methods, and multidimensional management strategies for overweight and obesity, covering key areas such as diagnosis and assessment, medical nutrition therapy, exercise prescription, pharmacological intervention, and psychological support. It is intended to provide a scientific and standardized approach to weight management across the adult population, aiming to curb the rising prevalence of obesity, mitigate complications associated with abnormal body weight, and improve nutritional status and overall quality of life.

Objective:To summarize the clinical characteristics of elderly patients with stage Ⅰ diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL) and analyze the factors associated with prognosis.Methods:A case series study was conducted by retrospectively collecting clinical data from patients aged over 60 years with newly diagnosed stage Ⅰ DLBCL across 20 medical centers in Jiangsu Province, China, between June 2010 and April 2023. The involved site, classification and treatment plan were summarized. The primary endpoints were progression-free survival (PFS) and overall survival (OS). Statistical analyses were performed using the Kaplan-Meier method, and Cox regression model.Results:The study included 255 patients with a median age of 69 years, of whom 130 (51.0%) were male, 66 (25.9%) were aged ≥75 years and 26 (10.1%) had a high Charlson Comorbidity Index (CCI) score of ≥2. Extranodal involvement was observed in 163 (63.9%) patients, with the stomach (37.4%, 61/163), intestine (19.0%, 31/163), testes (11.0%, 18/163), and breast (7.4%, 12/163) being the most frequently affected sites. The non-germinal center B-cell (non-GCB) subtype was prevalent in 63.7% of patients (142/223), with no significant difference between the nodal and extranodal groups ( P=0.681). Furthermore, 73.9% (184/249) and 11.7% (29/249) of patients received the R-CHOP (rituximab, cyclophosphamide, doxorubicin, vincristine, prednisone) and R-miniCHOP regimen, respectively. The overall 3-year PFS rate was 81.5%, and the 3-year OS rate was 85.6%. Patients aged ≥75 years ( HR=2.910, 95% CI 1.565-5.408, P=0.001) and/or with a CCI score ≥2 ( HR=2.324, 95% CI 1.141-4.732, P=0.020) had a significantly poorer PFS. Incorporating age ≥75 years and CCI score ≥2 into the stage-modified international prognostic index (sm-IPI) can better stratify the prognosis of elderly patients with stage Ⅰ DLBCL. The 3-year PFS rate was 48.7% in the high-risk group versus 85.7% in the low-risk group ( P<0.001). Conclusions:Our findings show that the elderly patients with stage Ⅰ DLBCL were predominantly characterized by extranodal involvement (particularly in the stomach and intestinal tract) and non-GCB subtype. Age ≥75 years and CCI ≥2 were identified as independent prognostic factors. The newly established sm-IPI-75-CCI incorporating these factors demonstrated superior prognostic discrimination compared to conventional risk assessment systems.

Objective:This study aims to develop a rapid identification technique for various genotypes of extended-spectrum β-lactamase (ESBL) producing Escherichia coli using matrix-assisted laser desorption/ionization-time of flight mass spectrometry (MALDI-TOF MS) in conjunction with machine learning algorithms. Methods:A total of 158 Escherichia coli strains were isolated from the clinical laboratory of the First Hospital of Jilin University from August 2018 to December 2022. Polymerase chain reaction (PCR) was employed to detect the CTX-M-1, CTX-M-8, CTX-M-9, and SHV genes. Mass spectral data of the bacterial strains were acquired by MALDI-TOF MS with a cooperative matrix of (E)-propyl α-cyano-4-hydroxycinnamate (CHCA-C3). Models based on random forest (RF), logistic regression (LR), and support vector machine (SVM) algorithms were constructed. The performance of the constructed models was evaluated using metrics including accuracy, sensitivity, specificity, and the area under the receiver operating characteristic curve (AUC). Mass spectral peaks exhibiting sensitivity and specificity exceeding 80% in the models were designated as characteristic peaks. To validate the efficacy of the cooperative matrix of CHCA-C3, clinical isolates of ESBL-producing Escherichia coli were analyzed by MALDI-TOF MS using the conventional CHCA matrix for comparative purposes. Results:Among the 158 strains of Escherichia coli, 91 strains produced ESBL, all of which were CTX-M genotype. The AUC values for the respective models were as follows: CTX-M-1 genotype exhibited AUC values of 0.98 for LR, 1.00 for RF, and 0.73 for SVM; CTX-M-9 genotype exhibited AUC values of 0.93 for LR, 0.99 for RF, and 0.76 for SVM; for CTX-M-8, all models achieved an AUC of 1.00, indicating excellent classification performance with respect to accuracy, specificity, and sensitivity. The characteristic mass spectral peaks associated with each genotype included: CTX-M-1 genotype at m/z 6 390; CTX-M-8 genotype at m/z 5 224, m/z 5 393, and m/z 9 021; CTX-M-9 genotype at m/z 5 161 and m/z 5 273. In the MALDI-TOF MS analysis conducted with the conventional CHCA matrix, the characteristic peak at m/z 9 021 for CTX-M-8 was the only one detected, with the characteristic peaks for CTX-M-1 and CTX-M-9 remaining undetected. Conclusion:The application of cooperative matrix of CHCA-C3 in conjunction with MALDI-TOF MS and machine learning algorithms facilitates the rapid and precise identification of extended-spectrum β-lactamase (ESBL)-producing Escherichia coli. This approach offers a feasible solution for evidence-based clinical therapy and the control of healthcare-associated infections.
