Objective:To evaluate the predictive value of simplified geriatric assessment (sGA) in elderly Chinese patients diagnosed with diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL) .Methods:It retrospectively analyzed the relationships of sGA with the clinical characteristics, outcome, and prognosis of 219 patients aged ≥60 years who were newly diagnosed with DLBCL at six hospitals in Jiangsu province between January 2018 and December 2022.Results:The median age of 219 patients was 68 years (60-87 years). According to the sGA system criteria, 101 (46.1%), 103 (47.0%), and 15 (6.8%) elderly patients with DLBCL were categorized as fit, unfit, and frail, respectively. The most common adverse reactions after chemotherapy were hematologic, and the incidence of grade >2 hematologic adverse reactions was similar among the three groups (47.5% vs 41.7% vs 46.7%, respectively; χ2=0.712, P=0.700). Compared with the fit and unfit groups, the frail group showed tendencies toward for higher proportions of grade >2 gastrointestinal, pulmonary, and infectious adverse reactions ( P>0.05 for all). The fit, unfit, and frail groups had respective remission rates of 74.3%, 46.6%, and 20.0% ( χ2=25.249, P<0.001) ; disease progression rates of 5.9%, 11.7%, and 26.7% ( χ2=6.763, P<0.05) ; 2-year overall survival rates of 92.1% (95% CI 86.6% to 97.9%), 77.6% (95% CI 69.5% to 86.6%), and 70.1% (95% CI 49.4% to 99.6%) ( P<0.05) ; and 2-year progression-free survival rates of 76.8% (95% CI 67.0% to 84.8%), 69.7% (95% CI 61.8% to 82.0%), and 65.7% (95% CI 53.3% to 100%) ( P=0.399) . Conclusion:sGA can effectively predict treatment adverse effects and efficacy, disease progression, and long-term survival in elderly DLBCL.

Objective:To investigate the mechanism of Compound Mufurong Nasal Ointment in interfering with allergic rhinitis in young rats based on the Th1/Th2 cytokines and c-jun N-terminal kinase (JNK) signaling pathway.Methods:Totally 60 young SD male rats were divided into normal group, model group, experimental group, Western medicine group, and combination group according to random number table method, with 12 rats in each group. Except for the normal group, allergic rhinitis rat models were prepared by intraperitoneal injection of ovalbumin and nasal instillation of ovalbumin sensitization in all other groups of rats. After successful modeling, the normal group and the model group were given 0.9% sodium chloride injection 50 μl nasal drip, and the experimental group, the Western medicine group and the combination group were given compound Mufurong Nasal Ointment, fluticasone propionate nasal spray, compound Mufurong Nasal Ointment and fluticasone propionate nasal spray respectively. HE staining was used to observe the pathological morphology of nasal mucosal tissue; ELISA method was used to detect the levels of total IgE, interferon - γ (IFN - γ), IL-1 β, and IL-4 in the serum and nasal lavage fluid of rats in each group; Western blot was used to detect the expressions of JNK and p-JNK proteins in nasal tissues of rats in each group; Immunohistochemistry was used to detect the expressions of p-JNK and p-c-Jun proteins in nasal mucosal tissue.Results:Compared with model group, the levels of IgE, IL-1β and IL-4 in serum and nasal lavage solution of experimental group, western medicine group and combination group decreased ( P<0.05), IFN-γ level increased ( P<0.05); the expressions of JNK and p-JNK protein decreased ( P<0.05), and the expressions of p-JNK and p-c-Jun decreased ( P<0.05). Conclusion:Compound Mufurong Nasal Ointment may regulate Th1/Th2 cytokines through the JNK signaling pathway, inhibit Th2 over-expression, thereby reducing IgE, IL-1 β, IL-4 levels in serum and nasal lavage fluid, up-regulating IFN - γ levels, and intervening in the occurrence of allergic rhinitis.

Objective:To explore the personality latent profiles of university first-year students and examine their associations with demographic characteristics,psychological symptoms,and major satisfaction.Methods:A to-tal of 52 783 first-year university students were assessed with the Minnesota Multiphasic Personality Inventory(MMPI),Beck Depression Inventory,Beck Anxiety Inventory,self-developed major satisfaction item and demo-graphic checklist.Data were analyzed with potential profile model,chi-square test,multiple logistic regression,co-variance analysis and median test.Results:Five latent profiles of MMPI among university freshmen were found,namely gender conflict group(23.4％),real healthy group(27.9％),defensive healthy group(37.3％),borderline-psychosis risk group(6.7％)and neurosis risk group(4.8％).Gender,grade period,childhood up bringers,par-ents'marital status and family atmosphere predicted differences between profiles of MMPI.Different profiles showed statistically meaningful differences at depressive symptoms,anxiety symptoms and major satisfaction.Conclusion:The latent profiles of MMPI among first-year university students demonstrate distinct classification patterns,diffe-ring demographic characteristics and psychologically problematic levels.

[Objective]To investigate the regulatory effect and potential mechanisms of isocitrate dehydrogenase 3A(IDH3A)on cardiomyocyte hypertrophy.[Methods]The expression of IDH3A in the myocardium of healthy volunteers(n=10)and patients with heart failure(HF)(n=10),and in the myocardium of mice subjected to transverse aortic constriction(TAC)surgery and sham operation,as well as in phenylephrine(PE)-induced neonatal rat ventricular cardiomyocytes(NRVCs),was assessed by real-time quantitative polymerase chain reaction(RT-qPCR)and Western blot assay.The effect of adenovirus-mediated overexpression of IDH3A on the expression of hypertrophy-related genes in PE-induced NRVCs was also evaluated.The effect of IDH3A on NRVCs area was examined by phalloidin staining assay.A mutant of IDH3A with abolished enzymatic activity,IDH3A_D208A,was generated through site-directed mutagenesis.The impact of this IDH3A mutant on the hypertrophic phenotype,ATP and ROS levels in NRVCs was evaluated to investigate whether the regulatory role of IDH3A in cardiomyocyte hypertrophy was dependent on its enzymatic activity.The effect of exogenous α-ketoglutaric acid(AKG)on cardiomyocyte hypertrophy was also detected by Western blot and phalloidin staining assay,respectively.[Results]IDH3A was significantly decreased in the myocardium of HF patients,in the myocardium of TAC-operated mice,and in PE-induced NRVCs(P=0.005 2,P=0.026 6,P=0.041 3 and P=0.006 6,respectively).Overexpression of IDH3A markedly suppressed the expression of hypertrophy-related genes and the increase of cell size of PE-induced NRVCs(P<0.000 1,P=0.000 1 and P=0.000 2,respectively).The ATP and ROS analysis indicated that IDH3A inhibited the increases of ATP and ROS levels in PE-induced NRVCs(P=0.001 2 and P<0.000 1,respectively),whereas the enzymatically inactive IDH3A mutant lacked this effect.Exogenous AKG provision could,but overexpression of IDH3A mutant failed to suppress PE-induced NRVCs hypertrophy.[Conclusion]IDH3A inhibits cardiomyocyte hypertrophy via elevating AKG level,providing scientific evidence for study on IDH3A-based treatment of cardiac hypertrophy.

Objective:To investigate the relationship between thyroid autoimmunity and pregnancy outcome in patients with unexplained recurrent abortion.Methods:A retrospective cohort study of 354 patients with normal thyroid function with recurrent abortion of unknown cause admitted to Sun Yat-sen Memorial Hospital, Sun Yat-sen University from January 2015 to June 2022 was used to detect thyroid antibody and thyroid function levels during pregnancy or early pregnancy. They were divided into TAI group ( n=144) and non-TAI group ( n=210) according to whether thyroid autoimmunity (TAI) was complicated or not. Tracking pregnancy outcomes. Results:Compared with the non-TAI group, the TAI group had a higher proportion of pregnancy outcomes resulting in miscarriage [42.4%(61/144) vs 27.1%(57/210), P=0.004]. In patients with unexplained recurrent abortion, TAI significantly increased the risk of spontaneous abortion [ OR(95% CI): 2.13(1.34, 3.41), P=0.001]. Positive TPOAb or TgAb also increased the risk of spontaneous abortion [ OR(95% CI): 2.18(1.37, 3.50), P=0.001; OR(95% CI): 2.33(1.31, 4.13), P=0.004]. TAI, TPOAb and TgAb had no significant interaction with age ( P=0.482, 0.724, 0.740). Conclusions:TAI is positively associated with the risk of spontaneous abortion in patients with unexplained recurrent abortion. TAI may be a potential risk factor for unexplained recurrent abortion, expanding the diagnosis and treatment of unexplained recurrent abortion.

Objective　To understand the impact of early and timely treatment and initial antiviral treatment regimen on mortality and attrition of antiretroviral therapy. Methods A retrospective cohort study was conducted using download data on antiretroviral therapy for HIV-infected patients in Liuzhou City, Guangxi Province, from the database of the Basic Information System for AIDS Control and Prevention (BISAC) from 2010 to 2020. The Cox proportional risk regression model was used to analyze the influencing factors of mortality and attrition. Results A total of 15 713 infected patients were included, including 53.4% aged 18-<50 years, 69.4% male, 61.0% farmer, 75.1% CD4 count <350 cells /μL before initial antiviral treatment, the overall mortality rate was 4.30/100 person-years, and the overall attrition was 2.42/100 person-years. The results of Cox regression analysis showed that the influencing factors of mortality were pretreatment CD4 counts of 350-<500 cells/μL(AHR=0.72, 95%CI: 0.63-0.81) and ≥500 cells/μL (AHR= 0.64, 95%CI: 0.55-0.76); duration from diagnosis to initial antiviral treatment 91-180 days (AHR=1.25, 95%CI: 1.08-1.45), 181-365 days (AHR=1.26, 95%CI: 1.08-1.47), and ≥365 days (AHR=1.26, 95%CI: 1.11-1.44); initial antiviral treatment regimens of D4T+3TC+EFV/NVP (AHR=1.47, 95%CI: 1.32-1.63) and AZT/D4T/TDF+3TC+LPV/r (AHR=1.73, 95%CI: 1.50-1.99). Factors affecting attrition were pretreatment CD4 counts of 350-499 cells/μL (AHR=1.32, 95%CI: 1.16-1.50) and ≥500 cells/μL (AHR=1.28, 95%CI: 1.10-1.50); interval from HIV positivity confirmation to initial dosing ≥365 days (AHR=1.21, 95%CI: 1.04-1.40), initial antiviral treatment regimens of TDF+3TC+NVP (AHR=1.32, 95%CI: 1.13-1.55), AZT+3TC+EFV/NVP (AHR=1.43, 95%CI: 1.26-1.62) and AZT/D4T/TDF+3TC+LPV/r (AHR=1.33, 95CI%: 1.06-1.67). Conclusions　Early and timely treatment and the initial antiviral treatment regimen of TDF+3TC+EFV have good efficacy, but attention should be paid to the high risk of attrition of HIV-infected people with high CD4 count before treatment.

Objective:To explore the role of navigation-assisted valgus stress method in avoiding excessive correction of lower limb mechanical axis after high tibial osteotomy (HTO).Methods:A retrospective study was carried out on osteoarthritis (OA) patients who were treated with HTO for medial compartment pain of knee from January 2020 to March 2022 in the Department of Joint Surgery, Shanghai Changhai Hospital, the First Affiliated Hospital of Naval Medical University. According to the different ways of confirming alignment during operation, they were divided into computer navigation assisted valgus stress HTO group (referred to as navigation group) and traditional rod fluoroscopy HTO group (referred to as traditional group). There were 28 patients in the navigation group, 10 males and 18 females, with age of 54.4±9.1 years (range, 41-73 years) and body mass index of 26.1±3.3 kg/m 2 (range, 19.8-35.2 kg/m 2); There were 30 patients in the traditional group, 13 males and 17 females, aged 56.9±8.5 years (range, 40-70 years), with a body mass index of 25.7±4.0 kg/m 2 (range, 19.2-32.9 kg/m 2). Measuring the mechanical femoral tibial angle (mFTA), joint line convergence angle (JLCA), medial proximal tibial angle (MPTA), Lysholm score and Hospital for Special Surgery (HSS) score before operation and at the last follow-up of the two groups, and conduct statistical analysis. Results:Both groups were followed up. The follow-up time of navigation group and traditional group was 21.3±8.7 months and 22.5±7.6 months, respectively, with no significant difference ( t=0.53, P=0.596). There were significant differences between the two groups in the amount of mechanical axis correction (ΔmFTA) and the amount of bone correction (ΔMPTA) ( t=2.09, P=0.041; t=2.58, P=0.012), while there was no significant difference in ΔJLCA ( t=0.32, P=0.753). In the navigation group, there were 9 cases (32%) of undercorrection, 17 cases (61%) with acceptable alignment, and 2 cases (7%) with over correction, while in the traditional group, there were 5 cases (17%) with under correction, 13 cases (43%) with acceptable alignment, and 12 cases (40%) with over correction. There was significant difference in the distribution rate of alignment between the two groups ( P=0.012), and the rate of overcorrection in the navigation group was significantly lower than that in the control group (7% vs. 40%, P=0.005). The intra group correlation coefficient between the navigation correction mechanical axis and ΔmFTA was 0.787. There was no significant difference in Lysholm score and HSS score between the two groups before and after surgery (all P>0.05), and they were significantly improved after operation (all P<0.05). Conclusion:Navigation-assisted valgus stress method HTO is reliable, which can accurately achieve the target alignment, reduce the incidence of over correction, and obtain good clinical results.
