Objective:To observe the pregnancy outcomes of patients with unexplained recurrent spontaneous abortion (URSA) after interventional treatment or expectant treatment.Methods:This prospective study followed up 398 patients with recurrent spontaneous abortion from March 2017 to September 2022 in seven hospitals. Among them, 267 patients were diagnosed with URSA, including 124 patients who were initially diagnosed in the interventional treatment hospital and 143 patients who were initially diagnosed in the expectant treatment hospital. All URSA patients were followed up for 33 months. Ongoing pregnancy rates were observed as main outcome indicators.Results:A total of 127 patients became pregnant, and 107 of them had sustained pregnancies, the ongoing pregnancy rate was 84.25% (107/127). The ongoing pregnancy rate was 86.11% (31/36) in the interventional treatment group and 83.52% (76/91) in the expectant treatment group, with no significant difference ( P>0.05). During the follow-up, the ongoing pregnancy rates in the interventional treatment hospital and the expectant treatment hospital were 75.71% (53/70) and 94.74% (54/57), respectively, with a significant difference ( P<0.05). The ongoing pregnancy rate after interventional treatment in the interventional treatment hospital was 82.76% (24/29), which was similar to the 94.00% (47/50) after expectant treatment in the expectant treatment hospital ( P>0.05). Conclusion:The ongoing pregnancy rate of interventional treatment for URSA patients has not been significantly improved, suggesting that it may not be necessary to carry out this treatment.

Objective Exploring the application effect of fragmented resistance exercise in the exercise rehabili-tation of elderly patients with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease,providing references for improving their quality of life.Methods From October to December 2024,96 elderly patients with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease admitted to a tertiary hospital in Pingdingshan city were conveniently selected as the research subjects.They were randomly divided into an experimental group and a control group(all n=48)using a random number table method.The experimental group received a fragmented resistance exercise program on the basis of routine pulmonary reha-bilitation,while the control group received routine pulmonary rehabilitation nursing care for a duration of 3 months.The lung function,exercise endurance,quality of life,and exercise compliance were compared between the 2 groups before and after intervention.Results The experimental group ultimately included 46 cases,while the control group ultimately included 47 cases.The lung function of the experimental group was better than that of the control group after 3 months of intervention(P＜0.05),and the exercise compliance scores of the experimental group were high-er than those of the control group after 1 and 3 months of intervention(P＜0.001).Repeated measures ANOVA showed that there was an interaction effect(P＜0.05)in the comparison of exercise endurance and quality of life between the 2 groups.Simple effects analysis showed that the experimental group had better exercise endurance after 3 months of intervention than the control group(P＜0.05),and better quality of life after 1 and 3 months of intervention than the control group(P＜0.05).Conclusion Fragmented resistance exercise can effectively improve lung function,enhance exercise endurance and compliance,and improve quality of life in elderly patients with chronic obstructive pul-monary disease.

Objective Currently, there is no commercially available quantitative detection kit for the main Felis domestic allergen (Fel d 1) in China. To establish a rapid detection method for Fel d 1, this study aims to prepare monoclonal antibodies against Fel d 1 protein. Methods The codon preference of Escherichia coli was utilized to optimize and synthesize the Fel d 1 gene. The prokaryotic expression plasmid pET-28a-Fel d 1 was constructed and used to express and purify the recombinant Fel d 1 protein. Subsequently, the recombinant protein was immunized into BALB/c mice and monoclonal antibodies (mAbs) were prepared by the hybridoma technique. An indirect ELISA was established using the recombinant Fel d 1 as the coating antigen, and hybridoma cell lines were screened for positive clones. The specificity and antigenic epitopes of the mAbs were confirmed by Western blot analysis. Finally, the selected hybridoma cells were injected into the peritoneal cavities of BALB/c mice for large-scale monoclonal antibody production. Results The recombinant plasmid pET-28a-Fel d 1 was successfully constructed, and soluble Fel d 1 protein was obtained after optimizing the expression conditions. Western blot and antibody titer assays confirmed the successful isolation of two hybridoma cell lines, 7D11 and 5H4, which stably secreted mAbs specific to Fel d 1. Antibody characterization revealed that the 5H4 mAb was of the IgG2a subtype and could recognize the amino acid region 105-163 of Fel d 1, while the 7D11 mAb was the IgG1 subtype and could recognize the amino acid region 1-59. Conclusion The high-purity recombinant Fel d 1 protein produced in this study provides a promising alternative for clinical immunotherapy of cat allergies. Furthermore, the monoclonal antibody prepared in this experiment lays a material foundation for the in-depth study of the biological function of Fel d 1 and the development of ELISA detection.

Dent disease is a rare X-linked recessive inherited renal tubular disorder characterized by low molecular weight proteinuria (LMWP), hypercalciuria, nephrocalcinosis, and other clinical features, and can lead to progressive renal failure. It is primarily caused by mutations in the CLCN5 gene. This article reports the case of a 10-year-old male patient of Chinese descent who was incidentally found to have asymptomatic proteinuria during a routine health examination. Comprehensive biochemical testing and clinical evaluation revealed significant LMWP and hypercalciuria, while renal biopsy showed mesangial cell and matrix proliferation. Whole exome sequencing identified a novel deletion mutation in the CLCN5 gene (NM_001127899.4, c.1158delC, p.F387Lfs*42) causing a frameshift and premature termination, which is likely to disrupt its role in chloride/hydrogen ion exchange and endosomal acidification. Bioinformatic analysis indicated the variant is pathogenic. Genetic testing plays an important role in diagnosing rare kidney diseases. Early identification of pathogenic mutations is essential for facilitating timely intervention and appropriate management, potentially enhancing patient outcomes. This report expands the CLCN5 mutation spectrum and contributes to understanding the genetic and molecular mechanisms of Dent disease.

Objective:To develop a Knowledge-Attitude-Practice (KAP) Scale for Dietary Management During Hemodialysis and to test its reliability and validity.Methods:Based on the KAP theoretical framework, an initial version of the scale was developed through a literature review and expert consultations. A convenience sampling method was used to recruit hemodialysis patients from four hospitals in Suzhou in March 2024. Questionnaire item analysis and reliability and validity tests were conducted.Results:A total of 460 questionnaires were distributed and 438 valid responses were collected, with an effective response rate of 95.22%. The final scale included three dimensions (knowledge, attitude, and practice) with 34 items. Content validity at the scale level was 0.910, and the item level ranged from 0.800 to 1.000. Exploratory factor analysis extracted three common factors, with a cumulative variance contribution rate of 74.520%. Confirmatory factor analysis showed a good model fit. The total Cronbach's α coefficient of the scale was 0.971, and the Cronbach's αcoefficients for the three dimensions were 0.963, 0.933, and 0.934, respectively. The test-retest reliability coefficient was 0.839.Conclusions:The Knowledge-Attitude-Practice Scale for Dietary Management During Hemodialysis demonstrates good reliability and validity, making it a valuable tool for assessing the KAP level of dietary management in hemodialysis patients.

This paper summarized the experience of professor WANG Yongyan in differentiating and treating vascular cognitive impairment （VCI）. It is believed that the core etiology and pathogenesis of VCI are deficient qi retention and stagnation， and toxin damaging brain collaterals. The essence lies in depletion of essence and qi， and malnutrition of brain collaterals as the root cause， while phlegm， turbidity， stasis， and heat blocking brain collaterals act as the branch aspects. It reveals the pathogenesis essence of VCI as stagnation caused by deficiency and qi stagnation transforming into excess， internal generation of toxin and collateral injury. The overall therapeutic principle is to tonify deficiency， move stagnation， resolve toxin， and unblock the collaterals， guided by the three core treatment methods of nourishing， unblocking， and clearing. Clinically， according to the different characteristics of the plateau phase， fluctuation phase， and decline phase， treatment methods including replenishing qi and blood， tonifying the kidney and supplementing essence； promoting sanjiao （三焦） circulation and activating blood to dredge collaterals； clearing heat and resolving toxin， eliminating phlegm and reducing turbidity are respectively adopted. This provides clinical guidance for the treatment of VCI in traditional Chinese medicine.
