OBJECTIVES: To analyze the distribution of Y chromosome azoospermia factor (AZF) microdeletions and their association with testicular development in male pediatric patients with congenital reproductive system disorders, including hypospadias, cryptorchidism, and disorders of sex development (DSD). METHODS: A prospective cohort study was conducted on pediatric patients admitted to the Department of Urology of Shanghai Children's Hospital from November 2021 to December 2023. The observation group included boys with hypospadias, cryptorchidism, or DSD, while the control group comprised boys with phimosis, indirect inguinal hernia, or hydrocele. Blood samples were collected for AZF microdeletion analysis using multiplex PCR to detect 15 sequence-tagged sites. Testicular ultrasound was performed to record testicular position and volume. Propensity score matching (PSM) was used to balance the groups. After matching, testicular volume differences were assessed. Stratified analyses compared testicular volume among children with AZF microdeletions, the control group, and children without micro-deletions in observation group. RESULTS: A total of 493 children were enrolled (observation group: 463; control group: 30). No Y chromosome microdeletions were detected in the control group. Four boys in the observation group had AZF microdeletions: one with cryptorchidism (AZFc+AZFd), one with isolated hypospadias (AZFc), and two with DSD (one with AZFb+AZFc+AZFd and one with AZFa). Ultrasonography measured 888 testicles. After PSM, testicular volume was significantly smaller in the observation group than in the control group (P<0.01). Stratified analysis revealed that among children under 9 years, those with AZF microdeletions tended to be older but had smaller testicular volumes compared to the control group and those without microdeletions in the observation group, although differences were not statistically significant (all P>0.05). Among children over 9 years, ages were comparable, but children with AZF microdeletions had smaller testicular volumes than the other two groups (statistical analysis was not performed due to small sample size). CONCLUSIONS The prevalence of Y chromosome microdeletions is higher in male children with congenital reproductive system disorders compared to the general population, particularly in those with DSD. Hypospadias, cryptorchidism, DSD, and AZF microdeletions may be associated with delayed testicular development in these children.

Objective:To explore the factors influencing adherence to voice therapy among patients with voice disorders in China. Methods:Patients with voice disorders who visited the Voice Therapy Center at Sun Yat-sen Memorial Hospital, Sun Yat-sen University, from February to May 2022 were enrolled in the study. Adherence was assessed using the URICA-Voice scale, while influencing factors were assessed through the Voice Handicap Index（VHI） scale and a general information questionnaire. Correlation analysis was conducted using univariate and multivariate logistic regression analysis. Results:A total of 247 patients were included in the study, comprising 57 males（23.08%） and 190 females（76.92%）. The results revealed that: ①Female patients demonstrated higher likelihood of being in the contemplation stage（OR=0.22） compared to males. ②Patients with a monthly family income per capita>6 000 yuan were more likely to be in the contemplation stage than those with<3 000 yuan with an OR = 13.94. ③High vocal-demand occupations increased contemplation stage probability（OR=7.70） compared to moderate-demand occupations. ④Residence within 30-minute commute predicted action/maintenance stages（OR=7.14） versus≥60-minute commute. ⑤Patients whose occupations had high voice demands were more likely to be in the action and maintenance stages than those with average voice demands, with an OR of 16.20. Conclusion:Gender, monthly family income per capita, occupational voice demands, and distance to the hospital significantly impact the URICA-Voice compliance stages of patients. Patients who are female, have higher family income, have occupations with high voice demands, and live closer to the hospital exhibit higher compliance with voice training.

Qingfeitang， specialized in resolving phlegm to stop cough and producing fluid to moisten dryness， is a classic prescription inherited and developed by physicians of successive generations and has been included in the Catalogue of Ancient Classic Prescriptions （First Batch） published by the National Administration of Traditional Chinese Medicine （TCM） in 2018. Relevant ancient books data and modern literature were collected by bibliometrics to analyze the historic origin， formula composition， herb origin， preparation methods， processing methods， clinical effect， and indications of Qingfeitang. The key information of Qingfeitang was summarized to provide reference for the clinical application of the decoction. In this study， a total of 43 pieces of effective data on relevant ancient literature， including 35 ancient TCM books， were collected based on a systematic collation of relevant historic and modern literature. Results showed that "Qingfeitang" was originated from the "Renshen Qingfeitang" recorded in the Taiping Holy Prescriptions for Universal Relief from the Qing dynasty. The name of "Qinfeitang" was first recorded in the Yeshi Luyanfang written by YE Dalian in the Song dynasty. We suggested the modern dosage and usage of Qingfeitang as follows： "Scutellariae Radix of 5.60 g， Platycodon grandiflora， Poria， Tangerine， Fritillaria， and Cortex Mori of 3.73 g respectively， Angelicae Sinensis Radix， Asparagi Radix， Gardeniae Fructus， Armeniacae Semen Amarum， and Ophiopogonis Radix of 2.61 g respectively， Schisandra of 1 g， and Glycyrrhizae Radix et Rhizoma of 1.12 g， and they were taken 3 times daily. The above formula is recommended to be decocted with 400 mL of water， with 3.37 g ginger and 6 g jujubae fructus， to 320 mL， and taken after a meal， three times per day". Qingfeitang has the effect of resolving phlegm to stop cough and producing fluid to moisten dryness， specialized in treating cough， asthma， rash， and other symptoms in ancient times. Modern applications are mainly focused on the respiratory system， used for treating diseases such as bronchopneumonia and cough. The above research results provide a reference basis for the later development and research of Qingfeitang.

Objective:To investigate the effects of diquat (DQ) on the expression of intestinal pyroptosis-related proteins and tight junction proteins in rats, and to analyze the role of pyroptosis in the intestinal injury of rats with acute DQ poisoning.Methods:A total of 36 Wistar male rats were randomly divided into control group, and 3 hours, 12 hours, 36 hours and 3 days exposure groups, with 6 rats in each group. Each exposure group was given 1/2 median lethal dose (LD50) of 115.5 mg/kg DQ by one-time gavage. The control group was given the same amount of normal saline by gavage. The control group was anesthetized at 3 hours after DQ gavage to take jejunal tissues; each exposure group was anesthetized at 3 hours, 12 hours, 36 hours, and 3 days after DQ gavage to take jejunal tissues, respectively. The general conditions of the rats were recorded. The pathological changes of jejunum tissue were observed by hematoxylin-eosin (HE) staining. The expression of intestinal pyroptosis-related proteins [NOD-like receptor protein 3 (NLRP3), cysteine aspartate-specific protease 1 (caspase-1), Gasdemin D (GSDMD)] in the intestinal tissues was observed by immunohistochemical staining. Western blotting was used to detect the expression of intestinal pyroptosis-related proteins and intestinal tight junction proteins (Occludin and Claudin-1).Results:Light microscopy showed that pathological changes occurred in jejunum tissue at the early stage of exposure (3 hours), and the injury was the most serious in the 12 hours exposure group, with a large number of inflammatory cells infiltrating in the tissue, and the damage was significantly reduced after 3 days exposure. Immunohistochemical results showed that NLRP3, caspase-1 and GSDMD were expressed in the jejunal mucosa of the control group and the exposure groups, and the positive cells in the control group were less expressed with light staining. The expression of the above proteins in the exposed group was increased significantly and the staining was deep. Western blotting results showed that compared with the control group, the expression of NLRP3 protein in jejunum tissues of all groups was increased, with the most significant increase in the 36 hours group (NLRP3/β-actin: 1.47±0.06 vs. 0.43±0.14, P < 0.01). Compared with the control group, the expression of GSDMD protein in the 3 hours, 12 hours and 36 hours exposure groups increased, and the expression of GSDMD protein in the 3 hours and 12 hours exposure groups increased significantly (GSDMD/β-actin: 1.04±0.40, 1.25±0.15 vs. 0.65±0.25, both P < 0.05). The expression of caspase-1 protein was increased in 36 hours exposure group compared with the control group (caspase-1/β-actin: 1.44±0.34 vs. 0.98±0.19, P > 0.05). Compared with the control group, the expression of Occludin and Claudin-1 proteins in each exposure group decreased, and the expression of Occludin proteins was significantly decreased in the 3 hours, 12 hours, and 36 hours exposure groups decreased significantly (Occludin/β-actin: 0.74±0.17, 0.91±0.20, 0.79±0.23 vs. 1.41±0.08, all P < 0.05). Although the protein expression of Claudin-1 decreased in each exposure group, the difference was not statistically significant. Conclusion:The intestinal injury caused by acute DQ poisoning may be related to the activation of pyroptosis pathway of small intestinal cells and the reduction of the density of intercellular junctions.

Objective To investigate the key elements for model establishment and determine the evaluation indicators of animal models for pelvic inflammatory disease(PID),providing a reference for improving modelling methods and optimizing the application of PID animal models.Methods The search query"Pelvic Inflammatory Disease"AND"Animal Model"OR"Rat"OR"Mouse"OR"Guinea Pig"OR"Rabbit"OR"Dog"OR"Pig"was used to retrieve relevant literature on PID animal models published from 2013 to 2023 in China Knowledge Network Infrastructure(CNKI),Wanfang,and PubMed databases.The studies were analyzed and categorized based on experimental animal types,modelling methods,modelling cycles,detection indicators,positive control drugs,and administration duration.A database was established for statistical analysis.Results A total of 214 research articles on PID animal models meeting the inclusion criteria were identified.The most commonly used model animals are Sprague Dawley(SD)rats,followed by Wistar rats.The most frequently employed modelling method is a combination of mechanical injury and bacterial infection,followed by the phenol mucilage method.The most common modelling cycles for acute pelvic inflammatory disease(APID)and chronic pelvic inflammatory disease(CPID)/sequelae of pelvic inflammatory disease(SPID)are 8 to 14 days,while for PID models without specific staging,the cycles are 7 days.High-frequency detection methods and indicators include histopathological observation using hematoxylin-eosin staining,enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay(ELISA)for serum-related indicators,morphological changes of tissues observed with the naked eye,and immunohistochemical detection of related protein expression in uterine tissues,and pathological scoring.The most frequently used positive control drugs are Fuke Qianjin Tablets,followed by Jingangteng Capsules.The most common administration duration for APID is 7 days,and for CPID/SPID models,it ranges from 15 to 21 days.Conclusion Currently,SD rats and Wistar rats are commonly used as experimental animals for PID models.The dual modelling method of mechanical injury combined with mixed bacterial infection aligns closely with clinical pathogenesis and can be used to establish a PID model that simulates postoperative uterine cavity infection.Depending on the research objectives,different positive drugs and detection indicators should be selected for comprehensive evaluation.Most existing PID animal model studies are based on western medical diagnosis,with fewer studies focusing on Traditional Chinese Medicine(TCM)syndromes.There is a need to integrate TCM theories of etiology and pathogenesis to construct PID animal models that are more in line with TCM clinical symptoms.

Objective To explore the potential categories and influencing factors of dietary behavioral adherence trajectories in young and middle-aged patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus.Methods A convenience sampling method was used to investigate 277 young and middle-aged patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus admitted to the Department of Endocrinology of a tertiary A hospital in Huai'an City,China,from September 2022 to March 2023.The baseline data were collected using a general information questionnaire,the Dietary Behavioral Compliance Scale for Patients with Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus,the Diabetes Self-Efficacy Scale,the Diabetes Knowledge Text,the Health Beliefs Questionnaire,and the Family APGAR Index Questionnaire.The baseline information was collected on the patients'behavioral adherence trajectories a day prior to hospital discharge(T0),a week post-discharge(T1),a month post-discharge(T2),and 3 months post-discharge(T3)to assess the level of patients'dietary behavioral adherence,using latent variable growth mixed models to identify trajectory categories,and univariate and multivariate logistic regression to analyze the influences on dietary adherence trajectories.Results A total of 3 trajectories of dietary behavior adherence in young and middle-aged patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus were identified,namely,low adherence-fluctuating group(49.8%),high adherence-slowly regressing group(31.4%),and medium adherence-continuously rising group(18.8%),and the results showed that age,literacy level,self-efficacy,health beliefs,and family caring were the factors influencing potential categories of dietary behavioral adherence for young and middle-aged patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus.Conclusion There is heterogeneity in the adherence trajectories of young and middle-aged patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus,and healthcare professionals can develop targeted interventions according to the influencing factors of the trajectory categories in order to improve their adherence.

Objective:To investigate the clinical feature of psoriatic arthritis (PsA) and serum negative rheumatoid arthritis (SNRA).Methods:A retrospective analysis was conducted on 77 patients with PsA who visited the Rheumatology and Immunology Department of the Second Affiliated Hospital of Wannan Medical College and the Yijishan Hospital of Wannan Medical College from October 2020 to October 2023 as the observation group. A total of 87 patients with SNRA who visited during the same period were collected as the control group. The clinical characteristics, laboratory indicators, joint magnetic resonance imaging, and extra articular manifestations of the two groups of patients were compared. The Kolmogorov-Smirnov test was used to determine whether the metric data conforms to normal distribution. The group differences of non-normal distribution of measurement data were analyzed by Mann-Whitney U test .Chi square or continuity corrected chi square analysis were used to compare rates or composition ratios. Results:The male to female incidence ratio in the PsA group was 4∶3, while in the SNRA group it was 6∶23. There were more male patients in the PsA group( χ2=21.56, P<0.001). The average age of the PsA group was (50±11) years, which was lower than that of the SNRA group (57±13) years ( t=3.84, P=0.001). The incidence of distal interphalangeal joint swelling and pain in the PsA group was 57.1%(44/77), which was higher than that in the SNRA group (9.2%, 8/87) ( χ2=43.37, P<0.001). The incidence of distal interphalangeal joint swelling and pain in the PsA group was 62.3%(48/77), which was higher than that in the SNRA group (5.7%, 5/87) ( χ2=59.81, P<0.001). The incidence of axial joint involvement in the PsA group was 28.6%(22/77), which was higher than that in the SNRA group (4.6%, 4/87) ( χ2=31.68, P<0.001). The intensity of tenosynovitis in the PsA group was 2.00 (1.00, 2.00), which was higher than that in the SNRA group 0.00(0.00, 1.00) ( Z=-2.25, P=0.047). The wrist joint bone erosion intensity in the PsA group was 5.00 (4.00, 8.00), which was higher than that in the SNRA group by 2.50 (1.00, 5.00) ( Z=-2.59, P=0.010). The intensity of wrist tenosynovitis in the PsA group was 1.00 (0.00, 1.00), which was lower than that in the SNRA group by 1.50(1.00, 2.00) ( Z=-2.61, P=0.009). The intensity of knee joint tenosynovitis in the PsA group was 0.00(0.00, 0.00), lower than that in the SNRA group by 1.00 (1.00, 2.00) ( Z=-3.98, P<0.001). The intensity of knee joint bone erosion in the PsA group was 0.00(0.00, 2.25), lower than that in the SNRA group by 1.00 (1.00, 2.50) ( Z=-2.70, P=0.007). The incidence of soft tissue edema around the knee joint in the PsA group was 85.7%(12/14), higher than that in the SNRA group by 45.0%(9/12) ( χ2=5.78, P=0.016). The incidence rate of EAMs in PsA group was 18.8%(6/32), significantly lower than that in SNRA group 67.6%(23/34) ( χ2=16.00, P<0.001). Conclusion:Compared with SNRA, PSA patients are mostly male, with a lower age of onset, often involving the axial joint and distal interphalangeal joint. Foot tenosynovitis is more severe, wrist joint bone erosion is higher, soft tissue edema around the knee joint is more common, and extraarticular manifestations are less common.
