Objective To explore the latent class and influencing factors between different behavioral lifestyles in community patients with diabetes, to classify the population and reveal the behavioral lifestyle characteristics of different types of diabetes, and to provide a scientific basis for active health management of diabetes, the identification of high-risk groups and maximization of the effect of intervention measures. Methods From June to August 2022, a behavioral and lifestyle follow-up survey was conducted on 1 179 diabetes patients with electronic health records from 18 community health service centers in Pingshan District, Shenzhen. The latent class analysis (LCA) method was used to cluster the life and behavior style of the study subjects, and the disordered multi-classification logistic regression was used to analyze the influencing factors of each class. Results The LCA results showed that there were three latent classes of community diabetes patients: “overweight and obese group” (28.4%), “balanced diet group” (30.8%), and “vegetarian but persistent exercise group” (40.8%). Logistic regression analysis results showed that age, total cholesterol , LDL , fasting blood glucose, comorbidities, and hypertension history affected the latent classes of behavioral lifestyle in diabetic patients in the community (P<0.05). Conclusion The behavioral lifestyle of community diabetes patients has obvious classification characteristics and obvious differentiation in terms of eating behavior. Doctors and health managers can issue corresponding lifestyle medicine prescriptions and formulate corresponding active health management measures to prevent the occurrence of risk factors related to diabetes patients in advance and formulate personalized intervention measures.

Objective:To analyze the clinical and imaging features of patients with COVID-19-related osmotic demyelination syndrome (ODS).Methods:COVID-19-related ODS cases diagnosed in the Department of Neurology, Peking Union Medical College Hospital from January 2020 to September 2023 were retrospectively reviewed. And their past medical history, possible triggers, clinical manifestations, imaging manifestations, treatment and prognosis were summarized.Results:A total of 5 patients with COVID-19-related ODS were included. Electrolyte disturbances acted as an inducement of ODS in all patients (5/5),4 of whom with hyponatremia. Four of 5 patients first presented with disturbance of consciousness, followed by predominant dystonia. Imaging of all patients (5/5) showed isolated extrapontine myelinolysis (EPM). With the prolongation of the course of disease, such signal intensity could return to normal, and lesions showed atrophic changes in some patients. The patients′ clinical symptoms were partly relieved within a few days to a few months after treatment.Conclusions:COVID-19-related ODS is mostly associated with hyponatremia, and EPM is more common. COVID-19 should be considered as a risk factor for ODS.

Objective:To investigate the influencing factors for splenomegaly secondary to acute pancreatitis (AP) and construction of a nomogram prediction model.Methods:The retrospective case-control study was conducted. The clinicopathological data of 180 patients with AP who were admitted to Xuanwu Hospital of Capital Medical University from December 2017 to December 2021 were collected. There were 124 males and 56 females, aged (49±15) years. Among them, 60 AP patients who developed secondary splenomegaly were taken as the case group, including 48 males and 12 females, aged (47±13)years, and the rest of 120 cases of AP without secondary splenomegaly were taken as the control group, including 76 males and 44 females, aged (50±16)years. Observation indicators: (1) occurrence and clinical characteristics of splenomegaly secondary to AP; (2) influencing factors for splenomegaly secondary to AP; (3) construction and evaluation of a nomogram prediction model for splenomegaly secondary to AP. Measurement data with normal distribution were represented as Mean± SD, and comparison between groups was analyzed using the t test. Measurement data with skewed distribution were represented as M( Q1, Q3), and comparison between groups was analyzed using the rank sum test. Count data were represented as absolute numbers, and comparison between groups was analyzed using the chi-square test or Fisher exact probability. The univariate analysis was performed using statistical methods appropriate to the data type. The optimal cut-off value was determined by the receiver operating characteristic curves. Multivariate analysis was conducted using the Logistic regression model with forward method. Based on the results of the multivariate analysis, a nomogram prediction model was constructed. The receiver operating characteristic curve was drawn, and the discrimination was evaluated using the area under curve. The consistency of the nomogram prediction model was evaluated using calibration curve, and its clinical benefit was evaluated using decision curve. Results:(1) Occurrence and clinical characteristics of splenomegaly secondary to AP. The first detection time of 60 patients with splenomegaly secondary to AP was 60(30,120)days after the onset of AP. Cases with persistent respiratory dysfunction, multiple organ failure, severity of illness as mild or moderately severe/severe, pancreatic and/or peripancreatic infection, surgery were 19, 17, 4, 56, 37, 32 for 60 patients with splenomegaly secondary to AP, versus 16, 19, 43, 77, 39, 29 for 120 patients without splenomegaly secondary to AP, respectively, showing significant differences in the above indicators between the two groups ( χ2=8.58, 3.91, 17.64, 13.95, 15.19, P<0.05). (2) Influencing factors for splenomegaly secondary to AP. Resuts of multivariate analysis showed that white blood cell count <5.775×10?/L within 24 hours of AP onset, revised computed tomography (CT) severity index >7 in 3-7 days after onset and the presence of local complications were independent risk factors influencing the splenomegaly secondary to AP ( odds ratio=3.85, 2.86, 6.40, 95% confidence interval as 1.68-8.85, 1.18-6.95, 1.56-26.35, P<0.05). (4) Construction and evaluation of a nomogram prediction model for splenomegaly secondary to AP. The nomogram prediction model was constructed based on white blood cell count within 24 hours of AP onset, revised CT severity index in 3-7 days after onset and local complications. The area under the receiver operating characteristic curve of the nomogram prediction model was 0.76 (95% confidence interval as 0.69-0.83, P<0.05), with a sensitivity of 0.87 and a specificity of 0.55. The calibration curve demonstrated consistency between the predicted rate from the nomogram prediction model and the actually observed rate. The decision curve analysis indicated that the nomogram prediction model had favorable clinical practicability. Conclusions:Patients with AP who develop secondary splenomegaly tend to have a higher severity of illness than those develop no secondary splenomegaly. White blood cell count <5.775×10?/L within 24 hours of AP onset, revised CT severity index >7 in 3-7 days after onset and presence of local complications are independent risk factors influencing splenomegaly secondary to AP, and its nomogram prediction model can predict incidence rate of splenomegaly secondary to AP.

OBJECTIVE To evaluate the clinical effectiveness and safety of domestic generic and imported original clopidogrel for antiplatelet therapy in patients with acute coronary syndrome (ACS). METHODS The clinical data of ACS patients in Nanjing Drum Tower Hospital of China Pharmaceutical University from January 2020 to June 2021 were retrospectively collected by using electronic medical record system, and the patients were divided into original drug group (321 cases) and generic drug group (328 cases) according to the drug use. Both groups were given dual antiplatelet therapy with clopidogrel and aspirin. The effectiveness and safety outcomes of the two groups were followed up for 12 months and compared, the related influential factors were analyzed. RESULTS Major adverse cardiovascular events (MACE) occurred in 16 and 22 patients in original drug group and generic drug group respectively, including nonfatal myocardial infarction (4 and 5 cases), stroke (2 and 4 cases), revascularization (8 and 3 cases), cardiovascular related death (2 and 4 cases), and all-cause death (4 and 6 cases). There were 12 and 7 patients with major bleeding events, 38 and 29 patients with minor bleeding events, and 33 and 21 patients with non-bleeding adverse events. There was no statistically significant difference in the cumulative incidence of related events (P values of Log-Rank tests were all greater than 0.05). Cox regression analysis showed that the use of generic clopidogrel did not increase the risk of MACE and major bleeding events in ACS patients [hazard ratio of 1.305 and 0.416, 95% confidence interval of (0.678, 2.512) and (0.155, 1.117), respectively, P>0.05], and the combination of proton pump inhibitors (PPI) could reduce the risk of major bleeding events [hazard ratio of 0.196, 95% confidence interval of (0.063, 0.611), P<0.05]. CONCLUSIONS Compared with imported original drug, domestic generic clopidogrel has similar clinical effectiveness and good safety. Combined use of PPI may be a beneficial factor to reduce the occurrence of major bleeding events in patients.

Cell membrane camouflaged nanoparticles have been widely used in the field of drug leads discovery attribute to their unique biointerface targeting function. However, random orientation of cell membrane coating does not guarantee effective and appropriate binding of drugs to specific sites, especially when applied to intracellular regions of transmembrane proteins. Bioorthogonal reactions have been rapidly developed as a specific and reliable method for cell membrane functionalization without disturbing living biosystem. Herein, inside-out cell membrane camouflaged magnetic nanoparticles (IOCMMNPs) were accurately constructed via bioorthogonal reactions to screen small molecule inhibitors targeting intracellular tyrosine kinase domain of vascular endothelial growth factor recptor-2. Azide functionalized cell membrane acted as a platform for specific covalently coupling with alkynyl functionalized magnetic Fe3O4 nanoparticles to prepare IOCMMNPs. The inside-out orientation of cell membrane was successfully verified by immunogold staining and sialic acid quantification assay. Ultimately, two compounds, senkyunolide A and ligustilidel, were successfully captured, and their potential antiproliferative activities were further testified by pharmacological experiments. It is anticipated that the proposed inside-out cell membrane coating strategy endows tremendous versatility for engineering cell membrane camouflaged nanoparticles and promotes the development of drug leads discovery platforms.

Human parainfluenza viruses (HPIVs) comprise four serotypes (HPIV1-4) and are the second most common pathogens responsible for severe acute respiratory tract infections in infants worldwide. Additionally, HPIVs play a significant role as etiological agents of lower respiratory tract infections in organ transplant recipients, immunocompromised individuals, patients with chronic diseases, and the elderly. HPIVs belong to the Paramyxoviridae family. Among them, HPIV1 and HPIV3 belong to the genus Respirovirus, while HPIV2 and HPIV4 belong to the genus Rubulavirus. The viral genome of HPIV1-4 is approximately 15-17 kb in length and encodes six major structural proteins, including the nucleocapsid protein, phosphoprotein, matrix protein, fusion protein, hemagglutinin-neuraminidase protein, and large RNA-dependent RNA polymerase. In addition, different serotypes of HPIVs also encode several small proteins involved in viral replication. This review summarizes current research advances in the structure and function of genome-encoded proteins, regulatory mechanisms of viral genome transcription and replication, and interactions with host cells to deepen the understanding of the function of HPIVs genome-encoded proteins.

Post-stroke cognitive impairment (PSCI) refers to a series of syndromes from mild cognitive impairment to dementia caused by stroke. The mitogen-activated protein kinases (MAPK)signaling pathway is a key pathway for transmitting cellular signals in mammals ,and p 38 is a classic branch of it. p 38 MAPK signaling pathway is involved in various pathophysiological processes such as cell growth ,differentiation,apoptosis and inflammatory response in central nervous system diseases. At present ,great progress has been made in clinical and basic experimental studies on prevention and treatment of PSCI by traditional Chinese medicine (TCM),but there is a lack of relevant systematic summary. Therefore ,this article summarizes the role of p 38 MAPK signaling pathway in PSCI and the pharmacological research progress of TCM in prevention and treatment of PSCI through p 38 MAPK signaling pathway.

Objective:To analyze the effects of infectious complications [infected pancreatic necrosis (IPN) and extra-pancreatic infection (EPI)] on the outcomes of patients with severe acute pancreatitis (SAP), and evaluate the differences in infection time, infection site and infecting species between SAP patients with infections complications.Methods:The clinical data of 66 SAP patients with combined infectious complications admitted to Xuanwu Hospital, Capital Medical University from January 2014 to December 2020 were retrospectively analyzed, and SAP patients were divided into IPN group ( n=7), EPI group ( n=14) and co-infection (EPI+ IPN) group ( n=45) according to the type of infection. Whether the study data conformed to a normal distribution was assessed by the Shapiro-Wilk test, normally distributed measures were expressed as mean ± standard deviation ( ± s), and ANOVA was used for comparison between groups; skewed measures were expressed as median (interquartile range) [ M ( Q1, Q3)], and the rank-sum test was used for comparison between groups. Bonferroni correction was used for multiple group comparisons ( P value significance level reduced to 0.017). Quantitative data were compared between groups using the χ2 test or Fisher's exact probability method. Results:There were no statistical differences between the three groups in terms of baseline data at admission (gender, age, etiology, modified CTSI score, degree of pancreatic necrosis, and number of organ failure) ( P>0.05), patients in the EPI group were referred earlier than the other two groups ( P<0.05). In clinical treatment, patients in the IPN group and co-infection group required multiple minimally invasive interventions compared with those in the EPI group ( P<0.05), and the number of patients requiring combined nutritional support, length of intensive care unit stay, and total length of hospital stay were higher in the co-infection group than in the other two groups ( P<0.05). In addition, 360 strains of pathogenic bacteria were cultured in this study, with Gram-negative bacteria being the most common, and patients with SAP were more likely to have EPI in the early stage of disease onset, with bacteremia and respiratory tract infections in the early stage (≤14 d), and bacteremia, urinary tract infections, and catheter-associated infections in the late stage (>14 d). Conclusions:Among patients with SAP, patients in the co-infection group had higher surgical intervention, nutritional support and length of hospital stay than those in the single infection group. It is advisable to prioritize EPI in SAP patients with suspected infections, and the common infectious strains in SAP patients are still predominantly Gram-negative bacteria, and clinicians need to adjust the treatment plan in a timely manner according to the changes in patients′ conditions.
