ObjectiveTo investigate the prevalence of muscle changes （including sarcopenia and myosteatosis） and related influencing factors in patients with porto-sinusoidal vascular disorder （PSVD）， and to provide a theoretical basis for the early identification， prevention， and intervention of muscle changes in PSVD patients. MethodsA total of 132 PSVD patients who were diagnosed in Nanjing Second Hospital from July 2017 to July 2024 were enrolled as case group， and the hospital staff who underwent physical examination in 2025 were enrolled as healthy control group. Propensity score matching was performed based on age and sex at a ratio of 1∶1. According to muscle status assessed by abdominal CT， the subjects were divided into non-muscle change group， mild muscle change group （myosteatosis alone）， and severe muscle change group （sarcopenia alone or sarcopenia comorbid with myosteatosis）， with the type and severity of muscle change as the exposure factors. General information， laboratory tests， L3-level CT images， and liver biopsy data were collected for the patients in the case group， and general information and CT images were collected for the individuals in the healthy control group. Sarcopenia was diagnosed by measuring skeletal muscle index at the L3 level （<44.77 cm²/m² for men and <32.50 cm²/m² for women）， and myosteatosis was defined by mean muscle attenuation combined with BMI （BMI <24.9 kg/m² with attenuation <41 HU or BMI ≥25 kg/m² with attenuation <33 HU）. Demographic， laboratory， and clinical parameters were compared between the case group and the healthy control group. The independent-samples t test was used for comparison of normally distributed continuous data between groups， and the Mann-Whitney U test was used for comparison of non-normally distributed continuous data between groups； the chi-square test or the Fisher’s exact test was used for comparison of categorical data between groups. The univariate and multivariate Logistic regression analyses were used to identify the factors associated with sarcopenia in PSVD. ResultsAmong the 132 patients with PSVD， there were 83 patients with portal hypertension （PH） and 49 patients without PH， and there were significant differences between these two groups in age， albumin， albumin/globulin ratio， leukocyte count， neutrophil count， red blood cell count， platelet count， direct bilirubin， indirect bilirubin， hemoglobin， blood calcium， cholinesterase， total bile acid， triglyceride， total cholesterol， prothrombin time， international normalized ratio， activated partial thromboplastin time， decompensation， gastroesophageal or ectopic varices， bleeding and ascites （all P<0.05）. The analyses after matching showed that compared with the healthy control group， the case group had significantly higher prevalence rates of abnormal muscle structure （43.18% vs 18.94%， P<0.001）， mild muscle changes （22.73% vs 7.58%， P<0.001）， and severe muscle changes （20.45% vs 11.36%， P<0.001）. Further comparison showed that there was no significant difference in the proportion of patients with muscle changes between the PSVD patients with PH and those without PH （42.17% vs 44.90%， P=0.760）. The binary Logistic regression analysis with the presence or absence of muscle changes as the dependent variable showed that age （odds ratio ［OR］=1.05， 95% confidence interval ［CI］： 1.02 — 1.09， P<0.05）， subcutaneous fat index （OR=1.03， 95%CI： 1.01 — 1.06， P<0.05）， hemoglobin （OR=0.97， 95%CI： 0.95 — 0.99， P<0.05）， and thrombin time （OR=1.26， 95%CI： 1.06 — 1.49， P<0.05） were independent influencing factors for muscle changes in PSVD patients. The multivariate ordinal Logistic regression analysis with the severity of muscle changes as the dependent variable showed that age （OR=1.04， 95%CI： 1.01 — 1.07， P<0.05） and thrombin time （OR=1.17， 95%CI： 1.01 — 1.36， P<0.05） were independent risk factors for the grading of muscle changes. ConclusionMuscle changes are common in PSVD patients， and these changes may be caused by PSVD itself rather than PH. Age， fat distribution， thrombin time， and hemoglobin are important influencing factors for muscle changes.

Objective: To explore the learning curve of transurethral 450 nm blue light vaporization of the prostate (TUBVP) in a district hospital，in order to provide reference for clinicians who plan to perform TUBVP. Methods: The clinical data of 56 patients with benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH) who received TUBVP performed by the same group of surgeons in Chang'an District Hospital during Jun. and Dec. 2023 were retrospectively analyzed. Cumulative sum (CUSUM) was used to fit the learning curve of ratio of volume to operating time (RVOT) of prostate volume /450 nm blue light. The learning curve was divided into different stages according to the inflection points，and the clinical data of patients operated at different stages were analyzed and compared. Results: The learning curve of TUBVP was 21 cases，including 1-21 cases in the learning stage，22-38 cases in the improvement stage and 39-56 cases in the maturity stage. With the increase of cases，the postoperative bladder irrigation time reduced \[40.00 (26.00，44.50) h vs. 23.00(20.50，34.00) h vs. 23.50(14.75，40.75) h\]，with statistical difference (P<0.05). The surgical efficiency increased \[(0.51±0.14) vs. (0.55±0.17) vs. (0.63±0.23)\]，while the reduction of hemoglobin \[(6.43±7.35) g/L vs. (5.65±10.91) g/L vs. (2.61±7.36) g/L\]，catheter indwelling time \[70.0 (66.0，106.0) h vs. 71.0 (66.0，89.0) h vs. 66.0 (58.5，78.5) h\]，and incidence of complications (9.5% vs. 5.9% vs. 0) in the three stages showed a gradually decreasing trend，but with no statistical significance (P>0.05). Conclusion: The learning curve of TUBVP is 21 cases. For clinicians in district hospitals，TUBVP is a worthy choice.

Needle-free injection(NFI)has emerged as a novel vaccine delivery technology,utilizing high-pressure jet streams to deliver vaccines into intradermal or subcutaneous tissues.In recent years,the application of this technology in the fields of medicine and veterinary medicine has a-chieved significant progress.Compared with traditional needle injection,the core advantages of NFI have been highlighted in several aspects:it has significantly improved vaccination efficiency,mak-ing it particularly suitable for mass vaccination campaigns;it has reduced animal stress;it has en-hanced the comfort of vaccination;it has more effectively induced immune responses;and it has a-voided the risk of needle contamination,thereby lowering the infection rate.However,NFI has also faced challenges such as high equipment costs,complex operation,and the need to improve market acceptance.Future research directions have focused on the development of new vaccines and adju-vants as well as the design and optimization of needle-free injectors to enhance their universality and safety among different populations.In summary,NFI has provided an important solution for the innovation of vaccine delivery systems by improving vaccination comfort and immune efficacy and has offered theoretical basis and technical references for its industrial development.

This experiment was conducted to study the effects of replacing feed protein by Herme-tia illucens larvae meal on immune function,intestinal morphology and microflora of Sichuan white geese.A total of 64 healthy 1-day-old Sichuan white geese were randomly allocated into 4 groups with 4 replicates in each group and 4 geese in each replicate,namely the control group,the 2％HILM,4％HILM and 8％HILM groups fed diets contained 0％,2％,4％and 8％of HILM,re-spectively.The experimental period was 40 days.The results showed that compared with the con-trol group,8％HILM increased the levels of serum IgG1,IgG2a and complement C3,and the difference was statistically significant(P＜0.01).4％HILM significantly increased the expression level of CD4(P＜0.05),and 8％HILM significantly increased the expression level of IL-10(P＜0.05).The ratio of villus length to crypt depth(VH/CD)in the jejunum and ileum in 4％HILM group was significantly increased(P＜0.05).The SIgA level of jejunum was significantly increased in all HILM replacement groups(P＞0.05).The abundance of Bacteroides in 4％HILM group were extremely significantly increased(P＜0.01),and the abundance of Bilophila and Bilophila wadsworthia were significantly decreased in all HILM replacement groups(P＜0.05).In conclu-sion,HILM can enhance the immune function of Sichuan white geese,improve the intestinal mor-phology of jejunum and ileum,enhance the local mucosal immunity of jejunum,increase the abun-dance of beneficial bacteria in cecum and decrease the abundance of harmful bacteria in cecum,and protect intestinal health.

Epitope vaccine is a novel strategy for vaccine development in recent years,exhibiting ad-vantages such as safety,and the ability to induce specific humoral and cellular immune responses a-gainst pathogens.Among them,the identification and delivery of epitopes are crucial in the design of multi-epitope vaccines.Compared to traditional methods of antigenic epitope identification,vari-ous new techniques such as bioinformatics,ELIspot,and intracellular cytokine staining have been developed.Since the direct immunization of multi-epitope peptides results in low protective effica-cy,efficient delivery systems are urgently needed.The antigenic epitopes commonly used delivery systems include viral vectors,and non-virus vectors such as nanoparticles,etc.Additionally,to en-hance the immunization efficacy of vaccines,antigenic epitopes are usually modified,including mul-tiple epitopes in tandem and epitope targeting modification and other strategies.This review sum-marizes the methods for accurate identification of antigenic epitopes with well immunogenicity as well as effective delivery strategies for antigenic epitopes,providing new insight into the develop-ment of novel multi-epitope vaccines.

Objective:To investigate the association between single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) of the protein phosphatase 1 regulatory subunit 1B( PPP1R1B) gene and schizophrenia in the Han population of northern Henan province. Methods:Utilizing Psychiatric Genomics Consortium 3 (PGC3) data, the SNPs of PPP1R1B gene which were significantly associated with schizophrenia were screened.Subsequently, totally 1 721 schizophrenia patients and 6 726 healthy controls from the Han population in northern Henan province were recruited for further analysis. The SNP rs907094, located within the PPP1R1B gene was validated, and the clinical symptoms of 386 schizophrenia patients were evaluated using the positive and negative syndrome scale (PANSS). Additionally, expression quantitative trait loci (eQTL) association analysis was conducted to explore the relationship between the rs907094 polymorphism and PPP1R1B gene expression.The PLINK v1.9, Genetic Power Calculater, SPSS 20.0 softwares were used for data analysis. Results:Significant differences in genotype AA, AG, GG(schizophrenia group: AA, 489(28.4%); AG, 848(49.3%); GG, 384(22.3%); control group: AA, 1 450(21.6%); AG, 3 386(50.3%); GG, 1 890(28.1%), χ2=45.418, P<0.05) and allele frequency(schizophrenia group: A, 1 826(53.1%); G, 1 616(46.9%); control group: A, 6 286(46.7%); G, 7 166(53.3%), χ2=43.877, P<0.05) were observed for SNP rs907094 between the schizophrenia group and control group. Individuals carrying allele A were identified to have a higher risk of developing schizophrenia compared to those carrying allele G ( OR=1.288, 95% CI=1.195-1.388). Furthermore, the genotype PPP1R1B gene was found to be associated with the clinical features of schizophrenia. A statistically significant difference was observed in the excitement/hostility factor between AA and GG patients with rs907094 (13.62±5.65, 15.54±4.66)( P<0.05). Additionally, significant differences were noted in the cognitive factor scores between AA and GA genotypes (17.76±5.58, 19.43±5.73)( P<0.05). Conclusions:In the Han population from northern Henan province, the rs907094 polymorphism of the PPP1R1B gene is associated with schizophrenia.And the specific locus may be implicated in arousal/hostility symptoms and cognitive dysfunction.

Objective To construct a LASSO-logistic regression model for the risk of complications of cardiopulmonary resuscitation(CPR)based on clinical data and relevant parameters of external chest compression and to provide a reference for the prevention of com-plications of cardiopulmonary resuscitation.Methods One hundred cardiac arrest survivor patients admitted to Shijiazhuang Circular Chemical Industrial Park Hospital from April 2020 to May 2023 were selected and divided into complication and non-complication groups according to complications.The clinical data,chest compression-related parameters of the 2 groups were compared,and LASSO regression was used to initially screen the influencing factors of CPR complications.Logistic regression was used to analyze the influencing factors of CPR complications,and Nomogram was drawn to predict the risk of CPR complications.Results LASSO regression screening showed that the coefficients of body mass index,thoracic anteroposterior diameter,rescuer education level,and rescuer gender were compressed.When λ was 1.786,the number of influencing factors was minimized,and the model performance was excellent.At this time,seven predic-tive variables including rescuer identity,rescuer CPR training,application of air mattress,application of decompression pad,compression depth,compression duration,and strict control of fluid volume were selected to achieve the best selection of influencing factors.Logistic regression analysis showed that rescuer being a nurse,rescuer having received CPR training,application of air mattress bed,application of decompression pad,and strict control of fluid volume were related protective factors for CPR complications,while compression depth and compression duration were related risk factors for CPR complications(P＜0.05).The nomogram diagram of the logistic prediction model for CPR complication risk showed that its C-index was 0.932,indicating good discrimination,and the calibration curve fitted well with the ideal curve.The constructed prediction model had good consistency with the actual observed results.Conclusion CPR complications included sternal fractures,lung contusions,and rib fractures.The risk closely relates to the rescuer,the rescuer's CPR training,the appli-cation of air mattress bed,the application of decompression pad,the depth of compression,the duration of compression,and the strict con-trol of fluid volume.

Objective:To investigate the iodine nutrition level and the prevalence of thyroid nodules in pregnant women in Hubei Province, and to provide a basis for prevention and treatment of iodine deficiency disorders.Methods:According to the requirements of the National Iodine Deficiency Disorders Monitoring Program (2016 Edition), a cross-sectional survey of iodine nutrition status of pregnant women ( n = 321) was conducted from July to October 2020 in two mountainous counties (Tongcheng County and Xingshan County) and two plain counties (Liangzihu District and Xinzhou District) in Hubei Province. Among them, there were 43, 114, and 164 pregnant women in the early, middle, and late stages of pregnancy, respectively. Edible salt samples and once random urine samples were collected to detect salt iodine and urinary iodine, and thyroid ultrasound was performed to calculate the detection rate of thyroid nodules. Results:The coverage rate of iodized salt, qualified rate of iodized salt, and consumption rate of qualified iodized salt in Hubei Province were 99.69% (320/321), 95.94% (307/320) and 95.64% (307/321), respectively. The median urinary iodine level for pregnant women was 164.80 μg/L. Among them, the median urinary iodine levels in Liangzihu District, Tongcheng County, Xinzhou District, and Xingshan County were 175.90, 178.25, 155.80 and 143.00 μg/L, respectively. There was a statistically significant difference in urinary iodine levels among different regions ( H = 8.51, P = 0.037). The median urinary iodine levels of pregnant women in the early, middle, and late stages of pregnancy were 187.20, 144.45, and 172.05 μg/L, respectively. There was no statistically significant difference in urinary iodine levels among pregnant women in different stages of pregnancy ( H = 2.94, P = 0.230). Urinary iodine < 150, 150 - < 250, 250 - < 500, ≥500 μg/L accounted for 45.48% (146/321), 33.33% (107/321), 19.63% (63/321), 1.56% (5/321), respectively. The detection rate of thyroid nodules was 16.82% (54/321), and the goiter rate was 0.93% (3/321). Conclusions:In 2020, Hubei Province is in an appropriate state of iodine, and there are still a considerable proportion of pregnant women in a state of iodine deficiency. The detection rate of thyroid nodules is relatively low. It is necessary to continuously monitor the iodine nutrition of pregnant women, strengthen health promotion on the hazards of iodine deficiency during pregnancy, and minimize maternal and infant health damage caused by iodine deficiency.

To explore the effect of Macleaya cordata extract(MCE)on growth performance and serum biochemistry of Sichuan White Geese,and to analyze its mechanism of action by network pharmacology and molecular docking technology combined with animal experiments verification.A total of 90 1-day-old healthy goslings were randomly divided into 5 groups with 18 goslings per group after 5 d of adaptive feeding.The control group(CON)was fed with basal diet,the antibiotic group(CTC)was supplemented with 450 mg/kg chlortetracycline premix,and the low MCE group(MCEL),medium MCE group(MCEM)and high MCE group(MCEH)were supple-mented with 200,300 and 400 mg/kg MCE,respectively.The experimental period was 21 d.On the basis of the above experiments,Network pharmacology and molecular docking technology were used to predict the core targets and signaling pathways of MCE to promote geese growth from the levels of antioxidant,immune and apoptosis,and the expression levels of the core target genes were detected by Real-time fluorescence quantitative PCR.The results showed that compared with the CON group,MCE supplementation could increase the average daily weight gain,decrease the ratio of feed to gain,significantly increase the contents of serum GH,T3,T4,TP and ALB(P＜0.05),and significantly decrease the contents of serum AST and TG(P＜0.05).Network pharmacology analysis predicted 2 active ingredient and 237 active ingredient targets,and concluded that the mechanism of MCE promoting the growth of Sichuan White Geese may be related to the role of 5 key targets such as SRC,HSP90AA1,CASP3,ESR1 and MAPK14,and the action of MAPK,apop-tosis and other signaling pathways.Molecular docking results showed that the active ingredients of sanguinarine and chelerythrine in MCE could act through MAPK14.The validation results of core targets showed that MCE could significantly reduce the mRNA expression levels of CytC,CASP2,CASP3 and CASP9 in spleen(P＜0.05)and significantly increase the mRNA expression levels of Mcl-1(P＜0.05).These results indicated that MCE could promote the growth performance of Si-chuan White Geese by regulating apoptosis,promoting the secretion of serum growth-related hor-mones and improving biochemical indicators.

Objective To establish an intelligent ICD coding management system to solve the current difficulties in hos-pital ICD coding management,reduce the error rate of information uploading,and improve the accuracy of coding.Methods An ICD coding management system was constructed,with the national clinical version of ICD coding as the main index system.The mapping relationship between the main index coding and the medical insurance version of ICD coding,as well as the hospital ver-sion of ICD coding,was established to achieve real-time maintenance and adjustment.In accordance with the requirements of na-tional public hospital performance evaluation and hospital level assessment,we will establish the ICD coding"label"function and knowledge base for evaluation indicators,embed them into electronic medical record system(EMR),and implement intelligent prompting functions for clinicians to facilitate systematic statistical analysis of data.Results After the establishment of the sys-tem,the error rate of mapping and uploading information such as disease diagnosis and procedures coding decreased significantly(1.2‰ vs 0.3‰,P＜0.05).The accuracy of the main discharge diagnosis and procedures coding has significantly improved(82％vs 91％,P＜0.05;78％vs 88％,P＜0.05).The satisfaction of clinicians and coders increased significantly(65％vs 82％,P＜0.05;79％vs 88％,P＜0.05).Conclusion This system can reduce the error rate of mapping and uploading infor-mation,improve the accuracy and completeness of coding,enhance the management level of ICD coding,and promote the high-quality development of medical care.
