ObjectiveThis paper aims to explore the risk factors for chronic atrophic gastritis （CAG） with turbidity toxin accumulation syndrome and establish a prediction model. MethodsClinical data of 180 patients with CAG who participated in the "clinical study of Xianglian Huazhuo Particles blocking CAG cancer transformation" of Hebei Sheng Zhong Yi Yuan from July 2021 to March 2022 were collected. After confounding factors were controlled by propensity score matching， patients were divided into a training set （namely dev） and a validation set （namely vad） in a seven to three ratio. The risk factors for CAG with turbidity toxin accumulation syndrome in the training set were investigated by using univariate Logistic regression analysis and least absolute shrinkage and selection operator （namely Lasso） regression algorithms. Subsequently， a model， named model 1se， was developed by using the training set data to predict the risk factors for CAG with turbidity toxin accumulation syndrome. The accuracy of the prediction model was assessed by using various methods， including the receiver operating characteristic （ROC） curve， Hosmer-Lemeshow test （H-L）， calibration plot， and decision curve analysis （DCA）. ResultsAge， body mass index （BMI）， family history of cancer， job and life satisfaction， yellow and greasy fur with slippery pulse， and heavy body sensation were independent risk factors of the model. The prediction model showed excellent predictive value for both the training and validation sets. ConclusionThe established prediction model for CAG with turbidity toxin accumulation syndrome has high discrimination and excellent calibration， which could provide an excellent clinical basis for disease diagnosis and individualized treatment of patients.

ObjectiveTo evaluate the therapeutic effect and mechanism of tendon-management and patella-movement therapeutic manipulation in the treatment of patellofemoral arthritis based on imaging evaluation. MethodsTotally 126 patients with patellofemoral arthritis were recruited and divided into a treatment group and a control group according to a randomised numerical table. The control group received routine sodium hyaluronate injection once a week for a total of 5 times； the treatment group received tendon-management and patella-movement therapeutic manipulation three times a week for four weeks. We compared the Western Ontario and McMaster University osteoarthritis index score （WOMAC）， visual analogue scale （VAS）， imaging indicators including patellar external displacement distance， patellofemoral fit angle， lateral patellofemoral angle， and patellofemoral index， and overall effectiveness evaluation between the two groups before and one week after treatment. ResultsThe total effective rate of the treatment group （45/54， 83.33%） was significantly higher than that of the control group （36/54， 66.67%，P＜0.05）. One week after the end of treatment， the VAS scores and WOMAC scores of both groups were lower than those before treatment in the same group （P＜0.01）， and the patellofemoral index and patellofemoral fit angle of the treatment group decreased compared with that of the control group （P＜0.05）. Compared with the pre-treatment， the distance of patellar external displacement， patellofemoral index， and patellofemoral fit angle decreased in the treatment group 1 week after the end of treatment， and the patellofemoral fit angle decreased in the control group （P＜0.05）. ConclusionThe therapeutic manipulation of tendon-management and patella-movement can correct the degree of patellar external displacement， alleviate joint pain symptoms， improve joint function， and achieve the goal of treating patellofemoral arthritis.

Objective: To investigate the efficacy and safety of intelligent temperature-pressure-controlled flexible ureteroscopy combined with negative-pressure suction sheath lithotripsy in the treatment of upper urinary tract stones ≤2.5 cm. Methods: The clinical data of 225 patients with ≤2.5 cm upper urinary tract stones treated with this surgical method in our department during Aug. 2023 and Jul. 2024 were retrospectively analyzed. The patients were divided into the dual-control group (n=36) and conventional group (n=189) according to whether or not the intelligent temperature and pressure control device was used during operation. In the dual-control group，the intraoperative temperature and pressure in the renal pelvis were monitored and controlled in real time by the temperature and pressure sensors distributed at the end of the ureteral soft lens. The perioperative parameters，stone-removal rate，complication rate and renal function were compared between the two groups. Results: All operations were successfully completed in both groups. The postoperative procalcitonin (PCT) level [(22.75±5.85) ng/L vs. (29.08±6.60) ng/L，P=0.001]，difference in the white blood cell (WBC) level [(0.24±2.12)×10 cells/L vs. (1.19±2.17)×10 cells/L，P=0.016]，incidence of fever (2.8% vs. 16.9%，P=0.028) and overall complication rate (5.6% vs. 19.6%，P=0.042) were significantly lower in the dual-control group than in the conventional group，while the stone-clearance rate was slightly higher (88.9% vs. 82.5%，P=0.346)，with no significant difference. Conclusion: For upper urinary tract stones ≤2.5 cm，intelligent temperature-pressure-controlled ureteroscopy combined with negative-pressure suction sheath lithotripsy has a satisfactory stone-removal rate and a low rate of complications，which is worthy of clinical promotion.

Objective To investigate the regularity and characteristics of lithium carbonate-induced thyroid adverse drug reaction(ADR),to provide reference for clinical rational drug use.Methods The case reports of thyroid ADR caused by lithium carbonate in National Center for ADR Monitoring,China were retrieved,and the gender and age of patients,medication reasons,combined medication,dosage and clinical manifestations of thyroid ADR were retrospectively analyzed.Results A total of 237 cases of thyroid ADR caused by lithium carbonate were reported,the ratio of male to female was 1∶1.7,the frequency was higher in the age group of 20 to 29 years,and the proportion of drug use within the range of instruction dosage was 97.8％.According to the statistics of drugs used in combination,the most drugs were for mental disorders,and the time of ADR occurrence was mostly 10 to 30 days after taking the drug.The main clinical manifestations of thyroid ADR were hypothyroidism,goiter and hyperthyroidism.Conclusion Lithium carbonate-induced thyroid ADR mostly occurred at the therapeutic dose,which was related to the patient's gender,age,combined medication and other factors.Clinicians and pharmacists should master the rules and characteristics of thyroid ADR caused by lithium carbonate,timely detect and treat ADR,to provide guarantee for the safety of patients' medication.

Objective:To evaluate the role of whole exome sequencing（WES）in the etiological diagnosis and precision medicine management of patients with urolithiasis.Methods:We conducted a retrospective review of 21 patients with urolithiasis and pathogenic gene mutations identified by WES at The Second Affiliated Hospital of Zhengzhou University between April 2019 and March 2025. The cohort included 13 males and 8 females，with a mean age of（18.9 ± 11.1）years；18 patients were under 25 years old. Clinical presentations included nephrocalcinosis（8 patients）and urinary tract calculi（13 patients），with five patients exhibiting extra-renal manifestations such as renal tubular acidosis and hyperaldosteronism. Stone composition analysis identified calcium oxalate（16 patients），cystine（4 patients），and carbonate apatite（1 patient）. Metabolic abnormalities were prevalent，including hypocitraturia（11 patients），hyperoxaluria（8 patients），and hypercalciuria（7 patients），with eight patients presenting two or more concurrent disorders. All patients underwent WES and comprehensive metabolic evaluation. Sequencing was performed on an Illumina Hiseq4000 platform，achieving a mean depth of > 100× and coverage of > 98% in target regions. Variants were classified according to the American College of Medical Genetics and Genomics（ACMG）guidelines.Results:WES identified 12 distinct genes across autosomal recessive（9 genes： AGXT， GRHPR， ATP6V1B1， SLC12A1， KCNJ1， SLC3A1， SLC7A9， SLC34A3， WFS1），autosomal dominant（2 genes： CASR， ADCY10），and X-linked recessive（1 gene： CLCN5）inheritance patterns. Genotype-phenotype correlations revealed mutations associated with primary hyperoxaluria（8 patients），hypercalciuria（7 patients），and renal malformation due to a WFS1 mutation（1 patient）. A positive genetic diagnosis was achieved in 100% of patients with either urinary oxalate > 1 000 μmol/24 h or cystine stones. 8 patients received a diagnosis of hereditary stone disease at their first presentation（non-delayed group），while 13 experienced a mean diagnostic delay of（9.6 ± 3.9）years. The delayed diagnosis group had a significantly older age at initial stone onset［（10.2 ± 5.3）years vs.（6.8 ± 3.1）years， P = 0.03］and a higher incidence of impaired renal function（6 patients vs. 1 patient， P = 0.04）. Analysis of diagnostic delay by gene subgroup showed delays in 2/4 patients with cystinuria［ SLC3A1/ SLC7A9；（8.2 ± 3.5）years］，5/8 with primary hyperoxaluria［ AGXT/ GRHPR；（10.5 ± 4.1）years］，5/7 with hypercalciuria-related genes［ CASR/ ADCY10/ SLC12A1/ KCNJ1/ SLC34A3；（9.8 ± 3.8）years］，and 1/2 with other genes［ ATP6V1B1/ WFS1/ CLCN5；（7.6 ± 2.2）years］. Among 32 mutation sites detected，21 were classified as pathogenic/likely pathogenic and 11 as variants of uncertain significance. Four novel mutations were identified： ATP6V1B1（presenting with renal tubular acidosis，nephrocalcinosis，and hypocitraturia）， WFS1（presenting with renal malrotation，hydronephrosis，and stones without metabolic abnormalities）， SLC12A1（presenting with Bartter syndrome type 1，chronic renal insufficiency，hypercalciuria，hypocitraturia，alkalosis，and hyperaldosteronism），and SLC3A1（presenting with bilateral renal stones and cystinuria）. Conclusions:WES is crucial in identifying the underlying etiology of urolithiasis and can guide targeted treatment. We recommend early WES for patients with an initial stone presentation before age 25，those with nephrocalcinosis，or those with abnormal metabolic workups to facilitate precise diagnosis and preventive care.

Objective:To explore the association between different feeding methods during the first six months after birth and the physical growth of children aged 3 to 5 years.Methods:Data were from the "Taicang and Wuqiang mother-child cohort study"(TAWS) in China. Children were enrolled at birth between November 2016 and September 2020 and followed up at 1, 2, 3, 6, 8, 12, 18, and 24 months, as well as at ages 3 to 5 years. Based on feeding methods within six months of age, children were categorized into an "exclusive breastfeeding group" and a "formula-feeding group". Birth-related information and feeding practices between 8 and 24 months were collected, alongside dietary habits, physical activity, and illness during preschool years. Height and weight of preschool children were measured to calculate height-for-age Z-score (HAZ), weight-for-age Z-score (WAZ), body mass index-for-age Z-score (BAZ), and the rates of stunting, underweight, wasting, overweight, and obesity. After adjusting for demographic factors, birth-related information, feeding practices between 8 to 24 months, preschool dietary habits, physical activity, and health status, multiple linear regression and logistic regression were adopted to analyze the influence of feeding methods within six months of age on the physical growth of children aged 3 to 5 years.Results:A total of 1 233 children were included, comprising 629 boys and 604 girls. The number of children aged 3, 4, and 5 years was 436, 406, and 391, respectively. About 754 children were categorized into the exclusive breastfeeding group and 479 into the formula-feeding group. Children who were introduced to formula milk within six months of age had higher HAZ (0.09±0.99), WAZ (0.24±1.07) and BAZ (0.26±1.11) scores at ages 3 to 5 compared to the exclusive breastfeeding group [HAZ, WAZ, and BAZ were (-0.04±0.92), (0.06±1.02) and (0.11±1.08), respectively]. After adjusting for confounding factors, multiple linear regression analysis showed that the β (95% CI) values for HAZ, WAZ and BAZ in the formula-feeding group were 0.16 (0.06-0.25), 0.17 (0.06-0.29) and 0.15 (0.02-0.27), respectively, compared to the exclusive breastfeeding group. After adjusting for confounding factors, the results of the multivariate logistic regression model indicated that there were no statistically significant differences in the risks of stunting, underweight, wasting, overweight, and obesity during the preschool years between the exclusive breastfeeding group and the formula-feeding group, with OR (95% CI) values of 1.04 (0.41-2.62), 0.99 (0.27-3.57), 1.63 (0.53-4.95), 1.08 (0.66-1.74), and 1.58 (0.70-3.60), respectively. Conclusion:Exclusive breastfeeding within six months of age does not increase the risk of undernutrition (including stunting, underweight or wasting) during preschool years. However, the introduction of formula feeding within six months of age significantly increases the physical growth level of the preschool stage.

Objective To provide suggestions for the clinical efficacy evaluation method of manual therapy for knee osteoarthritis(KOA)by analyzing the current status of the use of outcome indicators in randomized controlled trials(RCTs)of manual therapy for KOA.Methods RCTs about manual treatment of KOA were retrieved from CNKI,Wanfang Data,VIP,SinoMed,PubMed,Cochrane Library,Scopus and Web of Science from March 2014 to March 2024.Two researchers screened literature,extracted literature features,analyzed the RCT indicator domain,measurement tools,and measurement time points for manual treatment of KOA.Results A total of 134 articles were included,with a sample size of 17 659.A total of 138 outcome indicators were used to classify the outcome indicators:64 symptoms and signs(46.4%),54 physical and chemical examinations(39.1%),11 quality of life(8.0%),2 psychological status indicators(1.4%),2 safety indicators(1.4%),2 muscle strength testing indicators(1.4%)and 3 other indicators(2.2%).Among 134 articles,there were a total of 36 measurement time points,with a research time span of 1 hour to 1 year after treatment;91 articles(67.9%)used"clinical efficacy"as the outcome measure;27 articles(20.1%)were evaluated for safety and reported adverse events.Conclusion The RCT outcome indicators of manual therapy for KOA lack representativeness,integrality,objectivity and specificity.The rigorism of the outcome indicators should be improved from the aspects of representativeness,integrality,objectivity and specificity,in order to achieve a complete evaluation effect on disease research.

Objective To explore the effects of 1 800 MHz electromagnetic radiation(EMR)on cognitive function of 3xTg-AD and 57C mice,providing a theoretical basis for the potential impacts of electromagnetic radiation on the human body.Methods A total of 12 3xTg-AD transgenic mice and 12 wild-type C57 mice were selected as research subjects.The one-month-old mice were divided into four groups:RF WT,Control WT,RF AD,and Control AD,with 6 mice in each group.The 1 800 MHz EMR exposure experiments were conducted from 20:00 to 8:00 the next day for a duration of 5 months.After the exposure,a water maze test was conducted to evaluate the effects of EMR on spatial learning and memory abilities of 3xTg AD mice,along with measurements of body weight,brain weight,and calculation of the brain-to-body ratio.Finally,Western Blot technique was used to measure the levels of APP,NR1,and NR2A in hippocampal tissue to analyze effects of 1 800 MHz EMR on the cognitive function of 3xTg AD mice.Results Under 1 800 MHz EMR exposure,there were no statistically significant differences in Morris water maze spatial learning ability among the four groups(P>0.05).However,longer escape time,greater swimming distances,and more crossings of target quadrant were exhibited in the RF AD group compared to the other groups(P<0.05).Western Blot results showed that the APP protein levels in 3xTg AD mice was higher than those in C57 mice(P<0.05).The expression levels of NR1 protein in the WT group was higher than those in the AD group(P<0.05);in the AD group,the RF AD group had higher levels than the Control WT group(P<0.05),and the NR2A protein levels in the Control WT group were higher than in the other groups(P<0.05).Conclusion Prolonged exposure to 1 800 MHz EMR can affect the learning and cognitive function of both 3xTg AD and C57 mice.

ObjectiveTo analyze and validate how Jiawei Sanpian decoction treats migraines by integrating network pharmacology, molecular docking technology, and experimental studies.MethodUsing network pharmacology, the chemical components and core target proteins of the Jiawei Sanpian decoction were analyzed. Key chemical components were docked with core targets using molecular docking, and the results were visualized. Nitroglycerin was injected into the dorsal cervical region to establish a rat migraine model. Finally, experiments were conducted to verify the effects of Jiawei Sanpian on related pathways and targets.ResultsFour notable chemical components were identified, namely, β-sitosterol, quercetin, mairin, and kaempferol. Five representative targets were identified, namely, insulin-like growth factor 1 (IGF-1), matrix metallopeptidase 2 (MMP-2), interleukin-2 (IL-2), superoxide dismutase 2 (SOD2), and inducible nitric oxide synthase (NOS2). Molecular docking results revealed that the minimum binding energies between the four chemical components and the five targets were below −5 kcal/mol, indicating favorable binding activity. Enzyme linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) results demonstrated the efficacy of high-dose Jiawei Sanpian decoction in treating migraine by targeting IGF-1, IL-2, MMP-2, and SOD2 (P .001). Real-time quantitative polymerase chain reaction (RT-qPCR) results demonstrated the effectiveness of high-dose Jiawei Sanpian decoction in treating migraine by targeting IGF-1, IL-2, MMP-2, and SOD2 (P .001). After using erastin, the therapeutic effect of Jiawei Sanpian decoction declined.ConclusionThis study provides initial insights into the complex and multilayered therapeutic mechanisms of Jiawei Sanpian decoction in treating migraine, primarily through its diverse components, targets, and pathways. These findings indicate that Jiawei Sanpian decoction may exert its effects mainly through processes linked to the mitochondrial inflammatory pathway, thereby providing therapeutic benefits for migraine.
