Objective To construct a dynamic framework for bidirectional transitions of mild cognitive impairment(MCI),quantifying both rare reversion and high-risk progression trajectories in cognitive dynamics.Methods Patients diagnosed with MCI at baseline from 2005 to 2022 and completed at least two follow-up visits were selected from the Alzheimer's Disease Neuroimaging Initiative(ADNI),and a retrospective cohort was constructed.Demographic information,APOEε4 genotype,and neuropsychological scales data were collected.Longitudinal cognitive assessments were functionally reconstructed using multivariate functional principal component analysis(MFPCA),with functional principal components(FPCs)extracted based on cumulative variance contribution rate(PVE>90%).Functional multi-state Markov models were developed to estimate inter-state transition intensities,year to year transition probabilities,and covariate effects.Results Among 1,019 MCI patients(4,657 follow-up visits),93(9.1%)reverted to normal cognition,while 359(35.2%)progressed to Alzheimer's disease(AD).Longitudinal trajectory analysis revealed significant heterogeneity:progressive MCI>stable MCI>reverted MCI in the first functional principal component(MFPC1)scores.The transition intensity for MCI reversion(0.020)was approximately one-fourth of the AD progression risk(0.086),but the post-reversion cognitive re-impairment intensity was 0.138.Reduced MFPC1(HR=0.993,95%Cl:0.991,0.995)and elevated MFPC2(HR=1.004,95%Cl:1.001,1.007)were closely associated with MCI reversion.Conclusion MCI exhibits marked heterogeneity in longitudinal cognitive trajectories.Although reversion is rare,reversed patients remain at high risk of cognitive re-impairment.

Objective:To investigate the role of calcium-binding protein S100A9 in acute lung injury induced by hepatic ischemia-reperfusion (HIR) in mice, and to explore its relationship with nuclear factor erythroid 2-related factor 2 (Nrf2).Methods:A total of 12 specific pathogen-free (SPF) male wild-type (WT) and 12 S100A9 knockout (S100A9 KO) C57BL/6J mice aged 6~8 weeks and weighing 20-25 g were randomly divided into four groups using a random number table: WT+Sham group, S100A9 KO+Sham group, WT+HIR group, and S100A9 KO+HIR group ( n=6 per group). The HIR model was established by clamping the portal vein and hepatic artery of the left and median liver lobes for 60 minutes followed by reperfusion. At 6 hours post-reperfusion, mice were anesthetized again, and blood samples were collected from the inferior vena cava. Both lungs were harvested. The lung wet-to-dry (W/D) weight ratio was measured. Hematoxylin and eosin (HE) staining was used to assess histopathological changes and calculate lung injury scores. The levels of inflammatory markers—S100A9, tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF-α), and interleukin-6 (IL-6) —as well as oxidative stress indicators including myeloperoxidase (MPO), reactive oxygen species (ROS), malondialdehyde (MDA), and superoxide dismutase (SOD) in serum and lung tissue were measured. Western blotting was used to assess the expression levels of nuclear and cytoplasmic Nrf2, and cytoplasmic HO-1. Results:Compared with the WT+Sham group, both the WT+HIR and S100A9 KO+HIR groups showed significantly increased lung injury scores, W/D ratio, TNF-α, IL-6, ROS, MPO, and MDA levels (all P<0.05). Compared with the WT+HIR group, the S100A9 KO+HIR group exhibited significantly reduced levels of these indicators (all P<0.05). Moreover, the S100A9 KO+HIR group showed elevated nuclear Nrf2 expression and decreased cytoplasmic Nrf2 expression, accompanied by increased expression of HO-1, Gclm, Gclc, and Nqo1 (all P<0.05). Conclusion:Upregulation of S100A9 is involved in the development of HIR-induced acute lung injury, possibly through inhibition of Nrf2 nuclear translocation.

Objective To investigate the relationship between lead exposure and the clinical heterogeneity of amyotrophic lateral sclerosis(ALS).Methods Baseline data were collected from 49 ALS patients hospitalized at the PLA General Hospital.Blood metal levels(copper,zinc,calcium,magnesium,iron,lead)were measured by graphite furnace atomic absorption spectrometry.The Revised ALS Functional Rating Scale(ALSFRS-R)was used to assess the severity of motor function impairment.Patients were grouped by site of onset and ALSFRS-R score,then blood metal levels were compared between two groups.General linear regression,ROC curves and Logistic regression models were applied to analyze the correlation between blood lead levels and disease severity to identify risk factors affecting motor function in ALS patients,and analyze its predictive value.Results The differences of blood metal levels between bulbar onset patients and non-bulbar onset patients were no statistical significance(all P>0.05).Blood lead levels were significantly lower in the high ALSFRS-R score group than in the low ALSFRS-R score group,and the difference was significant(P=0.02).Blood lead levels were negatively correlated with ALSFRS-R scores in ALS patients(Y=-0.1267X+45.86,R2=0.08937,P=0.04).The area under the ROC curve was 0.70,indicating that blood lead had predictive value for ALS severity.The Logistic regression model demonstrated that elevated blood lead level was an independent risk factor for the severity of ALS disease(OR=1.107,95%CI:1.006-1.219,P=0.04).Conclusions Blood lead levels in ALS patients correlated with disease severity and exhibited predictive utility.Elevated blood lead was an independent risk factor for the severity of motor function impairment in ALS.
