Objective To analyze the prevalence of hyperuricemia (HUA) among adults in Hebei Province and its influencing factors related to comorbidities with ^“three highs^”, and to provide a theoretical basis for the prevention and control of HUA and multi-disease co-management. Methods Data were derived from the 2018 China Chronic Disease and Risk Factors Surveillance program conducted in Hebei Province. A multi-stage stratified cluster random sampling method was used to select permanent residents aged ≥18 years. All statistical analyses were adjusted for complex weighting. Design-based logistic regression was employed to analyze factors influencing HUA prevalence, and ordinal logistic regression was used to analyze the influencing factors of HUA patients and their comorbidity with ^“three highs^”. Results The prevalence of HUA among adults in Hebei Province was 10.42%, with males showing higher rates than females (P<0.05). The highest prevalence of HUA was observed in the 18-39 age group, followed by a declining trend, and a resurgence in those aged ≥70 (P<0.05). Among HUA patients with comorbidities, isolated HUA, 1 comorbidity, 2 comorbidities, and 3 comorbidities accounted for 13.94%, 33.33%, 39.17%, and 13.56%, respectively. HUA combined with hypertension and dyslipidemia represented the highest proportion (31.07%). Analysis of the influencing factors of HUA revealed that higher education levels, obesity, central obesity, and dyslipidemia increased the risk of HUA (P<0.05). Ordinal logistic regression analysis of HUA combined with three highs showed that HUA patients aged ≥50 years, overweight individuals, and those with chronic kidney disease had a higher number of patients with three highs (P<0.05). Conclusion HUA exhibits insidious onset, and it is recommended to include uric acid testing in routine physical examinations. Targeted prevention measures, such as early uric acid testing and health education, should be implemented by Hebei authorities for populations with higher education levels, obesity, central obesity, and dyslipidemia to reduce HUA incidence. Additionally, health education and regular medical check-ups are recommended for overweight HUA patients and those with chronic kidney disease to prevent comorbidities and alleviate disease burden.

Human respiratory syncytial virus (RSV) is a major cause of lower respiratory tract infections in infants and young children, as well as an important cause of respiratory tract infections in immunocompromised patients and the elderly, which poses a significant economic and social burden worldwide. In recent years, substantial progress has been made in understanding the structure and function of RSV proteins and the interactions between RSV with host factors which is helpful to the discovery of new therapeutic targets and the development of novel interventions. Although two vaccines and two monoclonal antibodies for RSV prevention have been approved, the antiviral treatment remains an unmet clinical need. In this review, we summarize the structure, protein functional properties, and pathological mechanisms of RSV and the current status of RSV drug development. In addition, remaining challenges and innovative ideas for RSV prevention and treatment have also been highlighted.

Objective:To explore the current status of orthopedic nurses' health science popularization information generation capacity and training needs in Beijing.Methods:This study was a cross-sectional survey. Convenience sampling was used to select 818 orthopedic nurses from 54 hospitals (48 Class Ⅲ hospitals and 6 ClassⅡ hospitals) in Beijing in April 2024 for the study. General Information Questionnaire, Self-assessment Scale for Orthopedic Nurses' Health Science Popularization Information Generation Capacity, and Training Needs Scale for Orthopedic Nurses' Health Science Popularization Information Generation Capacity were used to survey the study participants. Multiple linear regression was used to analyze the factors influencing orthopedic nurses' health science popularization information generation capacity. A total of 818 questionnaires were distributed and 781 valid questionnaires were recovered, with a valid recovery rate of 95.48% (781/818) .Results:The 781 orthopedic nurses had a total score of [49.00 (42.00, 57.00) ] on the Self-assessment Scale for Orthopedic Nurses' Health Science Popularization Information Generation Capacity. Multiple linear regression analysis showed that years of working experience, health status, intention to participate in health science popularization, stage of health science popularization behavior, and frequency of participation in health science popularization training were the factors influencing orthopedic nurses' health science popularization information generation capacity ( P<0.05), which explained 17.30% of the total variation. Beijing orthopedic nurses had training needs in five areas of assessing audience needs, assessing message risk, revising and improving messages, generating messages, and pretesting messages. Conclusions:The Beijing orthopedic nurses' health science popularization information generation capacity is at a medium and high level, but there is still much room for improvement. It is recommended to pay attention to the physical and mental health of orthopedic nurses, improve the work commitment, and build a long-term incentive mechanism to stimulate the enthusiasm of orthopedic nurses in health science popularization. Medical institutions or specialty societies should actively formulate training programs, build training platforms, and gradually perfect the orthopedic nurses' health science popularization training system in order to comprehensively enhance the health science popularization information generation capacity and help China's great health.

Objective To assess the effect of early nutritional intervention on the patients with respiratory diseases at nutritional risk. Methods A total of 130 patients with respiratory disease who were hospitalized in Shanghai Fifth People’s Hospital, Fudan University between May 2023 and December 2024 and had a nutritional risk screening 2002 score ≥3 points. Based on the initiation time of nutritional intervention, patients were divided into an early group (≤5 days, n＝65) and a late group (＞5 days, n＝65). Results In the early group, prealbumin (P-ALB) and retinol-binding protein (RBP) levels were significantly higher (P＜0.01), C-reactive protein (CRP), procalcitonin (PCT) levels were significantly lower after intervention (P＜0.05). Compared with the late group, the hospital costs were lower and hospital stays were shorter in the early group (P＜0.001). Spearman analysis showed ALB, P-ALB, and total protein (TP) were negatively correlated with hospital costs (r＝－0.37, －0.20, and－0.22, P＜0.05). RBP, ALB, P-ALB, and lymphocyte count (LYM) were negatively correlated with CRP (r＝－0.30, －0.26, －0.37, －0.18, P＜0.01), RBP, ALB, P-ALB, hemoglobin (HB), and TP were negatively correlated with PCT (r＝－0.23,－0.36, －0.40, －0.30, －0.19, P＜0.05). Conclusions For patients with respiratory diseases, early nutritional assessment should be underwent, and for patients with nutritional risk screening 2002 score ≥3 points, early nutritional intervention could improve the nutritional status and alleviate inflammatory response, promote recovery, shorten the hospital stays.

Objective:Hearing loss can seriously affect mental health status, and this study aims to investigate the influence of hearing health status on depressive symptoms among middle-aged and older individuals in the community.Methods:From June to December 2023, a stratified random sampling method was employed to select 1 238 community-dwelling middle-aged and elderly people aged 45 years and above from four cities (Hangzhou, Shanghai, Baoding, and Zhengzhou) as research subjects. A questionnaire survey was conducted to collect the subjects′ basic information, hearing health status [assessed by the Hearing Handicap Inventory for Adults-Screening Version (HHIA-S)], and depressive symptoms [assessed by the Geriatric Depression Scale-15 (GDS-15)]. T-tests, rank-sum tests and chi-square tests were used for univariate analysis, while, multiple linear regression and binary Logistic regression were applied to analyze the relationship between hearing health status and depressive symptoms.Results:A total of 1 183 community-dwelling middle-aged and elderly people aged 45 years and above were included in the final analysis (464 males and 719 females, aged from 45 to 96 years). The detection rate of hearing loss was 35.3%(418/1 183), while, the detection rate of depressive symptoms was 9.89%(117/1 183). Age, level of interaction with children, self-rated health, perceived loneliness, and hearing health significantly influenced depressive symptoms among older adults residing in the community ( P<0.05). Individuals with moderate to severe hearing loss ( β=2.04, 95% CI: 1.47, 2.62) exhibited higher GDS-15 scores compared to those without hearing impairment. Furthermore, after correcting for sex, age, marital status, monthly per capita family income, education, residence, smoking status, alcohol use, use of psychotropic medication (anxiolytic or depressant), number of illness, self-health assessment, and autonomy, middle-aged and older adults with mild to moderate hearing loss ( OR=2.89, 95% CI: 1.76, 4.88) and severe hearing loss ( OR=5.79, 95% CI: 3.05, 11.01) demonstrated an increased likelihood of experiencing depression. Conclusions:The degree of hearing loss in community-dwelling middle-aged and elderly individuals is closely associated with the risk of depressive symptoms. Therefore, it is imperative to enhance hearing health screening and to provide mental health support to individuals with hearing loss, in order to mitigate the onset and progression of depressive symptoms.

ObjectiveTo identify immunogenic cell death （ICD）-related genes in hepatocellular carcinoma （HCC）， and to establish a scoring model based on these genes for predicting the prognosis and tumor microenvironment characteristics of HCC. MethodsThe Cancer Genome Atlas database was used to obtain HCC datasets， and heatmaps were used to display the expression of 57 ICD-related genes in HCC. A cluster analysis was conducted based on the expression of ICD-related genes， and two ICD subtypes （low and high ICD expression groups） were analyzed in terms of gene ontology enrichment analysis， Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes （KEGG） enrichment analysis， somatic mutation， and immune cell infiltration. The LASSO Cox regression risk model was constructed to evaluate its clinical application value， and a nomogram model was established to predict the 1-， 3-， and 5-year survival rates of patients. In addition， qRT-PCR was used to validate the expression levels of key genes in the model. The independent-samples t test was used for comparison between two groups， and the univariate and multivariate Cox regression analyses were used to determine prognostic factors among clinicopathological features. The Kaplan-Meier survival curve was used for prognostic analysis， and the Spearman rank correlation test was used for correlation analysis. ResultsThe low ICD expression group had a poorer prognosis， while the high ICD expression group had relatively favorable clinical outcomes （P=0.004）. Further analysis showed that the high ICD expression group was associated with an immune-active microenvironment， and the genes were mainly enriched in immune-related pathways such as immunoglobulin receptor binding， hematopoietic cell lineage， and B cell receptor. The results of somatic mutation analysis showed that the high ICD expression group had higher expression levels of CD274， CTLA4， HAVCR2， TIGIT， PDCD1， and PDCD1LG2 （all P<0.05）. A risk prediction model was established using 8 ICD-related genes， i.e.， HSP90AA1， ATG5， BAX， PPIA， HSPA4， TLR2， TREM1， and LY96， and this model showed a good predictive value across different clinical characteristics. The univariate and multivariate Cox regression analyses showed that age and risk score were independent prognostic factors for overall survival in the training set （both P<0.05）. The results of qRT-PCR showed that the relative expression levels of HSPA4 and REM1 in HCC tumor samples were significantly higher than those in adjacent tissue samples （both P<0.001）. For the patients with an increase in ICD risk score， the ICD risk score was negatively correlated with γδT cells （r=-0.29， P<0.05）， plasma cells （r=-0.3， P<0.05）， and CD8⁺T lymphocytes （r=-0.37， P<0.05） and was positively correlated with memory B cells （r=0.38， P<0.05）， resting dendritic cells （r=0.47， P<0.05）， and M0 macrophages （r=0.49， P<0.05）. ConclusionThis study identifies the ICD-related genes that are associated with the prognosis of HCC， which provides insights into the immune characteristics of different ICD expression profiles. The risk model and the nomogram model established in this study have a significant value for predicting the prognosis of HCC patients and guiding immunotherapy for HCC patients.
