Objective To explore the ^“contribution^” of different exposures to cardiovascular diseases at the population level and to construct a risk prediction model for the effective allocation of prevention resources. Methods The CHNS (China Health and Nutrition Survey) database was used. In 2009, 2011 and 2015, 9 899 permanent residents aged 35 to 75 years in 10 provinces and cities in the central and eastern regions (Beijing, Liaoning, Heilongjiang, Shanghai, Shandong, Henan, Hubei, Hunan, Guangxi and Jiangsu) were selected as the research subjects. A single-factor analysis was conducted to examine the risk factors including sex, age, BMI, marital status, urban/rural area, sleep time, smoking, alcohol consumption, diabetes, education, and health insurance. The multifactor-adjusted population-attributable risk of certain risk factors was also estimated based on logistic regression analysis. The cardiovascular disease (CVD) risk prediction model was developed using a modeling group of 6 927 randomly selected individuals (70%) and a validation group of 2 974 individuals (30%). The model's differentiation and calibration were assessed using the receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve and the Hosmer-Lemeshow goodness-of-fit test. Results The results showed that the adjusted population attributable risk and 95% confidence interval for BMI, sleep time, smoking, drinking and diabetes were 32.20% (27.67%-36.89%), 7.90% (1.68%-16.58%), 18.56% (11.35%-26.24%), 6.47% (0.11%-13.25%) and 5.73% (4.42%-7.03%). The results of multivariate adjusted population attributable risk percentage showed that BMI was the dominant cause of cardiovascular diseases, followed by smoking, sleep time, drinking and diabetes. The low-risk prevalence rate was 18.44%, the higher-risk prevalence rate was 14.19%, and the high-risk prevalence rate was 42.52%. The area under ROC curve AUC was 0.711, P<0.001, and Hosmer-Lemeshow goodness of fit test showed P=0.257. Conclusion In the future, it is important to focus on high-risk groups , control body mass index to the normal range, and reduce smoking , which is of great significance for the prevention of cardiovascular diseases. The risk prediction model has the value of good differentiation and practicability , and can provide certain prediction ability for the prevention of cardiovascular diseases.

Ischemic stroke (IS) is a globally life-threatening disease. Presently, few therapeutic medicines are available for treating IS, and rt-PA is the only drug approved by the US Food and Drug Administration (FDA) in the US. In fact, many agents showing excellent neuroprotection but no blood flow-improving activity in animals have not achieved ideal clinical efficacy, while thrombolytic drugs only improving blood flow without neuroprotection have limited their wider application. To address these challenges and meet the huge unmet clinical need, we have designed and identified a novel compound AAPB with dual effects of neuroprotection and cerebral blood flow improvement. AAPB significantly reduced cerebral infarction and neural function deficit in tMCAO rats, pMCAO rats, and IS rhesus monkeys, as well as displayed exceptional safety profiles and excellent pharmacokinetic properties in rats and dogs. AAPB has now entered phase I of clinical trials fighting IS in China.

Objective:To systematically evaluate the application of patient-reported outcome measures (PROMs) in adult lung transplant recipients, and to explore their clinical value in assessing quality of life following transplantation.Methods:This study was a systematic review. Relevant studies published between January 2014 and July 2024 were searched in the PubMed and OVID Medline databases using keywords such as "lung transplantation" "quality of life" "HRQoL" "health indice" "patient-reported outcome measure" "questionnaire" "profile" "scale" "score" and "survey". Only English-language articles were included. Eligible studies were those that applied PROMs to assess quality of life in adult lung transplant recipients and were approved by ethics committees. Reviews, case reports, abstracts, and studies involving transplant candidates or recipients of lung-liver or lung-kidney combined transplantation were excluded. Data extracted included basic study information, study design, participant characteristics, and PROM usage. Frequently used PROMs and lung transplant-specific PROMs were summarized, and results with clearly reported time points were analyzed.Results:A total of 63 studies were included, comprising 54 (85.7%) observational studies and 9 (14.3%) interventional studies. The majority of studies originated from the United States (18 studies, 28.6%). A total of 55 different PROMs were identified, including 30 generic and 25 disease-specific instruments. The five most frequently used PROMs were the Short Form 36 (SF-36; 30 studies, 47.6%), the EuroQol 5 Dimension (EQ-5D; 12 studies, 19.0%), the St. George's Respiratory Questionnaire (SGRQ; 11 studies, 17.5%), the Hospital Anxiety and Depression Scale (HADS; 7 studies, 11.1%), and the modified Medical Research Council dyspnea scale (mMRC; 5 studies, 7.9%). Lung transplant-specific PROMs included the Lung Transplant Quality of Life questionnaire (LT-QOL), the Lung Transplant Valued Life Activities (LT-VLA) scale, and the Pulmonary-Specific Quality of Life Scale (PQLS), which were applied in only 6 studies (9.5%). Across studies, lung transplantation was associated with significant improvements in recipients' quality of life, sustained over a follow-up period of 3 to 60 months.Conclusions:A wide range of PROMs have been employed to assess health-related quality of life in lung transplant recipients; however, transplant-specific PROMs remain relatively scarce. PROMs provide valuable insights for reflecting and dynamically monitoring long-term quality of life, supplementing evidence for clinical decision-making, and optimizing post-transplant care strategies.

Objective:To investigate the effects of zinc oxide nanoparticles (ZnO-NPs) on neutrophil hypoxia and pyroptosis through nucleotide binding of oligomeric domain-like receptor protein 3 (NLRP3) inflammasome, and to analyze the role of pyroptosis on respiratory tract inflammotion induced by ZnO-NPs.Methods:In October 2022, primary cultured neutrophils were obtained from the abdominal aortic blood of SPF adult healthy SD rats. The neutrophils were treated with ZnO-NPs solution (0, 5, 10, 20 μg/ml) at different concentrations, and hypoxia group (5% O 2) was set up. Hypoxia and reactive oxygen species (ROS) levels were detected by flow cytometry, and the expression levels of NLRP3, apoptosis-associated speck-like protein containing a CARD (ASC), cleaved Caspase-1 were measured by Western blot. The activity of lactic dehydrogenase (LDH) in the cell supernatant was measured by coloration, and the content of interleukin-1 beta (IL-1β) in cell culture supernatant was detected by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) . Results:Compared with the control group, hypoxia and ROS levels of neutrophils in hypoxia group and ZnO-NPs groups were significantly increased ( P<0.05), and NLRP3, ASC, cleaved Caspase-1 protein expression levels, LDH activity and IL-1β content were significantly increased ( P<0.05). Compared with hypoxia group, hypoxia and ROS levels of neutrophils in 5 μg/ml and 10 μg/ml ZnO-NPs groups were significantly decreased ( P<0.05), NLRP3, ASC, cleaved Caspase-1 protein expression levels, LDH activity, and IL-1β content were decreased significantly ( P<0.05). There were no significant differences in hypoxia, ROS levels, ASC, cleaved Caspase-1 protein expression levels, LDH activity, and IL-1β content between the 20 μg/ml ZnO-NPs group and the hypoxia group ( P>0.05) . Conclusion:ZnO-NPs treatment may activate the NLRP3 inflammasome to induce pyroptosis of neutrophils which may be related to ROS and hypoxia.

Objective:To construct a quality evaluation index system for postoperative rehabilitation in children with developmental dislocation of the hip (DDH) .Methods:From August to November 2021, a quality evaluation index system for postoperative rehabilitation in children with DDH was established through literature review, group discussion, and Delphi expert consultation. The analytic hierarchy process was used to determine the weights of various indicators. The positive coefficient of experts was expressed by the effective response rate of the questionnaire. The authority level of experts was represented by the authority coefficient ( Cr) , which was determined by the expert judgment coefficient ( Ca) and the expert familiarity level ( Cs) . The degree of coordination of expert opinions was represented by the Kendall harmony coefficient (Kendall's W) . The degree of concentration of expert opinions was represented by the average score of importance assignment, coefficient of variation, and full score rate. Results:The effective response rates of the two rounds of expert consultation questionnaires were 90.00% and 100.00%, respectively. The Cr of experts in two rounds were 0.785 and 0.815, and the Kendall harmony coefficients were 0.098-0.193 and 0.147-0.212 ( P<0.05) . In the second round of expert consultation, the average scores of importance assignment for all levels of indicators were≥4.0, with coefficients of variation of 0-0.24 and a full score rate of ≥50%. The final quality evaluation index system for postoperative rehabilitation in children with DDH included 3 first-level indicators, 9 second-level indicators, and 37 third-level indicators. In the consistency test results of each indicator at all levels, all of the CI were <0.001, and all of the CR were<0.001. Conclusions:The construction process of the quality evaluation index system for postoperative rehabilitation in children with DDH is scientific, and the weight distribution of the indicators is reasonable, which can be used as an effective tool for evaluating the postoperative rehabilitation quality of DDH children.
