Nonspecific peripheral T-cell lymphoma (PTCL-NOS) combined with pure red cell aplasia (PRCA) is reported by only few in China. This article described a patient with PTCL-NOS who presented with severe anemia as the initial symptom, accompanied by multiple lymphadenopathy. Laboratory tests confirmed decreased red blood cell count and reticulocyte proportion, markedly reduced bone marrow red blood cell proliferation, and markedly increased proportion of bone marrow CD3 +CD8 + T lymphocytes. On lymph node pathology examination, immunohistochemistry was consistent with PTCL-NOS, with positive TCRβ gene rearrangement. First-line chemotherapy with four courses of ECHOP regimen led to significant reductions in lymph node size, partial remission on whole-body computed tomography evaluation, normalization of hemoglobin and bone marrow hematopoietic erythroid proliferation, and absence of CD3 +CD8 + T lymphocytes in bone marrow. Currently, the patient remains to have good prognosis with maintenance oral lenalidomide.

Artificial intelligence-enhanced brain-computer interfaces (BCI) are expected to significantly improve the performance of traditional BCIs in multiple aspects, including usability, user experience, and user satisfaction, particularly in terms of intelligence. However, such AI-integrated or AI-based BCI systems may introduce new ethical issues. This paper first evaluated the potential of AI technology, especially deep learning, in enhancing the performance of BCI systems, including improving decoding accuracy, information transfer rate, real-time performance, and adaptability. Building on this, it was considered that AI-enhanced BCI systems might introduce new or more severe ethical issues compared to traditional BCI systems. These include the possibility of making users' intentions and behaviors more predictable and manipulable, as well as the increased likelihood of technological abuse. The discussion also addressed measures to mitigate the ethical risks associated with these issues. It is hoped that this paper will promote a deeper understanding and reflection on the ethical risks and corresponding regulations of AI-enhanced BCIs.

Cancer cachexia is a complex multifactorial disease that can lead to significant reduction of skeletal muscle mass. MicroRNAs (miRNAs) are non-coding RNAs that are closely related to the development of cancer cachexia muscle atrophy. Studies have shown that miRNAs play an important role in the occurrence and development of cancer cachexia muscle atrophy by regulating various signaling pathways, but the mechanism by which miRNAs mediate cancer cachexia muscle atrophy has not been fully clarified. A systematic investigation of the role of miRNAs in cancer cachexia muscle atrophy may provide useful references for the precise treatment of patients with cancer cachexia muscle atrophy.

Objectives:To investigate the factors influencing intraoperative blood loss in spinal metastatic tu-mor surgery and provide scientific evidence for personalized surgical planning and blood loss control measures in clinical practice.Methods:We retrospectively analyzed the clinical data of 223 patients with spinal metastatic tumors treated at the Spinal Surgery Department of Beijing Shijitan Hospital Affiliated to Capital Medical University from January 2019 to September 2024.The surgical methods included vertebroplasty,tumor resection or partial resection,vertebral body reconstruction and internal fixation,and palliative surgery.Data collected included patient demographics(age,sex,BMI,etc.),tumor characteristics(primary tumor type,vertebral metastasis location and involvement area,number of extraspinal metastases,etc.),surgical factors(surgical ap-proach,robotic assistance,operative time,etc.),and intraoperative blood loss.Univariate regression analysis was conducted on each of the above indicators,and multivariate regression analysis was performed on the in-dicators with statistical significance to identify the influence of each factor on intraoperative blood loss.Re-sults:The intraoperative blood loss was 300mL(10,1000mL).Among the 223 patients,the proportion of metastasis in the thoracic and lumbar vertebrae was relatively high,and the blood loss was relatively signifi-cant in hypervascular tumors.The amount of blood loss in the tumor resection or partial resection and verte-bral body reconstruction and internal fixation groups was greater than that in the other two groups.Univariate analysis revealed that BMI(P＜0.001),primary tumor type(P＜0.001),vertebral metastasis location(P＜0.001),verte-bral involvement area(P＜0.001),number of extraspinal metastases(P=0.03),surgical approach(P＜0.001),robotic assistance(P＜0.001),and operative time(P＜0.001)were associated with intraoperative blood loss.Multivariate analysis identified BMI(P＜0.001),primary tumor type(P=0.02),vertebral metastasis location(P=0.02)and involve-ment area(P=0.004),surgical approach(P=0.04),and operative time(P＜0.001)as the independent predictors of intraoperative blood loss.Conclusions:Intraoperative blood loss in spinal metastatic tumor surgery is influ-enced by multiple factors,including BMI,primary tumor type,vertebral metastasis location and involvement area,surgical approach,and operative time.Sufficient preoperative evaluation shall be carried out,appropriate surgical approach shall be selected,and surgical techniques shall be improved to shorten operative time.

Objective:To compare the chemical composition of decoction and granules of Sangju Decoction; To provide a method for quality evaluation of Sangju Decoction.Methods:HPLC was used to establish fingerprints, and a comprehensive comparative study was conducted on the traditional decoction and formula granules of Sangju Decoction from four aspects: chemical composition type, fingerprint similarity, chemical pattern recognition analysis, and representative index component content.Results:The fingerprint similarity of the 10 batches of traditional decoction was >0.988. 35 peaks were identified and 12 peaks were identified as common peaks (neochlorogenic acid for peak 7, chlorogenic acid for peak 10, cryptochlorogenic acid for peak 11, 1,3-dicaffeoylquinic acid for peak 13, rutin for peak 17, lenoside A for peak 19, lignan for peak 20, isochlorogenic acid B for peak 24, ammonium glycyrrhizate for peak 25). The fingerprint similarity of the formulation pellets was >0.983, and 29 characteristic peaks were identified. Compared with the traditional decoction, some batches of the granules lacked peaks 14, 26, 27, 30, 32 and 34, and clustering analysis (CA), principal component analysis (PCA), and orthogonal partial least squares discriminant analysis (OPLS-DA) could distinguish between the two. The contents of the 10 index components neochlorogenic acid, chlorogenic acid, cryptochlorogenic acid, 1,3-dicaffeoylquinic acid, forsythia ester glycoside A, grass glycosides, isochlorogenic acid B, 3,5-O-dicaffeoylquinic acid, forsythia glycosides, monkshood glycosides in the traditional soup were higher than that in the granules, and the contents of rutin and ammonium glycyrrhizate in the granules were higher than that in traditional decoction.Conclusions:The content and composition of traditional decoction and formula granules of Sangju Decoction are significantly different. The combination of fingerprinting and chemical pattern identification effectively can effectively evaluate the difference between traditional decoction and formula granules of Sangju Decoction, which can lay a foundation for the quality control and rational clinical application of formula granules of Sangju Decoction.

【Objective】 To construct an in-vitro model of erythrocyte antibody-mediated complement activation, and establish quantitative detection methods based on flow cytometry and spectrophotometry, so as to explore the correlation of anti-body titers and complement activation speed, and provide a methodological basis for studying the adverse transfusion reactions of anti-body mediated complement hemolysis. 【Methods】 Mouse monoclonal antibody that recognized human C3b and fluorescent secondary antibody were used to label C3b fragments on erythrocytes, and the deposition of C3b fragments after complement activation was detected by flow cytometry. The absorbance at 540 nm of the supernatant in the complement activation reaction system was measured by spectrophotometry as the amount of hemoglobin released was related to the absorbance. 【Results】 The complement activation system was constructed according to the ratio of 3% red blood cell suspension (mixed for 6 people) 1∶anti-Tj^a 1∶complement 2. The repeatability was good (P value>0.05) as different red blood cell mixtures had been used to repeat the detection reaction system. When using 32×, 64× and 128× dilutions of anti-Tj^a mediated complement activation, the deposition of C3b fragments has been detected by flow cytometry at 30 s, 1 min and 2 min, respectively, and MFI peaked at 5 min, 10 min and 30 min, respectively. No obvious hemolysis has been observed within 1.5 h. 【Conclusion】 In vitro model of anti-Tj^a-mediated complement activation demonstrates the speed of complement activation is related to the concentration of antibody. At a certain antibody concentration, the speed of complement activation has been slowed down, and no obvious hemolysis observed.

BACKGROUND: Most Chinese migrants have been faced with obstacles to getting access to local public health services. Young migrants among internal migrants make a major contribution to the economy. However, the establishment of their health records has been ignored. This research was aimed at exploring the status and associated factors of the establishment of health records among young Chinese migrants. METHODS: Data were obtained from the 2017 China Migrants Dynamic Survey (CMDS). Chi-square test and binary logistic regression were performed to investigate the associated factors of the establishment of health records among young Chinese migrants. RESULTS: Approximately 30.2% of young migrants had their health records established in inflow communities. Urban residence, medical insurance (insured), and lower average monthly household income were attributed to the establishment of more health records. Young migrants who were in northeast China and across provinces and immigrated for working or engaging in trade were less likely to have health records established. Young migrants who participated in social activities and public affairs activities and took type of people in touch as natives in the inflow area showed a higher possibility of establishing health records. Meanwhile, receiving health education and hearing about national basic public health services (BPHSs) were beneficial for establishing the health records of more young migrants. CONCLUSION This study showed that the health records of young migrants had a relatively low establishment rate. Sociodemographic and migration characteristics, health status, public health services, and social integration factors were all related to the health record establishment of young Chinese migrants.

BACKGROUND: Limited published research has examined the relationships of negative life events and coping styles with sleep quality in Chinese junior high school students. We aimed to investigate the prevalence of poor sleep quality and to clarify the role of coping styles between negative life events and sleep quality. METHODS: A cross-sectional study of 3081 students was conducted in Ganzhou City, Jiangxi Province, Southeastern China. Adolescent Self-Rating Life Events Checklist, Simplified Coping Style Questionnaire, and Pittsburg Sleep Quality Index were applied to assess negative life events, coping styles, and sleep quality, respectively. Descriptive analyses, independent-samples t tests, one-way analyses of variance, Pearson correlation analyses, and structural equation modeling (SEM) were applied to analyze the data. RESULTS: The prevalence of poor sleep quality was 26.7%. Negative life events (B = 0.038, P < 0.001) and negative coping style (B = 0.049, P < 0.001) demonstrated a positive association with poor sleep quality, while positive coping style indicated a negative association with poor sleep quality (B = -0.029, P < 0.001). Interactions of negative life events and coping styles with sleep quality were not found (all P > 0.05). The association between negative life events and sleep quality was mediated by negative coping styles. CONCLUSIONS Our results indicated that poor sleep quality was common in these Chinese adolescents. Negative life events and negative coping style were associated with an increased prevalence of poor sleep quality, while the positive coping style was related to a decreased prevalence of poor sleep quality. A negative coping style mediated the association between negative life events and sleep quality.
