[摘 要] 目的：探讨胃肝样腺癌（HAS）的临床病理特征与免疫微环境异质性，筛选预后标志物，阐释其高侵袭性与疗效差的机制，为精准诊疗策略提供理论依据。方法:​​ 回顾性收集2013年1月至2025年5月期间海军军医大学第一附属医院与第二附属医院收治的65例HAS患者的临床信息及病理资料。采用免疫组织化学技术检测HAS​​肝样分化标志物、神经内分泌标志物​​等分子表达情况，通过Kaplan-Meier生存分析法明确与预后相关的靶点。利用多色免疫荧光技术鉴定肿瘤区域内免疫细胞亚群分布情况，以阐明其免疫微环境特征。结果：65例患者中，男性54例（83.1%），女性11例（16.9%），中位年龄68岁。肿瘤好发于贲门（40%），其次为胃窦（32.3%）和胃体（27.7%）。中位随访时间23.18个月，15例患者死亡，46例生存，4例失访。HAS的胃镜及手术标本大体观呈灰白色实性质硬肿物，镜下可见中低分化胃腺癌与肝细胞癌（HCC）样分化区交错分布。表达神经内分泌相关分子的HAS患者呈现出更多的淋巴结转移数量及更短的总生存期。免疫微环境解析显示，HAS总体缺乏免疫细胞浸润，呈现“冷肿瘤”特征；免疫细胞主要聚集于胃癌腺体周围区域，而在HCC样分化区域罕见淋巴细胞浸润。结论：HAS侵袭性强，根治性手术是主要治疗手段；神经内分泌转化提示不良预后，是个体化治疗的关键标志；免疫细胞浸润缺乏，可能是其免疫治疗响应不佳的原因。

BACKGROUND:Collagen combined with microneedling therapy has gradually become an important means of improving skin photoaging.OBJECTIVE:To summarize and explore the main mechanism and clinical application status of collagen combined with microneedle therapy.METHODS:PubMed,China National Knowledge Infrastructure,and ScienceDirect databases were searched for Chinese and English literature published before August 2024.Chinese and English search terms were"ultraviolet radiation,photoaging,collagen,microneedling,clinical applications."Finally,74 articles were included for summary.RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:Collagen treats skin photoaging through mechanisms such as inhibiting matrix metalloproteinase expression,retaining skin moisture,and reducing melanin formation.Microneedles can better promote the penetration of collagen into deep layers of the skin,breaking down the skin's barrier and increasing the absorption rate.Collagen combined with microneedles has various beneficial effects for treating skin photoaging,such as whitening,anti-wrinkle,improving skin elasticity,shrinking pores,and repairing skin barriers.It also has the advantages of easy operation,significant effects,and high safety.Currently,the research on collagen combined with microneedling therapy is still in its early stages,and achieving clinical application may become a key research direction in the future.The clinical application of collagen combined with microneedles for the treatment of photoaging still faces many challenges,such as exploring the optimal mechanical structure and materials of microneedles,selecting appropriate microneedle types,and insufficient clinical evidence that collagen combined with microneedles can further delay the treatment of skin photoaging.

Objective To explore the distribution characteristics of allergen positivity rates and related influencing factors among children with allergic rhinitis in Shanxi Province, and to provide a scientific basis for the prevention, diagnosis, and treatment of allergic rhinitis in children in this area. Methods A total of 1 376 pediatric patients from Shanxi Province, who visited the Department of Otolaryngology of Shanxi Children's Hospital and underwent serum-specific immunoglobulin E (IgE) testing between March 2024 and March 2025, were selected. The positive rates of common allergens were analyzed, and the sensitization differences of allergens among different age cohorts were compared. The risk factors influencing the occurrence of allergic rhinitis in children were explored. Results The test results showed that 1,258 cases were positive for inhalant allergens, with a positive rate of 91.42%, while 855 cases tested positive for ingested allergens, with a positive rate of 62.14%. The top four inhalant allergens with the highest positive rates were Artemisia (38.01%), short ragweed (33.94%), willow/beech/oak/walnut (23.26%), and cat dander (18.82%). The top four ingested allergens with the highest positive rates were milk (24.56%), egg white (22.89%), peanut/soybean (22.60%), and cashew/pistachio/hazelnut/almond/walnut (18.60%). Among the inhalant allergens in children aged ≤ 16 years old, household dust mites had the highest sensitivity, followed by dust mites. Chicken protein and pistachios/cashews/almonds/hazelnuts/walnuts were more common among food allergens in children aged ≤ 5 years old, while milk and egg white were more common among food allergens in children aged 6-16 years old. The results of the multivariate logistic regression analysis showed that urban residence (OR=1.260, 95%CI: 1.009-1.574), a meat-based diet (OR=1.525, 95%CI: 1.218-1.908), presence of smoking/passive smoking (OR=2.033, 95%CI: 1.625-2.543), history of asthma (OR=4.122, 95%CI: 2.655-6.400), history of allergies (OR=2.016, 95%CI: 1.568-2.592), comorbid adenoid hypertrophy (OR=2.248, 95%CI: 1.529-3.304), and parental allergic rhinitis (OR=1.723, 95%CI: 1.298-2.289) were risk factors for allergic rhinitis in children. Conclusion The allergen spectrum of allergic rhinitis in children in Shanxi region is predominantly inhalant. Mugwort, short ragweed, willow/beech/oak/walnut, and cat dander are the main inhalant allergens, while milk, egg white, peanut/soybean, and cashew/pistachio/hazelnut/almond/walnut are the primary ingested allergens. The allergen positivity rate exhibits characteristic changes with age. Factors such as residing in urban areas, a meat-based diet, and a history of asthma are influential factors in the prevalence of allergic rhinitis among children in the Shanxi region.

ObjectiveTo investigate the effects and potential mechanisms of Babaodan （BBD） against acetaminophen （APAP）-induced acute liver injury （ALI） based on transcriptomics. MethodsA total of 36 male C57BL/6 mice were randomly divided into 6 groups （n=6 per group）： normal group， model group， N-acetylcysteine group （NAC， 120 mg·kg^-1）， and BBD low-， medium-， and high-dose groups （BBD-L， BBD-M， BBD-H groups， 75， 150， 300 mg·kg^-1， respectively）. Except for the normal group， all other groups were subjected to APAP-induced ALI. The serum levels of aspartate aminotransferase （AST）， alanine aminotransferase （ALT）， total cholesterol （TC）， triglyceride （TG）， and low-density lipoprotein cholesterol （LDL-C） were measured in each group. Hepatic levels or activities of malondialdehyde （MDA） and glutathione peroxidase （GSH-Px） were detected using commercial kits. Hematoxylin-eosin （HE） staining was performed to evaluate the degree of liver histopathological damage. Transcriptomic analysis was employed to screen differentially expressed genes （DEGs）， and Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes （KEGG） pathway enrichment analysis was performed to identify differential pathways involved in BBD intervention against ALI. Real-time quantitative polymerase chain reaction （Real-time PCR） and Western blot were applied to validate the expression of differential genes and related pathway proteins. Additionally， glucose （GLU） consumption， as well as lactate （LD） and adenosine triphosphate （ATP） content were assessed across all mouse groups. ResultsPharmacodynamic evaluation showed that， compared with the normal group， the model group exhibited significantly elevated serum levels of ALT， AST， TC， TG， and LDL-C （P<0.01）， significantly increased MDA level （P<0.01）， and significantly decreased GSH-Px level （P<0.05）. Compared with the model group， BBD intervention at different doses significantly reduced the serum levels of ALT， AST， TC， TG， and LDL-C （P<0.05， P<0.01）， increased GSH-Px level （P<0.05， P<0.01）， significantly decreased MDA level （P<0.01）， and ameliorated hepatic histopathological injury. Liver transcriptomic analysis revealed that， following high-dose BBD intervention， the core genes were mainly enriched in pathways related to inflammatory responses and energy metabolic reprogramming， including the interleukin-17 （IL-17） signaling pathway， the phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase （PI3K）/protein kinase B （Akt） signaling pathway， fructose and mannose metabolism， and glycolysis. Real-time PCR validation demonstrated that， compared with the normal group， the mRNA expression levels of glycolysis-related genes ［hexokinase 1 （HK1）， hexokinase 2 （HK2）， 6-phosphofructo-2-kinase/fructose-2，6-bisphosphatase 3 （PFKFB3）， 6-phosphofructo-2-kinase/fructose-2，6-bisphosphatase 4 （PFKFB4）， pyruvate kinase M （PKM）， and lactate dehydrogenase A （LDHA）］， as well as inflammatory cytokines ［tumor necrosis factor-α （TNF-α）， interleukin-6 （IL-6）， and interleukin-1β （IL-1β）］ were significantly upregulated in the model group （P<0.05， P<0.01）. Compared with the model group， the BBD-H group showed significantly decreased mRNA expression of HK1， HK2， PFKFB3， PFKFB4， PKM， LDHA， TNF-α， IL-6， and IL-1β （P<0.05， P<0.01）. Western blot results indicated that， compared with the normal group， the model group had significantly increased expression of glycolysis-related proteins ［glucose transporter 1 （GLUT1）， HK1， PFKFB3， and PKM］， inflammatory proteins ［interleukin-18 （IL-18）， TNF-α， and IL-1β］， and phosphorylated （p）-PI3K and p-Akt proteins （P<0.05， P<0.01）. Compared with the model group， the BBD-H group exhibited significantly decreased expression of GLUT1， HK1， PFKFB3， PKM， IL-18， TNF-α， IL-1β， p-PI3K， and p-Akt （P<0.05， P<0.01）. Metabolic indicator measurements showed that， compared with the model group， the BBD-H group showed significantly reduced GLU consumption， LD and ATP content （P<0.05， P<0.01）. ConclusionBBD may alleviate APAP-induced ALI through dual regulation of metabolic reprogramming and inflammatory responses， potentially via inhibition of the PI3K/Akt signaling pathway.

Objective:This study aims to explore the clinical characteristics of patients with multiple myeloma concurrently presenting with a second primary malignancy.By analyzing the causes based on literature reports,this study aims to deepen the understanding of multiple primary cancers in multiple myeloma patients,and provide some assistance for auxiliary examinations and risk assessments of multiple myeloma patients.Methods:A retrospective analysis was conducted on the clinical data of four patients with multiple myeloma who also had a second primary malignancy admitted to The Second Affiliated Hospital,Chongqing Medical University.Each patient was diagnosed with multiple myeloma through bone marrow aspiration and had a second primary malignancy confirmed through pathological biopsy.Results:The onset age of the 4 patients ranged from 42 to 81 years old;three were males and one was female.One patient had smoldering myeloma with a second primary hematological malignancy(follicular lymphoma),while the other 3 patients had concurrent solid malignancies,including bladder cancer,esophageal cancer,and breast cancer,respectively.Conclusion:Multiple myeloma accompanied by a second primary malignancy is rare,and early pathological biopsy is necessary for diagnosis to avoid missed diagnosis.

Objective:To analyze the infection status and influencing factors of Helicobacter pylori ( Hp) in healthy children. Methods:This is a cross-sectional study. The data of 684 children aged 3 to 14 years who underwent the 13C urea breath test in the Health Management Center of Fuwai Central China Cardiovascular Hospital from December 2022 to December 2023 were retrospectively collected, and 652 of them who met the criteria were included in the analysis. According to whether they were infected with Hp, the children were divided into the infected group and the non-infected group, and the differences in age, gender, living habits and other aspects between the two groups were compared. Multivariate logistic regression analysis was used to analyze the factors influencing Hp infection. Results:Among the 652 children, there were 134 cases in the infected group and 518 cases in the non-infected group, with an Hp infection rate of 20.6%. The Hp infection rate showed an upward tendency with age. The Hp infection rates in children aged 3 to 5 years, 6 to 11 years, and 12 to 14 years were 12.6%, 22.0%, and 25.2% respectively ( χ 2=9.862, P=0.007). Univariate analysis showed that the proportions of Hp infection were higher in children who never washed their hands, ate in school cafeterias, did not have separate meals, were fed with chewed food, bit their fingers or toys, lived with relatives who had a history of gastrointestinal diseases, had low family income, had parents with low educational level, and were mixed/artificially fed during infancy, which were 26.1%, 24.1%, 25.4%, 25.7%, 26.0%, 25.8%, 25.1%, 23.7%, and 23.6% respectively (all P<0.05). Multivariate analysis showed that separate meals, good handwashing habits, and high family income were protective factors against Hp infection ( OR=0.689, 0.779, 0.602, P=0.004, 0.013, 0.019), while feeding with chewed food was a risk factor for Hp infection ( OR=1.998, P=0.001). Conclusion:The Hp infection rate of children undergoing health examination in Zhengzhou is at low level, and the main influencing factors are separate meals, handwashing habits, feeding with chewed food, and family income.

Objective:To investigate the incidence of hypomineralized second primary molars (HSPM) and deciduous teeth caries in school-aged children of Kaifeng City, and to discuss the association between HSPM and deciduous teeth caries, providing scientific guidance for clinical prevention and treatment.Methods:A cross-sectional study was carried out on first-grade children aged 6-7 years in five primary schools chosen from the eastern, western, southern, northern, and central areas of Kaifeng City by cluster random sampling method. The European Academy of Pediatric Dentistry criteria was used for scoring HSPM. The International Caries Detection and Assessment System (ICDAS-Ⅱ) was used to evaluate caries status.Results:This cross-sectional study was with a sample of 913 children. The prevalence of HSPM was 8.76% (80/913), with 39 boys and 41 girls, the most common type of which was atypical caries [35.00% (28/80)]. Regarding the distribution of HSPM, the incidence in maxilla [6.13% (56/913)] showed no statistically significant difference with that in the mandible [5.70% (52/913)] (χ2=0.16, P=0.692). In terms of severity, 56 cases were severe and 24 cases were mild. The association between HSPM and deciduous teeth caries was analyzed. The results showed that 56 had caries on their second primary molars among the 80 HSPM children. Children with HSPM had an increased risk of second deciduous molar decay compared to non-HSPM children ( OR=1.94, 95 %CI: 1.18-3.19, P<0.05); meanwhile, the deciduous teeth of HSPM children were more prone to suffer caries than those of non-HSPM children ( OR=2.33, 95 %CI: 1.26-4.29, P<0.05). Conclusions:The HSPM prevalence in school-aged children of Kaifeng City was 8.76%. Child with HSPM was more likely to have deciduous teeth caries than non-HSPM child. Special attention should be paid to children with HSPM after the eruption of affected molars.

Objective:To investigate the trends in insulin resistance, as represented by the triglyceride-glucose index (TyG index), among Chinese adult residents from 2010 to 2018 and to explore influencing factors.Methods:China Chronic Disease and Risk Factor Surveillance was conducted in 2010, 2013, and 2018, using a multi-stage stratified cluster random sampling method across all 31 provinces (autonomous regions and municipalities) in China. This study sampled 98 712 adults in 2010, 176 534 adults in 2013, and 184 876 adults in 2018, all aged ≥18 years, totaling 406 933 participants. Individuals with a TyG index > P75 were classified as having insulin resistance. The mean TyG index and the prevalence of insulin resistance were calculated for different years, sexes, age groups, provinces (autonomous regions and municipalities), and subgroups for 2018. Linear and logistic regression models were used to test trends in means and rates over time, and multivariate logistic regression models were conducted to analyze potential factors associated with insulin resistance. All analyses were adjusted for complex sampling weights based on the study design. Results:From 2010 to 2018, the mean TyG index among Chinese adults increased from 8.44±0.63 to 8.70±0.64, with significant upward trends observed across different age groups, sexes, and urban-rural residencies (all P<0.001). The mean TyG index was higher among males, urban residents, and those aged 45-59. There were significant differences in the mean TyG indices and prevalence of insulin resistance across provinces (autonomous regions and municipalities) (all P<0.05). Higher insulin resistance prevalence was independently associated with being male, aged ≥45 years, living in urban areas, excessive alcohol consumption, and insufficient physical activity (all P<0.05). Conclusions:From 2010 to 2018, the level of insulin resistance, as indicated by the TyG index, showed an increasing trend among Chinese adults. Males, individuals aged ≥45 years, urban residents, and individuals with unhealthy lifestyles such as excessive alcohol consumption or insufficient physical activity should be the focus of efforts to prevent and control metabolic diseases related to insulin resistance.
