ObjectiveTo evaluate the pregnancy outcomes of assisted reproductive technology （ART） in women with a history of thyroid cancer who retained fertility intentions after completing cancer treatment. MethodsA retrospective analysis was performed on 61 patients with a history of thyroid cancer who underwent in vitro fertilization/intracytoplasmic sperm microinjection and embryo transfer （IVF/ICSI-ET）. These patients were included as the case group. A total of 122 non-cancer patients who received ART during the same period were selected as the control group using 1∶2 matching based on age and oocyte retrieval time. Baseline characteristics， outcomes of the first ART cycle， and cumulative pregnancy outcomes were compared between the two groups. ResultsThere was no significant difference in the basic data， the total amount of gonadotropin （Gn） and the days of use between the case group and the control group （P>0.05）. However， the case group had significantly fewer retrieved oocytes， mature oocytes （MII）， lower fertilization and cleavage rates， and fewer transferable and high-quality embryos， as well as fewer embryos transferred during the first cycle （P < 0.05）. However， there was no significant difference in the rate of first embryo implantation and first clinical pregnancy between the two groups （P>0.05）. In the analysis of cumulative outcomes， the two groups did not show statistically significant differences in the cumulative pregnancy rate， clinical pregnancy rate per transfer cycle， the number of oocyte retrieval cycles required per live birth， the number of embryo transfer cycles required per live birth， and the number of embryos used for each live birth （P>0.05）. However， the cumulative live birth rate was significantly lower in the case group compared to the control group （P=0.005）. ConclusionAfter treatment for thyroid cancer， when ART is used to help pregnant women， the pregnancy outcome is comparable to that of women without tumors. Individualized reproductive management and timely fertility preservation strategies are recommended to optimize reproductive outcomes in this population.

Primary biliary cholangitis （PBC） is an autoimmune liver disease characterized by intrahepatic cholestasis， while fatigue is a common symptom of PBC that significantly affects the quality of life of patients. The pathogenesis of fatigue is complex and may be associated with the factors such as cholestasis-induced inflammation， gut microbiota dysbiosis， brain structural and functional abnormalities， and mitochondrial dysfunction. At present， first-line therapies and liver transplantation have a limited effect in alleviating fatigue， and there is still a lack of standardized comprehensive assessment system. Emerging drugs and non-pharmaceutical interventions， including lifestyle modifications， have shown potential application prospects. This article systematically reviews the research advances in the clinical manifestations， pathogenesis， clinical assessment， and intervention of fatigue in PBC patients， in order to provide a reference for optimizing treatment strategies and promoting the research and development of new therapies.

Mental health records have been well utilized in various industries or groups both within and outside the mili-tary.However,due to insufficient attention,lack of technology,and poor talent stability,the effectiveness of mental health re-cords is low.This article investigates psychological cadres during a major task to understand the current situation of the establish-ment and use of mental health records in the military.It finds that there is a phenomenon of"building but not flowing,storing but not using",and identifies issues such as inconsistent standards,poor circulation,insufficient content,and disordered manage-ment.Based on this,the article discusses the safeguards and basic content for the construction of mental health records.The dis-cussion concludes that mental health record content should include general information about officers and soldiers,the develop-ment of psychological services,records of psychological rehabilitation(including psychological measurement results,etc.),and other supplementary materials(such as physical health status,personal life history,etc.).It is necessary to standardize mental health measurement,mental health education,mental health training,psychological counseling interviews,psychiatric assess-ment,and psychiatric rehabilitation.Support must be provided in terms of systems,personnel,and technology,and a dynamic management and use mechanism and information security control responsibilities must be implemented.This will promote the or-derly development of military mental health work and,in turn,ensure the mental health of officers and soldiers.

Objective To mine and analyze signals of acute kidney injury(AKI)related to drugs,comprehensively summarize the potential risk drugs,and provide a reference for clinically safe medication.Methods The AKI reports from January 2004 to September 2023 in the US FDA Adverse Event Reporting System(FAERS)were retrieved.Disproportionality methods were used to explore the relationship between drugs and AKI,and demographic information,time to onset,and patient outcomes were analyzed.Results Out of 1 253 drugs,159 were identified as AKI signal drugs.Among these,there were 49 antimicrobial agents(30.82%),including 35 antibiotics and 14 antiviral agents;33 antineoplastic agents(20.75%);and 25 hypotensive agents(15.72%).Drug-related AKI occurred mostly in the elderly,and the male-to-female ratio was 124∶100.The median time to onset for AKI related to antibiotics was≤8 d,with the third quartile≤21 d.Rivaroxaban and aspirin had higher proportions of death reports,with 33.03%and 31.44%respectively.Conclusions A multitude of drugs pose a risk for acute kidney injury,necessitating caution in their clinical application and the implementation of monitoring of renal function.The elderly are a high-risk group for drug-related AKI,and there are more males than females.For antibiotics,the first 21 days are the key monitoring period.For drugs that require long-term use,regular monitoring is necessary.

Objective:To investigate the efficacy of radiotherapy in patients with advanced esophageal cancer receiving first-line chemoimmunotherapy.Methods:A retrospective analysis was conducted on the data of 137 patients with Stage Ⅳ esophageal squamous cell carcinoma (ESCC) treated at our hospital from January 2018 to May 2023. These patients were divided into two groups: a group treated with first-line chemoimmunotherapy combined with radiotherapy (chemoimmunotherapy + radiotherapy group, n = 43) and a group treated with only chemoimmunotherapy ( n = 94). Inverse probability of treatment weighting (IPTW) was applied to balance baseline characteristics between the groups. With overall survival (OS) and progression-free survival (PFS) as study endpoints, the survival data were analyzed using the Kaplan-Meier method, the log-rank test, and the Cox regression method. Results:Before calibration, the chemoimmunotherapy + radiotherapy group significantly outperformed the sole chemoimmunotherapy group in median PFS (13.6 months vs. 7.0 months; HR: 0.501, 95% CI: 0.309-0.811, P = 0.005). After calibration using the COX proportional-hazards model for age, gender, Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group (ECOG) performance status, smoking history, T/N/M stage, and tumor location, the chemoimmunotherapy + radiotherapy group still had significant advantages in PFS (14.7 months vs. 7.0 months; HR: 0.441, 95% CI: 0.261-0.745, P = 0.002). IPTW analysis further confirmed this trend (13.9 months vs. 7.0 months; HR: 0.492, 95% CI: 0.304-0.795, P < 0.001). Specifically, the median OS of the chemoimmunotherapy + radiotherapy group demonstrated significant improvement in all analyses: pre-calibration (29.5 months vs. 18.0 months; HR: 0.507, 95% CI: 0.297-0.867, P = 0.013), after calibration using the Cox model (27.5 months vs. 16.7 months; HR: 0.470, 95% CI: 0.266-0.830, P = 0.009), and after calibration using IPTW (29.5 months vs. 16.9 months; HR: 0.448, 95% CI: 0.262-0.764, P < 0.001). Conclusions:The combination of radiotherapy and first-line chemoimmunotherapy can significantly improve survival outcomes of patients with advanced ESCC, suggesting its potential as a standard treatment strategy.

OBJECTIVE To investigate the improvement effect and mechanism of desloratadine citrate disodium in mice with hypersensitivity pneumonitis(HP).METHODS Sixty mice were randomly divided into blank control group(normal saline),model group(normal saline),prednisone group(positive control,20 mg/kg)and desloratadine citrate disodium low-,medium-and high-dose groups(0.5,1,2 mg/kg),with 10 mice in each group.Except for the blank control group,mice in other groups were intraperitoneally injected with ovalbumin(OVA)and exposed to OVA inhalation to establish the HP model.On day 22 post-modeling,mice in each group were administered the corresponding drugs or normal saline,once a day,for 11 consecutive days.After the last administration,lung function and airway hyperreactivity were assessed.The levels of interleukin-1β(IL-1β),IL-4 and IL-6 in serum as well as the levels of IL-8,IL-13 and IL-17A in bronchoalveolar lavage fluid were determined.Pathological changes in lung tissue of mice were evaluated using Masson staining.Furthermore,the expressions of fibrosis-related proteins,including transforming growth factor β1(TGF-β1),type Ⅲ collagen(Col-Ⅲ)and fibronectin(FN)were determined in lung tissues.RESULTS Compared with the blank control group,the model group showed significant deterioration in lung function(P＜0.01),while airway resistance and serum levels of IL-1β,IL-4,IL-6 and the levels of IL-8,IL-13 and IL-17A in the bronchoalveolar lavage fluid were increased significantly(P＜0.01).The lung tissues exhibited alveolar collapse,atrophy,and structural disarray,along with the formation of extensive deposits of blue collagen fibers,the percentage of positive staining increased significantly(P＜0.01).Additionally,the expression levels of TGF-β1,Col-Ⅲ,and FN proteins in the lung tissues were also increased significantly(P＜0.01).After intervention with desloratadine citrate disodium,the pathological changes in the lung tissues of mice in each dosage group of desloratadine citrate disodium showed varying degrees of improvement,and most of the aforementioned indicator levels were significantly reversed(P＜0.05 or P＜0.01).CONCLUSIONS Desloratadine citrate disodium can improve the lung function and airway hyperreactivity of HP mice,inhibit the release of inflammatory factors in serum and bronchoalveolar lavage fluid,and reduce the deposition of collagen fibers.Its mechanism of action may be related to anti-inflammatory,immunomodulatory,and antifibrotic effects.

A retrospective analysis was conducted on data from five patients comprehensively diagnosed with emphysematous osteomyelitis (EO) based on clinical, imaging, microbiological culture, and surgical findings at Hebei Medical University Third Hospital from December 2020 to May 2024. Among these five cases, there were three males and two females, aged between 11 and 69 years. Three patients had infection risk factors (two with diabetes and one with anemia), while two had no documented risk factors in their medical history. All patients presented with fever, localized pain at the infection site, and elevated inflammatory markers. Site of incidence: EO affected the lumbar spine in three cases, the ilium in one case, and the femur in one case. Pathogenic microorganisms: The causative agents included Klebsiella pneumoniae (two cases), Escherichia coli (one case), Burkholderia cepacia (one case), and a mixed infection of Staphylococcus aureus and Acinetobacter baumannii (one case). Imaging findings: Among the three patients who underwent X-ray examinations, one showed normal results, while two exhibited bone destruction. CT scans of all five cases revealed the characteristic "pumice sign" without periosteal reaction or osteosclerosis. MRI, performed on four patients, demonstrated bone destruction, swelling of surrounding soft tissues, and soft tissue abscess formation. Treatment and outcomes: Four patients underwent surgical debridement combined with perioperative antibiotic therapy. Of these, three recovered well, while one achieved good infection control but suffered severe joint destruction. One patient died after treatment was discontinued. The clinical and laboratory findings of EO resemble those of common acute osteomyelitis; however, EO has distinct imaging characteristics. Timely diagnosis, aggressive surgical debridement, and strong, targeted antibiotic therapy can result in favorable outcomes. Conversely, delayed diagnosis and treatment may lead to severe complications or death.

Objective: To explore the association between mediterranean diet (MD) patterns and dental caries among children and adolescents with neurodevelopmental disorders (NDD), so as to provide a basis for developing scientific anti caries strategies related to diet. Methods: From December 2021 to June 2024, a questionnaire survey, a three day 24 hour dietary review survey, oral health examination, physical development measurement and Childhood Autism Rating Scale (CARS) evaluation were conducted involving 147 children and adolescents aged 2-22 years with NDD from nine special education schools and rehabilitation institutions in Tianjin. Group comparisons were carried out using the Mann-Whitney U test, Chi-square test, or Fisher s exact probability method. The correlation between dietary quality and dental caries was analyzed by adopting multiple linear regression analysis and restricted cubic spline. Results: There were 46 children and adolescents (31.3%) in the non dental caries group and 101 children and adolescents (68.7%) in the dental caries group. The number of decayed missing and filled teeth (dmft) was 2.0 (4.0), and the MD score was 4.0 (2.0) points. There were 62 children and adolescents (42.2%) in the low MD scores group and 85 children and adolescents (57.8%) in the high MD scores group. There was no significant difference in MD scores between NDD children in the non dental caries group and those in the dental caries group [nondental caries group:4.0(2.0), dental caries group:4.0(2.0), Z= -0.14, P >0.05]. The MD scores and dmft exhibited increasing and then decreasing trend ( P total =0.02, P non lineary = 0.04 ). Children and adolescents with NDD in the MD high scores group had a lower number of dmft than those in the MD low scores group ( β= -2.00 , 95%CI =-3.39 to -0.62, P <0.05). However, in children and adolescents with NDD and CARS scores ≥30, the above association was insignificant ( β=-0.63, 95%CI=-0.29-0.15, P >0.05). Conclusion Children and adolescents with NDD who have dietary patterns similar to the Mediterranean diet, are found to have fewer dental caries, and this is observed among those with no or mild symptoms of autism spectrum disorder.

Objective To investigate the effects of Demodex infection on clinical symptoms,signs,and tear MMP-9 levels in patients with meibomian gland dysfunction(MGD).Methods A total of 680 patients with MGD were selected from our hospital,including 162 males and 518 females,with an average age of(45.05±15.41)years old.The patients were divided into two groups based on the presence of Demodex mite infestation:the Demodex positive group(340 cases)and the Demodex negative group(340 cases).All patients underwent evaluations using the OSDI questionnaire,SPEED questionnaire,eyelid margin alteration score,corneal fluorescein staining score,tear MMP-9 measurement,meibomian gland orifice score,meibomian gland excretion ability score,meibomian gland secretion score,meibomian gland loss score,tear film breakup time(BUT),and Schirmer I tear secretion test.The differences in these indicators between the two groups were compared.Results SPEED questionnaire score:Demodex positive group:(7.68±2.80),Demodex negative group:(6.28±1.99).There was a statistically significant difference between the two groups(t=2.582,P=0.012).Eyelid margin alteration score:Demodex positive group:(3.63±1.53),Demodex negative group:(2.85±0.77).A statistically significant difference was observed(t=2.861,P=0.006).Corneal fluorescein staining score:Demodex positive group:(2.25±1.86),Demodex negative group:(1.08±1.33).There was a statistically significant difference(t=3.247,P=0.002).Tear MMP-9 content:Demodex positive group:(30.76±43.14)ng/mL,Demodex negative group:(12.36±12.10)ng/mL.A statistically significant difference was found(t=2.598,P=0.013).No statistically significant differences were observed between the Demodex positive and negative groups in meibomian gland orifice score,meibomian gland excretion ability score,meibomian gland secretion score,meibomian gland loss score,BUT,tear secretion examination,and age comparison(P>0.05).Conclusions Demodex mite infestation in patients with MGD exhibits significant differ-ences across various clinical indicators,notably in SPEED questionnaire scores,eyelid margin alterations,corneal fluorescein staining,and tear MMP-9 levels.These changes are associated with mechanisms including inflammatory responses,cellular damage,and immune dysregulation.Demodex mite infestation may significantly influence the clinical progression of MGD by exacerbating inflammation and symptom severity,potentially playing a crucial role in disease development.

Objective To investigate the expression changes and clinical significance of serum pepsinogen(PG)and triggering receptor expressed on myeloid cells-1(TREM-1)in patients with reflux esophagitis(RE).Methods A total of 140 patients with RE who were treated from October 2021 to October 2023 were selected as the observation group,and 140 healthy adults who underwent physical examination during the same period were selected as the control group.Serum PG(PGⅠ and PGⅡ)and TREM-1 were detected by ELISA.Multivariate logistic regression was used to analyze the influencing factors of RE.Receiver operating characteristic(ROC)was used to analyze the diagnostic efficacy of serum PGⅠ,PGⅡ and TREM-1 levels for RE.Results The levels of interleukin(IL)-2,IL-6,Il-1β,PGⅡ,TREM-1 and tumor necrosis factor-α(TNF-α)in the observation group were significantly higher than those in the control group,while the level of PGⅠ was significantly lower than that in the control group(P<0.01).Serum IL-2,IL-6,IL-1β,TNF-α,PGⅡ and TREM-1 were risk factors for RE,while serum PGⅠ was a protective factor for RE(P<0.01).ROC curve analysis showed that the area under the ROC curve(AUC)of combined detection of PGⅠ,PGⅡ and TREM-1 in the diagnosis of RE was significantly higher than that of PGⅠ alone(Z=5.940,P<0.001)and PGⅡ alone(Z=6.764,P<0.001)and TREM-1 alone(Z=6.791,P<0.001).Conclusion The expression levels of serum PGⅡ and TREM-1 in patients with RE are increased,while the expression level of PGⅠ is decreased.The combined detection of the three can improve the diagnostic efficacy of RE.
