OBJECTIVE To explore the mechanism by which Gongfa Static Training regulates mitophagy through the PTEN-in-duced kinase 1(PINK1)/Parkin pathway in skeletal muscle insulin resistance in type 2 diabetes mellitus(T2DM).METHODS T2DM mouse model was established using a high-fat diet combined with streptozotocin(STZ)intraperitoneal injection.Mice were ran-domly divided into a model group,a metformin group,an aerobic exercise group,and a Gongfa Static Training group.The intervention effects of Gongfa Static Training were evaluated by measuring fasting blood glucose,Homeostatic Model Assessment of Insulin Resist-ance(HOMA-IR),glycated hemoglobin(HbA1c),lipid metabolism indicators,mitochondrial function in the gastrocnemius muscle,and the expression of PINK1 and Parkin-related genes and proteins.RESULTS Gongfa Static Training significantly reduced fasting blood glucose,HbA1c,and insulin resistance index in T2DM mice,improved lipid metabolism,and enhanced insulin sensitivity.It improved the structure and function of mitochondria in the gastrocnemius muscle by upregulating the mRNA and protein expression of PINK1 and Parkin.CONCLUSION Gongfa Static Training improves mitochondrial function and insulin resistance in the skeletal muscle of T2DM mice by regulating the PINK1/Parkin pathway.

Objective:To explore the clinical significance of skeletonized lymph node dissection of No.12 lymph nodes after neoadjuvant therapy in patients with advanced gastric cancer.Methods:For this retrospective case-cohort study we collected data from patients with advanced gastric cancer who underwent neoadjuvant chemotherapy and D2 or more extensive curative resection including No.12 lymph node dissection at the First Affiliated Hospital of Sun Yat-sen University from January, 2011 to December, 2022. Patients were divided into two groups based on whether they received skeletonized dissection of No.12 lymph nodes: 177 cases were in the skeletonized group, and 55 cases were in the nonskeletonized group. The differences of prognosis between the two groups were compared, and logistic regression models were used to analyze the factors affecting No.12 lymph node metastasis in the overall cohort and No.12b or No.12p lymph node metastasis in the skeletonized group.Results:A total of 232 patients were included, with 84 females (36.2%) and 148 males (63.8%), with an average age of 56.4±11.6 years. The proportion of female and ycT4 patients was significantly higher in the skeletonized group than in the nonskeletonized group (both P<0.05). Among all 232 patients, No. 12a metastasis occurred in 14 cases (6.0%). In the skeletonized group of 177 patients, No. 12b and No. 12p metastases were observed in 6 patients each (3.4%), and 4 patients had concurrent metastases in both No. 12b and No. 12a. The 5-year overall survival (OS) rates were 45.5% in the skeletonized group and 42.8% in the nonskeletonized group, with no statistical difference (HR=0.755, 95%CI: 0.488-1.168, P=0.580). The 5-year disease-free survival (DFS) rates were 39.8% and 41.0%, respectively, also with no statistical difference (HR=0.775, 95%CI: 0.513-1.172, P=0.584). 5-year OS for patients without No.12 lymph node metastasis was 48.8%, which was higher than the 15.9% for those with metastasis (HR=0.349, 95% CI: 0.209-0.584, P=0.003). Additionally, the 5-year DFS for those without metastasis was 44.3%, significantly higher than the 5.7% for those with metastasis (HR=0.444, 95%CI: 0.276-0.716, P<0.001). For patients without No. 12b or No. 12p lymph node metastasis, the 5-year OS was 47.6%, and the 5-year DFS was 42.3%, both of which were significantly higher than the 16.7% and 8.3% for those with No.12b or No. 12p lymph node metastasis, respectively (HR=0.353, 95%CI: 0.183-0.681, P=0.005; HR=0.457, 95%CI: 0.244-0.855, P=0.006). Multivariate analysis showed that more advanced ypN stage (OR=3.908, 95%CI:1.638-9.323, P=0.002) and tumor location in the lower stomach or whole stomach (OR=3.533, 95%CI: 1.312-9.511, P=0.012) were independent risk factors for No.12 lymph node metastasis and also for No.12b and No.12p lymph node metastasis (OR=2.426, 95%CI: 1.212-4.856, P=0.012 and OR=4.908, 95%CI:1.182-20.373, P=0.028, respectively). Conclusion:Patients with advanced gastric cancer who have more advanced ypN stage and tumor location in the lower stomach or whole stomach have a higher risk of No.12b and No.12p metastasis and thus require further skeletonized lymph node dissection of No.12.

In this study, araucarene diterpenes, characterized by a pimarene skeleton with a variably oxidized side chain at C-13, were investigated. A total of 16 araucarene diterpenoids and their derivatives were isolated from the woods of Agathis dammara, including 11 previously unreported compounds: dammaradione (1), dammarones D-G (2, 5, 14, 15), dammaric acids B-F (8-12), and dammarol (16). The structures of these new compounds were elucidated using high-resolution electrospray ionization mass spectroscopy (HR-ESI-MS) and one-dimensional/two-dimensional (1D/2D) nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR), while their absolute configurations were determined through the electronic circular dichroism (ECD) exciton chirality method and Snatzke's method. The hypoglycemic activity of all isolated compounds was evaluated using a transgenic zebrafish model, and a structure-activity relationship (SAR) analysis was conducted. Araucarone (3) and dammaric acid C (9), serving as representative compounds, demonstrated significant hypoglycemic effects on zebrafish. The primary mechanism involves the promotion of pancreatic β cell regeneration and glucose uptake. Specifically, these compounds enhance the differentiation of pancreatic endocrine precursor cells (PEP cells) into β cells in zebrafish.

Objective To establish a nomogram model for predicting clinical pregnancy rate in patients with endometriosis undergoing fresh embryo transfer.Methods We retrospectively collected the data of 464 endometriosis patients undergoing fresh embryo transfer,who were randomly divided into a training dataset(60%)and a testing dataset(40%).Using univariate analysis,multiple logistic regression analysis,and LASSO regression analysis,we identified the factors associated with the fresh transplantation pregnancy rate in these patients and developed a nomogram model for predicting the clinical pregnancy rate following fresh embryo transfer.We employed an integrated learning approach that combined GBM,XGBOOST,and MLP algorithms for optimization of the model performance through parameter adjustments.Results The clinical pregnancy rate following fresh embryo transfer was significantly influenced by female age,Gn initiation dose,number of assisted reproduction cycles,and number of embryos transferred.The variables included in the LASSO model selection included female age,FSH levels,duration and initial dose of Gn usage,number of assisted reproduction cycles,retrieved oocytes,embryos transferred,endometrial thickness on HCG day,and progesterone level on HCG day.The nomogram demonstrated an accuracy of 0.642(95%CI:0.605-0.679)in the training dataset and 0.652(95%CI:0.600-0.704)in the validation dataset.The predictive ability of the model was further improved using ensemble learning methods and achieved predicative accuracies of 0.725(95%CI:0.680-0.770)in the training dataset and 0.718(95%CI:0.675-0.761)in the validation dataset.Conclusions The established prediction model in this study can help in prediction of clinical pregnancy rates following fresh embryo transfer in patients with endometriosis.

Objective To investigate the expression of LncRNA HOXA-AS2 in gastric cancer tissues and its effect on the malig-nant biology of gastric cancer.Methods The expression levels of lncRNA HOXA-AS2 in gastric cancer tissues and gastric cancer cell lines were detected by qPCR;the effect of lncRNA HOXA-AS2 on the prognosis of gastric cancer patients was analyzed by Kaplan-Meier Plotter,an online website for bioinformatics analysis;the correlation between the expression levels of lncRNA HOXA-AS2 and the clinical and pathological characteristics of gastric cancer patients;cell lines interfering with the expression of lncRNA HOXA-AS2 were constructed,and the effects of down-regulation of lncRNA HOXA-AS2 on the proliferation ability,migration ability and invasion ability of gastric cancer cells were analyzed using CCK8,clone formation assay,scratch assay and Transwell assay.Results The expression lev-el of lncRNA HOXA-AS2 was significantly upregulated in gastric cancer tissues compared with paraneoplastic tissues;the expression lev-el of lncRNA HOXA-AS2 was significantly higher in gastric cancer cell lines compared with human normal gastric mucosal cells GES(P＜0.05);survival analysis showed that high expression of lncRNA HOXA-AS2 was associated with poor prognosis of gastric cancer patients;lncRNA HOXA-AS2 expression level correlated with gastric cancer stage,lymph node metastasis and differentiation(P＜0.05);the expression level of lncRNA HOXA-AS2 was significantly decreased in gastric cancer cells transfected with SiRNA(P＜0.05),and their cell proliferation,migration,and invasion ability were also significantly decreased(P＜0.05).Conclusion lncRNA HOXA-AS2 plays an oncogene role in gastric cancer and is associated with prognosis.Down-regulation of lncRNA HOXA-AS2 ex-pression can inhibit the proliferation,migration,and invasion ability of gastric cancer cells.

  Objective  To promote the development of high-quality health standards in China and summarize the characteristics of global health standards management systems and development processes.  Methods  We conducted a systematic search of relevant databases and the websites of standardization institutions. A descriptive method was used to analyze the basic characteristics of the standard management systems and development processes.  Results  The majority of the investigated countries and organizations primarily implement voluntary standards, with the exception of Chinese and the European Committee for Standardization that enforce compulsory standards. All countries and organizations have health standards at the national, group, and enterprise levels. In China and Japan, standards authorities are subordinate to the government, while in other countries or organizations, they operate as independent civil societies. The development process for health standards generally involves five stages: "Project/Proposal → Draft → Enquiry → Review → Publication". However, the specific steps in the development of health standards vary across different countries and organizations. Furthermore, China ranks high in the number of both standards and health standards issued, but the proportion of health standards is only 2.06%.  Conclusions  There are significant differences between China and other countries in terms of the management system and development process of health standards. To promote the management and development of high-quality health standards in China, we recommend promoting the coordination mechanism for standard development, increasing efforts to publicize standards and evaluate the implementation effect, strengthening the construction of personnel for the development of health standards, optimizing the efficiency of standard development and improving the internationalization level of health standards.
