Objective To investigate the influencing factors associated with early neurological deterioration(END)in patients with minor acute ischemic stroke(mAIS),develop a clinical prediction model for END,and identify independent risk factors for 90-day neurological functional outcomes after stroke.Methods mAIS patients admitted consecutively to the Department of Neurology,Yijishan Hospital of Wannan Medical College(the First Affiliated Hospital of Wannan Medical College),from July 2023 to July 2024 were retrospectively collected.A minor ischemic stroke was defined as acute ischemic stroke with a National Institutes of Health stroke scale(NIHSS)score≤5 on admission.Baseline,clinical,and imaging data of all mAIS patients were collected and recorded,including demographic information(age,sex),past medical history(hypertension,diabetes mellitus,hyperlipidemia,coronary heart disease,atrial fibrillation),smoking history,alcohol consumption,baseline blood pressure,pre-onset modified Rankin scale(mRS),NIHSS scores at admission and during hospitalization(24 hours,48 hours,72 hours after admission),motor component subscore of the NIHSS scores,NIHSS scores at discharge,trial of Org 10172 in acute stroke treatment(TOAST)classification,laboratory indicators(fasting blood glucose,hemoglobin A1c[HbA1c],total cholesterol,triglycerides,high-density lipoprotein,low-density lipoprotein),clinical treatment information(intravenous thrombolysis,mono antiplatelet therapy,dual antiplatelet therapy,anticoagulation therapy)and length of stay.The status of stenosis and occlusion in the culprit vessel were assessed based on imaging results.Mild-to-moderate stenosis was defined as a stenosis rate of 0％to 69％,severe stenosis as a stenosis rate of 70％to 99％,and occlusion as complete interruption of the supplying artery.END was defined as an increase in NIHSS score of ≥2 points from baseline within 72 hours after admission,combined with an increase of at least 1 point in the motor score compared to the score at admission.Prognosis was assessed via telephone follow-ups at 90-day after onset using mRS score,with an mRS score ≤ 2 indicating a favorable outcome and an mRS score＞2 indicating a poor outcome.Variables with P＜0.05 in the univariate analysis were incorporated into multivariate Logistic regression analysis to identify the independent risk factors for END in mAIS patients.A nomogram model was constructed,and calibration curves along with decision curve analysis were plotted to evaluate the model's goodness-of-fit and clinical utility.Univariate and multivariate Logistic regression analyses were performed to identify factors associated with poor 90-day functional outcome after mAIS.Results(1)A total of 826 patients were included,aged 33-94 years,with a median age of 67(57,76)years.There were 571 males and 255 females.The NIHSS score at admission ranged from 0 to 5,with a median NIHSS score at admission of 3(2,4).The NIHSS motor subscore at admission ranged from 0 to 5,with a median baseline NIHSS motor score of 2(0,2).Among them,119 patients(14.4％)were in the END group and 707 patients(85.6％)were included in the non-END group.At 90days after stroke,744 patients(90.1％)had a favorable outcome,while 82 patients(9.9％)had a poor outcome.(2)Univariate analysis showed that there were statistically significant differences between the END group and the non-END group in terms of HbA1c,fasting blood glucose,baseline NIHSS score,baseline NIHSS motor subscore,history of alcohol consumption,diabetes mellitus,culprit vessel stenosis and occlusion,and TOAST classification(all P＜0.05).Statistically significant differences were observed between the favorable outcome group and the poor outcome group in HbA1c,fasting blood glucose,incidence of END,baseline NIHSS score,discharge NIHSS score,culprit vessel stenosis and occlusion,TOAST classification,and history of alcohol consumption(all P＜0.05).(3)Multivariate Logistic regression analysis indicated that mAIS patients with severe stenosis of the culprit vessel(OR,5.88,95％CI2.32-14.91,P＜0.01),occlusion of the culprit vessel(OR,5.74,95％CI 2.25-14.62,P＜0.01),history of alcohol consumption(OR,5.59,95％CI3.41-9.17,P＜0.01),elevated HbA1c(OR,1.67,95％CI 1.35-2.08,P＜0.01),and higher baseline NIHSS motor score(OR,1.43,95％CI 1.08-1.89,P=0.012)had an increased risk of END.A higher discharge NIHSS score(OR,2.59,95％CI 1.89-3.57,P＜0.01)and the occurrence of END(OR,18.42,95％CI 5.13-66.18,P＜0.01)were associated with poor 90-day functional outcome after mAIS.(4)The nomogram model constructed based on independent risk factors of END in mAIS patients demonstrated an AUC of 0.78(95％CI 0.73-0.83)for predicting END,with a sensitivity of 0.8 and a specificity of 0.7.The model showed good calibration,and the Hosmer-Lemeshow test indicated good agreement between predicted and observed values(P=0.333).Decision curve analysis revealed that the model provided a high net benefit across a range of high-risk thresholds(0.1-0.7),suggesting its potential clinical utility.Conclusions Severe stenosis of the culprit vessel,occlusion of the culprit vessel,glycated hemoglobin levels,baseline NIHSS motor subscale scores,and history of alcohol consumption are independent risk factors for END in patients with mAIS.The nomogram model constructed based on these factors demonstrated good predictive performance.END and NIHSS scores at discharge are independent predictors of poor 90-day outcomes in patients with mAIS.

Objective:To investigate the long-term efficacy and influencing factors of transcatheter adrenal ablation in patients with primary aldosteronism (PA).Methods:This cohort study retrospectively enrolled PA patients who underwent transcatheter adrenal ablation at Daping Hospital, Army Medical University between January 2021 and December 2024. According to PASO criteria, patients were categorized into groups based on clinical outcomes (complete, partial, or no remission), biochemical outcomes (complete, partial, or no remission), and composite outcomes (complete or incomplete remission). All participants underwent 1-year follow-up, with intergroup comparisons of clinical characteristics and surgical approaches. Multivariate logistic regression models were used to identify factors influencing long-term efficacy post-transcatheter adrenal ablation in PA patients.Results:A total of 122 PA patients were enrolled, aged (47.7±11.1) years, including 55 males (45.1%). Baseline aldosterone-to-renin ratio was 0.43(0.19,0.86)(pmol·L -1)/(μU·L -1). Bilateral adrenal lesions were present in 33 cases (27.1%), while 70 (57.4%) had nodules or adenomas. Adrenal venous sampling confirmed lateralized hypersecretion in 107 patients (87.7%, left or right dominance). According to PASO criteria, 93.4% (114/122) and 95.1% (116/122) of patients achieved complete or partial remission in biochemical and clinical parameters at 1-year post-ablation, respectively. For biochemical outcomes: 40 complete, 74 partial, and 8 no remission. Patients in the partial-remission group were older than those in the no-remission group ((49.4±11.2) vs. (39.6±9.8) years), while complete-remission group had higher bilateral non-lateralized secretion rates than partial remission group (27.5% vs. 4.1%, both P<0.05). For clinical outcomes: 26 complete, 90 partial, 6 no remission. Compared to complete-remission group, partial-remission group had higher male proportion (51.1% vs. 26.9%), longer hypertension duration (4.0 (0.7, 10.0) years vs. 1.5 (0.1, 5.0) years), but lower office diastolic blood pressure ((88±11) mmHg vs. (94±12 mmHg), 1 mmHg=0.133 kPa, all P<0.05). For composite outcomes: 56 complete and 66 incomplete remission. Compared with incomplete remission group, complete remission group had lower prevalence of diabetes (8.9% vs. 22.7%) and higher proportion of bilateral non-lateralized secretion (21.4% vs. 4.6%, both P<0.05). Multivariate logistic regression identified diabetes ( OR=3.635, 95% CI 1.029-12.834, P=0.045) and lateralized secretion ( OR=9.056, 95% CI 2.039-40.212, P=0.004) as independent risk factors for poor composite outcomes after transcatheter adrenal ablation in PA patients, whereas higher office diastolic blood pressure acts as a protective factor ( OR=0.957, 95% CI 0.925-0.992, P=0.015). Conclusion:One year after transcatheter adrenal ablation, the majority of patients achieved complete or partial remission in biochemical and clinical parameters.Patients with non-lateralized adrenal hypersecretion demonstrated a higher likelihood of sustained biochemical remission and superior composite outcomes compared to those with lateralized hypersecretion.

Objective: To explore the influencing factors and pathways of suicidal ideation among children and adolescents with severe autism spectrum disorder (ASD), so as to provide references for clarifying the impact intensity and pathways of various factors on suicidal ideation in the population. Methods: A cross sectional study was conducted from June 17, 2024, to January 12, 2025, involving 96 severely affected ASD children and adolescents aged 8-18 years from Tianjin. Participants were assessed using the Puberty Development Scale (PDS), Children s Alexithymia Measure (CAM), Strengths and Difficulties Questionnaire (SDQ), and Positive and Negative Suicide Ideation (PANSI). The random forest Boruta algorithm was employed to screen core variables, and a Bayesian network model was constructed to analyze the influencing factors of suicidal ideation in children and adolescents with severe ASD. Results: Through the screening using the Boruta algorithm, the SDQ scale score, conduct problems, hyperactivity, peer relationship problems and prosocial behavior were identified as the key predictors of suicidal ideation. A Bayesian network model was established with hyperactivity as the central mediating node. The impact of hyperactivity on suicidal ideation exhibited a non linear relationship: compared to the normal state (31.6%, 68.4%), the borderline state of hyperactivity was associated with a higher probability of low risk suicidal ideation (47.1%) and a lower probability of high risk suicidal ideation (52.9%). Suicidal ideation among children and adolescents with severe ASD was closely related to hyperactivity. In the state of hyperactivity, the abnormal peer relationship (95.2%) and the abnormal prosocial behavior (77.0%) were aggravated. Conclusions Suicide ideation among children and adolescents with severe ASD is strongly associated with hyperactivity traits. It is necessary to establish a prevention and control system centered on hyperactivity intervention to reduce this risk.

Cardiovascular disease(CVD),as one of the diseases with the highest morbidity and mor-tality rates globally,has always been a focus of med-ical research.In recent years,with a deeper under-standing of the pathogenesis of CVD,novel metabol-ic drugs have demonstrated great potential in its treatment.These novel drugs regulate multiple as-pects of cardiovascular metabolism,including reduc-ing blood glucose and lipid levels,inhibiting inflam-matory responses,and protecting vascular endothe-lial cells,thereby providing new strategies for the prevention and treatment of CVD.In terms of lower-ing blood glucose levels,SGLT2 inhibitors,GLP-1 re-ceptor agonists,DPP-4 inhibitors,and Metformin,as clinically commonly used drugs,have been prov-en to be beneficial for the prevention and treat-ment of CVD,regardless of the presence or absence of diabetes.For lipid regulation,PCSK9 inhibitors and Ezetimibe,as newly developed lipid-lowering drugs,not only reduce serum low-density lipopro-tein cholesterol levels but also directly protect the cardiovascular system from damage.The develop-ment and application of these drugs have not only improved the treatment outcomes of CVD but also provided patients with more therapeutic options.

ObjectiveTo explore the interaction among root fungi of Stellaria dichotoma var. lanceolata， soil factors， and main components of medicinal materials in lithosol habitats. MethodHigh-throughput sequencing technology was employed to determine the fungal community of the root system of S. dichotoma var. lanceolata at different levels （bulk soil， rhizosphere soil， rhizoplane soil， and root interior） and the soil properties of the root system （bulk and rhizosphere）， and the relationship among the fungal community， soil properties， and the main components of medicinal materials was analyzed. ResultThe total phosphorus， available phosphorus， alkaline nitrogen， dissolved organic carbon， and soil water content in the rhizosphere soil of S. dichotoma var. lanceolata were slightly higher than those in the rhizosphere， but the difference was not significant. Ascomycota is the dominant phylum of root fungi in S. dichotoma var. lanceolata. In the progressive level of bulk-rhizosphere-rhizoplane-root interior system， although the fungal diversity gradually decreased， the abundance of Hypocreales， a new phylum （unclassified_ k_ Fungi）， Helotiales， and Natipusilales gradually increased， among which Hypocreales is the most important fungal group in the root system of S. dichotoma var. lanceolata. The structural equation model （SEM） shows that the physicochemical factors of the root-soil play an important regulatory role in the fungal community and the main components of medicinal herbs， with soil total nitrogen， alkaline nitrogen， soil water content， and pH being the main regulatory factors. Soil nitrogen content is the key to promoting the main components of the medicinal herbs， and Penicillium fungi are the key fungal group to regulate the main components of the medicinal herbs. ConclusionIt highlights that the physicochemical properties of the soil of S. dichotoma var. lanceolata play a crucial role in the fungal community and the components of medicinal materials. Hypocreales fungi in the root of S. dichotoma var. lanceolata were an important group， and Penicillium fungi had a certain role in mediating the components of medicinal materials.
